For example like this (untested):

AC_ARG_WITH([module],
	    [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-module-ID=PATH,PRIORITY,SHARE[[,COMMAND LINE]]],
			    [add a module])])

If you need non-nested brackets, you can still use quadrigraphs,
see 'info Autoconf Quadrigraphs'.

This breaks if the user of your configure script does
  some_var="let's fool configure:
with_module_foo=bar"
  export some_var
  ./configure

This code does not necessarily execute in a subshell, so you need to
save and restore IFS here, for example like this:

  save_IFS=$IFS &&
  IFS=, &&
  read m f p s c &&
  IFS=$save_IFS &&

This pair of brackets looks underquoted, too.
