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 $(autotest_m4f_dependencies).
(wrapsh.in): New target.
* bin/autoconf.as: New, precursor of autoconf.in.
(autoconf.in): New target.
(_AC_CONFIG_COMMAND, _AC_CONFIG_LINK): New.
Use dnl, not the KILL diversion.
Extracted from...
(AC_CONFIG_FILES, AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS)
(AC_CONFIG_LINKS): here.
Adjust.
Don't use the KILL diversion, as it kills spurious output, which
results in failures being hidden.
Use m4_defn where appropriate.
(AC_CONFIG_IF_MEMBER): Kill the real bug: a spurious parenthesis
after the second argument.
Use m4_defn.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autoconf, Autotest, M4sh): Don't pass --warning
syntax, as it is provided by M4sugar.
* tests/torture.at (Multiple AC_CONFIG_FILES): New.
AUTOTEST_PATH *after* it was set.
Don't put `.' in the PATH: the user should be precise and `./' if
needed. In addition, given that the test suite does some `cd', if
`.' is in the path, the `tested programs' sections will report
programs found in the test suite's directory, while during the
tests (performed in their own directory), these programs are no
longer visible. In other words, the results is confusing and
useless.
* tests/m4sh.at: Adjust: don't rely on `.' being in the PATH.
package.m4, since is really depends upon configure.ac, not
configure.
* doc/autoconf.texi (testsuite Scripts): Adjust.
* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): New.
EXTRA_DIST it since its a source.
of PACKAGE_NAME, PACKAGE_TARNAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, PACKAGE_STRING,
and PACKAGE_BUGREPORT from here...
(_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): to here, since it is unrelated to the
arguments.
(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): AC_DEFINE these symbols.
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Use AT_PACKAGE_*, not PACKAGE_*.
(AT_INIT): No longer catch `^PACKAGE_(BUGREPORT|STRING)$'.
* tests/tools.at (autoheader): Adjust.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_DEFINES): Adjust.
Remove, replaced by...
* tests/wrappl.in: Be common for all the Perl executables.
In particular autoscan and autoheader want -I.
* configure.ac: Adjust.
* lib/autoscan/headers: errno.h is portable.
(AT_DATA_AUTOCONF): Also protect @&t@ from autom4te.
(AT_CHECK_AUTOCONF, AT_CHECK_AUTOHEADER): Pass no --include
option.
(AT_CHECK_CONFIGURE): Use absolute paths.
(_AT_CHECK_AC_MACRO): Create aclocal.m4 with AC_STATE_SAVE in it.
The problem is still the old one: there is no means in M4 (that I
know about) to create a defining macro, because there is no means
to create `$1' etc., therefore, the defining macro ``swallows''
all the arguments meant to the defined macro.
need to list the files to remove at the end of tests groups.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (_AT_CLEANUP_FILE, AT_CLEANUP_FILES):
(AT_data_files, at_data_files): Remove.
(AT_CLEANUP, AT_DATA): Simplify.
(AT_INIT): Adjust.
Remove the group dir if !debug && !failed.
* tests/atspecific.m4: Adjust.
processed only if present.
* tests/torture.at (Configuring subdirectories): Use autoreconf
instead of successive calls to autoconf.
Add a nonexistent subdirectory to exercise the patch above.
Reported by Ralf Corsepius.
(m4_list_cmp): Use $0 to reinvoke yourself.
(m4_patsubsts): New.
(m4_strip, m4_version_unletter): Use it.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_DATA_M4SUGAR, AT_DATA_M4SH): Likewise.
