Why? It looks correct to me.

$ ./configure
[...]
configure: Default --exec-prefix detected.
configure:   --bindir defaults to /bin
configure:   --sbindir defaults to /sbin
configure:   --libdir defaults to /lib
configure:   --localstatedir defaults to /run
[...]

The comment was a bit mysterious to me, so I tried to find what you
meant by fragility. The

http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xar/xar-28/xar/configure.ac

has following

dnl Define cpp macros in CPPFLAGS, rather than doing AC_DEFINE(macro), since the
dnl definitions need to be seen before and headers are included, which is a pain
dnl to make happen otherwise.

which seem to match what you meant. I changed the line to be C
preprocessor definition, and added you as patch CC. Benno, I added you
to swapon patches CC as well. The changes are in my git.

git://github.com/kerolasa/lelux-utiliteetit.git varrun-swapon

AFAIK the last thing to sort out before merge is the lsblk & swapon
device size difference. Either I did something silly, or there is some
sort of issue somewhere.
