Hi.  Having just upgraded to autoconf 2.50, autoconf now breaks when trying 
to build KDE modules.

After throwing this around debian-devel a little, it seems the problem may be 
a bug in admin/acinclude.m4.in.

The error one gets looks similar to:

./aclocal.m4:606: error: m4_defn: undefined: _m4_divert_diversion
aclang.m4:173: AC_LANG_RESTORE is expanded from...
./aclocal.m4:606: the top level

The suggestion on debian-devel is that it's a problem with K_PATH_X; see the 
snippet attached below.

Ben.

There seems to be a bug in the definition of the K_PATH_X macro in
acinclude.m4.  The definition seems to be missing a few key
parentheses -- much of it is outside the AC_DEFUN.  No wonder the
problem.
