Set autotools to error/sleep settings so that they are not run when being errornously triggered. Likewise make libtool-silent when libtool has been used.

I am using the macro quite a lot since some automake versions had the tendency to try to rerun some autotools on a mere make even when not quite in --maintainer-mode. That is very annoying. Likewise, a user who installs from source does not want to see doubled compiler messages.

I did not put an AC-REQUIRE(MAINTAINER_MODE) in here - should I?
