Hi Martin,

and this would be one of the wrongest ways (considering the portability 
to other architectures and newer admin/-frameworks)...

Please consider acinclude.m4.in as read-only.
This is the interface for KDE to implement the building of your binary 
to newer platforms.

If you would distribute your project as a tarball and you have patched 
acinclude.m4.in the user doesn't have the possibility to update the 
framework to a newer one, without doing the needed patches.

One of the targets of this automake/autoconf stuff is to make your 
project compilable on the most distributions w/o changing your sources code.

To support this the KDE guys (especially Stephan Coolow) need a defined 
interface and this is acinclude.m4.in.

That's what the IMPORTANT NOTE inside acinclude.m4.in tries to say:
----------------snip-------------
dnl IMPORTANT NOTE:
dnl Please do not modify this file unless you expect your modifications 
to be
dnl carried into every other module in the repository. If you decide 
that you
dnl really want to modify it, contact coolo at kde.org mentioning that you have
dnl and that the modified file should be committed to every module.
dnl
dnl Single-module modifications are best placed in configure.in for kdelibs
dnl and kdebase or configure.in.in if present.

-----------------snap--------------

Ciao

Walter
