No, I let m4 do that for me.

More to the point.  It used to be the case that autoconf (say 2.13)
would embed line number information like this:

#line 1775 "configure"

and those numbers would change if you added or removed code in
configure.in.  Evidently I haven't done a diff on configure in over 5
years, but the memory of that pain is still fresh. :-)
