I thought Bryce's plan was to have one master debug flag (a constant)
and then use properties for the individual things.
if (Configuration.DEBUG && Boolean.getBoolean ("gnu.debug.this"))
{
...
}

Sure. You can make your own autoconf macro, something like
(untested):
dnl usage: DEBUG(variable, shell code)
AC_DEFUN([DEBUG],[
$1=false
if $2; then
$1=true
fi
AC_SUBST([$1])
])
Then you can do `DEBUG(ALWAYS, true)' or whatever.
configure.in isn't just shell code, it has m4 preprocessing as well...
