That comes from xine-lib's xine.m4.  Your fix seems good enough at least for 
packages needing a build right now IMO, but I also think things could be made 
quite a bit more robust upstream - candidate patch added to 
http://bugs.xine-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41

Thanks for reporting the issue upstream!
