Gnulib has a module 'supersede', for atomically superseding an output file. But it's written in C, not Perl. So, probably, it's not useful here?

This patch comes from debian and was discussed in this thread but never merged:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2008-08/msg00032.html

Comments from Zack W.

> I read the thread myself, and I think we should probably do something like this patch, but I see several problems with both versions, and I want to check whether the problem has been obviated by changes to the autom4te infrastructure since 2008.  Please file a bug in savannah for this one, linking to the thread.
