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.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Preset Output Variables): Document these
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.
* tests/autoreconf.in, tests/wrappl.in, tests/autom4te.in,
* tests/wrapsh.in, tests/autoupdate.in: New.
* tests/Makefile.am (DISTCLEANFILES, EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
* configure.ac: Build the position independent wrappers.
* man/Makefile.am: Now that test wrappers are position
independent, use them and drop dark envvar magic.
the AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS invocation.
This also solves the name clash problems.
Don't set the package's ID.
* lib/m4sugar/Makefile.am (version.m4): Revamp.
No longer to be shipped.
(version.in): Remove.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4, lib/autoconf/general.m4,
* lib/autoconf/status.m4: Adjust.
Use `m4_PACKAGE_STRING'.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): N-th signature change: now
the only optional argument is the name of the test suite.
Expect `package.m4' to define the package signature.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autotest): Add `package.m4?'.
* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): New.
* tests/suite.at: ifnames is a victim.
* bin/autoconf.in, bin/autoheader.in, bin/autoreconf.in,
* bin/autoscan.in, autoupdate.in: Use exclusively the name of the
installed peer executables, only PATH is allowed to resolve it.
Pass `autoconf_dir' via options, not via invisible envvars.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&find_peer): Remove.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): `AUTOTEST_PATH=a:b' gives
`abuild:asrc:bbuild:bsrc', not `abuild:bbuild:asrc:bsrc'.
* man/Makefile.am: Let help2man rely on PATH instead of trying to
find the executables for it.
* tests/Makefile.am: Major cleanup. Too lazy to document...
* tests/atlocal.in: Remove all the obscure envvar manipulations.
We only need PERL.
* tests/atspecific.m4, tests/tools.at: Passing --localdir is
indeed related to running the test suite, while passing
--autoconf-dir and others is related to running non installed
Autoconf executables. So don't do that, leave it to...
* tests/autoconf, tests/autoheader, tests/autom4te, tests/autoupdate,
* tests/autoscan: New.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_M4SUGAR, AT_CHECK_M4SH): Don't
refer to library files: rely on --language.
* lib/Makefile.am (edit, autom4te.cfg): New.
* bin/autom4te.in (BEGIN): Simplify.
Rely on `AC_MACRODIR' in addition of `autom4te_perllibdir'.
(&load_configuration): New. Use it.
(&parse_args): Support --mode, --set, and --melt.
* bin/autoconf.in: Simplify and adjust.
* tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE): Use --set.

* lib/autoconf/version.in: Remove.
* lib/m4sugar/version.in: New.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_acversion, m4_version_prereq): New.
Adjust callers.
* bin/autoupdate.in: Distinguish M4sugar vs. Autoconf macros by
the name of the directory they're in, instead of the filename,
since version.m4 is now in m4sugar, but m4_acversion must not be
classified as an Autoconf macro.
($input_m4): Don't qualify the path to m4sugar.
Rather, pass autoconf_dir to m4.
* tests/Makefile.am (testsuite): Remove -I top_srcdir, unneeded.
* tests/suite.at: Require 2.52c.
* lib/autotest/autotest.m4: New.
* lib/autotest/general.m4, tests/atspecific.m4: Adjust.
* tests/suite.at : Adjust.
(AT_INIT): Log config.log.

* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_CONFIG_LOG): Use them.
(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Fix the incredibly messy and buggy completion
of config.log on traps.
(_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Use AS_BOX.
Use consistently `_ACEOF' for configure's here docs, and `_CSEOF'
for config.status'.
Open the log as soon as possible.
Use the same log introduction as configure's.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Say what you are
looking for.
* m4/atconfig.m4: Be sure the let $[0] be expandable.
(top_srcdir): Fix its computation.

test suite lives.
Create `atconfig' automagically.
Configure atlocal.in if present.
* tests/atconfig.in: Remove.
* tests/atlocal.in: New.
* tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
(&handle_m4): Use it.
* tests/m4sugar.at (m4_warn): Pass `-f' to autom4te to ensure the
warnings are issued at each run.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_M4SUGAR, AT_CHECK_M4SH): M4sugar
is in the src tree.
should not. m4_text_wrap was using it, but in the Autoconf world
where it is legal. Hence (i) test M4sh in its own world, not
Autoconf's, and (ii), ahem, fix the bug :)
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Be sure the set good quotes, as tracing
does not like `' instead of [].
(AT_INIT): Forbid `^_?AT_'.
And don't output such tokens.
* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Add `script', `script.s4g',
`script.as', and `autom4te.cache'.
Remove `empty' and `macro' which are no longer used.

* tests/atgeneral.m4 (AT_CHECK): Propagate $2's default value.
* tests/compile.at (Extensions): New test.
* aclang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT, _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_O):
Distinguish files with or without a dot.
* tests/atgeneral.m4: Import M4sh.
Adjust the differences on the names of the builtins (define etc.).
(AT_CASE): Remove, use m4_case.
(AT_SETUP): Don't use `AT_group_description', `$1' is OK.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (m4_for, m4_foreach): Remove, use those of
M4sugar.
* tests/m4sugar.at: Strengthen the quotation and adjust to the new
macro names.
* tests/m4sh.at: Ditto.
* tests/torture.at: Ditto.
* tests/base.at: Ditto.

before high level ones.
* tests/semantics.at (AC_CONFIG_FILES, HEADERS, LINKS and COMMANDS):
(missing templates): Move to...

Reorder the file so that the torture test is last.

(AC_PROG_CPP without warnings): Move to...
* tests/compile.at: here, new file.
* tests/suite.at: Run `torture' and then `compile' before
`semantics'.
`shell.m4' and the name space `AS_*'.

Adjust all dependencies.

(AC_SHELL_DIRNAME & AC_SHELL_DIRNAME_SED): Eve out into...

here, new file.
Adjust the test suite.
it includes another AU defined macro.
* autoupdate.sh (input.m4:_au_defun): New macro.
(au.m4): Use it instead of inlining _au_enable/_au_disable
invocations in the definition of all these macros.
(input.m4:__au_enable, input.m4:__au_disable): New macros.
(input.m4:_au_enable, input.m4:_au_disable): Use them.
* tests/mktests.sh (update_exclude_list): Add `AC_OUTPUT'.
Running it twice in a configure.in is not valid.
Add `AC_LINK_FILES' since it requires arguments.

AC_CHECK_PROGS.

* autoupdate.sh: Complete rewrite. See that file for a detailed
explanation. Basically, simulate the name spaces thanks to
`autoconf --trace' and auxiliary files.
No longer use `autoupdate.m4', remove the dependencies.
Synchronize the options and `--help'.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Invoking autoupdate): Humanoupdate.
* autoupdate.m4: Delete.
* tests/Makefile.am (FILTER_MACROS): Add `AC_OUTPUT'.
Since `AC_OUTPUT' is now AU_DEFUN'd, it is extracted for testing,
while it was not before.
* tests/tools.m4 (autoupdate): Re-enable. Adjust the expected
output with the right quotation (yeah!).
Pass `-m $top_srcdir': autoupdate want the `.m4' files, not the
frozen files.
* Makefile.am (nodistpkgdataDATA): Move `acversion.m4' to
(distpkgdataDATA): here, so that all the `.m4' files are in the
source hierarchy, not split across src and build.
* acversion.m4.in: Update to today's standards.
