Agreed, that it is in need of some cleanup. One of the ideas I've thought
about is to split up the configure.ac script into a set of macros since 
the main file is faaaar to large now eg in the m4/ directory we could have

   check-qemu.m4
   check-xen.m4
   check-storage.m4
   check-...
   ...etc..

.. one file for each logically indepdant block of m4 code from configure.ac
Then, in the configure.ac file we'd just end up with a set of single line
calls into these files loooking like

  LIBVIRT_CHECK_QEMU
  LIBVIRT_CHECK_XEN
  LIBVIRT_CHECK_STORAGE
  ....

this should make it much easier to follow what's going on in the configure.ac
script

Regards,
Daniel
