Oh, you're right. Sorry. The bug is in both 2.13 and 2.50.

Not at all. I only explained why I use that particular feature, namely
"dnl" comments.

This is a bug report. I have noticed that in a particular context,
namely in an AC_OUTPUT argument, a "dnl" comment is not, as stated in
the autoconf manual, elided, but instead it appears in the configure
script, where it will likely cause an error message.
