that's a different sitation then my '#' comments in configure.ac.

aclocal.m4 is processed for macro definitions only; the actual
expansion of the file goes to diversion(-1), which is m4 equivalent
of /dev/null.

Consequently, all the '#' comments in aclocal.m4, which are outside
the macro definitions, are just ignored.

OTOH, the '#' comments inside AC_DEFUNs in aclocal.m4 become part of
the defined macro and ultimately go to the configure script.

Have a nice day,
        Stepan
