This isn't sufficient (and also, arg1 is not namespace-clean):
cat >configure.ac <<'END'
# As long as we aren't ready to upgrade to autoconf 2.60,
# make sure that newer M4 will still use LIFO order:
m4_define([m4_arg1], [$1])dnl
m4_define([m4_wrap],
[m4_if([_$0_text],
[m4_define([_$0_text], [$1]m4_defn([_$0_text]))],
[m4_builtin([m4wrap],
[m4_arg1(m4_defn([_$0_text])m4_undefine([_$0_text]))])dnl
m4_define([_$0_text], [$1])])])dnl
AC_INIT
AC_OUTPUT
END
