I like to name temporary directories that I will remove shortly
with two leading commas so that they sort lexicographically at
the top of `ls' output. Now, `./configure
--prefix=`pwd`/,,inst' works again, for the first time in
several years.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_sed_s_comma): Comma is too common a
character to use routinely as the separator for sed
substitutions on file paths and other variables determined by
the user, causing bugs like the one I describe above. Make sure
we don't accidentally reintroduce any comma separators in
future.

expression.

Contrary to popular belief, Bourne shell does not resplit RHS of
assignments after expansion, so if there are no unquoted shell
metacharacters or whitespace, the quotes are useless.
* cfg.mk (_sc_search_regexp_or_exclude): A variation of gnulib's
_sc_search_regexp that also allows individual exclusions at the
site of what would otherwise match by adding a comment.
(sc_useless_quotes_in_assignment): New syntax-check rule to
ensure we don't reintroduce useless quoted assignments.

In addition to moving the autoconf auxiliary script directory
into the place expected by GNU developers ($top_srcdir/build-aux)
we also simplify libtoolize somewhat by having libltdl use
whatever directory was specified by the parent project. This is
much more flexible, allows libltdl client projects to also use a
single canonical `$top_srcdir/build-aux' auxiliary script
directory, and maintains backward compatibility with existing
projects that wish to continue using $ltdl_dir/config.
* libltdl/config: Moved whole directory from here...
* build-aux: ...to here.
* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgaux_subproject): Remove.
(func_install_pkgaux_parent): Remove.
(func_install_pkgaux_files): Considerably simplified now that we
have only a single auxiliary directory to worry about.
(subproject_aux_dir): Remove.
* bootstrap.conf (libtool_readme_release_package_substitutions):
No need to substitute our old unusual aux_dir location into
README-release any more.
* cfg.mk (_build-aux): Now that we use the standard location for
this directory, no need to set this variable either.
* configure.ac (AC_INIT): git-version-gen has moved.
(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Adjust.
* Makefile.am (stamp-mk, auxexefiles, auxfiles)
(install-data-local): Use build-aux instead of config.
(libltdl/stamp-mk): Ditto.

tests/f77demo/configure.ac, tests/fcdemo/configure.ac,

(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Ditto.
* tests/defs.m4sh (aux_dir): Ditto.
* tests/configure-iface.at, tests/getopt-m4sh.at,
tests/libtoolize.at, tests/subproject.at, tests/testsuite.at:
Ditto.
* Makefile.am (ltdl_ac_aux_dir): Extract at build-time...
* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ltdl_ac_aux_dir): ...so that
libtoolize can access it at runtime without requiring GNU M4 via
the extract-trace script.
(require_Makefile_am_filter): Use it to determine whether the
aux_dir declared in the current (parent) project configure is
compatible with the declarations in installed ltdl autotools
source files.
(require_configure_ac_filter): New function to perform similar
checks and rewrite configure.ac during installation if necessary.
* NEWS: Updated.

that name in a top-level Makefile.am.
(func_check_macros): Print a deprecation warning if use of the
old `Makefile.inc' convention is found.

correctly when `Makefile.inc' convention is still in use.

It's much too easy to forget that the functions you hook into
the option parser need to return unconsumed options in the
variable `func_run_hooks_result'; better to follow the
convention used in the rest of bootstrap and return results in a
variable named after the function with `_result' appended.
* libltdl/config/options-parser (func_run_hooks): implement this
new API.
(Option parsing): Update the example in the header comment for
this section to reflect the changes.
* bootstrap (bootstrap_options_prep, bootstrap_parse_options)
(bootstrap_validate_options): Adjust.
* bootstrap.conf (libtool_options_prep, libtool_parse_options)
(libtool_validate_options): Ditto.

* bootstrap: Bourne shell has no scoping, so be extremely
careful with namespaces, functions in `^func_' and `^require_';
private variables in `^_G_', and public variables all well
documented by comments.
* libltdl/config/extract-trace: New file, containing the minimum
of code previously in bootstrap plus a little glue to make the
GNU M4 based autotools tracing function (as opposed to the
kludgy sed extraction currently used everywhere else) a
standalone script that can be executed or sourced.
* libltdl/config/options-parser: New file, containing the
pluggable options parser code shared between the other two.
* bootstrap.conf: Adjust.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Be sure to distribute the new
extract-trace and options-parser scripts.
(install-data-local): And install them where libtoolize can find
them.

* bootstrap (func_gnulib_tool_copy_file): When gnulib-tool is
not available, check that there is a copy of the file from a

(func_install_gnulib_non_module_files): Don't diagnose missing
files explicitly - func_gnulib_tool_copy_file takes care of it
now.
(func_require_checkout_only_file): In the diagnostic for
not being in a source-controlled tree, note that `--force' must
be used to rebootstrap.
(func_require_gnulib_files_already_present): Removed. All the
necessary checks are correctly performed in
func_gnulib_tool_copy_file withot resorting to heuristics.
(func_require_gnulib_mk): Don't continue to try to access
gnulib-cache.m4 after discovering we're running from a dist
tarball.
(func_require_dotgitmodules_parameters): Skip if .gitmodules
file is missing and git binary is not available.
* bootstrap.conf (checkout_only_file): Set to HACKING, which is
a non-distributed file.

(libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, tests/package.m4):
