are in fact now rather complicated. This delta updates the
release instructions to the describe the new process, and updates
the maintainer rules to help automate many of the steps:
* README-alpha: Updated release instructions.
* Makefile.am (GPG): Name of the program for generating signatures
for files to be uploaded.
(XDELTA, XDELTA_OPTIONS): Invocation of xdelta.
(cvs-dist): Run distcheck before tagging the cvs tree incase
distcheck fails, and then generate the gpg signature files.
(cvs-diff): Generate the gpg signature files for the diff.
(xdelta): New rule for generating the xdelta diffs and associated
gpg signature files.
(cvs-release): New rule to do all of the above, if you don't mind
typing your gpg passphrase over and over again. :-)
(fetch): New rule inspired by automakes similar rule for updating
files maintained outside the project.
* config/config.guess, config/config.sub: Updated with the new
fetch rule.
added to the list, in exchange for appending loaders to the list
with O(N) rather than O(1). The longest the loader list can ever
get is 4 (on cygwin with dld installed) so it probably constitutes
a small speedup, in addition to making the code much more readable.
ltmain unconditionally.
(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): New macro to ensure that the
shell variable `ltmain' actually points at a suitable `ltmain.sh'.
(_AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Require it.
(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG, _LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Invoke it.
* Makefile.am (libtool): ltmain.sh is in the build tree.
* libltdl/configure.ac: Ditto.
and $finalize_deplibs for programs) when found on the command line
or in a .la file's dependency_libs (but don't place them there) so
they are honoured when linking both programs and libraries.

AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AM_PROG_LIBTOOL,
AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED,
AM_DISABLE_STATIC): These macros must be AC_DEFUNed after all,
otherwise aclocal can't find them when it tries to construct
`aclocal.m4'.
* Adjust ChangeLog dates to be when I committed, not when I posted
the patches.
* Adjust name/e-mail in ChangeLog to be the authors of the patches.
* Add missing NEWS entry for Owen's patch.

AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Use
m4_define instead of AC_DEFUN for internal macros that do not
AC_PROVIDE or AC_REQUIRE, and documented user macros that cannot
be AC_REQUIREd because they need arguments, or because that would
violate the documented API.
delay_single_quote_subst sed script to quote single quotes in
variables that are copied to `config.status'.
(_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE): New macro to apply
delay_single_quote_subst to a named variable.
(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Use _LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE to declare all
`configure' variables that are copied to `config.status'.
(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_PIC): Fix a quoting bug exposed by
_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE using the null quadrigraph in the
rvalues of lt_prog_compiler_pic.
binary wrapper used with uninstalled executables breaks when
invoked via execlp/execvp (that is, via $PATH). Handle that case.
(fnqualify): Subsumed into find_executable.
when extracting symbols from an import lib (occurs if
--enable-shared --disable-static), the output of
$global_symbol_pipe is not the same as when extracting from a
static library (the default case). Add extra filters to
$export_symbols_cmds to process this sort of output in addition to
'normal' static-lib output.
(LT_USE_WINDOWS_DIRENT_EMULATION): Move to after include "ltdl.h",
as they are affected by __WINDOWS__ definition.
(LT_READTEXT_MODE): Use textmode to read .la files.
(lt_dlinit): Use LoadLibrary loader as a fallback on cygwin.
defined, unless __CYGWIN__ or __CYGWIN32__ are defined.
(LT_SCOPE): Now set without reference to __CYGWIN__ definition,
since __WINDOWS__ now implies !__CYGWIN__ after canonicalisation.
(LT_PARAMS, lt_ptr): Use canonicalised __WINDOWS__ to determine
which values to set these macros to.
checkout by generating ltmain.sh, using that to create libtool,
and then adding the tags to that, all from config.status.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Make config/ltmain.sh, and copy
it to libltdl.
* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): This file is now
created by config.status. Adjust this rule.
(libtoolize): Set CONFIG_COMMANDS to empty to prevent regenerating
the libtool script as a side effect of running this rule.
* libtool.m4: Bump serial number. Fix comment typos.
(_LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL_INIT, _LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL,
_LT_CONFIG_SAVE_COMMANDS, _LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS: New macros. They
don't work for some reason - the variable value quoting in the
init section is all wrong. Not used at the moment.
(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Generate libtool from config.status.
(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Add the tags in config.status.
(compiler_DEFAULT): Save the compiler value for the DEFAULT tag,
or it gets overwritten by the other macros.
(EOF): Globally replace with _LT_EOF to avoid namespace pollution.
* tests/demo/configure.ac (STATIC): Check $enable_static instead
of running ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
(BINARY_HELLDL): Check $lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe with case
instead of grepping ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
* tests/pdemo/configure.ac (STATIC, BINARY_HELLDL): Ditto.
* doc/libtool.texi (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add some notes about trying
to get config details from `libtool --config'.
* NEWS: Updated.
check method back to a working objdump-based test. This is not as
concrete a test as using the 'file' command, but it does not
require that the 'file' command be available.
for AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS macro to specifify libtool tags. The now
defunct --with-tags option was never documented.
* m4/libtool.m4: Restrict the list of tags that can be created
with a new AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS([tag1 tag2 ...]) macro. Deprecate
--with-tags.

(LIBTOOLIZE): Use a dummy script to prevent the installed
`libtoolize' from trashing the distributed libtool.m4,
config.guess and config.sub.

$top_srcdir, and into tests too. The refactoring showed up a
number of inconsistencies and latent bugs, as well as fixing (I
think!!) the long-standing annoyance with some of the tests giving
spurious failures intermittently. While I was here, emacs kindly
removed a lot of bogus whitespace and added copyright notices for
