aclocal invocation, as Gettext macros might not be visible to
aclocal.
Instead of blindly running autopoint, scan configure.ac (not the
traces) for AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION uses, as autopoint does.

* lib/autoconf/autoconf.m4: Include it.
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4: Use AN_FUNCTION for all the functions
that were listed in the original autoscan.list.
* lib/autoconf/headers.m4: Similarly with headers.
* lib/freeze.mk (autoconf_m4f_dependencies): Add autoscan.m4.
(.m4.m4f): Don't pass --prepend-include, since that's done by
tests/autom4te itself.
* lib/autoscan/Makefile.am: Include freeze.mk.
(autoscan.list): New target --this file is no longer a source.
(autoscan.pre): New file.
(&xsystem): Use WIFEXITED and WEXITSTATUS instead of decoding $? by
hand, which is not portable.
(&error): New.
* bin/autom4te.in: Use them.
Use &error instead of die.
* tests/m4sugar.at (m4_warn, m4_require: circular dependencies):
Adjust.
bin/autoupdate.in, bin/ifnames.in, lib/Autom4te/General.pm,
lib/Autom4te/Struct.pm, lib/Autom4te/XFile.pm: Add local variables
so that Emacs setups GNU style for perl-mode and cperl-mode.
workaround for ${1+"$@"}.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Shell Substitutions): Explain it.
From Oliver Kiddle and Peter Stephenson.
Have M4sh perform minimal shell sanitizing.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.at (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Split the `_AS_PREPARE_*'
part into...
(_AS_PREPARE): this new macro.
(AS_PREPARE): New.
(AS_INIT): Invoke AS_SHELL_SANITIZE.
* tests/m4sh.at (AT_DATA_LINENO): Use _AS_PREPARE.
Adjust Autoconf and Autotest.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): Don't invoke
AS_SHELL_SANITIZE, AS_INIT did it, but invoke AS_PREPARE.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Likewise.
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS):
Invoke _AS_PREPARE (not AS_PREPARE) in addition to
AS_SHELL_SANITIZE.
Use this M4sh to generate Autoconf's shell scripts.
* tests/wrapsh.as: New, precursor of wrapsh.in.
* tests/Makefile.am: Include lib/freeze.mk to get the dependencies
on Autotest and M4sh.
($(TESTSUITE)): Use $(autotest_m4f_dependencies).
(wrapsh.in): New target.
* bin/autoconf.as: New, precursor of autoconf.in.
(autoconf.in): New target.
optional are the sum of the previous files on the command line'.
Also, pass `--reload-state=' on them, so...
(handle_m4): don't.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autotest, Autoconf): Rely on M4sh.
(M4sh): Rely on M4sugar.
(Autotest, M4sh, M4sugar): Use frozen files.
