AX_DIRNAME(PATHNAME)
Parts of the implementation have been taken from AS_DIRNAME from the main autoconf package in generation 2.5x. However, we do only use "sed" to cut out the dirname, and we do additionally clean up some dir/.. parts in the resulting pattern.
this macro may be used in autoconf 2.13 scripts as well.
