Mac OS X autoconf changes, this is

[Peter O'Gorman]

I want to put this into configure.in, this is a big hack, but there is  
no way that libtool would accept this as a patch, because it is just  
plain wrong for most software, but is required for gnucash on macos...  
is this acceptable, is there a "better way"?
