changes.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&backname): Remove, no longer used by
Autoconf nor Automake.
(&contents): New, from Automake.
PODify.
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CXX_EXIT_DECLARATION):
Remove `#include <stdlib.h>' from the list; we should never
Do not call `_exit()', simply modify `$?'.
(xsystem): Reset $! before running system, and check it afterward.
* tests/tools.at (autoupdating AC_PREREQ): Expect exit status
63 for version mismatches.
Emacs' danger whitespace.el behavior (smashing "useless" spaces in
the middle of a line).
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4: Likewise.
Remove useless spaces in comments.
Remove `#include <stdlib.h>' from the list; we should never
make confdefs.h include <stdlib.h> or <cstdlib>, because the
resulting namespace pollution would cause other tests to fail.
Configure scripts run with some older versions of g++ and HP's
aCC would fail due to such an #include. Problems reported by
Matthew Mueller in <http://bugs.debian.org/120704> and by
Keith Bostic in
<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2003-05/msg00063.html>.
In the test, use the test declaration before including <stdlib.h>,
as that's closer to how it'll be used.
in testsuite.dir/NNN/testsuite.log, and append them to
testsuite.log instead of re-running the test verbosely.
Adapt documentation. Update NEWS to signal possible bad
interactions between -x and experr.
memcmp be declared before being tested.

(AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AC_FUNC_GETGROUPS, AC_FUNC_STRNLEN): Likewise.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Default Includes): Document
AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT.
* lib/Autom4te/XFile.pm ($me, &name, &lock, &truncate, &seek): New.
* bin/autom4te.in (&Request::save, &Request::load): Use an IO::File
argument instead of a file name, so that the request file remains
open during the whole autom4te run.
($icache_file): New.
(&freeze): Lock the $icache_file.
seperator with m4_append_uniq(). It doesn't work.
(AT_CLEANUP): Add `;' to end of at_help_all.
(AT_INIT): Allow --keywords to be specified more than once. When
grepping $at_help_all for keywords, use the field and keyword
seperators to ensure a complete keyword match. Alter at_prev handling
to support the new --keywords behavior.
to a shell that can handle redirection or quoting correctly.
Override SHELL with the shell detected by configure.
Use of $^O suggested by Tim van Holder.
* bin/autom4te.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/autoreconf.in (BEGIN): Likewise.
* bin/autoscan.in (BEGIN): Likewise.

* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_MAKE_SET): Translate colons,
to cope with DOS-style absolute paths, when constructing
${ac_make}.
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS, _AC_OUTPUT_FILES):
When constructing paths with IFS=:, quote the path. If we're
constructing a DOS-style absolute path, we don't want to split it
on the colon.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_CONFIGURE): Fix typo
in description.
compiler says yeah, but preproc says nope, compiler is right.
Conversely, prompt the reader to send a bug report to the
maintainers of the package, not of Autoconf.
innocuous variant befor including <limits.h> or <assert.h>.
This works around a bug reported by Albert Chin: HP-UX 11i
(and earlier versions) have a <limits.h> that declares
gettimeofday and many other functions.
