I should have specified $config_aux_dir rather than AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR in the 
last reference of
this explanation, as the code sets $config_aux_dir to one of the default 
locations (it could be
'.', '..', or '../..', depending on where the first config file is found) and 
_this_ is what the
code which now switches on $config_aux_dir_set_in_configure_in is avoiding.  If 
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR
was used that code will use the specified value.  Hence the variable name.
