I have no idea whether it's hard to do.
Worst case, we can break AC_DEFUNed macros into two macros, one with
the actual name, that contains the prologue and the epilogue and,
between them, an invocation of another macro, containing the actual
code. Then, hooking something before or after a pro/epi macro would
be just a matter of pre/appending the code to this other macro.

Point taken. We have to be careful not to break it. So far, it's
worked moderately well. The good thing is that, when they break,
people notice it immediately.
