haven't tried, and i'd rather not reinsall a lot of machinery
just because i don't understand what is wrong in the .ac file.

FWIW this is my major concern with auto* tools - more often than

happens there, and the result tends to be unmanageable.

FWIW this cut&paste programming approach is also giving us (or at
least me) a lot of work to try and clean up asterisk sources.
