The ./configure raw code shows that the autoconf people use [:] in their
own run-time test macros. Our ones with just [] expand into that error
message. But changing ours to [:], or in some cases a nice local message
seems to remove the auto-warnings.

I *think* this will remove the need for such pre-seeding.

The cf_gen remains a problem though. I really think we should go back to
having that as a perl script. All its doing is text-manipulation or
arrays during build and the code needed to switch build-hosts underneath
automake so it can run is not trivial.
