Quoted m4_normalize will expand and change its argument later in the macro call when M4 is processing the *.m4 sources. Without quotes the already normalized string is passed to the macro directly. In these specific cases generated configure script is the same. This is more for consistency to have this synced and not repeat the pattern too much in the future when copy/pasting. Note, that many AC_* macros require similar behavior already (for example, AC_CHECK_FUNCS.)
