Instead of this, just put:

	#undef PACKAGE
	#undef VERSION

into acconfig.h.  The correct values will be put into config.h by
configure.


I agree that you shouldn't have to put anything into acconfig.h for
this.  However, making this work requires an extension to autoconf.

I've heard rumors that there is another new autoconf maintainer.  This
feature is on my list of things to ask him to implement.
