a90ca1c7e6 AC_REVISION must not AC_REQUIRE AC_INIT, it leaves the diversions
in a messy state.  Don't even try to emulate AC_REQUIRE: just
introduce a diversion just for AC_REVISION, and let the magic
happen.
Fixes Autoconf PR/134, from Raja R Harinath.

* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_DIVERT(REVISION)): New diversion.
(AC_REVISION): Don't require AC_INIT, dump in your diversion.
(_AC_INIT): Delete, inline its body in...
(AC_INIT): here.
(_AC_INIT_NOTICE, _AC_INIT_COPYRIGHT): New macros so that...
(AC_INIT): be more uniform.
(AC_INIT, AC_REVISION, AC_COPYRIGHT): `define', don't AC_DEFUN.

6a1acb0259 * aclang.m4 (AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS): Keep -lm, if a Fortran
compiler needs it, it is likely to be required when linking C/C++
with Fortran.
<-YP,*>: Fix the list of arguments to loop on.
Don't mess with the user variable name space.
<ac_ld_run_path>: Prepend LD_RUN_PATH directories with -R only
when running Solaris (without this, link errors occur).

status, fix problem where two results were printed at once.

lf95 (Lahey/Fujitsu Fortran) and pgf77 (Portland Group Fortran)
(_AC_PROG_F77_G): Some Fortran compilers produce stdout/stderr
output even if no errors occur - check exit status rather than
output.

c50f5b336c * acgeneral.m4 (_AC_SHELL_TMPDIR): When using `mktemp -d', be sure

cb2e761b8e Re-enable the old behavior of --host and --build.
* acgeneral.m4 (build_alias): Set to host_alias if --build is not
given but --host is, and enable cross-compile auto-detection.  If
both are, and are different, enable cross compilation.
(AC_CANONICAL_HOST): Adjust help message.
(cross_compiling): Enclose in quotes when testing.
* aclang.m4 (_AC_LANG_COMPILER_WORKS): If cross_compiling is
maybe, set it to yes or no depending on the result of the
execution test.

(Obsoleting Macros): Don't document AC_DEFUNCT, it's going to be
removed anyway, obsoleted itself by AU_DEFUN.

Clarify the difference between the `foo_target' and `foo'
variables.

8b3a0fbaae * acgeneral.m4 (AC_CONFIG_LINKS, AC_CONFIG_HEADERS,
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, AC_CONFIG_FILES): Use a shell variable instead
of an m4 variable to store what must be done, so that sh
conditionals are honored.
(_AC_OUTPUT_LINKS, _AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS,
_AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS, _AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Adjust.
* tests/semantics.m4: Test the four AC_CONFIG sisters.

12e3a8ea6e The current implementation of AC_REQUIRE fails on
| AC_DEFUN([TEST1],  [REQUIRE([TEST2a])REQUIRE([TEST2b])])
| AC_DEFUN([TEST2a], [])
| AC_DEFUN([TEST2b], [REQUIRE([TEST3])])
| AC_DEFUN([TEST3],  [REQUIRE([TEST2a])])
|
| AC_INIT
| TEST1

because it produces TEST3; TEST2a; TEST2b; TEST1.
Fix this bug, implement the solution provided by Axel Thimm,
and test AC_REQUIRE.

* acgeneral.m4: Document this implementation.
(_AC_DEFUN_PRO, _AC_DEFUN_EPI, AC_REQUIRE): Be sure that macros
are emitted in the same order as they are expanded.
(AC_REQUIRE): Forbid being calling out of an AC_DEFUN'd	macro (in
particular the top level).
* tests/base.m4 (AC_REQUIRE): New test.

439ddf9140 A macro which is not defined with AC_DEFUN should not be
AC_REQUIRE'd, since it doesn't AC_PROVIDE itself.

* acgeneral.m4 (AC_REQUIRE): Issue a warning when after expansion,
the macro is not AC_PROVIDE'd.

ef0391870c Various cleanups.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PRO, AC_EPI): Rename as _AC_DEFUN_PRO and
_AC_DEFUN_EPI.
Adjust dependencies.
(AC_DEFUN): Remove the not-to-be-released specializing mechanism.
(AC_SPECIALIZE): Remove for the same reasons.
Adjust dependencies.
(_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS, _AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS, _AC_INIT_VERSION,
_AC_INIT_PREPARE, _AC_CANONICAL_SPLIT, _AC_CHECK_TYPE_NEW,
_AC_CHECK_TYPE_OLD): Define via `define' instead of `AC_DEFUN':
they are not related to AC_REQUIRE in any way.
* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_ECHO, _AC_DECL_YYTEXT, _AC_PATH_X_XMKMF,
_AC_PATH_X_DIRECT): Define via `define' instead of `AC_DEFUN'.

05bf3247cc * acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_TOOL): Use two variables in order to
avoid cache variable conflicts between AC_CHECK_PROG invocations.
(AC_PATH_TOOL): Fix same bugs as in 6/9/00 fixes to AC_CHECK_TOOL.
Pass correct arguments to AC_CHECK_PATH (different from
AC_CHECK_PROG).  Use AC_CHECK_PATH cache variable, not
AC_CHECK_PROG var, and use two variables for two invocations as
above.  Quote AC_CHECK_* args.

7b3c994a37 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_TOOL): Even if VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND is not

actually works before returning it when the prefixed program is
not found. Also, fixed a bug where it failed to pass the PATH
argument in the second call to AC_CHECK_PROG.
