and host is irrelevant.
(Specifying Names, Canonicalizing): Remove all references to the
backward compatibility hooks. Rather, collect them all into...
(Hosts and Cross-Compilation): this new section.
* doc/install.texi (System Type): Ditto.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_CANONICAL_HOST): Explicitly state
that `--host' implies cross-compilation.
_AC_PROG_F77_GNU): Use ac_ext. Use ACEOF instead of EOF.
(AC_LANG_CONFTEST): New macro.
(_AC_PROG_CC_G, AC_PROG_CC_C_O, _AC_PROG_CXX_G, AC_PROG_F77_C_O,
_AC_PROG_F77_V_OUTPUT): Use it.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_CPP, AC_EGREP_CPP, AC_COMPILE_IFELSE,
AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE): Likewise.
* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_SH_QUOTE): Don't double quote. Escape the
double quotes too.
(_AC_ECHO_UNQUOTED): Don't double quote :).
(_AC_ECHO, _AC_ECHO_N): Quote the call to _AC_SH_QUOTE.
The autoheader chain needs to be adjusted.
* acgeneral.m4 (AH_VERBATIM): Just pass two arguments to AH_OUTPUT
instead of trying to build what `autoheader' needs: let it handle
the format by itself.
* autoheader.m4: Adjust.
s,tmp/config.h,tmp/config.hin.
The adjustment revealed that `autoconf --trace' is not robust to
single quotes in its argument.
* autoconf.sh: Fix this issue.
Rename the escape `$*' as `$%'. Implement `$@'.
* doc/autoconf.texi: Adjust.
