Well, the documentation is not exact, but the difference is small.
But if you arrange that $U is empty, all works.

Annyway...

I looked at the sources.  AC_LIBOBJ really does what the documentation
says, but then _AC_LIBOBJS_NORMALIZE is called from AC_OUTPUT and it
reformats the contents of the variable.

So one way to fix it is to kill this macro:

define([_AC_LIBOBJS_NORMALIZE],[])
AC_OUTPUT

or to revert it's work somehow:

save_LIBOBJS=$LIB@&address@hidden
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE([[LIB@&address@hidden)
AC_OUTPUT

Have a nice day,
