The reason for this is that if there are two AC_DEFINE() macros for one 
variable both will show up in config.h. As it is a redefinition of a previous 
value the compiler will complain about it on every invocation. Thus, I think it 
is better to have all defines where they need to be, although I can understand 
your concerns regarding comprehnsability of the configure scripts.
Maybe autoconf offers a way to set a default value for a variable, then I'd 
suggest using it, but I'm not too deep into it...
Thanks for reviewing it!
