When the Autoconf folks decide to remove it, we could revisit this issue and decide whether we can also use it, depending on what system still have problems with it at that time. Btw, the Autoconf manual here matters because the Gnu Coding Standards document points to it as the "canonical" source of portability issues that GNU projects should consider.
