You're right, this is too fragile. I've pushed an alternative that
doesn't bother with the warning. If you specify both --docdir and
--with-docdir, you get --with-docdir. But either one on its own should
work, and the autoconf code is simple. I don't actually have a
pre-2.60 version to test with though.
