is not writable, use 'cp -p' in this case, in the hope that it
will not actually be needed. Still try removing files, in case
of other write errors.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): For ac_confdir,
use $as_myself, not $0.
(_AC_INIT_HELP): For --help=recursive, if the subdir does not
exist, try again in the the source tree. This change assumes
that the subpackage configure script is capable of running
--help=recursive in the source tree.
* tests/torture.at (Configuring subdirectories, Deep Package):
Adjust tests to expose both issues, also try invocation as
`sh configure ...' and plain `configure ...' with PATH adjusted.
* NEWS, THANKS: Update.

which won't work with the preprocessor nor with the awk
implementation.

removing the XFAIL.

(AC_XENIX_DIR, AC_IRIX_SUN): Promote proper quoting in AU_DEFUN.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Posix Variants): Reword this section,
emphasizing that AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS is the preferred method,

Instead of making AT_help a sequence of assignments to grow
$at_help_all, just make AT_help_all be the growing contents of
$at_help_all, and make a single assignment in...

(at_times_skip): Flip the meaning and rename as...

When constructing paths with IFS=:, quote the path. If we're
