a80789dab2 * doc/autoconf.texi (Defining Symbols): Explain that
AC_DEFINE(var) defaults to 1, but AC_DEFINE(var,,description) does
not; and the AC_DEFINE(var) case is obsolescent.

7a3408107f * lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Keep the
`duplicates', since the algorithm was too naive and could keep
`--prefix=1 --prefix=2 --prefix=1' as `--prefix=1 --prefix=2', and
keep `--prefix foo --prefix bar' as `--prefix foo bar'.
Reported by Ralf Corsepius.
* tests/torture.at (Configuring subdirectories): Exercise these
cases.

directory is relative.

32d4eac8a4 * bin/Makefile.am (autoconf, autoheader, autoreconf, autoupdate)
(ifnames, autoscan, autom4te): Since we don't only depend on
configure.ac variables (such as VERSION etc.), but also on prefix
and so forth, depend on Makefile, not configure.ac.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Adjust.

e48f63b7e4 * hpmake/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Make): HP-UX trailing
backslashes doesn't seem to be confined to ia64, just say "some
versions".

cc918306df (AC_SYS_POSIX_TERMIOS): Reflect renaming: s/am/ac/,
i.e., change am_cv_sys_posix_termios to ac_cv_sys_posix_termios.
Also, tweak grammar: s/make sure to/be sure to/.

5bd6f32216 * tests/mktests.sh (ac_exclude_egrep, au_exclude_egrep): Use
ordinary shell concatenation rather than echo+tr+sed command that
runs afoul of a long-line-related sed bug in Solaris 8.

9c8b4a2faf * bin/autoconf.as: Work even if "ls" outputs "FOO not found" to
stdout, as traditional "ls" does.
* lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT,
_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_O): Likewise.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Usual Tools): Add "ls".

* bin/autoconf.as: Add --prepend-include option.  This patch was
applied to bin/autoconf.in in the 2002-07-17 patch by Mark D. Roth,
but bin/autoconf.in is generated automatically from bin/autoconf.as.

* bin/autoconf.in, configure: Regenerate.

6eb625f2f3 * doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Mention
ENV, MAIL, MAILPATH, PS1, PS2, PS4.  Index PWD.

* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Unset ENV, MAIL,
MAILPATH and set PS1, PS2, PS4 to default values, to work
around bug in pre-3.0 UWIN ksh reported by Bruce Lilly.
For LC_ALL etc, first try to set to "C" as POSIX requires and as
the Autoconf documentation specifies; fall back to "unset" only if
this fails.  Use a shell for-loop for this rather than an m4 loop,
to shorten the output script.

c455431113 * doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Mention POSIX
1003.1-2001's requirements for CDPATH.  Give a simpler workaround
for the CDPATH problem.  Document PWD.
(Limitations of Builtins): Document the problem that "cd $foo" and
"ls $foo" may refer to different directories in shells conforming
to POSIX 1003.1-2001.  Use PS1 rather than CDPATH for "unset"
example, since the old example is now out of date.

* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Reject FOO if "cd
FOO" and "ls FOO" talk about different directories; this catches
problems when POSIX 1003.1-2001 "cd" fails due to symlink
spaghetti.

* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Use AS_UNSET instead
of rolling our own unset.
(_AS_PREPARE): $as_unset CDPATH instead of AS_UNSETting it, since
in practice we needn't worry about CDPATH if unset doesn't work.

Update.
