use (admittedly obsolete) synonym "AM_CONFIG_HEADER" for "AC_CONFIG_HEADER" to please (admittedly outdated) automake 1.6.3 on Darwin
Is this really a good idea?
if we want to compile on Darwin 8.8 with the default automake 1.6.3: yes.
I think we should not want this. We should not waste our time and energy on supporting legacy configurations. This is a pure development tool, hence we can (and should) assume it is up-to-date. On OSX in particular there are a few solutions to get around these limitations. One of these solutions is built by myself, initially only for OSX, but currently also working on Solaris (Gentoo/Alt:Prefix).
