The quoting problem is with you, not with AM_COND_IF. This should be
written:
AS_IF([test -x /bin],
[AM_COND_IF([CONDITION],,
[AC_MSG_ERROR([comma separated, message])
])
])
Remember the quoting rule of thumb - every argument to a macro should be
inside a single layer of quotes unless you really want the macro
expanded first (which is rare)
