To me, it seems like it would be reasonable for aclocal to create the "m4" directory if it is being asked to copy files into it, that is, if aclocal is being invoked with --install. But autoreconf as far as I can tell never invokes aclocal with --install, so this would not help. Actually, I am now a little confused. If your package does not have any of its own M4 files in m4/, and it does not use libtoolize, and it does not expect --install to be used with aclocal, then where are the files in m4/ eventually coming from? Perhaps I just misunderstand (sometimes the autotools still catch me by surprise after many years). -- "Note that nobody reads every post in linux-kernel.
