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)
