Patched alsa.m4 in Debian breaks autoreconf of alsa-utils



Hi,

I discovered a problem with alsa.m4 in libasound2-dev when I tried to
run autoreconf on a project (ld10k1) that uses ALSA. The configuration
needed to be modified in order to compile on Debian sid. I added
ALSA_CFLAG and ALSA_LIBS to the CFLAG and LIBS variable in Makefile.am
for the program targets.

At least one Debian packages have the same problem. Compilation of
alsa-utils fails after an autoreconf. I suppose some other packages
that use ALSA are affected.

Is this a bug in a Debian package that I should report? And in which
package, alsa-utils or libasound2-dev? 

At least I think the diversity from the upstream version of alsa.m4
should be documented somewhere. Not only in the source package in
the patch itself and in the bug report (#208883), but also in for example
README.Debian.
