0fa2ad4e0c * tests/Makefile.am (all-local): Remove. It wastes time to have
testsuite rebuilt each time an ac*.m4 file changes.  It is enough
to build it for each `make check'.

2e59cf5180 Provide a means to specify more Copyright information in

9a9e3dacd2 Support absolute DOS-style paths.
Any character before the colon is accepted because network drives
can be assigned characters outside the [a-zA-Z] range. DOS-style
relative paths (?:foo/bar) are also considered absolute for
Autoconf's purposes since the path '../?:foo/bar' is invalid.

* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Treat DOS-style paths (?:*') as
absolute.
(AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS): Likewise.
(AC_PATH_PROG): Make pattern for matching DOS-style paths the same
as that used in AC_OUTPUT_FILES and AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS.

7a628f5092 The empty regexp cannot be portably used in egrep's alternation.
For instance with Digital Unix v5.0:
   > echo "foo"  | egrep -e "^(|foo|bar)$"

   |foo
   > echo "|bar" | egrep -e "^(|foo|bar)$"
   > echo "bar"  | egrep -e "^(|foo|bar)$"
