Well, all but one - "configure.in" has two calls to define PLUGIN_DIR,
one to define it as a string and one to define it as NULL (if plugins
aren't enabled).

At least with autoconf 2.13, if the second one doesn't have a comment,
autogen.sh produces a complaint and doesn't complete.

It might be that we can eliminate the second call.  If not, I'll see
whether the newer autoconf at work can handle two calls to define it,
both with comments.
