Actually, it's acinclude.m4 - aclocal.m4 is built from acinclude.m4.

 for checking for snmp because it
seems that there can be problems on RH Linux if recent versions of OpenSSL
are installed because the DES routines wanted by ucd-snmp are now in a
Kerberos5 compat libaray.

It seems that the best way to do this is to add more tests to the macro
that looks for SNMP libs etc in aclocal.m4.

Yes - it should, in addition to checking whether you need -lkstat, check whether you need -lcrypto and/or the Kerberos5 library.
