This is what the code generated by autoconf should look like - the 
original line above reads as
namespace=`echo $macroname | tr [:upper:] [:lower:]`
in the configure script that is enclosed with 1.32.0 so I - not being 
anywhere near an autoconf expert - assumed that the additional [] get 
stripped out. Can someone please either check or confirm this?
