 Sadly, most package authors ignore the warnings, and as there are too 
 many to fix them individually, I would suggest that we automatically 
 patch these files somewhere between the post-extract and pre-install phases.
 
 I patched all of my files successfully using this:
 
 sedexpr='s/^AC_DEFUN(\([A-Za-z_0-9][A-Za-z_0-9]*\),/AC_DEFUN([\1],/'
 for i in "$@"; do
    sed "${sedexpr}" "$i"
 done
