+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_PREPEND_FLAG(FLAG, [FLAGS-VARIABLE])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   FLAG is added to the front of the FLAGS-VARIABLE shell variable, with a
+#   space added in between.
+#
+#   If FLAGS-VARIABLE is not specified, the current language's flags (e.g.
+#   CFLAGS) is used.  FLAGS-VARIABLE is not changed if it already contains
+#   FLAG.  If FLAGS-VARIABLE is unset in the shell, it is set to exactly
+#   FLAG.
+#
+#   NOTE: Implementation based on AX_APPEND_FLAG.
