autoconf not namespace clean

autoconf-2.57 doesn't let me define a macro named FOO.

================ configure.in ================
AC_INIT

AC_DEFUN([FOO], [
  echo coucou
])

FOO

AC_OUTPUT
===============================================

$ autoconf
$ ./configure
coucou
configure: creating ./config.status
./config.status: line 53: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
./config.status: line 53: `; unset'

Quite confusing, because the default macro names for many users are
FOO, BAR, TEST etc.
