dnl Paths.
dnl
dnl _m4_api is the path to any API references.  It's set to C++ if building
dnl the C++ API, and to C if building the C API or sections shared by all
dnl APIs, for example, the Reference Guide.
dnl
dnl _m4_ipath is the path to the index file we're building.  It's set to the
dnl real API if we're building one, and to an everything-else file, if we're
dnl not.
