We _have_ to stop using the old compatibility scheme that tried to
avoid useless backslashes because Libtool 1.4.3 contains a
AC_DEFINE([error_t], [int],
[Define to a type to use for `error_t' if it is not
otherwise available.])
We _have_ to quote the single quote and backslashes with . The
old compatibility scheme saw that ` was backslashed, and therefore
did not quote the single quote. Hence before this patch, Autoconf
was not compatible with Libtool.

For LC_ALL etc, first try to set to "C" as POSIX requires and as

to POSIX 1003.1-2001. Use PS1 rather than CDPATH for "unset"
example, since the old example is now out of date.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Reject FOO if "cd
FOO" and "ls FOO" talk about different directories; this catches
problems when POSIX 1003.1-2001 "cd" fails due to symlink
spaghetti.
