(_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Adjust.
(_AC_INIT): Pass your argument to AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR.
* libm4.m4 (m4_append, m4_list_append): Use m4_define, not define.
On my machine the former implementation takes 4mn 40s to run the

* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_SUBST): Use AC_EXPAND_ONCE (which uses
m4_define, not define). 4mn.
(_AC_DIVERT): Don't use m4_case. Starting from those 4mn, if you

(AC_COPYRIGHT): Use it.
Require AC_INIT, not _AC_INIT_VERSION.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Versions): Promote as first section of
`Setup'.
Rename as `Notices'.
Document AC_COPYRIGHT.
Don't give false reasons for placing AC_REVISION before AC_INIT,
the place no longer matters.
CONFIG_FILES, we had to expand _AC_OUTPUT_FILES into the KILL
diversion, because it is AC_OUTPUT_FILES which undiverted the
AC_SUBST sed script at its proper place, otherwise it would have
been undiverted at the end of `configure', leading to an sh syntax
error.
Now that we no longer use a diversion, we don't need to call
AC_OUTPUT_FILES if useless.
(AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Rename as _AC_OUTPUT_FILES.
(AC_OUTPUT_LINKS): Rename as _AC_OUTPUT_LINKS.
Automake calls it, and usually users do too. If it happens,

(AC_ARG_PROGRAM): AC_DEFUNed_ONCE. Or is it AC_DEFUN_ONCE'd? :).
No longer AC_EXPAND_ONCE the help string, the macro itself is
expanded at most once.

Suggested by Alexandre Oliva and Lars J. Aas
* libm4.m4 (ifndef): New macro.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERT): New macro, maps a diversion name to
its value. The diversions now have a short name, e.g., `NOTICE',
instead of the former macros which had long names, e.g.,
`AC_DIVERSION_NOTICE'.
(AC_DIVERT_PUSH): Adjust.
(AC_DIVERT_POP): Use ifndef.

white spaces.
Propagate `translate_awk' failures to `autoconf.sh'.
Translate the quadrigraphs.

`m4_dnl'.
* autoconf.sh (initialization): New var, new option.
(option loop): When you need an arg, make sure there is one.
(run_m4f): New var, which content is that of the former...
(run_m4): Don't use m4 frozen state files.
Change all callers.
Don't pass AC_LOCALDIR, not documented, and unused.
(task trace): Honor `--verbose' and `--initialization'.
(globally): Send `--verbose' messages in stderr.
Fix random typos.
* autoconf.sh (debug): New var, new option.
Adjust the trap code.
(task trace): Instead of decoding `m4 --trace' with sed, decode it
with m4 itself.
($silent_m4): New file, which disables m4's `errprint'.
($trace_m4): New file. Logistic for the m4 which is in charge of
decoding the traces of the first.
($translate_awk): Transform a user trace request into $trace_m4
code.
2.5.1 only the last one is honored:
> echo "foonbar" | egrep -e 'foo' -e 'bar'
bar
> echo "foonbar" | egrep -e 'bar' -e 'foo'

New diversion numbers.
