From Oliver Kiddle and Peter Stephenson.
Have M4sh perform minimal shell sanitizing.

* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): Don't invoke
AS_SHELL_SANITIZE, AS_INIT did it, but invoke AS_PREPARE.

Invoke _AS_PREPARE (not AS_PREPARE) in addition to

Use this M4sh to generate Autoconf's shell scripts.

* tests/Makefile.am: Include lib/freeze.mk to get the dependencies
on Autotest and M4sh.
($(TESTSUITE)): Use $(autotest_m4f_dependencies).

* config/strip.m4: Remove, to ease sync'ing with any version of
Automake.
trailing files, don't apply `-rf' to files which might not be
created by configure (core, core.*, and *.core), but just `rm -f'.
Suggested by Jonathan Kamens.
Remove, replaced by...
* tests/wrappl.in: Be common for all the Perl executables.
In particular autoscan and autoheader want -I.
* configure.ac: Adjust.
* lib/autoscan/headers: errno.h is portable.
ac_buildpath, ac_top_buildpath, ac_srcpath, and ac_top_srcpath.
(_AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Also substitute srcpath, top_srcpath,
builddir, buildpath, top_builddir, and top_buildpath.
(_AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS): Compute the dir variables *before* changing
the current directory.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_HELP): Compute the dir
variables *before* changing the current directory.
Skip nonexistent dirs.

variables.
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Do not reset AT_victims.
Don't compute at_srcdir nor at_top_srcdir.
* tests/tools.at: Hence use top_srcdir.
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/autoconf, tests/autoheader,
* tests/autom4te, tests/autoreconf, tests/autoupdate, tests/ifnames:
Remove.

independent, use them and drop dark envvar magic.

(AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD): Define and use it.
* tests/suite.at (AT_VICTIMS): Use it.
* tests/tools.at (autoupdating AC_PREREQ): Don't depend upon
at_version.
* bin/autom4te.in (&find_file): Support `FILE?' standing for
optionally `FILE'.
Use -e, not -f, since /dev/null for instance is OK.
(&parse_args): Adjust.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autoconf): Add `acsite.m4?' and `aclocal.m4?'.
* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Add 1.5 and dist-bzip2.
(AMTAR): Help automake define it.
(INSTALL, install-data-hook): The INSTALL.txt trick is no longer
needed, 1.5 can have a macro and a target with the same name.

* lib/Autom4te/Makefile.am, man/Makefile.am: Use dist/nodist.
Reported by Michael Elizabeth Chastain.
* autoconf.in: Refuse such AWK.
* configure.in: Likewise.
* Makefile.am (acversion.m4): Do not use move-if-change this file
has dependencies.

Automake), include the separator themselves.

* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS_FDS): Remove, replace with
inline setting up of AS_MESSAGE_FD.

with some shells adding backslash between fields and parsing the
result for escapes.
