new complexity. Only expand the substitution templates at
configure time, for smaller configure script size. If
_AC_SUBST_FILES are used, test 'awk' for working getline support

from Paolo Bonzini and Paul Eggert.

Don't use the term "thread-safe" to talk about mkdir race

just look at the version number. (There's no easy way to check
for race-free implementations.)
