[PATCH v2 3/3] AX_CVS,AX_DIST_MSI: Rewritten to use AX_ADD_AM_MACRO_STATIC.

These changes have not been tested very well since I don't have the software setup to use either one. It's also worth mentioning that AX_DIST_MSI appears to use GNU Make syntax which will cause Automake to complain unless portability warnings are disabled. Please feel free to modify this patch an
