Comment (by Hello71):

 Replying to [comment:9 catalyst]:
 > * maybe `pwd` should be `pwd -P || pwd`, because bash will retain
 symbolic link path components by default unless `set -o physical` is in
 effect. (The `|| pwd` is in case we're running on a shell that's too old
 to support `pwd -P`.)

 either `pwd` works, and just use it, or it doesn't work, and we need to
 pull in a real realpath. in this case, it should work fine, so just use
 `pwd`.

 > Probably not for a bugfix (maybe a separate ticket):
 > * using `dnl` for comments prevents them from appearing in the generated
 configure script; maybe these should be `#` comments instead. (I think
 it's OK to match surrounding style for now.)

 doesn't really matter, configure scripts are utterly unreadable anyways.
