Well, since the patch is endorsed by an Autoconf author (namely, you :)
I reckon we can only win here, concerning interface changes.

We should try to audit libtool for use of undocumented Autoconf features, and where reasonable submit documentation patches to the Autoconf folks.

m4sugar.m4 at least should have a documented API that libtool and others can use...

Cheers,
        Gary.
