That was done in a patch by Zack Weinberg installed into Autoconf master about
an hour ago. See:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/commit/?id=3b8f293ec21062c55fe2835be6c8af7d58dfe0af
This patch should appear in Autoconf 2.70. However, something like the trivial
patch I proposed to GMP configure.ac in
<https://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2020-November/004947.html> is still
needed, as current GMP does not conform even to the revised Autoconf documentation.
