Or, more precisely, the macro name passed as the first argument to
AC_REQUIRE is a complete macro name (even if it includes ()), and the only
way to pass arguments to a macro via AC_REQUIRE is to use the two-argument
form of AC_REQUIRE.  However, you then run the risk of whether the macro
will be called with your argument, compared to your AC_REQUIRE being a
no-op because another location already required it without an argument.
So in general, AC_REQUIRE only makes sense for macros that don't use
arguments.
