acx_pthread.m4 license (for use in a multi-threaded udev daemon)

Hi Steven

I'd like to use your pthread autoconf macro in udev, which is a GPL2
project.  I'm fuzzy on the licensing though - GPL3 with the "autoconf
exception".  I'm not doing anything odd, just adding a copy of your
macro file and referencing it from configure.ac.  Can you confirm that's
ok for distribution?

The "autoconf exception" says it's fine to distribute the auto-generated
configure script.  And I assume it's alright to distribute
"acx_pthread.m4" alongside udev, as an aggregate.  So all I'm missing is
what happens to configure.ac when I use the pthread macro in it.

Thanks for your time

Alan
