You're right, of course.  What I ment was that we can avoid the first
changequote(,), assuming we know what the quotes are in advance, and
since we set the quotes to [] afterwards we can safely assume they
are [] beforehand (or the client's use of the macro wouldn't make that
much sense IMO).

This then:
[changequote(-=<{(,)}>=-)$1-=<{()}>=-changequote([,])])

It would be nice to have a couple of m4 push/popquote macros...
