+# lt_append(MACRO-NAME, STRING, [SEPARATOR])
+# ------------------------------------------
+# Redefine MACRO-NAME to hold its former content plus `SEPARATOR'`STRING'.
+# Note that neither SEPARATOR nor STRING are expanded. No SEPARATOR is
+# output if MACRO-NAME was previously undefined (different than defined
+# and empty).
+# This macro is needed until we can rely on Autoconf 2.62, since earlier
+# versions of m4 mistakenly expanded SEPARATOR.
