OK, got it working nicely:
case $host_os in mingw*)
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([check_win32_symlinks],[
# Links sometimes fail undetected on Mingw -
# so here we detect it and warn the user
for FILE in "$CONFIG_LINKS"
The quotes in the line above are spurious and need to be removed - they inhibit expansion of the variable into words, which is needed. I have checked that with the quotes removed the macro works correctly.

Applied.
