* doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Mention POSIX

1003.1-2001's requirements for CDPATH.  Give a simpler workaround
for the CDPATH problem.  Document PWD.
(Limitations of Builtins): Document the problem that "cd $foo" and
"ls $foo" may refer to different directories in shells conforming
to POSIX 1003.1-2001.  Use PS1 rather than CDPATH for "unset"
example, since the old example is now out of date.

* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Reject FOO if "cd
FOO" and "ls FOO" talk about different directories; this catches
problems when POSIX 1003.1-2001 "cd" fails due to symlink
spaghetti.

* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Use AS_UNSET instead
of rolling our own unset.
(_AS_PREPARE): $as_unset CDPATH instead of AS_UNSETting it, since
in practice we needn't worry about CDPATH if unset doesn't work.

* Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, bin/Makefile.in,
config/Makefile.in, doc/Makefile.in, lib/Makefile.in,
lib/Autom4te/Makefile.in, lib/autoconf/Makefile.in,
lib/autoscan/Makefile.in, lib/autotest/Makefile.in,
lib/emacs/Makefile.in, lib/m4sugar/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in,
tests/Makefile.in: Regenerate with Automake 1.6.3.

* config/config.guess, config/config.sub, config/mkinstalldirs:
Update.

* configure: Regenerate with self.
