* lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Drop the

initialization of `ac_cv_exeext', do not override it if it was
already set, unless it was set to `no', for compatibility with
Autoconf-2.13, and comment this.
Do not export `ac_cv_exeext', Libtool hasn't needed this for years.
(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Likewise, do not export it.
(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_WORKS, _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS): Typos.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Compilers and Preprocessors) <EXEEXT>:
Document that this test may be overridden by setting
`ac_cv_exeext'.
