[gentoo-dev] death to underquoted M4 definitions

Fellow devs,

I'd like to propose a new function for eutils.eclass that fixes m4 files so
that aclocal doesn't produce those annoying underquoted definition warnings
when invoked.

fix_underquoted_m4defs() {
	local m4
	for m4 in $(find ${S} -name '*.m4*' -type f) ; do
		[[ ${m4} == *aclocal.m4 || ${m4} == *acinclude.m4 ]] && \
			continue
		sed -i \
	's|^\(.*AC_DEFUN(\)\([^[:punct:]][[:print:]]\+\),\(.*\)$|\1[\2],\3|g' \
		${m4}
	done
}

ebuilds that install m4's with underquoted defs (there's quite a few) can then
just call this in src_unpack (until fixed upstream of course).

Comments?
