Of course, the other approach that would work would be to change
autoconf to build ac_configure_args in a different way.  For example,
it could do something like
  ac_configure_args="${ac_configure_args} ACARGSPLITTER ${arg}"
(note no quoting) and then do
  arg=
  for a in ${ac_configure_args}; do
    if test ${a} != ACARGSPLITTER; then
      arg="${arg} ${a}"
    else
      # process ${arg}
      arg=
    fi
  done
