The syntax checks might trip over problems in the gnulib code itself
when scanning the local patches. Since it's unlikely these checks
will find anything useful, just disable them for the gl/ patches.
* cfg.mk (VC_LIST_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE_REGEX): Ignore ^gl/.
GNU indent will reformat a bunch of files in a way that's broken or
incorrect, so disable the check until we can find a way to workaround
this. Unfortunately, the indent check is enforced at `make distcheck`
time if GNU indent is installed, so it can't simply be ignored.
* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Add sc_indent.
Fixes libtool bug https://bugs.gnu.org/67588.
Automate the process to avoid it falling stale again in the future,
and then refresh here to get in sync.
* cfg.mk: Add rule to update libtool.m4 release version.
* m4/libtool.m4: Update release year.
* gnulib: Update to the latest git version.
* gl-mod/bootstrap: Likewise.
* bootstrap: Regenerate.
* gl/top/README-release.diff: Update the patch for the latest
changes in gnulib's README-release.
* NEWS: Remove the leading white-spaces before Copyright line
because it breaks the perl regexp in sc_immutable_NEWS rule.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Adjust to correct previous hash as the
old NEWS entries were not actually touched.
Multi-line single-quoted shell arguments defined within makefile
rules end up having the trailing backslash. This caused problem
in some sc_* rules as GNU sed does not interpret trailing
backslash the same way as SHELL (== appending next line).
Switching to double quotes means that SHELL will remove the
trailing backslash for subsequent sed call. This silences a lot
of GNU sed warnings seen before like:
sed: -e expression #1, char 96: unterminated address regex
* cfg.mk (sc_libtool_m4_cc_basename): Use $(SED) instead of sed,
use double quotes for sed's multi-line argument.
(sc_prohibit_set_dummy_without_shift): Likewise.
(sc_prohibit_test_const_follows_var): Likewise.
* gl/modules/funclib.sh-tests: New test module.
* gl/modules/all-shells-tests: New test (helper) module.

* gl/tests/test-all-shells.sh: New gl test helper.

new test-funclib-quote.sh as the pattern is used there
intentionally.
(sc_space_tab): Likewise.
(sc_useless_braces_in_variable_derefs): Remove /cvsu pattern as
the file is not used with git.
(sc_prohibit_command_in_subst): New checker.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_dollar): White-list the
'test ${VAR+y}' construct because that is autoconf-suggested
portable way to check for unset variable.
Modern GNU ASCII quoting in output and comments is done
'like this'.
* cfg.mk (sc_old_style_quoting): Try to catch most instances
of `old style quoting' so that it is not accidentally re-
introduced to the code.

I like to name temporary directories that I will remove shortly

the top of `ls' output. Now, `./configure

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

To safely use a non-literal first argument to `test', you must
always prepend a literal non-`-' character, but often the second
operand is a constant that doesn't begin with a `-' already, so
always use `test a = "$b"' instead of noisy `test "X$b" = Xa'.
