+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+# AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED(MACRO)
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+# AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED is a simple helper for making sure other macros have
+# been defined and thus are available for use. This avoids random issues
+# where a macro isn't expanded. Instead the configure script emits a
+# non-fatal:
+#
+# ./configure: line 1673: AX_CFLAGS_WARN_ALL: command not found
+#
+# It's like AC_REQUIRE except it doesn't expand the required macro.
+#
+# Here's an example:
+#
+# AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED([AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG])
