The fine documentation (cf/README) says:
------------------------------------------------------------
One word of warning:  M4 macros are expanded even in lines that appear
to be comments.  For example, if you have

        # See FEATURE(`foo') above

it will not do what you expect, because the FEATURE(`foo') will be
expanded.  This also applies to ....
------------------------------------------------------------

Place dnl at the begin:

dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet, Port=465, Name=MTA-SSL, M=s')

See m4(1)
