AC_HELP_STRING is an autoconf macro, so it's not just configure.ac.
It could also be any of the .m4 files: aciclude.m4, aclocal.m4, etc.

I didn't realize that these files weren't already ARI'ed. If it's too
much trouble, then we don't have to add a rule for this. It looks like
it would be very easy to fix any regression when the macro disappears,
so reintroducing it wouldn't be really all that harmful.

So I'm fine either way: We can decide to start checking the autoconf
files or not.
