CHECK THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM IN 2.63 BEFORE SENDING

The following text occurs in the manual:

     Just make sure the columns line up in `configure --help'.
     Avoid tabs in the help string.  You'll need to enclose the help
     string in `[' and `]' in order to produce the leading blanks.

     You should format your HELP-STRING with the macro `AS_HELP_STRING'
     (*note Pretty Help Strings::).

I suggest that the first paragraph (which is actually part of a paragraph) be deleted, as it is superceded by the second paragraph.
