Details - Dumux currently places all headers in $DUNE_MODULE_ROOT/dumux/. Since 
the DUNE_CHECK_MODULES expects all headers to be placed in the module's 
'dune/' subdirectory, the current solution used by Dumux is to completely 
replace the DUNE_CHECK_MODULES autoconf macro with a custom version. Since, 
IMHO, this is a pretty bad hack, it would be nice if the DUNE build
system would not force all modules to be called 'dune-$FOO'. The attached 
patch does just this. 


In order to not having to change existing dune-$FOO.m4 files, the patch first
looks whether the path given as an argument to DUNE_CHECK_MODULES is relative to the 
$MODULE_ROOT/dune directory (which is the current behavior), if the header
is not found there, it checks whether the path is relative to $MODULE_ROOT.

N.B. this patch is for the 2.1 branch, use it at your own risk for
trunk. It would be great if it could be also included in the 2.1
branch as it would allow us at IWS to drop the currently used hack 
for our next release.
