The code at http://ac-archive.sf.net/Miscellaneous/ac_subst_dir.html
says:
AC_DEFUN([AC_SUBST_DIR], [
ifelse($2, , $1, $1="[$]$2")
$1=`(
test "x$prefix" = xNONE && prefix="$ac_default_prefix"
test "x$exec_prefix" = xNONE && exec_prefix="${prefix}"
eval echo \""[$]$1"\"
)`
AC_SUBST($1)
])
Try this instead:
AC_DEFUN([AC_SUBST_DIR], [
ifelse($2,,,$1="[$]$2")
$1=`(
test "x$prefix" = xNONE && prefix="$ac_default_prefix"
test "x$exec_prefix" = xNONE && exec_prefix="${prefix}"
eval echo \""[$]$1"\"
)`
AC_SUBST($1)
])
