there is a surprising number of useful macros in the largely unknown autoconf-archive package. i tend to browse that when i need something new to see if someone hasnt already coded up what i wanted. downside is that the quality can sometimes vary significantly across macros. so a review of the code you're importing should be done (ignoring the general aspect of this statement). upside is that the maintainer is usually pretty responsive in merging changes. -mike
