but I'd like to add a clarification:

The backward compatible behaviour presents an inconsistency between
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS on one side and AC_CONFIG_{FILES,HEADERS,LINKS} on
another side.

As soon as this inconsistency causes some real problems, I'll be ready to
sacrifice the bacward compatibility.

So I'd still suggest to remove the extra pair of quotes.

Have a nice day,
