* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE):
Extracted from AS_SHELL_SANITIZE.
(_AS_SHELL_FN_WORK, AS_INIT_WITH_SHELL_FN): New
macros.
(AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Move reinvocation code from
_AS_LINENO_WORKS, use it to find out if shell
functions work.
(_AS_LINENO_WORKS): Don't find another shell if $LINENO
does not work.
(AS_INIT): Pass parameter down to AS_SHELL_SANITIZE.
(AS_REQUIRE_SHELL_FN): Test that AS_INIT_WITH_SHELL_FN
was called.
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Use AS_INIT_WITH_SHELL_FN.
* bin/autoconf.in: Regenerate.
* tests/wrapper.in: Regenerate.
* tests/tools.at: Test the syntax of tests/autoconf
and tests/testsuite.
so that ac_abs_builddir, ac_abs_top_builddir, ac_abs_srcdir,
and ac_abs_top_srcdir are absolute paths.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SET_CATFILE): Remove misleading comment.
* bin/autoreconf.in (autoreconf_current_directory): Create the
AUX_DIR if needed, for sake of automake --add-missing etc.
Suggested by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
* bin/Makefile.am (edit): Handle '@configure_input@'.
(autoconf, autoheader, autom4te, autoreconf, autoscan, autoupdate)
(ifnames): chmod -w.
* tests/wrapper.as (AUTOCONF, AUTOM4TE, ): Point to tests/
executables, not bin/ executables! Otherwise all the magic needed
to find non installed files is turned off. This caused a failure
of test 40 and 41 that ran aclocal 1.8 which in turn ran autom4te
as found in its environment (sent by tests/autoreconf): pointing
to bin/autom4te that could not find its files.
* tests/mktests.sh: Force the replacement of generated files, for
the sake of "mv" program that are interactive when overwriting a
-w file.
* config/install-sh: Upgrade from CVS Automake.
(&verbose): Remove.
(&getopt): Adjust the note and verb channels, depending upon
--verbose.
* bin/autoheader.in, bin/autom4te.in, bin/autoscan.in,
* bin/autoupdate.in: Adjust.
Use &verb, not &verbose.
&parse_WARNINGS.
($help): Use Autom4te::ChannelDefs::usage.
* bin/autoscan.in: Use Autom4te::ChannelDefs.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm: Don't export error: you don't own it.
including when the cache is used.
There are still several issues: (i) there are too many runs of m4
(one for include, one for warnings, and some more), (ii) warnings
spreading on several lines are not handled gracefully, (iii) the
code meant to have the call stack display for errors does not work
(its handling should move from m4 to autom4te).
* bin/autom4te.in Autom4te::Channels, Autom4te::ChannelDefs):
Use them.
(@preselect): Add m4_warn.
($exit_status): Remove, use $exit_code.
($help): Use Autom4te::ChannelDefs::usage.
(&handle_m4): No longer define the m4_warnings.
At each run, extract and report the warnings.
Always cache the result, including if the exit status is on
failure, since if nothing changes, we should result in the same
failure, hence we can use the cache.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_warning_ifelse, _m4_warning_ifelse)
(_m4_warning_error_ifelse, __m4_warning_error_ifelse, _m4_warn):
Remove.
(m4_warn): Redefine as a do-nothing: it is its invocation that
matters, as warnings are now reported via traces.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_DIAGNOSE): Don't make it a copy of
the contents of m4_warn: make it _call_ m4_warn, so that tracing
the latter reveals calls to the former.
Adjust the tests.
* tests/m4sugar.at (m4@&t@_warn): Use existing warning categories.
* bin/autom4te: Adjust.
In particular, be Autoconf tools are really silent when properly
working, bind the verbosity of the 'note' channel to $verbose.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&find_file, &mtime, &update_file)
(&xsystem, &contents): Remove, since they are exported by...
* lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm: this.
More perldoc.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&up_to_date_p): Move to...
* lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm: here.
changes.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&backname): Remove, no longer used by
Autoconf nor Automake.
(&contents): New, from Automake.
PODify.
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CXX_EXIT_DECLARATION):
Remove `#include <stdlib.h>' from the list; we should never
* bin/autoscan.in, bin/autoupdate.in, bin/ifnames.in (BEGIN): Make
them uniform, and more robust to Perl special characters.

longer updates aclocal.m4 if useless, (ii) if a file m4_included
by aclocal.m4 is changed it might require the importing of another
m4 extension file, i.e., aclocal must be run.
* bin/autoreconf.in (&run_aclocal, $aclocal_supports_force): New.
(&parse_args): Use --force with aclocal if required and supported.
(&autoreconf_current_directory): Use &run_aclocal.
* lib/Autom4te/XFile.pm ($me, &name, &lock, &truncate, &seek): New.
* bin/autom4te.in (&Request::save, &Request::load): Use an IO::File
argument instead of a file name, so that the request file remains
open during the whole autom4te run.
($icache_file): New.
(&freeze): Lock the $icache_file.
to a shell that can handle redirection or quoting correctly.
Override SHELL with the shell detected by configure.
Use of $^O suggested by Tim van Holder.
* bin/autom4te.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/autoreconf.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/autoscan.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/autoupdate.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/ifnames.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/ifnames.in: Add final newline to help and version messages.
* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_MAKE_SET): Translate colons,
to cope with DOS-style absolute paths, when constructing
${ac_make}.
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS, _AC_OUTPUT_FILES):
When constructing paths with IFS=:, quote the path. If we're
constructing a DOS-style absolute path, we don't want to split it
on the colon.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_CONFIGURE): Fix typo
in description.
