Description:

When building dbus (During the prepare() step), build fails with an error message "Unexpanded AX_ macro found...." (See attached error_msg.txt for full output.).

Additional info:

* Full output of build is in the attached file under error_msg.txt
* This error seems to be plaguing Gentoo as well, see https://bugs.gentoo.org/674830
* autoconf version is 2.69
* dbus version is 1.12.12
* Build fails during the prepare() step as stated above.
* dbus PKGBUILD is here: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/dbus

Steps to reproduce:

1. Grab dbus PKGBUILD.
2. Change directory into the dbus package.
3. Run makepkg.
$> makepkg --syncdeps --skippgp
4. Error should present itself within a couple of seconds.

This has been fixed upstream in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/commit/6ef67cff6ba26645f9cbe23ffb401f3d49a66429

I see no need to rebuild the package; this can wait until the next dbus release.
