** AC_PROG_INSTALL
This test should be extended to check that install supports the GNU
Install syntax: install FILES... DIR. This will relieve everybody
form having to use mkinstalldirs to create the directories, as install
does it itself. install-sh is already handling this case. This also
makes it simple not to create the directories where nothing will be
installed because of configuration options, which is next to
impossible using the current setting.
In other words: everything is ready (install-sh and Automake), we just
need a good reimplementation of AC_PROG_INSTALL.
** --target & AC_ARG_PROGRAM
Shouldn't *any* `program' be installed as `$target_alias-program' even
if AC_ARG_PROGRAM is not called? That would be much more predictable.

** AU_DEFUN
The section for old macros is not completely up to date. For
instance, there is still AM_PROG_LIBTOOL. Anyway, since autoupdate
takes care of them, it is no longer the role of Automake to handle
this. Most should be removed.
