I see that this check is repeated all over the place. I suggest that you create 
a new `TYPE` for this. I suggest calling it `identifier`. Then you replace 
`TYPE: string` with `TYPE: identifier` in all places where we check that the 
value is non-empty and contains only printable characters. The type itself is 
declared in line 692 in util.m4 (and documented on line 582). Then you need to 
add a type checking method:

AC_DEFUN([UTIL_CHECK_TYPE_identifier],
[
  # Check that the argument is non-empty and only contains printable characters
  if test "x$1" = x; then
    FAILURE="Value cannot be empty"
  elif [ ! [[ $1 =~ ^[[:print:]]*$ ]] ]; then
    FAILURE="Value contains non-printing characters: $1"
  fi
])
