I solved all my problems by adding this line to /etc/profile:
    export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal"
Then I could use stuff included in both /usr/share/aclocal AND 
/usr/local/share/aclocal without a problm.  IMHO, this is a better
solution, since it will make it easy to blow away /usr/local/share/aclocal
without screwing up your system...
