I looked at that bug report, you note there that you don't know where
the upstream is. I did some digging. It used to be in Automake until
it was removed with commit f68b27844f5eb2566930fb8506eb0af1fdded718:
<https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/automake.git/commit/?h=experimental/ac-config-macro-dir-simplify&id=f68b27844f5eb2566930fb8506eb0af1fdded718>.

The commit message says that its now part of some other place, and the
thread in <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2023-11/msg00036.html>
mentions people wanted to get it into Guile, I guess it fell through.
I might make a PR about it but first I'll try to incorporate your
fixes to it.
