not all of them. This fixes 1. the fact that when testing
Autoconf there are many many config.log, 2. the incorrect use of
top_srcdir to find config.log.
Don't mix the detailed output of failed test with the summary of
failures. Rather, append detailed log afterwards.

testsuite.log instead of re-running the test verbosely.
Adapt documentation. Update NEWS to signal possible bad
interactions between -x and experr.
seperator with m4_append_uniq(). It doesn't work.
(AT_CLEANUP): Add `;' to end of at_help_all.
(AT_INIT): Allow --keywords to be specified more than once. When
grepping $at_help_all for keywords, use the field and keyword
seperators to ensure a complete keyword match. Alter at_prev handling
to support the new --keywords behavior.
Fixes the `AC_ARG_VAR' test failures.

Create at_test_all by a series of assignments,
not by a single assignment of a long string. The latter causes ksh
version 11/16/88g to silently misbehave on OpenServer 5.0.6a,
presumably because of a buffer overrun.
