Follow-up Comment #1:
We made $ac_aux_dir_candidates a $PATH_SEPARATOR separated list because it
could potentially reference the build directory, whose name is allowed to
contain whitespace (see automake/m4/sanity.m4). It'd be a little weird but
it's not out of the question.
I'm not opposed to changing it back to a whitespace-separated list but first I
need to understand why you have PATH_SEPARATOR=: on a Windows-based system. It
should always be ; on systems that use drive letters, precisely because drive
letters are set off from the rest of the path with a colon. Maybe the real
bug here is that _AS_PATH_SEPARATOR_PREPARE isn't giving the right answer.
