+Authors of GNU Autoconf.
+
+Autoconf was originally written by David MacKenzie, with help from
+François Pinard, Karl Berry, Richard Pixley, Ian Lance Taylor, Roland
+McGrath, Noah Friedman, david d zuhn, and many others.
+
+Ben Elliston next took over the maintenance, facing a huge Autoconf
+backlog that had been piling up since the departure of David.  Other
+maintainers have included Akim Demaille, Jim Meyering, Alexandre
+Oliva, and Tom Tromey, with plenty of contributions from Lars J. Aas,
+Mo DeJong, Steven G. Johnson, Matthew D. Langston, Pavel Roskin.
+
+Today, the primary maintainers are Paul Eggert and Eric Blake, with
+help from Ralf Wildenhues, Stepan Kasal, and Benoit Sigoure.  Many
+other people have contributed, as listed in the THANKS file.
+
+The following contributors have warranted legal paper exchanges with
+the Free Software Foundation for their contributions to GNU Autoconf.
+This list results from searching for AUTOCONF in the file
+/gd/gnuorg/copyright.list on the fencepost.gnu.org machine.

+  shell or platform limitations; help is appreciated in improving
+  parallel testsuite support.

+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+		       Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+			    Preamble
+
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+    parties under the terms of this License.
+
+    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+    customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+    received the program in object code or executable form with such
+    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+			    NO WARRANTY
+
+  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
+    with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
+    51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
+    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into

+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
+library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License.

+                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works.
+
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
+certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
+pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
+have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+
+  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
+might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
+into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
+may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
+the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
+<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.

+
+	maint: drop bz2 tarball
+	At 2.68b, I asked whether anyone would miss .gz and .bz2 formats.

+	https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-03/msg00111.html

+
+	AC_INIT: remove a transitional warning
+	On bi-arch systems (such as x86 / x86_64) it is often necessary to pass
+	the --host option together with an appropriate value for CC. But this
+	triggers a warning:
+
+	$ ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu CC="gcc -m32 -march=i586"
+	configure: WARNING: if you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.
+	    If a cross compiler is detected then cross compile mode will be used
+	..
+
+	This warning was introduced on 2000-06-30, in commit
+	<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=commitdiff;h=cb2e761b8e1181f97e8e09d85526bd22078433db>
+	with the remark "Re-enable the old behavior of --host and --build."
+
+	This warning was meant to warn users about a changed semantics of
+	--build and --host. This change is now 12 years in the past; users
+	have had enough time to learn it. I therefore suggest to remove the
+	warning.
+
+	I've done lots of cross and bi-arch compilations in the last 10 years,
+	all with --host and without --build, and have never observed a problem
+	with it, except for the warning. Simply relying on config.guess is sufficient.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Don't warn if --host
+	given without --build.

+	The module Automake::Struct has been removed in automake master
+	branch (with yesterday's commit v1.11-2055-g74a7f49 "maint: drop
+	'Automake::Struct' module"): since Automake now requires Perl 5.6,
+	that module has become obsolete, being basically just a backport
+	of Perl 5.6's 'Class::Struct' to Perl 5.5.  With this change, we
+	follow suite in Autoconf, which syncs some of its internal modules
+	with Automake.
+
+	* lib/Autom4te/Struct.pm: Delete.
+	* lib/Autom4te/Makefile.am (dist_perllib_DATA): Don't list it
+	anymore.
+	* cfg.mk: Don't sync it with the Automake repository anymore.
+	* lib/Autom4te/Request.pm: Use 'Class::Struct' instead of

+2012-03-04  Stefano Lattarini  <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+	tests: fix spurious failure due to Solaris XPG4 sh bug
+	On Solaris 10, the /usr/xpg4/bin/sh shell seems unable to execute
+	a shell script named 'script':
+
+	  $ touch script
+	  $ /bin/sh script; echo status: $? # As expected.
+	  status: 0
+	  $ /usr/xpg4/bin/sh script; echo status: $? # Weirdness follows.
+	  /usr/xpg4/bin/sh: script: cannot execute
+	  status: 1
+
+	This was causing a spurious testsuite failure for users which have
+	/usr/xpg4/bin in $PATH before /bin and /usr/bin.  Fix that.
+
+	* tests/m4sh.at (Configure re-execs self with CONFIG_SHELL): Rename
+	the m4sh-produced script to 'script2', to avoid the just-described
+	issue.
+
+2012-03-04  Stefano Lattarini  <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+	tests: fix spurious failure when CONFIG_SITE is set
+	* tests/m4sh.at (Configure re-execs self with CONFIG_SHELL): Export
+	$CONFIG_SITE to "/dev/null", to avoid spurious diffs in expected
+	stdout/stderr.

+
+	fortran: clean up core files after AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS
+	* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS): Clean up core
+	files, too.  Needed for Sun Fortran 95 8.2 2005/10/13 on Solaris 8.

+	build: fix automake error due to missing ChangeLog
+	Apparently, Automake does not accept the '$(srcdir)/ChangeLog'
+	target in Makefile.am as a declaration that ChangeLog is
+	automatically generated (and thus does not need to exist at
+	automake time).  One has to use a *literal* 'ChangeLog' target.
+
+	Problem introduced in commit v2.68-118-g6ed5195 of 2012-01-17,
+	"maint: generate ChangeLog from git log".

+	tests: avoid spurious failure for each gnu-fortran-using test
+	The tests compare pre- and post-run lists of envvars, which must
+	be the same, modulo a list of known, filtered-out exceptions.
+	However, when running fortran-checking tests with GNU fortran, each
+	would fail due to the post-run addition of the GFC symbol added in
+	v2.68-97-gbd962ac.
+	* tests/local.at (AT_CHECK_ENV): Add GFC to the list of symbols
+	that we ignore in pre-/post-run environment diffs.

+
+	maint: generate ChangeLog from git log
+	Following the practice set by various other GNU projects, we start
+	to automatically generate the ChangeLog file from the git commit
+	messages.  This will avoid duplication (as the ChangeLog entries
+	were always inserted both in the git commit message and in the
+	version-controlled ChangeLog file), and potential problems with
+	spurious merge conflicts (which, although greatly mitigated by
+	Bruno Haible's `git-merge-changelog' helper program, have never
+	been completely solved).
+
+	* ChangeLog: Moved ...
+	* ChangeLog.3: ... to this.
+	* build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog: New script, synced from gnulib.
+	* cfg.mk (gnulib-update): Also sync gitlog-to-changelog.
+	* Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): New .PHONY rule, generate the
+	ChangeLog for distribution.
+	(dist-hook): Depend on it.
+	($(srcdir)/ChangeLog): New dummy rule, to pacify automake "gnu"
+	strictness.  Creates a dummy ChangeLog, that will be overridden
+	by the proper one at distribution time.
+	(gen_start_date): New variable, the date starting from which the
+	git log entries are to be copied in the generated ChangeLog.
+	(EXTRA_DIST): Add ChangeLog.3 and gitlog-to-changelog.
+	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): Use 'lib/autoconf/autoconf.m4'
+	instead of 'ChangeLog' as the sentinel file.
+	* .gitignore: Add ChangeLog.

+	exist before choosing them in hopes they will define getloadavg.
+
+	* autoheader.sh (frob): Put $2 and $3 in the expansion of
+	AC_HAVE_LIBRARY, so AC_DEFINE there is noticed.
+
+Mon Jul 26 14:21:33 1993  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (INT_16_BITS): Check the obvious way, so it

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Check for -lelf with

+Mon Jul 26 13:55:17 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FIND_X): Let make substitute any variables
+	in INCROOT and USRLIBDIR, instead of using sed.
+	From wojo@veritas.com (Jack Woychowski).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFINE): When printing value verbosely, use
+	double quotes and AC_DEFINE_QUOTE, like we do when assigning

+Sun Jul 11 00:43:51 1993  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): BSD library is -lutil, not
+	-lutils, and requires -lkvm too.
+	Check for local AIX library using AC_HAVE_LIBRARY, not
+	AC_COMPILE_CHECK.
+	Un-nest some conditionals.  Stop checking once we've
+	found a way to get getloadavg.
+
+Thu Jul  8 20:21:28 1993  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* Makefile.in: Remove rules for making *.conf; make

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Try ls -L first, in case

+Wed Jun 30 22:08:22 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+

+
+Fri Jun 25 23:16:42 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_CONST): Replace `p = <const char** expr>'
+	with `ccp = <const char** expr>'; the former wasn't ANSI C, and
+	was causing working compilers to be rejected.
+
+Fri Jun 25 13:26:34 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Redirect rm's stderr to

+	* autoconf.sh, autoheader.sh, acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Undo
+	change of Jun 16 1993.  Only set `LANG' and `LC_ALL' to "C" if
+	already set.
+
+Sat Jun 19 00:01:51 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Undefine m4's `format' builtin.

+Thu Jun 17 21:10:33 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CPP): Put double quotes around ${CC-cc},

+	If --verbose option given, say what CPP is being set to.
+
+Wed Jun 16 17:50:00 1993  Jim Blandy  (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CPP): Make sure that `cc -E` doesn't
+	run the program through the C compiler too.  Bob Olson
+	<olson@mcs.anl.gov> says it does on the NeXT.
+
+Wed Jun 16 16:17:05 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoconf.sh, autoheader.sh, acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Always set

+
+Fri Jun 11 14:29:31 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O): Test that cc works at all,
+	and only test it for -c -o if it does.
+
+Tue Jun  8 01:47:22 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): The line
+	  DEFS="`echo \"$DEFS\" | sed 's%[&\\\]%\\\&%g'`"
+	doesn't work in some shells, which don't allow nesting
+	\"\" inside `` inside "", and which don't unescape \\\& in the
+	expected (?) way.  Also, some versions of echo interpret
+	backslashes inside $DEFS.  Put $DEFS into a temporary file
+	to avoid these portability minefields.
+
+Mon Jun  7 20:11:50 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): In setting KMEM_GROUP, use new sed
+	magic from friedman which should win with both meanings of ls -lg.
+
+Mon Jun  7 06:48:49 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* Makefile.in (dist): Change gzipped tar file extension to `.gz'.
+	Use explicit --gzip option to tar to make sure tar uses the right
+	compression program (or else exits from failure to understand the
+	option).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Don't split sed expr for exec_prefix
+	across two lines, since not all versions of sed understand that.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): Complete rewrite which doesn't
+	depend on csh.

+Tue Jun  1 03:06:28 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* Version 1.4.1 (not announced to the general public, but
+	a snapshot was put on the June '93 GNU CDROM).
+
+	* Makefile.in (dist): If ln fails (e.g. because of cross-device
+	links), mention on stdout that file is being copied.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Use `[$]*' in assignment to
+	configure_args to get shell positional args, rather than m4 args to
+	AC_PREPARE.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): Use `configure_args' in config.status
+	when invoked with --recheck, rather than $*.
+
+Mon May 31 13:12:56 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): rm $dir/conftest*,

+Wed May 26 16:19:51 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoconf.texi (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Doc fix.
+	(Automatic Remaking): Put code fragment in @example ... @end example.
+
+Mon May 24 15:46:47 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoheader.sh (frob): Redefine AC_CONFIG_HEADER to set shell
+	variable `config_h'.
+	(config_h): New variable, initialize to "config.h" before frobbing.
+	(final output): Write ${config_h}.in.
+
+Sat May 22 17:45:19 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* Version 1.4 released.
+
+Thu May 20 20:25:45 1993  Jim Blandy  (jimb@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_IDENTITY): New function.
+	(AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): Use it to fix this; due to a
+	misunderstanding of m4, this was using its first argument as
+	the definition.
+
+Thu May 20 09:21:55 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA) [find_stack_direction]: Return the
+	value from the recursive call.  If it worked before, it was by luck.
+	From Bruno Haible <haible@ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de>.
+
+Tue May 18 23:40:21 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_STDC_HEADERS): Require AC_PROG_CPP.
+
+Mon May 17 18:01:09 1993  Karl Berry  (karl@hal.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Use variables gen_files and
+	gen_config in the loop that generates the output (Make)files,
+	instead of hardwiring the filenames.
+
+Sat May 15 17:23:19 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoconf.sh: Accept `-' to mean read stdin as input.
+	* autoheader.sh: Likewise.
+
+Fri May 14 12:41:02 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoheader.sh, acspecific.m4 (AC_PREPARE): If `LANG' environment
+	variable is set, reset its value to `C'.  This is so `tr [...]'
+	works more portably.
+
+Thu May 13 22:56:20 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (VOID_CLOSEDIR): Test closedir instead of assuming
+	that it works.  E.g. dynix closedir yields garbage, but has no
+	prototype.  Presumably Xenix closedir had the same problem, so
+	stop special-casing it.
+
+Wed May 12 20:25:36 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acconfig.h: Add HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE.

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): New macro.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): Include ctype.h instead of stdio.h.
+	We want it only to define __stub_* in glibc.  Using stdio.h lost
+	when it contained a conflicting prototype for $1; ctype.h has fewer
+	prototypes.
+
+	* acconfig.h: Add GETGROUPS_T.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_RANLIB): Use : instead of @: for no-op.
+	Some braindead make does bizarre magical things with @ in variables.
+
+Mon May 10 14:24:27 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): New feature.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Add more backslashes to character class
+	in DEFS filter (sigh).
+
+Sun May  9 14:04:31 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFINE_QUOTE): No AC_QUOTE_SED (was innermost).
+	(AC_HEADER_EGREP, AC_PROGRAM_EGREP, AC_TEST_CPP): Put a \ before
+	$DEFS in string to be evalled.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): Run DEFS through a sed filter that quotes things in it
+	from sed (woo woo!) before writing it into config.status.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA): Use AC_PROGRAM_EGREP to test for [CRAY
+	&& !CRAY2], instead of AC_TEST_PROGRAM.  No need to run a program
+	for this.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PROGRAM_CHECK): Extract the first word of $2
+	when looking for it in PATH, so it can be a program name with args.
+	Omit default assignment if $4 is empty.
+	Only write verbose msg if $1 was set nonempty.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_YACC): Pass 'bison -y' (quoted like that)
+	in list to AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK.  Don't test for bison later to add -y
+	flag.
+
+Sat May  8 00:23:58 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add a trailing newline in
+	code for AC_COMPILE_CHECK.  Otherwise it got spurious failures.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME): New macro.
+
+	* Makefile.in (dist): Depend on Makefile.  Use gzip instead
+	of compress.  Link files individually instead of en masse;
+	if a link fails, use `cp -f' on the losing file.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA): Define CRAY_STACKSEG_END (the
+	name of a function used in alloca.c) for CRAY-1, CRAY X-MP,
+	and CRAY Y-MP.
+
+Fri May  7 15:56:26 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Check for mach/mach.h, but don't
+	disable nlist checks if found.
+
+Fri May  7 04:59:25 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Don't look for `install' in
+	/usr/ucb.
+
+Thu May  6 20:41:35 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): The test program should choke on
+	#ifdef __stub___$1 as well.
+	(AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Make the test program choke on stubs.
+
+Wed May  5 20:43:13 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* autoconf.sh ($infile existence check): Fixed test for
+	nonemptiness of $print_version to not always be true.
+
+Wed May  5 17:22:42 1993  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREFIX, AC_PROGRAM_CHECK), acspecific.m4
+	(AC_PROG_INSTALL): If IFS wasn't set initially, give it a
+	normal default value.  Happens on LynxOS (x86), says
+	Pete Klammer <PKLAMMER@cudnvr.denver.colorado.edu>.
+
+Wed May  5 13:22:52 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Undefine the `shift' builtin.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_YACC): Use AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK to check for
+	both bison and yacc, instead of two AC_PROGRAM_CHECK uses.
+
+	* autoheader.sh ($# -eq 0): Set var $tmpout to name of temp file,
+	send stdout there instead of config.h.in.
+	(just before exit): If $# -eq 0, then move $tmpout to config.h.in
+	if $status -eq 0, or remove $tmpout otherwise.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_STRCOLL): Rewritten to use a test program that
+	verifies that `strcoll' does vaguely reasonable ordering.
+
+Tue May  4 19:59:00 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_DOUBLE): Don't explicitely echo
+	`checking for long double'.

+Sat May  1 22:37:55 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_DOUBLE): New macro.
+
+Wed Apr 28 15:52:42 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): Remove spurious `#endif' line at end.

+	Test $with_FOO, not $FOO.
+
+Wed Apr 21 18:14:19 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_QUOTE_TOKEN): New macro.

+
+Tue Apr 20 18:02:46 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT): Guess name of lex output file

+
+Mon Apr 19 15:46:24 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O): Do each compile a second time
+	after testing for the existence of the output.  Some compilers
+	refuse to overwrite an existing .o file with -o, though they will
+	create one.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT): Changed lex input to two lines
+	of "%%", not just one.
+
+Sat Apr 17 17:26:12 1993  Jim Meyering  (meyering@comco.com)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_COMPILE_CHECK): Don't print `checking for ...'
+	message if first argument is empty.
+
+Sat Apr 17 01:18:41 1993  Noah Friedman  (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PID_T): provide self.

+Fri Apr 16 11:57:35 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK): Take optional third arg; if
+	given, use it as the default value.
+

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Print a message under --verbose.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_HAVE_LIBRARY): Use m4's patsubst and translit
+	instead of running sed and tr at runtime.
+
+	* acconfig.h: Add STACK_DIRECTION.
+
+Wed Apr 14 17:08:47 1993  Roland McGrath  (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA): If we chose alloca.c, run a test

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Put test inside a for loop on

+
+	* Makefile.in (%.info): Removed pattern rule.

+
+2001-04-11  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (AC_F77_WRAPPERS): Mention C++ as well as C.
+	In the example, don't #ifdef F77_FUNC before using it, as that

+	that the user can test this to invoke alternative behavior.
+
+2001-04-11  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+	command line option processing.
+
+2001-04-10  Lars J. Aas  <larsa@sim.no>
+
+	* autoupdate.in (print_usage): print "\ at end of line does not

+
+2001-04-09  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Replace all tab characters with (8) spaces,
+	lest the formatting of example code, etcetera, be messed up.
+
+2001-04-09  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>

+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Rephrase various parts for clarity, felicity,

+	AC_CACHE_LOAD), so that the "Cache Files" section focuses solely
+	on features visible to end-users (e.g. to better fit the cross
+	references).  Various minor rewordings for clarity, felicity,
+	and/or grammar.
+
+2001-04-09  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Revert to "configure.in" in the history, since
+	"configure.ac" wasn't used in the past, and in any case it is
+	probably a good idea to preserve this section verbatim.
+
+2001-04-09  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* AUTHORS: Fix grammar.
+
+2001-04-09  Lars J. Aas  <larsa@sim.no>

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_TRY_CPP): Don't filter out conftest.$ac_ext

+
+2000-09-12  Pavel Roskin  <proski@gnu.org>

+2000-09-12  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	The test suite fails on some hosts because for instance
+	  AC_INIT
+	  AC_CHECK_FUNC(exit)
+	will not look for a compiler, it will just use `cc'.
+	Macros that need a compiler should require one.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_REQUIRE): New macro, which is actually the
+	previous version of AC_REQUIRE plus the possibility to distinguish
+	the name of the symbol being AC_PROVIDE'd, and the text to expand.
+	(AC_REQUIRE): Reimplement in terms of _AC_REQUIRE.
+	* aclang.m4 (AC_LANG_COMPILER, AC_LANG_COMPILER_REQUIRE)
+	(AC_LANG_COMPILER(C), AC_LANG_COMPILER(C++))

+	and checks whether it produces errors or warnings. Don't put grep
+	output into a variable, use another grep instead.
+	(AC_TRY_CPP): Use _AC_TRY_CPP. Copy conftest.err to config.log
+	if the case of an error.
+	* aclang.m4 (AC_LANG(C), AC_LANG(C++), AC_LANG(Fortran 77)):
+	define AC_LANG_ABBREV to the short language name.
+	(_AC_PROG_CPP_WORKS): New macro. It checks whether the current
+	preprocessor can be used to check for existence of headers.
+	Most code taken from ...
+	(AC_PROG_CPP): ... here. Use _AC_PROG_CPP_WORKS. Use shell
+	"for" to find working CPP. Use AC_LANG_PUSH(C) and AC_LANG_POP -
+	it's a macro for C only.
+	(AC_PROG_CXXCPP): Rewritten using _AC_PROG_CPP_WORKS.

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (_AC_OBJEXT): No longer use AC_COMPILE_IFELSE,
+	which uses $ac_objext hence depends upon _AC_OBJEXT.
+	* aclang.m4 (AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX, AC_PROG_F77): Call
+	_AC_OBJEXT before _AC_EXEEXT since the latter needs $ac_objext.
+
+2000-09-06  Bernard Dautrevaux  <dautrevaux@objectlive.com>

+	AM_FUNC_MKTIME, AM_FUNC_OBSTACK, AM_FUNC_STRTOD): Deactivate
+	their AU_ALIAS definition: Automake 1.4 does not quote the name of

+	substitution.
+	Fix its `oline' computation which was dead wrong when there are
+	empty lines (i.e., always).
+	Enhance it in order to look for and report unexpanded macro.
+	Don't let it pretend there are bugs in Autoconf (c:, the test
+	suite makes this scenario pretty unlikely as opposed to an actual
+	user bug.
+	Catch `m4_' too.
+	Remove the shell snippet which used to do this.

+	Currently, AC_PROG_LN_S incorrectly reports yes with DJGPP. This

+	Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Do that.
+	(_AC_CANONICAL_THING): Drop the support of `$nonopt'.
+
+
+	Documenting --build, --host and --target when configure does not

+	Suggested by Pavel Roskin.
+	Nevertheless configure must not die on such an `unsupported'
+	option: it does happen that people build an entire tree of

+	Stressed by Tom Tromey and Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (HELP_CANON): New diversion.

+2000-04-11  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoscan.pl: Reindent using 2 spaces, not 4.
+	Use `#' to denote Autoconf comments, not `dnl'.

+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_COMPILER): Use AC_LINK_IFELSE.
+	(AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC, AC_CHECK_LIB, AC_CHECK_FUNC): Don't check that

+	condition is enough.
+
+2000-03-25  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_COMPILE_IFELSE): New macros.

+2000-03-23  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+2000-03-23  Lars J. Aas  <larsa@sim.no>
+
+	* libm4.m4 (m4_do): New macro.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Provide a language independent means to generate language specific

+	(AC_LANG): Use it.
+	(AC_LANG_SOURCE, AC_LANG_SOURCE(C), AC_LANG_SOURCE(C++),
+	AC_LANG_SOURCE(FORTRAN77)): New macros.
+	(AC_TRY_COMPILER, AC_EGREP_CPP, AC_TRY_RUN_NATIVE): Use
+	AC_LANG_SOURCE.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Fix a bug: some macros (e.g., AC_REVISION, AC_COPYRIGHT etc.) can
+	be used before AC_INIT, but they do require it.  But then, the
+	argument of the explicit AC_INIT call is lost.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): New macro.
+	(_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Adjust.
+	(_AC_INIT): Pass your argument to AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR.

+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Start the language support overhaul: Introduce AC_LANG().
+

+	macros.
+	(AC_LANG_C, AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS, AC_LANG_FORTRAN): AU_DEFUN'ed.
+	Adjust all callers.

+	* tests/Makefile.am (FILTER_MACROS): Add AC_LANG.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Speed ups.
+
+	* libm4.m4 (m4_append, m4_list_append): Use m4_define, not define.
+	On my machine the former implementation takes 4mn 40s to run the
+	test suite.  Using m4_define leads to 4mn 15s.
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_SUBST): Use AC_EXPAND_ONCE (which uses
+	m4_define, not define).  4mn.
+	(_AC_DIVERT): Don't use m4_case.  Starting from those 4mn, if you
+	just move NORMAL* first in m4_case, the test suite is run in 3mn.
+	If instead of using m4, you use an `associative array' plus a
+	wrapper (current implementation), it falls to 2mn.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* tests/tools.m4 (autoconf --trace): New test.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.sh (task trace): Pipe the output of the first m4 into
+	the second one, instead of saving to a tmp file, so that we can
+	trace endless configure.in expansion.
+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Uniform idioms.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILES, _AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS,

+
+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+2000-03-21  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Give a means to compute `srcdir' earlier in configure.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): New macro, pulled out from...
+	(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): No longer compute `srcdir'.
+	(_AC_INIT): Use _AC_INIT_SRCDIR.
+	(AC_INIT): Don't forget to pass the argument to _AC_INIT.
+
+2000-03-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_SYS_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Don't test for existence
+	of $ac_xdir.  Not only is `test -e' not portable, but the test isn't
+	necessary at all;  the following mkdir ends up accomplishing the
+	same goal.  Suggestion from Alexandre Oliva.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE_ENVIRONMENT) [setting IFS]: Be careful
+	to use space, tab and new line, in precisely that order.
+
+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS): Rename as _AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS.

+	Adjust callers.
+
+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+	of the help snippet.
+
+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Give an identity to `configure' scripts.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PACKAGE): New macro.
+	(_AC_COPYRIGHT_SEPARATOR): Remove.
+	(AC_COPYRIGHT): Adjust.
+	(_AC_INIT_HELP, _AC_INIT_VERSION): Name the package you configure

+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Formatting changes.
+
+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Don't rely on RS = "\0" to swallow the whole input as a single
+	record, this is not portable: mawk and nawk understand it as RS =
+	"".  gawk understands it as expected.
+
+	* autoconf.sh (translate_awk::BEGIN): No longer change RS.
+	(translate_awk::body): Move to the END.
+	Instead, accumulate the input in `request'.
+
+2000-03-20  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Testing Values and Files): Be a subsection of
+	`Portable Shell Programming'.
+	(Shell Substitutions, Limitations of Usual Tools): New subsections.
+
+2000-03-17  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Use a single tool to reformat the raw `configure' script output by
+	m4.
+	Suggested by Paul Eggert.
+
+	* autoconf.sh: Stop playing with 2 seds and an AWK to finalize
+	`configure', a single AWK program is enough.
+
+2000-03-17  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	In Autoconf 2.13, although AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS did double quote its
+	arguments, AC_OUTPUT arguments 2 and 3 were not!  Currently,
+	AC_OUTPUT over quotes too: stop that.
+	Reported by Martin Buchholz.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Output): Don't expand on the ternary
+	AC_OUTPUT.
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Don't over quote $2 and $3.
+
+2000-03-17  Joseph S. Myers  <jsm28@cam.ac.uk>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_SYS_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Security fixes: create
+	the temp files in a private temporary directory, not directly in
+	TMPDIR.
+
+2000-03-17  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Install the IFS we need once for all.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE_ENVIRONMENT): New macro.
+	Handle the NLS envvars, and IFS.
+	(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Use it, no longer set the NLS envvars.
+	(_AC_WHICH_A, AC_PATH_PROG): Rely on the default IFS.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_INSTALL, AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES):
+	Likewise.
+
+2000-03-17  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_CPP, AC_EGREP_CPP, AC_TRY_COMPILE,
+	AC_TRY_LINK, AC_TRY_RUN_NATIVE): Simplify the removal of the
+	contest files: don't remove them before running the actions, just
+	remove them at the end of the macro.
+
+2000-03-16  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES): Use
+	  : ${foo='some words'}
+	not
+	  : ${foo=some words}
+	since this is not portable: Digital Unix v5.0: `bad substitution'.
+	From Nicolas Joly.
+
+2000-03-16  Lars J. Aas  <larsa@sim.no>
+
+	* libm4.m4 (m4_assert, m4_shiftn): New macros.
+	(m4_case,m4_match): Rewrite to use m4_shiftn (for readability reasons).
+	(m4_for): Add the STEP argument and some argument-verifying asserts.
+	(m4_split): Correct spaces to tabulator in regexp.
+
+2000-03-15  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Revamp AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES): Use a single cache
+	variable instead of three.
+	Use AC_CACHE_CHECK.
+	Shorten the name of the var loops, they are no longer cached.
+	Include sys/types.h unconditionally.
+	`select' returns an int, fixes Autoconf/46.
+	Don't display parens in the user messages.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoheader.sh: Use run_m4f, not run_m4.
+
+2000-03-14  John David Anglin  <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>
+
+	* tests/actest.m4 (AC_ENV_SAVE): Don't consider RANDOM and LINENO
+	which some shells update.  At least ksh on HP-UX 10.20 and sh on
+	IRIX 6.5 do change their `RANDOM' even if `read' via `set'.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_ARG_ENABLE, AC_ARG_WITH): No use for @%:@ here,
+	no need to over quote $1 in the comments.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Replace some ifelse with ifval or m4_default, or
+	even nothing when not needed.
+	* acspecific.m4: Likewise.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Insert the Autoconf version in
+	config.log, and the command line which ran configure.
+	Kill a couple of useless quote around dollars.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Kill a changequote in the
+	building of `ac_configure_args'.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERT): Rename _AC_DIVERT.
+	(AC_DIVERT): New macro.
+	Spread its use where better than a pair of AC_DIVERT_PUSH/POP.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_BINSH): Remove, useless now that...
+	(AC_REVISION): Require AC_INIT, not _AC_INIT_BINSH.
+	(AC_INIT): Do what _AC_INIT_BINSH used to.
+	Don't require _AC_INIT_VERSION, just call it.
+	Rename as _AC_INIT.
+	(AC_INIT): New macro, single expansion wrapper around _AC_INIT.
+	(_AC_COPYRIGHT_SEPARATOR): New.
+	(AC_COPYRIGHT): Use it.
+	Require AC_INIT, not _AC_INIT_VERSION.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Versions): Promote as first section of
+	`Setup'.
+	Rename as `Notices'.
+	Document AC_COPYRIGHT.
+	Don't give false reasons for placing AC_REVISION before AC_INIT,
+	the place no longer matters.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.sh (trace_m4::smash): Double quote, we don't want the
+	result to be evaluated.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: s/@%:@line __oline__/#line __oline__/g. __oline__
+	is not a macro, so there is just no use in avoiding `#'.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): When there were no
+	CONFIG_FILES, we had to expand _AC_OUTPUT_FILES into the KILL
+	diversion, because it is AC_OUTPUT_FILES which undiverted the
+	AC_SUBST sed script at its proper place, otherwise it would have
+	been undiverted at the end of `configure', leading to an sh syntax
+	error.
+	Now that we no longer use a diversion, we don't need to call
+	AC_OUTPUT_FILES if useless.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Rename as _AC_OUTPUT_FILES.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_LINKS): Rename as _AC_OUTPUT_LINKS.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	AC_ARG_PROGRAM must not be expanded twice, which is likely since
+	Automake calls it, and usually users do too.  If it happens,
+	`--program-prefix=g' actually prepend two (or more) `g'.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFUN_ONCE): New macro.
+	(AC_ARG_PROGRAM): AC_DEFUNed_ONCE.  Or is it AC_DEFUN_ONCE'd? :).
+	No longer AC_EXPAND_ONCE the help string, the macro itself is
+	expanded at most once.
+	Rename the here-doc tag EOF_SED as EOF.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Get rid of the ICMDS diversion.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERT): Remove ICMDS.
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS_INIT): New growing string.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_INIT, _AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Adjust.
+
+2000-03-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Introduce AC_SUBST(VAR, VAL).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Stop global double quoting,
+	failed experiment.
+	Merge all the var=val AC_SUBST(var) into AC_SUBST(var, val).
+	(AC_SUBST): Implement support for 2nd arg.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Setting Output Variables): Adjust.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Simplify the diversions naming system.
+	Suggested by Alexandre Oliva and Lars J. Aas
+
+	* libm4.m4 (ifndef): New macro.
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERT): New macro, maps a diversion name to
+	its value.  The diversions now have a short name, e.g., `NOTICE',
+	instead of the former macros which had long names, e.g.,
+	`AC_DIVERSION_NOTICE'.
+	(AC_DIVERT_PUSH): Adjust.
+	(AC_DIVERT_POP): Use ifndef.
+	(AC_DIVERSION_CURRENT): Rename as `AC_DIVERT_DIVERSION' to stay
+	within the `AC_DIVERT' name domain.
+	Adjust all callers.
+	* acspecific.m4: Adjust all callers.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Invoking autoconf): Update documentation of
+	`autoconf --trace'.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.sh (tmpbase): New var.  Adjust trap code and other tmp
+	file names.
+	(translate_awk::BEGIN): Set RS to "\0" so that the whole file be a
+	single record.
+	(translate_awk::trans): Convert from array to function.
+	(translate_awk::error): New function.
+	(translate_awk::main action): Implement support for ${sep}@ and
+	${sep}*.  Use trans() and error().
+	(translate_awk): Don't put space before user functions call, it is
+	not portable.
+	Remove trailing `;', this is not C :).
+	(task trace): Quote `$traces' when you eval it, to protect the
+	white spaces.
+	Propagate `translate_awk' failures to `autoconf.sh'.
+	Translate the quadrigraphs.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Trap on 0 is not executed when `exit' is called without argument.
+
+	* autoheader.sh (trap 1 2 13 15): s/exit/exit $?/.
+	* autoconf.sh: Likewise.
+	Remove translate_awk too.
+	* autoupdate.sh: Likewise.
+	Handle `--debug'.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	More uniform style in scripts.
+
+	* autoheader.sh: s/-eq/=/.
+	Uniform ordering of variable initializations, option handling.
+	Don't use quotes where useless (foo=$1, not foo="$1").
+	Propagate `run_m4' and `run_m4f'.
+	Use `$0' in --help.
+	* autoconf.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoreconf.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoupdate.sh: Likewise.
+	* ifnames.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoupdate.m4: Small bug: at the end `dnl' is disabled, so use
+	`m4_dnl'.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	`autoconf --trace': faster.
+
+	* autoconf.sh (initialization): New var, new option.
+	(option loop): When you need an arg, make sure there is one.
+	(run_m4f): New var, which content is that of the former...
+	(run_m4): Don't use m4 frozen state files.
+	Change all callers.
+	Don't pass AC_LOCALDIR, not documented, and unused.
+	(task trace): Honor `--verbose' and `--initialization'.
+	(globally): Send `--verbose' messages in stderr.
+	Fix random typos.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_BINSH): Removed.
+
+2000-03-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Start revamping `autoconf --trace'.
+
+	* autoconf.sh (debug): New var, new option.
+	Adjust the trap code.
+	(task trace): Instead of decoding `m4 --trace' with sed, decode it
+	with m4 itself.
+	($silent_m4): New file, which disables m4's `errprint'.
+	($trace_m4): New file.  Logistic for the m4 which is in charge of
+	decoding the traces of the first.
+	($translate_awk): Transform a user trace request into $trace_m4
+	code.
+
+2000-03-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Multiple `-e' to egrep are not portable.  On IRIX 6.5 and Solaris
+	2.5.1 only the last one is honored:
+	  > printf "foo\nbar\n" | egrep -e 'foo' -e 'bar'
+	  bar
+	  > printf "foo\nbar\n" | egrep -e 'bar' -e 'foo'
+	  foo
+	Reported by Nicolas Joly.
+	An alternative would have been to use `sed', unfortunately
+	alternation is not portable.
+
+	* tests/actest.m4 (join): New macro.
+	(AC_ENV_SAVE): Join the egrep patterns into a single big one.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (EGREP_EXCLUDE): Rename as FILTER_MACROS.
+	Join the egrep patterns into a single big one.
+
+2000-03-10  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_CHECK_TOOL_PREFIX): Correct typos in definition:
+	add `_' prefix to make the function name match comments and existing
+	uses.  Remove leading prefix from _AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
+
+2000-03-09  Ossama Othman  <ossama@debian.org>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS): Added some missing
+	headers if they exist (needed for some missing prototypes) and
+	corrects the signal handler prototype/definition.  The signal
+	handler prototype is now prepended with an `extern "C"' for C++
+	compilers since some platforms explicitly require an `extern "C"'
+	signal handler.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (autoheader::AC_CHECK_HEADERS_DIRENT): Rename as
+	(autoheader::_AC_CHECK_HEADERS_DIRENT): to cope with the new name
+	of the autoconf:: macro.
+	Fixes autoconf/119, reported by Raja R Harinath.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PATH_PROG, AC_OUTPUT_FILES, AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS):
+	Fix quotation problems in DOS path handling.
+
+2000-03-08  Franz Sirl  <Franz.Sirl-kernel@lauterbach.com>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_MMAP, AC_FUNC_ALLOCA): Make them C++
+	safe: include the right headers, cast the allocations etc.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	The argument of AC_COPYRIGHT should be plain text, not an sh
+	comment.
+
+	* libm4.m4 (m4_quote): s/$@/$*/.
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_COPYRIGHT): Prepend `# ' to the lines that go
+	on the top of `configure'.  Actually, prepend `@%:@ ' so that
+	there are as many evaluations on both sides.
+	(_AC_INIT_VERSION): No longer strip `# '.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (all-local): Remove.  It wastes time to have
+	testsuite rebuilt each time an ac*.m4 file changes.  It is enough
+	to build it for each `make check'.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Leave a diversion exclusively for Copyright notices.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERSION_DEFAULTS): New diversion number.
+	(_AC_INIT_NOTICE): Move definition of `ac_includes_default' from
+	here...
+	(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): to here.
+	(_AC_INIT_NOTICE): Play with your diversion yourself, don't let
+	(AC_INIT): do it for you.
+	(_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): New macro.
+	(AC_INIT): Use it.
+
+2000-03-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Provide a means to specify more Copyright information in
+	`configure'.  And after all, it suits to `configure --version' too.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DIVERSION_DEFAULTS, AC_DIVERSION_INIT_PREPARE):
+	New diversion numbers.
+	(AC_DIVERSION_INIT): Rename as...
+	(AC_DIVERSION_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): this.

+	Don't mess with changequote, just quote properly.
+	Bug 1.  Because of the `#' in `ac_dA', the quotes <<>> were not
+	removed, and therefore the sed script contained `<<define>>'
+	instead of `define'.  Now that the block is properly quoted, there
+	is no need to quote `define'.
+	Bug 2.  Once a `#define' substitution performed, we were branching
+	to the top of the sed script (`t top').  This resulted in an
+	endless substitution of `#define foo 1' to `#define foo 1'.
+	Branching is not enough: you also have to fetch the next input
+	line, i.e., use `t' instead of `t t' in ac_dD, and don't output
+	`: top' in `config.defines'.
+	Though it was correct for `#undef' templates, just apply the same
+	transformation to `ac_uD' and `config.undefs'.
+	Bug 3.  Don't try to preserve what was behind the value in the
+	template, since on
+		#define NAME "bar baz"
+	it leads to
+		#define NAME 1 baz"
+	Now `ac_dB' catches everything behind the NAME (making sure there
+	is at least a space) and `ac_dC' only outputs a space.

+2000-02-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	The AU-glue code for AC_LINK_FILES was not fully compatible: in

+	(AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, AC_CONFIG_LINKS, AC_CONFIG_HEADERS,
+	AC_CONFIG_FILES): Use it, and also temporarily divert to -1
+	instead of spamming dnl everywhere.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Make sure to output the INIT-CMDS
+	before the other sections, it'd be a pity to initialize after the
+	use :).
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Configuration Actions): New section,
+	documenting the common behavior of AC_CONFIG_FILES,
+	AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, macro AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, and AC_CONFIG_LINKS.

+	All the ``callers'' updated.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS): Don't use `break' to exit the
+	while loops which are breaking conftest.defines and
+	conftest.undefs into smaller snippets: just use the proper
+	condition for the while.
+	Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Configuration Commands): New section, for

+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Clean up autoconf.
+

+	Autoconf, and the body.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Improve support of name spaces in libm4.  Put the m4 builtins

+	in the `libm4' name space.
+	(m4_disable, m4_enable): Use the private m4_indir, otherwise once

+	means to reopen a name space.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Output really nothing if AC_INIT was not given.  Unconditional
+	output can be problematic with autoupdate.

+
+	Adapt autoheader to use libm4's name spaces.
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_HOOK): Removed.

+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Clean up a bit the user interface.
+
+	* autoconf.sh: Give your name while reporting errors.
+	Don't spit --help for errors on arguments.
+	* autoreconf.sh: Likewise.

+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Introduction): m4 1.4 is now required.
+	(Invoking autoconf): A better help on --trace.
+	(Defining Symbols): Advocate a proper use of the quotes in m4
+	code, including if the quotes are sometimes useless.  It is bad,
+	very bad not to quote properly, so quote all the examples
+	properly.
+	(Cache Files): Use a unary call to define, instead of an empty
+	$2.
+	(Using System Type): Watch out TeX wrapping.
+	(Pretty Help Strings): Don't give too long a snippet of --help.
+	Promote the coding style of Autoconf.  Quote properly.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PRO): Use AC_PROVIDE instead of defining
+	yourself.  This allows to see everything that is AC_PROVIDEd via
+	autoconf --trace.
+	(AC_SPECIALIZE): define'd, not AC_DEFUN'd.
+	(AC_PROVIDE): Use define with a single arg, instead of an empty $2.
+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (ac_includes_default): Don't use simple quotes, but

+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Arrange that config.status creates the file with the AC_SUBSTing

+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST, AC_FUNC_MMAP,
+	AC_FUNC_SETPGRP, AC_FUNC_VFORK, AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES): Use #if,

+	(AC_VAR_IF_SET, AC_CHECK_MEMBER, AC_CHECK_LIB, AC_CHECK_HEADER,

+
+2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	It seems quite delicate to have AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT insert the
+	default headers in the INIT section of configure: the reason is
+	that AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT is called unquoted, and this results in
+	an un expected behavior.  Thanks to Roman V. Shaposhnick for the
+	details.
+
+	The current implementation is not satisfying: the default headers
+	are defined in the INIT section even if they are not used.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (Prologue of AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULTS): Dump the
+	definition of ac_includes_default in the INIT section of
+	configure.
+	(AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULTS): Use it.

+2000-02-07  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Stay in Autoconf's name space.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS): Prefixed with 'ac_':

+2000-02-07  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+
+2000-02-07  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Start a new series of tests which check the semantics.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_MEMBER): It is not smart to define
+	ac_Foo, and use AC_Foo.  Got rid of AC_Member_Aggregate and
+	AC_Member_Member which were complicating more than simplifying.
+	(AC_CHECK_DECLS): Use m4 lists.
+	(AC_CHECK_TYPES): A comma was missing.
+	* autoheader.m4: (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Use m4 lists.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Generic Declarations): AC_CHECK_DELCS uses m4

+	Test AC_CHECK_MEMBERS, AC_CHECK_DECLS and AC_CHECK_TYPES.

+
+2000-02-04  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Hide AH_HOOK behind AH_DEFUN.
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_DEFUN): New macro.  Combination of define and

+	AC_CHECK_TYPE, AC_FUNC_ALLOCA, AC_CHECK_TYPES, AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED,

+
+2000-02-04  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_RSH, AC_ARG_ARRAY, AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): No use
+	to hide, you are DEFUNCT.
+
+1999-11-14  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.texi (Invoking ifnames): ifnames no longer supports
+	--macrodir.
+
+1999-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Run the `syntax' test on acgeneral macros too.
+	Fix the bugs discovered.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CANONICAL_THING): Quote the
+	AC_REQUIRE([AC_CANONICAL_HOST]).  Bug triggered by the use of
+	AC_CANONICAL_BUILD alone in configure.in.  Also, quote the
+	arguments of macros (eg, ifelse([$1]...), not ifelse($1...)).
+	(m4_case): New macro.
+	(AC_LINKER_OPTION): Don't clash with user's name space
+	(s/i/ac_link_opt).
+	(AC_LIST_MEMBER_OF).  You mean AC_FATAL, not AC_MSG_ERROR.
+	Quote properly the argument.
+	dnl out the empty lines that result from m4 pure code.
+	Don't pollute the user name space.
+	Use AC_SHELL_IFELSE.
+	(AC_F77_NAME_MANGLING): Don't use `test -o'.  There are still
+	name space problems.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (macros.m4): Also fetch the macros from
+	acgeneral.m4.
+
+1999-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Really install this patch.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_MSG_ERROR, AC_MSG_ERROR_UNQUOTED): Allow an
+	optional $2: exit status.
+
+1999-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Check that the AC_DEFINEs from acspecific.m4 do have a template.
+	Fix the discovered bugs.
+
+	* tests/atgeneral.m4 (AT_CHECK): Don't just exit 1 when you want
+	to propagate the failure of a test: exit with the same exit
+	status, at least to preserve 77 (=ignore).
+	* tests/syntax.m4 (TEST_MACRO): Run also autoheader.  Don't run
+	this test on all the macros, some just cannot run without
+	arguments.
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): In the if egrep/fi for
+	#define templates, add a `:' to prevent syntax errors in
+	config.status when there are no AC_DEFINE performed.
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_TEMPLATE): Don't use _AC_SH_QUOTE here, use it
+	in...
+	(AH_VERBATIM): here.  Now AH_C_UNSIGNED_CHAR is no longer failing
+	(formerly it would produce a non backslashed backquote, which
+	made sh choke).
+
+1999-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Introduce a means to distinguish failures of `configure' due to
+	extern software (so that the test suite doesn't fail on them).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_MSG_ERROR, AC_MSG_ERROR_UNQUOTED): Allow an
+	optional $2: exit status.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Document.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_WORKS, PROG_CXX_WORKS,
+	AC_PROG_F77_WORKS): Exit 77 if the compiler does not work.
+
+1999-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Clean up a bit the handling of the LANG stack.  More is needed.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_LANG_CASE): New macro.
+	(AC_LANG_RESTORE): Use m4_case.
+	(AC_LINKER_OPTION): Use AC_LANG_CASE.
+
+1999-11-11  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.texi (Generic Declarations): Fixed a typo which
+	prevented `make distcheck' from succeeding.
+	* texinfo.tex: Updated for the same reasons.
+
+1999-11-11  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Introduce a new style of testing, independent from DejaGNU.
+
+
+	Introduce the logistics.
+
+	* configure.in: Initialize AT, and output tests/atconfig, and
+	tests/Makefile.
+	* m4/atconfig.m4: New file.
+	* m4/Makefile.am: Adjusted.
+	* aclocal.m4: Include atconfig.m4.
+	* Makefile.am: Adjusted.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: New file.
+	* tests/atgeneral.m4: Likewise.
+	* tests/atconfig.in: Likewise.
+
+
+	Write tests.
+
+	* tests/syntax.m4: New file, in charge of checking the validity of
+	the sh code produced by the macros defined in acspecific.m4.
+	acgeneral.m4 is not checked here, because these macros require
+	arguments.
+	* tests/suite.m4: New file.  Run syntax.m4.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	A test suite will be introduced which tries to run all the
+	specific macros, but hasbeen'd macro make configure die with bad
+	exit status.  So we wish to distinguish live macros from defunct
+	macros at the moment they are AC_DEFUN'd, not in their body.  Hm,
+	defunct, defunct... Hey!  That's a good name!
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFUNCT): New macro, comparable to AC_DEFUN,
+	but for macros which are no longer defined.  Replaces AC_HASBEEN.
+	(AC_HASBEEN): Defunct.  Well, removed in fact.
+	(AC_HAVE_LIBRARY): Don't use AC_DEFUN and AC_HASBEEN, just
+	AC_DEFUNCT.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_UNISTD_H, AC_USG, AC_MEMORY_H, AC_DIR_HEADER,
+	AC_INT_16_BITS, AC_LONG_64_BITS): Likewise.
+	(AC_XENIX_DIR): It was defunct even before I declared it was: was
+	depending upon AC_DIR_HEADER which is defunct.  So AC_DEFUNCT'ed
+	now.
+	(AC_DYNIX_SEQ, AC_IRIX_SUN, AC_SCO_INTL): While we're here, you
+	too are defunct now.
+	* autoconf.texi (Obsolete Macros): Replace the documentation of
+	AC_HASBEEN with that of AC_DEFUNCT.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoconf.sh: Formatting changes.
+	Removed development junk.
+	* acspecific.m4: Formatting changes.
+	* autoconf.m4: Likewise.
+	* autoheader.m4: Likewise.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Let Autoconf use autoconf's `--install'.
+
+	* m4/Makefile.am: New file.
+	* m4/init.am: New file, required by Automake.
+	* m4/missing.am: Likewise.
+	* m4/sanity.am: Likewise.
+	* aclocal.m4: Include them.
+	* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): Added m4/Makefile.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Make autoconf support --install.
+
+	* autoconf.sh (task install): New task.  Extract the set of
+	auxiliary m4 files a configure.in depends upon.  Install links
+	from library files to the local dir so that the packages depends
+	only on local extensions.  Check that the user includes exactly
+	the files she needs.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Require GNU m4 1.4 (well 1.3 in fact).
+
+	Because we are ready to handle the case where there are no frozen
+	files, we *have* to pass a -I, which is dangerous in conjunction
+	with the silent including of `aclocal.m4': you may include things
+	that were not expected.  Since anyway handling pre 1.3 complicates
+	the task, just require an m4 which supports reloading of frozen
+	files.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_GNU_M4): Check for --reload.
+	* autoconf.sh: Likewise
+	* autoheader.sh: Likewise.
+	* configure.in: Explicitly state the m4 version you want.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	No need for foo="`bar`", foo=`bar` is fine.
+	Simplify ${foo} and ${1} into $foo and $1.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (ac_LF_and_DOT): Remove the double quotes.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_C_O, AC_PROG_F77_C_O): Likewise.
+	* autoconf.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoheader.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoreconf.sh: Likewise.
+	* autoupdate.sh: Likewise.
+	* ifnames.sh: Remove all the code and messages related to
+	AC_MACRODIR, since ifnames is not related to macros in anyway.
+
+1999-11-10  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	New version of AC_INCLUDE, which does not glob, nor rely upon the
+	shell.  Add AC_INCLUDES too.  Help tracking multiple inclusions.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (m4_errprint, m4_warn, m4_fatal): New macros,
+	variations around errprint.
+	(m4_include_unique): New macro which registers what are the files
+	already included, and warns if some are included several times.
+	(m4_include, m4_sinclude): New macro, using m4_include_unique.
+	(AC_INCLUDE): Is now just a wrapper of m4_include.
+	(AC_INIT): Use m4_sinclude, not sinclude.
+	(_AC_ERRPRINT): Removed, m4_errprint is here!
+	(AC_WARNING, AC_FATAL): Wrappers of m4_warn and m4_fatal.
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoheader.sh: No longer rely on a system acconfig.h.
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Be kind to Automake: list the arguments of selected macros
+	(for instance AC_SUBST will list each variable which may be
+	substitued).
+
+	* autoconf.sh (--trace, --output): New options.
+	Implement tracing of macros.
+	trap also on 0, so that there is no need to rm here and there.
+	* autoconf.texi (Output): Document --trace and --output.
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Clean up the macros for testing members of aggregates.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_MEMBER): FATAL if $1 has no dot in it.
+	Use AC_INCLUDE_DEFAULTS.
+	(AC_C_STRUCT_MEMBER): Removed.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE): Adapted to AC_CHECK_MEMBERS.
+	(AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE, AC_STRUCT_ST_RDEV): Adapted to
+	AC_CHECK_MEMBERS and obsoleted.
+	(AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS): Adapted to AC_CHECK_MEMBERS.
+	* autoconf.texi (AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE, HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_RDEV):
+	Explain they are obsoleted, and how to migrate.
+	(AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS, AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE): Explain that the
+	AC_DEFINE changed (but the former #defines remain defined
+	currently).
+	(AC_C_STRUCT_MEMBER): Removed, replaced by the definitions of
+	AC_CHECK_MEMBER and AC_CHECK_MEMBERS.
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Install a uniform set of default includes.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT): New macro.  Expands in its
+	argument if non empty, otherwise a default list of includes.
+	(AC_CHECK_DECL, AC_CHECK_TYPE_INTERNAL): Use AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT.
+	* autoconf.texi: Adjusted.
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_FUNC_ALLOCA, AH_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED, AH_AIX):
+	Don't leave `[]dnl' in pseudo #-comment (actually CPP directives).
+
+1999-11-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Fix a bit of the brokenness of AC_CHECK_TYPE.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_TYPE_INTERNAL): New macro, inspired from
+	the former AC_CHECK_TYPE.  This macro is exactly the one that
+	ought to be named AC_CHECK_TYPE: it just checks, and executes user
+	actions.  In the future, this macro ought to be renamed
+	AC_CHECK_TYPE.
+	There is a big difference with the former AC_CHECK_TYPE: instead
+	of grepping in the headers, it tries to compile a variable

+
+	Provide a means to specify commands to run before config.status is

+
+	This is typically needed by Automake so that AC_REPLACEd functions

+	(AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS): Run the AC_LIST_HEADERS_COMMANDS.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Once config.status created, before
+	running it, trap to `exit 1' so that config.status is not removed
+	if configure is interrupted when config.status is complete.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): When recognizing
+	arguments, accept only foo, and no longer foo:foo.in etc.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Formating changes.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	config.status: Speed up the creation of config headers (about four
+	times faster on Linux).
+
+	The previous scheme had three sed commands for each AC_DEFINE: one
+	for #define templates, and two for #undef templates (with or
+	without trailing spaces).  Divide this in three sed scripts
+	instead: a one liner that removes the trailing spaces, one for
+	#defines, and then the last for #undef.
+
+	The real speed up comes from the fact that the #define script
+	starts by checkin if the current input line has a #define, and if
+	not the script immediately goes to the next line, without running
+	the rest of the script as was the case before.  Equally for the
+	#undef script.
+
+	Note that this way, users that don't use #define templates don't
+	pay too much the overhead, since the sed script `realizes' quickly
+	there are no #define lines.  My test case runs in 0.32s with
+	#define templates, and 0.24s without.  To improve this common
+	case, the whole code for #define templates is conditionalized by a
+	proper egrep call.  The result runs is 0.24s, i.e., almost no cost
+	at all.
+
+	I made one dangerous change that I carefully evaluated before
+	commiting: the sed scripts are cut at 48 lines instead of 12 as
+	before.  This produces here docs of about 4Kb.  I checked many
+	`configure's and they all have big here documents, much bigger
+	than the 12 lines (for instance AC_FUNC_MMAP produces a 150 lines
+	long, 3800+ character here document).  So I moved to the well
+	known HP UX sed limitations: no more than 100 commands, and there
+	are two commands per line now, plus a two command preamble.  The
+	speed up is noticeable.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS): Remove the ac_e
+	family.
+	Changed ac_uD and ac_dD to `...;t t', instead of `...g'.
+	Instead of creating `conftest.vals' with both ac_e, ac_d,
+	and ac_u family, preprocess to strip the trailing spaces, and
+	create `conftest.defines' with the ac_d family, and then
+	`conftest.undefs' for the ac_e family.
+	Break up both `conftest.defines' and `conftest.undefs'.  Insert a
+	top label and a global test for `#defines' and `#undef' before.
+	Call `conftest.defines' if there are #define in the input.
+	Call `conftest.undefs'.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Prefer `>file' over `> file' etc.
+	* acspecific.m4: Likewise.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Rename the family AC_NEED_DECL as AC_CHECK: it is more uniform,
+	but keep defining NEED_FOO_DECL when `foo' is not declared.  Files
+	not using Autoconf behave better when declarations lacks than when
+	they are wrong.  So the unset position should off, hence #if NEEDS
+	instead of #if !HAVE (which is triggered when HAVE is not set).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_NEED_DECL): Rename as...
+	(AC_CHECK_DECL): This.  Make sure the arguments are the usual
+	IF-FOUND, IF-NOT-FOUND.
+	(AC_NEED_DECLS, AC_CHECK_DECLS): Likewise.
+	* autoconf.texi (Generic Declarations): Document the changes
+	aforementioned.
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_NEED_DECLS): Rename as
+	(AH_CHECK_DECLS): This.
+	(AH_HOOKS): Hook AH_CHECK_DECLS on AC_CHECK_DECLS instead of
+	_NEED_.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Revamp the handling of the arguments of config.status: instead of
+	looping over config_files etc. to recognize the file names, use
+	the case which handles the options.
+	Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (ifset): Rename as...
+	(ifval): This.  All callers changed.
+	(ifset): New macro, which tests if a macro is set to a non empty
+	value.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Initialize growing lists and strings to empty, to
+	ease the tests.
+	(AC_CONFIG_HEADER): Quote AC_LIST_HEADERS in the define, to handle
+	the case AC_LIST_HEADERS is initialized.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: (AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): New macro, pulled out
+	from...
+	(AC_OUTPUT): Instead of using $1, $2 and $3, pass them to the
+	official macros (AC_CONFIG_FILES, AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS).
+	Call AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS.
+	(option handling): Use the case-esac to recognize arguments.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS): Fix the missing fi;done.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Add a means to specify commands to be run by config.status.  At
+	the difference of AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS, require that the set of
+	commands be named, so that both
+		CONFIG_COMMANDS=foo ./config.status
+	and
+		./config.status foo
+	perform the Right Thing.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CONFIG_UNIQUE): Also check in
+	AC_LIST_COMMANDS.
+	(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove a dead pushdef.
+	(AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS): New macro.
+	(AC_LIST_COMMANDS): New config list.
+	(AC_LIST_COMMANDS_COMMANDS): New growing string.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS_COMMANDS): New macro, output config commands
+	in config.status.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): Take AC_LIST_COMMANDS into account.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): Call AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS_COMMANDS.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	New macro: AC_CONFIG_FILES which is very much like AC_OUTPUT but
+	that one associates commands to run when a config file is created.
+	For instance for a shell script `foo', one uses
+	AC_CONFIG_FILES(foo, chmod +x foo).
+
+	In addition, check that the same name is never used twice in
+	config files, headers, subdirs and links.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (m4_append): Don't insert new line between
+	elements.
+	(m4_list_append): New macro.
+	(AC_CONFIG_IF_MEMBER): New macro which tests if a file is member
+	of a config list.
+	(AC_CONFIG_UNIQUE): New macro which ensures that a config file
+	name is not yet used.
+	(AC_CONFIG_HEADER, AC_CONFIG_LINKS, AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): Use
+	AC_CONFIG_UNIQUE.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CONFIG_FILES): New macro.
+	(AC_LIST_FILES): New list, which stores arguments of
+	AC_CONFIG_LISTS the same as AC_LIST_LINKS stores AC_CONFIG_LINKS
+	etc.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): No longer rely on $1 to designate the config files:
+	register them via AC_CONFIG_FILES.  All uses of $1 replaced by
+	uses of AC_LIST_FILES.
+	(AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Run the commands associated to the
+	CONFIG_FILES.
+
+1999-10-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+	the test is obsolete.
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_BINSH, AC_PROG_SED): Don't quote the name

+	by AC_SUBST.  The latter was changed, but not the former.
+	Bug triggered with FOO='%\c' AC_SUBST(FOO).
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Fix the sed quoting script.
+
+1999-10-05  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	When you rely on the `t' flag of sed for the immediately
+	preceding substitution, use a combination of `: foo; t foo'.
+	Bug triggered if you AC_DEFINE(FOO, "%").
+	Additionally, work around a bug in IRIX sed.
+	Suggested by Ken Pizzini.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Added a label and a test in the
+	sed code of `$ac_cs_root.hdr'.

+
+	Implement AC_PATH_TOOL.

+	Reported by H.J. Lu.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (m4_split): Support a second optional argument: a

+	(m4_compare): New macro, compares arbitrary long m4 lists of
+	integers.
+	(AC_PREREQ_SPLIT, AC_PREREQ_CANON, AC_PREREQ_COMPARE): Removed,

+
+1999-10-02  Akim Demaille  <demaille@inf.enst.fr>

+
+1999-10-02  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	AC_DIR_HEADERS is hasbeen'ed.

+
+1999-10-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Make the handling of the configuration links (AC_LINK_FILES)
+	exactly the same as that of configurations files (AC_OUTPUT_FILES)
+	and headers (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS).  As a result, it is sane to run
+		./config.status src/libmy_lib
+	or
+		CONFIG_LINKS=src/lib_mylib:lib/lib_mylib ./config.status
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_LINK_FILES): Use AC_FATAL to diagnose bad
+	number of argument.
+	Obsoleted (but implemented) in favor of AC_CONFIG_LINKS.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CONFIG_LINKS): New macro.  Takes space
+	separated list of DEST:SOURCES arguments.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Rename each occurence of AC_LIST_HEADER as
+	AC_LIST_HEADERS for consistency.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT, config.status prologue): Move the
+	definition of config_files and config_headers to the top.

+	* autoconf.texi (Output, AC_OUTPUT): Mention AC_CONFIG_LINKS.
+	(Invoking config.status): Mention CONFIG_LINKS.
+
+	* autoconf.texi (Using System Type): Document AC_CONFIG_LINKS.
+	Explicit the obsoleteness of AC_LINK_FILES.
+
+1999-10-01  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Moving most of the task of creating config.h.in from sh to m4.
+	Getting rid of acconfig.h by supply a major new family of macros:
+	AH_* which make it possible to insert arbitrary text into
+	config.h.in.
+
+	* autoheader.m4: Major rewrite: introduction of a set of macros
+	AH_ that produce code into config.h.in.  There are two sets of
+	macros: generic macros, or specialized, documented below.  The
+	basic idea is that an AC_FOO macro which needs an entry in
+	config.h.in should have a sibling AH_FOO which expands into that
+	entry.  In a near future, these macros will be moved next to their
+	siblings.
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (AH_VERBATIM, AH_DEFINE, AH_DEFINE, AH_NEED_DECLS,
+	AH_CHECK_SIZEOF, AH_CHECK_FUNCS, AH_CHECK_HEADERS,
+	AH_CHECK_HEADERS, AH_CHECK_LIB, AH_PROG_LEX, AH_FUNC_ALLOCA,
+	AH_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED, AH_AIX, AH_F77_WRAPPERS): New macros.
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (End section): Bind AC_ macros to their
+	AH_siblings.
+
+	* autoheader.sh: Remove the sections in charge of SYMS, TYPES,
+	FUNCS, HEADERS, LIBS and DECLS: autoheader.m4 is now in charge of
+	these.
+
+	* autoheader.sh (options): Added -d, --debug, which does not
+	remove the temporary files.
+
+	* autoheader.sh: Instead of redirecting stdout to the output
+	stream, always output to a temporary file.  This allows to change
+	slightly the consistency check: before autoheader would check that
+	each non documented AC_DEFINE is templated in an acconfig.  Now it
+	just checks whether the template is in the output file.
+
+	* acconfig.h: Completely emptied, the remaining templates
+	(_ALL_SOURCE, __CHAR_UNSIGNED__, F77_FUNC, F77_FUNC_,
+	HAVE_STRINGIZE, and STACK_DIRECTION) are now either associated to
+	their AC_DEFINE, or to one of the new AH_ macros.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4: Reordering of the m4 macros which are not specific
+	to Autoconf.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_HAVE_LIB): Promoted from obsolete to hasbeen.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_TR_CPP): Fixed quoting problem, and missing ^
+	in patsubst.
+	(AC_TR_SH): Fixed quoting problem.
+
+1999-09-29  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_WRAP): Don't output an extra space after the
+	last word.
+
+1999-09-29  Ben Elliston  <bje@cygnus.com>
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Check for the kstat_open()
+	function in libkstat (on systems such as Solaris). This family of
+	functions is preferred since they don't require setgid permissions
+	to use them. Fix for PR autoconf/65.
+
+1999-09-29  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+
+1999-09-29  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+	X_DISPLAY_MISSING, YYTEXT_POINTER): Removed their autoheader
+	template.  They are now documented with their own AC_DEFINE.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_HASBEEN): New macro.  Same as AC_OBSOLETE, but
+	dies.
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_UNISTD_H, AC_USG, AC_MEMORY_H, AC_INT_16_BITS,
+	AC_LONG_64_BITS): Promoted from obsolete to hasbeen.
+
+	* autoheader.m4 (AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): Define via AC_DEFINE, so
+	that we program things only once.
+	(AC_DEFINE): Use AC_WRAP and _AC_SH_QUOTE.  It is now safe to have
+	backquotes and extra spaces in the third argument, without
+	yielding a bad result.
+
+	* autoheader.m4: Instead of a huge `eval', use a temporary file.
+	(option handling): Added --debug, to keep the temporary files.
+	Fixed a couple of missing quotes.

+1999-09-28  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Change the root of filenames of

+	The previous patch to make config.status reentrant was wrong,
+	because it changed some `conftest' that are used by configure into
+	`$conftest', while it was for config.status only.  To avoid

+	(AC_OUTPUT): Rename the uses of `ac_file' for the sed fragments as
+	`ac_sed_frag'.
+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): This macro used to open the here
+	documents that configure uses to generate config.status, included
+	that of the submacros.  Now, it no longer handles the here
+	documents for its subroutines (it was far to hard to track).
+	(AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Open and close your here documents to

+
+	* autoheader.sh: Take the multiple-include protection back out.
+	It's not needed for a file that just #defines stuff, and, as Ken
+	Raeburn pointed out in Apr 1994:
+	Since you don't make it optional, and you don't give the writer of

+	(AC_FUNC_STRFTIME): Check for it in -lintl only if it's not in the

+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_AIX, AC_MINIX): Remove warnings about AC_TRY_LINK.
+	These macros don't change the linkage options.
+
+	* Test release 2.10.2.

+
+	* acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_COMPILE, AC_TRY_LINK): Deal with smart
+	compilers that know that an unused function doesn't have to be
+	linked in: call the function directly from main().
+	(Removing a legacy from when they tried to run the code, I think-djm.)
+	From fnf@ninemoons.com (Fred Fish).
+
+	* acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Rename ac_save_LIBS to avoid
+	a clash with AC_CHECK_LIB.
+	From Jim Meyering.
+	(AC_FUNC_FNMATCH, AC_FUNC_MMAP, AC_FUNC_VFORK, AC_FUNC_WAIT3,
+	AC_FUNC_STRCOLL, AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Rename cache variables to avoid

+
+	getopt: refine syntax of previous change
+	* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (getopt): Use a more concise test.
+
+2011-01-15  Stefano Lattarini  <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+	getopt: remove hack for special handling of "-" argument
+
+	Older versions of Getopt::Long acted bogusly and died when they
+	where configured with the 'bundling' flag and an argument '-' was
+	seen on the command line they were parsing.  That is no longer
+	the case though, and has not been for quite a long time: the bug
+	is no longer present in the 5.6.2 version of perl and the 2.25
+	version of Getopt::Long (and today, the latest versions of perl
+	and Getopt::Long are respectively 5.14.2 and 2.38).  The obsolete
+	workaround for that Getopt::Long bug can thus be removed from our
+	'getopt' function.
+
+	It is also worth noting that such a workaround was quite buggy
+	and brittle itself; for example, a command like this:
+	  "autom4te --output -"
+	would have caused the incorrect diagnostic:
+	  "autom4te: option `--output' requires an argument"
+	Much worse, a command like this:
+	  "autom4te --language=autoconf --output - configure.ac"
+	would have caused the standard input of autom4te to be processed
+	and copied into the 'configure.ac' file, deleting its pre-existing
+	content!  Surely not what a user would have expected.
+
+	After this change, a command like this:
+	  autom4te --language=autoconf --output - - <configure.ac >out
+	works as expected, processing the input from 'configure.ac' and
+	writing it to the 'out' file.
+
+	* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (use): Require perl version 5.6.2.
+	(getopt): Remove the old workaround.
+
+2012-01-15  Jim Meyering  <meyering@redhat.com>
+
+	avoid new warning about undefined $ARGV[0]
+	* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (getopt): Avoid warning induced by
+	yesterday's change: $ARGV[0] may not be defined, e.g., when
+	invoked via autoreconf.
+
+2011-01-14  Stefano Lattarini  <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+	getopt: fix diagnostic for missing mandatory option argument
+	Before this change, an incorrect command line usage:
+	  "autom4te --output"
+	triggered broken diagnostic like:
+	  "autom4te: unrecognized option `--output'"
+	instead of the expected and correct:
+	  "autom4te: option `--output' requires an argument"
+	* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (getopt): Give correct diagnostic in
+	case of usage errors due to missing arguments for options for
+	which they are mandatory.  Code basically copied from automake's
+	'parse_arguments' private subroutine.
+
+2012-01-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	doc: mention Bash 2.03 bug with backslash-newline

+	(Backslash-Newline-Empty): Rename from Backslash-Newline-Newline.
+	Mention problem with Bash 2.03.
+
+	doc: clarify sed buffer limit
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Usual Tools):
+	That 4000-byte limit applies to output and internal buffers, too.

+
+	docs: more details about make VPATH rewriting woes
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Automatic Rule Rewriting): Solaris make
+	VPATH rewriting applies to any whitespace-separated word in a
+	rule, so it might apply also to shell variables, functions

+	AC_C_CONST: don't reject gcc -Werror -Wall
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_CONST): Don't reject gcc when it is used
+	with -Werror -Wall during configuring.  It's unwise to use GCC
+	that way, but apparently enough people do it nowadays that it's an
+	issue.  These days nobody uses the old compilers that the old
+	tests reject, so we can't test this fix against them, but it's
+	more important to work with modern GCC (even when misused) than to
+	work with no-longer-used compilers.  Problem reported by Shevek in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2008-11/msg00007.html>
+	and raised again by Dan Kegel in

+	Diagnose and guard against write errors dealing with config.status.
+	The general idea is this: all write failures from `configure'
+	writing `config.status' are indicated by $ac_write_error, which
+	is only checked at the end.  This is safe because config.status
+	code is not executed before the file is complete.  Other write
+	failures, be they inside config.status, or in sub shell/awk
+	scripts spawned from configure or config.status, typically need
+	earlier checking, as their results are used right afterwards.

+	before writing config.status, check afterwards.
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_FILES_PREPARE, _AC_OUTPUT_FILE)

+	output to stdout.
+	Suggestion for catching write errors by Bruno Haible.

+	Remove racy commands to build scripts in bin/ and tests/.
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Now that scripts in bin/ and tests/
+	are guaranteed to be built, remove the rules that tried to build
+	them.  Before, with a parallel build, these rules could lead to
+	two processes writing tests/wrapper.in concurrently.
+
+	Build in man/ only *after* building in bin/ and tests/.
+	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): The man-page-creation process runs $(MAKE)
+	in both bin/ and tests/.
+
+	Accommodate non-srcdir build-from-checkout.
+	* build-aux/git-version-gen: Require an additional parameter: $srcdir.
+	Use git's --git-dir=$srcdir/.git option.

+	($(TESTSUITE)): Depend on just-built package.m4, not the one
+	in $(srcdir).
+	When running $(AUTOTEST), search "." before searching $(srcdir).
+
+	Avoid a race condition that would make parallel "distclean" fail.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (distclean-generic): Replace the default,
+	automake-provided rule with an identical one, but with an additional
+	dependency on distclean-local.  Simply adding the dependency would
+	cause automake not to emit the rule at all.
+	* BUGS: Building with -jN works, now.
+
+	Distribute git-version-gen.
+	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/git-version-gen,

+
+	Adjust the documentation of autotest WRT atlocal.

+	and change it a bit to make things clearer.
+	(Optimization and Wraparound): Clarify whether the compiler
+	will generate an infinite loop for the example derived from
+	Autoconf's mktime test.
+	(Signed Overflow Advice): Say that -ftrapv is meant for debugging.
+	Also, clarify unsigned multiplication overflow.
+

+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Integer Overflow): Revised based on today's
+	feedback.  The most important changes document what happens when
+	you convert an out-of-range value to a signed integer type, and
+	say that (sum < a) != (b < 0) reliably detects overflow when sum =
+	a + b.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Integer Overflow): Greatly expand and
+	rewrite, taking notions from the recent discussion on the gcc and
+	autoconf mailing lists; please see
+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2006-12/msg00091.html
+	and follow the many links.

+
+2006-12-28  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_DEFINE_TRACE): Don't include
+	preprocessor macro arguments in traced name.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Defining symbols): Document longstanding
+	support for AC_DEFINE-ing macros with arguments, and document
+	behavior when the same variable has multiple AC_DEFINEs.
+	* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (_AC_FC_WRAPPERS): Revert to the
+	old implementation which AC_DEFINEs the FC_FUNC and FC_FUNC_
+	macros directly, giving much shorter and simpler code.
+
+2006-12-28  Malcolm Purvis <malcolmp@xemacs.org>  (trivial change)
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Insert a
+	space before "$ac_configure_args" to prevent a 'config.status
+	--recheck' failure if ac_configure_args doesn't contain a leading
+	space.  This works around a problem with the XEmacs configure.ac,
+	which uses the (undocumented) ac_configure_args variable
+	inconsistently with Autoconf.
+
+2006-12-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_MKTIME):
+	Include <limits.h>, and use its INT_MAX to rewrite the
+	j loop so that it does not overflow 'int'.  Problem reported by
+	Ralf Wildenhues in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2006-12/msg00084.html>.
+	Play it safe by shifting left by 1 rather than multiplying by 2,
+	as GCC is less likely to optimize this away when the value
+	is signed (when it assumes overflow leads to undefined behavior).
+	Also, don't assume time_t uses two's complement.
+
+2006-12-20  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* tests/torture.at (Substitute a 2000-byte string): Avoid using

+2006-12-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Warnings are now generated by default for unknown

+	(External Software, Package Options): Cross-reference to Option
+	Checking, and use this to shorten our section.
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Prefer test -n
+	"$x" to test "x$foo" != x.
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Likewise.
+	Don't warn if $enable_option_checking is "no".
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Initialize

+	Don't echo the unrecognized opts, as this might mishandle

+	(AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER): Put the --disable-option-checking
+	usage next to the other --disable-FEATURE options in the
+	help string.
+
+2006-12-18  Steven G. Johnson  <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS, _AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS):

+
+	This change prompted by a problem report by Andrey Simonenko in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-12/msg00026.html>.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Defining Symbols): AC_DEFINE works for
+	object-like macros only, in the traditional portable character
+	set.
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_DEFINE_TRACE_LITERAL):
+	Warn about attempts to define things that are not identifiers.
+	* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (_AC_FC_WRAPPERS): Rewrite to avoid

+
+2006-12-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Undo some of the 2006-12-10 change.  It was
+	too drastic, even if Texinfo in theory requires it for info mode.
+
+	(config.status Invocation): Renamed back from Recreating a
+	Configuration).

+	(Writing Testsuites): Renamed from Writing testsuite.at.
+	(Autom4te Cache): Renamed from autom4te.cache.
+
+	* BUGS: Remove mention of VPATH problem, since it's now documented
+	not to be a bug in the Autoconf build procedure itself, but rather
+	a problem with the proprietary `make' programs.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Build Directories): Add a cross reference

+
+2006-12-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CC_C89): Also try -xc99=all, for Sun
+	C 5.8 on Solaris 10.  Using -xc99=all rather than -xc99 bypasses
+	the buggy -xc99 option of Forte Developer 7 C on Solaris 9.
+
+2006-12-07  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILES_PREPARE): Drop the
+	`CEOF$ac_eof' special marker, the awk script cannot contain a

+
+2006-12-06  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>

+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Configuration Headers): Remove the

+
+2006-12-05  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILES_PREPARE): When
+	creating the awk substitution script, handle one input line at a
+	time, so that the maximum length of a substituted (multi-line)
+	value is not limited by the size of the sed pattern space.
+	The trade-off is a slightly repetitive sed script.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Usual Tools): Branch labels
+	can only have up to 7 characters, due to Solaris 10 /bin/sed.
+	* tests/torture.at (Substitute a 2000-byte string): Increase the
+	test with several long lines, they should not be caught by sed
+	limits any more.
+
+	* tests/tools.at (autom4te preselections): New test, to flag
+	entries missing from autom4te.cfg.
+	Report by David Byron <dbyron@hheld.com>.
+
+	* tests/torture.at (Substitute a 2000-byte string): Actually use
+	AC_PROG_AWK, so the last change works as intended.
+	(Substitute and define special characters): Likewise.
+	(Substitute a newline): Likewise.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILES_PREPARE): Use `$AWK'

+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_INT_SAVE): Avoid newline, to aid in
+	cross-compiling from cygwin to mingw.
+	Reported by Bob Rossi.  This resurrects the 2000-11-30 patch to

+	to lib/autoconf/c.m4.
+
+2006-12-01  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_ECHO_PREPARE): Use a longer test
+	string for more reliable failure.  Wrap the entire test that
+	causes the broken Solaris printf to dump core, in a subshell,
+	so the segmentation fault message is reliably suppressed.
+	Fix shell expansion errors by using /usr/ucb/echo always;
+	avoid an error on systems without it by another subshell.
+	Avoid m4 expansion of `$1'.  Set the zeroth argument of the
+	subshell-$as_echo to `as_echo', for better error message.
+
+2006-11-28  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_CACHE_DUMP): If `BASH_ARGV' or

+	not be unset.
+
+2006-11-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Turn AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED into a noop.  It's been obsolete for

+
+2006-06-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Be more consistent about using @acronym with

+	quite right (it talked about "OSF/Tru64", even though the
+	operating systems were called OSF/1, Digital UNIX, and Tru64 UNIX,

+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_init): Merge the two m4_wrap

+	in the m4_wrap, do not check which diversion is the topmost
+	one, just check that the stack is balanced at the end.
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_INIT): We are going to change the

+
+2006-06-19  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+

+	(_AC_TYPE_UINT): Likewise for `uint$1_t'.
+	Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/types.m4 (_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_INT): Solaris 2.5.1

+
+	* bin/Makefile.am (autoconf.in): Use `--melt' for autom4te,

+
+2006-06-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+
+2006-06-14  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (The Make Macro MAKEFLAGS): New node.
+
+2006-06-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Some systematic minor improvements, as
+	follows.  Use "makefile" when talking about makefiles
+	generally (which might be named "makefile" or "Makefile" or even
+	"foo.mk"), "Makefile" when talking about a specific makefile
+	called "Makefile".  This unclutters the text from weird quotes
+	(e.g., "`Makefile's" in info mode).  Similarly, use "@var{foo}
+	values" rather than "@var{foo}s" and similar constructs containing
+	"}s".  Use "Make rules" rather than "Makefile rules".  Minor
+	English-language improvements.  Change the prefix "sub-" to "sub"
+	and "re-" to "re".
+	Put blank lines around examples more consistently.
+	Avoid "rather" and "very" as intensifiers.
+	Avoid "will" as an auxiliary.
+	(Limitations of Make): Split this node into....

+	(VPATH and Double-colon, $< in Explicit Rules):
+	(Automatic Rule Rewriting, OSF/Tru64 Directory Magic):
+	(Make Target Lookup, Single Suffix Rules, Timestamps and Make):
+	New nodes, resulting from splitup of Limitations of Make.
+	All cross-references changed.  Raise the top node from
+	a section to a chapter, and all subnodes accordingly.
+	Redo the introductory wording to match the new organization.
+	(Installation Directory Variables): Use an example that is
+	closer to what Autoconf actually does.  Mention that VPATH's
+	value should not contain metacharacters or white space.
+	(Fortran Compiler): Fix a VPATH bug in an example.
+	(Leading _ in Macro Names): Mention that this problem is no longer
+	of practical concern.
+	(VPATH and Make): Reword the advice to make it clearer
+	that Autoconf and Automake support VPATH in non-GNU make, but
+	many packages have bugs in this area.
+	($< in Explicit Rules): Refer to Build Directories rather
+	than using a (non-VPATH-safe) example.
+	(Automatic Rule Rewriting): Mention the sort of disaster that
+	can ensue with Solaris-style rule rewriting with VPATH.
+
+2006-06-13  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_DO_ECHO): Be more conservative
+	about quoting ac_try: quote all of it, if any of it seems suspicious.
+	This means we don't have to worry about ${ or sed any more.
+	Also, double-quote the case statement, to work around misuses via

+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Programs, Limitations of Usual Tools):
+	Use better wording to talk about AC_PROG_MKDIR_P's thread-safety.
+	Don't use the term "thread-safe" to talk about mkdir race
+	conditions, since the problem is more a process than a thread
+	issue.  Problem reported by Stepan Kasal in:

+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_MKDIR_P): Use code that mimics

+	Look in the PATH, and at /opt/sfw/bin.
+	Look for a 'gmkdir' program as well (Solaris 10 /opt/sfw/bin/gmkdir).
+	Don't bother to try mkdir -p, since we already check mkdir --version;
+	just look at the version number.  (There's no easy way to check
+	for race-free implementations.)
+	* tests/tools.at (autoconf: subdirectories): Adjust to above
+	changes, since MKDIR_P now might end in "/mkdir -p".
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (autoheader Invocation): Mention that the

+	(_AC_EVAL_ECHO): New macro.
+	(_AC_EVAL, AC_EVAL_STDERR): Use it.  Quote arg of eval.
+	(AC_TRY_EVAL, AC_TRY_COMMAND): Mention that these macros might get
+	removed.
+	(_AC_LINK_IFELSE): Use proper rule for shell continuation lines,
+	exposed by quoting of eval argument.  Put the command on line line
+	so it logs better.
+	* lib/autoconf/libs.m4 (_AC_PATH_X_XMKMF): Use eval more safely.
+	(_AC_PATH_X, AC_PATH_X): Quote more safely.
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_MAKE_SET): Use eval more safely.

+
+2006-05-26  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+	and Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Drop the

+	Autoconf-2.13, and comment this.
+	Do not export `ac_cv_exeext', Libtool hasn't needed this for years.
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Likewise, do not export it.
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_WORKS, _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS): Typos.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Compilers and Preprocessors) <EXEEXT>:

+
+2006-05-26  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	Revert these two patches:
+
+	2006-04-06  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>

+	2006-04-01.
+
+	2006-04-01  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+	Clean up _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT* macros.
+	* lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Don't try to
+	  detect exeext, it will be done by _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_O; just set
+	  ac_file to the name of the default output file and call
+	  _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_WORKS.  Move the definition of ac_files and the
+	  initial `rm' of the candidate files...
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT): ... here and simplify them.  Moreover, use
+	  the same list in subsequent `rm' calls, and for the temporary
+	  redefinition of ac_clean_files; call _AC_COMPILER_OBJEXT at the end,
+	  and don't call the other _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_* macros directly, use...
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_TESTS): ... this new macro.
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_O): Don't export ac_cv_exeext, it's not needed (or
+	  no longer needed) by libtool.  Make it a cache check.
+	(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS): Remove the comment, it was obviously
+	  copied here by mistake.
+	(AC_NO_EXECUTABLES): Redefine _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_TESTS, not
+	  _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT.
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX, AC_PROG_OBJC): Do not call

+
+2006-05-25  Noah Misch  <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
+
+	Sync from Automake:
+
+	* lib/Autom4te/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides

+	fatal errors when `make -j' is involved.  Improve error message.
+
+2006-05-25  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Here-Documents): We now know more about

+	* THANKS: Update.
+
+2006-05-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Don't use shell
+	expansion in the here-documents used by config.status, as that
+	runs afoul of the Korn shell version M-12/28/93d bug described in
+	the Autoconf manual, and this in turn causes a Coreutils 5.95 build to
+	fail as described by Tim Rice and diagnosed by Ralf Wildenhues in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-05/msg00082.html>.
+
+2006-05-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK):

+	of the test.
+
+2006-05-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Simplify ac_dA and
+	ac_dB slightly, to save bytes in the script.
+	Max out at 50 lines, rather than 96; this is more likely
+	(though not guaranteed) to avoid obscure 'sed' failures.
+
+2006-05-23  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): UnixWare `tr' may interpret
+	`tr -d -' as bad option argument.  Work around this by deleting

+	    Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>,
+	    Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Programs): Do not promise that
+	we always prefer the GNU version of the program, and that we
+	search according to PATH; both rules can have exceptions.
+	Update description of AC_PROG_GREP, AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP,
+	AC_PROG_SED.  Move descriptions of limitations
+	to the Limitations of Usual Tools section.
+	(Limitations of Usual Tools) <sed>: Mention script length
+	limitations with Solaris /usr/ucb/sed.
+	<grep>: Fix wording for empty alternative.  Mention that -c and

+
+2006-05-22  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+

+
+2006-05-21  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT):
+	Import the following fix from coreutils:
+
+	2006-01-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Invoke AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getmntent) unconditionally so that tests of
+	$ac_cv_func_getmntent (e.g., in gl_LIST_MOUNTED_FILE_SYSTEMS) need
+	not double-quote uses of that variable, to accommodate the rare
+	case in which getmntent is available in none of the libraries
+	checked.  This happens at least on FreeBSD 5.0.
+
+2006-05-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS): Bring back
+	ac_config_guess, ac_config_sub, and ac_configure, since evidently

+	But put in warning comments about them.
+	Problem reported by Ralf Wildenhues in

+	* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_STDBOOL): Fix overly-picky
+	test for C99 conformance; (bool) 0.5 is an integer constant
+	expression, but (bool) -0.5 is not.  Problem reported by Fedor
+	Sergeev in <http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=96202>.
+
+2006-05-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Programs): AC_PROG_MKDIR_P now
+	sets MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p, to avoid collisions with Automake.
+	Warn about obsolete install-sh files.  Remove stray sentence
+	fragment and fix cross reference.
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Don't insist on
+	install -d; this undoes the 2006-05-10 change.
+	(MKDIR_P): Mark with AN_MAKEVAR.
+	(AC_PROG_MKDIR_P): Fall back on $ac_install_sh, not $INSTALL, so
+	that we don't require $INSTALL to be thread-safe.  Move comments
+	out of generated code.  Require AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR_DEFAULT instead
+	of AC_PROG_INSTALL.  Output a message saying that we're checking
+	mkdir -p.  Set MKDIR_P rather than mkdir_p.  Do special magic for
+	MKDIR_P instead of AC_SUBST.
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILE, _AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS):
+	Special magic for MKDIR_P, too.
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_MKDIR_P): Remove comment that defeated
+	a dnl.
+	* tests/local.at (AT_CHECK_ENV): mkdir_p -> MKDIR_P.

+
+	Sync from Automake, as follows:
+
+	2006-05-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+	* config/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
+	turned off later.
+	* config/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
+	* config/missing: Remove superfluous quotes.  Replace all uses of
+	`[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
+	* config/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
+	(autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them.  Unifies detection of
+	`-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
+	Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man.  Fixes
+	PR automake/483.  Report by Dennis J. Linse.
+	(autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
+
+2006-05-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: New macro AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.  AS_MKDIR_P is now more robust.
+	* config/install-sh: Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
+	as per GNU coding standards.  Close a race condition reported by Ralf
+	Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal.  There is still a race condition
+	on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
+	Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
+	Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Programming in M4sh): Cross-reference to
+	AC_PROG_MKDIR_P from AS_MKDIR_P.
+	(Limitations of Usual Tools): Cross-reference to AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
+	from mkdir.  Mention that Autoconf 2.60 install-sh is safe but
+	earlier editions are not (including Automake 1.8.3).
+	Do not suggest mkinstalldirs for thread-safety.
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Insist on an 'install'
+	that understands -d, so that AC_PROG_MKDIR_P can fall back on $INSTALL.
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_MKDIR_P): Make it more robust in the
+	presence of special characters and race conditions.
+	* tests/local.at (AT_CHECK_ENV): Add mkdir_p to the list of variables
+	in Autoconf's name space.
+
+2006-05-10  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>
+	and Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+	2006-04-25  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+	* lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
+	2006-04-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+	* lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
+
+2006-05-09  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (AUTOTEST): Use `$(MY_AUTOM4TE)' instead of
+	`./autom4te' to create `./testsuite', since the `all' target
+	will ensure its presence, but `installcheck' should not create
+	the uninstalled wrappers.
+
+	* tests/torture.at (Unusual Automake input files): Skip if we
+	detect automake < 1.8.
+
+2006-05-07  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): If ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc
+	is set to `no', then that overrides and sets ac_cv_prog_cc_c89
+	and ac_cv_prog_cc_c99 to `no', for backward compatibility.
+	* NEWS: Update.
+
+2006-05-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS): Take care not to
+	munge (multiple) white space and other oddities.
+	* tests/torture.at (AT_CHECK_AC_ARG_VAR): Make sure to M4-escape
+	single quotes in variable assignment.
+	(AC_ARG_VAR, configure invocation): Adjust tests to expose this
+	and similar failures by adding multiple spaces, tabs, and other
+	special characters.
+	Report and different test suggested by Francesco Romani
+	<fromani@gmail.com> and Andrew Church <achurch@achurch.org>.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): When we escape
+	single quotes, we only need to search for single quotes; this
+	both simplifies the search pattern, and makes us less
+	susceptible to `echo' variations for arguments not containing
+	single quotes.
+	(_AC_ARG_VAR_VALIDATE): Likewise.

+2006-05-02  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+

+	(Run Time): Move C exit status stuff to new Exiting Portably section.
+	(Systemology): Mention Posix and levenez.  Update v7 reference.
+	(Portable Shell): Mention the Posix shell.
+
+2006-04-25  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* bin/autoconf.as (me): Replace by as_me.
+
+2006-04-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+2006-04-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Prepare for deprecation of AS_BASENAME and AS_DIRNAME, and fix

+
+2006-04-19  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Remove the leading
+	newline from the `trap' code to finish `config.log'; the NetBSD
+	/bin/sh resets the exit status after an empty command, as
+	documented in doc/autoconf.texi.
+	Reported by Dalibor Topic <robilad@kaffe.org>.
+
+2006-04-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (C Compiler): Clarify AC_C_TYPEOF.
+	Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+
+2006-04-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* configure.ac (ac_cv_sh_n_works): Don't try to test for it, since
+	some shells (e.g., Solaris 8 /bin/sh) implement it verrrry slowly.
+	Instead, just list the shells that we know work.
+	* tests/local.at (AT_CHECK_SHELL_SYNTAX): Remove 2nd arg.  All uses
+	changed.  Be more cautious about the _cv_ variable.
+	* tests/tools.at (Syntax of the shell scripts): Check the
+	_cv_ variable once, at first, to avoid an internal autoconf error
+	when sh -n does not work.
+
+2006-04-17  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm: Sync from Automake.
+
+2006-04-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_CONFIG_LOG): Don't
+	use ">&-" since we're only 99.999% sure that this is portable,
+	and since the MinGW bug is fixed in a different way.
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Likewise.
+
+2006-04-16  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Handle --recheck
+	before opening config.log, to avoid hitting a bug on MinGW.
+
+2006-04-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_CONFIG_LOG): Close
+	AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD before reopening it onto the log file.
+	This works around a MinGW bug reported by Eric Paire.
+	Make sure that all writes to the log file append to it,
+	rather than possibly losing data.

+
+2006-04-12  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	Version 2.59c.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (news-date-check): Do not require a leading `*'

+2006-04-12  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+	and Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILE): If the templates for
+	the instantiated file do not contain the string 'datarootdir'
+	but contain @datadir@, @docdir@, @infodir@, @localedir@, or
+	@mandir@, replace the reference '${datarootdir}' by the value.
+	* tests/torture.at (datarootdir workaround): New test.
+	* NEWS: Advertise this temporary fixup.
+	Based on a patch by Bruno Haible, reported and analyzed by
+	Paul Eggert and Noah Misch.
+
+2006-04-12  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>
+
+	* tests/autotest.at (Debugging a failed test): Fix comment.
+
+2006-04-12  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LN_S_PREPARE): Simplify the summary of
+	all the changes since 2006-04-07.
+
+2006-04-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LN_S_PREPARE): If `ln -s file1 file2'
+	succeeded, but `ln -s file dir' failed, take care to remove the
+	leftover target before the next test, to prevent its spurious
+	failure; also make sure `ln file dir' works before selecting it.
+	Thanks to Keith Marshall for pointing this out.
+	* THANKS: Update.
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Store quoted variable
+	assignments in `at_debug_args', so that we put them correctly
+	in the `run' script.
+	* tests/autotest.at (Debugging a failed test): Unmark XFAIL.
+	Reported by Eric Blake.
+
+2006-04-11  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>
+
+	* tests/autotest.at (AT_CHECK_AT): Add new argument, to allow
+	top-level tests after micro-suite has been run.   Used in...
+	(Debugging a successful test, Debugging script and environment),
+	(Debugging a failed test): ...these new tests.  The first of these
+	is fixed by...
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (_AT_CREATE_DEBUGGING_SCRIPT): New
+	macro, split out from...
+	(AT_INIT): ...here, so that using -d also generates a run script.
+	Document that -d inhibits top-level logging.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (testsuite Invocation): Document that -d only
+	inhibits top-level logging; debug scripts are created.
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (_AT_CHECK): Avoid syntax error on empty
+	check.
+	* tests/autotest.at (Empty test, Empty check): New test to check it.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_CONST, AC_C_VOLATILE): Avoid warnings
+	from gcc.
+
+2006-04-10  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* tests/mktests.sh: Use "trap '' 0", not "trap 0".  Do not touch
+	the files if a problem appears.  Make the empty *.at files
+	read-only, too.  Proposed by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2006-04-10  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* config/Makefile.am: Add comment to force updated Makefile.in.
+
+	* lib/freeze.mk: Fix typo in comment.  Unlike the last, white
+	space only patch to this file, this patch causes the Makefile.in
+	files that include freeze.mk to be updated, and thus have a
+	newer time stamp again, which in turn makes a pristine CVS
+	checkout have correct time stamps.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (cvs-sv): New macro, to be used..
+	(config.guess-url_prefix, config.sub-url_prefix)
+	(texinfo.tex-url_prefix, standards.texi-url_prefix): ..here;
+	point to CVS text checkout of Gnulib files.
+	(copyright-check): Bump current year.
+	(announcement): Do not hard-wire `./announce-gen'.
+	(cvs-update): Propagate failures of `cvs' and `move-if-change'
+	correctly.
+	* Makefile.cfg (executable-update): Use `chmod a+x' instead of
+	`chmod +x'.
+	(wget_files): Update config.guess, config.sub, texinfo.tex by
+	`wget-update', now that their URLs work again.
+
+2006-04-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Types): Don't use AC_CHECK_TYPE.
+	Problem noted by Paul D. Smith.
+
+2006-04-10  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi: Remove unused words from word list.
+	* .x-sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, .x-sc_space_tab, .x-sc_sun_os_names,
+	.x-sc_trailing_space: New files.
+
+	* doc/standards.texi: Sync from gnulib.
+
+	* NEWS, doc/autoconf.texi (AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS): Mark
+	`LIBOBJDIR' as experimental.
+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LN_S_PREPARE): MSYS `ln -s' fails
+	with a target directory; it's internally implemented as `cp'
+	anyway, but since Autoconf advertises the possibility to use
+	a target directory when LN_S is `ln -s', we need to find out.
+	Reported by Rolf Ebert <rolf.ebert.gcc@gmx.de> against MSYS,
+	analyzed by Keith Marshall <keith.marshall@total.com>.
+
+	* THANKS: Update.
+
+2006-04-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Just output
+	confdefs.h as-is.  In general, if it has backslash-newline or the
+	like, then it doesn't work either to sort or to remove empty
+	lines.
+
+2006-04-09  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (AUTOCONF_FILES): Fix typo in the comment.
+
+2006-04-09  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
+
+	* lib/autom4te.in (Automake-preselections): Preselect
+	_AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE.
+
+2006-04-08  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Use '\'' for an
+	apostrophe within a single-quoted string, as this is the usual
+	tradition and is easier to read than '"'"'.  Don't rely on the
+	shell treating "$/" like '$/'.  Use a more-consistent indenting
+	style for the trap.
+
+2006-04-09  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>
+
+	* tests/autotest.at (Backquote command substitution),
+	(Multiline backquote command substitution): Remove mistaken
+	AT_NO_CMDSUBST from the 2006-03-14 patch, which was meant to be
+	applied...
+	(Parenthetical command substitution, Multiline parenthetical
+	command substitution): here.
+
+2006-04-08  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Import macros from gnulib (often changing their name).
+
+	* NEWS: AC_C_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE is now obsolete.

+	AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT, AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS.
+	The manual mentions Gnulib more prominently.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Gnulib): New node.
+	(Pointers): Add Gnulib URL.
+	(Particular Functions): Alphabetize.  Add AC_FUNC_STRTOLD.
+	(Generic Functions): Add AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE.  Refer to new
+	Gnulib section.
+	(Particular Headers): Add AC_HEADER_ASSERT.  For stdbool.h,
+	suggest a #define rather than a typedef for _Bool, and mention
+	Gnulib rather than trying to substitute stdbool code.
+	(Generic Headers): Add AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE.
+	(Generic Declarations): Add AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE.

+
+2005-07-25  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	Rewrite substantial part of lib/autoconf/status.m4.
+	The main change is that CONFIG_FILES, CONFIG_HEADERS, CONFIG_LINKS,
+	and CONFIG_COMMANDS are not processed in four separate loops.
+	Instead, there is one main loop.  This allows that the common code
+	is expanded only once, thus config.status (and configure) is smaller.
+
+	The registration mechanism in AC_CONFIG_FILES and cousins also
+	changed; the AC_LIST_FILES and cousins macros are no longer used.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_FILES, _AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS,
+	_AC_OUTPUT_LINKS, _AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS): Renamed to ...
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_FILE, _AC_OUTPUT_HEADER, _AC_OUTPUT_LINK,
+	_AC_OUTPUT_COMMAND): ..., respectively.  These macros no longer
+	contain the initialization, nor the for loop, nor the associated
+	commands; all these go to ...
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_MAIN_LOOP): ... this new macro, called from
+	_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_SPLIT, _AC_CONFIG_SPLIT_SOURCE_DEST, _AC_CONFIG_SPLIT_FILE_IN):
+	Nuked; the code was merged into _AC_OUTPUT_MAIN_LOOP.
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_FILE): The creation of the sed script ...
+	(AC_OUTPUT): ... and the setup of ac_vpsub goes to ...
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_FILES_PREPARE): ... a new macro, also called from
+	_AC_OUTPUT_MAIN_LOOP.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_FILES, _AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, _AC_CONFIG_LINKS,
+	_AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS): Use ...
+	(_AC_CONFIG_FOOS): ... this new macro, which uses these ...
+	(_AC_CONFIG_REGISTER, _AC_CONFIG_REGISTER_DEST): ... new macros.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_FILE, _AC_CONFIG_HEADER, _AC_CONFIG_LINK,
+	_AC_CONFIG_COMMAND, _AC_CONFIG_DEPENDENCIES): No longer needed.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_DEPENDENCY): Update, it uses these ...
+	(_AC_CONFIG_DEPENDENCY_DEFAULT, _AC_FILE_DEPENDENCY_TRACE_COLON):
+	... new macros.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_UNIQUE): Update.
+	(AC_LIST_FILES, AC_LIST_HEADERS, AC_LIST_LINKS, AC_LIST_COMMANDS):
+	Replaced by this ...
+	(_AC_LIST_TAGS): ... new common macro.
+	(AC_LIST_FILE_COMMANDS, AC_LIST_HEADER_COMMANDS, AC_LIST_LINK_COMMANDS,
+	AC_LIST_COMMAND_COMMANDS): Replaced by this ...
+	(_AC_LIST_TAG_COMMANDS): ... new common macro.
+	(_AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_INIT): Moved top to the `registration' section;
+	this didn't belong to the `config commands' section.
+	(_AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS_INIT): Don't initialize, m4_ifdef is our friend.
+	(AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE, AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS_PRE,
+	AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_POST): Moved to a new section, these didn't belong
+	to the `config commands' section either.
+	(AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): Don't touch diversion DEFAULTS.
+	(_AC_LIST_SUBDIRS): Don't initialize, m4_ifdef is our friend.
+
+	... and many changes to the comments nearby.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): At the end of the day,
+	set ac_subdirs_all='_AC_LIST_SUBDIRS'.
+	* tests/torture.at (AC_CONFIG_FILES, HEADERS, LINKS and COMMANDS):
+	AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS(command:input,...) is no longer allowed.
+	(#define header templates): The comment at the top of the generated
+	header now includes the name(s) of the source file(s).
+
+	Several unrelated small changes:
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_CACHE_VAL): Be didactic, quote the first
+	parameter to AC_DIAGNOSE.
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): Likewise.
+	(_AC_LINK_FILES_CNT): Don't AU_DEFUN this; it causes confusing messages
+	with autoupdate; use m4_define_default inside AU_DEFUNed AC_LINK_FILES.
+	(AC_OUTPUT): In the compatibility code, use m4_ifvaln, to be consistent
+	with AU::AC_OUTPUT.
+	(AU::AC_OUTPUT): Don't double-quote $2 and $3, the compatibility code
+	in AC_OUTPUT doesn't double-quote it either.
+	* tests/tools.at (autoupdate): AU::AC_OUTPUT no longer double-quotes the
+	parameters.

+	  a loop to assign all ac_env_* and ac_cv_env_* variables.
+	(_AC_ARG_VAR_VALIDATE): Use shell variable ac_precious_vars, divert
+	  to INIT_PREPARE.
+	(_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): At the end, if _AC_PRECIOUS_VARS is set, assign
+	  its value to shell variable ac_precious_vars and call
+	  _AC_ARG_VAR_STORE and _AC_ARG_VAR_VALIDATE.
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Don't call

+
+	m4_cdr of one-member list was [[]] (one-member list containing an

+	This isn't a complete fix but it's an improvement.
+

+
+	* tests/torture.at (Deep Package): Use configure.in, not configure.ac,

+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_DETECT_BETTER_SHELL): Require

+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (File System Conventions): Warn about
+	names like "aux".  Problem reported by Eric Blake.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_BOOL_COMPILE_TRY (C)): Use division
+	by zero instead of array size, so that we can use any arithmetic
+	constant expression (instead of requiring an integer constant
+	expression).  This allows us to test expressions like DBL_MAX <
+	LDBL_MAX, which didn't conform to the C standard using the old
+	method.
+	(AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE): Put back in the tests for LDBL_MAX and LDBL_EPSILON,
+	now that we can do floating-point tests at compile time.
+
+2004-06-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE): Don't check LDBL_MAX
+	and LDBL_EPSILON, as the resulting expression isn't an
+	integer constant expression and violates the C standard.
+	Problem reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe.  Also, check
+	for "L" suffix, and check that long double doesn't have
+	worse range or precision than double, that mixed-mode
+	arithmetic doesn't generate a diagnostic, that double
+	constants fit in long double.

+	change).  Patch reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
+	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2004-05/msg00092.html>.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Don't assume that a
+	function F exists if the compiler and linker let you compile an
+	expression like (F != 0).  Recent versions of GCC optimize away
+	the reference to F in that case, since every function address must
+	be nonzero, so the link succeeds even if F does not exist.
+	Problem reported by Manu in
+	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2004-05/msg00060.html>.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Systemology): Standardize on the spelling of

+	note pessimistic assumption when cross compiling.
+
+2004-05-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Make): Note that BSD make
+	(until 2004) invoked subcommands with sh -e, contra POSIX.
+	Reported by Kevin Ryde.
+
+2004-05-10  Eric Sunshine  <sunshine@sunshineco.com>
+
+	* programs.m4 (_AC_PROG_GREP): Fixed bug where PATH argument handed to
+	_AC_PATH_PROG_FEATURE_CHECK contained leading whitespace (i.e.
+	"        $PATH:/usr/xpg4/bin"). This resulted in bogus tests, such as
+	`test -f "        /usr/bin/grep"', which _always_ failed.
+	(AC_PROG_SED): Ditto bogus PATH fix.
+	* autoconf.texi (AC_PROG_GREP): Properly document that this macro
+	requires that grep correctly supports _multiple_ `-e' options, rather
+	than stating only that grep should accept `-e'.
+
+2004-05-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Port to C99, which requires that 'exit' be declared.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): Use AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT
+	to ensure that stdlib.h is included.
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (_AC_LIBOBJ_ALLOCA, AC_FUNC_SETPGRP,

+	* lib/autoconf/types.m4 (AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS): Likewise.
+	* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_STDC): Include <stdlib.h>

+
+2004-05-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Programs): AC_PROG_GREP
+	now prefers 'grep' implementations that accept -e.
+	(Limitations of Usual Tools): Describe problems of traditional
+	egrep and fgrep with long input lines, and of traditional grep
+	with -e.
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_GREP): Check for -e, too.
+	(_AC_PROG_GREP): Assume 3rd arg is properly quoted for the shell.
+	All callers changed.  Append /usr/xpg4/bin to the PATH, for

+	(_AC_FEATURE_CHECK_LENGTH): Discard stderr, so we don't bother
+	the user with complaints about multiple -e options.

+	* configure.ac (AC_PROG_GREP): Add.
+	* lib/freeze.mk (GREP): New macro.
+
+2004-05-02  Eric Sunshine  <sunshine@sunshineco.com>
+
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_DETECT_BETTER_SHELL): Consult $SHELL as
+	a possible candidate only after all others fail, rather than
+	consulting it first.  This improves backward compatibility by
+	better reflecting the way shell selection occurred in previous
+	versions of Autoconf, and should help to avoid triggering latent
+	problems in other packages, such as the one in Automake where zsh
+	is not handled robustly:
+	http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2004-04/msg00095.html
+	Although it is not Autoconf's responsibility to work around
+	problems in Automake, it nevertheless makes sense to avoid
+	introducing unnecessary incompatibilites.
+
+2004-04-22  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>,
+	    Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

+
+2004-04-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* tests/c.at (C keywords): Don't assume that GCC supports
+	"restrict" and "inline", as sufficiently-old GCC versions do not
+	(also, GCC configured to be in pedantic C89 mode does not).
+	Problem reported by Sumit Pandya in:
+	http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-04/msg00092.html
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CC_G, _AC_PROG_CXX_G): Don't

+
+2004-04-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (_AC_FEATURE_CHECK_LENGTH): Make the

+	avoid checks for one tool being affected by the results of running
+	the length check on a previous tool.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (_AC_PROG_GREP): Take an additional
+	match expression argument, as different greps have different
+	regular expression flavours.
+	(AC_PROG_FGREP): Pass 'FGREP'. fgrep treats all match chars as

+
+	First stab at preserving warnings between calls to autom4te,
+	including when the cache is used.
+
+	There are still several issues: (i) there are too many runs of m4
+	(one for include, one for warnings, and some more), (ii) warnings
+	spreading on several lines are not handled gracefully, (iii) the
+	code meant to have the call stack display for errors does not work
+	(its handling should move from m4 to autom4te).
+
+	* bin/autom4te.in Autom4te::Channels, Autom4te::ChannelDefs):
+	Use them.
+	(@preselect): Add m4_warn.
+	($exit_status): Remove, use $exit_code.
+	($help): Use Autom4te::ChannelDefs::usage.
+	(&handle_m4): No longer define the m4_warnings.
+	At each run, extract and report the warnings.
+	Always cache the result, including if the exit status is on
+	failure, since if nothing changes, we should result in the same
+	failure, hence we can use the cache.

+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_DIAGNOSE): Don't make it a copy of
+	the contents of m4_warn: make it _call_ m4_warn, so that tracing
+	the latter reveals calls to the former.
+
+	Adjust the tests.

+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Report a single config.log,
+	not all of them.  This fixes 1. the fact that when testing
+	Autoconf there are many many config.log, 2. the incorrect use of
+	top_srcdir to find config.log.

+
+2003-05-23  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CXX_EXIT_DECLARATION):
+	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

+	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>,

+2003-05-22  Paolo Bonzini  <bonzini@gnu.org>
+
+	Overhaul Autotest's logging: generate separate log files

+	testsuite.log instead of re-running the test verbosely.
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Use a single redirected
+	file descriptor, write 0 to at_status_file instead of setting
+	at_status=0, initialize some new variables (at_status_file,
+	at_group_log, at_suite_log, at_tee_pipe).  Remove the cruft
+	to rerun the tests, instead append the at_group_log to the
+	at_suite_log when a test fails.
+	(AT_SETUP): pipe the test case's output into at_tee_pipe,
+	with the AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD redirected to stdout.
+	(AT_CLEANUP): save the output status in $at_status_file
+	and restore it, redirect the AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD back to
+	its original place.
+	(AT_CHECK): since tests are run with a redirected stdout,
+	and used to be re-run in verbose mode, turn some $at_verbose
+	into echo, and don't redirect the output of testing stdout
+	and stderr.
+
+	* lib/autotest/autoconf.texi (testsuite Scripts): Update

+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY(C)): Define $1 to an
+	innocuous variant befor including <limits.h> or <assert.h>.  This
+	works around a bug reported by Albert Chin: HP-UX 11i

+	gettimeofday and many other functions.
+
+2002-12-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+

+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY(C)): Use the function f

+
+	* Makefile.maint: Sync with Bison, i.e.:
+	(po-check): Scan .l and .y files instead of the
+	.c and the .h files that they generate.  This fixes the bug
+	reported by Tim Van Holder in:

+	Look for N_ as well as for _.  Try to avoid matching #define for

+
+	* lib/autoconf/autoheader.m4 (_AH_TEMPLATE_OLD, _AH_VERBATIM_OLD):
+	Remove.
+	We _have_ to stop using the old compatibility scheme that tried to
+	avoid useless backslashes because Libtool 1.4.3 contains a
+	AC_DEFINE([error_t], [int],
+	[Define to a type to use for \`error_t' if it is not
+	otherwise available.])
+	We _have_ to quote the single quote and backslashes with \.  The
+	old compatibility scheme saw that ` was backslashed, and therefore
+	did not quote the single quote.  Hence before this patch, Autoconf
+	was not compatible with Libtool.

+	For LC_ALL etc, first try to set to "C" as POSIX requires and as

+	example, since the old example is now out of date.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): Reject FOO if "cd

+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT, AT_CLEANUP):
+	Create at_test_all by a series of assignments,

+
+	This patch implements a `long double' suggestion by Oliver Kiddle.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_BOOL_COMPILE_TRY(C)): Make the array
+	static, to catch errors if the value isn't known at compile-time
+	and the compiler supports dynamic arrays.  Change its name from
+	`_array_' to `test_array' to avoid potential name clashes.
+	(AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE): Make it a compile-time test, not a run-time
+	test.  Do not define HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE if `long double' is no
+	better than double.  Catch a bug in GCC 2.95.2 x86.
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (C Compiler): Document the above.
+	* NEWS: Likewise.
+
+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+	option.
+	(AT_CHECK_CONFIGURE): Use absolute paths.
+	(_AT_CHECK_AC_MACRO): Create aclocal.m4 with AC_STATE_SAVE in it.
+	The problem is still the old one: there is no means in M4 (that I
+	know about) to create a defining macro, because there is no means
+	to create `$1' etc., therefore, the defining macro ``swallows''
+	all the arguments meant to the defined macro.
+
+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Be sure to put `.', relative,

+	Create `testsuite.dir/003/run' instead of `testsuite.003'.
+	Do it as soon as a test fails, don't wait till the end of the test
+	suite.
+	Don't remove $as_me.[0-9]*, since these files no longer exist.
+
+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+

+
+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Now that tests are running in their own private dir, there is no

+

+	* tests/atspecific.m4: Adjust.
+
+2001-11-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Start a new layout for Autotest: `testsuite' creates
+	`testsuite.dir' in which the at-check-line etc. files are to be
+	found, and `testsuite.dir/003' where the test group 3 is run.
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): at_tests_dir,
+	at_check_line_file, at_format, at_test_normalized, at_group_dir
+	are new variables.
+	Create the directories.
+	Use absolute paths for at- files.
+	(AT_CHECK): Adjust.

+	already have $file).  Set output files to binary mode (helps avoid
+	CR issues on DOSish systems).
+
+2001-09-19  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4: Englishoes.
+	From Tim Van Holder and Alexey Mahotkin.
+
+2001-09-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Common Shell Constructs): New node,
+	documenting AS_DIRNAME.
+	(Limitations of Usual Tools): Refer to it when discussing dirname.
+	Also, update discussion of POSIX standard to reflect latest draft.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4:
+	(AC_LANG_INT_SAVE(C)): Also support negative values, down to LONG_MIN.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_COMPUTE_INT_COMPILE):
+	Do not pass a first argument with leading '-'
+	to expr, by parenthesizing initial integers that might be negative.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Functions): AC_FUNC_GETPGRP
+	now merely checks whether it is an error to pass an argument
+	to getpgrp.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (_AC_FUNC_GETPGRP_TEST): Remove.
+	(AC_FUNC_GETPGRP): Don't bother with a runtime test.  Just check
+	whether it is a (compile-time) error to pass an argument to
+	getpgrp.  This simpler test supports the revised documentation,
+	and is all that AC_FUNC_GETPGRP's users really need.
+
+2001-09-18  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Make) <$<>: New.

+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Adjust.
+
+2001-09-18  Paul Wagland  <paul@wagland.net>
+
+	* tests/m4sh.at: Ensure that AS_DIRNAME handles '/', '//' and '///'
+	correctly.
+	Add test for AS_BASENAME.
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4: Fix AS_BASENAME so that it passes the previous
+	added test. It now correctly handles /1/2/3/, returning '3' not ''.
+	Added AS_BASENAME_SED to make the interface the same as AS_DIRNAME.
+	* tests/base.at: Fixed the expected responses. The old ones were
+	one line out...
+	* lib/autoconf/general.m4: Fixed AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM, it now behaves as
+	the documentation claims it should (and how it behaved in 2.13).
+
+2001-09-18  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/autotest.m4 (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): No INIT-CMDS in

+	* lib/m4sugar/Makefile.am (version.m4): Revamp.
+	No longer to be shipped.
+	(version.in): Remove.
+	* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4, lib/autoconf/general.m4,
+	* lib/autoconf/status.m4: Adjust.
+	Use `m4_PACKAGE_STRING'.
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): N-th signature change: now
+	the only optional argument is the name of the test suite.
+	Expect `package.m4' to define the package signature.
+	* lib/autom4te.in (Autotest): Add `package.m4?'.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): New.
+	* tests/suite.at: ifnames is a victim.
+
+2001-09-18  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+	(not int, as before).  Check for output errors.
+
+2001-09-17  Bruno Haible  <haible@ilog.fr>
+
+	* lib/autoconf/c.m4: (AC_LANG_INT_SAVE(C)):
+	Always include <stdio.h> and <stdlib.h>. Evaluate
+	the expression in an extra function before these includes. Call
+	fprintf "%d" only after ensuring the argument is of type 'int'.
+	Reported by Wayne Chapeskie <waynec@spinnaker.com>.
+
+2001-09-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix bug reported by Paul Townsend on AIX 4.3.3.0 with CFLAGS=-O4
+	or CFLAGS=-O5.  In that case, the linker has a relaxed view of
+	fatal errors, and AC_CHECK_LIB causes it to include libraries even
+	when they don't exist.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_DIRENT): Use AC_SEARCH_LIBS,
+	not AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use -ldir or -lx if we don't
+	need it.
+
+	* lib/autoconf/specific.m4 (AC_ISC_POSIX): Replace the old, crufty
+	version with the version used by fileutils 4.1, except use
+	AC_SEARCH_LIBS, not AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use -lcposix if
+	we don't need it.
+
+	* doc/autoconf.texi (AC_ISC_POSIX): Describe new behavior.
+
+2001-09-13  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+
+	* tests/mktests.sh: Don't output banners for empty test files.

+2001-09-05  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

+	the maintainer is dumb enough to do that...
+
+	* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_SETUP, AT_LINE): Demonstrates your

+	Pass `autoconf_dir' via options, not via invisible envvars.
+	* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&find_peer): Remove.

+

+
+	The use of `dumpstat' revealed that `len' was used although it

+	where it is legal.  Hence (i) test M4sh in its own world, not
+	Autoconf's, and (ii), ahem, fix the bug :)

+
+2001-08-04  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>
+
+	Don't let autom4te compute the `include' traces several times:
+	first check that the trace cache file is up to date, and then
+	compare its timestamp with that of the output.
+
+	* bin/autom4te.in, bin/autoupdate.in, bin/autoscan.in: Normalize

+Installation Instructions
+*************************
+
+Copyright (C) 1994-1996, 1999-2002, 2004-2012 Free Software Foundation,
+Inc.

+without warranty of any kind.
+
+Basic Installation
+==================
+
+   Briefly, the shell commands './configure; make; make install' should
+configure, build, and install this package.  The following
+more-detailed instructions are generic; see the 'README' file for
+instructions specific to this package.  Some packages provide this
+'INSTALL' file but do not implement all of the features documented
+below.  The lack of an optional feature in a given package is not
+necessarily a bug.  More recommendations for GNU packages can be found
+in *note Makefile Conventions: (standards)Makefile Conventions.
+
+   The 'configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
+various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
+those values to create a 'Makefile' in each directory of the package.
+It may also create one or more '.h' files containing system-dependent
+definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script 'config.status' that
+you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
+file 'config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
+debugging 'configure').
+
+   It can also use an optional file (typically called 'config.cache'
+and enabled with '--cache-file=config.cache' or simply '-C') that saves
+the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring.  Caching is
+disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
+cache files.
+
+   If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
+to figure out how 'configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
+diffs or instructions to the address given in the 'README' so they can
+be considered for the next release.  If you are using the cache, and at
+some point 'config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
+may remove or edit it.
+
+   The file 'configure.ac' (or 'configure.in') is used to create
+'configure' by a program called 'autoconf'.  You need 'configure.ac' if
+you want to change it or regenerate 'configure' using a newer version
+of 'autoconf'.
+
+   The simplest way to compile this package is:
+
+  1. 'cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
+     './configure' to configure the package for your system.
+
+     Running 'configure' might take a while.  While running, it prints
+     some messages telling which features it is checking for.
+
+  2. Type 'make' to compile the package.
+
+  3. Optionally, type 'make check' to run any self-tests that come with
+     the package, generally using the just-built uninstalled binaries.
+
+  4. Type 'make install' to install the programs and any data files and
+     documentation.  When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is
+     recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular
+     user, and only the 'make install' phase executed with root
+     privileges.
+
+  5. Optionally, type 'make installcheck' to repeat any self-tests, but
+     this time using the binaries in their final installed location.
+     This target does not install anything.  Running this target as a
+     regular user, particularly if the prior 'make install' required
+     root privileges, verifies that the installation completed
+     correctly.
+
+  6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
+     source code directory by typing 'make clean'.  To also remove the
+     files that 'configure' created (so you can compile the package for
+     a different kind of computer), type 'make distclean'.  There is
+     also a 'make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
+     for the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get
+     all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
+     with the distribution.
+
+  7. Often, you can also type 'make uninstall' to remove the installed
+     files again.  In practice, not all packages have tested that
+     uninstallation works correctly, even though it is required by the
+     GNU Coding Standards.
+
+  8. Some packages, particularly those that use Automake, provide `make
+     distcheck', which can by used by developers to test that all other
+     targets like 'make install' and 'make uninstall' work correctly.
+     This target is generally not run by end users.
+
+Compilers and Options
+=====================
+
+   Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
+the 'configure' script does not know about.  Run './configure --help'
+for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
+
+   You can give 'configure' initial values for configuration parameters
+by setting variables in the command line or in the environment.  Here
+is an example:
+
+     ./configure CC=c99 CFLAGS=-g LIBS=-lposix
+
+   *Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
+
+Compiling For Multiple Architectures
+====================================
+
+   You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
+same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
+own directory.  To do this, you can use GNU 'make'.  'cd' to the
+directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
+the 'configure' script.  'configure' automatically checks for the
+source code in the directory that 'configure' is in and in '..'.  This
+is known as a "VPATH" build.
+
+   With a non-GNU 'make', it is safer to compile the package for one
+architecture at a time in the source code directory.  After you have
+installed the package for one architecture, use 'make distclean' before
+reconfiguring for another architecture.
+
+   On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
+executables that work on multiple system types--known as "fat" or
+"universal" binaries--by specifying multiple '-arch' options to the
+compiler but only a single '-arch' option to the preprocessor.  Like
+this:
+
+     ./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+                 CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+                 CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
+
+   This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you
+may have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
+using the 'lipo' tool if you have problems.
+
+Installation Names
+==================
+
+   By default, 'make install' installs the package's commands under
+'/usr/local/bin', include files under '/usr/local/include', etc.  You
+can specify an installation prefix other than '/usr/local' by giving
+'configure' the option '--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an
+absolute file name.
+
+   You can specify separate installation prefixes for
+architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files.  If you
+pass the option '--exec-prefix=PREFIX' to 'configure', the package uses
+PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
+Documentation and other data files still use the regular prefix.
+
+   In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
+options like '--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
+kinds of files.  Run 'configure --help' for a list of the directories
+you can set and what kinds of files go in them.  In general, the
+default for these options is expressed in terms of '${prefix}', so that
+specifying just '--prefix' will affect all of the other directory
+specifications that were not explicitly provided.
+
+   The most portable way to affect installation locations is to pass the
+correct locations to 'configure'; however, many packages provide one or
+both of the following shortcuts of passing variable assignments to the
+'make install' command line to change installation locations without
+having to reconfigure or recompile.
+
+   The first method involves providing an override variable for each
+affected directory.  For example, `make install
+prefix=/alternate/directory' will choose an alternate location for all
+directory configuration variables that were expressed in terms of
+'${prefix}'.  Any directories that were specified during 'configure',
+but not in terms of '${prefix}', must each be overridden at install
+time for the entire installation to be relocated.  The approach of
+makefile variable overrides for each directory variable is required by
+the GNU Coding Standards, and ideally causes no recompilation.
+However, some platforms have known limitations with the semantics of
+shared libraries that end up requiring recompilation when using this
+method, particularly noticeable in packages that use GNU Libtool.
+
+   The second method involves providing the 'DESTDIR' variable.  For
+example, 'make install DESTDIR=/alternate/directory' will prepend
+'/alternate/directory' before all installation names.  The approach of
+'DESTDIR' overrides is not required by the GNU Coding Standards, and
+does not work on platforms that have drive letters.  On the other hand,
+it does better at avoiding recompilation issues, and works well even
+when some directory options were not specified in terms of '${prefix}'
+at 'configure' time.
+
+Optional Features
+=================
+
+   If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
+with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving 'configure' the
+option '--program-prefix=PREFIX' or '--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
+
+   Some packages pay attention to '--enable-FEATURE' options to
+'configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
+They may also pay attention to '--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
+is something like 'gnu-as' or 'x' (for the X Window System).  The
+'README' should mention any '--enable-' and '--with-' options that the
+package recognizes.
+
+   For packages that use the X Window System, 'configure' can usually
+find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
+you can use the 'configure' options '--x-includes=DIR' and
+'--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
+
+   Some packages offer the ability to configure how verbose the
+execution of 'make' will be.  For these packages, running `./configure
+--enable-silent-rules' sets the default to minimal output, which can be
+overridden with 'make V=1'; while running `./configure
+--disable-silent-rules' sets the default to verbose, which can be
+overridden with 'make V=0'.
+
+Particular systems
+==================
+
+   On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible.  If GNU
+CC is not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in
+order to use an ANSI C compiler:
+
+     ./configure CC="cc -Ae -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500"
+
+and if that doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of GCC for HP-UX.
+
+   HP-UX 'make' updates targets which have the same time stamps as
+their prerequisites, which makes it generally unusable when shipped
+generated files such as 'configure' are involved.  Use GNU 'make'
+instead.
+
+   On OSF/1 a.k.a. Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot
+parse its '<wchar.h>' header file.  The option '-nodtk' can be used as
+a workaround.  If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore recommended
+to try
+
+     ./configure CC="cc"
+
+and if that doesn't work, try
+
+     ./configure CC="cc -nodtk"
+
+   On Solaris, don't put '/usr/ucb' early in your 'PATH'.  This
+directory contains several dysfunctional programs; working variants of
+these programs are available in '/usr/bin'.  So, if you need '/usr/ucb'
+in your 'PATH', put it _after_ '/usr/bin'.
+
+   On Haiku, software installed for all users goes in '/boot/common',
+not '/usr/local'.  It is recommended to use the following options:
+
+     ./configure --prefix=/boot/common
+
+Specifying the System Type
+==========================
+
+   There may be some features 'configure' cannot figure out
+automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
+will run on.  Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
+_same_ architectures, 'configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
+a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
+'--build=TYPE' option.  TYPE can either be a short name for the system
+type, such as 'sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
+
+     CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
+
+where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
+
+     OS
+     KERNEL-OS
+
+   See the file 'config.sub' for the possible values of each field.  If
+'config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
+need to know the machine type.
+
+   If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
+use the option '--target=TYPE' to select the type of system they will
+produce code for.
+
+   If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
+platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
+"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
+eventually be run) with '--host=TYPE'.
+
+Sharing Defaults
+================
+
+   If you want to set default values for 'configure' scripts to share,
+you can create a site shell script called 'config.site' that gives
+default values for variables like 'CC', 'cache_file', and 'prefix'.
+'configure' looks for 'PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
+'PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists.  Or, you can set the
+'CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
+A warning: not all 'configure' scripts look for a site script.
+
+Defining Variables
+==================
+
+   Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
+environment passed to 'configure'.  However, some packages may run
+configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
+variables may be lost.  In order to avoid this problem, you should set
+them in the 'configure' command line, using 'VAR=value'.  For example:
+
+     ./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
+
+causes the specified 'gcc' to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
+overridden in the site shell script).
+
+Unfortunately, this technique does not work for 'CONFIG_SHELL' due to
+an Autoconf limitation.  Until the limitation is lifted, you can use

+
+'configure' Invocation
+======================
+
+   'configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
+operates.
+
+'--help'
+'-h'
+     Print a summary of all of the options to 'configure', and exit.
+
+'--help=short'
+'--help=recursive'
+     Print a summary of the options unique to this package's
+     'configure', and exit.  The 'short' variant lists options used
+     only in the top level, while the 'recursive' variant lists options
+     also present in any nested packages.
+
+'--version'
+'-V'
+     Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the 'configure'
+     script, and exit.
+
+'--cache-file=FILE'
+     Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
+     traditionally 'config.cache'.  FILE defaults to '/dev/null' to
+     disable caching.
+
+'--config-cache'
+'-C'
+     Alias for '--cache-file=config.cache'.
+
+'--quiet'
+'--silent'
+'-q'
+     Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To
+     suppress all normal output, redirect it to '/dev/null' (any error
+     messages will still be shown).
+
+'--srcdir=DIR'
+     Look for the package's source code in directory DIR.  Usually
+     'configure' can determine that directory automatically.
+
+'--prefix=DIR'
+     Use DIR as the installation prefix.  *note Installation Names::
+     for more details, including other options available for fine-tuning
+     the installation locations.
+
+'--no-create'
+'-n'
+     Run the configure checks, but stop before creating any output
+     files.
+
+'configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.  Run
+'configure --help' for more details.

+GNU Autoconf NEWS - User visible changes.
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.69 (2012-04-24) [stable]
+
+** Autoconf now requires perl 5.6 or better (but generated configure
+   scripts continue to run without perl).
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.68b (2012-03-01) [beta]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.68.*.
+
+** Autoconf-generated configure scripts now unconditionally re-execute
+   themselves with $CONFIG_SHELL, if that's set in the environment.
+
+** The texinfo documentation no longer specifies "front-cover" or
+   "back-cover" texts, so that it may now be included in Debian's
+   "main" section.
+
+** Support for the Go programming language has been added.  The new macro
+   AC_LANG_GO sets variables GOC and GOFLAGS.
+
+** AS_LITERAL_IF again treats '=' as a literal.  Regression introduced in
+   2.66.
+
+** The macro AS_EXECUTABLE_P, present since 2.50, is now documented.
+
+** Macros
+
+- AC_PROG_LN_S and AS_LN_S now fall back on 'cp -pR' (not 'cp -p') if 'ln -s'
+  does not work.  This works better for symlinks to directories.
+
+- New macro AC_HEADER_CHECK_STDBOOL.
+
+- New and updated macros for Fortran support:
+
+    AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS to enable array bounds checking
+    AC_F77_IMPLICIT_NONE and AC_FC_IMPLICIT_NONE to disable implicit integer
+    AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION to compute the Fortran 90 module name extension
+    AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module search path flag
+    AC_FC_MODULE_OUTPUT_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module output directory flag
+    AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT for preprocessed Fortran source files extensions
+    AC_FC_PP_DEFINE for the Fortran preprocessor define flag
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.68 (2010-09-22) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.67.*.
+
+** AC_MSG_ERROR (and AS_ERROR) can once again be followed immediately by
+   `dnl'.  Regression introduced in 2.66.
+
+** AC_INIT again allows URLs with '?' for its BUG-REPORT argument.
+   Regression introduced in 2.66.
+
+** AC_REPLACE_FUNCS again allows a non-literal argument, such as a shell
+   variable that expands to a list of functions to check.  Regression
+   introduced in 2.66.
+
+** AT_BANNER() with empty argument will cause visual separation from previous
+   test category.
+
+** The macros AC_PREPROC_IFELSE, AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, AC_LINK_IFELSE, and
+   AC_RUN_IFELSE now warn if the first argument failed to use
+   AC_LANG_SOURCE or AC_LANG_PROGRAM to generate the conftest file
+   contents.  A new macro AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED exists if you have
+   a compelling reason why you cannot use AC_LANG_SOURCE but must
+   avoid the warning.
+
+** The macro m4_define_default is now documented.
+
+** Symlinked config.cache files are supported; configure now tries to
+   update non-symlinked cache files atomically, so that concurrent configure
+   runs do not leave behind broken cache files.  It is still unspecified
+   which subset or union of results is cached though.
+
+** Autotest testsuites should not contain long text lines any more, and be
+   portable even when very many test groups are used.
+
+** AT_CHECK semantics with respect to the Autotest variable $at_status and
+   shell execution environment of the arguments are documented now.
+
+** AC_FC_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS now tolerates output from newer gfortran.
+
+** Newly obsolete macros
+   The following macros have been marked obsolete.  New programs
+   should use the corresponding Gnulib modules.  Gnulib not only
+   detects a larger set of portability problems with these functions,
+   but also provides complete workarounds.
+
+     AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE  AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK
+     AC_FUNC_MKTIME  AC_FUNC_STRTOD
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.67 (2010-07-21) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.66.*.
+
+** AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS with more than one subdirectory at a time works again.
+   Regression introduced in 2.66.
+
+** AC_CHECK_SIZEOF of a pointer type works again.  Regression introduced in
+   2.66.
+
+** New macro AC_FC_LINE_LENGTH to accept long Fortran source code lines.
+
+** AC_PREPROC_IFELSE now keeps the preprocessed output in the conftest.i
+   file for inspection by the commands in the ACTION-IF-TRUE argument.
+
+** AC_INIT again allows parentheses and other characters that are literal
+   in single- or double-quoted strings, and in quoted and unquoted
+   here-documents, for its PACKAGE and VERSION arguments.  Regression
+   introduced in 2.66.
+
+** autoreconf passes warning flags to new enough versions of aclocal.
+
+** Running an Autotest testsuite in parallel mode no longer triggers a
+   race condition that could cause the testsuite run to end early,
+   fixing a sporadic failure in autoconf's own testsuite.  Bug present
+   since introduction of parallel tests in 2.63b.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.66 (2010-07-02) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.65.*.
+
+** AC_FUNC_MMAP works in C++ mode again.  Regression introduced in 2.65.
+
+** Use of m4_divert without a named diversion now issues a syntax warning,
+   since it is seldom right to change diversions behind autoconf's back.
+
+** The macros AC_TYPE_INT8_T, AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T, and
+   AC_TYPE_INT64_T work again.  Regression introduced in 2.65.
+
+** AC_PROG_INSTALL correctly uses `shtool' again.  Regression introduced
+   in 2.64.
+
+** Autoconf should work on EBCDIC hosts.
+
+** AC_CHECK_DECL and AC_CHECK_DECLS accept optional function argument types
+   for overloaded C++ functions.
+
+** AS_SET_CATFILE accepts nonliterals in its variable name argument now.
+
+** Autotest testsuites accept an option --recheck to rerun tests that
+   failed or passed unexpectedly during the last non-debug testsuite run.
+
+** AC_ARG_ENABLE and AC_ARG_WITH now also accept `+' signs in `--enable-*'
+   and `--with-*' arguments, converting them to underscores for the variable
+   names.
+
+** In configure scripts, loading CONFIG_SITE no longer searches PATH,
+   and problems in loading the configuration site files are diagnosed.
+
+** Autotest testsuites may optionally provide colored test results.
+
+** The previously undocumented Autotest macros AT_ARG_OPTION and
+   AT_ARG_OPTION_ARG have seen bug fixes and are documented now.
+   AT_ARG_OPTION has been changed in that the negative of a long option
+   --OPTION is now --no-OPTION rather than --noOPTION.
+
+** The macro AS_LITERAL_IF is slightly more conservative; text
+   containing shell quotes are no longer treated as literals.
+   Furthermore, a new macro, AS_LITERAL_WORD_IF, adds an additional
+   level of checking that no whitespace occurs in literals.
+
+** The macros AS_TR_SH and AS_TR_CPP no longer expand their results.
+
+** The following macros are now documented:
+   AS_BOX
+
+** New macro AC_FC_FIXEDFORM to accept fixed-form Fortran.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.65 (2009-11-21) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.64.*.
+
+** Autoconf is now licensed under the General Public License version 3
+   or later (GPLv3+).  As with earlier versions, the license includes
+   an exception clause so that you may release a configure script
+   generated by autoconf under the license of your own program.
+
+** New macros to support Objective C++.
+   AC_PROG_OBJCXX  AC_PROG_OBJCXXCPP
+
+** The following undocumented autoconf macros, removed in Autoconf 2.64,
+   have been reinstated:
+   AH_CHECK_HEADERS
+
+   These macros are present only for backwards compatibility purposes.
+
+** The macro AC_LANG_COMPILER no longer fails on embedded systems that
+   lack fopen in the C library, such as AVR or RTEMS (regression
+   introduced in 2.64).
+
+** The AC_FC_FREEFORM macro no longer suffers from a whitespace bug that
+   made it fail with some Fortran compilers (regression introduced in
+   2.64).
+
+** The AC_TYPE_UINT64_T and AC_TYPE_INT64_T macros have been fixed to no
+   longer mistakenly select a 32-bit type on some compilers (bug present
+   since macros were introduced in 2.59c).
+
+** The AC_FUNC_MMAP macro has been fixed to be portable to systems like
+   Cygwin (bug present since macro was introduced in 2.0).
+
+** The following documented autotest macros are new:
+   AT_CHECK_EUNIT
+
+** The following m4sugar macros now quote their expansion:
+   m4_toupper  m4_tolower
+
+** The following m4sugar macros are new:
+   m4_escape
+
+** The m4sugar macro m4_text_wrap now copes with embedded quoting without
+   requiring quadrigraphs.  For uses like AC_ARG_VAR([a], [[b c]]),
+   this gives the intuitive behavior of "[b c]" in the output (2.63
+   gave the output of "[b], [c]", and 2.64 encountered a failure).
+
+** The `$tmp' temporary directory used in config.status is documented for
+   public use now.
+
+** config.status now provides a --config option to produce the configuration.
+
+** Many cache variables used by Autoconf's macros are now documented.
+
+** Configure scripts work better on DJGPP by avoiding a bug present in
+   the DJGPP port of bash 2.04 in handling 'return' in a shell
+   function (regression introduced in 2.64).
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.64 (2009-07-26) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.63b.*.
+
+** Autoconf now requires GNU M4 1.4.6 or later.  Earlier versions of M4
+   have a bug in regular expression handling that interferes with some
+   of the speedups provided since Autoconf 2.63.  GNU M4 1.4.13 or
+   later is recommended.
+
+** AS_IF and AS_CASE have been taught to avoid syntax errors even when
+   given arguments that expand to just whitespace.
+
+** The following documented autoconf macros are new:
+   AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER
+
+** The autoheader tool now understands m4 macro arguments passed to
+   AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED.
+
+** Ensure AT_CHECK can support commands that include a # given with
+   proper m4 quoting.  For shell comments, this is a new feature; for
+   non-shell comments, this fixes a regression introduced in 2.63b.
+   Additionally, AT_CHECK correctly supplies shell escapes for
+   metacharacters occurring in m4 macro expansions within the expected
+   stdout and stderr parameters.
+
+** The macro AT_CHECK now understands the concept of hard failure.  If
+   a test exits with an unexpected status 99, cleanup actions for the
+   test are inhibited and the test is treated as a failure regardless
+   of AT_XFAIL_IF.  It also understands the new directives
+   ignore-nolog, stdout-nolog, and stderr-nolog.
+
+** The following documented autotest macros are new:
+   AT_CHECK_UNQUOTED  AT_FAIL_IF  AT_SKIP_IF
+
+** The following documented m4sugar macros are new:
+   m4_argn  m4_copy_force  m4_default_nblank  m4_default_nblank_quoted
+   m4_ifblank  m4_ifnblank  m4_rename_force
+
+** The autoconf testsuite now exercises all Erlang macros.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.63b (2009-03-31) [beta]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.63.*.
+
+** The manual is now shipped under the terms of the GNU FDL 1.3.
+
+** AC_REQUIRE now detects the case of an outer macro which first expands
+   then later indirectly requires the same inner macro.  Previously,
+   this case led to silent out-of-order expansion (bug present since
+   2.50); it now issues a syntax warning, and duplicates the expansion
+   of the inner macro to guarantee dependencies have been met.  See
+   the manual for advice on how to refactor macros in order to avoid
+   the bug in earlier autoconf versions and avoid increased script
+   size in the current version.
+
+** AC_DEFUN_ONCE has improved semantics.  Previously, a macro declared
+   with AC_DEFUN_ONCE warned on a second invocation; and out-of-order
+   expansion was still possible.  Now, dependencies are guaranteed,
+   and subsequent invocations are a silent no-op.  This makes
+   AC_DEFUN_ONCE an ideal macro for silencing AC_REQUIRE warnings.
+
+** The following macros are now defined with AC_DEFUN_ONCE.  This means
+   a subtle change in semantics; previously, an AC_DEFUN macro could
+   expand one of these macros multiple times or surround the macro
+   inside shell conditional text to bypass the effects of these
+   macros, but now the macro will expand exactly once, and prior to
+   the start of any enclosing AC_DEFUN macro:
+   AC_CANONICAL_BUILD  AC_CANONICAL_HOST  AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
+   AC_HEADER_ASSERT  AC_PROG_INSTALL  AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
+   AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
+
+** AC_LANG_ERLANG works once again (regression introduced in 2.61a).
+
+** AC_HEADER_ASSERT is fixed so that './configure --enable-assert' no
+   longer mistakenly disables assertions.
+
+** AC_INIT now takes an optional fifth parameter that can be used to
+   set AC_PACKAGE_URL, a URL for the package's home page; the URL is
+   used in `configure --help' and is also available via AC_DEFINE.
+
+** Autotest testsuites accept an option --jobs[=N] for parallel testing.
+   This feature is still in testing, and may not work on every
+   platform, help in improving it would be appreciated.
+
+** Autotest testsuites do not attempt to write startup error messages
+   to the log file before that is opened (regression introduced in 2.63).
+
+** Configure scripts now use shell functions.  This feature leads to
+   smaller configure files and faster execution.
+
+** Present But Cannot Be Compiled: Autoconf will now proceed with
+   the compiler's result if a header is present but cannot be compiled.
+   The warning is still printed, and you should really fix it by
+   providing a fourth parameter to AC_CHECK_HEADER/AC_CHECK_HEADERS.
+
+** Autoreconf added aclocal to the set of programs affected by the
+   `autoreconf -I dir' option.
+
+** The following documented m4sugar macros are new:
+   m4_chomp  m4_chomp_all  m4_cleardivert  m4_curry  m4_default_quoted
+   m4_esyscmd_s  m4_map_args  m4_map_args_pair  m4_map_args_sep
+   m4_map_args_w  m4_set_map  m4_set_map_sep  m4_stack_foreach
+   m4_stack_foreach_lifo  m4_stack_foreach_sep
+   m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo
+
+** The following m4sugar macros are documented now, but in some cases
+   with slightly different semantics than what the previous
+   undocumented version had:
+   m4_copy  m4_dumpdefs  m4_rename  m4_version_prereq
+
+** The m4sugar macro m4_expand has been taught to handle unterminated
+   comments and shell case statements.  As a result, it is used
+   internally in more places, such as AC_DEFINE and AT_CHECK.  Most
+   uses of AC_DEFINE and AT_CHECK should not behave any differently;
+   however, it may be necessary to add double-quoting around
+   unbalanced `(' where single-quoting used to be sufficient.
+
+** The following documented m4sh macros are new:
+   AS_INIT_GENERATED  AS_LINENO_PREPARE  AS_ME_PREPARE  AS_SET_STATUS
+   AS_VAR_APPEND  AS_VAR_ARITH  AS_VAR_COPY
+
+** The following m4sh macros are documented now, but in some cases
+   with slightly different semantics than what the previous
+   undocumented version had:
+   AS_ECHO  AS_ECHO_N  AS_ESCAPE  AS_EXIT  AS_LITERAL_IF  AS_UNSET
+   AS_VAR_IF  AS_VAR_POPDEF  AS_VAR_PUSHDEF  AS_VAR_SET  AS_VAR_SET_IF
+   AS_VAR_TEST_SET  AS_VERSION_COMPARE
+
+** The m4sh macros AS_IF and AS_CASE can now be used in shell lists.
+   The responsibility for supplying a trailing newline now belongs to
+   the call site, but since most users did not add dnl, this generally
+   results in fewer empty lines in configure.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.63 (2008-09-09) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.62.*.
+
+** AC_C_BIGENDIAN does not mistakenly report "universal" for some
+   bigendian hosts, a regression introduced with universal binary
+   support in 2.62.
+
+** AC_PATH_X now includes /lib64 and /usr/lib64 in its list of default
+   library directories.
+
+** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS no longer conflicts with an external
+   AC_DEFINE([__EXTENSIONS__]).  This fixes a regression introduced in
+   2.62 when using macros such as AC_AIX that were made obsolete in
+   favor of the more portable AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS.
+
+** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS is usable in the non-cross-compile case.
+
+** Newly obsolete macros
+   The following macro has been marked obsolete, since current porting
+   targets can safely assume C89 semantics that signal handlers return
+   void.  We have no current plans to remove the macro.
+
+     AC_TYPE_SIGNAL
+
+** The macros m4_map and m4_map_sep now ignore any list elements
+   consisting of just empty quotes, and m4_map_sep now expands its
+   separator.  This fixes a regression in 2.62 when these macros were
+   first documented, for the sake of clients expecting the semantics
+   that these macros had prior to that time.  The new macros m4_mapall
+   and m4_mapall_sep, along with extra quoting of the separator, can
+   be used to get the semantics that m4_map_sep had in 2.62.
+
+** Clients of m4_expand, such as AS_HELP_STRING and AT_SETUP, can now
+   handle properly quoted but otherwise unbalanced parentheses (for
+   some macros, this fixes a regression in 2.62).
+
+** Two new quadrigraphs have been introduced: @{:@ for (, and @:}@ for ),
+   allowing the output of unbalanced parentheses in more contexts.
+
+** The following m4sugar macros are new:
+   m4_cleardivert  m4_joinall  m4_mapall  m4_mapall_sep  m4_reverse
+   m4_set_add  m4_set_add_all  m4_set_contains  m4_set_contents
+   m4_set_delete  m4_set_difference  m4_set_dump  m4_set_empty
+   m4_set_foreach  m4_set_intersection  m4_set_list  m4_set_listc
+   m4_set_remove  m4_set_size  m4_set_union
+
+** The following m4sugar macros now accept multiple arguments, as is the
+   case with underlying m4:
+   m4_defn  m4_popdef  m4_undefine
+
+** The following m4sugar macros now guarantee linear scaling; they
+   previously had linear scaling with m4 1.6 but quadratic scaling
+   when using m4 1.4.x.  All macros built on top of these also gain
+   the scaling improvements.
+   m4_bmatch  m4_bpatsubsts  m4_case  m4_cond  m4_do  m4_dquote_elt
+   m4_foreach  m4_join  m4_list_cmp  m4_map  m4_map_sep  m4_max
+   m4_min  m4_shiftn
+
+** AT_KEYWORDS once again performs expansion on its argument, such that
+   AT_KEYWORDS([m4_if([$1], [], [default])]) no longer complains about
+   the possibly unexpanded m4_if [regression introduced in 2.62].
+
+** Config header templates `#undef UNDEFINED /* comment */' do not lead to
+   nested comments any more; regression introduced in 2.62.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.62 (2008-04-05) [stable]
+  Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.61a.*.
+
+** Many optimizations have been applied to make overall execution faster.
+
+** Autotest now makes use of shell functions.
+
+** config.status now uses awk instead of sed also for config headers.
+
+   - As a side effect, AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED now handle multi-line
+     values, i.e., backslash-newline combinations are handled correctly.
+     Further, for config headers, the total size of values is not limited by
+     the POSIX length limit of text lines any more, only each single line.
+
+** New config variable `top_build_prefix'.
+
+** New Autoconf macros:
+   AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION  AC_OPENMP  AC_PATH_PROGS_FEATURE_CHECK
+
+** AC_C_BIGENDIAN now supports universal binaries a la Mac OS X.
+
+** AC_C_RESTRICT now prefers to #define 'restrict' to a variant spelling
+   like '__restrict' if the variant spelling is available, as this is
+   more likely to work when mixing C and C++ code.
+
+** AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF's type argument T is now documented better: it must
+   be a string of tokens such that "T y;" is a valid member declaration
+   in a struct.
+
+** AC_CHECK_SIZEOF now accepts objects as well as types: the general rule
+   is that sizeof (X) works, then AC_CHECK_SIZEOF (X) should work.
+
+** AC_CHECK_TYPE and AC_CHECK_TYPES now work on any C type-name; formerly,
+   they did not work for function types.  In C++, they now work on any
+   type-id that can be the operand of sizeof; this is similar to C,
+   except it excludes anonymous struct and union types.  Formerly,
+   some (but not all) C++ types involving anonymous struct and union
+   were accepted, though this was not documented.
+
+** AC_CONFIG_LINKS now prefers to link against files in the build tree
+   if found, and it works to link against a file of the same name in
+   the source tree, even if both trees coincide.
+
+** AC_INIT no longer alters $@; regression introduced in 2.60.
+
+** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS now defines _ALL_SOURCE for Interix platforms.
+
+** AS_HELP_STRING no longer underquotes its first argument; it also handles
+   the case where the first argument contains single-quoted commas.
+   For example, "AS_HELP_STRING([-a, [--arg[=foo]]], [bar])" produces:
+     "  -a, --arg[=foo]         bar"
+   Additionally, the macro now takes two additional arguments,
+   indent-column and wrap-column; these should not normally be needed,
+   but can be used to fine-tune how the output text is wrapped.
+
+** AC_PROG_INSTALL now requires an install program that can install multiple
+   files into a target directory.
+
+** The command 'autoconf -' now correctly processes a file from stdin.
+
+** 'autoreconf -m' now honors $MAKE.
+
+** For all of the directory arguments for 'configure', such as '--prefix'
+   or '--bindir', trailing slashes are stripped.  As an example, if
+   tab completion in the user's shell appends trailing slashes, the
+   command './configure --prefix=/usr/' will still result in an
+   expanded libdir value of /usr/lib, not /usr//lib.
+
+** `configure --help=recursive' now works in read-only trees and from
+   unconfigured build trees.
+
+** If precious variables differ only in whitespace, then the cache consistency
+   check warns instead of fails, and reuses the old value.
+
+** AT_BANNER is now documented.
+
+** AT_SETUP now handles macro expansions properly when calculating line
+   length.
+
+** Autotest now determines $srcdir correctly.
+
+** Testsuites built by autotest now accept a -C/--directory=DIR option
+   to adjust the working directory prior to creating files.
+
+** Autoconf now requires GNU M4 1.4.5 or later.  Earlier versions of M4 have
+   a bug in macro tracing that interferes with the interaction between
+   Autoconf and Automake.  GNU M4 1.4.11 or later is recommended.  The
+   configure search for a working M4 is improved.
+
+** For portability with the eventual M4 2.0, macros should no longer use
+   anything larger than $9 to refer to arguments.
+
+** Documentation for m4sugar is improved.
+
+   - The following macros were previously available as undocumented
+     interfaces; the macros are now documented as stable interfaces.
+
+     __oline__  m4_assert  m4_bmatch  m4_bpatsubsts  m4_car  m4_case
+     m4_cdr  m4_default  m4_divert_once  m4_divert_pop  m4_divert_push
+     m4_divert_text  m4_do  m4_errprintn  m4_fatal  m4_flatten
+     m4_ifndef  m4_ifset  m4_ifval  m4_ifvaln  m4_location
+     m4_n  m4_shiftn  m4_strip  m4_warn
+
+   - The following macros were previously available as undocumented
+     interfaces, but had bug fixes or semantic changes as part of this
+     release.  Packages that relied on the undocumented behavior
+     should be analyzed to make sure they will still work with the
+     new documented behavior.
+
+     m4_cmp  m4_list_cmp  m4_join  m4_map  m4_map_sep  m4_sign
+     m4_text_box  m4_text_wrap  m4_version_compare
+
+   - The m4_wrap macro used to have unspecified order, but now
+     guarantees FIFO order.  m4_wrap_lifo was added to guarantee LIFO
+     order.
+
+   - Packages using the undocumented m4sugar macro m4_PACKAGE_VERSION
+     should consider using the new AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION instead.
+
+   - m4sugar macros that are not documented in the manual are still
+     deemed experimental, and should not be used outside of Autoconf.
+
+** The m4sugar macros m4_append and m4_append_uniq, first documented in
+   2.60, have been fixed to treat both the string and the separator
+   arguments consistently with regards to quoting.  Prior to this fix,
+   m4_append_uniq could mistakenly duplicate entries if the expansion
+   of the separator resulted in a different string (for example, if it
+   contained quotes, a comma, or a macro name).  However, it means
+   that programs previously using
+     m4_append([name], [string], [[, ]])
+   are now using a four-character separator instead of the intended
+   comma and space.  If you need portability to earlier versions of
+   Autoconf, you can insert the following snippet after AC_INIT but
+   before any other macro expansions, to enforce the new semantics:
+     m4_pushdef([m4_append], [m4_define([$1],
+	   m4_ifdef([$1], [m4_defn([$1])[$3]])[$2])])
+   Additionally, m4_append_uniq now takes optional parameters that can
+   be used to take action depending on whether anything was appended,
+   and warns if a non-empty separator occurs within the string being
+   appended, since that can lead to duplicates.
+
+** The following m4sugar macros are new:
+   m4_append_uniq_w  m4_apply  m4_combine  m4_cond  m4_count
+   m4_dquote_elt  m4_echo  m4_expand  m4_ignore  m4_make_list  m4_max
+   m4_min  m4_newline  m4_shift2  m4_shift3  m4_unquote  m4_wrap_lifo
+
+** Warnings are now generated by default when an installer invokes
+   'configure' with an unknown --enable-* or --with-* option.
+   These warnings can be disabled with the new AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING
+   macro, or by invoking 'configure' with --disable-option-checking.
+
+** Existing obsolete macros
+   The documentation for the following macros is adjusted to make it
+   more clear that they have previously been marked obsolete, as their
+   functionality can be accomplished by other macros.  We have no
+   current plans to remove them from Autoconf.
+
+     AC_ENABLE  AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE  AC_STRUCT_ST_RDEV  AC_WITH
+
+** Newly obsolete macros
+   The following macros have been marked obsolete, as they only
+   perform a subset of AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS.  We have no current
+   plans to remove them.
+
+     AC_AIX  AC_GNU_SOURCE  AC_ISC_POSIX  AC_MINIX
+
+** AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE is obsolescent.
+   The documentation now says that AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE is obsolescent: it
+   tests for problems that are so old that it is no longer of
+   practical importance on current systems.  New programs need not use
+   AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE.  We have no current plans to remove it.
+
+** AC_DIAGNOSE, AC_WARNING, and AC_FATAL are obsolescent.
+   The documentation now favors the use of M4sugar macros m4_warn and
+   m4_fatal, since the naming makes it more obvious that the
+   diagnostics are associated with M4 expansion (ie. when running
+   `autoconf'), and offers less confusion with the AC_MSG_ERROR,
+   AC_MSG_FAILURE, and AC_MSG_WARN macros which manage diagnostics
+   when running `configure'.  We have no current plans to remove these
+   macros.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.61a (2006-12-11)
+
+** AC_FUNC_FSEEKO was broken in 2.61; it didn't make fseeko and ftello visible
+   on many platforms.  This has been fixed.
+
+** AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED is now obsolete.  It is still defined for backward
+   compatibility but it does nothing.  The macro was already
+   obsolescent, as the last systems to have the problem were those
+   based on SVR2, which became obsolete in 1987.  The macro had bugs
+   on some modern systems and could no longer be maintained reliably
+   due to lack of ancient systems to test it on.
+
+** config.status now uses awk instead of sed for most substitutions, for speed.
+
+   - As a side effect multi-line values of substituted variables no
+     longer have a small limit in total size, though for portability
+     each line should not exceed the POSIX length limit for text lines.
+
+   - It is now documented that Makefile.in should not contain
+     overlapping variable occurrences, e.g., @VAR1@VAR2@.
+     Autoconf's behavior was always iffy in such cases, and the
+     awk implementation has changed the behavior.
+
+** Many uses of 'echo' have been rewritten so that Autoconf-generated
+   scripts have fewer problems with strings or file names containing
+   embedded special characters such as backslash or leading "-".  This
+   was implemented by using `printf '%s\n' "$foo"' instead of `echo
+   "$foo"' when printf works.  Due to the implementation technique
+   used, Autoconf-generated scripts now run considerably more slowly
+   on ancient implementations lacking printf.  However, this should
+   not be a problem, since Autoconf-generated scripts in practice
+   invariably find a more-modern shell these days.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.61 (2006-11-17)
+
+** New macros AC_C_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER, AC_C_VARARRAYS.
+
+** AC_ARG_ENABLE and AC_ARG_WITH now allow '.' in feature and package names.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.60b (2006-10-22)
+
+** BIN_SH
+  Autoconf-generated shell scripts no longer export BIN_SH, due to
+  configuration hassles with this.  Installers who need BIN_SH in
+  their environment should set it before invoking 'configure' and
+  'make'.  As far as we know, this affects only Unixware installations.
+
+** Obsolescent macros
+  The documentation now says that the following macros are obsolescent,
+  as they are superseded by Gnulib:
+
+    AC_FUNC_FNMATCH  AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU  AC_FUNC_GETLOADVG  AC_REPLACE_FNMATCH
+
+  New programs should use the Gnulib counterparts of these macros.
+  We have no current plans to remove them from Autoconf.
+
+** AC_COMPUTE_INT no longer caches or reports results.
+
+** AC_CHECK_DECL now also works with aggregate objects.
+
+** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS now defines _TANDEM_SOURCE for NonStop platforms.
+
+** GNU M4 1.4.7 or later is now recommended.
+
+** m4_mkstemp
+  New M4sugar macro, which is more secure than the POSIX M4 maketemp.
+
+** m4_maketemp
+  Now an alias for m4_mkstemp.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.60a (2006-08-25)
+
+** GNU M4 1.4.6 or later is now recommended.
+
+** The check for C99 now tests for varargs macros, as documented.
+  It also tests that the preprocessor supports 64-bit integers.
+
+** Autoconf now uses constructs like "#ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H" rather than
+  "#if HAVE_STDLIB_H", so that it now works with "gcc -Wundef -Werror".
+
+** The functionality of the undocumented _AC_COMPUTE_INT is now provided
+  by a public and documented macro, AC_COMPUTE_INT.  The parameters to the
+  two macros are different, so autoupdate will not change the old private name
+  to the new one.  _AC_COMPUTE_INT may be removed in a future release.
+
+** AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT and AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT now require
+   that long long types be at least 64 bits wide, as C99 and tradition
+   requires.  Formerly, they accepted implementations of any width.
+
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.60
+
+  Released 2006-06-23, by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+** Autoconf no longer depends on whether m4wrap is FIFO (as Posix requires)
+  or LIFO (as in GNU M4 1.4.x).  GNU M4 2.0 is expected to conform to Posix
+  here, so m4wrap/m4_wrap users should no longer depend on LIFO behavior.
+
+** Provide a way to turn off warnings about the changed directory variables.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59d
+
+  Released 2006-06-05, by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+** GNU make now recommended for VPATH builds
+  INSTALL now suggests VPATH builds (e.g., "sh ../srcdir/configure")
+  only if you use GNU make.  In practice, other 'make' implementations
+  have too many subtle incompatibilities in their support for VPATH.
+  Many packages (including Autoconf itself) are portable to other
+  'make' implementations, but some packages are not, and recommending
+  GNU make keeps the installation instructions simpler.
+
+** Even more safety checks for the new Directory variables:
+  Warn about suspicious `${datarootdir}' found in config files output.
+
+** AC_TRY_COMMAND, AC_TRY_EVAL, ac_config_guess, ac_config_sub, ac_configure
+  These never-documented macros and variables have been marked with
+  comments saying that they may be removed in a future release,
+  because their use can lead to unintended code being executed.
+  If you need functionality that only these macros or variables
+  currently supply, please write bug-autoconf@gnu.org.
+
+** AC_SUBST, AC_DEFINE
+  Literal arguments to these are passed to m4_pattern_allow now.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC_STDC
+  Passing 'ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc=no' to 'configure' now sets ac_cv_prog_cc_c99
+  and ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 to 'no' as well, for backward compatibility with
+  obsolete K&R tests in the Automake test suite.
+
+** AC_PROG_CXX_C_O
+  New macro.
+
+** AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
+  New macro.
+
+** AS_MKDIR_P
+  Now more robust with special characters in file names, or when
+  multiple processes create the same directory at the same time.
+
+** Obsolescent macros
+  The documentation now says that the following macros are obsolescent:
+  they test for problems that are so old that they are no longer of
+  practical importance on current systems.
+
+    AC_C_BACKSLASH_A       AC_FUNC_MEMCMP            AC_HEADER_DIRENT
+    AC_C_CONST             AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES   AC_HEADER_STAT
+    AC_C_PROTOTYPES        AC_FUNC_SETPGRP           AC_HEADER_STDC
+    AC_C_STRINGIZE         AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED  AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT
+    AC_C_VOLATILE          AC_FUNC_STAT              AC_HEADER_TIME
+    AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID  AC_FUNC_STRFTIME          AC_ISC_POSIX
+    AC_FUNC_GETPGRP        AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL        AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL
+    AC_FUNC_LSTAT          AC_FUNC_VPRINTF           AC_STRUCT_TM
+
+  New programs need not use these macros.  We have no current plans to
+  remove them.
+
+** autoreconf
+  For compatibility with future Libtool 2.0, autoreconf will invoke
+  libtoolize with the option `--ltdl' now, if LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR is
+  used.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59c
+
+  Released 2006-04-12, by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+** The configure command now redirects standard input from /dev/null,
+  to help avoid problems with subsidiary commands that might mistakenly
+  read standard input.  AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD points to the original
+  standard input before this redirection, if you really want configure to
+  read from standard input.
+
+** Directory variables adjusted to recent changes in the GNU Coding Standards.
+  The following directory variables are new:
+
+    datarootdir   read-only architecture-independent data root [PREFIX/share]
+    localedir     locale-specific message catalogs [DATAROOTDIR/locale]
+    docdir        documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/PACKAGE]
+    htmldir       html documentation [DOCDIR]
+    dvidir        dvi documentation [DOCDIR]
+    pdfdir        pdf documentation [DOCDIR]
+    psdir         ps documentation [DOCDIR]
+
+  The following variables have new default values:
+
+    datadir       read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR]
+    infodir       info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info]
+    mandir        man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
+
+  This means that if you use any of `@datadir@', `@infodir@', or
+  `@mandir@' in a file, you will have to ensure `${datarootdir}' is
+  defined in this file.  As a temporary measure, if any of those are
+  found but no mention of `datarootdir', the substitutions will be
+  replaced with values that do not contain `${datarootdir}', and a
+  warning will be issued.
+
+** @top_builddir@ is now a dir name: it is always nonempty and doesn't have
+  a trailing slash.  Similar change will be made to ac_top_builddir in a
+  future release; the old style value, which matches (../)*, is (and will
+  continue to be) available as ac_top_build_prefix.
+
+** AC_C_TYPEOF
+  New macro to check for support of 'typeof' syntax a la GNU C.
+
+** AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE
+  New "once-only" variants of commonly-used macros, to make 'configure'
+  smaller and faster in common cases.
+
+** AC_FUNC_STRTOLD
+  New macro to check for strtold with C99 semantics.
+
+** AC_HEADER_ASSERT
+  New macro that lets builder disable assertions at 'configure'-time.
+
+** AC_PATH_X
+  Now checks for X11/Xlib.h and XrmInitialize (X proper) rather than
+  X11/Intrinsic.h and XtMalloc (Xt).
+
+** AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER
+  New macro that causes `configure' to display help strings for AC_ARG_ENABLE
+  and AC_ARG_WITH arguments in one region, in the order defined.  The default
+  behavior is to group options of each classes separately.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX
+  No longer automatically arrange to declare the 'exit' function of C,
+  when a C++ compiler is used.  Standard Autoconf macros no longer use
+  'exit', so this is no longer an issue for them.  If you use C++, and
+  want to call 'exit', you'll have to arrange for its declaration
+  yourself.  But we now suggest you return from 'main' instead.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC_C89, AC_PROG_CC_C99
+  New macros for ISO C99 support.  AC_PROG_CC_C89 and AC_PROG_CC_C99
+  check for ANSI C89 and ISO C99 support respectively.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC_STDC
+  Has been unobsoleted, and will check if the compiler supports ISO
+  C99, falling back to ANSI C89 if not.  ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc is
+  retained for backwards compatibility, assuming the value of
+  ac_cv_prog_cc_c99 or ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 (whichever is valid, in
+  that order).
+
+** AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO, AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE
+  New macros for checking commonly-used members of struct dirent.
+
+** AC_SUBST
+  The substituted value can now contain newlines.
+
+** AC_SUBST_FILE
+  The substitution now occurs only when @variable@ is on a line by itself,
+  optionally surrounded by spaces and tabs.  The whole line is replaced.
+
+** AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE, AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER
+  New macros to check for long double, and whether it is wider than double.
+  The old macro AC_C_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE has been marked as obsolete;
+  applications should switch to the new macro.
+
+** AC_TYPE_INT8_T, AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T, AC_TYPE_INT64_T,
+   AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_INTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT, AC_TYPE_SSIZE_T,
+   AC_TYPE_UINT8_T, AC_TYPE_UINT16_T, AC_TYPE_UINT32_T, AC_TYPE_UINT64_T,
+   AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_UINTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT
+  New macros to check for C99 and POSIX types.
+
+** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
+  New macro to enable extensions to Posix.
+
+** AH_HEADER
+  New macro which is defined to the name of the first declared config header
+  or undefined if no config headers have been declared yet.
+
+** AS_HELP_STRING
+  The macro correctly handles quadrigraphs now.
+
+** AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE, AS_SHELL_SANITIZE, AS_CASE
+  These macros are new or published now.
+
+** AT_COPYRIGHT
+  New macro for copyright notices in testsuite files.
+
+** ALLOCA, LIBOBJS, LTLIBOBJS
+  Object names added to these variables are now prefixed with `${LIBOBJDIR}',
+  as in `${LIBOBJDIR}alloca.o'.  LIBOBJDIR is meant to be defined from
+  `Makefile.in' in case the object files lie in a different directory.
+  The LIBOBJDIR feature is experimental.
+
+** autoreconf
+  Supports --no-recursive now.
+
+** New macros to support Erlang/OTP.
+  New macros for configuring paths to Erlang tools and libraries:
+  AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL,
+  AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERL, AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ROOT_DIR,
+  AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR.
+
+  New macros for configuring installation of Erlang libraries:
+  AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_SUBDIR.
+
+** The manual now mentions Gnulib more prominently.
+
+** New macros to support Objective C.
+  AC_PROG_OBJC, AC_PROG_OBJCPP.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59b
+
+  Released 2004-08-20, by Paul Eggert.
+
+** AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF
+  New macro that computes the default alignment of a type.
+
+** AC_CHECK_TOOL, AC_PATH_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TOOLS
+  When cross-compiling, these macros will give a warning if the tool
+  is not prefixed.  In the future, unprefixed cross tools will not
+  be detected; please consult the info documentation for information
+  about the reason of this change.
+
+** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL, AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS
+  New macros that detect programs whose name is prefixed with the
+  target type, if the build type and target type are different.
+
+** AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE
+  New trace macro that declares expected auxiliary files.
+
+** AC_PROG_GREP
+  New macro that tests for a grep program that accepts as a long a line
+  as possible.
+
+** AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP
+  These macros now require AC_PROG_GREP, and try EGREP="$GREP -E" and
+  FGREP="$GREP -F" respectively if possible, or else run a path search for
+  a program that accepts as long a line as possible.
+
+** AC_PROG_SED
+  New macro that tests for a sed program that truncates as few characters
+  as possible.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59
+
+  Released 2003-11-04, by Akim Demaille
+
+** ac_abs_builddir etc.
+  Absolute file names were actually relative in 2.58.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.58
+
+  Released 2003-11-04, by Akim Demaille
+
+** core.*
+  core.* files are no longer removed, as they may be valid user files.
+
+** autoreconf and auxiliary directory
+  Autoreconf creates the auxiliary directory if needed.  This is
+  especially useful for initial "bootstrapping" of fresh CVS checkouts.
+
+** AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR
+  Use this macro to declare the directory for local M4 macros for aclocal.
+
+** AC_LIBOBJS
+  No longer includes twice the same file in LIBOBJS if invoked
+  multiple times.
+
+** AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS
+  The directory for its first argument is automatically created.  For
+  instance, with
+
+      AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([src/modules.hh], [...])
+
+  $top_builddir/src/ is created if needed.
+
+** Autotest and local.at
+  The optional file local.at is always included in Autotest test suites.
+
+** Warnings
+  The warnings are always issued, including with cached runs.
+  This became a significant problem since aclocal and automake can
+  run autoconf behind the scene.
+
+** autoheader warnings
+  The warnings of autoheader can be turned off, using --warning.
+  For instance, -Wno-obsolete disables the complaints about acconfig.h
+  and other deprecated constructs.
+
+** New macros
+  AC_C_RESTRICT, AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT, AC_LANG_ASSERT, AC_LANG_WERROR,
+  AS_SET_CATFILE.
+
+** AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST
+  Works again.
+
+** AC_FUNC_MKTIME
+  Now checks that mktime is the inverse of localtime.
+
+** Improve DJGPP portability
+  The Autoconf tools and configure behave better under DJGPP.
+
+** Present But Cannot Be Compiled
+  New FAQ section dedicated to the mystic
+
+    configure: WARNING: pi.h: present but cannot be compiled
+    configure: WARNING: pi.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
+    configure: WARNING: pi.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
+      messages.
+
+** Concurrent executions of autom4te
+  autom4te now locks its internal files, which enables concurrent
+  executions of autom4te, likely to happen if automake, autoconf,
+  autoheader etc. are run simultaneously.
+
+** Libtool
+  Use of Libtool 1.5 and higher is encouraged.  Compatibility with
+  Libtool pre-1.4 is not checked.
+
+** Autotest
+  Testsuites no longer rerun failed tests in verbose mode; instead,
+  failures are logged while the test is run.
+
+  In addition, expected failures can be marked as such.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.57
+
+  Released 2002-12-03 by Paul Eggert.
+
+Bug fixes for problems with AIX linker, with freestanding C compilers,
+with GNU M4 limitations, and with obsolete copies of GNU documents.
+
+The Free Documentation License has been upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.56
+
+  Released 2002-11-15 by Akim Demaille.
+
+One packaging problem fixed (config/install-sh was not executable).
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.55
+
+  Released 2002-11-14 by Akim Demaille.
+
+Release tips:
+
+	   Have your configure.ac checked by autoscan ("autoscan").
+	     Try the warning options ("autoreconf -fv -Wall").
+
+** Documentation
+
+- AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS
+  More information on proper use.
+
+- Writing Test Programs
+
+  This sections explains how to write good test sources to use with
+  AC_COMPILE_IFELSE etc.  It documents AC_LANG_PROGRAM and so forth.
+
+- AC_FOO_IFELSE vs. AC_TRY_FOO
+
+  Explains why Autoconf moves from AC_TRY_COMPILE etc. to
+  AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM etc.
+
+** autoreconf
+
+- Is more robust to different Gettext installations.
+
+- Produces messages (when --verbose) to be understood by Emacs'
+  compile mode.
+
+- Supports -W/--warnings.
+
+- -m/--make
+  Once the GNU Build System reinstalled, run `./config.status
+  --recheck && ./config.status && make' if possible.
+
+** autom4te
+
+- Supports --cache, and --no-cache.
+
+- ~/.autom4te.cfg makes it possible to disable the caching mechanism
+  (autom4te.cache).  See `Customizing autom4te' in the documentation.
+
+** config.status
+  Supports --quiet.
+
+** Obsolete options
+
+  Support for the obsoleted options -m, --macrodir, -l, --localdir is
+  dropped in favor of the safer --include/--prepend-include scheme.
+
+** Macros
+
+- New macros
+  AC_COMPILER_IFELSE, AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC, AC_HEADER_STDBOOL,
+  AC_LANG_CONFTEST, AC_LANG_SOURCE, AC_LANG_PROGRAM, AC_LANG_CALL,
+  AC_LANG_FUNC_TRY_LINK, AC_MSG_FAILURE, AC_PREPROC_IFELSE.
+
+- Obsoleted
+  Obsoleted macros are kept for Autoconf backward compatibility, but
+  should be avoided in configure.ac.  Running autoupdate is advised.
+  AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST.
+
+- AC_DEFINE/AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED
+
+  We have to stop using the old compatibility scheme --that tried to
+  avoid useless backslashes-- because Libtool 1.4.3 contains a
+
+  AC_DEFINE([error_t], [int],
+	    [Define to a type to use for \`error_t' if it is not
+	     otherwise available.])
+
+  We have to quote the single quotes and backslashes with \.  The old
+  compatibility scheme saw that ` was backslashed, and therefore did
+  not quote the single quote...  Failure.  Hence, Autoconf 2.54 is not
+  compatible with Libtool.  Autoconf 2.55 is, but in some cases might
+  produce more \ than wanted.
+
+  Please, note that in the future the same problem will happen with
+  AC_MSG_*: use `autoreconf -f -Wall'.
+
+** Bug Fixes
+
+- Portability of the Autoconf package to Solaris.
+
+- Spurious warnings caused by config.status.
+  This bug is benign, but painful: on some systems (typically
+  FreeBSD), warnings such as:
+
+     config.status: creating Makefile
+     mv: Makefile: set owner/group (was: 1357/0): Operation not permitted
+
+  could be issued.  This is fixed.
+
+- Parallel Builds
+  Simultaneous executions of config.status are possible again.
+
+- Precious variables accumulation
+
+  config.status could stack several copies of the precious variables
+  assignments.
+
+
+** Plans for later versions
+
+- ./configure <host>
+
+  The compatibility hooks with the old scheme will be completely
+  removed.  Please, advice/use `--build', `--host', and `--target'
+  only.
+
+- AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS
+
+  The tests will be stricter, please make sure your invocations are
+  valid.
+
+- shell functions
+
+  Shell functions will gradually be introduced, probably starting with
+  Autotest.  If you know machines which are in use that you suspect
+  *not* to support shell functions, please run the test suite of
+  Autoconf 2.55 on it, and report the results to
+  bug-autoconf@gnu.org.
+
+- AC_MSG_*
+
+  Special characters in AC_MSG_* need not be quoted.  Currently,
+  Autoconf has heuristics to decide when a string is escaped, or has
+  to be escaped.  This scheme is fragile, and will be removed; the
+  only risk is uglified messages.  Please, run `autoreconf -f -Wall'
+  to find occurrences that will be affected.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.54
+
+  Released 2002-09-13 by Akim Demaille.
+
+** Executables
+
+- autoreconf no longer changes the version of the gettext/po/intl
+  support files. It now adds the files the correspond to the
+  AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION declared in configure.ac.
+
+  Warning: It now relies on the 'autopoint' program, which is part
+  of GNU gettext 0.11.4 and newer.
+
+  Please note that you need to have a GNU gettext version that
+  corresponds at least to the AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION declared
+  in configure.ac. You can upgrade to newer GNU gettext versions,
+  though, without needing to change configure.ac.
+
+- The -I DIR or --include=DIR option now appends DIR to the include path
+  instead of prepending; this is for consistency with other GNU tools.
+  The new -B DIR or --prepend-include=DIR option has the old behavior.
+
+** Macros
+
+- AC_OUTPUT
+  Now handles all the gory details about LIBOBJS and LTLIBOBJS.
+  Please, remove lines such as
+
+	# This is necessary so that .o files in LIBOBJS are also
+	# built via the ANSI2KNR-filtering rules.
+	LIBOBJS=`echo $LIBOBJS|sed 's/\.o /\$U.o /g;s/\.o$/\$U.o/'`
+
+  and read the `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS' section.  Do not define U in
+  your Makefiles either.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_LINKS now makes copies if it can't make links.
+
+- AC_FUNC_FNMATCH now tests only for POSIX compatibility, reverting to
+  Autoconf 2.13 behavior.  The new macro AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU also
+  tests for GNU extensions to fnmatch, and replaces fnmatch if needed.
+
+- AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED no longer fails when cross-compiling.
+
+- AC_PROG_CC_STDC is integrated into AC_PROG_CC.
+
+- AC_PROG_F77 default search no longer includes cf77 and cfg77.
+
+- New macros
+
+  AC_C_BACKSLASH_A, AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR, AC_GNU_SOURCE,
+  AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP, AC_REPLACE_FNMATCH,
+  AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU, AC_FUNC_REALLOC, AC_TYPE_MBSTATE_T.
+
+- AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
+  looks for getloadavg.c in the CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
+
+- AC_FUNC_MALLOC
+  Now defines HAVE_MALLOC to 0 if `malloc' does not work, and asks
+  for an AC_LIBOBJ replacement.
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+- Spurious complaints from `m4_bmatch' about invalid regular
+  expressions are suppressed.
+
+- Empty top_builddirs are properly handled.
+
+- AC_CHECK_MEMBER works correctly when the member is an aggregate.
+
+- AC_PATH_PROG
+  Now colon in the optional path arguments are properly handled.
+
+** Improved portability
+
+- Both Autoconf the package, and the scripts it produces, should run
+  more reliably with Zsh.  Bear in mind it is the default Bourne shell
+  on Darwin.
+
+- Autoconf and the scripts it produces no longer assume the existence of
+  the obsolescent commands egrep and fgrep.
+
+** Documentation
+
+- Limitations of Make
+  More of them.
+
+- GNATS
+  The GNATS base moved to
+  http://bugs.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=autoconf
+  (It is no longer available, though.)
+
+** Misc.
+
+- config.log
+  Now contains the list of output variables and files (AC_SUBST,
+  AC_SUBST_FILES).
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.53
+
+  Released 2002-03-08 by Akim Demaille.
+
+** Requirements
+
+  Perl 5.005_03 or later is required: autom4te is written in Perl and is
+  needed by autoconf.  autoheader, autoreconf, ifnames, and autoscan are
+  rewritten in Perl.
+
+** Documentation
+
+- AC_INIT
+  Argument requirements, output variables, defined macros.
+- M4sugar, M4sh, Autotest
+  First sketch.
+- Double quoting macros
+  AC_TRY_CPP, AC_TRY_COMPILE, AC_TRY_LINK and AC_TRY_RUN.
+- Licensing
+  The Autoconf manual is now distributed under the terms of the GNU FDL.
+- Section `Hosts and Cross-Compilation'
+  Explains the rationale for the 2.5x changes in the cross-compilation
+  chain, and in the relationships between build, host, and target
+  types.
+  Emphasizes that `cross-compilation' == `--host is given'.
+  If you are working on compilers etc., be sure to read this section.
+- Section `AC_LIBOBJ vs. LIBOBJS'
+  Explains why assigning LIBOBJS directly is now an error.
+  Details how to update the code.
+
+** configure
+
+- $LINENO
+  Now used instead of hard coded line numbers.
+  This eases the comparison of `configure's, and diminishes the
+  pressure over control version archives.
+  Automatic replacement for shells that don't support this feature.
+- New output variables
+  @builddir@, @top_builddir@, @abs_srcdir@, @abs_top_srcdir@, @abs_builddir@,
+  @abs_top_builddir@.
+
+** Emacs
+
+  Autoconf and Autotest modes are provided.
+
+** Executables
+
+- autom4te
+  New, used by the Autoconf suite to cache and speed up most processing.
+- --force, -f
+  Supported by autom4te, autoconf and autoheader.
+- --include, -I
+  Replaces --autoconf-dir and --localdir in autoconf, autoheader,
+  autoupdate, and autoreconf.
+- autoreconf
+  No longer passes --cygnus, --foreign, --gnits, --gnu, --include-deps:
+  automake options are to be given via AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
+- autoreconf
+  Runs gettextize and libtoolize when appropriate.
+- autoreconf
+  --m4dir is no longer supported.
+- autoreconf
+  Now runs only in the specified directories, defaulting to `.',
+  but understands AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS for dependent directories.
+  Before, it used to run on all the `configure.ac' found in the
+  current tree.
+  Independent packages are properly updated.
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+- The top level $prefix is propagated to the AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS configures.
+- AC_TRY_RUN
+  Under the user pressure, $? is finally available.  Probably a mistake.
+- AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS now supports the HP/UX f90 compiler.
+- Precious variables accumulation
+  config.status could stack several copies of the precious variables
+  assignments.
+- AC_PATH_PROG and family.
+  Works properly when given a literal path.
+- AC_FUNC_SETPGRP
+  Somewhere since 2.13, the result had been reversed.
+
+** C Macros
+
+- AC_C_BIGENDIAN supports the cross-compiling case.
+- AC_C_BIGENDIAN accepts ACTION-IF-TRUE, ACTION-IF-FALSE, and
+  ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN arguments.  All are optional, and the default
+  for ACTION-IF-TRUE is to define WORDS_BIGENDIAN like AC_C_BIGENDIAN
+  always did.
+- AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE now succeeds only if `long double' has more range or
+  precision than `double'.
+
+** Generic macros
+
+- AC_INIT
+  It now defines the preprocessor symbols PACKAGE_NAME,
+  PACKAGE_TARNAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, PACKAGE_STRING, and
+  PACKAGE_BUGREPORT.
+
+- AC_INIT
+  Admits a fourth optional parameter: the tar name.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, HEADERS, FILES, LINKS.
+  Provide the user with srcdir, ac_srcdir, ac_top_srcdir, ac_builddir,
+  ac_top_builddir, ac_abs_srcdir, ac_abs_top_srcdir, ac_abs_builddir,
+  ac_abs_top_builddir.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, HEADERS, FILES, LINKS and AC_OUTPUT.
+  Are much less expensive when using long lists of files.
+
+- AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM
+  Works with shell variables, and non alphanumeric names.
+
+** Library macros
+
+- AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R now sets STRERROR_R_CHAR_P, not HAVE_WORKING_STRERROR_R,
+  because POSIX 1003.1-200x draft 7 says strerror_r returns int, not char *.
+
+- AC_FUNC_STRTOD substitutes POW_LIB.
+
+- AC_FUNC_STRNLEN
+  New.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.52
+
+  Released 2001-07-18 by Akim Demaille.
+
+** Documentation
+- AC_ARG_VAR
+- Quadrigraphs
+  This feature was present in autoconf 2.50 but was not documented.
+  For example, `@<:@' is translated to `[' just before output.  This
+  is useful when writing strings that contain unbalanced quotes, or
+  other hard-to-quote constructs.
+- m4_pattern_forbid, m4_pattern_allow
+- Tips for upgrading from 2.13.
+- Using autoscan to maintain a configure.ac.
+
+** Default includes
+- Now include stdint.h.
+- sys/types.h and sys/stat.h are guarded.
+- strings.h is included if available, and not conflicting with string.h.
+
+** Bug fixes
+- The test suite is more robust and presents less false failures.
+- Invocation of GNU M4 now robust to POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+- configure accepts --prefix='' again.
+- AC_CHECK_LIB works properly when its first argument is not a
+  literal.
+- HAVE_INTTYPES_H is defined only if not conflicting with sys/types.h.
+- build_, host_, and target_alias are AC_SUBST as in 2.13.
+- AC_ARG_VAR properly propagates precious variables inherited from the
+  environment to ./config.status.
+- Using --program-suffix/--program-prefix is portable.
+- Failures to detect the default compiler's output extension are less
+  likely.
+- `config.status foo' works properly when `foo' depends on variables
+  set in an AC_CONFIG_THING INIT-CMD.
+- autoheader is more robust to broken input.
+- Fixed Fortran name-mangling and link tests on a number of systems,
+  e.g. NetBSD; see AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN, below.
+
+** Generic macros
+- AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_HEADERS support a fourth argument to
+  specify pre-includes.  In this case, the headers are compiled with
+  cc, not merely preprocessed by cpp.  Therefore it is the _usability_
+  of a header which is checked for, not just its availability.
+- AC_ARG_VAR refuses to run configure when precious variables have
+  changed.
+- Versions of compilers are dumped in the logs.
+- AC_CHECK_TYPE recognizes use of `foo_t' as a replacement type.
+
+** Specific Macros
+- AC_PATH_XTRA only adds -ldnet to $LIBS if it's needed to link.
+- AC_FUNC_WAIT3 and AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS are obsoleted.
+- AM_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AM_FUNC_FNMATCH, AM_FUNC_MKTIME,
+  AM_FUNC_OBSTACK, and AM_FUNC_STRTOD are now activated.
+  Be sure to read `Upgrading from Version 2.13' to understand why
+  running `autoupdate' is needed.
+- AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN, AC_F77_MAIN: new macros to detect whether
+  a main-like routine is required/possible when linking C/C++ with
+  Fortran.  Users of e.g. AC_F77_WRAPPERS should be aware of these.
+- AC_FUNC_GETPGRG behaves better when cross-compiling.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.51
+There was no release of Autoconf 2.51 since some packagers had used
+this version number without permission to ship intermediary versions
+of 2.50.  The version was skipped to avoid confusion.
+
+* Major changes in Autoconf 2.50
+
+  Released 2001-05-21 by Akim Demaille.
+
+** Lots of bug fixes
+There have been far too many to enumerate them here.  Check out
+ChangeLog if you really want to know more.
+
+** Improved documentation
+In particular, portability issues are better covered.
+
+** Use of Automake
+All the standard GNU Makefile targets are supported.  The layout has
+changed: m4/ holds the M4 extensions Autoconf needs for its
+configuration, doc/ contains the documentation, and tests/ contains
+the test suite.
+
+** Man pages are provided
+For autoconf, autoreconf, autoupdate, autoheader, autoscan, ifnames,
+config.guess, config.sub.
+
+** autoconf
+- --trace
+  Provides a safe and powerful means to trace the macro uses.  This
+  provide the parsing layer for tools which need to `study'
+  configure.in.
+
+- --warnings
+  Specify what category of warnings should be enabled.
+
+- When recursing into subdirectories, try for configure.gnu before
+  configure to adapt for packages not using autoconf on case-insensitive
+  file systems.
+
+- Diagnostics
+  More errors are now caught (circular AC_REQUIRE dependencies,
+  AC_DEFINE in the action part of an AC_CACHE_CHECK, too many pops
+  etc.).  In addition, their location and call stack are given.
+
+** autoupdate
+autoupdate is much more powerful, and is able to provide the glue code
+which might be needed to move from an old macro to its newer
+equivalent.
+
+You are strongly encouraged to use it to modernize both your
+`configure.in' and your .m4 extension files.
+
+** autoheader
+The internal machinery of autoheader has completely changed.  As a
+result, using `acconfig.h' should be considered to be obsoleted, and
+you are encouraged to get rid of it using the AH macros.
+
+** autoreconf
+Extensive overhaul.
+
+** Fortran 77 compilers
+Globally, the support for Fortran 77 is considerably improved.
+
+Support for automatically determining a Fortran 77 compiler's
+name-mangling scheme.  New CPP macros F77_FUNC and F77_FUNC_ are
+provided to wrap C/C++ identifiers, thus making it easier and more
+transparent for C/C++ to call Fortran 77 routines, and Fortran 77 to
+call C/C++ routines.  See the Texinfo documentation for details.
+
+** Test suite
+The test suite no longer uses DejaGNU.  It should be easy to submit
+test cases in this new framework.
+
+** configure
+- --help, --help=long, -hl
+  no longer dumps useless items.
+- --help=short, -hs
+  lists only specific options.
+- --help=recursive, -hr
+  displays the help of all the embedded packages.
+- Remembers environment variables when reconfiguring.
+  The previous scheme to set envvar before running configure was
+    ENV=VAL ./configure
+  what prevented configure from remembering the environment in which
+  it was run, therefore --recheck was run in an inconsistent
+  environment.  Now, one should run
+    ./configure ENV=VAR
+  and then --recheck will work properly.  Variables declared with
+  AC_ARG_VAR are also preserved.
+- cross-compilation
+  $build defaults to `config.guess`, $host to $build, and then $target
+  to $host.
+  Cross-compilation is a global status of the package, it no longer
+  depends upon the current language.
+  Cross compilation is enabled iff the user specified `--host'.
+  `configure' now fails if it can't run the executables it compiles,
+  unless cross-compilation is enabled.
+- Cache file
+  The cache file is disabled by default.  The new options
+  `--config-cache', `-C' set the cache to `config.cache'.
+
+** config.status
+- faster
+  Much faster on most architectures.
+- concurrent executions
+  It is safe to use `make -j' with config.status.
+- human interface improved
+  It is possible to invoke
+    ./config.status foobar
+  instead of the former form (still valid)
+    CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_HEADERS= CONFIG_LINKS= \
+    CONFIG_FILES=foobar:foo.in:bar.in \
+    ./config.status
+  The same holds for configuration headers and links.
+  You can instantiate unknown files and headers:
+    ./config.status --header foo.h:foo.h.in --file bar:baz
+- has a useful --help
+- accepts special file name "-" for stdin/stdout
+
+
+** Identity Macros
+- AC_COPYRIGHT
+  Specify additional copyright information.
+
+- AC_INIT
+  Now expects the identity of the package as argument.
+
+** General changes.
+- Uniform quotation
+  Most macros, if not all, now strictly follow the `one quotation
+  level' rule.  This results in a more predictable expansion.
+
+- AC_REQUIRE
+  A sly bug in the AC_REQUIRE machinery, which could produce incorrect
+  configure scripts, was fixed by Axel Thimm.
+
+** Setup Macros
+- AC_ARG_VAR
+  Document and ask for the registration of an envvar.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR
+  Specifies the file which `configure' should look for when trying to
+  find the source tree (used to be handled by AC_INIT).
+
+- AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS
+  To add new actions to config.status.  Should be used instead of
+  AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_LINKS
+  Replaces AC_LINK_FILES.
+
+- AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS, AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS,
+  AC_CONFIG_LINKS, and AC_CONFIG_FILES
+  They now obey sh: you should no longer use shell variables as
+  argument.  Instead of
+
+	test "$package_foo_enabled" = yes && $my_subdirs="$my_subdirs foo"
+	AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS($my_subdirs)
+
+  write
+
+	if test "$package_foo_enabled" = yes; then
+	  AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(foo)
+	fi
+
+- AC_HELP_STRING
+  To format an Autoconf macro's help string so that it looks pretty
+  when the user executes `configure --help'.
+
+
+** Generic Test Macros
+- AC_CHECK families
+  The interface of the AC_CHECK families of macros (decl, header,
+  type, member, func) is now uniform.  They support the same set of
+  default includes.
+
+- AC_CHECK_DECL, AC_CHECK_DECLS
+  To check whether a symbol is declared.
+
+- AC_CHECK_SIZEOF, AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED.
+  No longer need a cross-compilation default.
+
+- AC_CHECK_TYPE
+  The test it performs is much more robust than previously, and makes
+  it possible to test builtin types in addition to typedefs.
+  It is now schizophrenic:
+    - AC_CHECK_TYPE(TYPE, REPLACEMENT)
+      remains for backward compatibility, but its use is discouraged.
+    - AC_CHECK_TYPE(TYPE, IF-FOUND, IF-NOT-FOUND, INCLUDES)
+      behaves exactly like the other AC_CHECK macros.
+
+- AC_CHECK_TYPES
+  Checks whether given types are supported by the system.
+
+- AC_CHECK_MEMBER, AC_CHECK_MEMBERS
+  Check for given members in aggregates (e.g., pw_gecos in struct
+  passwd).
+
+- AC_PROG_CC_STDC
+  Checks if the compiler supports ISO C, included when needs special
+  options.
+
+- AC_PROG_CPP
+  Checking whether the preprocessor indicates missing includes by the
+  error code. stderr is checked by AC_TRY_CPP only as a fallback.
+
+- AC_LANG
+  Takes a language as argument and replaces AC_LANG_C,
+  AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS and AC_LANG_FORTRAN77.
+
+- AC_LANG_PUSH, AC_LANG_POP
+  Are preferred to AC_LANG_SAVE, AC_LANG_RESTORE.
+
+** Specific Macros
+- AC_FUNC_CHOWN, AC_FUNC_MALLOC, AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R,
+  AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK, AC_FUNC_STAT, AC_FUNC_LSTAT,
+  AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AC_FUNC_OBSTACK, AC_FUNC_STRTOD, AC_FUNC_FSEEKO.
+  New.
+
+- AC_FUNC_GETGROUPS
+  Sets GETGROUPS_LIBS.
+
+- AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
+  Defines `HAVE_STRUCT_NLIST_N_UN_N_NAME' instead of `NLIST_NAME_UNION'.
+
+- AC_PROG_LEX
+  Now integrates `AC_DECL_YYTEXT' which is obsoleted.
+
+- AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
+  Arrange for large-file support.
+
+- AC_EXEEXT, AC_OBJEXT
+  You are no longer expected to use them: their computation is
+  performed by default.
+
+** C++ compatibility
+  Every macro has been revisited in order to support at best CC=c++.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.14:
+  There was no release of GNU Autoconf 2.14.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.13:
+
+  Released 1999-05-01 by Ben Elliston.
+
+* Support for building on 32-bit Windows systems where the only available C or
+  C++ compiler is the Microsoft Visual C++ command line compiler
+  (`cl').  Additional support for building on 32-bit Windows systems which are
+  using the Cygwin or Mingw32 environments.
+* Support for alternative object file and executable file extensions.
+  On 32-bit Windows, for example, these are .obj and .exe. These are discovered
+  using AC_OBJEXT and AC_EXEEXT, which substitute @OBJEXT@ and
+  @EXEEXT@ in the output, respectively.
+* New macros: AC_CACHE_LOAD, AC_CACHE_SAVE, AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES,
+  AC_VALIDATE_CACHED_SYSTEM_TUPLE, AC_SEARCH_LIBS, AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC,
+  AC_C_STRINGIZE, AC_CHECK_FILE(S), AC_PROG_F77 (and friends).
+* AC_DEFINE now has an optional third argument for a description to be
+  placed in the config header input file (e.g. config.h.in).
+* The C++ code fragment compiled for the C++ compiler test had to be
+  improved to include an explicit return type for main(). This was
+  causing failures on systems using recent versions of the EGCS C++
+  compiler.
+* Fixed an important bug in AC_CHECK_TYPE that would cause a configure
+  script to report that `sometype_t' was present when only `type_t'
+  was defined.
+* Merge of the FSF version of config.guess and config.sub to modernize
+  these scripts. Add support for a few new hosts in config.guess.
+  Incorporate latest versions of install-sh, mkinstalldirs and
+  texinfo.tex from the FSF.
+* autoreconf is capable of running automake if necessary (and
+  applicable).
+* Support for Fortran 77. See the Texinfo documentation for details.
+* Bug fixes and workarounds for quirky bugs in vendor utilities.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.12:
+
+  Released 1996-11-26 by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* AC_OUTPUT and AC_CONFIG_HEADER can create output files by
+  concatenating multiple input files separated by colons, like so:
+  AC_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h:conf.pre:config.h.in:conf.post)
+  AC_OUTPUT(Makefile:Makefile.in:Makefile.rules)
+  The arguments may be shell variables, to compute the lists on the fly.
+* AC_LINK_FILES and AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS may be called multiple times.
+* New macro AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS adds more commands to run in config.status.
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.11:
+
+  Released November 18th, 1996, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* AC_PROG_CC and AC_PROG_CXX check whether the compiler works.
+  They also default CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to "-g -O2" for gcc, instead of "-g -O".
+* AC_REPLACE_FUNCS defines HAVE_foo if the system has the function `foo'.
+* AC_CONFIG_HEADER expands shell variables in its argument.
+* New macros: AC_FUNC_FNMATCH, AC_FUNC_SETPGRP.
+* The "checking..." messages and the source code for test programs that
+  fail are saved in config.log.
+* Another workaround has been added for seds with small command length limits.
+* config.sub and config.guess recognize more system types.
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.10:
+
+  Released May 7th, 1996, by Roland McGrath
+
+* Bug fixes.
+* The cache variable names used by `AC_CHECK_LIB(LIB, FUNC, ...)' has
+  changed: now $ac_cv_lib_LIB_FUNC, previously $ac_cv_lib_LIB.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.9:
+
+  Released March 16th, 1996, by Roland McGrath
+
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.8:
+
+  Released March 8th, 1996, by Roland McGrath
+
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.7:
+
+  Released November 22nd, 1995, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.6:
+
+  Released November 20th, 1995, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* Bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.5:
+
+  Released November 17th, 1995, by Roland McGrath
+
+* New configure options --bindir, --libdir, --datadir, etc., with
+  corresponding output variables.
+* New macro: AC_CACHE_CHECK, to make using the cache easier.
+* config.log contains the command being run as well as any output from it.
+* AC_CHECK_LIB can check for libraries with "." or "/" or "+" in their name.
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL doesn't cache a name for install-sh, for sharing caches.
+* AC_CHECK_PROG, AC_PATH_PROG, AC_CHECK_PROGS, AC_PATH_PROGS, and
+  AC_CHECK_TOOL can search a path other than $PATH.
+* AC_CHECK_SIZEOF takes an optional size to use when cross-compiling.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.4:
+
+  Released June 14th, 1995, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* Fix a few bugs found by Emacs testers.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.3:
+
+  Released March 27th, 1995, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* Fix the cleanup trap in several ways.
+* Handle C compilers that are picky about option placement.
+* ifnames gets the version number from the right directory.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.2:
+
+  Released March 8th, 1995, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* The ifnames utility is much faster but requires a "new awk" interpreter.
+* AC_CHECK_LIB and AC_HAVE_LIBRARY check and add the new
+  library before existing libs, not after, in case it uses them.
+* New macros: AC_FUNC_GETPGRP, AC_CHECK_TOOL.
+* Lots of bug fixes.
+* Many additions to the TODO file :-)
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.1:
+
+  Released November 4th, 1994, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+* Fix C++ problems.
+* More explanations in the manual.
+* Fix a spurious failure in the testsuite.
+* Clarify some warning messages.
+* autoreconf by default only rebuilds configure and config.h.in files
+  that are older than any of their particular input files; there is a
+  --force option to use after installing a new version of Autoconf.
+
+Thanks to everybody who's submitted changes and additions to Autoconf!
+I've incorporated many of them, and am still considering others for
+future releases -- but I didn't want to postpone this release indefinitely.
+
+Caution: don't indiscriminately rebuild configure scripts with
+Autoconf version 2.  Some configure.in files need minor adjustments to
+work with it; the documentation has a chapter on upgrading.  A few
+configure.in files, including those for GNU Emacs and the GNU C
+Library, need major changes because they relied on undocumented
+internals of version 1.  Future releases of those packages will have
+updated configure.in files.
+
+It's best to use GNU M4 1.3 (or later) with Autoconf version 2.
+Autoconf now makes heavy use of M4 diversions, which were implemented
+inefficiently in GNU M4 releases before 1.3.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 2.0:
+
+  Released October 26th, 1994, by David J. MacKenzie
+
+** New copyright terms:
+* There are no restrictions on distribution or use of configure scripts.
+
+** Documentation:
+* Autoconf manual is reorganized to make information easier to find
+  and has several new indexes.
+* INSTALL is reorganized and clearer and is now made from Texinfo source.
+
+** New utilities:
+* autoscan to generate a preliminary configure.in for a package by
+  scanning its source code for commonly used nonportable functions,
+  programs, and header files.
+* ifnames to list the symbols used in #if and #ifdef directives in a
+  source tree.
+* autoupdate to update a configure.in to use the version 2 macro names.
+* autoreconf to recursively remake configure and configuration header
+  files in a source tree.
+
+** Changed utilities:
+* autoheader can take pieces of acconfig.h to replace config.h.{top,bot}.
+* autoconf and autoheader can look for package-local definition files
+  in an alternate directory.
+
+** New macros:
+* AC_CACHE_VAL to share results of tests between configure runs.
+* AC_DEFUN to define macros, automatically AC_PROVIDE them, and ensure
+  that macros invoked with AC_REQUIRE don't interrupt other macros.
+* AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_LINK_FILES to
+  support deciding unguessable features based on the host and target types.
+* AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS to recursively configure a source tree.
+* AC_ARG_PROGRAM to use the options --program-prefix,
+  --program-suffix, and --program-transform-name to change the names
+  of programs being installed.
+* AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT to change the default installation prefix.
+* AC_TRY_COMPILE to compile a test program without linking it.
+* AC_CHECK_TYPE to check whether sys/types.h or stdlib.h defines a given type.
+* AC_CHECK_LIB to check for a particular function and library.
+* AC_MSG_CHECKING and AC_MSG_RESULT to print test results, on a single line,
+  whether or not the test succeeds.  They obsolete AC_CHECKING and AC_VERBOSE.
+* AC_SUBST_FILE to insert one file into another.
+* AC_FUNC_MEMCMP to check whether memcmp is 8-bit clean.
+* AC_FUNC_STRFTIME to find strftime even if it's in -lintl.
+* AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to find getmntent even if it's in -lsun or -lseq.
+* AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT to check whether sys/wait.h is POSIX.1 compatible.
+
+** Changed macros:
+* Many macros renamed systematically, but old names are accepted for
+  backward compatibility.
+* AC_OUTPUT adds the "automatically generated" comment to
+  non-Makefiles where it finds @configure_input@ in an input file, to
+  support files with various comment syntaxes.
+* AC_OUTPUT does not replace "prefix" and "exec_prefix" in generated
+  files when they are not enclosed in @ signs.
+* AC_OUTPUT allows the optional environment variable CONFIG_STATUS to
+  override the file name "config.status".
+* AC_OUTPUT takes an optional argument for passing variables from
+  configure to config.status.
+* AC_OUTPUT and AC_CONFIG_HEADER allow you to override the input-file names.
+* AC_OUTPUT automatically substitutes the values of CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS,
+  CPPFLAGS, and LDFLAGS from the environment.
+* AC_PROG_CC and AC_PROG_CXX now set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, respectively.
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL looks for install-sh or install.sh in the directory
+  specified by AC_CONFIG_AUXDIR, or srcdir or srcdir/.. or
+  srcdir/../.. by default.
+* AC_DEFINE, AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED, and AC_SUBST are more robust and smaller.
+* AC_DEFINE no longer prints anything, because of the new result reporting
+  mechanism (AC_MSG_CHECKING and AC_MSG_RESULT).
+* AC_VERBOSE pays attention to --quiet/--silent, not --verbose.
+* AC_ARG_ENABLE and AC_ARG_WITH support whitespace in the arguments to
+  --enable- and --with- options.
+* AC_CHECK_FUNCS and AC_CHECK_HEADERS take optional shell commands to
+  execute on success or failure.
+* Checking for C functions in C++ works.
+
+** Removed macros:
+* AC_REMOTE_TAPE and AC_RSH removed; too specific to tar and cpio, and
+  better maintained with them.
+* AC_ARG_ARRAY removed because no one was likely using it.
+* AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG replaced with AC_SYS_INTERPRETER, which doesn't
+  take arguments, for consistency with all of the other specific checks.
+
+** New files:
+* Comes with config.sub and config.guess, and uses them optionally.
+* Uses config.cache to cache test results.  An alternate cache file
+  can be selected with the --cache-file=FILE option.
+* Uses optional shell scripts $prefix/share/config.site and
+  $prefix/etc/config.site to perform site or system specific initializations.
+* configure saves compiler output to ./config.log for debugging.
+* New files autoconf.m4 and autoheader.m4 load the other Autoconf macros.
+* acsite.m4 is the new name for the system-wide aclocal.m4.
+* Has a DejaGnu test suite.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.11:
+
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL calls install.sh with the -c option.
+* AC_SET_MAKE cleans up after itself.
+* AC_OUTPUT sets prefix and exec_prefix if they weren't set already.
+* AC_OUTPUT prevents shells from looking in PATH for config.status.
+
+Plus a few other bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.10:
+
+* autoheader uses config.h.bot if present, analogous to config.h.top.
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL looks for install.sh in srcdir or srcdir/.. and
+  never uses cp.
+* AC_PROG_CXX looks for cxx as a C++ compiler.
+
+Plus several bugs fixed.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.9:
+
+* AC_YYTEXT_POINTER replaces AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT.
+* AC_SIZEOF_TYPE generates the cpp symbol name automatically,
+  and autoheader generates entries for those names automatically.
+* AC_FIND_X gets the result from xmkmf correctly.
+* AC_FIND_X assumes no X if --without-x was given.
+* AC_FIND_XTRA adds libraries to the variable X_EXTRA_LIBS.
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL finds OSF/1 installbsd.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.8:
+
+** New macros:
+* New macros AC_LANG_C, AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS, AC_LANG_SAVE, AC_LANG_RESTORE,
+  AC_PROG_CXX, AC_PROG_CXXCPP, AC_REQUIRE_CPP
+  for checking both C++ and C features in one configure script.
+* New macros AC_CHECKING, AC_VERBOSE, AC_WARN, AC_ERROR for printing messages.
+* New macros AC_FIND_XTRA, AC_MMAP, AC_SIZEOF_TYPE, AC_PREREQ,
+  AC_SET_MAKE, AC_ENABLE.
+
+** Changed macros:
+* AC_FIND_X looks for X in more places.
+* AC_PROG_INSTALL defaults to install.sh instead of cp, if it's in srcdir.
+  install.sh is distributed with Autoconf.
+* AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT has been removed because it can't work, pending
+  a rewrite of quoting in AC_DEFINE.
+* AC_OUTPUT adds its comments in C format when substituting in C files.
+* AC_COMPILE_CHECK protects its ECHO-TEXT argument with double quotes.
+
+** New or changed command line options:
+* configure accepts --enable-FEATURE[=ARG] and --disable-FEATURE options.
+* configure accepts --without-PACKAGE, which sets withval=no.
+* configure accepts --x-includes=DIR and --x-libraries=DIR.
+* Giving --with-PACKAGE no argument sets withval=yes instead of withval=1.
+* configure accepts --help, --version, --silent/--quiet, --no-create options.
+* configure accepts and ignores most other Cygnus configure options, and
+  warns about unknown options.
+* config.status accepts --help, --version options.
+
+** File names and other changes:
+* Relative srcdir values are not made absolute.
+* The values of @prefix@ and @exec_prefix@ and @top_srcdir@ get substituted.
+* Autoconf library files are installed in ${datadir}/autoconf, not ${datadir}.
+* autoheader optionally copies config.h.top to the beginning of config.h.in.
+* The example Makefile dependencies for configure et al. work better.
+* Namespace cleanup: all shell variables used internally by Autoconf
+  have names beginning with `ac_'.
+
+More big improvements are in process for future releases, but have not
+yet been (variously) finished, integrated, tested, or documented enough
+to release yet.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.7:
+
+* New macro AC_OBSOLETE.
+* Bugs in Makefile.in fixed.
+* AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES improved.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.6:
+
+* New macro AC_LONG_64_BITS.
+* Multiple .h files can be created.
+* AC_FIND_X looks for X files directly if it doesn't find xmkmf.
+* AC_ALLOCA defines C_ALLOCA if using alloca.c.
+* --with-NAME can take a value, e.g., --with-targets=sun4,hp300bsd.
+* Unused --no-create option to configure removed.
+* autoheader doesn't change the timestamp of its output file if
+  the file didn't change.
+* All macros that look for libraries now use AC_HAVE_LIBRARY.
+* config.status checks three optional environment variables to
+  modify its behavior.
+* The usual bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.5:
+
+* New macros AC_FIND_X, AC_OFF_T, AC_STAT_MACROS_BROKEN, AC_REVISION.
+* autoconf and autoheader scripts have GNU standards conforming
+  --version and --help options (they print their message and exit).
+* Many bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.4:
+
+* New macros AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG, AC_TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME, AC_LONG_DOUBLE,
+  AC_GETGROUPS_T, AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED.
+* autoconf and autoheader use the M4 environment variable to determine the
+  name of the M4 program to use.
+* The --macrodir option to autoconf and autoheader specifies the directory
+  in which acspecific.m4, acgeneral.m4, etc. reside if not the default.
+* autoconf and autoheader can take `-' as their file names, which means to
+  read stdin as input.
+* Resulting configure scripts can take a --verbose option which causes them
+  to print the results of their tests.
+* AC_DEFINE quotes its second argument in such a way that spaces, magic
+  shell characters, etc. will be preserved during various stages of
+  expansion done by the shell.  If you don't want this, use
+  AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED instead.
+* Much textual processing done with external calls to tr and sed have been
+  internalized with builtin M4 `patsubst' and `translit' calls.
+* AC_OUTPUT doesn't hardwire the file names it outputs.  Instead, you can
+  set the shell variables `gen_files' and `gen_config' to the list of
+  file names to output.
+* AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT does an AC_SUBST of `LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT', which may be
+  "lex.yy" or "lexyy", depending on the system.
+* AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK takes an optional third arg.  If given, it is used as
+  the default value.
+* If AC_ALLOCA chooses alloca.c, it also defines STACK_DIRECTION.
+* AC_CONST works much more reliably on more systems.
+* Many bug fixes.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.3:
+
+configure no longer requires awk for packages that use a config.h.
+Support handling --with-PACKAGE options.
+New `autoheader' script to create `config.h.in' from `configure.in'.
+Ignore troublesome -lucb and -lPW when searching for alloca.
+Rename --exec_prefix to --exec-prefix for GNU standards conformance.
+Improve detection of STDC library.
+Add AC_HAVE_LIBRARY to check for non-default libraries.
+Function checking should work with future GNU libc releases.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.2:
+
+The --srcdir option is now usually unnecessary.
+Add a file containing sample comments describing CPP macros.
+A comment in config.status tells which host it was configured on.
+Substituted variable values can now contain commas.
+Fix bugs in various feature checks.
+
+Major changes in Autoconf 1.1:
+
+Added AC_STRCOLL macro.
+Made AC_GETLOADAVG check for more things.
+AC_OUTPUT argument is now optional.
+Various bug fixes.

+
+Autoconf
+
+Autoconf is an extensible package of M4 macros that produce shell
+scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.
+These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like
+systems without manual user intervention.  Autoconf creates a
+configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the
+operating system features that the package can use, in the form of M4
+macro calls.
+
+Producing configuration scripts using Autoconf requires GNU M4 and
+Perl.  You should install GNU M4 (version 1.4.6 or later is required;
+1.4.14 or later is recommended) and Perl (5.006 or later) before
+configuring Autoconf, so that Autoconf's configure script can find
+them.  The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf are
+self-contained, so their users do not need to have Autoconf (or GNU
+M4, Perl, etc.).
+
+You can get GNU M4 here:
+
+ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/
+
+The file INSTALL should be distributed with packages that use
+Autoconf-generated configure scripts and Makefiles that conform to the
+GNU coding standards.  The package's README can just give an overview
+of the package, where to report bugs, and a pointer to INSTALL for
+instructions on compilation and installation.  This removes the need
+to maintain many similar sets of installation instructions.
+
+Be sure to read BUGS and INSTALL.
+
+Mail suggestions to autoconf@gnu.org, report bugs to
+bug-autoconf@gnu.org, and submit patches to autoconf-patches@gnu.org.
+All changes can be tracked at the read-only autoconf-commit@gnu.org.
+Always include the Autoconf version number, which you can get by
+running `autoconf --version'.  Archives of bug-autoconf@gnu.org can be
+found in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/>, and
+similarly for the other mailing lists.

+Things it might be nice to do someday.  I haven't evaluated all of
+these suggestions... their presence here doesn't imply my endorsement.
+-djm & his successors.
+
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Soon
+
+** AC_CHECK_HEADERS
+and the like, don't have a consistent way to handle multi-line
+arguments.  Fix, test, and document.
+
+** --target & AC_ARG_PROGRAM
+Shouldn't *any* `program' be installed as `$target_alias-program' even
+if AC_ARG_PROGRAM is not called?  That would be much more predictable.
+Ian?
+
+** AC_CHECK_TOOL...
+Write a test that checks that it honors the values set by the user.
+
+** autom4te and warnings.
+Decide what must be done.
+
+** AC_DEFINE(func, rpl_func)
+This scheme causes problems: if for instance, #define malloc
+rpl_malloc, then the rest of configure will use an undefined malloc.
+Hence some tests fail.  Up to now we simply #undef these functions
+where we had a problem (cf. AC_FUNC_MKTIME and AC_FUNC_MMAP for
+instance).  This is _bad_.  Maybe the #define func rpl_malloc should
+be performed in another file than confdefs.h, say confh.h, which is
+used for config.h generation, but not used in configure's own tests.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC
+Currently it tries to put the C compiler in ANSI C mode by default.
+We should change this spec so that AC_PROG_CC tries to change the
+compiler to be the "nicest" mode, i.e. support for the latest standard
+features (currently ISO C99) plus support for all vendor extensions,
+even if they are slightly incompatible with C99.  The basic idea here
+is that AC_PROG_CC should disable pedanticisms and should enable
+extensions.
+
+Have a way to specify different default flags to try; see this thread
+for more information:
+<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2008-08/msg00009.html>.
+
+
+* Later
+
+** config.site
+This guy is really a problem.  It's contents should be read before
+handling the options, so that the latter properly override the latter,
+but most people would want a means to have a config.site that depends
+on $prefix for instance.
+
+Some other would like config.site to be looked for in the current
+directory.
+
+Harlan:
+
+   I'll go further.
+
+   I'd like to see several layers of config.site available.
+
+   I'm starting to use "modules" at more places to handle software
+   installation, and it would be helpful to set general things like:
+
+	prefix=/opt/pkg/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@
+
+   once at a global level, and then, for example, have things like:
+
+	--with-etcdir=$prefix/etc
+
+   stuffed "above" the various versions of SSH so I wouldn't have to hunt for
+   these things every time it was time to recompile a new version of a
+   previously installed package.
+
+   Something like:
+
+     src/config.site		Global stuff
+     ...
+     src/ssh/config.site		package-specific stuff
+     src/ssh/ssh-1.2.27/		the actual source code
+
+   I'd like to see automake/autoconf better support packaging tools (like
+   modules, the *BSD ports/ stuff, and others would like hooks for RPMs).
+
+
+** Languages
+Integrate other Fortrans etc.
+
+** AC_CHECK_FUNCS and AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC
+I have still not understood what's the difference  between the two
+which requires to have two different sources: AC_LANG_CALL and
+AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY (which names seem to be inappropriate).
+Wouldn't one be enough?
+
+** Libtool
+Define once for all the hooks they need, any redefinition of
+AC_PROG_CC etc. is way too dangerous and too limiting.  The GCC team
+certainly has requirements too.
+
+** AC_SEARCH_LIBS
+From: Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
+Subject: AC_SEARCH_LIBS
+
+I think AC_SEARCH_LIBS has an unfortunate interface.
+
+ACTION-IF-FOUND is run in addition to the default action.  Most
+autoconf macros don't work this way.  This is confusing.
+
+In my case I can't use this macro because it always appends to LIBS.
+I don't want that.  Instead I want to use ACTION-IF-FOUND to set my
+own macro.
+
+Also there is no documentation on the format of library names expected
+by the macro.  Even a reference to some other function (e.g., "the
+library name can have the same forms as with AC_HAVE_LIBRARY" (if that
+is true, which I haven't looked up) would be fine.
+
+** Revamp the language support
+We should probably have a language for C89, and C99.  We must give the
+means to the users to specify some needs over the compilers, and
+actually look for a good compiler, instead of stopping at the first
+compiler we find.
+
+In fact, the AC_CHECK_PROG macro and variations have proved their
+limitation: we really need something more powerful and simpler too.
+
+We must take into account the specific problems of the GCC team.  We
+must extend AC_CHECK_FUNCS in order to use the headers instead of fake
+declarations as we currently do.  Default headers could be triggered
+on when C99, but not with the other languages?
+
+At the end, we should have a simple macro, such as AC_LANG_COMPILER
+for instance, which is built over simpler macros.  Each language
+support should come with these simpler macros, but each language
+should follow the same process.
+
+We also need to check the srcext which are supported by the compiler.
+In fact, this macro is also probably the right place to check for
+objext and exeext.
+
+** AC_PROG_CC_STDC
+Should be: AC_PROG_CC_ISO?  Or even more specific for the ISO version?
+Should include more tests (e.g., AC_C_CONST etc.)?  See Peter for very
+useful comments on the technology.  Should we make this a new
+language?  AC_LANG(ISO C).  It would be great to introduce
+AC_LANG_COMPILER in this release too.
+
+** autoupdate
+We should probably install the files which do not depend upon the
+user, just the Autoconf library files.  But conversely autoupdate must
+be opened to user macros, i.e., for instance libtool itself must be
+able to say that AM_PROG_LIBTOOL is now AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, and have
+autoupdate do its job on old configure.ac.
+
+* Even later
+
+** Pentateuch
+Heck, there is nothing after `Deuteronomy'!  We're stuck, but we
+_must_ update the `history' section.  Can't go to `New testament', we
+might hurt feelings?  In addition, it means that the Messiah has come,
+which might be slightly presumptuous :).  Still, someone fluent in
+English should write it.
+
+** AC_PATH_X
+Hi Robert,
+
+> Hi, autoconf people.  While packaging plotutils-2.2 (just released),
+> I noticed what looks like a small error in the autoconf-2.13 texinfo
+> documentation, the entry for AC_PATH_XTRA, in particular.
+
+> The documentation says that AC_PATH_XTRA
+>	... adds the C compiler flags that X needs to output variable
+>	`X_CFLAGS', and the X linker flags to `X_LIBS'.  If X is not
+>	available, adds `-DX_DISPLAY_MISSING' to `X_CFLAGS'.
+
+> It doesn't seem to add -DX_DISPLAY_MISSING to X_CFLAGS.  X_DISPLAY_MISSING
+> ends up defined in config.h, instead.
+
+That's only because you're no doubt using AC_CONFIG_HEADER(..) to send
+your defines to a config.h-style file.  If you were to not use
+AC_CONFIG_HEADER and X was not available, then you would see
+-DX_DISPLAY_MISSING being added to @DEFS@ as your output files were being
+generated.
+
+But you are right--the documentation is not clear about this.  I'll change
+it.
+
+> In fact it looks to me as if right now, X_CFLAGS is used only for
+> specifying directories where X include files are stored, via the `-I' option.
+> Maybe it should really be called X_CPPFLAGS?
+
+Well, perhaps.  If you feel strongly about this, feel free to submit a
+change-request.  There is a hyperlink to the bug tracking database from
+http://sourceware.cygnus.com/autoconf/.  With the way it reads in the
+manual right now, it's designed to allow the user to set additional flags
+in the environment prior to running configure--and these don't need to be
+limited to just -I flags.  Nevertheless, I can see a few clean ways to
+improve this.
+
+** AC_SYS_INTERPRETER
+Defines $interpval.  This is not a standard name.  Do we want to keep
+this?  Clarify our policy on those names.
+
+** Allow --recursive to config.status
+So that --recheck does not pass --no-recursive to configure.
+
+* autoconf.texi
+Move the specific macro documentation blocks into the source files,
+and use a doc-block extraction/merge technique to get documentation
+into texi-file.  This should help avoid bit-rot in the doc, and make
+the doc easier to update when people add/change macros.  The name
+"autodoc" is probably already taken so we probably need another one.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* m4
+
+** I18n
+The error messages for indir and dumpdef are uselessly different.  Fix
+this for translators.
+
+** Tracing `builtin'
+F**k!  --trace FOO does not catch indir([FOO], $@)!
+Fixed in M4 1.6, but we can't rely on it yet.
+
+** m4 loops
+As of 2.63, m4_for has a fixed iteration count for speed in the common
+usage case.  But it used to allow the user to alter iteration count by
+reassigning the iterator, allowing a break-like functionality (or even
+infloops).  Does this need a new (but maybe slower) macro?  Should we
+also provide something like m4_while([TEST], [EXPR])?  Maybe an
+m4_break() that works inside a looping construct?
+http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2008-08/msg00121.html
+
+* Autoconf 3
+
+** Cache name spaces.
+Cf the discussion with Kaveh.  One would like to
+AC_CHECK_FUNCS(bar)
+# Do something that changes the environment
+AC_CACHE_PUSH(foo)
+AC_CHECK_FUNCS(bar)
+AC_CACHE_POP
+in order not to erase the results of a check with another.
+
+** Cache var names
+should depend upon the current language.
+
+** Use m4 lists?
+I think one sad decision in Autoconf was to use white space separated
+lists for some arguments.  For instance AC_CHECK_FUNCS(foo bar).  I
+tend to think that, even if it is not as nice, we should use m4 lists,
+i.e., AC_CHECK_FUNCS([foo, bar]) in this case.  This would ease
+specializing loops, and more importantly, make them much more robust.
+
+A typical example of things that can be performed if we use m4 lists
+instead of white space separated lists is the case of things that have
+a space in their names, eg, structures.
+
+With the current scheme it would be extremely difficult to loop over
+AC_CHECK_STRUCTS(struct foo struct bar), while it natural and well
+defined for m4 lists: AC_CHECK_STRUCTS([struct foo, struct bar]).
+
+I know that makes a huge difference in syntax, but a major release
+should be ready to settle a new world.  We *can* provide helping tools
+for the transition.  Considering the benefits, I really think it is
+worth thinking. --akim
+
+** Forbid shell variables as main arguments
+The fact that we have to support shell variables as main argument
+forbids many interesting constructions (specialization are not always
+possible, equally for AC_REQUIRE'ing macros *with their arguments*).
+Any loop should be handled by m4 itself, and nothing should be hidden
+to it.  As a consequence, shell variables on the main arguments become
+useless (the main reason we support shell variables is to allow the
+loop versions of single argument macros, eg, to go from AC_CHECK_FUNC
+to AC_CHECK_FUNCS). --akim
+
+** Use the @SUBST@ technology also for headers instead of #undef.
+This requires that acconfig.h becomes completely obsolete: autoheader
+should generate all the templates.
+
+** Specializing loops.
+For instance, make AC_CHECK_FUNC[S] automatically use any particular
+macros for the listed functions.
+This requires to obsolete the feature `break' in ACTION-IF, since all
+the loops are to be handled by m4, not sh.
+
+** Faces of a test
+Each macro can potentially come with several faces: of course the
+configure snippet (AC_foo), a config.h snippet (AH_foo), a system.h
+snippet (AS_foo), documentation (AD_foo) and, why not, the some C code
+for instance to replace a function.
+
+The motivation for the `faces' is to encapsulate.  It is abnormal that
+once one has a configure macro, then she has to read somewhere to find
+the piece of system.h to use etc.  The macros should come in a
+self-contained way, or, said it another way, PnP.
+
+A major issue is that of specialization.  AC_CHECK_HEADER (or another
+name) for instance, will have as an effect, via system.h to include
+the header.  But if the test for the header is specific, the generic
+AS_CHECK_HEADER will still be used.  Conversely, some headers may not
+require a specific AC_ tests, but a specialized AS_ macro.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Make AC_CHECK_LIB check whether the function is already available
+  before checking for the library.  This might involve adding another
+  kind of cache variable to indicate whether a given function needs a
+  given library.  The current ac_cv_func_ variables are intended to
+  indicate whether the function is in the default libraries, but
+  actually also take into account whatever value LIBS had when they
+  were checked for.
+
+  Isn't this the issue of AC_SEARCH_LIB? --akim
+  How come the list of libraries to browse not an additional parameter
+  of AC_CHECK_FUNC, exactly like for the headers? --akim
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Select the right CONFIG_SHELL automatically (for Ultrix, Lynx especially.)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Doc: Centralize information on POSIX, MS-DOS, cross-compiling, and
+  other important topics.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Mike Haertel's suggestions:
+
+** Cross compiling:
+
+*** Error messages include instructions for overriding defaults using
+config.site.
+
+*** Distribute a config.site corresponding to a hypothetical bare POSIX system with c89.
+
+** Site defaults:
+
+*** Convention for consistency checking of env vars and options in config.site so config.site can print obnoxious messages if it doesn't like options or env vars that users use.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Look at user contributed macros:
+	IEEE double precision math
+	more
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Provide a way to create a config.h *and* set the DEFS variable from within
+the same configure script.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In config.status comment, put the host/target/build types, if used.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+It would be nice if I could (in the Makefile.in files) set the
+relative name of config.h. You have config.h ../config.h
+../../config.h's all over the place, in the findutils-4.1 directory.
+From: "Randall S. Winchester" <rsw@eng.umd.edu>

+
+	ls -lt configure configure.in | sort
+doesn't work right if configure.in is from a symlink farm, where the
+symlink has either a timestamp of its own, or under BSD 4.4, it has
+the timestamp of the current directory, neither of which
+helps. Changing it to
+	ls -Llt configure configure.in | sort
+works for me, though I don't know how portable that is

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Here is the thing I would like the most;
+AC_PKG_WITH(PACKAGE, HELP_STRING, PACKAGE-ROOT, PACKAGE-LIBS, PACKAGE-DEFS,
+	PACKAGE-CCPFLAGS)
+like
+
+AC_PKG_WITH(kerberos,,/usr/local/athena,-lkrb -ldes,[KERBEROS KRB4
+CRYPT],include)
+AC_PKG_WITH(hesiod,
+[if hesiod is not in kerberos-root add --with-hesiod-root=somewhere]
+,,-lhesiod,HESIOD,,)
+AC_PKG_WITH(glue,,,-lglue,GLUE,,)
+AC_PKG_WITH(bind,,/usr/local/bind, [lib/resolv.a lib/lib44bsd.a], ,include)
+After the appropriate checks, the existence of the files, and libs and such
+LIBS=$LIBS $PKG-LIBS
+DEFS=$DEFS $PKG-DEFS
+CPPFLAGS=$PKG-CPPFLAGS $CPPFLAGS
+$PKG-ROOT=$PKG-ROOT
+The cppflags should reverse the order so that you can have;
+-I/usr/local/bind/include -I/usr/local/athena/include
+and
+-L/usr/local/athena/lib -lkrb -ldes /usr/local/bind/lib/libresolv.a
+as order matters.
+
+also an AC_PKG_CHK_HEADER
+and an AC_PKG_CHK_FUNCTION
+so one can give alternate names to check for stuff ($PKG-ROOT/lib for
+example)
+From: Randall Winchester
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+AC_C_CROSS assumes that configure was called like 'CC=target-gcc;
+./configure'. I want to write a package that has target dependent
+libraries and host dependent tools. So I don't like to lose the
+distinction between CC and [G]CC_FOR_TARGET.  AC_C_CROSS should check
+for equality of target and host.
+
+It would be great if
+
+GCC_FOR_TARGET
+AR_FOR_TARGET
+RANLIB_FOR_TARGET
+
+would be set automatically if host != target.
+AC_LANG_CROSS_C would be nice too, to check header files
+etc. with GCC_FOR_TARGET instead of CC
+
+Here is one simple test
+
+if test "x$host" != "x$target"; then
+AC_CHECK_PROGS(AR_FOR_TARGET,
+	       [$target-ar, $prefix/$target/bin/ar], $target-ar)
+AC_CHECK_PROGS(RANLIB_FOR_TARGET, $target-ranlib, $target-ranlib)
+	       [$target-ranlib, $prefix/$target/bin/ranlib], $target-ranlib)
+AC_CHECK_PROGS(GCC_FOR_TARGET, $target-gcc, $target-gcc)
+	       [$target-gcc, $prefix/$target/bin/gcc], $target-gcc)
+fi
+
+From: nennker@cs.tu-berlin.DE (Axel Nennker)
+
+(also look in the autoconf mailing list archives for the proposed
+CHECK_TARGET_TOOL macro from Natanael Nerode, a gcc configury guru).

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The problem occurs with the following libc functions in SunOS 5.4:
+
+	fnmatch glob globfree regcomp regexec regerror regfree wordexp wordfree
+
+It also occurs with a bunch more libposix4 functions that most people
+probably aren't worried about yet, e.g. shm_open.
+
+All these functions fail with errno set to ENOSYS (89)
+``Operation not applicable''.
+
+Perhaps Autoconf should have a specific macro for fnmatch, another for
+glob+globfree, another for regcomp+regexec+regerror+regfree, and
+another for wordexp+wordfree.  This wouldn't solve the problem in
+general, but it should work for Solaris 2.4.  Or Autoconf could limit
+itself to fnmatch and regcomp, the only two functions that I know have
+been a problem so far.

+Make easy macros for checking for X functions and libraries, such as Motif.

+
+There are basically three ways to lock files
+        lockf, fnctl, flock

+Support different default file system layouts, e.g. SVR4, Linux.
+Of course, this can be done locally with config.site.

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+I wonder if it is possible to get the name of X11's app-defaults
+directory by autoconf. Moreover, I'd like to have a general way of
+accessing imake variables by autoconf, something like
+
+AC_DEFINE(WINE_APP_DEFAULTS, AC_IMAKE_VAR(XAPPLOADDIR))
+
+Slaven Rezic <eserte@cabulja.herceg.de>
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Every user running X11 usually has a directory like *X11* in his PATH
+variable. By replacing bin by include, you can find good places to
+look for the include files or libraries.

+From: rcb5@win.tue.nl (Richard Verhoeven)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In most cases, when autoscan suggests something, using the search or
+index command into the Info reader for autoconf manual quickly
+explains me what the test is about.  However, for header files and
+functions, the search might fail, because the test is not of the
+specific kind.  The Autoconf manual should reflect somewhere all
+header files or functions (non-specific features, generally)
+triggering autoscan to generate tests, and tell in a few words what is
+the problem, and the suggested approach for a solution; that is, how
+one should use the result of testing the feature.

+It would be nice if the configure script would handle an option such as
+--x-libraries="/usr/openwin/lib /usr/dt/lib".
+
+Rick Boykin <rboykin@cscsun3.larc.nasa.gov>
+
+Under Solaris 2.4, the regular X includes and libs and the Motif
+includes and libs are in different places.  The Emacs configure script
+actually allows dir1:dir2:dir3 --
+
+    if test "${x_libraries}" != NONE && test -n "${x_libraries}"; then
+      LD_SWITCH_X_SITE=-L`echo ${x_libraries} | sed -e "s/:/ -L/g"`
+      LD_SWITCH_X_SITE_AUX=-R`echo ${x_libraries} | sed -e "s/:/ -R/g"`
+    fi
+    if test "${x_includes}" != NONE && test -n "${x_includes}"; then

+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+    What messages should be produced by default, if any?
+
+Probably only the few most important ones, like which configuration
+name was used, whether X or Xt are in use, etc. The specific
+decisions, and progress messages, should be recorded on the terminal
+only if --verbose is used.
+
+    --silent just suppresses the "checking for...result"
+    messages, not the "creating FOO" messages.
+
+I think the default should be to suppress both.
+From: Richard Stallman <rms@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+There is no distinction now between

+Another thing I wish for is a macro which figures out which libraries are

+adding AC_CANONICAL_HOST to my configure.in script caused
+all sorts of odd/unexplained errors.  Obviously, I had to go
+get copies of config.guess, config.sub and install-sh from the
+autoconf distribution, but the error messages and autoconf docs
+didn't explain that very well.

+
+Perhaps also have AC_TRY_COMPILER try to link an invalid program, and
+die if the compiler seemed to succeed--in which case it's not usable
+with autoconf scripts.

+# For projects using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([foo]), Autoconf sets
+# $ac_aux_dir to `$srcdir/foo'.  In other projects, it is set to
+# `$srcdir', `$srcdir/..', or `$srcdir/../..'.
+#
+# Of course, Automake must honor this variable whenever it calls a
+# tool from the auxiliary directory.  The problem is that $srcdir (and
+# therefore $ac_aux_dir as well) can be either absolute or relative,
+# depending on how configure is run.  This is pretty annoying, since
+# it makes $ac_aux_dir quite unusable in subdirectories: in the top
+# source directory, any form will work fine, but in subdirectories a
+# relative path needs to be adjusted first.
+#
+# $ac_aux_dir/missing
+#    fails when called from a subdirectory if $ac_aux_dir is relative
+# $top_srcdir/$ac_aux_dir/missing
+#    fails if $ac_aux_dir is absolute,
+#    fails when called from a subdirectory in a VPATH build with
+#          a relative $ac_aux_dir
+#
+# The reason of the latter failure is that $top_srcdir and $ac_aux_dir
+# are both prefixed by $srcdir.  In an in-source build this is usually
+# harmless because $srcdir is `.', but things will broke when you
+# start a VPATH build or use an absolute $srcdir.
+#
+# So we could use something similar to $top_srcdir/$ac_aux_dir/missing,
+# iff we strip the leading $srcdir from $ac_aux_dir.  That would be:
+#   am_aux_dir='\$(top_srcdir)/'`expr "$ac_aux_dir" : "$srcdir//*\(.*\)"`
+# and then we would define $MISSING as
+#   MISSING="\${SHELL} $am_aux_dir/missing"
+# This will work as long as MISSING is not called from configure, because
+# unfortunately $(top_srcdir) has no meaning in configure.
+# However there are other variables, like CC, which are often used in
+# configure, and could therefore not use this "fixed" $ac_aux_dir.
+#
+# Another solution, used here, is to always expand $ac_aux_dir to an
+# absolute PATH.  The drawback is that using absolute paths prevent a

+# One issue with vendor `install' (even GNU) is that you can't

+# annoying in cross-compiling environments, where the build's strip
+# is unlikely to handle the host's binaries.
+# Fortunately install-sh will honor a STRIPPROG variable, so we
+# always use install-sh in `make install-strip', and initialize
+# STRIPPROG with the value of the STRIP variable (set by the user).

+Usage: $0 [OPTION]... [TEMPLATE-FILE]
+
+Generate a configuration script from a TEMPLATE-FILE if given, or
+\`configure.ac' if present, or else \`configure.in'.  Output is sent
+to the standard output if TEMPLATE-FILE is given, else into
+\`configure'.
+
+Operation modes:
+  -h, --help                print this help, then exit
+  -V, --version             print version number, then exit
+  -v, --verbose             verbosely report processing
+  -d, --debug               don't remove temporary files
+  -f, --force               consider all files obsolete
+  -o, --output=FILE         save output in FILE (stdout is the default)
+  -W, --warnings=CATEGORY   report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax]
+
+Warning categories include:
+  \`cross'         cross compilation issues
+  \`obsolete'      obsolete constructs
+  \`syntax'        dubious syntactic constructs
+  \`all'           all the warnings
+  \`no-CATEGORY'   turn off the warnings on CATEGORY
+  \`none'          turn off all the warnings
+  \`error'         warnings are error
+
+The environment variables \`M4' and \`WARNINGS' are honored.
+
+Library directories:
+  -B, --prepend-include=DIR  prepend directory DIR to search path
+  -I, --include=DIR          append directory DIR to search path
+
+Tracing:
+  -t, --trace=MACRO[:FORMAT]  report the list of calls to MACRO
+  -i, --initialization        also trace Autoconf's initialization process
+
+In tracing mode, no configuration script is created.  FORMAT defaults
+to \`\$f:\$l:\$n:\$%'; see \`autom4te --help' for information about FORMAT.

+#		  ## How `autoupdate' functions.  ##
+#		  ## ---------------------------- ##
+#
+# The task of `autoupdate' is not trivial: the biggest difficulty being
+# that you must limit the changes to the parts that really need to be
+# updated.  Finding a satisfying implementation proved to be quite hard,
+# as this is the fifth implementation of `autoupdate'.
+#
+# Below, we will use a simple example of an obsolete macro:
+#
+#     AU_DEFUN([OLD], [NEW([$1, $2], m4_eval([$1 + $2]))])
+#     AC_DEFUN([NEW], [echo "sum($1) = $2"])
+#
+# the input file contains
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+# Of course the expected output is
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     NEW([1, 2], [3])
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+#
+# # First implementation: sed
+# # =========================
+#
+# The first implementation was only able to change the name of obsolete
+# macros.
+#
+# The file `acoldnames.m4' defined the old names based on the new names.
+# It was simple then to produce a sed script such as:
+#
+#     s/OLD/NEW/g
+#
+# Updating merely consisted in running this script on the file to
+# update.
+#
+# This scheme suffers from an obvious limitation: that `autoupdate' was
+# unable to cope with new macros that just swap some of its arguments
+# compared to the old macro.  Fortunately, that was enough to upgrade
+# from Autoconf 1 to Autoconf 2.  (But I have no idea whether the
+# changes in Autoconf 2 were precisely limited by this constraint.)
+#
+#
+# # Second implementation: hooks
+# # ============================
+#
+# The version 2.15 of Autoconf brought a vast number of changes compared
+# to 2.13, so a solution was needed.  One could think of extending the
+# `sed' scripts with specialized code for complex macros.  However, this
+# approach is of course full of flaws:
+#
+# a. the Autoconf maintainers have to write these snippets, which we
+#    just don't want to,
+#
+# b. I really don't think you'll ever manage to handle the quoting of
+#    m4 with a sed script.
+#
+# To satisfy a., let's remark that the code which implements the old
+# features in term of the new feature is exactly the code which should
+# replace the old code.
+#
+# To answer point b, as usual in the history of Autoconf, the answer, at
+# least on the paper, is simple: m4 is the best tool to parse m4, so
+# let's use m4.
+#
+# Therefore the specification is:
+#
+#     I want to be able to tell Autoconf, well, m4, that the macro I
+#     am currently defining is an obsolete macro (so that the user is
+#     warned), and its code is the code to use when running autoconf,
+#     but that the very same code has to be used when running
+#     autoupdate.  To summarize, the interface I want is
+#     `AU_DEFUN(OLD-NAME, NEW-CODE)'.
+#
+#
+# Now for the technical details.
+#
+# When running autoconf, except for the warning, AU_DEFUN is basically
+# AC_DEFUN.
+#
+# When running autoupdate, we want *only* OLD-NAMEs to be expanded.
+# This obviously means that acgeneral.m4 and acspecific.m4 must not be
+# loaded.  Nonetheless, because we want to use a rich set of m4
+# features, m4sugar.m4 is needed.  Please note that the fact that
+# Autoconf's macros are not loaded is positive on two points:
+#
+# - we do get an updated `configure.ac', not a `configure'!
+#
+# - the old macros are replaced by *calls* to the new-macros, not the
+#   body of the new macros, since their body is not defined!!!
+#   (Whoa, that's really beautiful!).
+#
+# Additionally we need to disable the quotes when reading the input for
+# two reasons: first because otherwise `m4' will swallow the quotes of
+# other macros:
+#
+#     NEW([1, 2], 3)
+#     => NEW(1, 2, 3)
+#
+# and second, because we want to update the macro calls which are
+# quoted, i.e., we want
+#
+#     FOO([OLD(1, 2)])
+#     => FOO([NEW([1, 2], [3])])
+#
+# If we don't disable the quotes, only the macros called at the top
+# level would be updated.
+#
+# So, let's disable the quotes.
+#
+# Well, not quite: m4sugar.m4 still needs to use quotes for some macros.
+# Well, in this case, when running in autoupdate code, each macro first
+# reestablishes the quotes, expands itself, and disables the quotes.
+#
+# Thinking a bit more, you realize that in fact, people may use `define',
+# `ifelse' etc. in their files, and you certainly don't want to process
+# them.  Another example is `dnl': you don't want to remove the
+# comments.  You then realize you don't want exactly to import m4sugar:
+# you want to specify when it is enabled (macros active), and disabled.
+# m4sugar provides m4_disable/m4_enable to this end.
+#
+# You're getting close to it.  Now remains one task: how to handle
+# twofold definitions?
+#
+# Remember that the same AU_DEFUN must be understood in two different
+# ways, the AC way, and the AU way.
+#
+# One first solution is to check whether acgeneral.m4 was loaded.  But
+# that's definitely not cute.  Another is simply to install `hooks',
+# that is to say, to keep in some place m4 knows, late `define' to be
+# triggered *only* in AU mode.
+#
+# You first think of designing AU_DEFUN like this:
+#
+# 1. AC_DEFUN(OLD-NAME,
+#	      [Warn the user OLD-NAME is obsolete.
+#	       NEW-CODE])
+#
+# 2. Store for late AU binding([define(OLD_NAME,
+#				[Reestablish the quotes.
+#				 NEW-CODE
+#				 Disable the quotes.])])
+#
+# but this will not work: NEW-CODE probably uses $1, $2 etc. and these
+# guys will be replaced with the argument of `Store for late AU binding'
+# when you call it.
+#
+# I don't think there is a means to avoid this using this technology
+# (remember that $1 etc. are *always* expanded in m4).  You may also try
+# to replace them with $[1] to preserve them for a later evaluation, but
+# if `Store for late AU binding' is properly written, it will remain
+# quoted till the end...
+#
+# You have to change technology.  Since the problem is that `$1'
+# etc. should be `consumed' right away, one solution is to define now a
+# second macro, `AU_OLD-NAME', and to install a hook than binds OLD-NAME
+# to AU_OLD-NAME.  Then, autoupdate.m4 just need to run the hooks.  By
+# the way, the same method was used in autoheader.
+#
+#
+# # Third implementation: m4 namespaces by m4sugar
+# # ==============================================
+#
+# Actually, this implementation was just a clean up of the previous
+# implementation: instead of defining hooks by hand, m4sugar was equipped
+# with `namespaces'.  What are they?
+#
+# Sometimes we want to disable some *set* of macros, and restore them
+# later.  We provide support for this via namespaces.
+#
+# There are basically three characters playing this scene: defining a
+# macro in a namespace, disabling a namespace, and restoring a namespace
+# (i.e., all the definitions it holds).
+#
+# Technically, to define a MACRO in NAMESPACE means to define the macro
+# named `NAMESPACE::MACRO' to the VALUE.  At the same time, we append
+# `undefine(NAME)' in the macro named `m4_disable(NAMESPACE)', and
+# similarly a binding of NAME to the value of `NAMESPACE::MACRO' in
+# `m4_enable(NAMESPACE)'.  These mechanisms allow to bind the macro of
+# NAMESPACE and to unbind them at will.
+#
+# Of course this implementation is really inefficient: m4 has to grow
+# strings which can become quickly huge, which slows it significantly.
+#
+# In particular one should avoid as much as possible to use `define' for
+# temporaries.  Now that `define' has quite a complex meaning, it is an
+# expensive operations that should be limited to macros.  Use
+# `m4_define' for temporaries.
+#
+# Private copies of the macros we used in entering / exiting the m4sugar
+# namespace.  It is much more convenient than fighting with the renamed
+# version of define etc.
+#
+#
+#
+# Those two implementations suffered from serious problems:
+#
+# - namespaces were really expensive, and incurred a major performance
+#   loss on `autoconf' itself, not only `autoupdate'.  One solution
+#   would have been the limit the use of namespaces to `autoupdate', but
+#   that's again some complications on m4sugar, which really doesn't need
+#   this.  So we wanted to get rid of the namespaces.
+#
+# - since the quotes were disabled, autoupdate was sometimes making
+#   wrong guesses, for instance on:
+#
+#     foo([1, 2])
+#
+#   m4 saw 2 arguments: `[1'and `2]'.  A simple solution, somewhat
+#   fragile, is to reestablish the quotes right before all the obsolete
+#   macros, i.e., to use sed so that the previous text becomes
+#
+#     changequote([, ])foo([1, 2])
+#
+#   To this end, one wants to trace the definition of obsolete macros.
+#
+# It was there that the limitations of the namespace approach became
+# painful: because it was a complex machinery playing a lot with the
+# builtins of m4 (hence, quite fragile), tracing was almost impossible.
+#
+#
+# So this approach was dropped.
+#
+#
+# # The fourth implementation: two steps
+# # ====================================
+#
+# If you drop the uses of namespaces, you no longer can compute the
+# updated value, and replace the old call with it simultaneously.
+#
+# Obviously you will use m4 to compute the updated values, but you may
+# use some other tool to achieve the replacement.  Personally, I trust
+# nobody but m4 to parse m4, so below, m4 will perform the two tasks.
+#
+# How can m4 be used to replace *some* macros calls with newer values.
+# Well, that's dead simple: m4 should learn the definitions of obsolete
+# macros, forget its builtins, disable the quotes, and then run on the
+# input file, which amounts to doing this:
+#
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     define([OLD], [NEW([$1, $2], m4_eval([$1 + $2]))changequote()])
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([m4_eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# which will result in
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     NEW(1, 2, m4_eval(1 + 2))
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# Grpmh.  Two problems.  A minor problem: it would have been much better
+# to have the `m4_eval' computed, and a major problem: you lost the
+# quotation in the result.
+#
+# Let's address the big problem first.  One solution is to define any
+# modern macro to rewrite its calls with the proper quotation, thanks to
+# `$@'.  Again, tracing the `define's makes it possible to know which
+# are these macros, so you input is:
+#
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     define([OLD], [NEW([$1, $2], m4_eval([$1 + $2]))changequote()])
+#     define([NEW], [[NEW($@)]changequote()])
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([m4_eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     changequote([, ])NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# which results in
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     NEW([1, 2],[m4_eval(1 + 2)])
+#     NEW([0, 0],[0])
+#
+# Our problem is solved, i.e., the first call to `NEW' is properly
+# quoted, but introduced another problem: we changed the layout of the
+# second calls, which can be a drama in the case of huge macro calls
+# (think of `AC_TRY_RUN' for instance).  This example didn't show it,
+# but we also introduced parens to macros which did not have some:
+#
+#     AC_INIT
+#     => AC_INIT()
+#
+# No big deal for the semantics (unless the macro depends upon $#, which
+# is bad), but the users would not be happy.
+#
+# Additionally, we introduced quotes that were not there before, which is
+# OK in most cases, but could change the semantics of the file.
+#
+# Cruel dilemma: we do want the auto-quoting definition of `NEW' when
+# evaluating `OLD', but we don't when we evaluate the second `NEW'.
+# Back to namespaces?
+#
+# No.
+#
+#
+# # Second step: replacement
+# # ------------------------
+#
+# No, as announced above, we will work in two steps: in a first step we
+# compute the updated values, and in a second step we replace them.  Our
+# goal is something like this:
+#
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     define([OLD], [NEW([1, 2], [3])changequote()])
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([m4_eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# i.e., the new value of `OLD' is precomputed using the auto-quoting
+# definition of `NEW' and the m4 builtins.  We'll see how afterwards,
+# let's finish with the replacement.
+#
+# Of course the solution above is wrong: if there were other calls to
+# `OLD' with different values, we would smash them to the same value.
+# But it is quite easy to generalize the scheme above:
+#
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     define([OLD([1],[2])], [NEW([1, 2], [3])])
+#     define([OLD], [defn([OLD($@)])changequote()])
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([m4_eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# i.e., for each call to obsolete macros, we build an array `call =>
+# value', and use a macro to dispatch these values.  This results in:
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     NEW([1, 2], [3])
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# In French, we say `Youpi !', which you might roughly translate as
+# `Yippee!'.
+#
+#
+# # First step: computation
+# # -----------------------
+#
+# Let's study the anatomy of the file, and name its sections:
+#
+# prologue
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+# values
+#     define([OLD([1],[2])], [NEW([1, 2], [3])])
+# dispatcher
+#     define([OLD], [defn([OLD($@)])changequote()])
+# disabler
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([m4_eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+# input
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+#
+# # Computing the `values' section
+# # ..............................
+#
+# First we need to get the list of all the AU macro uses.  To this end,
+# first get the list of all the AU macros names by tracing `AU_DEFUN' in
+# the initialization of autoconf.  This list is computed in the file
+# `au.txt' below.
+#
+# Then use this list to trace all the AU macro uses in the input.  The
+# goal is obtain in the case of our example:
+#
+#     [define([OLD([1],[2])],]@<<@OLD([1],[2])@>>@[)]
+#
+# This is the file `values.in' below.
+#
+# We want to evaluate this with only the builtins (in fact m4sugar), the
+# auto-quoting definitions of the new macros (`new.m4'), and the
+# definition of the old macros (`old.m4').  Computing these last two
+# files is easy: it's just a matter of using the right `--trace' option.
+#
+# So the content of `values.in' is:
+#
+#     include($autoconf_dir/m4sugar.m4)
+#     m4_include(new.m4)
+#     m4_include(old.m4)
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     [define([OLD([1],[2])],]@<<@OLD([1],[2])@>>@[)]
+#
+# We run m4 on it, which yields:
+#
+#     define([OLD([1],[2])],@<<@NEW([1, 2], [3])@>>@)
+#
+# Transform `@<<@' and `@>>@' into quotes and we get
+#
+#     define([OLD([1],[2])],[NEW([1, 2], [3])])
+#
+# This is `values.m4'.
+#
+#
+# # Computing the `dispatcher' section
+# # ..................................
+#
+# The `prologue', and the `disabler' are simple and need no commenting.
+#
+# To compute the `dispatcher' (`dispatch.m4'), again, it is a simple
+# matter of using the right `--trace'.
+#
+# Finally, the input is not exactly the input file, rather it is the
+# input file with the added `changequote'.  To this end, we build
+# `quote.sed'.
+#
+#
+# # Putting it all together
+# # .......................
+#
+# We build the file `input.m4' which contains:
+#
+#     divert(-1)dnl
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     include(values.m4)
+#     include(dispatch.m4)
+#     undefine([dnl])
+#     undefine([eval])
+#     # Some more undefines...
+#     changequote()
+#     divert(0)dnl
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0],
+#	  0)
+#
+# And we just run m4 on it.  Et voila`, Monsieur !  Mais oui, mais oui.
+#
+# Well, there are a few additional technicalities.  For instance, we
+# rely on `changequote', `ifelse' and `defn', but we don't want to
+# interpret the changequotes of the user, so we simply use another name:
+# `_au_changequote' etc.
+#
+#
+# # Failure of the fourth approach
+# # ------------------------------
+#
+# This approach is heavily based on traces, but then there is an obvious
+# problem: non expanded code will never be seen.  In particular, the body
+# of a `define' definition is not seen, so on the input
+#
+#	  define([idem], [OLD(0, [$1])])
+#
+# autoupdate would never see the `OLD', and wouldn't have updated it.
+# Worse yet, if `idem(0)' was used later, then autoupdate sees that
+# `OLD' is used, computes the result for `OLD(0, 0)' and sets up a
+# dispatcher for `OLD'.  Since there was no computed value for `OLD(0,
+# [$1])', the dispatcher would have replaced with... nothing, leading
+# to
+#
+#	  define([idem], [])
+#
+# With some more thinking, you see that the two step approach is wrong,
+# the namespace approach was much saner.
+#
+# But you learned a lot, in particular you realized that using traces
+# can make it possible to simulate namespaces!
+#
+#
+#
+# # The fifth implementation: m4 namespaces by files
+# # ================================================
+#
+# The fourth implementation demonstrated something unsurprising: you
+# cannot precompute, i.e., the namespace approach was the right one.
+# Still, we no longer want them, they're too expensive.  Let's have a
+# look at the way it worked.
+#
+# When updating
+#
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+# you evaluate `input.m4':
+#
+#     divert(-1)
+#     changequote([, ])
+#     define([OLD],
+#     [m4_enable()NEW([$1, $2], m4_eval([$1 + $2]))m4_disable()])
+#     ...
+#     m4_disable()
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+# where `m4_disable' undefines the m4 and m4sugar, and disables the quotes
+# and comments:
+#
+#     define([m4_disable],
+#     [undefine([__file__])
+#     ...
+#     changecom(#)
+#     changequote()])
+#
+# `m4_enable' does the converse: reestablish quotes and comments
+# --easy--, reestablish m4sugar --easy: just load `m4sugar.m4' again-- and
+# reenable the builtins.  This later task requires that you first save
+# the builtins.  And BTW, the definition above of `m4_disable' cannot
+# work: you undefined `changequote' before using it!  So you need to use
+# your privates copies of the builtins.  Let's introduce three files for
+# this:
+#
+#  `m4save.m4'
+#    moves the m4 builtins into the `_au_' pseudo namespace,
+#  `unm4.m4'
+#    undefines the builtins,
+#  `m4.m4'
+#    restores them.
+#
+# So `input.m4' is:
+#
+#     divert(-1)
+#     changequote([, ])
+#
+#     include([m4save.m4])
+#
+#     # Import AU.
+#     define([OLD],
+#     [m4_enable()NEW([$1, $2], m4_eval([$1 + $2]))m4_disable()])
+#
+#     define([_au_enable],
+#     [_au_changecom([#])
+#     _au_include([m4.m4])
+#     _au_include(m4sugar.m4)])
+#
+#     define([_au_disable],
+#     [# Disable m4sugar.
+#     # Disable the m4 builtins.
+#     _au_include([unm4.m4])
+#     # 1. Disable special characters.
+#     _au_changequote()
+#     _au_changecom()])
+#
+#     m4_disable()
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+# Based on what we learned in the fourth implementation we know that we
+# have to enable the quotes *before* any AU macro, and we know we need
+# to build autoquoting versions of the AC macros.  But the autoquoting
+# AC definitions must be disabled in the rest of the file, and enabled
+# inside AU macros.
+#
+# Using `autoconf --trace' it is easy to build the files
+#
+#   `ac.m4'
+#     define the autoquoting AC fake macros
+#   `disable.m4'
+#     undefine the m4sugar and AC autoquoting macros.
+#   `au.m4'
+#     definitions of the AU macros (such as `OLD' above).
+#
+# Now, `input.m4' is:
+#
+#     divert(-1)
+#     changequote([, ])
+#
+#     include([m4save.m4])
+#     # Import AU.
+#     include([au.m4])
+#
+#     define([_au_enable],
+#     [_au_changecom([#])
+#     _au_include([m4.m4])
+#     _au_include(m4sugar.m4)
+#     _au_include(ac.m4)])
+#
+#     define([_au_disable],
+#     [_au_include([disable.m4])
+#     _au_include([unm4.m4])
+#     # 1. Disable special characters.
+#     _au_changequote()
+#     _au_changecom()])
+#
+#     m4_disable()
+#     dnl The Unbelievable Truth
+#     _au_changequote([, ])OLD(1, 2)
+#     NEW([0, 0], [0])
+#
+# Finally, version V is ready.
+#
+# Well... almost.
+#
+# There is a slight problem that remains: if an AU macro OUTER includes
+# an AU macro INNER, then _au_enable will be run when entering OUTER
+# and when entering INNER (not good, but not too bad yet).  But when
+# getting out of INNER, _au_disable will disable everything while we
+# were still in OUTER.  Badaboom.
+#
+# Therefore _au_enable and _au_disable have to be written to work by
+# pairs: each _au_enable pushdef's _au_enabled, and each _au_disable
+# popdef's _au_enabled.  And of course _au_enable and _au_disable are
+# effective when _au_enabled is *not* defined.
+#
+# Finally, version V' is ready.  And there is much rejoicing.  (And I
+# have free time again.  I think.  Yeah, right.)

+usage="Usage: $prog [OPTION]... PACKAGE MANUAL-TITLE
+
+Generate various output formats from PACKAGE.texinfo (or .texi or .txi) source.
+See the GNU Maintainers document for a more extensive discussion:
+  http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain_toc.html
+
+Options:
+  -s SRCFILE  read Texinfo from SRCFILE, instead of PACKAGE.{texinfo|texi|txi}
+  -o OUTDIR   write files into OUTDIR, instead of manual/.
+  --email ADR use ADR as contact in generated web pages.
+  --docbook   convert to DocBook too (xml, txt, html, pdf and ps).
+  --html ARG  pass indicated ARG to makeinfo or texi2html for HTML targets.
+  --texi2html use texi2html to generate HTML targets.
+  --help      display this help and exit successfully.
+  --version   display version information and exit successfully.
+
+Simple example: $prog --email bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org emacs \"GNU Emacs Manual\"
+
+Typical sequence:
+  cd PACKAGESOURCE/doc
+  wget \"$scripturl\"
+  wget \"$templateurl\"
+  $prog --email BUGLIST MANUAL \"GNU MANUAL - One-line description\"
+
+Output will be in a new subdirectory \"manual\" (by default, use -o OUTDIR
+to override).  Move all the new files into your web CVS tree, as
+explained in the Web Pages node of maintain.texi.
+
+Please use the --email ADDRESS option to specify your bug-reporting
+address in the generated HTML pages.
+
+MANUAL-TITLE is included as part of the HTML <title> of the overall
+manual/index.html file.  It should include the name of the package being
+documented.  manual/index.html is created by substitution from the file
+$GENDOCS_TEMPLATE_DIR/gendocs_template.  (Feel free to modify the
+generic template for your own purposes.)
+
+If you have several manuals, you'll need to run this script several
+times with different MANUAL values, specifying a different output
+directory with -o each time.  Then write (by hand) an overall index.html
+with links to them all.
+
+If a manual's Texinfo sources are spread across several directories,
+first copy or symlink all Texinfo sources into a single directory.
+(Part of the script's work is to make a tar.gz of the sources.)
+
+You can set the environment variables MAKEINFO, TEXI2DVI, TEXI2HTML, and
+DVIPS to control the programs that get executed, and
+GENDOCS_TEMPLATE_DIR to control where the gendocs_template file is
+looked for.  With --docbook, the environment variables DOCBOOK2HTML,
+DOCBOOK2PDF, DOCBOOK2PS, and DOCBOOK2TXT are also respected.
+
+By default, makeinfo and texi2dvi are run in the default (English)
+locale, since that's the language of most Texinfo manuals.  If you
+happen to have a non-English manual and non-English web site, see the
+SETLANG setting in the source.
+
+Email bug reports or enhancement requests to bug-texinfo@gnu.org.

+# This script is derived from GIT-VERSION-GEN from GIT: http://git.or.cz/.
+# It may be run two ways:
+# - from a git repository in which the "git describe" command below
+#   produces useful output (thus requiring at least one signed tag)
+# - from a non-git-repo directory containing a .tarball-version file, which
+#   presumes this script is invoked like "./git-version-gen .tarball-version".
+
+# In order to use intra-version strings in your project, you will need two
+# separate generated version string files:
+#
+# .tarball-version - present only in a distribution tarball, and not in
+#   a checked-out repository.  Created with contents that were learned at
+#   the last time autoconf was run, and used by git-version-gen.  Must not
+#   be present in either $(srcdir) or $(builddir) for git-version-gen to
+#   give accurate answers during normal development with a checked out tree,
+#   but must be present in a tarball when there is no version control system.
+#   Therefore, it cannot be used in any dependencies.  GNUmakefile has
+#   hooks to force a reconfigure at distribution time to get the value
+#   correct, without penalizing normal development with extra reconfigures.
+#
+# .version - present in a checked-out repository and in a distribution
+#   tarball.  Usable in dependencies, particularly for files that don't
+#   want to depend on config.h but do want to track version changes.
+#   Delete this file prior to any autoconf run where you want to rebuild
+#   files to pick up a version string change; and leave it stale to
+#   minimize rebuild time after unrelated changes to configure sources.
+#
+# As with any generated file in a VC'd directory, you should add
+# /.version to .gitignore, so that you don't accidentally commit it.
+# .tarball-version is never generated in a VC'd directory, so needn't
+# be listed there.
+#
+# Use the following line in your configure.ac, so that $(VERSION) will
+# automatically be up-to-date each time configure is run (and note that
+# since configure.ac no longer includes a version string, Makefile rules
+# should not depend on configure.ac for version updates).
+#
+# AC_INIT([GNU project],
+#         m4_esyscmd([build-aux/git-version-gen .tarball-version]),
+#         [bug-project@example])
+#
+# Then use the following lines in your Makefile.am, so that .version
+# will be present for dependencies, and so that .version and
+# .tarball-version will exist in distribution tarballs.
+#
+# EXTRA_DIST = $(top_srcdir)/.version

+Usage: $ME [OPTIONS] [ARGS]
+
+Convert git log output to ChangeLog format.  If present, any ARGS
+are passed to "git log".  To avoid ARGS being parsed as options to
+$ME, they may be preceded by '--'.
+
+OPTIONS:
+
+   --amend=FILE FILE maps from an SHA1 to perl code (i.e., s/old/new/) that
+                  makes a change to SHA1's commit log text or metadata.
+   --append-dot append a dot to the first line of each commit message if
+                  there is no other punctuation or blank at the end.
+   --no-cluster never cluster commit messages under the same date/author
+                  header; the default is to cluster adjacent commit messages
+                  if their headers are the same and neither commit message
+                  contains multiple paragraphs.
+   --since=DATE convert only the logs since DATE;
+                  the default is to convert all log entries.
+   --format=FMT set format string for commit subject and body;
+                  see 'man git-log' for the list of format metacharacters;
+                  the default is '%s%n%b%n'
+
+   --help       display this help and exit
+   --version    output version information and exit
+
+EXAMPLE:
+
+  $ME --since=2008-01-01 > ChangeLog
+  $ME -- -n 5 foo > last-5-commits-to-branch-foo
+
+SPECIAL SYNTAX:
+
+The following types of strings are interpreted specially when they appear
+at the beginning of a log message line.  They are not copied to the output.
+
+  Copyright-paperwork-exempt: Yes
+    Append the "(tiny change)" notation to the usual "date name email"
+    ChangeLog header to mark a change that does not require a copyright
+    assignment.
+  Co-authored-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
+    List the specified name and email address on a second
+    ChangeLog header, denoting a co-author.
+  Signed-off-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
+    These lines are simply elided.
+
+In a FILE specified via --amend, comment lines (starting with "#") are ignored.
+FILE must consist of <SHA,CODE+> pairs where SHA is a 40-byte SHA1 (alone on
+a line) referring to a commit in the current project, and CODE refers to one
+or more consecutive lines of Perl code.  Pairs must be separated by one or
+more blank line.
+
+Here is sample input for use with --amend=FILE, from coreutils:
+
+3a169f4c5d9159283548178668d2fae6fced3030
+# fix typo in title:
+s/all tile types/all file types/
+
+1379ed974f1fa39b12e2ffab18b3f7a607082202
+# Due to a bug in vc-dwim, I mis-attributed a patch by Paul to myself.
+# Change the author to be Paul.  Note the escaped "@":
+s,Jim .*>,Paul Eggert <eggert\\\@cs.ucla.edu>,
+

+Options and commands are applied in order.  If the file $conffile exists
+in the current working directory, its contents are prepended to the
+actual command line options.  Use this to keep your defaults.  Comments
+(#) and empty lines in $conffile are allowed.
+
+Examples:
+1. Upload foobar-1.0.tar.gz to ftp.gnu.org:
+  gnupload --to ftp.gnu.org:foobar foobar-1.0.tar.gz
+
+2. Upload foobar-1.0.tar.gz and foobar-1.0.tar.xz to ftp.gnu.org:
+  gnupload --to ftp.gnu.org:foobar foobar-1.0.tar.gz foobar-1.0.tar.xz
+
+3. Same as above, and also create symbolic links to foobar-latest.tar.*:
+  gnupload --to ftp.gnu.org:foobar \\
+           --symlink-regex \\
+           foobar-1.0.tar.gz foobar-1.0.tar.xz
+
+4. Upload foobar-0.9.90.tar.gz to two sites:
+  gnupload --to alpha.gnu.org:foobar \\
+           --to sources.redhat.com:~ftp/pub/foobar \\
+           foobar-0.9.90.tar.gz
+
+5. Delete oopsbar-0.9.91.tar.gz and upload foobar-0.9.91.tar.gz
+   (the -- terminates the list of files to delete):
+  gnupload --to alpha.gnu.org:foobar \\
+           --to sources.redhat.com:~ftp/pub/foobar \\
+           --delete oopsbar-0.9.91.tar.gz \\
+           -- foobar-0.9.91.tar.gz
+
+gnupload uses the ncftpput program to do the transfers; if you don't
+happen to have an ncftp package installed, the ncftpput-ftp script in
+the build-aux/ directory of the gnulib package
+(http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib) may serve as a replacement.

+% a Texinfo source document, you may use the result without
+% restriction.  (This has been our intent since Texinfo was invented.)
+%
+% Please try the latest version of texinfo.tex before submitting bug
+% reports; you can get the latest version from:
+%   http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/ (the Texinfo home page), or
+%   ftp://tug.org/tex/texinfo.tex
+%     (and all CTAN mirrors, see http://www.ctan.org).
+% The texinfo.tex in any given distribution could well be out
+% of date, so if that's what you're using, please check.
+%
+% Send bug reports to bug-texinfo@gnu.org.  Please include including a
+% complete document in each bug report with which we can reproduce the
+% problem.  Patches are, of course, greatly appreciated.
+%
+% To process a Texinfo manual with TeX, it's most reliable to use the
+% texi2dvi shell script that comes with the distribution.  For a simple
+% manual foo.texi, however, you can get away with this:
+%   tex foo.texi
+%   texindex foo.??
+%   tex foo.texi
+%   tex foo.texi
+%   dvips foo.dvi -o  # or whatever; this makes foo.ps.
+% The extra TeX runs get the cross-reference information correct.
+% Sometimes one run after texindex suffices, and sometimes you need more
+% than two; texi2dvi does it as many times as necessary.
+%
+% It is possible to adapt texinfo.tex for other languages, to some
+% extent.  You can get the existing language-specific files from the
+% full Texinfo distribution.

+% @multitable macros
+% Amy Hendrickson, 8/18/94, 3/6/96
+%
+% @multitable ... @end multitable will make as many columns as desired.
+% Contents of each column will wrap at width given in preamble.  Width
+% can be specified either with sample text given in a template line,
+% or in percent of \hsize, the current width of text on page.
+
+% Table can continue over pages but will only break between lines.
+
+% To make preamble:
+%
+% Either define widths of columns in terms of percent of \hsize:
+%   @multitable @columnfractions .25 .3 .45
+%   @item ...
+%
+%   Numbers following @columnfractions are the percent of the total
+%   current hsize to be used for each column. You may use as many
+%   columns as desired.
+
+
+% Or use a template:
+%   @multitable {Column 1 template} {Column 2 template} {Column 3 template}
+%   @item ...
+%   using the widest term desired in each column.
+
+% Each new table line starts with @item, each subsequent new column
+% starts with @tab. Empty columns may be produced by supplying @tab's
+% with nothing between them for as many times as empty columns are needed,
+% ie, @tab@tab@tab will produce two empty columns.
+
+% @item, @tab do not need to be on their own lines, but it will not hurt
+% if they are.
+
+% Sample multitable:
+
+%   @multitable {Column 1 template} {Column 2 template} {Column 3 template}
+%   @item first col stuff @tab second col stuff @tab third col
+%   @item
+%   first col stuff
+%   @tab
+%   second col stuff
+%   @tab
+%   third col
+%   @item first col stuff @tab second col stuff
+%   @tab Many paragraphs of text may be used in any column.
+%
+%         They will wrap at the width determined by the template.
+%   @item@tab@tab This will be in third column.
+%   @end multitable
+
+% Default dimensions may be reset by user.
+% @multitableparskip is vertical space between paragraphs in table.
+% @multitableparindent is paragraph indent in table.
+% @multitablecolmargin is horizontal space to be left between columns.
+% @multitablelinespace is space to leave between table items, baseline
+%                                                            to baseline.

+\`configure' configures GNU Autoconf 2.69 to adapt to many kinds of systems.
+
+Usage: $0 [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...
+
+To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
+VAR=VALUE.  See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.
+
+Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.
+
+Configuration:
+  -h, --help              display this help and exit
+      --help=short        display options specific to this package
+      --help=recursive    display the short help of all the included packages
+  -V, --version           display version information and exit
+  -q, --quiet, --silent   do not print \`checking ...' messages
+      --cache-file=FILE   cache test results in FILE [disabled]
+  -C, --config-cache      alias for \`--cache-file=config.cache'
+  -n, --no-create         do not create output files
+      --srcdir=DIR        find the sources in DIR [configure dir or \`..']
+
+Installation directories:
+  --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
+                          [$ac_default_prefix]
+  --exec-prefix=EPREFIX   install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
+                          [PREFIX]
+
+By default, \`make install' will install all the files in
+\`$ac_default_prefix/bin', \`$ac_default_prefix/lib' etc.  You can specify
+an installation prefix other than \`$ac_default_prefix' using \`--prefix',
+for instance \`--prefix=\$HOME'.
+
+For better control, use the options below.
+
+Fine tuning of the installation directories:
+  --bindir=DIR            user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
+  --sbindir=DIR           system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]

+  --libdir=DIR            object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
+  --includedir=DIR        C header files [PREFIX/include]
+  --oldincludedir=DIR     C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]

+  --with-lispdir          override the default lisp directory
+
+Some influential environment variables:
+  M4          Location of GNU M4 1.4.6 or later. Defaults to the first program
+              of `m4', `gm4', or `gnum4' on PATH that meets Autoconf needs.
+  EMACS       the Emacs editor command
+  EMACSLOADPATH

+dnl TODO remove the version check once we depend on autoconf 2.62.
+dnl Meanwhile, we must use a shell variable so that we bypass automake's
+dnl attempts to remove the sole copy of GNUmakefile in a non-VPATH build
+dnl during 'make distclean'.

+1 Introduction
+**************
+
+ A physicist, an engineer, and a computer scientist were discussing the
+     nature of God.  "Surely a Physicist," said the physicist, "because
+         early in the Creation, God made Light; and you know, Maxwell's
+  equations, the dual nature of electromagnetic waves, the relativistic
+           consequences..." "An Engineer!," said the engineer, "because
+before making Light, God split the Chaos into Land and Water; it takes a
+      hell of an engineer to handle that big amount of mud, and orderly
+           separation of solids from liquids..." The computer scientist
+  shouted: "And the Chaos, where do you think it was coming from, hmm?"
+
+                                                            --Anonymous
+
+   Autoconf is a tool for producing shell scripts that automatically
+configure software source code packages to adapt to many kinds of
+Posix-like systems.  The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf are
+independent of Autoconf when they are run, so their users do not need
+to have Autoconf.
+
+   The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf require no manual user
+intervention when run; they do not normally even need an argument
+specifying the system type.  Instead, they individually test for the
+presence of each feature that the software package they are for might
+need.  (Before each check, they print a one-line message stating what
+they are checking for, so the user doesn't get too bored while waiting
+for the script to finish.)  As a result, they deal well with systems
+that are hybrids or customized from the more common Posix variants.
+There is no need to maintain files that list the features supported by
+each release of each variant of Posix.
+
+   For each software package that Autoconf is used with, it creates a
+configuration script from a template file that lists the system features
+that the package needs or can use.  After the shell code to recognize
+and respond to a system feature has been written, Autoconf allows it to
+be shared by many software packages that can use (or need) that feature.
+If it later turns out that the shell code needs adjustment for some
+reason, it needs to be changed in only one place; all of the
+configuration scripts can be regenerated automatically to take advantage
+of the updated code.
+
+   Those who do not understand Autoconf are condemned to reinvent it,
+poorly.  The primary goal of Autoconf is making the _user's_ life
+easier; making the _maintainer's_ life easier is only a secondary goal.
+Put another way, the primary goal is not to make the generation of
+`configure' automatic for package maintainers (although patches along
+that front are welcome, since package maintainers form the user base of
+Autoconf); rather, the goal is to make `configure' painless, portable,
+and predictable for the end user of each "autoconfiscated" package.
+And to this degree, Autoconf is highly successful at its goal -- most
+complaints to the Autoconf list are about difficulties in writing
+Autoconf input, and not in the behavior of the resulting `configure'.
+Even packages that don't use Autoconf will generally provide a
+`configure' script, and the most common complaint about these
+alternative home-grown scripts is that they fail to meet one or more of
+the GNU Coding Standards (*note Configuration:
+(standards)Configuration.) that users have come to expect from
+Autoconf-generated `configure' scripts.
+
+   The Metaconfig package is similar in purpose to Autoconf, but the
+scripts it produces require manual user intervention, which is quite
+inconvenient when configuring large source trees.  Unlike Metaconfig
+scripts, Autoconf scripts can support cross-compiling, if some care is
+taken in writing them.
+
+   Autoconf does not solve all problems related to making portable
+software packages--for a more complete solution, it should be used in
+concert with other GNU build tools like Automake and Libtool.  These
+other tools take on jobs like the creation of a portable, recursive
+makefile with all of the standard targets, linking of shared libraries,
+and so on.  *Note The GNU Build System::, for more information.
+
+   Autoconf imposes some restrictions on the names of macros used with
+`#if' in C programs (*note Preprocessor Symbol Index::).
+
+   Autoconf requires GNU M4 version 1.4.6 or later in order to generate
+the scripts.  It uses features that some versions of M4, including GNU
+M4 1.3, do not have.  Autoconf works better with GNU M4 version 1.4.14
+or later, though this is not required.

+2 The GNU Build System
+**********************
+
+Autoconf solves an important problem--reliable discovery of
+system-specific build and runtime information--but this is only one
+piece of the puzzle for the development of portable software.  To this
+end, the GNU project has developed a suite of integrated utilities to
+finish the job Autoconf started: the GNU build system, whose most
+important components are Autoconf, Automake, and Libtool.  In this
+chapter, we introduce you to those tools, point you to sources of more
+information, and try to convince you to use the entire GNU build system
+for your software.

+
+2.1 Automake
+============
+
+The ubiquity of `make' means that a makefile is almost the only viable
+way to distribute automatic build rules for software, but one quickly
+runs into its numerous limitations.  Its lack of support for automatic
+dependency tracking, recursive builds in subdirectories, reliable
+timestamps (e.g., for network file systems), and so on, mean that
+developers must painfully (and often incorrectly) reinvent the wheel
+for each project.  Portability is non-trivial, thanks to the quirks of
+`make' on many systems.  On top of all this is the manual labor
+required to implement the many standard targets that users have come to
+expect (`make install', `make distclean', `make uninstall', etc.).
+Since you are, of course, using Autoconf, you also have to insert
+repetitive code in your `Makefile.in' to recognize `@CC@', `@CFLAGS@',
+and other substitutions provided by `configure'.  Into this mess steps
+"Automake".  
+
+   Automake allows you to specify your build needs in a `Makefile.am'
+file with a vastly simpler and more powerful syntax than that of a plain
+makefile, and then generates a portable `Makefile.in' for use with
+Autoconf.  For example, the `Makefile.am' to build and install a simple
+"Hello world" program might look like:
+
+     bin_PROGRAMS = hello
+     hello_SOURCES = hello.c
+
+The resulting `Makefile.in' (~400 lines) automatically supports all the
+standard targets, the substitutions provided by Autoconf, automatic
+dependency tracking, `VPATH' building, and so on.  `make' builds the
+`hello' program, and `make install' installs it in `/usr/local/bin' (or
+whatever prefix was given to `configure', if not `/usr/local').
+
+   The benefits of Automake increase for larger packages (especially
+ones with subdirectories), but even for small programs the added
+convenience and portability can be substantial.  And that's not all...

+
+2.2 Gnulib
+==========
+
+GNU software has a well-deserved reputation for running on many
+different types of systems.  While our primary goal is to write
+software for the GNU system, many users and developers have been
+introduced to us through the systems that they were already using.
+
+   Gnulib is a central location for common GNU code, intended to be
+shared among free software packages.  Its components are typically
+shared at the source level, rather than being a library that gets built,
+installed, and linked against.  The idea is to copy files from Gnulib
+into your own source tree.  There is no distribution tarball; developers
+should just grab source modules from the repository.  The source files
+are available online, under various licenses, mostly GNU GPL or GNU
+LGPL.
+
+   Gnulib modules typically contain C source code along with Autoconf
+macros used to configure the source code.  For example, the Gnulib
+`stdbool' module implements a `stdbool.h' header that nearly conforms
+to C99, even on old-fashioned hosts that lack `stdbool.h'.  This module
+contains a source file for the replacement header, along with an
+Autoconf macro that arranges to use the replacement header on
+old-fashioned systems.

+
+2.3 Libtool
+===========
+
+Often, one wants to build not only programs, but libraries, so that
+other programs can benefit from the fruits of your labor.  Ideally, one
+would like to produce _shared_ (dynamically linked) libraries, which
+can be used by multiple programs without duplication on disk or in
+memory and can be updated independently of the linked programs.
+Producing shared libraries portably, however, is the stuff of
+nightmares--each system has its own incompatible tools, compiler flags,
+and magic incantations.  Fortunately, GNU provides a solution:
+"Libtool".  
+
+   Libtool handles all the requirements of building shared libraries for
+you, and at this time seems to be the _only_ way to do so with any
+portability.  It also handles many other headaches, such as: the
+interaction of Make rules with the variable suffixes of shared
+libraries, linking reliably with shared libraries before they are
+installed by the superuser, and supplying a consistent versioning system
+(so that different versions of a library can be installed or upgraded
+without breaking binary compatibility).  Although Libtool, like
+Autoconf, can be used without Automake, it is most simply utilized in
+conjunction with Automake--there, Libtool is used automatically
+whenever shared libraries are needed, and you need not know its syntax.

+============
+
+Developers who are used to the simplicity of `make' for small projects
+on a single system might be daunted at the prospect of learning to use
+Automake and Autoconf.  As your software is distributed to more and
+more users, however, you otherwise quickly find yourself putting lots
+of effort into reinventing the services that the GNU build tools
+provide, and making the same mistakes that they once made and overcame.
+(Besides, since you're already learning Autoconf, Automake is a piece
+of cake.)

+3 Making `configure' Scripts
+****************************
+
+The configuration scripts that Autoconf produces are by convention
+called `configure'.  When run, `configure' creates several files,
+replacing configuration parameters in them with appropriate values.
+The files that `configure' creates are:
+
+   - one or more `Makefile' files, usually one in each subdirectory of
+     the package (*note Makefile Substitutions::);
+
+   - optionally, a C header file, the name of which is configurable,
+     containing `#define' directives (*note Configuration Headers::);
+
+   - a shell script called `config.status' that, when run, recreates
+     the files listed above (*note config.status Invocation::);
+
+   - an optional shell script normally called `config.cache' (created
+     when using `configure --config-cache') that saves the results of
+     running many of the tests (*note Cache Files::);
+
+   - a file called `config.log' containing any messages produced by
+     compilers, to help debugging if `configure' makes a mistake.
+
+   To create a `configure' script with Autoconf, you need to write an
+Autoconf input file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') and run
+`autoconf' on it.  If you write your own feature tests to supplement
+those that come with Autoconf, you might also write files called
+`aclocal.m4' and `acsite.m4'.  If you use a C header file to contain
+`#define' directives, you might also run `autoheader', and you can
+distribute the generated file `config.h.in' with the package.
+
+   Here is a diagram showing how the files that can be used in
+configuration are produced.  Programs that are executed are suffixed by
+`*'.  Optional files are enclosed in square brackets (`[]').
+`autoconf' and `autoheader' also read the installed Autoconf macro
+files (by reading `autoconf.m4').
+
+Files used in preparing a software package for distribution, when using
+just Autoconf:
+     your source files --> [autoscan*] --> [configure.scan] --> configure.ac

+
+     Makefile.in
+
+Additionally, if you use Automake, the following additional productions
+come into play:
+

+3.1 Writing `configure.ac'
+==========================
+
+To produce a `configure' script for a software package, create a file
+called `configure.ac' that contains invocations of the Autoconf macros
+that test the system features your package needs or can use.  Autoconf
+macros already exist to check for many features; see *note Existing
+Tests::, for their descriptions.  For most other features, you can use
+Autoconf template macros to produce custom checks; see *note Writing
+Tests::, for information about them.  For especially tricky or
+specialized features, `configure.ac' might need to contain some
+hand-crafted shell commands; see *note Portable Shell Programming:
+Portable Shell.  The `autoscan' program can give you a good start in
+writing `configure.ac' (*note autoscan Invocation::, for more
+information).
+
+   Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name `configure.in',
+which is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process this file is not
+described by its extension), and introduces a slight confusion with
+`config.h.in' and so on (for which `.in' means "to be processed by
+`configure'").  Using `configure.ac' is now preferred.

+
+3.1.1 A Shell Script Compiler
+-----------------------------
+
+Just as for any other computer language, in order to properly program
+`configure.ac' in Autoconf you must understand _what_ problem the
+language tries to address and _how_ it does so.
+
+   The problem Autoconf addresses is that the world is a mess.  After
+all, you are using Autoconf in order to have your package compile
+easily on all sorts of different systems, some of them being extremely
+hostile.  Autoconf itself bears the price for these differences:
+`configure' must run on all those systems, and thus `configure' must
+limit itself to their lowest common denominator of features.
+
+   Naturally, you might then think of shell scripts; who needs
+`autoconf'?  A set of properly written shell functions is enough to
+make it easy to write `configure' scripts by hand.  Sigh!
+Unfortunately, even in 2008, where shells without any function support
+are far and few between, there are pitfalls to avoid when making use of
+them.  Also, finding a Bourne shell that accepts shell functions is not
+trivial, even though there is almost always one on interesting porting
+targets.
+
+   So, what is really needed is some kind of compiler, `autoconf', that
+takes an Autoconf program, `configure.ac', and transforms it into a
+portable shell script, `configure'.
+
+   How does `autoconf' perform this task?
+
+   There are two obvious possibilities: creating a brand new language or
+extending an existing one.  The former option is attractive: all sorts
+of optimizations could easily be implemented in the compiler and many
+rigorous checks could be performed on the Autoconf program (e.g.,
+rejecting any non-portable construct).  Alternatively, you can extend
+an existing language, such as the `sh' (Bourne shell) language.
+
+   Autoconf does the latter: it is a layer on top of `sh'.  It was
+therefore most convenient to implement `autoconf' as a macro expander:
+a program that repeatedly performs "macro expansions" on text input,
+replacing macro calls with macro bodies and producing a pure `sh'
+script in the end.  Instead of implementing a dedicated Autoconf macro
+expander, it is natural to use an existing general-purpose macro
+language, such as M4, and implement the extensions as a set of M4
+macros.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Autoconf Language,  Next: Autoconf Input Layout,  Prev: Shell Script Compiler,  Up: Writing Autoconf Input
+
+3.1.2 The Autoconf Language
+---------------------------
+
+The Autoconf language differs from many other computer languages
+because it treats actual code the same as plain text.  Whereas in C,
+for instance, data and instructions have different syntactic status, in
+Autoconf their status is rigorously the same.  Therefore, we need a
+means to distinguish literal strings from text to be expanded:
+quotation.
+
+   When calling macros that take arguments, there must not be any white
+space between the macro name and the open parenthesis.
+
+     AC_INIT ([oops], [1.0]) # incorrect
+     AC_INIT([hello], [1.0]) # good
+
+   Arguments should be enclosed within the quote characters `[' and
+`]', and be separated by commas.  Any leading blanks or newlines in
+arguments are ignored, unless they are quoted.  You should always quote
+an argument that might contain a macro name, comma, parenthesis, or a
+leading blank or newline.  This rule applies recursively for every macro
+call, including macros called from other macros.  For more details on
+quoting rules, see *note Programming in M4::.
+
+   For instance:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER([stdio.h],
+                     [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_STDIO_H], [1],
+                        [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                     [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+
+is quoted properly.  You may safely simplify its quotation to:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER([stdio.h],
+                     [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_STDIO_H], 1,
+                        [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                     [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+
+because `1' cannot contain a macro call.  Here, the argument of
+`AC_MSG_ERROR' must be quoted; otherwise, its comma would be
+interpreted as an argument separator.  Also, the second and third
+arguments of `AC_CHECK_HEADER' must be quoted, since they contain macro
+calls.  The three arguments `HAVE_STDIO_H', `stdio.h', and `Define to 1
+if you have <stdio.h>.' do not need quoting, but if you unwisely
+defined a macro with a name like `Define' or `stdio' then they would
+need quoting.  Cautious Autoconf users would keep the quotes, but many
+Autoconf users find such precautions annoying, and would rewrite the
+example as follows:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER(stdio.h,
+                     [AC_DEFINE(HAVE_STDIO_H, 1,
+                        [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                     [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+
+This is safe, so long as you adopt good naming conventions and do not
+define macros with names like `HAVE_STDIO_H', `stdio', or `h'.  Though
+it is also safe here to omit the quotes around `Define to 1 if you have
+<stdio.h>.' this is not recommended, as message strings are more likely
+to inadvertently contain commas.
+
+   The following example is wrong and dangerous, as it is underquoted:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER(stdio.h,
+                     AC_DEFINE(HAVE_STDIO_H, 1,
+                        Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.),
+                     AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you]))
+
+   In other cases, you may have to use text that also resembles a macro
+call.  You must quote that text even when it is not passed as a macro
+argument.  For example, these two approaches in `configure.ac' (quoting
+just the potential problems, or quoting the entire line) will protect
+your script in case autoconf ever adds a macro `AC_DC':
+
+     echo "Hard rock was here!  --[AC_DC]"
+     [echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"]
+
+which results in this text in `configure':
+
+     echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"
+     echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"
+
+When you use the same text in a macro argument, you must therefore have
+an extra quotation level (since one is stripped away by the macro
+substitution).  In general, then, it is a good idea to _use double
+quoting for all literal string arguments_, either around just the
+problematic portions, or over the entire argument:
+
+     AC_MSG_WARN([[AC_DC] stinks  --Iron Maiden])
+     AC_MSG_WARN([[AC_DC stinks  --Iron Maiden]])
+
+   However, the above example triggers a warning about a possibly
+unexpanded macro when running `autoconf', because it collides with the
+namespace of macros reserved for the Autoconf language.  To be really
+safe, you can use additional escaping (either a quadrigraph, or
+creative shell constructs) to silence that particular warning:
+
+     echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC""_DC"
+     AC_MSG_WARN([[AC@&t@_DC stinks  --Iron Maiden]])
+
+   You are now able to understand one of the constructs of Autoconf that
+has been continually misunderstood...  The rule of thumb is that
+_whenever you expect macro expansion, expect quote expansion_; i.e.,
+expect one level of quotes to be lost.  For instance:
+
+     AC_COMPILE_IFELSE(AC_LANG_SOURCE([char b[10];]), [],
+      [AC_MSG_ERROR([you lose])])
+
+is incorrect: here, the first argument of `AC_LANG_SOURCE' is `char
+b[10];' and is expanded once, which results in `char b10;'; and the
+`AC_LANG_SOURCE' is also expanded prior to being passed to
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE'.  (There was an idiom common in Autoconf's past to
+address this issue via the M4 `changequote' primitive, but do not use
+it!)  Let's take a closer look: the author meant the first argument to
+be understood as a literal, and therefore it must be quoted twice;
+likewise, the intermediate `AC_LANG_SOURCE' macro should be quoted once
+so that it is only expanded after the rest of the body of
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' is in place:
+
+     AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_SOURCE([[char b[10];]])], [],
+       [AC_MSG_ERROR([you lose])])
+
+Voila`, you actually produce `char b[10];' this time!
+
+   On the other hand, descriptions (e.g., the last parameter of
+`AC_DEFINE' or `AS_HELP_STRING') are not literals--they are subject to
+line breaking, for example--and should not be double quoted.  Even if
+these descriptions are short and are not actually broken, double
+quoting them yields weird results.
+
+   Some macros take optional arguments, which this documentation
+represents as [ARG] (not to be confused with the quote characters).
+You may just leave them empty, or use `[]' to make the emptiness of the
+argument explicit, or you may simply omit the trailing commas.  The
+three lines below are equivalent:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h], [], [], [])
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h],,,)
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h])
+
+   It is best to put each macro call on its own line in `configure.ac'.
+Most of the macros don't add extra newlines; they rely on the newline
+after the macro call to terminate the commands.  This approach makes
+the generated `configure' script a little easier to read by not
+inserting lots of blank lines.  It is generally safe to set shell
+variables on the same line as a macro call, because the shell allows
+assignments without intervening newlines.
+
+   You can include comments in `configure.ac' files by starting them
+with the `#'.  For example, it is helpful to begin `configure.ac' files
+with a line like this:
+
+     # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
+

+
+3.1.3 Standard `configure.ac' Layout
+------------------------------------
+
+The order in which `configure.ac' calls the Autoconf macros is not
+important, with a few exceptions.  Every `configure.ac' must contain a
+call to `AC_INIT' before the checks, and a call to `AC_OUTPUT' at the
+end (*note Output::).  Additionally, some macros rely on other macros
+having been called first, because they check previously set values of
+some variables to decide what to do.  These macros are noted in the
+individual descriptions (*note Existing Tests::), and they also warn
+you when `configure' is created if they are called out of order.
+
+   To encourage consistency, here is a suggested order for calling the
+Autoconf macros.  Generally speaking, the things near the end of this
+list are those that could depend on things earlier in it.  For example,
+library functions could be affected by types and libraries.
+
+     Autoconf requirements
+     `AC_INIT(PACKAGE, VERSION, BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS)'
+     information on the package
+     checks for programs
+     checks for libraries
+     checks for header files
+     checks for types
+     checks for structures
+     checks for compiler characteristics
+     checks for library functions
+     checks for system services
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES([FILE...])'
+     `AC_OUTPUT'
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: autoscan Invocation,  Next: ifnames Invocation,  Prev: Writing Autoconf Input,  Up: Making configure Scripts
+
+3.2 Using `autoscan' to Create `configure.ac'
+=============================================
+
+The `autoscan' program can help you create and/or maintain a
+`configure.ac' file for a software package.  `autoscan' examines source
+files in the directory tree rooted at a directory given as a command
+line argument, or the current directory if none is given.  It searches
+the source files for common portability problems and creates a file
+`configure.scan' which is a preliminary `configure.ac' for that
+package, and checks a possibly existing `configure.ac' for completeness.
+
+   When using `autoscan' to create a `configure.ac', you should
+manually examine `configure.scan' before renaming it to `configure.ac';
+it probably needs some adjustments.  Occasionally, `autoscan' outputs a
+macro in the wrong order relative to another macro, so that `autoconf'
+produces a warning; you need to move such macros manually.  Also, if
+you want the package to use a configuration header file, you must add a
+call to `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' (*note Configuration Headers::).  You might
+also have to change or add some `#if' directives to your program in
+order to make it work with Autoconf (*note ifnames Invocation::, for
+information about a program that can help with that job).
+
+   When using `autoscan' to maintain a `configure.ac', simply consider
+adding its suggestions.  The file `autoscan.log' contains detailed
+information on why a macro is requested.
+
+   `autoscan' uses several data files (installed along with Autoconf)
+to determine which macros to output when it finds particular symbols in
+a package's source files.  These data files all have the same format:
+each line consists of a symbol, one or more blanks, and the Autoconf
+macro to output if that symbol is encountered.  Lines starting with `#'
+are comments.
+
+   `autoscan' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Print the names of the files it examines and the potentially
+     interesting symbols it finds in them.  This output can be
+     voluminous.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove temporary files.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Append DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.

+
+3.3 Using `ifnames' to List Conditionals
+========================================
+
+`ifnames' can help you write `configure.ac' for a software package.  It
+prints the identifiers that the package already uses in C preprocessor
+conditionals.  If a package has already been set up to have some
+portability, `ifnames' can thus help you figure out what its
+`configure' needs to check for.  It may help fill in some gaps in a
+`configure.ac' generated by `autoscan' (*note autoscan Invocation::).
+
+   `ifnames' scans all of the C source files named on the command line
+(or the standard input, if none are given) and writes to the standard
+output a sorted list of all the identifiers that appear in those files
+in `#if', `#elif', `#ifdef', or `#ifndef' directives.  It prints each
+identifier on a line, followed by a space-separated list of the files
+in which that identifier occurs.
+
+`ifnames' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.

+
+3.4 Using `autoconf' to Create `configure'
+==========================================
+
+To create `configure' from `configure.ac', run the `autoconf' program
+with no arguments.  `autoconf' processes `configure.ac' with the M4
+macro processor, using the Autoconf macros.  If you give `autoconf' an
+argument, it reads that file instead of `configure.ac' and writes the
+configuration script to the standard output instead of to `configure'.
+If you give `autoconf' the argument `-', it reads from the standard
+input instead of `configure.ac' and writes the configuration script to
+the standard output.
+
+   The Autoconf macros are defined in several files.  Some of the files
+are distributed with Autoconf; `autoconf' reads them first.  Then it
+looks for the optional file `acsite.m4' in the directory that contains
+the distributed Autoconf macro files, and for the optional file
+`aclocal.m4' in the current directory.  Those files can contain your
+site's or the package's own Autoconf macro definitions (*note Writing
+Autoconf Macros::, for more information).  If a macro is defined in
+more than one of the files that `autoconf' reads, the last definition
+it reads overrides the earlier ones.
+
+   `autoconf' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Report processing steps.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+     Remake `configure' even if newer than its input files.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Append DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--output=FILE'
+`-o FILE'
+     Save output (script or trace) to FILE.  The file `-' stands for
+     the standard output.
+
+`--warnings=CATEGORY'
+`-W CATEGORY'
+     Report the warnings related to CATEGORY (which can actually be a
+     comma separated list).  *Note Reporting Messages::, macro
+     `AC_DIAGNOSE', for a comprehensive list of categories.  Special
+     values include:
+
+    `all'
+          report all the warnings
+
+    `none'
+          report none
+
+    `error'
+          treats warnings as errors
+
+    `no-CATEGORY'
+          disable warnings falling into CATEGORY
+
+     Warnings about `syntax' are enabled by default, and the environment
+     variable `WARNINGS', a comma separated list of categories, is
+     honored as well.  Passing `-W CATEGORY' actually behaves as if you
+     had passed `--warnings syntax,$WARNINGS,CATEGORY'.  To disable the
+     defaults and `WARNINGS', and then enable warnings about obsolete
+     constructs, use `-W none,obsolete'.
+
+     Because `autoconf' uses `autom4te' behind the scenes, it displays
+     a back trace for errors, but not for warnings; if you want them,
+     just pass `-W error'.  *Note autom4te Invocation::, for some
+     examples.
+
+`--trace=MACRO[:FORMAT]'
+`-t MACRO[:FORMAT]'
+     Do not create the `configure' script, but list the calls to MACRO
+     according to the FORMAT.  Multiple `--trace' arguments can be used
+     to list several macros.  Multiple `--trace' arguments for a single
+     macro are not cumulative; instead, you should just make FORMAT as
+     long as needed.
+
+     The FORMAT is a regular string, with newlines if desired, and
+     several special escape codes.  It defaults to `$f:$l:$n:$%'; see
+     *note autom4te Invocation::, for details on the FORMAT.
+
+`--initialization'
+`-i'
+     By default, `--trace' does not trace the initialization of the
+     Autoconf macros (typically the `AC_DEFUN' definitions).  This
+     results in a noticeable speedup, but can be disabled by this
+     option.
+
+   It is often necessary to check the content of a `configure.ac' file,
+but parsing it yourself is extremely fragile and error-prone.  It is
+suggested that you rely upon `--trace' to scan `configure.ac'.  For
+instance, to find the list of variables that are substituted, use:
+
+     $ autoconf -t AC_SUBST
+     configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_C
+     configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_N
+     configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_T
+     More traces deleted
+
+The example below highlights the difference between `$@', `$*', and
+`$%'.
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_DEFINE(This, is, [an
+     [example]])
+     $ autoconf -t 'AC_DEFINE:@: $@
+     *: $*
+     %: $%'
+     @: [This],[is],[an
+     [example]]
+     *: This,is,an
+     [example]
+     %: This:is:an [example]
+
+The FORMAT gives you a lot of freedom:
+
+     $ autoconf -t 'AC_SUBST:$$ac_subst{"$1"} = "$f:$l";'
+     $ac_subst{"ECHO_C"} = "configure.ac:2";
+     $ac_subst{"ECHO_N"} = "configure.ac:2";
+     $ac_subst{"ECHO_T"} = "configure.ac:2";
+     More traces deleted
+
+A long SEPARATOR can be used to improve the readability of complex
+structures, and to ease their parsing (for instance when no single
+character is suitable as a separator):
+
+     $ autoconf -t 'AM_MISSING_PROG:${|:::::|}*'
+     ACLOCAL|:::::|aclocal|:::::|$missing_dir
+     AUTOCONF|:::::|autoconf|:::::|$missing_dir
+     AUTOMAKE|:::::|automake|:::::|$missing_dir
+     More traces deleted

+3.5 Using `autoreconf' to Update `configure' Scripts
+====================================================
+
+Installing the various components of the GNU Build System can be
+tedious: running `autopoint' for Gettext, `automake' for `Makefile.in'
+etc. in each directory.  It may be needed either because some tools
+such as `automake' have been updated on your system, or because some of
+the sources such as `configure.ac' have been updated, or finally,
+simply in order to install the GNU Build System in a fresh tree.
+
+   `autoreconf' runs `autoconf', `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake',
+`libtoolize', and `autopoint' (when appropriate) repeatedly to update
+the GNU Build System in the specified directories and their
+subdirectories (*note Subdirectories::).  By default, it only remakes
+those files that are older than their sources.  The environment
+variables `AUTOM4TE', `AUTOCONF', `AUTOHEADER', `AUTOMAKE', `ACLOCAL',
+`AUTOPOINT', `LIBTOOLIZE', `M4', and `MAKE' may be used to override the
+invocation of the respective tools.
+
+   If you install a new version of some tool, you can make `autoreconf'
+remake _all_ of the files by giving it the `--force' option.
+
+   *Note Automatic Remaking::, for Make rules to automatically rebuild
+`configure' scripts when their source files change.  That method
+handles the timestamps of configuration header templates properly, but
+does not pass `--autoconf-dir=DIR' or `--localdir=DIR'.
+
+   Gettext supplies the `autopoint' command to add translation
+infrastructure to a source package.  If you use `autopoint', your
+`configure.ac' should invoke both `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' and
+`AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(GETTEXT-VERSION)'.  *Note Invoking the
+`autopoint' Program: (gettext)autopoint Invocation, for further details.
+
+`autoreconf' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Print the name of each directory `autoreconf' examines and the
+     commands it runs.  If given two or more times, pass `--verbose' to
+     subordinate tools that support it.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+     Remake even `configure' scripts and configuration headers that are
+     newer than their input files (`configure.ac' and, if present,
+     `aclocal.m4').
+
+`--install'
+`-i'
+     Install the missing auxiliary files in the package.  By default,
+     files are copied; this can be changed with `--symlink'.
+
+     If deemed appropriate, this option triggers calls to `automake
+     --add-missing', `libtoolize', `autopoint', etc.
+
+`--no-recursive'
+     Do not rebuild files in subdirectories to configure (see *note
+     Subdirectories::, macro `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS').
+
+`--symlink'
+`-s'
+     When used with `--install', install symbolic links to the missing
+     auxiliary files instead of copying them.
+
+`--make'
+`-m'
+     When the directories were configured, update the configuration by
+     running `./config.status --recheck && ./config.status', and then
+     run `make'.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Append DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+     Passed on to `aclocal', `autoconf' and `autoheader' internally.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+     Passed on to `autoconf' and `autoheader' internally.
+
+`--warnings=CATEGORY'
+`-W CATEGORY'
+     Report the warnings related to CATEGORY (which can actually be a
+     comma separated list).
+
+    `cross'
+          related to cross compilation issues.
+
+    `obsolete'
+          report the uses of obsolete constructs.
+
+    `portability'
+          portability issues
+
+    `syntax'
+          dubious syntactic constructs.
+
+    `all'
+          report all the warnings
+
+    `none'
+          report none
+
+    `error'
+          treats warnings as errors
+
+    `no-CATEGORY'
+          disable warnings falling into CATEGORY
+
+     Warnings about `syntax' are enabled by default, and the environment
+     variable `WARNINGS', a comma separated list of categories, is
+     honored as well.  Passing `-W CATEGORY' actually behaves as if you
+     had passed `--warnings syntax,$WARNINGS,CATEGORY'.  To disable the
+     defaults and `WARNINGS', and then enable warnings about obsolete
+     constructs, use `-W none,obsolete'.
+
+   If you want `autoreconf' to pass flags that are not listed here on
+to `aclocal', set `ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS' in your `Makefile.am'.  Due to a
+limitation in the Autoconf implementation these flags currently must be
+set on a single line in `Makefile.am', without any backslash-newlines.

+
+4.1 Initializing `configure'
+============================
+
+Every `configure' script must call `AC_INIT' before doing anything else
+that produces output.  Calls to silent macros, such as `AC_DEFUN', may
+also occur prior to `AC_INIT', although these are generally used via
+`aclocal.m4', since that is implicitly included before the start of
+`configure.ac'.  The only other required macro is `AC_OUTPUT' (*note
+Output::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_INIT (PACKAGE, VERSION, [BUG-REPORT], [TARNAME], [URL])
+     Process any command-line arguments and perform initialization and
+     verification.
+
+     Set the name of the PACKAGE and its VERSION.  These are typically
+     used in `--version' support, including that of `configure'.  The
+     optional argument BUG-REPORT should be the email to which users
+     should send bug reports.  The package TARNAME differs from
+     PACKAGE: the latter designates the full package name (e.g., `GNU
+     Autoconf'), while the former is meant for distribution tar ball
+     names (e.g., `autoconf').  It defaults to PACKAGE with `GNU '
+     stripped, lower-cased, and all characters other than alphanumerics
+     and underscores are changed to `-'.  If provided, URL should be
+     the home page for the package.
+
+     The arguments of `AC_INIT' must be static, i.e., there should not
+     be any shell computation, quotes, or newlines, but they can be
+     computed by M4.  This is because the package information strings
+     are expanded at M4 time into several contexts, and must give the
+     same text at shell time whether used in single-quoted strings,
+     double-quoted strings, quoted here-documents, or unquoted
+     here-documents.  It is permissible to use `m4_esyscmd' or
+     `m4_esyscmd_s' for computing a version string that changes with
+     every commit to a version control system (in fact, Autoconf does
+     just that, for all builds of the development tree made between
+     releases).
+
+     The following M4 macros (e.g., `AC_PACKAGE_NAME'), output variables
+     (e.g., `PACKAGE_NAME'), and preprocessor symbols (e.g.,
+     `PACKAGE_NAME'), are defined by `AC_INIT':
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_NAME', `PACKAGE_NAME'
+          Exactly PACKAGE.
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME', `PACKAGE_TARNAME'
+          Exactly TARNAME, possibly generated from PACKAGE.
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_VERSION', `PACKAGE_VERSION'
+          Exactly VERSION.
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_STRING', `PACKAGE_STRING'
+          Exactly `PACKAGE VERSION'.
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT', `PACKAGE_BUGREPORT'
+          Exactly BUG-REPORT, if one was provided.  Typically an email
+          address, or URL to a bug management web page.
+
+    `AC_PACKAGE_URL', `PACKAGE_URL'
+          Exactly URL, if one was provided.  If URL was empty, but
+          PACKAGE begins with `GNU ', then this defaults to
+          `http://www.gnu.org/software/TARNAME/', otherwise, no URL is
+          assumed.
+
+   If your `configure' script does its own option processing, it should
+inspect `$@' or `$*' immediately after calling `AC_INIT', because other
+Autoconf macros liberally use the `set' command to process strings, and
+this has the side effect of updating `$@' and `$*'.  However, we
+suggest that you use standard macros like `AC_ARG_ENABLE' instead of
+attempting to implement your own option processing.  *Note Site
+Configuration::.

+
+4.2 Dealing with Autoconf versions
+==================================
+
+The following optional macros can be used to help choose the minimum
+version of Autoconf that can successfully compile a given
+`configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PREREQ (VERSION)
+     Ensure that a recent enough version of Autoconf is being used.  If
+     the version of Autoconf being used to create `configure' is
+     earlier than VERSION, print an error message to the standard error
+     output and exit with failure (exit status is 63).  For example:
+
+          AC_PREREQ([2.69])
+
+     This macro may be used before `AC_INIT'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  It identifies the
+     version of Autoconf that is currently parsing the input file, in a
+     format suitable for `m4_version_compare' (*note
+     m4_version_compare::); in other words, for this release of
+     Autoconf, its value is `2.69'.  One potential use of this macro is
+     for writing conditional fallbacks based on when a feature was
+     added to Autoconf, rather than using `AC_PREREQ' to require the
+     newer version of Autoconf.  However, remember that the Autoconf
+     philosophy favors feature checks over version checks.
+
+     You should not expand this macro directly; use
+     `m4_defn([AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION])' instead.  This is because some
+     users might have a beta version of Autoconf installed, with
+     arbitrary letters included in its version string.  This means it
+     is possible for the version string to contain the name of a
+     defined macro, such that expanding `AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION' would
+     trigger the expansion of that macro during rescanning, and change
+     the version string to be different than what you intended to check.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Notices,  Next: Input,  Prev: Versioning,  Up: Setup
+
+4.3 Notices in `configure'
+==========================
+
+The following macros manage version numbers for `configure' scripts.
+Using them is optional.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_COPYRIGHT (COPYRIGHT-NOTICE)
+     State that, in addition to the Free Software Foundation's
+     copyright on the Autoconf macros, parts of your `configure' are
+     covered by the COPYRIGHT-NOTICE.
+
+     The COPYRIGHT-NOTICE shows up in both the head of `configure' and
+     in `configure --version'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REVISION (REVISION-INFO)
+     Copy revision stamp REVISION-INFO into the `configure' script,
+     with any dollar signs or double-quotes removed.  This macro lets
+     you put a revision stamp from `configure.ac' into `configure'
+     without RCS or CVS changing it when you check in `configure'.
+     That way, you can determine easily which revision of
+     `configure.ac' a particular `configure' corresponds to.
+
+     For example, this line in `configure.ac':
+
+          AC_REVISION([$Revision: 1.30 $])
+
+     produces this in `configure':
+
+          #!/bin/sh
+          # From configure.ac Revision: 1.30
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Input,  Next: Output,  Prev: Notices,  Up: Setup
+
+4.4 Finding `configure' Input
+=============================
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR (UNIQUE-FILE-IN-SOURCE-DIR)
+     UNIQUE-FILE-IN-SOURCE-DIR is some file that is in the package's
+     source directory; `configure' checks for this file's existence to
+     make sure that the directory that it is told contains the source
+     code in fact does.  Occasionally people accidentally specify the
+     wrong directory with `--srcdir'; this is a safety check.  *Note
+     configure Invocation::, for more information.
+
+   Packages that do manual configuration or use the `install' program
+might need to tell `configure' where to find some other shell scripts
+by calling `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR', though the default places it looks are
+correct for most cases.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR (DIR)
+     Use the auxiliary build tools (e.g., `install-sh', `config.sub',
+     `config.guess', Cygnus `configure', Automake and Libtool scripts,
+     etc.) that are in directory DIR.  These are auxiliary files used
+     in configuration.  DIR can be either absolute or relative to
+     `SRCDIR'.  The default is `SRCDIR' or `SRCDIR/..' or
+     `SRCDIR/../..', whichever is the first that contains `install-sh'.
+     The other files are not checked for, so that using
+     `AC_PROG_INSTALL' does not automatically require distributing the
+     other auxiliary files.  It checks for `install.sh' also, but that
+     name is obsolete because some `make' have a rule that creates
+     `install' from it if there is no makefile.
+
+     The auxiliary directory is commonly named `build-aux'.  If you
+     need portability to DOS variants, do not name the auxiliary
+     directory `aux'.  *Note File System Conventions::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE (FILE)
+     Declares that FILE is expected in the directory defined above.  In
+     Autoconf proper, this macro does nothing: its sole purpose is to be
+     traced by third-party tools to produce a list of expected auxiliary
+     files.  For instance it is called by macros like `AC_PROG_INSTALL'
+     (*note Particular Programs::) or `AC_CANONICAL_BUILD' (*note
+     Canonicalizing::) to register the auxiliary files they need.
+
+   Similarly, packages that use `aclocal' should declare where local
+macros can be found using `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR (DIR)
+     Specify DIR as the location of additional local Autoconf macros.
+     This macro is intended for use by future versions of commands like
+     `autoreconf' that trace macro calls.  It should be called directly
+     from `configure.ac' so that tools that install macros for
+     `aclocal' can find the macros' declarations.
+
+     Note that if you use `aclocal' from Automake to generate
+     `aclocal.m4', you must also set `ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I DIR' in your
+     top-level `Makefile.am'.  Due to a limitation in the Autoconf
+     implementation of `autoreconf', these include directives currently
+     must be set on a single line in `Makefile.am', without any
+     backslash-newlines.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Output,  Next: Configuration Actions,  Prev: Input,  Up: Setup
+
+4.5 Outputting Files
+====================
+
+Every Autoconf script, e.g., `configure.ac', should finish by calling
+`AC_OUTPUT'.  That is the macro that generates and runs
+`config.status', which in turn creates the makefiles and any other
+files resulting from configuration.  This is the only required macro
+besides `AC_INIT' (*note Input::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OUTPUT
+     Generate `config.status' and launch it.  Call this macro once, at
+     the end of `configure.ac'.
+
+     `config.status' performs all the configuration actions: all the
+     output files (see *note Configuration Files::, macro
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES'), header files (see *note Configuration
+     Headers::, macro `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'), commands (see *note
+     Configuration Commands::, macro `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS'), links (see
+     *note Configuration Links::, macro `AC_CONFIG_LINKS'),
+     subdirectories to configure (see *note Subdirectories::, macro
+     `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS') are honored.
+
+     The location of your `AC_OUTPUT' invocation is the exact point
+     where configuration actions are taken: any code afterwards is
+     executed by `configure' once `config.status' was run.  If you want
+     to bind actions to `config.status' itself (independently of
+     whether `configure' is being run), see *note Running Arbitrary
+     Configuration Commands: Configuration Commands.
+
+   Historically, the usage of `AC_OUTPUT' was somewhat different.
+*Note Obsolete Macros::, for a description of the arguments that
+`AC_OUTPUT' used to support.
+
+   If you run `make' in subdirectories, you should run it using the
+`make' variable `MAKE'.  Most versions of `make' set `MAKE' to the name
+of the `make' program plus any options it was given.  (But many do not
+include in it the values of any variables set on the command line, so
+those are not passed on automatically.)  Some old versions of `make' do
+not set this variable.  The following macro allows you to use it even
+with those versions.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_MAKE_SET
+     If the Make command, `$MAKE' if set or else `make', predefines
+     `$(MAKE)', define output variable `SET_MAKE' to be empty.
+     Otherwise, define `SET_MAKE' to a macro definition that sets
+     `$(MAKE)', such as `MAKE=make'.  Calls `AC_SUBST' for `SET_MAKE'.
+
+   If you use this macro, place a line like this in each `Makefile.in'
+that runs `MAKE' on other directories:
+
+     @SET_MAKE@
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Configuration Actions,  Next: Configuration Files,  Prev: Output,  Up: Setup
+
+4.6 Performing Configuration Actions
+====================================
+
+`configure' is designed so that it appears to do everything itself, but
+there is actually a hidden slave: `config.status'.  `configure' is in
+charge of examining your system, but it is `config.status' that
+actually takes the proper actions based on the results of `configure'.
+The most typical task of `config.status' is to _instantiate_ files.
+
+   This section describes the common behavior of the four standard
+instantiating macros: `AC_CONFIG_FILES', `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS',
+`AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' and `AC_CONFIG_LINKS'.  They all have this
+prototype:
+
+     AC_CONFIG_ITEMS(TAG..., [COMMANDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+
+where the arguments are:
+
+TAG...
+     A blank-or-newline-separated list of tags, which are typically the
+     names of the files to instantiate.
+
+     You are encouraged to use literals as TAGS.  In particular, you
+     should avoid
+
+          ... && my_foos="$my_foos fooo"
+          ... && my_foos="$my_foos foooo"
+          AC_CONFIG_ITEMS([$my_foos])
+
+     and use this instead:
+
+          ... && AC_CONFIG_ITEMS([fooo])
+          ... && AC_CONFIG_ITEMS([foooo])
+
+     The macros `AC_CONFIG_FILES' and `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' use special
+     TAG values: they may have the form `OUTPUT' or `OUTPUT:INPUTS'.
+     The file OUTPUT is instantiated from its templates, INPUTS
+     (defaulting to `OUTPUT.in').
+
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk])', for
+     example, asks for the creation of the file `Makefile' that
+     contains the expansion of the output variables in the
+     concatenation of `boiler/top.mk' and `boiler/bot.mk'.
+
+     The special value `-' might be used to denote the standard output
+     when used in OUTPUT, or the standard input when used in the
+     INPUTS.  You most probably don't need to use this in
+     `configure.ac', but it is convenient when using the command line
+     interface of `./config.status', see *note config.status
+     Invocation::, for more details.
+
+     The INPUTS may be absolute or relative file names.  In the latter
+     case they are first looked for in the build tree, and then in the
+     source tree.  Input files should be text files, and a line length
+     below 2000 bytes should be safe.
+
+COMMANDS
+     Shell commands output literally into `config.status', and
+     associated with a tag that the user can use to tell `config.status'
+     which commands to run.  The commands are run each time a TAG
+     request is given to `config.status', typically each time the file
+     `TAG' is created.
+
+     The variables set during the execution of `configure' are _not_
+     available here: you first need to set them via the INIT-CMDS.
+     Nonetheless the following variables are precomputed:
+
+    `srcdir'
+          The name of the top source directory, assuming that the
+          working directory is the top build directory.  This is what
+          the `configure' option `--srcdir' sets.
+
+    `ac_top_srcdir'
+          The name of the top source directory, assuming that the
+          working directory is the current build directory.
+
+    `ac_top_build_prefix'
+          The name of the top build directory, assuming that the working
+          directory is the current build directory.  It can be empty,
+          or else ends with a slash, so that you may concatenate it.
+
+    `ac_srcdir'
+          The name of the corresponding source directory, assuming that
+          the working directory is the current build directory.
+
+    `tmp'
+          The name of a temporary directory within the build tree,
+          which you can use if you need to create additional temporary
+          files.  The directory is cleaned up when `config.status' is
+          done or interrupted.  Please use package-specific file name
+          prefixes to avoid clashing with files that `config.status'
+          may use internally.
+
+     The "current" directory refers to the directory (or
+     pseudo-directory) containing the input part of TAGS.  For
+     instance, running
+
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([deep/dir/out:in/in.in], [...], [...])
+
+     with `--srcdir=../package' produces the following values:
+
+          # Argument of --srcdir
+          srcdir='../package'
+          # Reversing deep/dir
+          ac_top_build_prefix='../../'
+          # Concatenation of $ac_top_build_prefix and srcdir
+          ac_top_srcdir='../../../package'
+          # Concatenation of $ac_top_srcdir and deep/dir
+          ac_srcdir='../../../package/deep/dir'
+
+     independently of `in/in.in'.
+
+INIT-CMDS
+     Shell commands output _unquoted_ near the beginning of
+     `config.status', and executed each time `config.status' runs
+     (regardless of the tag).  Because they are unquoted, for example,
+     `$var' is output as the value of `var'.  INIT-CMDS is typically
+     used by `configure' to give `config.status' some variables it
+     needs to run the COMMANDS.
+
+     You should be extremely cautious in your variable names: all the
+     INIT-CMDS share the same name space and may overwrite each other
+     in unpredictable ways.  Sorry...
+
+   All these macros can be called multiple times, with different TAG
+values, of course!

+4.7 Creating Configuration Files
+================================
+
+Be sure to read the previous section, *note Configuration Actions::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_FILES (FILE..., [CMDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+     Make `AC_OUTPUT' create each `FILE' by copying an input file (by
+     default `FILE.in'), substituting the output variable values.  This
+     macro is one of the instantiating macros; see *note Configuration
+     Actions::.  *Note Makefile Substitutions::, for more information
+     on using output variables.  *Note Setting Output Variables::, for
+     more information on creating them.  This macro creates the
+     directory that the file is in if it doesn't exist.  Usually,
+     makefiles are created this way, but other files, such as
+     `.gdbinit', can be specified as well.
+
+     Typical calls to `AC_CONFIG_FILES' look like this:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile src/Makefile man/Makefile X/Imakefile])
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([autoconf], [chmod +x autoconf])
+
+     You can override an input file name by appending to FILE a
+     colon-separated list of input files.  Examples:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk]
+                          [lib/Makefile:boiler/lib.mk])
+
+     Doing this allows you to keep your file names acceptable to DOS
+     variants, or to prepend and/or append boilerplate to the file.

+
+4.8 Substitutions in Makefiles
+==============================
+
+Each subdirectory in a distribution that contains something to be
+compiled or installed should come with a file `Makefile.in', from which
+`configure' creates a file `Makefile' in that directory.  To create
+`Makefile', `configure' performs a simple variable substitution,
+replacing occurrences of `@VARIABLE@' in `Makefile.in' with the value
+that `configure' has determined for that variable.  Variables that are
+substituted into output files in this way are called "output
+variables".  They are ordinary shell variables that are set in
+`configure'.  To make `configure' substitute a particular variable into
+the output files, the macro `AC_SUBST' must be called with that
+variable name as an argument.  Any occurrences of `@VARIABLE@' for
+other variables are left unchanged.  *Note Setting Output Variables::,
+for more information on creating output variables with `AC_SUBST'.
+
+   A software package that uses a `configure' script should be
+distributed with a file `Makefile.in', but no makefile; that way, the
+user has to properly configure the package for the local system before
+compiling it.
+

+more information on what to put in makefiles.

+
+4.8.1 Preset Output Variables
+-----------------------------
+
+Some output variables are preset by the Autoconf macros.  Some of the
+Autoconf macros set additional output variables, which are mentioned in
+the descriptions for those macros.  *Note Output Variable Index::, for a
+complete list of output variables.  *Note Installation Directory
+Variables::, for the list of the preset ones related to installation
+directories.  Below are listed the other preset ones, many of which are
+precious variables (*note Setting Output Variables::, `AC_ARG_VAR').
+
+   The preset variables which are available during `config.status'
+(*note Configuration Actions::) may also be used during `configure'
+tests.  For example, it is permissible to reference `$srcdir' when
+constructing a list of directories to pass via option `-I' during a
+compiler feature check.  When used in this manner, coupled with the
+fact that `configure' is always run from the top build directory, it is
+sufficient to use just `$srcdir' instead of `$top_srcdir'.
+
+ -- Variable: CFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the C compiler.  If it is
+     not set in the environment when `configure' runs, the default
+     value is set when you call `AC_PROG_CC' (or empty if you don't).
+     `configure' uses this variable when compiling or linking programs
+     to test for C features.
+
+     If a compiler option affects only the behavior of the preprocessor
+     (e.g., `-DNAME'), it should be put into `CPPFLAGS' instead.  If it
+     affects only the linker (e.g., `-LDIRECTORY'), it should be put
+     into `LDFLAGS' instead.  If it affects only the compiler proper,
+     `CFLAGS' is the natural home for it.  If an option affects
+     multiple phases of the compiler, though, matters get tricky.  One
+     approach to put such options directly into `CC', e.g., `CC='gcc
+     -m64''.  Another is to put them into both `CPPFLAGS' and
+     `LDFLAGS', but not into `CFLAGS'.
+
+     However, remember that some `Makefile' variables are reserved by
+     the GNU Coding Standards for the use of the "user"--the person
+     building the package.  For instance, `CFLAGS' is one such variable.
+
+     Sometimes package developers are tempted to set user variables
+     such as `CFLAGS' because it appears to make their job easier.
+     However, the package itself should never set a user variable,
+     particularly not to include switches that are required for proper
+     compilation of the package.  Since these variables are documented
+     as being for the package builder, that person rightfully expects
+     to be able to override any of these variables at build time.  If
+     the package developer needs to add switches without interfering
+     with the user, the proper way to do that is to introduce an
+     additional variable.  Automake makes this easy by introducing
+     `AM_CFLAGS' (*note Flag Variables Ordering: (automake)Flag
+     Variables Ordering.), but the concept is the same even if Automake
+     is not used.
+
+ -- Variable: configure_input
+     A comment saying that the file was generated automatically by
+     `configure' and giving the name of the input file.  `AC_OUTPUT'
+     adds a comment line containing this variable to the top of every
+     makefile it creates.  For other files, you should reference this
+     variable in a comment at the top of each input file.  For example,
+     an input shell script should begin like this:
+
+          #!/bin/sh
+          # @configure_input@
+
+     The presence of that line also reminds people editing the file
+     that it needs to be processed by `configure' in order to be used.
+
+ -- Variable: CPPFLAGS
+     Preprocessor options for the C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++
+     preprocessors and compilers.  If it is not set in the environment
+     when `configure' runs, the default value is empty.  `configure'
+     uses this variable when preprocessing or compiling programs to
+     test for C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++ features.
+
+     This variable's contents should contain options like `-I', `-D',
+     and `-U' that affect only the behavior of the preprocessor.
+     Please see the explanation of `CFLAGS' for what you can do if an
+     option affects other phases of the compiler as well.
+
+     Currently, `configure' always links as part of a single invocation
+     of the compiler that also preprocesses and compiles, so it uses
+     this variable also when linking programs.  However, it is unwise to
+     depend on this behavior because the GNU Coding Standards do not
+     require it and many packages do not use `CPPFLAGS' when linking
+     programs.
+
+     *Note Special Chars in Variables::, for limitations that `CPPFLAGS'
+     might run into.
+
+ -- Variable: CXXFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the C++ compiler.  It acts
+     like `CFLAGS', but for C++ instead of C.
+
+ -- Variable: DEFS
+     `-D' options to pass to the C compiler.  If `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' is
+     called, `configure' replaces `@DEFS@' with `-DHAVE_CONFIG_H'
+     instead (*note Configuration Headers::).  This variable is not
+     defined while `configure' is performing its tests, only when
+     creating the output files.  *Note Setting Output Variables::, for
+     how to check the results of previous tests.
+
+ -- Variable: ECHO_C
+ -- Variable: ECHO_N
+ -- Variable: ECHO_T
+     How does one suppress the trailing newline from `echo' for
+     question-answer message pairs?  These variables provide a way:
+
+          echo $ECHO_N "And the winner is... $ECHO_C"
+          sleep 100000000000
+          echo "${ECHO_T}dead."
+
+     Some old and uncommon `echo' implementations offer no means to
+     achieve this, in which case `ECHO_T' is set to tab.  You might not
+     want to use it.
+
+ -- Variable: ERLCFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Erlang compiler.  If it
+     is not set in the environment when `configure' runs, the default
+     value is empty.  `configure' uses this variable when compiling
+     programs to test for Erlang features.
+
+ -- Variable: FCFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Fortran compiler.  If it
+     is not set in the environment when `configure' runs, the default
+     value is set when you call `AC_PROG_FC' (or empty if you don't).
+     `configure' uses this variable when compiling or linking programs
+     to test for Fortran features.
+
+ -- Variable: FFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Fortran 77 compiler.
+     If it is not set in the environment when `configure' runs, the
+     default value is set when you call `AC_PROG_F77' (or empty if you
+     don't).  `configure' uses this variable when compiling or linking
+     programs to test for Fortran 77 features.
+
+ -- Variable: LDFLAGS
+     Options for the linker.  If it is not set in the environment when
+     `configure' runs, the default value is empty.  `configure' uses
+     this variable when linking programs to test for C, C++, Objective
+     C, Objective C++, Fortran, and Go features.
+
+     This variable's contents should contain options like `-s' and `-L'
+     that affect only the behavior of the linker.  Please see the
+     explanation of `CFLAGS' for what you can do if an option also
+     affects other phases of the compiler.
+
+     Don't use this variable to pass library names (`-l') to the
+     linker; use `LIBS' instead.
+
+ -- Variable: LIBS
+     `-l' options to pass to the linker.  The default value is empty,
+     but some Autoconf macros may prepend extra libraries to this
+     variable if those libraries are found and provide necessary
+     functions, see *note Libraries::.  `configure' uses this variable
+     when linking programs to test for C, C++, Objective C, Objective
+     C++, Fortran, and Go features.
+
+ -- Variable: OBJCFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Objective C compiler.
+     It acts like `CFLAGS', but for Objective C instead of C.
+
+ -- Variable: OBJCXXFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Objective C++ compiler.
+     It acts like `CXXFLAGS', but for Objective C++ instead of C++.
+
+ -- Variable: GOFLAGS
+     Debugging and optimization options for the Go compiler.  It acts
+     like `CFLAGS', but for Go instead of C.
+
+ -- Variable: builddir
+     Rigorously equal to `.'.  Added for symmetry only.
+
+ -- Variable: abs_builddir
+     Absolute name of `builddir'.
+
+ -- Variable: top_builddir
+     The relative name of the top level of the current build tree.  In
+     the top-level directory, this is the same as `builddir'.
+
+ -- Variable: top_build_prefix
+     The relative name of the top level of the current build tree with
+     final slash if nonempty.  This is the same as `top_builddir',
+     except that it contains zero or more runs of `../', so it should
+     not be appended with a slash for concatenation.  This helps for
+     `make' implementations that otherwise do not treat `./file' and
+     `file' as equal in the toplevel build directory.
+
+ -- Variable: abs_top_builddir
+     Absolute name of `top_builddir'.
+
+ -- Variable: srcdir
+     The name of the directory that contains the source code for that
+     makefile.
+
+ -- Variable: abs_srcdir
+     Absolute name of `srcdir'.
+
+ -- Variable: top_srcdir
+     The name of the top-level source code directory for the package.
+     In the top-level directory, this is the same as `srcdir'.
+
+ -- Variable: abs_top_srcdir
+     Absolute name of `top_srcdir'.

+4.8.2 Installation Directory Variables
+--------------------------------------
+
+The following variables specify the directories for package
+installation, see *note Variables for Installation Directories:
+(standards)Directory Variables, for more information.  Each variable
+corresponds to an argument of `configure'; trailing slashes are
+stripped so that expressions such as `${prefix}/lib' expand with only
+one slash between directory names.  See the end of this section for
+details on when and how to use these variables.
+
+ -- Variable: bindir
+     The directory for installing executables that users run.
+
+ -- Variable: datadir
+     The directory for installing idiosyncratic read-only
+     architecture-independent data.
+
+ -- Variable: datarootdir
+     The root of the directory tree for read-only
+     architecture-independent data files.
+
+ -- Variable: docdir
+     The directory for installing documentation files (other than Info
+     and man).
+
+ -- Variable: dvidir
+     The directory for installing documentation files in DVI format.
+
+ -- Variable: exec_prefix
+     The installation prefix for architecture-dependent files.  By
+     default it's the same as `prefix'.  You should avoid installing
+     anything directly to `exec_prefix'.  However, the default value for
+     directories containing architecture-dependent files should be
+     relative to `exec_prefix'.
+
+ -- Variable: htmldir
+     The directory for installing HTML documentation.
+
+ -- Variable: includedir
+     The directory for installing C header files.
+
+ -- Variable: infodir
+     The directory for installing documentation in Info format.
+
+ -- Variable: libdir
+     The directory for installing object code libraries.
+
+ -- Variable: libexecdir
+     The directory for installing executables that other programs run.
+
+ -- Variable: localedir
+     The directory for installing locale-dependent but
+     architecture-independent data, such as message catalogs.  This
+     directory usually has a subdirectory per locale.
+
+ -- Variable: localstatedir
+     The directory for installing modifiable single-machine data.
+
+ -- Variable: mandir
+     The top-level directory for installing documentation in man format.
+
+ -- Variable: oldincludedir
+     The directory for installing C header files for non-GCC compilers.
+
+ -- Variable: pdfdir
+     The directory for installing PDF documentation.
+
+ -- Variable: prefix
+     The common installation prefix for all files.  If `exec_prefix' is
+     defined to a different value, `prefix' is used only for
+     architecture-independent files.
+
+ -- Variable: psdir
+     The directory for installing PostScript documentation.
+
+ -- Variable: sbindir
+     The directory for installing executables that system
+     administrators run.
+
+ -- Variable: sharedstatedir
+     The directory for installing modifiable architecture-independent
+     data.
+
+ -- Variable: sysconfdir
+     The directory for installing read-only single-machine data.
+
+   Most of these variables have values that rely on `prefix' or
+`exec_prefix'.  It is deliberate that the directory output variables
+keep them unexpanded: typically `@datarootdir@' is replaced by
+`${prefix}/share', not `/usr/local/share', and `@datadir@' is replaced
+by `${datarootdir}'.
+
+   This behavior is mandated by the GNU Coding Standards, so that when
+the user runs:
+
+`make'
+     she can still specify a different prefix from the one specified to
+     `configure', in which case, if needed, the package should hard
+     code dependencies corresponding to the make-specified prefix.
+
+`make install'
+     she can specify a different installation location, in which case
+     the package _must_ still depend on the location which was compiled
+     in (i.e., never recompile when `make install' is run).  This is an
+     extremely important feature, as many people may decide to install
+     all the files of a package grouped together, and then install
+     links from the final locations to there.
+
+   In order to support these features, it is essential that
+`datarootdir' remains defined as `${prefix}/share', so that its value
+can be expanded based on the current value of `prefix'.
+
+   A corollary is that you should not use these variables except in
+makefiles.  For instance, instead of trying to evaluate `datadir' in
+`configure' and hard-coding it in makefiles using e.g.,
+`AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([DATADIR], ["$datadir"], [Data directory.])', you
+should add `-DDATADIR='$(datadir)'' to your makefile's definition of
+`CPPFLAGS' (`AM_CPPFLAGS' if you are also using Automake).
+
+   Similarly, you should not rely on `AC_CONFIG_FILES' to replace
+`bindir' and friends in your shell scripts and other files; instead,
+let `make' manage their replacement.  For instance Autoconf ships
+templates of its shell scripts ending with `.in', and uses a makefile
+snippet similar to the following to build scripts like `autoheader' and
+`autom4te':
+
+     edit = sed \
+             -e 's|@bindir[@]|$(bindir)|g' \
+             -e 's|@pkgdatadir[@]|$(pkgdatadir)|g' \
+             -e 's|@prefix[@]|$(prefix)|g'
+
+     autoheader autom4te: Makefile
+             rm -f $@ $@.tmp
+             srcdir=''; \
+               test -f ./$@.in || srcdir=$(srcdir)/; \
+               $(edit) $${srcdir}$@.in >$@.tmp
+             chmod +x $@.tmp
+             chmod a-w $@.tmp
+             mv $@.tmp $@
+
+     autoheader: $(srcdir)/autoheader.in
+     autom4te: $(srcdir)/autom4te.in
+
+   Some details are noteworthy:
+
+`@bindir[@]'
+     The brackets prevent `configure' from replacing `@bindir@' in the
+     Sed expression itself.  Brackets are preferable to a backslash
+     here, since Posix says `\@' is not portable.
+
+`$(bindir)'
+     Don't use `@bindir@'!  Use the matching makefile variable instead.
+
+`$(pkgdatadir)'
+     The example takes advantage of the variable `$(pkgdatadir)'
+     provided by Automake; it is equivalent to `$(datadir)/$(PACKAGE)'.
+
+`/'
+     Don't use `/' in the Sed expressions that replace file names since
+     most likely the variables you use, such as `$(bindir)', contain
+     `/'.  Use a shell metacharacter instead, such as `|'.
+
+special characters
+     File names, file name components, and the value of `VPATH' should
+     not contain shell metacharacters or white space.  *Note Special
+     Chars in Variables::.
+
+dependency on `Makefile'
+     Since `edit' uses values that depend on the configuration specific
+     values (`prefix', etc.) and not only on `VERSION' and so forth,
+     the output depends on `Makefile', not `configure.ac'.
+
+`$@'
+     The main rule is generic, and uses `$@' extensively to avoid the
+     need for multiple copies of the rule.
+
+Separated dependencies and single suffix rules
+     You can't use them!  The above snippet cannot be (portably)
+     rewritten as:
+
+          autoconf autoheader: Makefile
+          .in:
+                  rm -f $@ $@.tmp
+                  $(edit) $< >$@.tmp
+                  chmod +x $@.tmp
+                  mv $@.tmp $@
+
+     *Note Single Suffix Rules::, for details.
+
+`$(srcdir)'
+     Be sure to specify the name of the source directory, otherwise the
+     package won't support separated builds.
+
+   For the more specific installation of Erlang libraries, the
+following variables are defined:

+
+4.8.3 Changed Directory Variables
+---------------------------------
+
+In Autoconf 2.60, the set of directory variables has changed, and the
+defaults of some variables have been adjusted (*note Installation
+Directory Variables::) to changes in the GNU Coding Standards.
+Notably, `datadir', `infodir', and `mandir' are now expressed in terms
+of `datarootdir'.  If you are upgrading from an earlier Autoconf
+version, you may need to adjust your files to ensure that the directory
+variables are substituted correctly (*note Defining Directories::), and
+that a definition of `datarootdir' is in place.  For example, in a
+`Makefile.in', adding
+
+     datarootdir = @datarootdir@
+
+is usually sufficient.  If you use Automake to create `Makefile.in', it
+will add this for you.
+
+   To help with the transition, Autoconf warns about files that seem to
+use `datarootdir' without defining it.  In some cases, it then expands
+the value of `$datarootdir' in substitutions of the directory
+variables.  The following example shows such a warning:
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT
+     AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile])
+     AC_OUTPUT
+     $ cat Makefile.in
+     prefix = @prefix@
+     datadir = @datadir@
+     $ autoconf
+     $ configure
+     configure: creating ./config.status
+     config.status: creating Makefile
+     config.status: WARNING:
+                    Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
+     $ cat Makefile
+     prefix = /usr/local
+     datadir = ${prefix}/share
+
+   Usually one can easily change the file to accommodate both older and
+newer Autoconf releases:
+
+     $ cat Makefile.in
+     prefix = @prefix@
+     datarootdir = @datarootdir@
+     datadir = @datadir@
+     $ configure
+     configure: creating ./config.status
+     config.status: creating Makefile
+     $ cat Makefile
+     prefix = /usr/local
+     datarootdir = ${prefix}/share
+     datadir = ${datarootdir}
+
+   In some cases, however, the checks may not be able to detect that a
+suitable initialization of `datarootdir' is in place, or they may fail
+to detect that such an initialization is necessary in the output file.
+If, after auditing your package, there are still spurious `configure'
+warnings about `datarootdir', you may add the line
+
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_DATAROOTDIR_CHECKED])
+
+to your `configure.ac' to disable the warnings.  This is an exception
+to the usual rule that you should not define a macro whose name begins
+with `AC_' (*note Macro Names::).
+

+
+4.8.4 Build Directories
+-----------------------
+
+You can support compiling a software package for several architectures
+simultaneously from the same copy of the source code.  The object files
+for each architecture are kept in their own directory.
+
+   To support doing this, `make' uses the `VPATH' variable to find the
+files that are in the source directory.  GNU Make can do this.  Most
+other recent `make' programs can do this as well, though they may have
+difficulties and it is often simpler to recommend GNU `make' (*note
+VPATH and Make::).  Older `make' programs do not support `VPATH'; when
+using them, the source code must be in the same directory as the object
+files.
+
+   If you are using GNU Automake, the remaining details in this section
+are already covered for you, based on the contents of your
+`Makefile.am'.  But if you are using Autoconf in isolation, then
+supporting `VPATH' requires the following in your `Makefile.in':
+
+     srcdir = @srcdir@
+     VPATH = @srcdir@
+
+   Do not set `VPATH' to the value of another variable (*note Variables
+listed in VPATH::.
+
+   `configure' substitutes the correct value for `srcdir' when it
+produces `Makefile'.
+
+   Do not use the `make' variable `$<', which expands to the file name
+of the file in the source directory (found with `VPATH'), except in
+implicit rules.  (An implicit rule is one such as `.c.o', which tells
+how to create a `.o' file from a `.c' file.)  Some versions of `make'
+do not set `$<' in explicit rules; they expand it to an empty value.
+
+   Instead, Make command lines should always refer to source files by
+prefixing them with `$(srcdir)/'.  For example:
+
+     time.info: time.texinfo
+             $(MAKEINFO) '$(srcdir)/time.texinfo'
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Automatic Remaking,  Prev: Build Directories,  Up: Makefile Substitutions
+
+4.8.5 Automatic Remaking
+------------------------
+
+You can put rules like the following in the top-level `Makefile.in' for
+a package to automatically update the configuration information when
+you change the configuration files.  This example includes all of the
+optional files, such as `aclocal.m4' and those related to configuration
+header files.  Omit from the `Makefile.in' rules for any of these files
+that your package does not use.
+
+   The `$(srcdir)/' prefix is included because of limitations in the
+`VPATH' mechanism.
+
+   The `stamp-' files are necessary because the timestamps of
+`config.h.in' and `config.h' are not changed if remaking them does not
+change their contents.  This feature avoids unnecessary recompilation.
+You should include the file `stamp-h.in' in your package's
+distribution, so that `make' considers `config.h.in' up to date.  Don't
+use `touch' (*note Limitations of Usual Tools: touch.); instead, use
+`echo' (using `date' would cause needless differences, hence CVS
+conflicts, etc.).
+
+     $(srcdir)/configure: configure.ac aclocal.m4
+             cd '$(srcdir)' && autoconf
+
+     # autoheader might not change config.h.in, so touch a stamp file.
+     $(srcdir)/config.h.in: stamp-h.in
+     $(srcdir)/stamp-h.in: configure.ac aclocal.m4
+             cd '$(srcdir)' && autoheader
+             echo timestamp > '$(srcdir)/stamp-h.in'
+
+     config.h: stamp-h
+     stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+             ./config.status
+
+     Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+             ./config.status
+
+     config.status: configure
+             ./config.status --recheck
+
+(Be careful if you copy these lines directly into your makefile, as you
+need to convert the indented lines to start with the tab character.)
+
+   In addition, you should use
+
+     AC_CONFIG_FILES([stamp-h], [echo timestamp > stamp-h])
+
+so `config.status' ensures that `config.h' is considered up to date.
+*Note Output::, for more information about `AC_OUTPUT'.

+
+4.9 Configuration Header Files
+==============================
+
+When a package contains more than a few tests that define C preprocessor
+symbols, the command lines to pass `-D' options to the compiler can get
+quite long.  This causes two problems.  One is that the `make' output
+is hard to visually scan for errors.  More seriously, the command lines
+can exceed the length limits of some operating systems.  As an
+alternative to passing `-D' options to the compiler, `configure'
+scripts can create a C header file containing `#define' directives.
+The `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro selects this kind of output.  Though it
+can be called anywhere between `AC_INIT' and `AC_OUTPUT', it is
+customary to call it right after `AC_INIT'.
+
+   The package should `#include' the configuration header file before
+any other header files, to prevent inconsistencies in declarations (for
+example, if it redefines `const').
+
+   To provide for VPATH builds, remember to pass the C compiler a `-I.'
+option (or `-I..'; whichever directory contains `config.h').  Even if
+you use `#include "config.h"', the preprocessor searches only the
+directory of the currently read file, i.e., the source directory, not
+the build directory.
+
+   With the appropriate `-I' option, you can use `#include <config.h>'.
+Actually, it's a good habit to use it, because in the rare case when
+the source directory contains another `config.h', the build directory
+should be searched first.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS (HEADER ..., [CMDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+     This macro is one of the instantiating macros; see *note
+     Configuration Actions::.  Make `AC_OUTPUT' create the file(s) in
+     the blank-or-newline-separated list HEADER containing C
+     preprocessor `#define' statements, and replace `@DEFS@' in
+     generated files with `-DHAVE_CONFIG_H' instead of the value of
+     `DEFS'.  The usual name for HEADER is `config.h'.
+
+     If HEADER already exists and its contents are identical to what
+     `AC_OUTPUT' would put in it, it is left alone.  Doing this allows
+     making some changes in the configuration without needlessly causing
+     object files that depend on the header file to be recompiled.
+
+     Usually the input file is named `HEADER.in'; however, you can
+     override the input file name by appending to HEADER a
+     colon-separated list of input files.  For example, you might need
+     to make the input file name acceptable to DOS variants:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h:config.hin])
+
+
+ -- Macro: AH_HEADER
+     This macro is defined as the name of the first declared config
+     header and undefined if no config headers have been declared up to
+     this point.  A third-party macro may, for example, require use of
+     a config header without invoking AC_CONFIG_HEADERS twice, like
+     this:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE(
+                  [m4_ifndef([AH_HEADER], [AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])])])

+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Header Templates,  Next: autoheader Invocation,  Up: Configuration Headers
+
+4.9.1 Configuration Header Templates
+------------------------------------
+
+Your distribution should contain a template file that looks as you want
+the final header file to look, including comments, with `#undef'
+statements which are used as hooks.  For example, suppose your
+`configure.ac' makes these calls:
+
+     AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([conf.h])
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([unistd.h])
+
+Then you could have code like the following in `conf.h.in'.  The
+`conf.h' created by `configure' defines `HAVE_UNISTD_H' to 1, if and
+only if the system has `unistd.h'.
+
+     /* Define as 1 if you have unistd.h.  */
+     #undef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+
+   The format of the template file is stricter than what the C
+preprocessor is required to accept.  A directive line should contain
+only whitespace, `#undef', and `HAVE_UNISTD_H'.  The use of `#define'
+instead of `#undef', or of comments on the same line as `#undef', is
+strongly discouraged.  Each hook should only be listed once.  Other
+preprocessor lines, such as `#ifdef' or `#include', are copied verbatim
+from the template into the generated header.
+
+   Since it is a tedious task to keep a template header up to date, you
+may use `autoheader' to generate it, see *note autoheader Invocation::.
+
+   During the instantiation of the header, each `#undef' line in the
+template file for each symbol defined by `AC_DEFINE' is changed to an
+appropriate `#define'. If the corresponding `AC_DEFINE' has not been
+executed during the `configure' run, the `#undef' line is commented
+out.  (This is important, e.g., for `_POSIX_SOURCE': on many systems,
+it can be implicitly defined by the compiler, and undefining it in the
+header would then break compilation of subsequent headers.)
+
+   Currently, _all_ remaining `#undef' lines in the header template are
+commented out, whether or not there was a corresponding `AC_DEFINE' for
+the macro name; but this behavior is not guaranteed for future releases
+of Autoconf.
+
+   Generally speaking, since you should not use `#define', and you
+cannot guarantee whether a `#undef' directive in the header template
+will be converted to a `#define' or commented out in the generated
+header file, the template file cannot be used for conditional
+definition effects.  Consequently, if you need to use the construct
+
+     #ifdef THIS
+     # define THAT
+     #endif
+
+you must place it outside of the template.  If you absolutely need to
+hook it to the config header itself, please put the directives to a
+separate file, and `#include' that file from the config header
+template.  If you are using `autoheader', you would probably use
+`AH_BOTTOM' to append the `#include' directive.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: autoheader Invocation,  Next: Autoheader Macros,  Prev: Header Templates,  Up: Configuration Headers
+
+4.9.2 Using `autoheader' to Create `config.h.in'
+------------------------------------------------
+
+The `autoheader' program can create a template file of C `#define'
+statements for `configure' to use.  It searches for the first
+invocation of `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' in `configure' sources to determine
+the name of the template.  (If the first call of `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'
+specifies more than one input file name, `autoheader' uses the first
+one.)
+
+   It is recommended that only one input file is used.  If you want to
+append a boilerplate code, it is preferable to use `AH_BOTTOM([#include
+<conf_post.h>])'.  File `conf_post.h' is not processed during the
+configuration then, which make things clearer.  Analogically, `AH_TOP'
+can be used to prepend a boilerplate code.
+
+   In order to do its job, `autoheader' needs you to document all of
+the symbols that you might use.  Typically this is done via an
+`AC_DEFINE' or `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' call whose first argument is a
+literal symbol and whose third argument describes the symbol (*note
+Defining Symbols::).  Alternatively, you can use `AH_TEMPLATE' (*note
+Autoheader Macros::), or you can supply a suitable input file for a
+subsequent configuration header file.  Symbols defined by Autoconf's
+builtin tests are already documented properly; you need to document
+only those that you define yourself.
+
+   You might wonder why `autoheader' is needed: after all, why would
+`configure' need to "patch" a `config.h.in' to produce a `config.h'
+instead of just creating `config.h' from scratch?  Well, when
+everything rocks, the answer is just that we are wasting our time
+maintaining `autoheader': generating `config.h' directly is all that is
+needed.  When things go wrong, however, you'll be thankful for the
+existence of `autoheader'.
+
+   The fact that the symbols are documented is important in order to
+_check_ that `config.h' makes sense.  The fact that there is a
+well-defined list of symbols that should be defined (or not) is also
+important for people who are porting packages to environments where
+`configure' cannot be run: they just have to _fill in the blanks_.
+
+   But let's come back to the point: the invocation of `autoheader'...
+
+   If you give `autoheader' an argument, it uses that file instead of
+`configure.ac' and writes the header file to the standard output
+instead of to `config.h.in'.  If you give `autoheader' an argument of
+`-', it reads the standard input instead of `configure.ac' and writes
+the header file to the standard output.
+
+   `autoheader' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Report processing steps.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+     Remake the template file even if newer than its input files.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Append DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend DIR to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--warnings=CATEGORY'
+`-W CATEGORY'
+     Report the warnings related to CATEGORY (which can actually be a
+     comma separated list).  Current categories include:
+
+    `obsolete'
+          report the uses of obsolete constructs
+
+    `all'
+          report all the warnings
+
+    `none'
+          report none
+
+    `error'
+          treats warnings as errors
+
+    `no-CATEGORY'
+          disable warnings falling into CATEGORY
+

+
+4.9.3 Autoheader Macros
+-----------------------
+
+`autoheader' scans `configure.ac' and figures out which C preprocessor
+symbols it might define.  It knows how to generate templates for
+symbols defined by `AC_CHECK_HEADERS', `AC_CHECK_FUNCS' etc., but if
+you `AC_DEFINE' any additional symbol, you must define a template for
+it.  If there are missing templates, `autoheader' fails with an error
+message.
+
+   The template for a SYMBOL is created by `autoheader' from the
+DESCRIPTION argument to an `AC_DEFINE'; see *note Defining Symbols::.
+
+   For special needs, you can use the following macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AH_TEMPLATE (KEY, DESCRIPTION)
+     Tell `autoheader' to generate a template for KEY.  This macro
+     generates standard templates just like `AC_DEFINE' when a
+     DESCRIPTION is given.
+
+     For example:
+
+          AH_TEMPLATE([CRAY_STACKSEG_END],
+                      [Define to one of _getb67, GETB67, getb67
+                       for Cray-2 and Cray-YMP systems.  This
+                       function is required for alloca.c support
+                       on those systems.])
+
+     generates the following template, with the description properly
+     justified.
+
+          /* Define to one of _getb67, GETB67, getb67 for Cray-2 and
+             Cray-YMP systems.  This function is required for alloca.c
+             support on those systems.  */
+          #undef CRAY_STACKSEG_END
+
+ -- Macro: AH_VERBATIM (KEY, TEMPLATE)
+     Tell `autoheader' to include the TEMPLATE as-is in the header
+     template file.  This TEMPLATE is associated with the KEY, which is
+     used to sort all the different templates and guarantee their
+     uniqueness.  It should be a symbol that can be defined via
+     `AC_DEFINE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AH_TOP (TEXT)
+     Include TEXT at the top of the header template file.
+
+ -- Macro: AH_BOTTOM (TEXT)
+     Include TEXT at the bottom of the header template file.
+
+   Please note that TEXT gets included "verbatim" to the template file,
+not to the resulting config header, so it can easily get mangled when
+the template is processed.  There is rarely a need for something other
+than
+
+     AH_BOTTOM([#include <custom.h>])

+
+4.10 Running Arbitrary Configuration Commands
+=============================================
+
+You can execute arbitrary commands before, during, and after
+`config.status' is run.  The three following macros accumulate the
+commands to run when they are called multiple times.
+`AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' replaces the obsolete macro `AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS';
+see *note Obsolete Macros::, for details.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS (TAG..., [CMDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+     Specify additional shell commands to run at the end of
+     `config.status', and shell commands to initialize any variables
+     from `configure'.  Associate the commands with TAG.  Since
+     typically the CMDS create a file, TAG should naturally be the name
+     of that file.  If needed, the directory hosting TAG is created.
+     This macro is one of the instantiating macros; see *note
+     Configuration Actions::.
+
+     Here is an unrealistic example:
+          fubar=42
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([fubar],
+                             [echo this is extra $fubar, and so on.],
+                             [fubar=$fubar])
+
+     Here is a better one:
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([timestamp], [date >timestamp])
+
+   The following two macros look similar, but in fact they are not of
+the same breed: they are executed directly by `configure', so you
+cannot use `config.status' to rerun them.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE (CMDS)
+     Execute the CMDS right before creating `config.status'.
+
+     This macro presents the last opportunity to call `AC_SUBST',
+     `AC_DEFINE', or `AC_CONFIG_ITEMS' macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_POST (CMDS)
+     Execute the CMDS right after creating `config.status'.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Configuration Links,  Next: Subdirectories,  Prev: Configuration Commands,  Up: Setup
+
+4.11 Creating Configuration Links
+=================================
+
+You may find it convenient to create links whose destinations depend
+upon results of tests.  One can use `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' but the
+creation of relative symbolic links can be delicate when the package is
+built in a directory different from the source directory.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_LINKS (DEST:SOURCE..., [CMDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+     Make `AC_OUTPUT' link each of the existing files SOURCE to the
+     corresponding link name DEST.  Makes a symbolic link if possible,
+     otherwise a hard link if possible, otherwise a copy.  The DEST and
+     SOURCE names should be relative to the top level source or build
+     directory.  This macro is one of the instantiating macros; see
+     *note Configuration Actions::.
+
+     For example, this call:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_LINKS([host.h:config/$machine.h
+                          object.h:config/$obj_format.h])
+
+     creates in the current directory `host.h' as a link to
+     `SRCDIR/config/$machine.h', and `object.h' as a link to
+     `SRCDIR/config/$obj_format.h'.
+
+     The tempting value `.' for DEST is invalid: it makes it impossible
+     for `config.status' to guess the links to establish.
+
+     One can then run:
+          ./config.status host.h object.h
+     to create the links.

+
+4.12 Configuring Other Packages in Subdirectories
+=================================================
+
+In most situations, calling `AC_OUTPUT' is sufficient to produce
+makefiles in subdirectories.  However, `configure' scripts that control
+more than one independent package can use `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS' to run
+`configure' scripts for other packages in subdirectories.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS (DIR ...)
+     Make `AC_OUTPUT' run `configure' in each subdirectory DIR in the
+     given blank-or-newline-separated list.  Each DIR should be a
+     literal, i.e., please do not use:
+
+          if test "x$package_foo_enabled" = xyes; then
+            my_subdirs="$my_subdirs foo"
+          fi
+          AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([$my_subdirs])
+
+     because this prevents `./configure --help=recursive' from
+     displaying the options of the package `foo'.  Instead, you should
+     write:
+
+          if test "x$package_foo_enabled" = xyes; then
+            AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([foo])
+          fi
+
+     If a given DIR is not found at `configure' run time, a warning is
+     reported; if the subdirectory is optional, write:
+
+          if test -d "$srcdir/foo"; then
+            AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([foo])
+          fi
+
+     If a given DIR contains `configure.gnu', it is run instead of
+     `configure'.  This is for packages that might use a non-Autoconf
+     script `Configure', which can't be called through a wrapper
+     `configure' since it would be the same file on case-insensitive
+     file systems.  Likewise, if a DIR contains `configure.in' but no
+     `configure', the Cygnus `configure' script found by
+     `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR' is used.
+
+     The subdirectory `configure' scripts are given the same command
+     line options that were given to this `configure' script, with minor
+     changes if needed, which include:
+
+        - adjusting a relative name for the cache file;
+
+        - adjusting a relative name for the source directory;
+
+        - propagating the current value of `$prefix', including if it
+          was defaulted, and if the default values of the top level and
+          of the subdirectory `configure' differ.
+
+     This macro also sets the output variable `subdirs' to the list of
+     directories `DIR ...'.  Make rules can use this variable to
+     determine which subdirectories to recurse into.
+
+     This macro may be called multiple times.

+
+4.13 Default Prefix
+===================
+
+By default, `configure' sets the prefix for files it installs to
+`/usr/local'.  The user of `configure' can select a different prefix
+using the `--prefix' and `--exec-prefix' options.  There are two ways
+to change the default: when creating `configure', and when running it.
+
+   Some software packages might want to install in a directory other
+than `/usr/local' by default.  To accomplish that, use the
+`AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT' macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT (PREFIX)
+     Set the default installation prefix to PREFIX instead of
+     `/usr/local'.
+
+   It may be convenient for users to have `configure' guess the
+installation prefix from the location of a related program that they
+have already installed.  If you wish to do that, you can call
+`AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM (PROGRAM)
+     If the user did not specify an installation prefix (using the
+     `--prefix' option), guess a value for it by looking for PROGRAM in
+     `PATH', the way the shell does.  If PROGRAM is found, set the
+     prefix to the parent of the directory containing PROGRAM, else
+     default the prefix as described above (`/usr/local' or
+     `AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT').  For example, if PROGRAM is `gcc' and the
+     `PATH' contains `/usr/local/gnu/bin/gcc', set the prefix to
+     `/usr/local/gnu'.

+5.1 Common Behavior
+===================
+
+Much effort has been expended to make Autoconf easy to learn.  The most
+obvious way to reach this goal is simply to enforce standard interfaces
+and behaviors, avoiding exceptions as much as possible.  Because of
+history and inertia, unfortunately, there are still too many exceptions
+in Autoconf; nevertheless, this section describes some of the common
+rules.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Standard Symbols::            Symbols defined by the macros
+* Default Includes::            Includes used by the generic macros
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Standard Symbols,  Next: Default Includes,  Up: Common Behavior
+
+5.1.1 Standard Symbols
+----------------------
+
+All the generic macros that `AC_DEFINE' a symbol as a result of their
+test transform their ARGUMENT values to a standard alphabet.  First,
+ARGUMENT is converted to upper case and any asterisks (`*') are each
+converted to `P'.  Any remaining characters that are not alphanumeric
+are converted to underscores.
+
+   For instance,
+
+     AC_CHECK_TYPES([struct $Expensive*])
+
+defines the symbol `HAVE_STRUCT__EXPENSIVEP' if the check succeeds.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Default Includes,  Prev: Standard Symbols,  Up: Common Behavior
+
+5.1.2 Default Includes
+----------------------
+
+Several tests depend upon a set of header files.  Since these headers
+are not universally available, tests actually have to provide a set of
+protected includes, such as:
+
+     #ifdef TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME
+     # include <sys/time.h>
+     # include <time.h>
+     #else
+     # ifdef HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
+     #  include <sys/time.h>
+     # else
+     #  include <time.h>
+     # endif
+     #endif
+
+Unless you know exactly what you are doing, you should avoid using
+unconditional includes, and check the existence of the headers you
+include beforehand (*note Header Files::).
+
+   Most generic macros use the following macro to provide the default
+set of includes:
+
+ -- Macro: AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT ([INCLUDE-DIRECTIVES])
+     Expand to INCLUDE-DIRECTIVES if defined, otherwise to:
+
+          #include <stdio.h>
+          #ifdef HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H
+          # include <sys/types.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_SYS_STAT_H
+          # include <sys/stat.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef STDC_HEADERS
+          # include <stdlib.h>
+          # include <stddef.h>
+          #else
+          # ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H
+          #  include <stdlib.h>
+          # endif
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_STRING_H
+          # if !defined STDC_HEADERS && defined HAVE_MEMORY_H
+          #  include <memory.h>
+          # endif
+          # include <string.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_STRINGS_H
+          # include <strings.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_INTTYPES_H
+          # include <inttypes.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_STDINT_H
+          # include <stdint.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+          # include <unistd.h>
+          #endif
+
+     If the default includes are used, then check for the presence of
+     these headers and their compatibility, i.e., you don't need to run
+     `AC_HEADER_STDC', nor check for `stdlib.h' etc.
+
+     These headers are checked for in the same order as they are
+     included.  For instance, on some systems `string.h' and
+     `strings.h' both exist, but conflict.  Then `HAVE_STRING_H' is
+     defined, not `HAVE_STRINGS_H'.

+5.2 Alternative Programs
+========================
+
+These macros check for the presence or behavior of particular programs.
+They are used to choose between several alternative programs and to
+decide what to do once one has been chosen.  If there is no macro
+specifically defined to check for a program you need, and you don't need
+to check for any special properties of it, then you can use one of the
+general program-check macros.

+
+5.2.1 Particular Program Checks
+-------------------------------
+
+These macros check for particular programs--whether they exist, and in
+some cases whether they support certain features.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_AWK
+     Check for `gawk', `mawk', `nawk', and `awk', in that order, and
+     set output variable `AWK' to the first one that is found.  It
+     tries `gawk' first because that is reported to be the best
+     implementation.  The result can be overridden by setting the
+     variable `AWK' or the cache variable `ac_cv_prog_AWK'.
+
+     Using this macro is sufficient to avoid the pitfalls of traditional
+     `awk' (*note Limitations of Usual Tools: awk.).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_GREP
+     Look for the best available `grep' or `ggrep' that accepts the
+     longest input lines possible, and that supports multiple `-e'
+     options.  Set the output variable `GREP' to whatever is chosen.
+     *Note Limitations of Usual Tools: grep, for more information about
+     portability problems with the `grep' command family.  The result
+     can be overridden by setting the `GREP' variable and is cached in
+     the `ac_cv_path_GREP' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_EGREP
+     Check whether `$GREP -E' works, or else look for the best available
+     `egrep' or `gegrep' that accepts the longest input lines possible.
+     Set the output variable `EGREP' to whatever is chosen.  The result
+     can be overridden by setting the `EGREP' variable and is cached in
+     the `ac_cv_path_EGREP' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_FGREP
+     Check whether `$GREP -F' works, or else look for the best available
+     `fgrep' or `gfgrep' that accepts the longest input lines possible.
+     Set the output variable `FGREP' to whatever is chosen.  The result
+     can be overridden by setting the `FGREP' variable and is cached in
+     the `ac_cv_path_FGREP' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_INSTALL
+     Set output variable `INSTALL' to the name of a BSD-compatible
+     `install' program, if one is found in the current `PATH'.
+     Otherwise, set `INSTALL' to `DIR/install-sh -c', checking the
+     directories specified to `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR' (or its default
+     directories) to determine DIR (*note Output::).  Also set the
+     variables `INSTALL_PROGRAM' and `INSTALL_SCRIPT' to `${INSTALL}'
+     and `INSTALL_DATA' to `${INSTALL} -m 644'.
+
+     `@INSTALL@' is special, as its value may vary for different
+     configuration files.
+
+     This macro screens out various instances of `install' known not to
+     work.  It prefers to find a C program rather than a shell script,
+     for speed.  Instead of `install-sh', it can also use `install.sh',
+     but that name is obsolete because some `make' programs have a rule
+     that creates `install' from it if there is no makefile.  Further,
+     this macro requires `install' to be able to install multiple files
+     into a target directory in a single invocation.
+
+     Autoconf comes with a copy of `install-sh' that you can use.  If
+     you use `AC_PROG_INSTALL', you must include either `install-sh' or
+     `install.sh' in your distribution; otherwise `configure' produces
+     an error message saying it can't find them--even if the system
+     you're on has a good `install' program.  This check is a safety
+     measure to prevent you from accidentally leaving that file out,
+     which would prevent your package from installing on systems that
+     don't have a BSD-compatible `install' program.
+
+     If you need to use your own installation program because it has
+     features not found in standard `install' programs, there is no
+     reason to use `AC_PROG_INSTALL'; just put the file name of your
+     program into your `Makefile.in' files.
+
+     The result of the test can be overridden by setting the variable
+     `INSTALL' or the cache variable `ac_cv_path_install'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
+     Set output variable `MKDIR_P' to a program that ensures that for
+     each argument, a directory named by this argument exists, creating
+     it and its parent directories if needed, and without race
+     conditions when two instances of the program attempt to make the
+     same directory at nearly the same time.
+
+     This macro uses the `mkdir -p' command if possible.  Otherwise, it
+     falls back on invoking `install-sh' with the `-d' option, so your
+     package should contain `install-sh' as described under
+     `AC_PROG_INSTALL'.  An `install-sh' file that predates Autoconf
+     2.60 or Automake 1.10 is vulnerable to race conditions, so if you
+     want to support parallel installs from different packages into the
+     same directory you need to make sure you have an up-to-date
+     `install-sh'.  In particular, be careful about using `autoreconf
+     -if' if your Automake predates Automake 1.10.
+
+     This macro is related to the `AS_MKDIR_P' macro (*note Programming
+     in M4sh::), but it sets an output variable intended for use in
+     other files, whereas `AS_MKDIR_P' is intended for use in scripts
+     like `configure'.  Also, `AS_MKDIR_P' does not accept options, but
+     `MKDIR_P' supports the `-m' option, e.g., a makefile might invoke
+     `$(MKDIR_P) -m 0 dir' to create an inaccessible directory, and
+     conversely a makefile should use `$(MKDIR_P) -- $(FOO)' if FOO
+     might yield a value that begins with `-'.  Finally, `AS_MKDIR_P'
+     does not check for race condition vulnerability, whereas
+     `AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' does.
+
+     `@MKDIR_P@' is special, as its value may vary for different
+     configuration files.
+
+     The result of the test can be overridden by setting the variable
+     `MKDIR_P' or the cache variable `ac_cv_path_mkdir'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_LEX
+     If `flex' is found, set output variable `LEX' to `flex' and
+     `LEXLIB' to `-lfl', if that library is in a standard place.
+     Otherwise set `LEX' to `lex' and `LEXLIB' to `-ll', if found.  If
+     neither variant is available, set `LEX' to `:'; for packages that
+     ship the generated `file.yy.c' alongside the source `file.l', this
+     default allows users without a lexer generator to still build the
+     package even if the timestamp for `file.l' is inadvertently
+     changed.
+
+     Define `YYTEXT_POINTER' if `yytext' defaults to `char *' instead
+     of to `char []'.  Also set output variable `LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT' to
+     the base of the file name that the lexer generates; usually
+     `lex.yy', but sometimes something else.  These results vary
+     according to whether `lex' or `flex' is being used.
+
+     You are encouraged to use Flex in your sources, since it is both
+     more pleasant to use than plain Lex and the C source it produces
+     is portable.  In order to ensure portability, however, you must
+     either provide a function `yywrap' or, if you don't use it (e.g.,
+     your scanner has no `#include'-like feature), simply include a
+     `%noyywrap' statement in the scanner's source.  Once this done,
+     the scanner is portable (unless _you_ felt free to use nonportable
+     constructs) and does not depend on any library.  In this case, and
+     in this case only, it is suggested that you use this Autoconf
+     snippet:
+
+          AC_PROG_LEX
+          if test "x$LEX" != xflex; then
+            LEX="$SHELL $missing_dir/missing flex"
+            AC_SUBST([LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT], [lex.yy])
+            AC_SUBST([LEXLIB], [''])
+          fi
+
+     The shell script `missing' can be found in the Automake
+     distribution.
+
+     Remember that the user may have supplied an alternate location in
+     `LEX', so if Flex is required, it is better to check that the user
+     provided something sufficient by parsing the output of `$LEX
+     --version' than by simply relying on `test "x$LEX" = xflex'.
+
+     To ensure backward compatibility, Automake's `AM_PROG_LEX' invokes
+     (indirectly) this macro twice, which causes an annoying but benign
+     "`AC_PROG_LEX' invoked multiple times" warning.  Future versions
+     of Automake will fix this issue; meanwhile, just ignore this
+     message.
+
+     As part of running the test, this macro may delete any file in the
+     configuration directory named `lex.yy.c' or `lexyy.c'.
+
+     The result of this test can be influenced by setting the variable
+     `LEX' or the cache variable `ac_cv_prog_LEX'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_LN_S
+     If `ln -s' works on the current file system (the operating system
+     and file system support symbolic links), set the output variable
+     `LN_S' to `ln -s'; otherwise, if `ln' works, set `LN_S' to `ln',
+     and otherwise set it to `cp -pR'.
+
+     If you make a link in a directory other than the current
+     directory, its meaning depends on whether `ln' or `ln -s' is used.
+     To safely create links using `$(LN_S)', either find out which form
+     is used and adjust the arguments, or always invoke `ln' in the
+     directory where the link is to be created.
+
+     In other words, it does not work to do:
+          $(LN_S) foo /x/bar
+
+     Instead, do:
+
+          (cd /x && $(LN_S) foo bar)
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_RANLIB
+     Set output variable `RANLIB' to `ranlib' if `ranlib' is found, and
+     otherwise to `:' (do nothing).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_SED
+     Set output variable `SED' to a Sed implementation that conforms to
+     Posix and does not have arbitrary length limits.  Report an error
+     if no acceptable Sed is found.  *Note Limitations of Usual Tools:
+     sed, for more information about portability problems with Sed.
+
+     The result of this test can be overridden by setting the `SED'
+     variable and is cached in the `ac_cv_path_SED' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_YACC
+     If `bison' is found, set output variable `YACC' to `bison -y'.
+     Otherwise, if `byacc' is found, set `YACC' to `byacc'.  Otherwise
+     set `YACC' to `yacc'.  The result of this test can be influenced
+     by setting the variable `YACC' or the cache variable
+     `ac_cv_prog_YACC'.

+
+5.2.2 Generic Program and File Checks
+-------------------------------------
+
+These macros are used to find programs not covered by the "particular"
+test macros.  If you need to check the behavior of a program as well as
+find out whether it is present, you have to write your own test for it
+(*note Writing Tests::).  By default, these macros use the environment
+variable `PATH'.  If you need to check for a program that might not be
+in the user's `PATH', you can pass a modified path to use instead, like
+this:
+
+     AC_PATH_PROG([INETD], [inetd], [/usr/libexec/inetd],
+                  [$PATH$PATH_SEPARATOR/usr/libexec$PATH_SEPARATOR]dnl
+     [/usr/sbin$PATH_SEPARATOR/usr/etc$PATH_SEPARATOR/etc])
+
+   You are strongly encouraged to declare the VARIABLE passed to
+`AC_CHECK_PROG' etc. as precious.  *Note Setting Output Variables::,
+`AC_ARG_VAR', for more details.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_PROG (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR, VALUE-IF-FOUND,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'], [REJECT])
+     Check whether program PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR exists in PATH.  If it is
+     found, set VARIABLE to VALUE-IF-FOUND, otherwise to
+     VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND, if given.  Always pass over REJECT (an
+     absolute file name) even if it is the first found in the search
+     path; in that case, set VARIABLE using the absolute file name of
+     the PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR found that is not REJECT.  If VARIABLE was
+     already set, do nothing.  Calls `AC_SUBST' for VARIABLE.  The
+     result of this test can be overridden by setting the VARIABLE
+     variable or the cache variable `ac_cv_prog_VARIABLE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_PROGS (VARIABLE, PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Check for each program in the blank-separated list
+     PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR existing in the PATH.  If one is found, set
+     VARIABLE to the name of that program.  Otherwise, continue
+     checking the next program in the list.  If none of the programs in
+     the list are found, set VARIABLE to VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND; if
+     VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND is not specified, the value of VARIABLE is not
+     changed.  Calls `AC_SUBST' for VARIABLE.  The result of this test
+     can be overridden by setting the VARIABLE variable or the cache
+     variable `ac_cv_prog_VARIABLE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_PROG', but first looks for PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR with a
+     prefix of the target type as determined by `AC_CANONICAL_TARGET',
+     followed by a dash (*note Canonicalizing::).  If the tool cannot
+     be found with a prefix, and if the build and target types are
+     equal, then it is also searched for without a prefix.
+
+     As noted in *note Specifying Target Triplets::, the target is
+     rarely specified, because most of the time it is the same as the
+     host: it is the type of system for which any compiler tool in the
+     package produces code.  What this macro looks for is, for example,
+     _a tool (assembler, linker, etc.) that the compiler driver (`gcc'
+     for the GNU C Compiler) uses to produce objects, archives or
+     executables_.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TOOL (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_PROG', but first looks for PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR with a
+     prefix of the host type as specified by `--host', followed by a
+     dash.  For example, if the user runs `configure --build=x86_64-gnu
+     --host=i386-gnu', then this call:
+          AC_CHECK_TOOL([RANLIB], [ranlib], [:])
+     sets `RANLIB' to `i386-gnu-ranlib' if that program exists in PATH,
+     or otherwise to `ranlib' if that program exists in PATH, or to `:'
+     if neither program exists.
+
+     When cross-compiling, this macro will issue a warning if no program
+     prefixed with the host type could be found.  For more information,
+     see *note Specifying Target Triplets::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS (VARIABLE, PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL', each of the tools in the list
+     PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR are checked with a prefix of the target type as
+     determined by `AC_CANONICAL_TARGET', followed by a dash (*note
+     Canonicalizing::).  If none of the tools can be found with a
+     prefix, and if the build and target types are equal, then the
+     first one without a prefix is used.  If a tool is found, set
+     VARIABLE to the name of that program.  If none of the tools in the
+     list are found, set VARIABLE to VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND; if
+     VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND is not specified, the value of VARIABLE is not
+     changed.  Calls `AC_SUBST' for VARIABLE.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TOOLS (VARIABLE, PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_TOOL', each of the tools in the list
+     PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR are checked with a prefix of the host type as
+     determined by `AC_CANONICAL_HOST', followed by a dash (*note
+     Canonicalizing::).  If none of the tools can be found with a
+     prefix, then the first one without a prefix is used.  If a tool is
+     found, set VARIABLE to the name of that program.  If none of the
+     tools in the list are found, set VARIABLE to VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND; if
+     VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND is not specified, the value of VARIABLE is not
+     changed.  Calls `AC_SUBST' for VARIABLE.
+
+     When cross-compiling, this macro will issue a warning if no program
+     prefixed with the host type could be found.  For more information,
+     see *note Specifying Target Triplets::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_PROG (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_PROG', but set VARIABLE to the absolute name of
+     PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR if found.  The result of this test can be
+     overridden by setting the VARIABLE variable.  A positive result of
+     this test is cached in the `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_PROGS (VARIABLE, PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_PROGS', but if any of PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR are found,
+     set VARIABLE to the absolute name of the program found.  The
+     result of this test can be overridden by setting the VARIABLE
+     variable.  A positive result of this test is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_PROGS_FEATURE_CHECK (VARIABLE, PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          FEATURE-TEST, [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  If VARIABLE is not
+     empty, then set the cache variable `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE' to its
+     value.  Otherwise, check for each program in the blank-separated
+     list PROGS-TO-CHECK-FOR existing in PATH.  For each program found,
+     execute FEATURE-TEST with `ac_path_VARIABLE' set to the absolute
+     name of the candidate program.  If no invocation of FEATURE-TEST
+     sets the shell variable `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE', then
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is executed.  FEATURE-TEST will be run even
+     when `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE' is set, to provide the ability to
+     choose a better candidate found later in PATH; to accept the
+     current setting and bypass all further checks, FEATURE-TEST can
+     execute `ac_path_VARIABLE_found=:'.
+
+     Note that this macro has some subtle differences from
+     `AC_CHECK_PROGS'.  It is designed to be run inside `AC_CACHE_VAL',
+     therefore, it should have no side effects.  In particular,
+     VARIABLE is not set to the final value of `ac_cv_path_VARIABLE',
+     nor is `AC_SUBST' automatically run.  Also, on failure, any action
+     can be performed, whereas `AC_CHECK_PROGS' only performs
+     `VARIABLE=VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND'.
+
+     Here is an example, similar to what Autoconf uses in its own
+     configure script.  It will search for an implementation of `m4'
+     that supports the `indir' builtin, even if it goes by the name
+     `gm4' or is not the first implementation on `PATH'.
+
+          AC_CACHE_CHECK([for m4 that supports indir], [ac_cv_path_M4],
+            [AC_PATH_PROGS_FEATURE_CHECK([M4], [m4 gm4],
+              [[m4out=`echo 'changequote([,])indir([divnum])' | $ac_path_M4`
+                test "x$m4out" = x0 \
+                && ac_cv_path_M4=$ac_path_M4 ac_path_M4_found=:]],
+              [AC_MSG_ERROR([could not find m4 that supports indir])])])
+          AC_SUBST([M4], [$ac_cv_path_M4])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL', but set VARIABLE to the absolute name
+     of the program if it is found.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_TOOL (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR,
+          [VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Like `AC_CHECK_TOOL', but set VARIABLE to the absolute name of the
+     program if it is found.
+
+     When cross-compiling, this macro will issue a warning if no program
+     prefixed with the host type could be found.  For more information,

+5.3 Files
+=========
+
+You might also need to check for the existence of files.  Before using
+these macros, ask yourself whether a runtime test might not be a better
+solution.  Be aware that, like most Autoconf macros, they test a feature
+of the host machine, and therefore, they die when cross-compiling.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_FILE (FILE, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     Check whether file FILE exists on the native system.  If it is
+     found, execute ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise do ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND,
+     if given.  The result of this test is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_file_FILE' variable, with characters not suitable for a
+     variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_FILES (FILES, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     Executes `AC_CHECK_FILE' once for each file listed in FILES.
+     Additionally, defines `HAVE_FILE' (*note Standard Symbols::) for
+     each file found.  The results of each test are cached in the
+     `ac_cv_file_FILE' variable, with characters not suitable for a
+     variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Libraries,  Next: Library Functions,  Prev: Files,  Up: Existing Tests
+
+5.4 Library Files
+=================
+
+The following macros check for the presence of certain C, C++, Fortran,
+or Go library archive files.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_LIB (LIBRARY, FUNCTION, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [OTHER-LIBRARIES])
+     Test whether the library LIBRARY is available by trying to link a
+     test program that calls function FUNCTION with the library.
+     FUNCTION should be a function provided by the library.  Use the
+     base name of the library; e.g., to check for `-lmp', use `mp' as
+     the LIBRARY argument.
+
+     ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if the link
+     with the library succeeds; ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of shell
+     commands to run if the link fails.  If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not
+     specified, the default action prepends `-lLIBRARY' to `LIBS' and
+     defines `HAVE_LIBLIBRARY' (in all capitals).  This macro is
+     intended to support building `LIBS' in a right-to-left
+     (least-dependent to most-dependent) fashion such that library
+     dependencies are satisfied as a natural side effect of consecutive
+     tests.  Linkers are sensitive to library ordering so the order in
+     which `LIBS' is generated is important to reliable detection of
+     libraries.
+
+     If linking with LIBRARY results in unresolved symbols that would
+     be resolved by linking with additional libraries, give those
+     libraries as the OTHER-LIBRARIES argument, separated by spaces:
+     e.g., `-lXt -lX11'.  Otherwise, this macro may fail to detect that
+     LIBRARY is present, because linking the test program can fail with
+     unresolved symbols.  The OTHER-LIBRARIES argument should be
+     limited to cases where it is desirable to test for one library in
+     the presence of another that is not already in `LIBS'.
+
+     `AC_CHECK_LIB' requires some care in usage, and should be avoided
+     in some common cases.  Many standard functions like `gethostbyname'
+     appear in the standard C library on some hosts, and in special
+     libraries like `nsl' on other hosts.  On some hosts the special
+     libraries contain variant implementations that you may not want to
+     use.  These days it is normally better to use
+     `AC_SEARCH_LIBS([gethostbyname], [nsl])' instead of
+     `AC_CHECK_LIB([nsl], [gethostbyname])'.
+
+     The result of this test is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_lib_LIBRARY_FUNCTION' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SEARCH_LIBS (FUNCTION, SEARCH-LIBS, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [OTHER-LIBRARIES])
+     Search for a library defining FUNCTION if it's not already
+     available.  This equates to calling
+     `AC_LINK_IFELSE([AC_LANG_CALL([], [FUNCTION])])' first with no
+     libraries, then for each library listed in SEARCH-LIBS.
+
+     Prepend `-lLIBRARY' to `LIBS' for the first library found to
+     contain FUNCTION, and run ACTION-IF-FOUND.  If the function is not
+     found, run ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.
+
+     If linking with LIBRARY results in unresolved symbols that would
+     be resolved by linking with additional libraries, give those
+     libraries as the OTHER-LIBRARIES argument, separated by spaces:
+     e.g., `-lXt -lX11'.  Otherwise, this macro fails to detect that
+     FUNCTION is present, because linking the test program always fails
+     with unresolved symbols.
+
+     The result of this test is cached in the `ac_cv_search_FUNCTION'
+     variable as `none required' if FUNCTION is already available, as
+     `no' if no library containing FUNCTION was found, otherwise as the
+     `-lLIBRARY' option that needs to be prepended to `LIBS'.

+
+The following macros check for particular C library functions.  If
+there is no macro specifically defined to check for a function you need,
+and you don't need to check for any special properties of it, then you
+can use one of the general function-check macros.

+
+5.5.1 Portability of C Functions
+--------------------------------
+
+Most usual functions can either be missing, or be buggy, or be limited
+on some architectures.  This section tries to make an inventory of these
+portability issues.  By definition, this list always requires
+additions.  A much more complete list is maintained by the Gnulib
+project (*note Gnulib::), covering *note Current Posix Functions:
+(gnulib)Function Substitutes, *note Legacy Functions: (gnulib)Legacy
+Function Substitutes, and *note Glibc Functions: (gnulib)Glibc Function
+Substitutes.  Please help us keep the gnulib list as complete as
+possible.
+
+`exit'
+     On ancient hosts, `exit' returned `int'.  This is because `exit'
+     predates `void', and there was a long tradition of it returning
+     `int'.
+
+     On current hosts, the problem more likely is that `exit' is not
+     declared, due to C++ problems of some sort or another.  For this
+     reason we suggest that test programs not invoke `exit', but return
+     from `main' instead.
+
+`free'
+     The C standard says a call `free (NULL)' does nothing, but some
+     old systems don't support this (e.g., NextStep).
+
+`isinf'
+`isnan'
+     The C99 standard says that `isinf' and `isnan' are macros.  On
+     some systems just macros are available (e.g., HP-UX and Solaris
+     10), on some systems both macros and functions (e.g., glibc
+     2.3.2), and on some systems only functions (e.g., IRIX 6 and
+     Solaris 9).  In some cases these functions are declared in
+     nonstandard headers like `<sunmath.h>' and defined in non-default
+     libraries like `-lm' or `-lsunmath'.
+
+     The C99 `isinf' and `isnan' macros work correctly with `long
+     double' arguments, but pre-C99 systems that use functions
+     typically assume `double' arguments.  On such a system, `isinf'
+     incorrectly returns true for a finite `long double' argument that
+     is outside the range of `double'.
+
+     The best workaround for these issues is to use gnulib modules
+     `isinf' and `isnan' (*note Gnulib::).  But a lighter weight
+     solution involves code like the following.
+
+          #include <math.h>
+
+          #ifndef isnan
+          # define isnan(x) \
+              (sizeof (x) == sizeof (long double) ? isnan_ld (x) \
+               : sizeof (x) == sizeof (double) ? isnan_d (x) \
+               : isnan_f (x))
+          static inline int isnan_f  (float       x) { return x != x; }
+          static inline int isnan_d  (double      x) { return x != x; }
+          static inline int isnan_ld (long double x) { return x != x; }
+          #endif
+
+          #ifndef isinf
+          # define isinf(x) \
+              (sizeof (x) == sizeof (long double) ? isinf_ld (x) \
+               : sizeof (x) == sizeof (double) ? isinf_d (x) \
+               : isinf_f (x))
+          static inline int isinf_f  (float       x)
+          { return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); }
+          static inline int isinf_d  (double      x)
+          { return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); }
+          static inline int isinf_ld (long double x)
+          { return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); }
+          #endif
+
+     Use `AC_C_INLINE' (*note C Compiler::) so that this code works on
+     compilers that lack the `inline' keyword.  Some optimizing
+     compilers mishandle these definitions, but systems with that bug
+     typically have many other floating point corner-case compliance
+     problems anyway, so it's probably not worth worrying about.
+
+`malloc'
+     The C standard says a call `malloc (0)' is implementation
+     dependent.  It can return either `NULL' or a new non-null pointer.
+     The latter is more common (e.g., the GNU C Library) but is by no
+     means universal.  `AC_FUNC_MALLOC' can be used to insist on
+     non-`NULL' (*note Particular Functions::).
+
+`putenv'
+     Posix prefers `setenv' to `putenv'; among other things, `putenv'
+     is not required of all Posix implementations, but `setenv' is.
+
+     Posix specifies that `putenv' puts the given string directly in
+     `environ', but some systems make a copy of it instead (e.g., glibc
+     2.0, or BSD).  And when a copy is made, `unsetenv' might not free
+     it, causing a memory leak (e.g., FreeBSD 4).
+
+     On some systems `putenv ("FOO")' removes `FOO' from the
+     environment, but this is not standard usage and it dumps core on
+     some systems (e.g., AIX).
+
+     On MinGW, a call `putenv ("FOO=")' removes `FOO' from the
+     environment, rather than inserting it with an empty value.
+
+`realloc'
+     The C standard says a call `realloc (NULL, size)' is equivalent to
+     `malloc (size)', but some old systems don't support this (e.g.,
+     NextStep).
+
+`signal' handler
+     Normally `signal' takes a handler function with a return type of
+     `void', but some old systems required `int' instead.  Any actual
+     `int' value returned is not used; this is only a difference in the
+     function prototype demanded.
+
+     All systems we know of in current use return `void'.  The `int'
+     was to support K&R C, where of course `void' is not available.
+     The obsolete macro `AC_TYPE_SIGNAL' (*note AC_TYPE_SIGNAL::) can
+     be used to establish the correct type in all cases.
+
+     In most cases, it is more robust to use `sigaction' when it is
+     available, rather than `signal'.
+
+`snprintf'
+     The C99 standard says that if the output array isn't big enough
+     and if no other errors occur, `snprintf' and `vsnprintf' truncate
+     the output and return the number of bytes that ought to have been
+     produced.  Some older systems return the truncated length (e.g.,
+     GNU C Library 2.0.x or IRIX 6.5), some a negative value (e.g.,
+     earlier GNU C Library versions), and some the buffer length
+     without truncation (e.g., 32-bit Solaris 7).  Also, some buggy
+     older systems ignore the length and overrun the buffer (e.g.,
+     64-bit Solaris 7).
+
+`sprintf'
+     The C standard says `sprintf' and `vsprintf' return the number of
+     bytes written.  On some ancient systems (SunOS 4 for instance)
+     they return the buffer pointer instead, but these no longer need
+     to be worried about.
+
+`sscanf'
+     On various old systems, e.g., HP-UX 9, `sscanf' requires that its
+     input string be writable (though it doesn't actually change it).
+     This can be a problem when using `gcc' since it normally puts
+     constant strings in read-only memory (*note Incompatibilities of
+     GCC: (gcc)Incompatibilities.).  Apparently in some cases even
+     having format strings read-only can be a problem.
+
+`strerror_r'
+     Posix specifies that `strerror_r' returns an `int', but many
+     systems (e.g., GNU C Library version 2.2.4) provide a different
+     version returning a `char *'.  `AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R' can detect
+     which is in use (*note Particular Functions::).
+
+`strnlen'
+     AIX 4.3 provides a broken version which produces the following
+     results:
+
+          strnlen ("foobar", 0) = 0
+          strnlen ("foobar", 1) = 3
+          strnlen ("foobar", 2) = 2
+          strnlen ("foobar", 3) = 1
+          strnlen ("foobar", 4) = 0
+          strnlen ("foobar", 5) = 6
+          strnlen ("foobar", 6) = 6
+          strnlen ("foobar", 7) = 6
+          strnlen ("foobar", 8) = 6
+          strnlen ("foobar", 9) = 6
+
+`sysconf'
+     `_SC_PAGESIZE' is standard, but some older systems (e.g., HP-UX 9)
+     have `_SC_PAGE_SIZE' instead.  This can be tested with `#ifdef'.
+
+`unlink'
+     The Posix spec says that `unlink' causes the given file to be
+     removed only after there are no more open file handles for it.
+     Some non-Posix hosts have trouble with this requirement, though,
+     and some DOS variants even corrupt the file system.
+
+`unsetenv'
+     On MinGW, `unsetenv' is not available, but a variable `FOO' can be
+     removed with a call `putenv ("FOO=")', as described under `putenv'
+     above.
+
+`va_copy'
+     The C99 standard provides `va_copy' for copying `va_list'
+     variables.  It may be available in older environments too, though
+     possibly as `__va_copy' (e.g., `gcc' in strict pre-C99 mode).
+     These can be tested with `#ifdef'.  A fallback to `memcpy (&dst,
+     &src, sizeof (va_list))' gives maximum portability.
+
+`va_list'
+     `va_list' is not necessarily just a pointer.  It can be a `struct'
+     (e.g., `gcc' on Alpha), which means `NULL' is not portable.  Or it
+     can be an array (e.g., `gcc' in some PowerPC configurations),
+     which means as a function parameter it can be effectively
+     call-by-reference and library routines might modify the value back
+     in the caller (e.g., `vsnprintf' in the GNU C Library 2.1).
+
+Signed `>>'
+     Normally the C `>>' right shift of a signed type replicates the
+     high bit, giving a so-called "arithmetic" shift.  But care should
+     be taken since Standard C doesn't require that behavior.  On those
+     few processors without a native arithmetic shift (for instance Cray
+     vector systems) zero bits may be shifted in, the same as a shift
+     of an unsigned type.
+
+Integer `/'
+     C divides signed integers by truncating their quotient toward zero,
+     yielding the same result as Fortran.  However, before C99 the
+     standard allowed C implementations to take the floor or ceiling of
+     the quotient in some cases.  Hardly any implementations took
+     advantage of this freedom, though, and it's probably not worth
+     worrying about this issue nowadays.

+5.5.2 Particular Function Checks
+--------------------------------
+
+These macros check for particular C functions--whether they exist, and
+in some cases how they respond when given certain arguments.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_ALLOCA
+     Check how to get `alloca'.  Tries to get a builtin version by
+     checking for `alloca.h' or the predefined C preprocessor macros
+     `__GNUC__' and `_AIX'.  If this macro finds `alloca.h', it defines
+     `HAVE_ALLOCA_H'.
+
+     If those attempts fail, it looks for the function in the standard C
+     library.  If any of those methods succeed, it defines
+     `HAVE_ALLOCA'.  Otherwise, it sets the output variable `ALLOCA' to
+     `${LIBOBJDIR}alloca.o' and defines `C_ALLOCA' (so programs can
+     periodically call `alloca (0)' to garbage collect).  This variable
+     is separate from `LIBOBJS' so multiple programs can share the
+     value of `ALLOCA' without needing to create an actual library, in
+     case only some of them use the code in `LIBOBJS'.  The
+     `${LIBOBJDIR}' prefix serves the same purpose as in `LIBOBJS'
+     (*note AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS::).
+
+     This macro does not try to get `alloca' from the System V R3
+     `libPW' or the System V R4 `libucb' because those libraries
+     contain some incompatible functions that cause trouble.  Some
+     versions do not even contain `alloca' or contain a buggy version.
+     If you still want to use their `alloca', use `ar' to extract
+     `alloca.o' from them instead of compiling `alloca.c'.
+
+     Source files that use `alloca' should start with a piece of code
+     like the following, to declare it properly.
+
+          #ifdef STDC_HEADERS
+          # include <stdlib.h>
+          # include <stddef.h>
+          #else
+          # ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H
+          #  include <stdlib.h>
+          # endif
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_ALLOCA_H
+          # include <alloca.h>
+          #elif !defined alloca

+          #  ifdef  __cplusplus
+          extern "C"
+          #  endif

+          # endif
+          #endif
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_CHOWN
+     If the `chown' function is available and works (in particular, it
+     should accept `-1' for `uid' and `gid'), define `HAVE_CHOWN'.  The
+     result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_chown_works'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID
+     If the `closedir' function does not return a meaningful value,
+     define `CLOSEDIR_VOID'.  Otherwise, callers ought to check its
+     return value for an error indicator.
+
+     Currently this test is implemented by running a test program.  When
+     cross compiling the pessimistic assumption that `closedir' does not
+     return a meaningful value is made.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_closedir_void' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as `closedir' returns a meaningful value
+     on current systems.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE
+     If the `error_at_line' function is not found, require an
+     `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement of `error'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_lib_error_at_line'
+     variable.
+
+     The `AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE' macro is obsolescent.  New programs
+     should use Gnulib's `error' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_FNMATCH
+     If the `fnmatch' function conforms to Posix, define
+     `HAVE_FNMATCH'.  Detect common implementation bugs, for example,
+     the bugs in Solaris 2.4.
+
+     Unlike the other specific `AC_FUNC' macros, `AC_FUNC_FNMATCH' does
+     not replace a broken/missing `fnmatch'.  This is for historical
+     reasons.  See `AC_REPLACE_FNMATCH' below.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_fnmatch_works' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent.  New programs should use Gnulib's
+     `fnmatch-posix' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU
+     Behave like `AC_REPLACE_FNMATCH' (_replace_) but also test whether
+     `fnmatch' supports GNU extensions.  Detect common implementation
+     bugs, for example, the bugs in the GNU C Library 2.1.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_fnmatch_gnu'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent.  New programs should use Gnulib's
+     `fnmatch-gnu' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_FORK
+     This macro checks for the `fork' and `vfork' functions.  If a
+     working `fork' is found, define `HAVE_WORKING_FORK'.  This macro
+     checks whether `fork' is just a stub by trying to run it.
+
+     If `vfork.h' is found, define `HAVE_VFORK_H'.  If a working
+     `vfork' is found, define `HAVE_WORKING_VFORK'.  Otherwise, define
+     `vfork' to be `fork' for backward compatibility with previous
+     versions of `autoconf'.  This macro checks for several known
+     errors in implementations of `vfork' and considers the system to
+     not have a working `vfork' if it detects any of them.  It is not
+     considered to be an implementation error if a child's invocation
+     of `signal' modifies the parent's signal handler, since child
+     processes rarely change their signal handlers.
+
+     Since this macro defines `vfork' only for backward compatibility
+     with previous versions of `autoconf' you're encouraged to define it
+     yourself in new code:
+          #ifndef HAVE_WORKING_VFORK
+          # define vfork fork
+          #endif
+
+     The results of this macro are cached in the `ac_cv_func_fork_works'
+     and `ac_cv_func_vfork_works' variables.  In order to override the
+     test, you also need to set the `ac_cv_func_fork' and
+     `ac_cv_func_vfork' variables.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_FSEEKO
+     If the `fseeko' function is available, define `HAVE_FSEEKO'.
+     Define `_LARGEFILE_SOURCE' if necessary to make the prototype
+     visible on some systems (e.g., glibc 2.2).  Otherwise linkage
+     problems may occur when compiling with `AC_SYS_LARGEFILE' on
+     largefile-sensitive systems where `off_t' does not default to a
+     64bit entity.  All systems with `fseeko' also supply `ftello'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_GETGROUPS
+     If the `getgroups' function is available and works (unlike on
+     Ultrix 4.3, where `getgroups (0, 0)' always fails), define
+     `HAVE_GETGROUPS'.  Set `GETGROUPS_LIBS' to any libraries needed to
+     get that function.  This macro runs `AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
+     Check how to get the system load averages.  To perform its tests
+     properly, this macro needs the file `getloadavg.c'; therefore, be
+     sure to set the `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement directory properly (see
+     *note Generic Functions::, `AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR').
+
+     If the system has the `getloadavg' function, define
+     `HAVE_GETLOADAVG', and set `GETLOADAVG_LIBS' to any libraries
+     necessary to get that function.  Also add `GETLOADAVG_LIBS' to
+     `LIBS'.  Otherwise, require an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for
+     `getloadavg' with source code in `DIR/getloadavg.c', and possibly
+     define several other C preprocessor macros and output variables:
+
+       1. Define `C_GETLOADAVG'.
+
+       2. Define `SVR4', `DGUX', `UMAX', or `UMAX4_3' if on those
+          systems.
+
+       3. If `nlist.h' is found, define `HAVE_NLIST_H'.
+
+       4. If `struct nlist' has an `n_un.n_name' member, define
+          `HAVE_STRUCT_NLIST_N_UN_N_NAME'.  The obsolete symbol
+          `NLIST_NAME_UNION' is still defined, but do not depend upon
+          it.
+
+       5. Programs may need to be installed set-group-ID (or
+          set-user-ID) for `getloadavg' to work.  In this case, define
+          `GETLOADAVG_PRIVILEGED', set the output variable `NEED_SETGID'
+          to `true' (and otherwise to `false'), and set `KMEM_GROUP' to
+          the name of the group that should own the installed program.
+
+     The `AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG' macro is obsolescent.  New programs should
+     use Gnulib's `getloadavg' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT
+     Check for `getmntent' in the standard C library, and then in the
+     `sun', `seq', and `gen' libraries, for UNICOS, IRIX 4, PTX, and
+     UnixWare, respectively.  Then, if `getmntent' is available, define
+     `HAVE_GETMNTENT' and set `ac_cv_func_getmntent' to `yes'.
+     Otherwise set `ac_cv_func_getmntent' to `no'.
+
+     The result of this macro can be overridden by setting the cache
+     variable `ac_cv_search_getmntent'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_GETPGRP
+     Define `GETPGRP_VOID' if it is an error to pass 0 to `getpgrp';
+     this is the Posix behavior.  On older BSD systems, you must pass 0
+     to `getpgrp', as it takes an argument and behaves like Posix's
+     `getpgid'.
+
+          #ifdef GETPGRP_VOID
+            pid = getpgrp ();
+          #else
+            pid = getpgrp (0);
+          #endif
+
+     This macro does not check whether `getpgrp' exists at all; if you
+     need to work in that situation, first call `AC_CHECK_FUNC' for
+     `getpgrp'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_getpgrp_void'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have a `getpgrp'
+     whose signature conforms to Posix.  New programs need not use this
+     macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK
+     If `link' is a symbolic link, then `lstat' should treat `link/'
+     the same as `link/.'.  However, many older `lstat' implementations
+     incorrectly ignore trailing slashes.
+
+     It is safe to assume that if `lstat' incorrectly ignores trailing
+     slashes, then other symbolic-link-aware functions like `unlink'
+     also incorrectly ignore trailing slashes.
+
+     If `lstat' behaves properly, define
+     `LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK', otherwise require an `AC_LIBOBJ'
+     replacement of `lstat'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_lstat_dereferences_slashed_symlink' variable.
+
+     The `AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK' macro is obsolescent.
+     New programs should use Gnulib's `lstat' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_MALLOC
+     If the `malloc' function is compatible with the GNU C library
+     `malloc' (i.e., `malloc (0)' returns a valid pointer), define
+     `HAVE_MALLOC' to 1.  Otherwise define `HAVE_MALLOC' to 0, ask for
+     an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for `malloc', and define `malloc' to
+     `rpl_malloc' so that the native `malloc' is not used in the main
+     project.
+
+     Typically, the replacement file `malloc.c' should look like (note
+     the `#undef malloc'):
+
+     #include <config.h>
+     #undef malloc
+
+     #include <sys/types.h>
+
+     void *malloc ();
+
+     /* Allocate an N-byte block of memory from the heap.
+        If N is zero, allocate a 1-byte block.  */
+
+     void *
+     rpl_malloc (size_t n)
+     {
+       if (n == 0)
+         n = 1;
+       return malloc (n);
+     }
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC
+     Define `HAVE_MBRTOWC' to 1 if the function `mbrtowc' and the type
+     `mbstate_t' are properly declared.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_mbrtowc'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_MEMCMP
+     If the `memcmp' function is not available, or does not work on
+     8-bit data (like the one on SunOS 4.1.3), or fails when comparing
+     16 bytes or more and with at least one buffer not starting on a
+     4-byte boundary (such as the one on NeXT x86 OpenStep), require an
+     `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for `memcmp'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_memcmp_working' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have a working
+     `memcmp'.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_MKTIME
+     If the `mktime' function is not available, or does not work
+     correctly, require an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for `mktime'.  For
+     the purposes of this test, `mktime' should conform to the Posix
+     standard and should be the inverse of `localtime'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_working_mktime' variable.
+
+     The `AC_FUNC_MKTIME' macro is obsolescent.  New programs should
+     use Gnulib's `mktime' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_MMAP
+     If the `mmap' function exists and works correctly, define
+     `HAVE_MMAP'.  This checks only private fixed mapping of
+     already-mapped memory.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_mmap_fixed_mapped' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_OBSTACK
+     If the obstacks are found, define `HAVE_OBSTACK', else require an
+     `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for `obstack'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_obstack'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_REALLOC
+     If the `realloc' function is compatible with the GNU C library
+     `realloc' (i.e., `realloc (NULL, 0)' returns a valid pointer),
+     define `HAVE_REALLOC' to 1.  Otherwise define `HAVE_REALLOC' to 0,
+     ask for an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for `realloc', and define
+     `realloc' to `rpl_realloc' so that the native `realloc' is not
+     used in the main project.  See `AC_FUNC_MALLOC' for details.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_realloc_0_nonnull' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES
+     Determines the correct type to be passed for each of the `select'
+     function's arguments, and defines those types in
+     `SELECT_TYPE_ARG1', `SELECT_TYPE_ARG234', and `SELECT_TYPE_ARG5'
+     respectively.  `SELECT_TYPE_ARG1' defaults to `int',
+     `SELECT_TYPE_ARG234' defaults to `int *', and `SELECT_TYPE_ARG5'
+     defaults to `struct timeval *'.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have a `select' whose
+     signature conforms to Posix.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_SETPGRP
+     If `setpgrp' takes no argument (the Posix version), define
+     `SETPGRP_VOID'.  Otherwise, it is the BSD version, which takes two
+     process IDs as arguments.  This macro does not check whether
+     `setpgrp' exists at all; if you need to work in that situation,
+     first call `AC_CHECK_FUNC' for `setpgrp'.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_func_setpgrp_void'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have a `setpgrp'
+     whose signature conforms to Posix.  New programs need not use this
+     macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STAT
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_LSTAT
+     Determine whether `stat' or `lstat' have the bug that it succeeds
+     when given the zero-length file name as argument.  The `stat' and
+     `lstat' from SunOS 4.1.4 and the Hurd (as of 1998-11-01) do this.
+
+     If it does, then define `HAVE_STAT_EMPTY_STRING_BUG' (or
+     `HAVE_LSTAT_EMPTY_STRING_BUG') and ask for an `AC_LIBOBJ'
+     replacement of it.
+
+     The results of these macros are cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_stat_empty_string_bug' and the
+     `ac_cv_func_lstat_empty_string_bug' variables, respectively.
+
+     These macros are obsolescent, as no current systems have the bug.
+     New programs need not use these macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRCOLL
+     If the `strcoll' function exists and works correctly, define
+     `HAVE_STRCOLL'.  This does a bit more than
+     `AC_CHECK_FUNCS(strcoll)', because some systems have incorrect
+     definitions of `strcoll' that should not be used.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_strcoll_works' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R
+     If `strerror_r' is available, define `HAVE_STRERROR_R', and if it
+     is declared, define `HAVE_DECL_STRERROR_R'.  If it returns a `char
+     *' message, define `STRERROR_R_CHAR_P'; otherwise it returns an
+     `int' error number.  The Thread-Safe Functions option of Posix
+     requires `strerror_r' to return `int', but many systems
+     (including, for example, version 2.2.4 of the GNU C Library)
+     return a `char *' value that is not necessarily equal to the
+     buffer argument.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_func_strerror_r_char_p' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRFTIME
+     Check for `strftime' in the `intl' library, for SCO Unix.  Then,
+     if `strftime' is available, define `HAVE_STRFTIME'.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as no current systems require the `intl'
+     library for `strftime'.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRTOD
+     If the `strtod' function does not exist or doesn't work correctly,
+     ask for an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement of `strtod'.  In this case,
+     because `strtod.c' is likely to need `pow', set the output
+     variable `POW_LIB' to the extra library needed.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_strtod' variable
+     and depends upon the result in the `ac_cv_func_pow' variable.
+
+     The `AC_FUNC_STRTOD' macro is obsolescent.  New programs should
+     use Gnulib's `strtod' module.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRTOLD
+     If the `strtold' function exists and conforms to C99, define
+     `HAVE_STRTOLD'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_strtold' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_STRNLEN
+     If the `strnlen' function is not available, or is buggy (like the
+     one from AIX 4.3), require an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement for it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_strnlen_working'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL
+     If `utime (FILE, NULL)' sets FILE's timestamp to the present,
+     define `HAVE_UTIME_NULL'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_utime_null'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as all current systems have a `utime'
+     that behaves this way.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_VPRINTF
+     If `vprintf' is found, define `HAVE_VPRINTF'.  Otherwise, if
+     `_doprnt' is found, define `HAVE_DOPRNT'.  (If `vprintf' is
+     available, you may assume that `vfprintf' and `vsprintf' are also
+     available.)
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as all current systems have `vprintf'.
+     New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REPLACE_FNMATCH
+     If the `fnmatch' function does not conform to Posix (see
+     `AC_FUNC_FNMATCH'), ask for its `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement.
+
+     The files `fnmatch.c', `fnmatch_loop.c', and `fnmatch_.h' in the
+     `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement directory are assumed to contain a copy of
+     the source code of GNU `fnmatch'.  If necessary, this source code
+     is compiled as an `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement, and the `fnmatch_.h'
+     file is linked to `fnmatch.h' so that it can be included in place
+     of the system `<fnmatch.h>'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_fnmatch_works'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as it assumes the use of particular
+     source files.  New programs should use Gnulib's `fnmatch-posix'
+     module, which provides this macro along with the source files.
+     *Note Gnulib::.

+5.5.3 Generic Function Checks
+-----------------------------
+
+These macros are used to find functions not covered by the "particular"
+test macros.  If the functions might be in libraries other than the
+default C library, first call `AC_CHECK_LIB' for those libraries.  If
+you need to check the behavior of a function as well as find out
+whether it is present, you have to write your own test for it (*note
+Writing Tests::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_FUNC (FUNCTION, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     If C function FUNCTION is available, run shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.  If you just want
+     to define a symbol if the function is available, consider using
+     `AC_CHECK_FUNCS' instead.  This macro checks for functions with C
+     linkage even when `AC_LANG(C++)' has been called, since C is more
+     standardized than C++.  (*note Language Choice::, for more
+     information about selecting the language for checks.)
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_func_FUNCTION' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_FUNCS (FUNCTION..., [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     For each FUNCTION enumerated in the blank-or-newline-separated
+     argument list, define `HAVE_FUNCTION' (in all capitals) if it is
+     available.  If ACTION-IF-FOUND is given, it is additional shell
+     code to execute when one of the functions is found.  You can give
+     it a value of `break' to break out of the loop on the first match.
+     If ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is given, it is executed when one of the
+     functions is not found.
+
+     Results are cached for each FUNCTION as in `AC_CHECK_FUNC'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE (FUNCTION...)
+     For each FUNCTION enumerated in the blank-or-newline-separated
+     argument list, define `HAVE_FUNCTION' (in all capitals) if it is
+     available.  This is a once-only variant of `AC_CHECK_FUNCS'.  It
+     generates the checking code at most once, so that `configure' is
+     smaller and faster; but the checks cannot be conditionalized and
+     are always done once, early during the `configure' run.
+
+
+   Autoconf follows a philosophy that was formed over the years by those
+who have struggled for portability: isolate the portability issues in
+specific files, and then program as if you were in a Posix environment.
+Some functions may be missing or unfixable, and your package must be
+ready to replace them.
+
+   Suitable replacements for many such problem functions are available
+from Gnulib (*note Gnulib::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LIBOBJ (FUNCTION)
+     Specify that `FUNCTION.c' must be included in the executables to
+     replace a missing or broken implementation of FUNCTION.
+
+     Technically, it adds `FUNCTION.$ac_objext' to the output variable
+     `LIBOBJS' if it is not already in, and calls `AC_LIBSOURCE' for
+     `FUNCTION.c'.  You should not directly change `LIBOBJS', since
+     this is not traceable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LIBSOURCE (FILE)
+     Specify that FILE might be needed to compile the project.  If you
+     need to know what files might be needed by a `configure.ac', you
+     should trace `AC_LIBSOURCE'.  FILE must be a literal.
+
+     This macro is called automatically from `AC_LIBOBJ', but you must
+     call it explicitly if you pass a shell variable to `AC_LIBOBJ'.  In
+     that case, since shell variables cannot be traced statically, you
+     must pass to `AC_LIBSOURCE' any possible files that the shell
+     variable might cause `AC_LIBOBJ' to need.  For example, if you
+     want to pass a variable `$foo_or_bar' to `AC_LIBOBJ' that holds
+     either `"foo"' or `"bar"', you should do:
+
+          AC_LIBSOURCE([foo.c])
+          AC_LIBSOURCE([bar.c])
+          AC_LIBOBJ([$foo_or_bar])
+
+     There is usually a way to avoid this, however, and you are
+     encouraged to simply call `AC_LIBOBJ' with literal arguments.
+
+     Note that this macro replaces the obsolete `AC_LIBOBJ_DECL', with
+     slightly different semantics: the old macro took the function name,
+     e.g., `foo', as its argument rather than the file name.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LIBSOURCES (FILES)
+     Like `AC_LIBSOURCE', but accepts one or more FILES in a
+     comma-separated M4 list.  Thus, the above example might be
+     rewritten:
+
+          AC_LIBSOURCES([foo.c, bar.c])
+          AC_LIBOBJ([$foo_or_bar])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR (DIRECTORY)
+     Specify that `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement files are to be found in
+     DIRECTORY, a name relative to the top level of the source tree.
+     The replacement directory defaults to `.', the top level
+     directory, and the most typical value is `lib', corresponding to
+     `AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR([lib])'.
+
+     `configure' might need to know the replacement directory for the
+     following reasons: (i) some checks use the replacement files, (ii)
+     some macros bypass broken system headers by installing links to the
+     replacement headers (iii) when used in conjunction with Automake,
+     within each makefile, DIRECTORY is used as a relative path from
+     `$(top_srcdir)' to each object named in `LIBOBJS' and `LTLIBOBJS',
+     etc.
+
+
+   It is common to merely check for the existence of a function, and ask
+for its `AC_LIBOBJ' replacement if missing.  The following macro is a
+convenient shorthand.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REPLACE_FUNCS (FUNCTION...)
+     Like `AC_CHECK_FUNCS', but uses `AC_LIBOBJ(FUNCTION)' as
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.  You can declare your replacement function by
+     enclosing the prototype in `#ifndef HAVE_FUNCTION'.  If the system
+     has the function, it probably declares it in a header file you
+     should be including, so you shouldn't redeclare it lest your
+     declaration conflict.

+
+The following macros check for the presence of certain C header files.
+If there is no macro specifically defined to check for a header file
+you need, and you don't need to check for any special properties of it,
+then you can use one of the general header-file check macros.

+5.6.1 Portability of Headers
+----------------------------
+
+This section documents some collected knowledge about common headers,
+and the problems they cause.  By definition, this list always requires
+additions.  A much more complete list is maintained by the Gnulib
+project (*note Gnulib::), covering *note Posix Headers: (gnulib)Header
+File Substitutes. and *note Glibc Headers: (gnulib)Glibc Header File
+Substitutes.  Please help us keep the gnulib list as complete as
+possible.
+
+`limits.h'
+     C99 says that `limits.h' defines `LLONG_MIN', `LLONG_MAX', and
+     `ULLONG_MAX', but many almost-C99 environments (e.g., default GCC
+     4.0.2 + glibc 2.4) do not define them.
+
+`inttypes.h' vs. `stdint.h'
+     The C99 standard says that `inttypes.h' includes `stdint.h', so
+     there's no need to include `stdint.h' separately in a standard
+     environment.  Some implementations have `inttypes.h' but not
+     `stdint.h' (e.g., Solaris 7), but we don't know of any
+     implementation that has `stdint.h' but not `inttypes.h'.
+
+`linux/irda.h'
+     It requires `linux/types.h' and `sys/socket.h'.
+
+`linux/random.h'
+     It requires `linux/types.h'.
+
+`net/if.h'
+     On Darwin, this file requires that `sys/socket.h' be included
+     beforehand.  One should run:
+
+          AC_CHECK_HEADERS([sys/socket.h])

+          #  include <stdlib.h>
+          # endif
+          #endif
+          #ifdef HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H
+          # include <sys/socket.h>
+          #endif
+          ])
+
+`netinet/if_ether.h'
+     On Darwin, this file requires that `stdio.h' and `sys/socket.h' be
+     included beforehand.  One should run:
+
+          AC_CHECK_HEADERS([sys/socket.h])
+          AC_CHECK_HEADERS([netinet/if_ether.h], [], [],

+          # include <stddef.h>
+          #else
+          # ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H

+          ])
+
+`stdint.h'
+     See above, item `inttypes.h' vs. `stdint.h'.
+
+`stdlib.h'
+     On many systems (e.g., Darwin), `stdio.h' is a prerequisite.
+
+`sys/mount.h'
+     On FreeBSD 4.8 on ia32 and using gcc version 2.95.4,
+     `sys/params.h' is a prerequisite.
+
+`sys/ptem.h'
+     On Solaris 8, `sys/stream.h' is a prerequisite.

+     On Tru64 5.1, `sys/types.h' is a prerequisite.
+
+`X11/extensions/scrnsaver.h'
+     Using XFree86, this header requires `X11/Xlib.h', which is probably

+
+5.6.2 Particular Header Checks
+------------------------------
+
+These macros check for particular system header files--whether they
+exist, and in some cases whether they declare certain symbols.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL
+     Check whether `stdbool.h' exists and conforms to C99, and cache the
+     result in the `ac_cv_header_stdbool_h' variable.  If the type
+     `_Bool' is defined, define `HAVE__BOOL' to 1.
+
+     This macro is intended for use by Gnulib (*note Gnulib::) and other
+     packages that supply a substitute `stdbool.h' on platforms lacking
+     a conforming one.  The `AC_HEADER_STDBOOL' macro is better for code
+     that explicitly checks for `stdbool.h'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_ASSERT
+     Check whether to enable assertions in the style of `assert.h'.
+     Assertions are enabled by default, but the user can override this
+     by invoking `configure' with the `--disable-assert' option.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_DIRENT
+     Check for the following header files.  For the first one that is
+     found and defines `DIR', define the listed C preprocessor macro:
+
+     `dirent.h'     `HAVE_DIRENT_H'
+     `sys/ndir.h'   `HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H'
+     `sys/dir.h'    `HAVE_SYS_DIR_H'
+     `ndir.h'       `HAVE_NDIR_H'
+
+     The directory-library declarations in your source code should look
+     something like the following:
+
+          #include <sys/types.h>
+          #ifdef HAVE_DIRENT_H
+          # include <dirent.h>
+          # define NAMLEN(dirent) strlen ((dirent)->d_name)
+          #else
+          # define dirent direct
+          # define NAMLEN(dirent) ((dirent)->d_namlen)
+          # ifdef HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H
+          #  include <sys/ndir.h>
+          # endif
+          # ifdef HAVE_SYS_DIR_H
+          #  include <sys/dir.h>
+          # endif
+          # ifdef HAVE_NDIR_H
+          #  include <ndir.h>
+          # endif
+          #endif
+
+     Using the above declarations, the program would declare variables
+     to be of type `struct dirent', not `struct direct', and would
+     access the length of a directory entry name by passing a pointer
+     to a `struct dirent' to the `NAMLEN' macro.
+
+     This macro also checks for the SCO Xenix `dir' and `x' libraries.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as all current systems with directory
+     libraries have `<dirent.h>'.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+     Also see `AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO' and `AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE'
+     (*note Particular Structures::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_MAJOR
+     If `sys/types.h' does not define `major', `minor', and `makedev',
+     but `sys/mkdev.h' does, define `MAJOR_IN_MKDEV'; otherwise, if
+     `sys/sysmacros.h' does, define `MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_RESOLV
+     Checks for header `resolv.h', checking for prerequisites first.
+     To properly use `resolv.h', your code should contain something like
+     the following:
+
+     #ifdef HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H
+     #  include <sys/types.h>
+     #endif
+     #ifdef HAVE_NETINET_IN_H
+     #  include <netinet/in.h>   /* inet_ functions / structs */
+     #endif
+     #ifdef HAVE_ARPA_NAMESER_H
+     #  include <arpa/nameser.h> /* DNS HEADER struct */
+     #endif
+     #ifdef HAVE_NETDB_H
+     #  include <netdb.h>
+     #endif
+     #include <resolv.h>
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_STAT
+     If the macros `S_ISDIR', `S_ISREG', etc. defined in `sys/stat.h'
+     do not work properly (returning false positives), define
+     `STAT_MACROS_BROKEN'.  This is the case on Tektronix UTekV, Amdahl
+     UTS and Motorola System V/88.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as no current systems have the bug.
+     New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_STDBOOL
+     If `stdbool.h' exists and conforms to C99, define `HAVE_STDBOOL_H'
+     to 1; if the type `_Bool' is defined, define `HAVE__BOOL' to 1.
+     To fulfill the C99 requirements, your program could contain the
+     following code:
+
+          #ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H
+          # include <stdbool.h>
+          #else
+          # ifndef HAVE__BOOL
+          #  ifdef __cplusplus
+          typedef bool _Bool;
+          #  else
+          #   define _Bool signed char
+          #  endif
+          # endif
+          # define bool _Bool
+          # define false 0
+          # define true 1
+          # define __bool_true_false_are_defined 1
+          #endif
+
+     Alternatively you can use the `stdbool' package of Gnulib (*note
+     Gnulib::).  It simplifies your code so that it can say just
+     `#include <stdbool.h>', and it adds support for less-common
+     platforms.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_stdbool_h'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro differs from `AC_CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL' only in that it
+     defines `HAVE_STDBOOL_H' whereas `AC_CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL' does
+     not.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_STDC
+     Define `STDC_HEADERS' if the system has C header files conforming
+     to ANSI C89 (ISO C90).  Specifically, this macro checks for
+     `stdlib.h', `stdarg.h', `string.h', and `float.h'; if the system
+     has those, it probably has the rest of the C89 header files.  This
+     macro also checks whether `string.h' declares `memchr' (and thus
+     presumably the other `mem' functions), whether `stdlib.h' declare
+     `free' (and thus presumably `malloc' and other related functions),
+     and whether the `ctype.h' macros work on characters with the high
+     bit set, as the C standard requires.
+
+     If you use this macro, your code can refer to `STDC_HEADERS' to
+     determine whether the system has conforming header files (and
+     probably C library functions).
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_stdc' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have conforming
+     header files.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+     Nowadays `string.h' is part of the C standard and declares
+     functions like `strcpy', and `strings.h' is standardized by Posix
+     and declares BSD functions like `bcopy'; but historically, string
+     functions were a major sticking point in this area.  If you still
+     want to worry about portability to ancient systems without
+     standard headers, there is so much variation that it is probably
+     easier to declare the functions you use than to figure out exactly
+     what the system header files declare.  Some ancient systems
+     contained a mix of functions from the C standard and from BSD;
+     some were mostly standard but lacked `memmove'; some defined the
+     BSD functions as macros in `string.h' or `strings.h'; some had
+     only the BSD functions but `string.h'; some declared the memory
+     functions in `memory.h', some in `string.h'; etc.  It is probably
+     sufficient to check for one string function and one memory
+     function; if the library had the standard versions of those then
+     it probably had most of the others.  If you put the following in
+     `configure.ac':
+
+          # This example is obsolescent.
+          # Nowadays you can omit these macro calls.
+          AC_HEADER_STDC
+          AC_CHECK_FUNCS([strchr memcpy])
+
+     then, in your code, you can use declarations like this:
+
+          /* This example is obsolescent.
+             Nowadays you can just #include <string.h>.  */
+          #ifdef STDC_HEADERS
+          # include <string.h>
+          #else
+          # ifndef HAVE_STRCHR
+          #  define strchr index
+          #  define strrchr rindex
+          # endif
+          char *strchr (), *strrchr ();
+          # ifndef HAVE_MEMCPY
+          #  define memcpy(d, s, n) bcopy ((s), (d), (n))
+          #  define memmove(d, s, n) bcopy ((s), (d), (n))
+          # endif
+          #endif
+
+     If you use a function like `memchr', `memset', `strtok', or
+     `strspn', which have no BSD equivalent, then macros don't suffice
+     to port to ancient hosts; you must provide an implementation of
+     each function.  An easy way to incorporate your implementations
+     only when needed (since the ones in system C libraries may be hand
+     optimized) is to, taking `memchr' for example, put it in
+     `memchr.c' and use `AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([memchr])'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT
+     If `sys/wait.h' exists and is compatible with Posix, define
+     `HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H'.  Incompatibility can occur if `sys/wait.h' does
+     not exist, or if it uses the old BSD `union wait' instead of `int'
+     to store a status value.  If `sys/wait.h' is not Posix compatible,
+     then instead of including it, define the Posix macros with their
+     usual interpretations.  Here is an example:
+
+          #include <sys/types.h>
+          #ifdef HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H
+          # include <sys/wait.h>
+          #endif
+          #ifndef WEXITSTATUS
+          # define WEXITSTATUS(stat_val) ((unsigned int) (stat_val) >> 8)
+          #endif
+          #ifndef WIFEXITED
+          # define WIFEXITED(stat_val) (((stat_val) & 255) == 0)
+          #endif
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_sys_wait_h'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems are compatible with
+     Posix.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+   `_POSIX_VERSION' is defined when `unistd.h' is included on Posix
+systems.  If there is no `unistd.h', it is definitely not a Posix
+system.  However, some non-Posix systems do have `unistd.h'.
+
+   The way to check whether the system supports Posix is:
+
+     #ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+     # include <sys/types.h>
+     # include <unistd.h>
+     #endif
+
+     #ifdef _POSIX_VERSION
+     /* Code for Posix systems.  */
+     #endif
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_TIME
+     If a program may include both `time.h' and `sys/time.h', define
+     `TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME'.  On some ancient systems, `sys/time.h'
+     included `time.h', but `time.h' was not protected against multiple
+     inclusion, so programs could not explicitly include both files.
+     This macro is useful in programs that use, for example, `struct
+     timeval' as well as `struct tm'.  It is best used in conjunction
+     with `HAVE_SYS_TIME_H', which can be checked for using
+     `AC_CHECK_HEADERS([sys/time.h])'.
+
+          #ifdef TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME
+          # include <sys/time.h>
+          # include <time.h>
+          #else
+          # ifdef HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
+          #  include <sys/time.h>
+          # else
+          #  include <time.h>
+          # endif
+          #endif
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_time' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current systems can include both
+     files when they exist.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_TIOCGWINSZ
+     If the use of `TIOCGWINSZ' requires `<sys/ioctl.h>', then define
+     `GWINSZ_IN_SYS_IOCTL'.  Otherwise `TIOCGWINSZ' can be found in
+     `<termios.h>'.
+
+     Use:
+
+          #ifdef HAVE_TERMIOS_H
+          # include <termios.h>
+          #endif
+
+          #ifdef GWINSZ_IN_SYS_IOCTL
+          # include <sys/ioctl.h>
+          #endif

+5.6.3 Generic Header Checks
+---------------------------
+
+These macros are used to find system header files not covered by the
+"particular" test macros.  If you need to check the contents of a header
+as well as find out whether it is present, you have to write your own
+test for it (*note Writing Tests::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_HEADER (HEADER-FILE, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES])
+     If the system header file HEADER-FILE is compilable, execute shell
+     commands ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise execute ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.
+     If you just want to define a symbol if the header file is
+     available, consider using `AC_CHECK_HEADERS' instead.
+
+     INCLUDES is decoded to determine the appropriate include
+     directives.  If omitted or empty, `configure' will check for both
+     header existence (with the preprocessor) and usability (with the
+     compiler), using `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' for the compile test.  If
+     there is a discrepancy between the results, a warning is issued to
+     the user, and the compiler results are favored (*note Present But
+     Cannot Be Compiled::).  In general, favoring the compiler results
+     means that a header will be treated as not found even though the
+     file exists, because you did not provide enough prerequisites.
+
+     Providing a non-empty INCLUDES argument allows the code to provide
+     any prerequisites prior to including the header under test; it is
+     common to use the argument `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' (*note Default
+     Includes::).  With an explicit fourth argument, no preprocessor
+     test is needed.  As a special case, an INCLUDES of exactly `-'
+     triggers the older preprocessor check, which merely determines
+     existence of the file in the preprocessor search path; this should
+     only be used as a last resort (it is safer to determine the actual
+     prerequisites and perform a compiler check, or else use
+     `AC_PREPROC_IFELSE' to make it obvious that only a preprocessor
+     check is desired).
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_HEADER-FILE'
+     variable, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped
+     to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_HEADERS (HEADER-FILE..., [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES])
+     For each given system header file HEADER-FILE in the
+     blank-separated argument list that exists, define
+     `HAVE_HEADER-FILE' (in all capitals).  If ACTION-IF-FOUND is
+     given, it is additional shell code to execute when one of the
+     header files is found.  You can give it a value of `break' to
+     break out of the loop on the first match.  If ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND
+     is given, it is executed when one of the header files is not found.
+
+     INCLUDES is interpreted as in `AC_CHECK_HEADER', in order to
+     choose the set of preprocessor directives supplied before the
+     header under test.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_header_HEADER-FILE'
+     variable, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped
+     to underscores.
+
+   Previous versions of Autoconf merely checked whether the header was
+accepted by the preprocessor.  This was changed because the old test was
+inappropriate for typical uses.  Headers are typically used to compile,
+not merely to preprocess, and the old behavior sometimes accepted
+headers that clashed at compile-time (*note Present But Cannot Be
+Compiled::).  If you need to check whether a header is preprocessable,
+you can use `AC_PREPROC_IFELSE' (*note Running the Preprocessor::).
+
+   Actually requiring a header to compile improves the robustness of the
+test, but it also requires that you make sure that headers that must be
+included before the HEADER-FILE be part of the INCLUDES, (*note Default
+Includes::).  If looking for `bar.h', which requires that `foo.h' be
+included before if it exists, we suggest the following scheme:
+
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([foo.h])
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([bar.h], [], [],
+[#ifdef HAVE_FOO_H
+# include <foo.h>
+#endif
+])
+
+   The following variant generates smaller, faster `configure' files if
+you do not need the full power of `AC_CHECK_HEADERS'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE (HEADER-FILE...)
+     For each given system header file HEADER-FILE in the
+     blank-separated argument list that exists, define
+     `HAVE_HEADER-FILE' (in all capitals).  This is a once-only variant
+     of `AC_CHECK_HEADERS'.  It generates the checking code at most
+     once, so that `configure' is smaller and faster; but the checks
+     cannot be conditionalized and are always done once, early during
+     the `configure' run.  Thus, this macro is only safe for checking
+     headers that do not have prerequisites beyond what
+     `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' provides.

+5.7 Declarations
+================
+
+The following macros check for the declaration of variables and
+functions.  If there is no macro specifically defined to check for a
+symbol you need, then you can use the general macros (*note Generic
+Declarations::) or, for more complex tests, you may use
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' (*note Running the Compiler::).
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Particular Declarations::     Macros to check for certain declarations
+* Generic Declarations::        How to find other declarations

+
+5.7.1 Particular Declaration Checks
+-----------------------------------
+
+There are no specific macros for declarations.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Generic Declarations,  Prev: Particular Declarations,  Up: Declarations
+
+5.7.2 Generic Declaration Checks
+--------------------------------
+
+These macros are used to find declarations not covered by the
+"particular" test macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_DECL (SYMBOL, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     If SYMBOL (a function, variable, or constant) is not declared in
+     INCLUDES and a declaration is needed, run the shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND, otherwise ACTION-IF-FOUND.  INCLUDES is a
+     series of include directives, defaulting to `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'
+     (*note Default Includes::), which are used prior to the
+     declaration under test.
+
+     This macro actually tests whether SYMBOL is defined as a macro or
+     can be used as an r-value, not whether it is really declared,
+     because it is much safer to avoid introducing extra declarations
+     when they are not needed.  In order to facilitate use of C++ and
+     overloaded function declarations, it is possible to specify
+     function argument types in parentheses for types which can be
+     zero-initialized:
+
+          AC_CHECK_DECL([basename(char *)])
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_have_decl_SYMBOL'
+     variable, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped
+     to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_DECLS (SYMBOLS, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     For each of the SYMBOLS (_comma_-separated list with optional
+     function argument types for C++ overloads), define
+     `HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL' (in all capitals) to `1' if SYMBOL is declared,
+     otherwise to `0'.  If ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is given, it is
+     additional shell code to execute when one of the function
+     declarations is needed, otherwise ACTION-IF-FOUND is executed.
+
+     INCLUDES is a series of include directives, defaulting to
+     `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' (*note Default Includes::), which are used
+     prior to the declarations under test.
+
+     This macro uses an M4 list as first argument:
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([strdup])
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([strlen])
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([malloc, realloc, calloc, free])
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([j0], [], [], [[#include <math.h>]])
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([[basename(char *)], [dirname(char *)]])
+
+     Unlike the other `AC_CHECK_*S' macros, when a SYMBOL is not
+     declared, `HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL' is defined to `0' instead of leaving
+     `HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL' undeclared.  When you are _sure_ that the check
+     was performed, use `HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL' in `#if':
+
+          #if !HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL
+          extern char *symbol;
+          #endif
+
+     If the test may have not been performed, however, because it is
+     safer _not_ to declare a symbol than to use a declaration that
+     conflicts with the system's one, you should use:
+
+          #if defined HAVE_DECL_MALLOC && !HAVE_DECL_MALLOC
+          void *malloc (size_t *s);
+          #endif
+
+     You fall into the second category only in extreme situations:
+     either your files may be used without being configured, or they
+     are used during the configuration.  In most cases the traditional
+     approach is enough.
+
+     This macro caches its results in `ac_cv_have_decl_SYMBOL'
+     variables, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped
+     to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE (SYMBOLS)
+     For each of the SYMBOLS (_comma_-separated list), define
+     `HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL' (in all capitals) to `1' if SYMBOL is declared
+     in the default include files, otherwise to `0'.  This is a
+     once-only variant of `AC_CHECK_DECLS'.  It generates the checking
+     code at most once, so that `configure' is smaller and faster; but
+     the checks cannot be conditionalized and are always done once,
+     early during the `configure' run.

+5.8 Structures
+==============
+
+The following macros check for the presence of certain members in C
+structures.  If there is no macro specifically defined to check for a
+member you need, then you can use the general structure-member macros
+(*note Generic Structures::) or, for more complex tests, you may use
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' (*note Running the Compiler::).

+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Particular Structures,  Next: Generic Structures,  Up: Structures
+
+5.8.1 Particular Structure Checks
+---------------------------------
+
+The following macros check for certain structures or structure members.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO
+     Perform all the actions of `AC_HEADER_DIRENT' (*note Particular
+     Headers::).  Then, if `struct dirent' contains a `d_ino' member,
+     define `HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO'.
+
+     `HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO' indicates only the presence of `d_ino',
+     not whether its contents are always reliable.  Traditionally, a
+     zero `d_ino' indicated a deleted directory entry, though current
+     systems hide this detail from the user and never return zero
+     `d_ino' values.  Many current systems report an incorrect `d_ino'
+     for a directory entry that is a mount point.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE
+     Perform all the actions of `AC_HEADER_DIRENT' (*note Particular
+     Headers::).  Then, if `struct dirent' contains a `d_type' member,
+     define `HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS
+     If `struct stat' contains an `st_blocks' member, define
+     `HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLOCKS'.  Otherwise, require an `AC_LIBOBJ'
+     replacement of `fileblocks'.  The former name, `HAVE_ST_BLOCKS' is
+     to be avoided, as its support will cease in the future.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the
+     `ac_cv_member_struct_stat_st_blocks' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_TM
+     If `time.h' does not define `struct tm', define `TM_IN_SYS_TIME',
+     which means that including `sys/time.h' had better define `struct
+     tm'.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as `time.h' defines `struct tm' in
+     current systems.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE
+     Figure out how to get the current timezone.  If `struct tm' has a
+     `tm_zone' member, define `HAVE_STRUCT_TM_TM_ZONE' (and the
+     obsoleted `HAVE_TM_ZONE').  Otherwise, if the external array
+     `tzname' is found, define `HAVE_TZNAME'; if it is declared, define
+     `HAVE_DECL_TZNAME'.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Generic Structures,  Prev: Particular Structures,  Up: Structures
+
+5.8.2 Generic Structure Checks
+------------------------------
+
+These macros are used to find structure members not covered by the
+"particular" test macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_MEMBER (AGGREGATE.MEMBER, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     Check whether MEMBER is a member of the aggregate AGGREGATE.  If
+     no INCLUDES are specified, the default includes are used (*note
+     Default Includes::).
+
+          AC_CHECK_MEMBER([struct passwd.pw_gecos], [],
+                          [AC_MSG_ERROR([we need `passwd.pw_gecos'])],
+                          [[#include <pwd.h>]])
+
+     You can use this macro for submembers:
+
+          AC_CHECK_MEMBER(struct top.middle.bot)
+
+     This macro caches its result in the
+     `ac_cv_member_AGGREGATE_MEMBER' variable, with characters not
+     suitable for a variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_MEMBERS (MEMBERS, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     Check for the existence of each `AGGREGATE.MEMBER' of MEMBERS
+     using the previous macro.  When MEMBER belongs to AGGREGATE,
+     define `HAVE_AGGREGATE_MEMBER' (in all capitals, with spaces and
+     dots replaced by underscores).  If ACTION-IF-FOUND is given, it is
+     executed for each of the found members.  If ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is
+     given, it is executed for each of the members that could not be
+     found.
+
+     INCLUDES is a series of include directives, defaulting to
+     `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' (*note Default Includes::), which are used
+     prior to the members under test.
+
+     This macro uses M4 lists:
+          AC_CHECK_MEMBERS([struct stat.st_rdev, struct stat.st_blksize])

+5.9 Types
+=========
+
+The following macros check for C types, either builtin or typedefs.  If
+there is no macro specifically defined to check for a type you need, and
+you don't need to check for any special properties of it, then you can
+use a general type-check macro.

+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Particular Types,  Next: Generic Types,  Up: Types
+
+5.9.1 Particular Type Checks
+----------------------------
+
+These macros check for particular C types in `sys/types.h', `stdlib.h',
+`stdint.h', `inttypes.h' and others, if they exist.
+
+   The Gnulib `stdint' module is an alternate way to define many of
+these symbols; it is useful if you prefer your code to assume a
+C99-or-better environment.  *Note Gnulib::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS
+     Define `GETGROUPS_T' to be whichever of `gid_t' or `int' is the
+     base type of the array argument to `getgroups'.
+
+     This macro caches the base type in the `ac_cv_type_getgroups'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INT8_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' does not define the type `int8_t',
+     define `int8_t' to a signed integer type that is exactly 8 bits
+     wide and that uses two's complement representation, if such a type
+     exists.  If you are worried about porting to hosts that lack such
+     a type, you can use the results of this macro in C89-or-later code
+     as follows:
+
+          #if HAVE_STDINT_H
+          # include <stdint.h>
+          #endif
+          #if defined INT8_MAX || defined int8_t
+           _code using int8_t_
+          #else
+           _complicated alternative using >8-bit 'signed char'_
+          #endif
+
+     This macro caches the type in the `ac_cv_c_int8_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INT16_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_INT8_T', except for 16-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INT32_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_INT8_T', except for 32-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INT64_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_INT8_T', except for 64-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' defines the type `intmax_t', define
+     `HAVE_INTMAX_T'.  Otherwise, define `intmax_t' to the widest
+     signed integer type.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_INTPTR_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' defines the type `intptr_t', define
+     `HAVE_INTPTR_T'.  Otherwise, define `intptr_t' to a signed integer
+     type wide enough to hold a pointer, if such a type exists.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE
+     If the C compiler supports a working `long double' type, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE'.  The `long double' type might have the same
+     range and precision as `double'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_long_double'
+     variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers support `long
+     double'.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER
+     If the C compiler supports a working `long double' type with more
+     range or precision than the `double' type, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_long_double_wider'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT
+     If the C compiler supports a working `long long int' type, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT'.  However, this test does not test `long long
+     int' values in preprocessor `#if' expressions, because too many
+     compilers mishandle such expressions.  *Note Preprocessor
+     Arithmetic::.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_long_long_int'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_MBSTATE_T
+     Define `HAVE_MBSTATE_T' if `<wchar.h>' declares the `mbstate_t'
+     type.  Also, define `mbstate_t' to be a type if `<wchar.h>' does
+     not declare it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_mbstate_t'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_MODE_T
+     Define `mode_t' to a suitable type, if standard headers do not
+     define it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_mode_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_OFF_T
+     Define `off_t' to a suitable type, if standard headers do not
+     define it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_off_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_PID_T
+     Define `pid_t' to a suitable type, if standard headers do not
+     define it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_pid_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_SIZE_T
+     Define `size_t' to a suitable type, if standard headers do not
+     define it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_size_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_SSIZE_T
+     Define `ssize_t' to a suitable type, if standard headers do not
+     define it.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_ssize_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UID_T
+     Define `uid_t' and `gid_t' to suitable types, if standard headers
+     do not define them.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_uid_t' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINT8_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' does not define the type `uint8_t',
+     define `uint8_t' to an unsigned integer type that is exactly 8
+     bits wide, if such a type exists.  This is like `AC_TYPE_INT8_T',
+     except for unsigned integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINT16_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_UINT8_T', except for 16-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINT32_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_UINT8_T', except for 32-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINT64_T
+     This is like `AC_TYPE_UINT8_T', except for 64-bit integers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' defines the type `uintmax_t', define
+     `HAVE_UINTMAX_T'.  Otherwise, define `uintmax_t' to the widest
+     unsigned integer type.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UINTPTR_T
+     If `stdint.h' or `inttypes.h' defines the type `uintptr_t', define
+     `HAVE_UINTPTR_T'.  Otherwise, define `uintptr_t' to an unsigned
+     integer type wide enough to hold a pointer, if such a type exists.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT
+     If the C compiler supports a working `unsigned long long int' type,
+     define `HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT'.  However, this test does not
+     test `unsigned long long int' values in preprocessor `#if'
+     expressions, because too many compilers mishandle such expressions.
+     *Note Preprocessor Arithmetic::.

+
+5.9.2 Generic Type Checks
+-------------------------
+
+These macros are used to check for types not covered by the "particular"
+test macros.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TYPE (TYPE, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     Check whether TYPE is defined.  It may be a compiler builtin type
+     or defined by the INCLUDES.  INCLUDES is a series of include
+     directives, defaulting to `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' (*note Default
+     Includes::), which are used prior to the type under test.
+
+     In C, TYPE must be a type-name, so that the expression `sizeof
+     (TYPE)' is valid (but `sizeof ((TYPE))' is not).  The same test is
+     applied when compiling for C++, which means that in C++ TYPE
+     should be a type-id and should not be an anonymous `struct' or
+     `union'.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_type_TYPE' variable,
+     with `*' mapped to `p' and other characters not suitable for a
+     variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TYPES (TYPES, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     For each TYPE of the TYPES that is defined, define `HAVE_TYPE' (in
+     all capitals).  Each TYPE must follow the rules of
+     `AC_CHECK_TYPE'.  If no INCLUDES are specified, the default
+     includes are used (*note Default Includes::).  If ACTION-IF-FOUND
+     is given, it is additional shell code to execute when one of the
+     types is found.  If ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is given, it is executed
+     when one of the types is not found.
+
+     This macro uses M4 lists:
+          AC_CHECK_TYPES([ptrdiff_t])
+          AC_CHECK_TYPES([unsigned long long int, uintmax_t])
+          AC_CHECK_TYPES([float_t], [], [], [[#include <math.h>]])
+
+
+   Autoconf, up to 2.13, used to provide to another version of
+`AC_CHECK_TYPE', broken by design.  In order to keep backward
+compatibility, a simple heuristic, quite safe but not totally, is
+implemented.  In case of doubt, read the documentation of the former
+`AC_CHECK_TYPE', see *note Obsolete Macros::.

+================================
+
+All the tests for compilers (`AC_PROG_CC', `AC_PROG_CXX',
+`AC_PROG_F77') define the output variable `EXEEXT' based on the output
+of the compiler, typically to the empty string if Posix and `.exe' if a
+DOS variant.
+
+   They also define the output variable `OBJEXT' based on the output of
+the compiler, after `.c' files have been excluded, typically to `o' if
+Posix, `obj' if a DOS variant.
+
+   If the compiler being used does not produce executables, the tests
+fail.  If the executables can't be run, and cross-compilation is not
+enabled, they fail too.  *Note Manual Configuration::, for more on

+
+5.10.1 Specific Compiler Characteristics
+----------------------------------------
+
+Some compilers exhibit different behaviors.
+
+Static/Dynamic Expressions
+     Autoconf relies on a trick to extract one bit of information from
+     the C compiler: using negative array sizes.  For instance the
+     following excerpt of a C source demonstrates how to test whether
+     `int' objects are 4 bytes wide:
+
+          static int test_array[sizeof (int) == 4 ? 1 : -1];
+
+     To our knowledge, there is a single compiler that does not support
+     this trick: the HP C compilers (the real ones, not only the
+     "bundled") on HP-UX 11.00.  They incorrectly reject the above
+     program with the diagnostic "Variable-length arrays cannot have
+     static storage."  This bug comes from HP compilers' mishandling of
+     `sizeof (int)', not from the `? 1 : -1', and Autoconf works around
+     this problem by casting `sizeof (int)' to `long int' before
+     comparing it.

+
+5.10.2 Generic Compiler Characteristics
+---------------------------------------
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_SIZEOF (TYPE-OR-EXPR, [UNUSED], [INCLUDES =
+          `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     Define `SIZEOF_TYPE-OR-EXPR' (*note Standard Symbols::) to be the
+     size in bytes of TYPE-OR-EXPR, which may be either a type or an
+     expression returning a value that has a size.  If the expression
+     `sizeof (TYPE-OR-EXPR)' is invalid, the result is 0.  INCLUDES is
+     a series of include directives, defaulting to
+     `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT' (*note Default Includes::), which are used
+     prior to the expression under test.
+
+     This macro now works even when cross-compiling.  The UNUSED
+     argument was used when cross-compiling.
+
+     For example, the call
+
+          AC_CHECK_SIZEOF([int *])
+
+     defines `SIZEOF_INT_P' to be 8 on DEC Alpha AXP systems.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_sizeof_TYPE-OR-EXPR'
+     variable, with `*' mapped to `p' and other characters not suitable
+     for a variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF (TYPE, [INCLUDES = `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'])
+     Define `ALIGNOF_TYPE' (*note Standard Symbols::) to be the
+     alignment in bytes of TYPE.  `TYPE y;' must be valid as a
+     structure member declaration.  If `type' is unknown, the result is
+     0.  If no INCLUDES are specified, the default includes are used
+     (*note Default Includes::).
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_alignof_TYPE-OR-EXPR'
+     variable, with `*' mapped to `p' and other characters not suitable
+     for a variable name mapped to underscores.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_COMPUTE_INT (VAR, EXPRESSION, [INCLUDES =
+          `AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT'], [ACTION-IF-FAILS])
+     Store into the shell variable VAR the value of the integer
+     EXPRESSION.  The value should fit in an initializer in a C
+     variable of type `signed long'.  To support cross compilation (in
+     which case, the macro only works on hosts that use twos-complement
+     arithmetic), it should be possible to evaluate the expression at
+     compile-time.  If no INCLUDES are specified, the default includes
+     are used (*note Default Includes::).
+
+     Execute ACTION-IF-FAILS if the value cannot be determined
+     correctly.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_WERROR
+     Normally Autoconf ignores warnings generated by the compiler,
+     linker, and preprocessor.  If this macro is used, warnings count
+     as fatal errors for the current language.  This macro is useful
+     when the results of configuration are used where warnings are
+     unacceptable; for instance, if parts of a program are built with
+     the GCC `-Werror' option.  If the whole program is built using
+     `-Werror' it is often simpler to put `-Werror' in the compiler
+     flags (`CFLAGS', etc.).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OPENMP
+     OpenMP (http://www.openmp.org/) specifies extensions of C, C++,
+     and Fortran that simplify optimization of shared memory
+     parallelism, which is a common problem on multicore CPUs.
+
+     If the current language is C, the macro `AC_OPENMP' sets the
+     variable `OPENMP_CFLAGS' to the C compiler flags needed for
+     supporting OpenMP.  `OPENMP_CFLAGS' is set to empty if the
+     compiler already supports OpenMP, if it has no way to activate
+     OpenMP support, or if the user rejects OpenMP support by invoking
+     `configure' with the `--disable-openmp' option.
+
+     `OPENMP_CFLAGS' needs to be used when compiling programs, when
+     preprocessing program source, and when linking programs.
+     Therefore you need to add `$(OPENMP_CFLAGS)' to the `CFLAGS' of C
+     programs that use OpenMP.  If you preprocess OpenMP-specific C
+     code, you also need to add `$(OPENMP_CFLAGS)' to `CPPFLAGS'.  The
+     presence of OpenMP support is revealed at compile time by the
+     preprocessor macro `_OPENMP'.
+
+     Linking a program with `OPENMP_CFLAGS' typically adds one more
+     shared library to the program's dependencies, so its use is
+     recommended only on programs that actually require OpenMP.
+
+     If the current language is C++, `AC_OPENMP' sets the variable
+     `OPENMP_CXXFLAGS', suitably for the C++ compiler.  The same remarks
+     hold as for C.
+
+     If the current language is Fortran 77 or Fortran, `AC_OPENMP' sets
+     the variable `OPENMP_FFLAGS' or `OPENMP_FCFLAGS', respectively.
+     Similar remarks as for C hold, except that `CPPFLAGS' is not used
+     for Fortran, and no preprocessor macro signals OpenMP support.
+
+     For portability, it is best to avoid spaces between `#' and
+     `pragma omp'.  That is, write `#pragma omp', not `# pragma omp'.
+     The Sun WorkShop 6.2 C compiler chokes on the latter.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_prog_c_openmp',
+     `ac_cv_prog_cxx_openmp', `ac_cv_prog_f77_openmp', or
+     `ac_cv_prog_fc_openmp' variable, depending on the current language.

+
+5.10.3 C Compiler Characteristics
+---------------------------------
+
+The following macros provide ways to find and exercise a C Compiler.
+There are a few constructs that ought to be avoided, but do not deserve
+being checked for, since they can easily be worked around.
+
+Don't use lines containing solitary backslashes
+     They tickle a bug in the HP-UX C compiler (checked on HP-UX 10.20,
+     11.00, and 11i).  When given the following source:
+
+          #ifdef __STDC__
+          /\
+          * A comment with backslash-newlines in it.  %{ %} *\
+          \
+          /
+          char str[] = "\\
+          " A string with backslash-newlines in it %{ %} \\
+          "";
+          char apostrophe = '\\
+          \
+          '\
+          ';
+          #endif
+
+     the compiler incorrectly fails with the diagnostics
+     "Non-terminating comment at end of file" and "Missing `#endif' at
+     end of file."  Removing the lines with solitary backslashes solves
+     the problem.
+
+Don't compile several files at once if output matters to you
+     Some compilers, such as HP's, report names of files being compiled
+     when given more than one file operand.  For instance:
+
+          $ cc a.c b.c
+          a.c:
+          b.c:
+
+     This can cause problems if you observe the output of the compiler
+     to detect failures.  Invoking `cc -c a.c && cc -c b.c && cc -o c
+     a.o b.o' solves the issue.
+
+Don't rely on `#error' failing
+     The IRIX C compiler does not fail when #error is preprocessed; it
+     simply emits a diagnostic and continues, exiting successfully.  So,
+     instead of an error directive like `#error "Unsupported word size"'
+     it is more portable to use an invalid directive like `#Unsupported
+     word size' in Autoconf tests.  In ordinary source code, `#error' is
+     OK, since installers with inadequate compilers like IRIX can simply
+     examine these compilers' diagnostic output.
+
+Don't rely on correct `#line' support
+     On Solaris, `c89' (at least Sun C 5.3 through 5.8) diagnoses
+     `#line' directives whose line numbers are greater than 32767.
+     Nothing in Posix makes this invalid.  That is why Autoconf stopped
+     issuing `#line' directives.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CC ([COMPILER-SEARCH-LIST])
+     Determine a C compiler to use.  If `CC' is not already set in the
+     environment, check for `gcc' and `cc', then for other C compilers.
+     Set output variable `CC' to the name of the compiler found.
+
+     This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+     which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of C compilers
+     to search for.  This just gives the user an opportunity to specify
+     an alternative search list for the C compiler.  For example, if
+     you didn't like the default order, then you could invoke
+     `AC_PROG_CC' like this:
+
+          AC_PROG_CC([gcc cl cc])
+
+     If the C compiler does not handle function prototypes correctly by
+     default, try to add an option to output variable `CC' to make it
+     so.  This macro tries various options that select
+     standard-conformance modes on various systems.
+
+     After calling this macro you can check whether the C compiler has
+     been set to accept ANSI C89 (ISO C90); if not, the shell variable
+     `ac_cv_prog_cc_c89' is set to `no'.  See also `AC_C_PROTOTYPES'
+     below.
+
+     If using the GNU C compiler, set shell variable `GCC' to `yes'.
+     If output variable `CFLAGS' was not already set, set it to `-g
+     -O2' for the GNU C compiler (`-O2' on systems where GCC does not
+     accept `-g'), or `-g' for other compilers.  If your package does
+     not like this default, then it is acceptable to insert the line `:
+     ${CFLAGS=""}' after `AC_INIT' and before `AC_PROG_CC' to select an
+     empty default instead.
+
+     Many Autoconf macros use a compiler, and thus call
+     `AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])' to ensure that the compiler has been
+     determined before the body of the outermost `AC_DEFUN' macro.
+     Although `AC_PROG_CC' is safe to directly expand multiple times, it
+     performs certain checks (such as the proper value of `EXEEXT') only
+     on the first invocation.  Therefore, care must be used when
+     invoking this macro from within another macro rather than at the
+     top level (*note Expanded Before Required::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CC_C_O
+     If the C compiler does not accept the `-c' and `-o' options
+     simultaneously, define `NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O'.  This macro actually
+     tests both the compiler found by `AC_PROG_CC', and, if different,
+     the first `cc' in the path.  The test fails if one fails.  This
+     macro was created for GNU Make to choose the default C compilation
+     rule.
+
+     For the compiler COMPILER, this macro caches its result in the
+     `ac_cv_prog_cc_COMPILER_c_o' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CPP
+     Set output variable `CPP' to a command that runs the C
+     preprocessor.  If `$CC -E' doesn't work, `/lib/cpp' is used.  It
+     is only portable to run `CPP' on files with a `.c' extension.
+
+     Some preprocessors don't indicate missing include files by the
+     error status.  For such preprocessors an internal variable is set
+     that causes other macros to check the standard error from the
+     preprocessor and consider the test failed if any warnings have
+     been reported.  For most preprocessors, though, warnings do not
+     cause include-file tests to fail unless `AC_PROG_CPP_WERROR' is
+     also specified.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CPP_WERROR
+     This acts like `AC_PROG_CPP', except it treats warnings from the
+     preprocessor as errors even if the preprocessor exit status
+     indicates success.  This is useful for avoiding headers that
+     generate mandatory warnings, such as deprecation notices.
+
+   The following macros check for C compiler or machine architecture
+features.  To check for characteristics not listed here, use
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' (*note Running the Compiler::) or `AC_RUN_IFELSE'
+(*note Runtime::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CC_STDC
+     If the C compiler cannot compile ISO Standard C (currently C99),
+     try to add an option to output variable `CC' to make it work.  If
+     the compiler does not support C99, fall back to supporting ANSI
+     C89 (ISO C90).
+
+     After calling this macro you can check whether the C compiler has
+     been set to accept Standard C; if not, the shell variable
+     `ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc' is set to `no'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CC_C89
+     If the C compiler is not in ANSI C89 (ISO C90) mode by default,
+     try to add an option to output variable `CC' to make it so.  This
+     macro tries various options that select ANSI C89 on some system or
+     another, preferring extended functionality modes over strict
+     conformance modes.  It considers the compiler to be in ANSI C89
+     mode if it handles function prototypes correctly.
+
+     After calling this macro you can check whether the C compiler has
+     been set to accept ANSI C89; if not, the shell variable
+     `ac_cv_prog_cc_c89' is set to `no'.
+
+     This macro is called automatically by `AC_PROG_CC'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CC_C99
+     If the C compiler is not in C99 mode by default, try to add an
+     option to output variable `CC' to make it so.  This macro tries
+     various options that select C99 on some system or another,
+     preferring extended functionality modes over strict conformance
+     modes.  It considers the compiler to be in C99 mode if it handles
+     `_Bool', `//' comments, flexible array members, `inline', signed
+     and unsigned `long long int', mixed code and declarations, named
+     initialization of structs, `restrict', `va_copy', varargs macros,
+     variable declarations in `for' loops, and variable length arrays.
+
+     After calling this macro you can check whether the C compiler has
+     been set to accept C99; if not, the shell variable
+     `ac_cv_prog_cc_c99' is set to `no'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_BACKSLASH_A
+     Define `HAVE_C_BACKSLASH_A' to 1 if the C compiler understands
+     `\a'.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers understand `\a'.
+     New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_BIGENDIAN ([ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE],
+          [ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN], [ACTION-IF-UNIVERSAL])
+     If words are stored with the most significant byte first (like
+     Motorola and SPARC CPUs), execute ACTION-IF-TRUE.  If words are
+     stored with the least significant byte first (like Intel and VAX
+     CPUs), execute ACTION-IF-FALSE.
+
+     This macro runs a test-case if endianness cannot be determined
+     from the system header files.  When cross-compiling, the test-case
+     is not run but grep'ed for some magic values.  ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN
+     is executed if the latter case fails to determine the byte sex of
+     the host system.
+
+     In some cases a single run of a compiler can generate code for
+     multiple architectures.  This can happen, for example, when
+     generating Mac OS X universal binary files, which work on both
+     PowerPC and Intel architectures.  In this case, the different
+     variants might be for different architectures whose endiannesses
+     differ.  If `configure' detects this, it executes
+     ACTION-IF-UNIVERSAL instead of ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN.
+
+     The default for ACTION-IF-TRUE is to define `WORDS_BIGENDIAN'.
+     The default for ACTION-IF-FALSE is to do nothing.  The default for
+     ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN is to abort configure and tell the installer how
+     to bypass this test.  And finally, the default for
+     ACTION-IF-UNIVERSAL is to ensure that `WORDS_BIGENDIAN' is defined
+     if and only if a universal build is detected and the current code
+     is big-endian; this default works only if `autoheader' is used
+     (*note autoheader Invocation::).
+
+     If you use this macro without specifying ACTION-IF-UNIVERSAL, you
+     should also use `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'; otherwise `WORDS_BIGENDIAN'
+     may be set incorrectly for Mac OS X universal binary files.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_CONST
+     If the C compiler does not fully support the `const' keyword,
+     define `const' to be empty.  Some C compilers that do not define
+     `__STDC__' do support `const'; some compilers that define
+     `__STDC__' do not completely support `const'.  Programs can simply
+     use `const' as if every C compiler supported it; for those that
+     don't, the makefile or configuration header file defines it as
+     empty.
+
+     Occasionally installers use a C++ compiler to compile C code,
+     typically because they lack a C compiler.  This causes problems
+     with `const', because C and C++ treat `const' differently.  For
+     example:
+
+          const int foo;
+
+     is valid in C but not in C++.  These differences unfortunately
+     cannot be papered over by defining `const' to be empty.
+
+     If `autoconf' detects this situation, it leaves `const' alone, as
+     this generally yields better results in practice.  However, using a
+     C++ compiler to compile C code is not recommended or supported, and
+     installers who run into trouble in this area should get a C
+     compiler like GCC to compile their C code.
+
+     This macro caches its result in the `ac_cv_c_const' variable.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers support `const'.
+     New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_RESTRICT
+     If the C compiler recognizes a variant spelling for the `restrict'
+     keyword (`__restrict', `__restrict__', or `_Restrict'), then
+     define `restrict' to that; this is more likely to do the right
+     thing with compilers that support language variants where plain
+     `restrict' is not a keyword.  Otherwise, if the C compiler
+     recognizes the `restrict' keyword, don't do anything.  Otherwise,
+     define `restrict' to be empty.  Thus, programs may simply use
+     `restrict' as if every C compiler supported it; for those that do
+     not, the makefile or configuration header defines it away.
+
+     Although support in C++ for the `restrict' keyword is not
+     required, several C++ compilers do accept the keyword.  This macro
+     works for them, too.
+
+     This macro caches `no' in the `ac_cv_c_restrict' variable if
+     `restrict' is not supported, and a supported spelling otherwise.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_VOLATILE
+     If the C compiler does not understand the keyword `volatile',
+     define `volatile' to be empty.  Programs can simply use `volatile'
+     as if every C compiler supported it; for those that do not, the
+     makefile or configuration header defines it as empty.
+
+     If the correctness of your program depends on the semantics of
+     `volatile', simply defining it to be empty does, in a sense, break
+     your code.  However, given that the compiler does not support
+     `volatile', you are at its mercy anyway.  At least your program
+     compiles, when it wouldn't before.  *Note Volatile Objects::, for
+     more about `volatile'.
+
+     In general, the `volatile' keyword is a standard C feature, so you
+     might expect that `volatile' is available only when `__STDC__' is
+     defined.  However, Ultrix 4.3's native compiler does support
+     volatile, but does not define `__STDC__'.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers support
+     `volatile'.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_INLINE
+     If the C compiler supports the keyword `inline', do nothing.
+     Otherwise define `inline' to `__inline__' or `__inline' if it
+     accepts one of those, otherwise define `inline' to be empty.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED
+     If the C type `char' is unsigned, define `__CHAR_UNSIGNED__',
+     unless the C compiler predefines it.
+
+     These days, using this macro is not necessary.  The same
+     information can be determined by this portable alternative, thus
+     avoiding the use of preprocessor macros in the namespace reserved
+     for the implementation.
+
+          #include <limits.h>
+          #if CHAR_MIN == 0
+          # define CHAR_UNSIGNED 1
+          #endif
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_STRINGIZE
+     If the C preprocessor supports the stringizing operator, define
+     `HAVE_STRINGIZE'.  The stringizing operator is `#' and is found in
+     macros such as this:
+
+          #define x(y) #y
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers support the
+     stringizing operator.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER
+     If the C compiler supports flexible array members, define
+     `FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER' to nothing; otherwise define it to 1.
+     That way, a declaration like this:
+
+          struct s
+            {
+              size_t n_vals;
+              double val[FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER];
+            };
+
+     will let applications use the "struct hack" even with compilers
+     that do not support flexible array members.  To allocate and use
+     such an object, you can use code like this:
+
+          size_t i;
+          size_t n = compute_value_count ();
+          struct s *p =
+             malloc (offsetof (struct s, val)
+                     + n * sizeof (double));
+          p->n_vals = n;
+          for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
+            p->val[i] = compute_value (i);
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_VARARRAYS
+     If the C compiler supports variable-length arrays, define
+     `HAVE_C_VARARRAYS'.  A variable-length array is an array of
+     automatic storage duration whose length is determined at run time,
+     when the array is declared.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_TYPEOF
+     If the C compiler supports GCC's `typeof' syntax either directly or
+     through a different spelling of the keyword (e.g., `__typeof__'),
+     define `HAVE_TYPEOF'.  If the support is available only through a
+     different spelling, define `typeof' to that spelling.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_PROTOTYPES
+     If function prototypes are understood by the compiler (as
+     determined by `AC_PROG_CC'), define `PROTOTYPES' and
+     `__PROTOTYPES'.  Defining `__PROTOTYPES' is for the benefit of
+     header files that cannot use macros that infringe on user name
+     space.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, as current C compilers support
+     prototypes.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL
+     Add `-traditional' to output variable `CC' if using the GNU C
+     compiler and `ioctl' does not work properly without
+     `-traditional'.  That usually happens when the fixed header files
+     have not been installed on an old system.
+
+     This macro is obsolescent, since current versions of the GNU C
+     compiler fix the header files automatically when installed.

+5.10.4 C++ Compiler Characteristics
+-----------------------------------
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CXX ([COMPILER-SEARCH-LIST])
+     Determine a C++ compiler to use.  Check whether the environment
+     variable `CXX' or `CCC' (in that order) is set; if so, then set
+     output variable `CXX' to its value.
+
+     Otherwise, if the macro is invoked without an argument, then
+     search for a C++ compiler under the likely names (first `g++' and
+     `c++' then other names).  If none of those checks succeed, then as
+     a last resort set `CXX' to `g++'.
+
+     This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+     which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of C++
+     compilers to search for.  This just gives the user an opportunity
+     to specify an alternative search list for the C++ compiler.  For
+     example, if you didn't like the default order, then you could
+     invoke `AC_PROG_CXX' like this:
+
+          AC_PROG_CXX([gcc cl KCC CC cxx cc++ xlC aCC c++ g++])
+
+     If using the GNU C++ compiler, set shell variable `GXX' to `yes'.
+     If output variable `CXXFLAGS' was not already set, set it to `-g
+     -O2' for the GNU C++ compiler (`-O2' on systems where G++ does not
+     accept `-g'), or `-g' for other compilers.  If your package does
+     not like this default, then it is acceptable to insert the line `:
+     ${CXXFLAGS=""}' after `AC_INIT' and before `AC_PROG_CXX' to select
+     an empty default instead.
+
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CXXCPP
+     Set output variable `CXXCPP' to a command that runs the C++
+     preprocessor.  If `$CXX -E' doesn't work, `/lib/cpp' is used.  It
+     is portable to run `CXXCPP' only on files with a `.c', `.C',
+     `.cc', or `.cpp' extension.
+
+     Some preprocessors don't indicate missing include files by the
+     error status.  For such preprocessors an internal variable is set
+     that causes other macros to check the standard error from the
+     preprocessor and consider the test failed if any warnings have
+     been reported.  However, it is not known whether such broken
+     preprocessors exist for C++.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_CXX_C_O
+     Test whether the C++ compiler accepts the options `-c' and `-o'
+     simultaneously, and define `CXX_NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O', if it does
+     not.

+     output variable `OBJC' to the name of the compiler found.
+
+     This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+     which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of Objective C
+     compilers to search for.  This just gives the user an opportunity
+     to specify an alternative search list for the Objective C
+     compiler.  For example, if you didn't like the default order, then
+     you could invoke `AC_PROG_OBJC' like this:
+
+          AC_PROG_OBJC([gcc objcc objc])
+
+     If using the GNU Objective C compiler, set shell variable `GOBJC'
+     to `yes'.  If output variable `OBJCFLAGS' was not already set, set
+     it to `-g -O2' for the GNU Objective C compiler (`-O2' on systems
+     where `gcc' does not accept `-g'), or `-g' for other compilers.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_OBJCPP
+     Set output variable `OBJCPP' to a command that runs the Objective C
+     preprocessor.  If `$OBJC -E' doesn't work, `/lib/cpp' is used.

+     already set in the environment, check for Objective C++ compilers.
+     Set output variable `OBJCXX' to the name of the compiler found.
+
+     This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+     which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of Objective
+     C++ compilers to search for.  This just gives the user an
+     opportunity to specify an alternative search list for the
+     Objective C++ compiler.  For example, if you didn't like the

+          AC_PROG_OBJCXX([gcc g++ objcc++ objcxx])
+
+     If using the GNU Objective C++ compiler, set shell variable

+
+5.10.7 Erlang Compiler and Interpreter Characteristics
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+Autoconf defines the following macros for determining paths to the
+essential Erlang/OTP programs:
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC ([VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Determine an Erlang compiler to use.  If `ERLC' is not already set
+     in the environment, check for `erlc'.  Set output variable `ERLC'
+     to the complete path of the compiler command found.  In addition,
+     if `ERLCFLAGS' is not set in the environment, set it to an empty
+     value.
+
+     The two optional arguments have the same meaning as the two last
+     arguments of macro `AC_PATH_PROG' for looking for the `erlc'
+     program.  For example, to look for `erlc' only in the
+     `/usr/lib/erlang/bin' directory:
+
+          AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC([not found], [/usr/lib/erlang/bin])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERLC ([PATH = `$PATH'])
+     A simplified variant of the `AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC' macro, that
+     prints an error message and exits the `configure' script if the
+     `erlc' program is not found.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL ([VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND], [PATH = `$PATH'])
+     Determine an Erlang interpreter to use.  If `ERL' is not already
+     set in the environment, check for `erl'.  Set output variable
+     `ERL' to the complete path of the interpreter command found.
+
+     The two optional arguments have the same meaning as the two last
+     arguments of macro `AC_PATH_PROG' for looking for the `erl'
+     program.  For example, to look for `erl' only in the
+     `/usr/lib/erlang/bin' directory:
+
+          AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL([not found], [/usr/lib/erlang/bin])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERL ([PATH = `$PATH'])
+     A simplified variant of the `AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL' macro, that
+     prints an error message and exits the `configure' script if the
+     `erl' program is not found.

+
+5.10.8 Fortran Compiler Characteristics
+---------------------------------------
+
+The Autoconf Fortran support is divided into two categories: legacy
+Fortran 77 macros (`F77'), and modern Fortran macros (`FC').  The
+former are intended for traditional Fortran 77 code, and have output
+variables like `F77', `FFLAGS', and `FLIBS'.  The latter are for newer
+programs that can (or must) compile under the newer Fortran standards,
+and have output variables like `FC', `FCFLAGS', and `FCLIBS'.
+
+   Except for the macros `AC_FC_SRCEXT', `AC_FC_FREEFORM',
+`AC_FC_FIXEDFORM', and `AC_FC_LINE_LENGTH' (see below), the `FC' and
+`F77' macros behave almost identically, and so they are documented
+together in this section.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_F77 ([COMPILER-SEARCH-LIST])
+     Determine a Fortran 77 compiler to use.  If `F77' is not already
+     set in the environment, then check for `g77' and `f77', and then
+     some other names.  Set the output variable `F77' to the name of
+     the compiler found.
+
+     This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+     which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of Fortran 77
+     compilers to search for.  This just gives the user an opportunity
+     to specify an alternative search list for the Fortran 77 compiler.
+     For example, if you didn't like the default order, then you could
+     invoke `AC_PROG_F77' like this:
+
+          AC_PROG_F77([fl32 f77 fort77 xlf g77 f90 xlf90])
+
+     If using `g77' (the GNU Fortran 77 compiler), then set the shell
+     variable `G77' to `yes'.  If the output variable `FFLAGS' was not
+     already set in the environment, then set it to `-g -02' for `g77'
+     (or `-O2' where `g77' does not accept `-g').  Otherwise, set
+     `FFLAGS' to `-g' for all other Fortran 77 compilers.
+
+     The result of the GNU test is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_f77_compiler_gnu' variable, acceptance of `-g' in the
+     `ac_cv_prog_f77_g' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_FC ([COMPILER-SEARCH-LIST], [DIALECT])
+     Determine a Fortran compiler to use.  If `FC' is not already set in
+     the environment, then `dialect' is a hint to indicate what Fortran
+     dialect to search for; the default is to search for the newest
+     available dialect.  Set the output variable `FC' to the name of
+     the compiler found.
+
+     By default, newer dialects are preferred over older dialects, but
+     if `dialect' is specified then older dialects are preferred
+     starting with the specified dialect.  `dialect' can currently be
+     one of Fortran 77, Fortran 90, or Fortran 95.  However, this is
+     only a hint of which compiler _name_ to prefer (e.g., `f90' or
+     `f95'), and no attempt is made to guarantee that a particular
+     language standard is actually supported.  Thus, it is preferable
+     that you avoid the `dialect' option, and use AC_PROG_FC only for
+     code compatible with the latest Fortran standard.
+
+     This macro may, alternatively, be invoked with an optional first
+     argument which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of
+     Fortran compilers to search for, just as in `AC_PROG_F77'.
+
+     If using `gfortran' or `g77' (the GNU Fortran compilers), then set
+     the shell variable `GFC' to `yes'.  If the output variable
+     `FCFLAGS' was not already set in the environment, then set it to
+     `-g -02' for GNU `g77' (or `-O2' where `g77' does not accept
+     `-g').  Otherwise, set `FCFLAGS' to `-g' for all other Fortran
+     compilers.
+
+     The result of the GNU test is cached in the `ac_cv_fc_compiler_gnu'
+     variable, acceptance of `-g' in the `ac_cv_prog_fc_g' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_F77_C_O
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_FC_C_O
+     Test whether the Fortran compiler accepts the options `-c' and
+     `-o' simultaneously, and define `F77_NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O' or
+     `FC_NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O', respectively, if it does not.
+
+     The result of the test is cached in the `ac_cv_prog_f77_c_o' or
+     `ac_cv_prog_fc_c_o' variable, respectively.
+
+   The following macros check for Fortran compiler characteristics.  To
+check for characteristics not listed here, use `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE'
+(*note Running the Compiler::) or `AC_RUN_IFELSE' (*note Runtime::),
+making sure to first set the current language to Fortran 77 or Fortran
+via `AC_LANG([Fortran 77])' or `AC_LANG(Fortran)' (*note Language
+Choice::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS
+     Determine the linker flags (e.g., `-L' and `-l') for the "Fortran
+     intrinsic and runtime libraries" that are required to successfully
+     link a Fortran program or shared library.  The output variable
+     `FLIBS' or `FCLIBS' is set to these flags (which should be
+     included after `LIBS' when linking).
+
+     This macro is intended to be used in those situations when it is
+     necessary to mix, e.g., C++ and Fortran source code in a single
+     program or shared library (*note Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++:
+     (automake)Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++.).
+
+     For example, if object files from a C++ and Fortran compiler must
+     be linked together, then the C++ compiler/linker must be used for
+     linking (since special C++-ish things need to happen at link time
+     like calling global constructors, instantiating templates,
+     enabling exception support, etc.).
+
+     However, the Fortran intrinsic and runtime libraries must be
+     linked in as well, but the C++ compiler/linker doesn't know by
+     default how to add these Fortran 77 libraries.  Hence, this macro
+     was created to determine these Fortran libraries.
+
+     The macros `AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN' and `AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN' or
+     `AC_F77_MAIN' and `AC_FC_MAIN' are probably also necessary to link
+     C/C++ with Fortran; see below.  Further, it is highly recommended
+     that you use `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' (*note Configuration Headers::)
+     because the complex defines that the function wrapper macros create
+     may not work with C/C++ compiler drivers.
+
+     These macros internally compute the flag needed to verbose linking
+     output and cache it in `ac_cv_prog_f77_v' or `ac_cv_prog_fc_v'
+     variables, respectively.  The computed linker flags are cached in
+     `ac_cv_f77_libs' or `ac_cv_fc_libs', respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN ([ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN ([ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     With many compilers, the Fortran libraries detected by
+     `AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS' or `AC_FC_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS' provide their
+     own `main' entry function that initializes things like Fortran
+     I/O, and which then calls a user-provided entry function named
+     (say) `MAIN__' to run the user's program.  The `AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN'
+     and `AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN' or `AC_F77_MAIN' and `AC_FC_MAIN' macros
+     figure out how to deal with this interaction.
+
+     When using Fortran for purely numerical functions (no I/O, etc.)
+     often one prefers to provide one's own `main' and skip the Fortran
+     library initializations.  In this case, however, one may still
+     need to provide a dummy `MAIN__' routine in order to prevent
+     linking errors on some systems.  `AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN' or
+     `AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN' detects whether any such routine is _required_
+     for linking, and what its name is; the shell variable
+     `F77_DUMMY_MAIN' or `FC_DUMMY_MAIN' holds this name, `unknown'
+     when no solution was found, and `none' when no such dummy main is
+     needed.
+
+     By default, ACTION-IF-FOUND defines `F77_DUMMY_MAIN' or
+     `FC_DUMMY_MAIN' to the name of this routine (e.g., `MAIN__') _if_
+     it is required.  ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND defaults to exiting with an
+     error.
+
+     In order to link with Fortran routines, the user's C/C++ program
+     should then include the following code to define the dummy main if
+     it is needed:
+
+          #ifdef F77_DUMMY_MAIN
+          #  ifdef __cplusplus
+               extern "C"
+          #  endif
+             int F77_DUMMY_MAIN () { return 1; }
+          #endif
+
+     (Replace `F77' with `FC' for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)
+
+     Note that this macro is called automatically from `AC_F77_WRAPPERS'
+     or `AC_FC_WRAPPERS'; there is generally no need to call it
+     explicitly unless one wants to change the default actions.
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_f77_dummy_main' or
+     `ac_cv_fc_dummy_main' variable, respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_MAIN
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_MAIN
+     As discussed above, many Fortran libraries allow you to provide an
+     entry point called (say) `MAIN__' instead of the usual `main',
+     which is then called by a `main' function in the Fortran libraries
+     that initializes things like Fortran I/O.  The `AC_F77_MAIN' and
+     `AC_FC_MAIN' macros detect whether it is _possible_ to utilize
+     such an alternate main function, and defines `F77_MAIN' and
+     `FC_MAIN' to the name of the function.  (If no alternate main
+     function name is found, `F77_MAIN' and `FC_MAIN' are simply
+     defined to `main'.)
+
+     Thus, when calling Fortran routines from C that perform things
+     like I/O, one should use this macro and declare the "main"
+     function like so:
+
+          #ifdef __cplusplus
+            extern "C"
+          #endif
+          int F77_MAIN (int argc, char *argv[]);
+
+     (Again, replace `F77' with `FC' for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)
+
+     The result of this macro is cached in the `ac_cv_f77_main' or
+     `ac_cv_fc_main' variable, respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_WRAPPERS
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_WRAPPERS
+     Defines C macros `F77_FUNC (name, NAME)', `FC_FUNC (name, NAME)',
+     `F77_FUNC_(name, NAME)', and `FC_FUNC_(name, NAME)' to properly
+     mangle the names of C/C++ identifiers, and identifiers with
+     underscores, respectively, so that they match the name-mangling
+     scheme used by the Fortran compiler.
+
+     Fortran is case-insensitive, and in order to achieve this the
+     Fortran compiler converts all identifiers into a canonical case
+     and format.  To call a Fortran subroutine from C or to write a C
+     function that is callable from Fortran, the C program must
+     explicitly use identifiers in the format expected by the Fortran
+     compiler.  In order to do this, one simply wraps all C identifiers
+     in one of the macros provided by `AC_F77_WRAPPERS' or
+     `AC_FC_WRAPPERS'.  For example, suppose you have the following
+     Fortran 77 subroutine:
+
+                subroutine foobar (x, y)
+                double precision x, y
+                y = 3.14159 * x
+                return
+                end
+
+     You would then declare its prototype in C or C++ as:
+
+          #define FOOBAR_F77 F77_FUNC (foobar, FOOBAR)
+          #ifdef __cplusplus
+          extern "C"  /* prevent C++ name mangling */
+          #endif
+          void FOOBAR_F77 (double *x, double *y);
+
+     Note that we pass both the lowercase and uppercase versions of the
+     function name to `F77_FUNC' so that it can select the right one.
+     Note also that all parameters to Fortran 77 routines are passed as
+     pointers (*note Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++: (automake)Mixing
+     Fortran 77 With C and C++.).
+
+     (Replace `F77' with `FC' for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)
+
+     Although Autoconf tries to be intelligent about detecting the
+     name-mangling scheme of the Fortran compiler, there may be Fortran
+     compilers that it doesn't support yet.  In this case, the above
+     code generates a compile-time error, but some other behavior
+     (e.g., disabling Fortran-related features) can be induced by
+     checking whether `F77_FUNC' or `FC_FUNC' is defined.
+
+     Now, to call that routine from a C program, we would do something
+     like:
+
+          {
+              double x = 2.7183, y;
+              FOOBAR_F77 (&x, &y);
+          }
+
+     If the Fortran identifier contains an underscore (e.g., `foo_bar'),
+     you should use `F77_FUNC_' or `FC_FUNC_' instead of `F77_FUNC' or
+     `FC_FUNC' (with the same arguments).  This is because some Fortran
+     compilers mangle names differently if they contain an underscore.
+
+     The name mangling scheme is encoded in the `ac_cv_f77_mangling' or
+     `ac_cv_fc_mangling' cache variable, respectively, and also used for
+     the `AC_F77_FUNC' and `AC_FC_FUNC' macros described below.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_FUNC (NAME, [SHELLVAR])
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_FUNC (NAME, [SHELLVAR])
+     Given an identifier NAME, set the shell variable SHELLVAR to hold
+     the mangled version NAME according to the rules of the Fortran
+     linker (see also `AC_F77_WRAPPERS' or `AC_FC_WRAPPERS').  SHELLVAR
+     is optional; if it is not supplied, the shell variable is simply
+     NAME.  The purpose of this macro is to give the caller a way to
+     access the name-mangling information other than through the C
+     preprocessor as above, for example, to call Fortran routines from
+     some language other than C/C++.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_SRCEXT (EXT, [ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT (EXT, [ACTION-IF-SUCCESS],
+          [ACTION-IF-FAILURE = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     By default, the `FC' macros perform their tests using a `.f'
+     extension for source-code files.  Some compilers, however, only
+     enable newer language features for appropriately named files,
+     e.g., Fortran 90 features only for `.f90' files, or preprocessing
+     only with `.F' files or maybe other upper-case extensions.  On the
+     other hand, some other compilers expect all source files to end in
+     `.f' and require special flags to support other file name
+     extensions.  The `AC_FC_SRCEXT' and `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT' macros deal
+     with these issues.
+
+     The `AC_FC_SRCEXT' macro tries to get the `FC' compiler to accept
+     files ending with the extension `.EXT' (i.e., EXT does _not_
+     contain the dot).  If any special compiler flags are needed for
+     this, it stores them in the output variable `FCFLAGS_EXT'.  This
+     extension and these flags are then used for all subsequent `FC'
+     tests (until `AC_FC_SRCEXT' or `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT' is called another
+     time).
+
+     For example, you would use `AC_FC_SRCEXT(f90)' to employ the
+     `.f90' extension in future tests, and it would set the
+     `FCFLAGS_f90' output variable with any extra flags that are needed
+     to compile such files.
+
+     Similarly, the `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT' macro tries to get the `FC'
+     compiler to preprocess and compile files with the extension
+     `.EXT'.  When both `fpp' and `cpp' style preprocessing are
+     provided, the former is preferred, as the latter may treat
+     continuation lines, `//' tokens, and white space differently from
+     what some Fortran dialects expect.  Conversely, if you do not want
+     files to be preprocessed, use only lower-case characters in the
+     file name extension.  Like with `AC_FC_SRCEXT(f90)', any needed
+     flags are stored in the `FCFLAGS_EXT' variable.
+
+     The `FCFLAGS_EXT' flags can _not_ be simply absorbed into
+     `FCFLAGS', for two reasons based on the limitations of some
+     compilers.  First, only one `FCFLAGS_EXT' can be used at a time,
+     so files with different extensions must be compiled separately.
+     Second, `FCFLAGS_EXT' must appear _immediately_ before the
+     source-code file name when compiling.  So, continuing the example
+     above, you might compile a `foo.f90' file in your makefile with the
+     command:
+
+          foo.o: foo.f90
+                 $(FC) -c $(FCFLAGS) $(FCFLAGS_f90) '$(srcdir)/foo.f90'
+
+     If `AC_FC_SRCEXT' or `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT' succeeds in compiling files
+     with the EXT extension, it calls ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to
+     nothing).  If it fails, and cannot find a way to make the `FC'
+     compiler accept such files, it calls ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults
+     to exiting with an error message).
+
+     The `AC_FC_SRCEXT' and `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT' macros cache their
+     results in `ac_cv_fc_srcext_EXT' and `ac_cv_fc_pp_srcext_EXT'
+     variables, respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_PP_DEFINE ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Find a flag to specify defines for preprocessed Fortran.  Not all
+     Fortran compilers use `-D'.  Substitute `FC_DEFINE' with the
+     result and call ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing) if
+     successful, and ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to failing with an
+     error message) if not.
+
+     This macro calls `AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT([F])' in order to learn how to
+     preprocess a `conftest.F' file, but restores a previously used
+     Fortran source file extension afterwards again.
+
+     The result of this test is cached in the `ac_cv_fc_pp_define'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_FREEFORM ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Try to ensure that the Fortran compiler (`$FC') allows free-format
+     source code (as opposed to the older fixed-format style from
+     Fortran 77).  If necessary, it may add some additional flags to
+     `FCFLAGS'.
+
+     This macro is most important if you are using the default `.f'
+     extension, since many compilers interpret this extension as
+     indicating fixed-format source unless an additional flag is
+     supplied.  If you specify a different extension with
+     `AC_FC_SRCEXT', such as `.f90', then `AC_FC_FREEFORM' ordinarily
+     succeeds without modifying `FCFLAGS'.  For extensions which the
+     compiler does not know about, the flag set by the `AC_FC_SRCEXT'
+     macro might let the compiler assume Fortran 77 by default, however.
+
+     If `AC_FC_FREEFORM' succeeds in compiling free-form source, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing).  If it fails, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to exiting with an error
+     message).
+
+     The result of this test, or `none' or `unknown', is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_fc_freeform' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_FIXEDFORM ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Try to ensure that the Fortran compiler (`$FC') allows the old
+     fixed-format source code (as opposed to free-format style).  If
+     necessary, it may add some additional flags to `FCFLAGS'.
+
+     This macro is needed for some compilers alias names like `xlf95'
+     which assume free-form source code by default, and in case you
+     want to use fixed-form source with an extension like `.f90' which
+     many compilers interpret as free-form by default.  If you specify
+     a different extension with `AC_FC_SRCEXT', such as `.f', then
+     `AC_FC_FIXEDFORM' ordinarily succeeds without modifying `FCFLAGS'.
+
+     If `AC_FC_FIXEDFORM' succeeds in compiling fixed-form source, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing).  If it fails, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to exiting with an error
+     message).
+
+     The result of this test, or `none' or `unknown', is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_fc_fixedform' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_LINE_LENGTH ([LENGTH], [ACTION-IF-SUCCESS],
+          [ACTION-IF-FAILURE = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Try to ensure that the Fortran compiler (`$FC') accepts long source
+     code lines.  The LENGTH argument may be given as 80, 132, or
+     unlimited, and defaults to 132.  Note that line lengths above 254
+     columns are not portable, and some compilers do not accept more
+     than 132 columns at least for fixed format source.  If necessary,
+     it may add some additional flags to `FCFLAGS'.
+
+     If `AC_FC_LINE_LENGTH' succeeds in compiling fixed-form source, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing).  If it fails, it
+     calls ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to exiting with an error
+     message).
+
+     The result of this test, or `none' or `unknown', is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_fc_line_length' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE
+          = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     The `AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS' macro tries to enable array bounds
+     checking in the Fortran compiler.  If successful, the
+     ACTION-IF-SUCCESS is called and any needed flags are added to
+     `FCFLAGS'.  Otherwise, ACTION-IF-FAILURE is called, which defaults
+     to failing with an error message.  The macro currently requires
+     Fortran 90 or a newer dialect.
+
+     The result of the macro is cached in the `ac_cv_fc_check_bounds'
+     variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_F77_IMPLICIT_NONE ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS],
+          [ACTION-IF-FAILURE = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_IMPLICIT_NONE ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE
+          = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Try to disallow implicit declarations in the Fortran compiler.  If
+     successful, ACTION-IF-SUCCESS is called and any needed flags are
+     added to `FFLAGS' or `FCFLAGS', respectively.  Otherwise,
+     ACTION-IF-FAILURE is called, which defaults to failing with an
+     error message.
+
+     The result of these macros are cached in the
+     `ac_cv_f77_implicit_none' and `ac_cv_fc_implicit_none' variables,
+     respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION
+     Find the Fortran 90 module file name extension.  Most Fortran 90
+     compilers store module information in files separate from the
+     object files.  The module files are usually named after the name
+     of the module rather than the source file name, with characters
+     possibly turned to upper case, plus an extension, often `.mod'.
+
+     Not all compilers use module files at all, or by default.  The Cray
+     Fortran compiler requires `-e m' in order to store and search
+     module information in `.mod' files rather than in object files.
+     Likewise, the Fujitsu Fortran compilers uses the `-Am' option to
+     indicate how module information is stored.
+
+     The `AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION' macro computes the module extension
+     without the leading dot, and stores that in the `FC_MODEXT'
+     variable.  If the compiler does not produce module files, or the
+     extension cannot be determined, `FC_MODEXT' is empty.  Typically,
+     the result of this macro may be used in cleanup `make' rules as
+     follows:
+
+          clean-modules:
+                  -test -z "$(FC_MODEXT)" || rm -f *.$(FC_MODEXT)
+
+     The extension, or `unknown', is cached in the
+     `ac_cv_fc_module_ext' variable.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS], [ACTION-IF-FAILURE =
+          `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Find the compiler flag to include Fortran 90 module information
+     from another directory, and store that in the `FC_MODINC' variable.
+     Call ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing) if successful, and
+     set `FC_MODINC' to empty and call ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to
+     exiting with an error message) if not.
+
+     Most Fortran 90 compilers provide a way to specify module
+     directories.  Some have separate flags for the directory to write
+     module files to, and directories to search them in, whereas others
+     only allow writing to the current directory or to the first
+     directory specified in the include path.  Further, with some
+     compilers, the module search path and the preprocessor search path
+     can only be modified with the same flag.  Thus, for portability,
+     write module files to the current directory only and list that as
+     first directory in the search path.
+
+     There may be no whitespace between `FC_MODINC' and the following
+     directory name, but `FC_MODINC' may contain trailing white space.
+     For example, if you use Automake and would like to search `../lib'
+     for module files, you can use the following:
+
+          AM_FCFLAGS = $(FC_MODINC). $(FC_MODINC)../lib
+
+     Inside `configure' tests, you can use:
+
+          if test -n "$FC_MODINC"; then
+            FCFLAGS="$FCFLAGS $FC_MODINC. $FC_MODINC../lib"
+          fi
+
+     The flag is cached in the `ac_cv_fc_module_flag' variable.  The
+     substituted value of `FC_MODINC' may refer to the `ac_empty' dummy
+     placeholder empty variable, to avoid losing the significant
+     trailing whitespace in a `Makefile'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FC_MODULE_OUTPUT_FLAG ([ACTION-IF-SUCCESS],
+          [ACTION-IF-FAILURE = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Find the compiler flag to write Fortran 90 module information to
+     another directory, and store that in the `FC_MODOUT' variable.
+     Call ACTION-IF-SUCCESS (defaults to nothing) if successful, and
+     set `FC_MODOUT' to empty and call ACTION-IF-FAILURE (defaults to
+     exiting with an error message) if not.
+
+     Not all Fortran 90 compilers write module files, and of those that
+     do, not all allow writing to a directory other than the current
+     one, nor do all have separate flags for writing and reading; see
+     the description of `AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG' above.  If you need to be
+     able to write to another directory, for maximum portability use
+     `FC_MODOUT' before any `FC_MODINC' and include both the current
+     directory and the one you write to in the search path:
+
+          AM_FCFLAGS = $(FC_MODOUT)../mod $(FC_MODINC)../mod $(FC_MODINC). ...
+
+     The flag is cached in the `ac_cv_fc_module_output_flag' variable.
+     The substituted value of `FC_MODOUT' may refer to the `ac_empty'
+     dummy placeholder empty variable, to avoid losing the significant
+     trailing whitespace in a `Makefile'.

+5.10.9 Go Compiler Characteristics
+----------------------------------
+
+Autoconf provides basic support for the Go programming language when
+using the `gccgo' compiler (there is currently no support for the `6g'
+and `8g' compilers).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROG_GO ([COMPILER-SEARCH-LIST])
+     Find the Go compiler to use.  Check whether the environment
+     variable `GOC' is set; if so, then set output variable `GOC' to its
+     value.
+
+     Otherwise, if the macro is invoked without an argument, then
+     search for a Go compiler named `gccgo'.  If it is not found, then
+     as a last resort set `GOC' to `gccgo'.
+
+     This macro may be invoked with an optional first argument which, if
+     specified, must be a blank-separated list of Go compilers to
+     search for.
+
+     If output variable `GOFLAGS' was not already set, set it to `-g
+     -O2'.  If your package does not like this default, `GOFLAGS' may
+     be set before `AC_PROG_GO'.

+
+5.11 System Services
+====================
+
+The following macros check for operating system services or
+capabilities.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_X
+     Try to locate the X Window System include files and libraries.  If
+     the user gave the command line options `--x-includes=DIR' and
+     `--x-libraries=DIR', use those directories.
+
+     If either or both were not given, get the missing values by running
+     `xmkmf' (or an executable pointed to by the `XMKMF' environment
+     variable) on a trivial `Imakefile' and examining the makefile that
+     it produces.  Setting `XMKMF' to `false' disables this method.
+
+     If this method fails to find the X Window System, `configure'
+     looks for the files in several directories where they often reside.
+     If either method is successful, set the shell variables
+     `x_includes' and `x_libraries' to their locations, unless they are
+     in directories the compiler searches by default.
+
+     If both methods fail, or the user gave the command line option
+     `--without-x', set the shell variable `no_x' to `yes'; otherwise
+     set it to the empty string.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PATH_XTRA
+     An enhanced version of `AC_PATH_X'.  It adds the C compiler flags
+     that X needs to output variable `X_CFLAGS', and the X linker flags
+     to `X_LIBS'.  Define `X_DISPLAY_MISSING' if X is not available.
+
+     This macro also checks for special libraries that some systems
+     need in order to compile X programs.  It adds any that the system
+     needs to output variable `X_EXTRA_LIBS'.  And it checks for
+     special X11R6 libraries that need to be linked with before
+     `-lX11', and adds any found to the output variable `X_PRE_LIBS'.
+
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_INTERPRETER
+     Check whether the system supports starting scripts with a line of
+     the form `#!/bin/sh' to select the interpreter to use for the
+     script.  After running this macro, shell code in `configure.ac'
+     can check the shell variable `interpval'; it is set to `yes' if
+     the system supports `#!', `no' if not.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
+     Arrange for 64-bit file offsets, known as large-file support
+     (http://www.unix-systems.org/version2/whatsnew/lfs20mar.html).  On
+     some hosts, one must use special compiler options to build
+     programs that can access large files.  Append any such options to
+     the output variable `CC'.  Define `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' and
+     `_LARGE_FILES' if necessary.
+
+     Large-file support can be disabled by configuring with the
+     `--disable-largefile' option.
+
+     If you use this macro, check that your program works even when
+     `off_t' is wider than `long int', since this is common when
+     large-file support is enabled.  For example, it is not correct to
+     print an arbitrary `off_t' value `X' with `printf ("%ld", (long
+     int) X)'.
+
+     The LFS introduced the `fseeko' and `ftello' functions to replace
+     their C counterparts `fseek' and `ftell' that do not use `off_t'.
+     Take care to use `AC_FUNC_FSEEKO' to make their prototypes
+     available when using them and large-file support is enabled.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_LONG_FILE_NAMES
+     If the system supports file names longer than 14 characters, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_FILE_NAMES'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_POSIX_TERMIOS
+     Check to see if the Posix termios headers and functions are
+     available on the system.  If so, set the shell variable
+     `ac_cv_sys_posix_termios' to `yes'.  If not, set the variable to
+     `no'.

+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Posix Variants,  Next: Erlang Libraries,  Prev: System Services,  Up: Existing Tests
+
+5.12 Posix Variants
+===================
+
+The following macro makes it possible to use features of Posix that are
+extensions to C, as well as platform extensions not defined by Posix.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.60.  If possible, enable
+     extensions to C or Posix on hosts that normally disable the
+     extensions, typically due to standards-conformance namespace
+     issues.  This should be called before any macros that run the C
+     compiler.  The following preprocessor macros are defined where
+     appropriate:
+
+    `_GNU_SOURCE'
+          Enable extensions on GNU/Linux.
+
+    `__EXTENSIONS__'
+          Enable general extensions on Solaris.
+
+    `_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS'
+          Enable threading extensions on Solaris.
+
+    `_TANDEM_SOURCE'
+          Enable extensions for the HP NonStop platform.
+
+    `_ALL_SOURCE'
+          Enable extensions for AIX 3, and for Interix.
+
+    `_POSIX_SOURCE'
+          Enable Posix functions for Minix.
+
+    `_POSIX_1_SOURCE'
+          Enable additional Posix functions for Minix.
+
+    `_MINIX'
+          Identify Minix platform.  This particular preprocessor macro
+          is obsolescent, and may be removed in a future release of
+          Autoconf.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Erlang Libraries,  Prev: Posix Variants,  Up: Existing Tests
+
+5.13 Erlang Libraries
+=====================
+
+The following macros check for an installation of Erlang/OTP, and for
+the presence of certain Erlang libraries.  All those macros require the
+configuration of an Erlang interpreter and an Erlang compiler (*note
+Erlang Compiler and Interpreter::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER
+     Set the output variable `ERLANG_ERTS_VER' to the version of the
+     Erlang runtime system (as returned by Erlang's
+     `erlang:system_info(version)' function).  The result of this test
+     is cached if caching is enabled when running `configure'.  The
+     `ERLANG_ERTS_VER' variable is not intended to be used for testing
+     for features of specific ERTS versions, but to be used for
+     substituting the ERTS version in Erlang/OTP release resource files
+     (`.rel' files), as shown below.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ROOT_DIR
+     Set the output variable `ERLANG_ROOT_DIR' to the path to the base
+     directory in which Erlang/OTP is installed (as returned by Erlang's
+     `code:root_dir/0' function).  The result of this test is cached if
+     caching is enabled when running `configure'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR
+     Set the output variable `ERLANG_LIB_DIR' to the path of the library
+     directory of Erlang/OTP (as returned by Erlang's `code:lib_dir/0'
+     function), which subdirectories each contain an installed
+     Erlang/OTP library.  The result of this test is cached if caching
+     is enabled when running `configure'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB (LIBRARY, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     Test whether the Erlang/OTP library LIBRARY is installed by
+     calling Erlang's `code:lib_dir/1' function.  The result of this
+     test is cached if caching is enabled when running `configure'.
+     ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if the library
+     is installed; ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of shell commands to
+     run if it is not.  Additionally, if the library is installed, the
+     output variable `ERLANG_LIB_DIR_LIBRARY' is set to the path to the
+     library installation directory, and the output variable
+     `ERLANG_LIB_VER_LIBRARY' is set to the version number that is part
+     of the subdirectory name, if it is in the standard form
+     (`LIBRARY-VERSION').  If the directory name does not have a
+     version part, `ERLANG_LIB_VER_LIBRARY' is set to the empty string.
+     If the library is not installed, `ERLANG_LIB_DIR_LIBRARY' and
+     `ERLANG_LIB_VER_LIBRARY' are set to `"not found"'.  For example,
+     to check if library `stdlib' is installed:
+
+          AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB([stdlib],
+            [echo "stdlib version \"$ERLANG_LIB_VER_stdlib\""
+             echo "is installed in \"$ERLANG_LIB_DIR_stdlib\""],
+            [AC_MSG_ERROR([stdlib was not found!])])
+
+     The `ERLANG_LIB_VER_LIBRARY' variables (set by
+     `AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB') and the `ERLANG_ERTS_VER' variable (set by
+     `AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER') are not intended to be used for
+     testing for features of specific versions of libraries or of the
+     Erlang runtime system.  Those variables are intended to be
+     substituted in Erlang release resource files (`.rel' files).  For
+     instance, to generate a `example.rel' file for an application
+     depending on the `stdlib' library, `configure.ac' could contain:
+
+          AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER
+          AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB([stdlib],
+            [],
+            [AC_MSG_ERROR([stdlib was not found!])])
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([example.rel])
+
+     The `example.rel.in' file used to generate `example.rel' should
+     contain:
+
+          {release,
+              {"@PACKAGE@", "@VERSION@"},
+              {erts, "@ERLANG_ERTS_VER@"},
+              [{stdlib, "@ERLANG_LIB_VER_stdlib@"},
+               {@PACKAGE@, "@VERSION@"}]}.
+
+   In addition to the above macros, which test installed Erlang
+libraries, the following macros determine the paths to the directories
+into which newly built Erlang libraries are to be installed:
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR
+     Set the `ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR' output variable to the directory
+     into which every built Erlang library should be installed in a
+     separate subdirectory.  If this variable is not set in the
+     environment when `configure' runs, its default value is
+     `${libdir}/erlang/lib'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_SUBDIR (LIBRARY, VERSION)
+     Set the `ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR_LIBRARY' output variable to the
+     directory into which the built Erlang library LIBRARY version
+     VERSION should be installed.  If this variable is not set in the
+     environment when `configure' runs, its default value is
+     `$ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR/LIBRARY-VERSION', the value of the
+     `ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR' variable being set by the
+     `AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR' macro.

+6 Writing Tests
+***************
+
+If the existing feature tests don't do something you need, you have to
+write new ones.  These macros are the building blocks.  They provide
+ways for other macros to check whether various kinds of features are
+available and report the results.
+
+   This chapter contains some suggestions and some of the reasons why
+the existing tests are written the way they are.  You can also learn a
+lot about how to write Autoconf tests by looking at the existing ones.
+If something goes wrong in one or more of the Autoconf tests, this
+information can help you understand the assumptions behind them, which
+might help you figure out how to best solve the problem.
+
+   These macros check the output of the compiler system of the current
+language (*note Language Choice::).  They do not cache the results of
+their tests for future use (*note Caching Results::), because they don't
+know enough about the information they are checking for to generate a
+cache variable name.  They also do not print any messages, for the same
+reason.  The checks for particular kinds of features call these macros
+and do cache their results and print messages about what they're
+checking for.
+
+   When you write a feature test that could be applicable to more than
+one software package, the best thing to do is encapsulate it in a new
+macro.  *Note Writing Autoconf Macros::, for how to do that.

+
+6.1 Language Choice
+===================
+
+Autoconf-generated `configure' scripts check for the C compiler and its
+features by default.  Packages that use other programming languages
+(maybe more than one, e.g., C and C++) need to test features of the
+compilers for the respective languages.  The following macros determine
+which programming language is used in the subsequent tests in
+`configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG (LANGUAGE)
+     Do compilation tests using the compiler, preprocessor, and file
+     extensions for the specified LANGUAGE.
+
+     Supported languages are:
+
+    `C'
+          Do compilation tests using `CC' and `CPP' and use extension
+          `.c' for test programs.  Use compilation flags: `CPPFLAGS'
+          with `CPP', and both `CPPFLAGS' and `CFLAGS' with `CC'.
+
+    `C++'
+          Do compilation tests using `CXX' and `CXXCPP' and use
+          extension `.C' for test programs.  Use compilation flags:
+          `CPPFLAGS' with `CXXCPP', and both `CPPFLAGS' and `CXXFLAGS'
+          with `CXX'.
+
+    `Fortran 77'
+          Do compilation tests using `F77' and use extension `.f' for
+          test programs.  Use compilation flags: `FFLAGS'.
+
+    `Fortran'
+          Do compilation tests using `FC' and use extension `.f' (or
+          whatever has been set by `AC_FC_SRCEXT') for test programs.
+          Use compilation flags: `FCFLAGS'.
+
+    `Erlang'
+          Compile and execute tests using `ERLC' and `ERL' and use
+          extension `.erl' for test Erlang modules.  Use compilation
+          flags: `ERLCFLAGS'.
+
+    `Objective C'
+          Do compilation tests using `OBJC' and `OBJCPP' and use
+          extension `.m' for test programs.  Use compilation flags:
+          `CPPFLAGS' with `OBJCPP', and both `CPPFLAGS' and `OBJCFLAGS'
+          with `OBJC'.
+
+    `Objective C++'
+          Do compilation tests using `OBJCXX' and `OBJCXXCPP' and use
+          extension `.mm' for test programs.  Use compilation flags:
+          `CPPFLAGS' with `OBJCXXCPP', and both `CPPFLAGS' and
+          `OBJCXXFLAGS' with `OBJCXX'.
+
+    `Go'
+          Do compilation tests using `GOC' and use extension `.go' for
+          test programs.  Use compilation flags `GOFLAGS'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_PUSH (LANGUAGE)
+     Remember the current language (as set by `AC_LANG') on a stack, and
+     then select the LANGUAGE.  Use this macro and `AC_LANG_POP' in
+     macros that need to temporarily switch to a particular language.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_POP ([LANGUAGE])
+     Select the language that is saved on the top of the stack, as set
+     by `AC_LANG_PUSH', and remove it from the stack.
+
+     If given, LANGUAGE specifies the language we just _quit_.  It is a
+     good idea to specify it when it's known (which should be the
+     case...), since Autoconf detects inconsistencies.
+
+          AC_LANG_PUSH([Fortran 77])
+          # Perform some tests on Fortran 77.
+          # ...
+          AC_LANG_POP([Fortran 77])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_ASSERT (LANGUAGE)
+     Check statically that the current language is LANGUAGE.  You
+     should use this in your language specific macros to avoid that
+     they be called with an inappropriate language.
+
+     This macro runs only at `autoconf' time, and incurs no cost at
+     `configure' time.  Sadly enough and because Autoconf is a two
+     layer language (1), the macros `AC_LANG_PUSH' and `AC_LANG_POP'
+     cannot be "optimizing", therefore as much as possible you ought to
+     avoid using them to wrap your code, rather, require from the user
+     to run the macro with a correct current language, and check it
+     with `AC_LANG_ASSERT'.  And anyway, that may help the user
+     understand she is running a Fortran macro while expecting a result
+     about her Fortran 77 compiler...
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REQUIRE_CPP
+     Ensure that whichever preprocessor would currently be used for
+     tests has been found.  Calls `AC_REQUIRE' (*note Prerequisite
+     Macros::) with an argument of either `AC_PROG_CPP' or
+     `AC_PROG_CXXCPP', depending on which language is current.
+

+
+   (1) Because M4 is not aware of Sh code, especially conditionals,
+some optimizations that look nice statically may produce incorrect
+results at runtime.

+
+6.2 Writing Test Programs
+=========================
+
+Autoconf tests follow a common scheme: feed some program with some
+input, and most of the time, feed a compiler with some source file.
+This section is dedicated to these source samples.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Guidelines::                  General rules for writing test programs
+* Test Functions::              Avoiding pitfalls in test programs
+* Generating Sources::          Source program boilerplate
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Guidelines,  Next: Test Functions,  Up: Writing Test Programs
+
+6.2.1 Guidelines for Test Programs
+----------------------------------
+
+The most important rule to follow when writing testing samples is:
+
+                          _Look for realism._
+
+   This motto means that testing samples must be written with the same
+strictness as real programs are written.  In particular, you should
+avoid "shortcuts" and simplifications.
+
+   Don't just play with the preprocessor if you want to prepare a
+compilation.  For instance, using `cpp' to check whether a header is
+functional might let your `configure' accept a header which causes some
+_compiler_ error.  Do not hesitate to check a header with other headers
+included before, especially required headers.
+
+   Make sure the symbols you use are properly defined, i.e., refrain
+from simply declaring a function yourself instead of including the
+proper header.
+
+   Test programs should not write to standard output.  They should exit
+with status 0 if the test succeeds, and with status 1 otherwise, so
+that success can be distinguished easily from a core dump or other
+failure; segmentation violations and other failures produce a nonzero
+exit status.  Unless you arrange for `exit' to be declared, test
+programs should `return', not `exit', from `main', because on many
+systems `exit' is not declared by default.
+
+   Test programs can use `#if' or `#ifdef' to check the values of
+preprocessor macros defined by tests that have already run.  For
+example, if you call `AC_HEADER_STDBOOL', then later on in
+`configure.ac' you can have a test program that includes `stdbool.h'
+conditionally:
+
+     #ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H
+     # include <stdbool.h>
+     #endif
+
+   Both `#if HAVE_STDBOOL_H' and `#ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H' will work with
+any standard C compiler.  Some developers prefer `#if' because it is
+easier to read, while others prefer `#ifdef' because it avoids
+diagnostics with picky compilers like GCC with the `-Wundef' option.
+
+   If a test program needs to use or create a data file, give it a name
+that starts with `conftest', such as `conftest.data'.  The `configure'
+script cleans up by running `rm -f -r conftest*' after running test
+programs and if the script is interrupted.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Test Functions,  Next: Generating Sources,  Prev: Guidelines,  Up: Writing Test Programs
+
+6.2.2 Test Functions
+--------------------
+
+These days it's safe to assume support for function prototypes
+(introduced in C89).
+
+   Functions that test programs declare should also be conditionalized
+for C++, which requires `extern "C"' prototypes.  Make sure to not
+include any header files containing clashing prototypes.
+
+     #ifdef __cplusplus
+     extern "C"
+     #endif
+     void *valloc (size_t);
+
+   If a test program calls a function with invalid parameters (just to
+see whether it exists), organize the program to ensure that it never
+invokes that function.  You can do this by calling it in another
+function that is never invoked.  You can't do it by putting it after a
+call to `exit', because GCC version 2 knows that `exit' never returns
+and optimizes out any code that follows it in the same block.
+
+   If you include any header files, be sure to call the functions
+relevant to them with the correct number of arguments, even if they are
+just 0, to avoid compilation errors due to prototypes.  GCC version 2
+has internal prototypes for several functions that it automatically
+inlines; for example, `memcpy'.  To avoid errors when checking for
+them, either pass them the correct number of arguments or redeclare them
+with a different return type (such as `char').
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Generating Sources,  Prev: Test Functions,  Up: Writing Test Programs
+
+6.2.3 Generating Sources
+------------------------
+
+Autoconf provides a set of macros that can be used to generate test
+source files.  They are written to be language generic, i.e., they
+actually depend on the current language (*note Language Choice::) to
+"format" the output properly.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_CONFTEST (SOURCE)
+     Save the SOURCE text in the current test source file:
+     `conftest.EXTENSION' where the EXTENSION depends on the current
+     language.  As of Autoconf 2.63b, the source file also contains the
+     results of all of the `AC_DEFINE' performed so far.
+
+     Note that the SOURCE is evaluated exactly once, like regular
+     Autoconf macro arguments, and therefore (i) you may pass a macro
+     invocation, (ii) if not, be sure to double quote if needed.
+
+     This macro issues a warning during `autoconf' processing if SOURCE
+     does not include an expansion of the macro
+     `AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED' (note that both `AC_LANG_SOURCE' and
+     `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' call this macro, and thus avoid the warning).
+
+     This macro is seldom called directly, but is used under the hood
+     by more common macros such as `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' and
+     `AC_RUN_IFELSE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED
+     This macro is called as a witness that the file
+     `conftest.EXTENSION' appropriate for the current language is
+     complete, including all previously determined results from
+     `AC_DEFINE'.  This macro is seldom called directly, but exists if
+     you have a compelling reason to write a conftest file without using
+     `AC_LANG_SOURCE', yet still want to avoid a syntax warning from
+     `AC_LANG_CONFTEST'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_SOURCE (SOURCE)
+     Expands into the SOURCE, with the definition of all the
+     `AC_DEFINE' performed so far.  This macro includes an expansion of
+     `AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED'.
+
+     In many cases, you may find it more convenient to use the wrapper
+     `AC_LANG_PROGRAM'.
+
+   For instance, executing (observe the double quotation!):
+
+     AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@example.org], [],
+             [http://www.example.org/])
+     AC_DEFINE([HELLO_WORLD], ["Hello, World\n"],
+       [Greetings string.])
+     AC_LANG([C])
+     AC_LANG_CONFTEST(
+        [AC_LANG_SOURCE([[const char hw[] = "Hello, World\n";]])])
+     gcc -E -dD conftest.c
+
+on a system with `gcc' installed, results in:
+
+     ...
+     # 1 "conftest.c"
+
+     #define PACKAGE_NAME "Hello"
+     #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "hello"
+     #define PACKAGE_VERSION "1.0"
+     #define PACKAGE_STRING "Hello 1.0"
+     #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "bug-hello@example.org"
+     #define PACKAGE_URL "http://www.example.org/"
+     #define HELLO_WORLD "Hello, World\n"
+
+     const char hw[] = "Hello, World\n";
+
+   When the test language is Fortran, Erlang, or Go, the `AC_DEFINE'
+definitions are not automatically translated into constants in the
+source code by this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_PROGRAM (PROLOGUE, BODY)
+     Expands into a source file which consists of the PROLOGUE, and
+     then BODY as body of the main function (e.g., `main' in C).  Since
+     it uses `AC_LANG_SOURCE', the features of the latter are available.
+
+   For instance:
+
+     AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@example.org], [],
+             [http://www.example.org/])
+     AC_DEFINE([HELLO_WORLD], ["Hello, World\n"],
+       [Greetings string.])
+     AC_LANG_CONFTEST(
+     [AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[const char hw[] = "Hello, World\n";]],
+                      [[fputs (hw, stdout);]])])
+     gcc -E -dD conftest.c
+
+on a system with `gcc' installed, results in:
+
+     ...
+     # 1 "conftest.c"
+
+     #define PACKAGE_NAME "Hello"
+     #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "hello"
+     #define PACKAGE_VERSION "1.0"
+     #define PACKAGE_STRING "Hello 1.0"
+     #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "bug-hello@example.org"
+     #define PACKAGE_URL "http://www.example.org/"
+     #define HELLO_WORLD "Hello, World\n"
+
+     const char hw[] = "Hello, World\n";
+     int
+     main ()
+     {
+     fputs (hw, stdout);
+       ;
+       return 0;
+     }
+
+   In Erlang tests, the created source file is that of an Erlang module
+called `conftest' (`conftest.erl').  This module defines and exports at
+least one `start/0' function, which is called to perform the test.  The
+PROLOGUE is optional code that is inserted between the module header and
+the `start/0' function definition.  BODY is the body of the `start/0'
+function without the final period (*note Runtime::, about constraints
+on this function's behavior).
+
+   For instance:
+
+     AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@example.org])
+     AC_LANG(Erlang)
+     AC_LANG_CONFTEST(
+     [AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[-define(HELLO_WORLD, "Hello, world!").]],
+                      [[io:format("~s~n", [?HELLO_WORLD])]])])
+     cat conftest.erl
+
+results in:
+
+     -module(conftest).
+     -export([start/0]).
+     -define(HELLO_WORLD, "Hello, world!").
+     start() ->
+     io:format("~s~n", [?HELLO_WORLD])
+     .
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_CALL (PROLOGUE, FUNCTION)
+     Expands into a source file which consists of the PROLOGUE, and
+     then a call to the FUNCTION as body of the main function (e.g.,
+     `main' in C).  Since it uses `AC_LANG_PROGRAM', the feature of the
+     latter are available.
+
+     This function will probably be replaced in the future by a version
+     which would enable specifying the arguments.  The use of this
+     macro is not encouraged, as it violates strongly the typing system.
+
+     This macro cannot be used for Erlang tests.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY (FUNCTION)
+     Expands into a source file which uses the FUNCTION in the body of
+     the main function (e.g., `main' in C).  Since it uses
+     `AC_LANG_PROGRAM', the features of the latter are available.
+
+     As `AC_LANG_CALL', this macro is documented only for completeness.
+     It is considered to be severely broken, and in the future will be
+     removed in favor of actual function calls (with properly typed
+     arguments).
+
+     This macro cannot be used for Erlang tests.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Running the Preprocessor,  Next: Running the Compiler,  Prev: Writing Test Programs,  Up: Writing Tests
+
+6.3 Running the Preprocessor
+============================
+
+Sometimes one might need to run the preprocessor on some source file.
+_Usually it is a bad idea_, as you typically need to _compile_ your
+project, not merely run the preprocessor on it; therefore you certainly
+want to run the compiler, not the preprocessor.  Resist the temptation
+of following the easiest path.
+
+   Nevertheless, if you need to run the preprocessor, then use
+`AC_PREPROC_IFELSE'.
+
+   The macros described in this section cannot be used for tests in
+Erlang, Fortran, or Go, since those languages require no preprocessor.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PREPROC_IFELSE (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-TRUE],
+          [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+     Run the preprocessor of the current language (*note Language
+     Choice::) on the INPUT, run the shell commands ACTION-IF-TRUE on
+     success, ACTION-IF-FALSE otherwise.  The INPUT can be made by
+     `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' and friends.
+
+     This macro uses `CPPFLAGS', but not `CFLAGS', because `-g', `-O',
+     etc. are not valid options to many C preprocessors.
+
+     It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+     `AC_MSG_FAILURE'.  If needed, ACTION-IF-TRUE can further access
+     the preprocessed output in the file `conftest.i'.
+
+   For instance:
+
+     AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@example.org])
+     AC_DEFINE([HELLO_WORLD], ["Hello, World\n"],
+       [Greetings string.])
+     AC_PREPROC_IFELSE(
+        [AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[const char hw[] = "Hello, World\n";]],
+                         [[fputs (hw, stdout);]])],
+        [AC_MSG_RESULT([OK])],
+        [AC_MSG_FAILURE([unexpected preprocessor failure])])
+
+results in:
+
+     checking for gcc... gcc
+     checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
+     checking whether the C compiler works... yes
+     checking whether we are cross compiling... no
+     checking for suffix of executables...
+     checking for suffix of object files... o
+     checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
+     checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
+     checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed
+     checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
+     OK
+
+
+   The macro `AC_TRY_CPP' (*note Obsolete Macros::) used to play the
+role of `AC_PREPROC_IFELSE', but double quotes its argument, making it
+impossible to use it to elaborate sources.  You are encouraged to get
+rid of your old use of the macro `AC_TRY_CPP' in favor of
+`AC_PREPROC_IFELSE', but, in the first place, are you sure you need to
+run the _preprocessor_ and not the compiler?
+
+ -- Macro: AC_EGREP_HEADER (PATTERN, HEADER-FILE, ACTION-IF-FOUND,
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     If the output of running the preprocessor on the system header file
+     HEADER-FILE matches the extended regular expression PATTERN,
+     execute shell commands ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise execute
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_EGREP_CPP (PATTERN, PROGRAM, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+     PROGRAM is the text of a C or C++ program, on which shell
+     variable, back quote, and backslash substitutions are performed.

+     extended regular expression PATTERN, execute shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise execute ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.

+
+6.4 Running the Compiler
+========================
+
+To check for a syntax feature of the current language's (*note Language
+Choice::) compiler, such as whether it recognizes a certain keyword, or
+simply to try some library feature, use `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' to try to
+compile a small program that uses that feature.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_COMPILE_IFELSE (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-TRUE],
+          [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+     Run the compiler and compilation flags of the current language
+     (*note Language Choice::) on the INPUT, run the shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-TRUE on success, ACTION-IF-FALSE otherwise.  The INPUT
+     can be made by `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' and friends.
+
+     It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+     `AC_MSG_FAILURE'.  This macro does not try to link; use
+     `AC_LINK_IFELSE' if you need to do that (*note Running the
+     Linker::).  If needed, ACTION-IF-TRUE can further access the
+     just-compiled object file `conftest.$OBJEXT'.
+
+     This macro uses `AC_REQUIRE' for the compiler associated with the
+     current language, which means that if the compiler has not yet been
+     determined, the compiler determination will be made prior to the
+     body of the outermost `AC_DEFUN' macro that triggered this macro to
+     expand (*note Expanded Before Required::).
+
+   For tests in Erlang, the INPUT must be the source code of a module
+named `conftest'.  `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' generates a `conftest.beam' file
+that can be interpreted by the Erlang virtual machine (`ERL').  It is
+recommended to use `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' to specify the test program, to
+ensure that the Erlang module has the right name.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Running the Linker,  Next: Runtime,  Prev: Running the Compiler,  Up: Writing Tests
+
+6.5 Running the Linker
+======================
+
+To check for a library, a function, or a global variable, Autoconf
+`configure' scripts try to compile and link a small program that uses
+it.  This is unlike Metaconfig, which by default uses `nm' or `ar' on
+the C library to try to figure out which functions are available.
+Trying to link with the function is usually a more reliable approach
+because it avoids dealing with the variations in the options and output
+formats of `nm' and `ar' and in the location of the standard libraries.
+It also allows configuring for cross-compilation or checking a
+function's runtime behavior if needed.  On the other hand, it can be
+slower than scanning the libraries once, but accuracy is more important
+than speed.
+
+   `AC_LINK_IFELSE' is used to compile test programs to test for
+functions and global variables.  It is also used by `AC_CHECK_LIB' to
+check for libraries (*note Libraries::), by adding the library being
+checked for to `LIBS' temporarily and trying to link a small program.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LINK_IFELSE (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+     Run the compiler (and compilation flags) and the linker of the
+     current language (*note Language Choice::) on the INPUT, run the
+     shell commands ACTION-IF-TRUE on success, ACTION-IF-FALSE
+     otherwise.  The INPUT can be made by `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' and
+     friends.  If needed, ACTION-IF-TRUE can further access the
+     just-linked program file `conftest$EXEEXT'.
+
+     `LDFLAGS' and `LIBS' are used for linking, in addition to the
+     current compilation flags.
+
+     It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+     `AC_MSG_FAILURE'.  This macro does not try to execute the program;
+     use `AC_RUN_IFELSE' if you need to do that (*note Runtime::).
+
+   The `AC_LINK_IFELSE' macro cannot be used for Erlang tests, since
+Erlang programs are interpreted and do not require linking.
+
+

+
+6.6 Checking Runtime Behavior
+=============================
+
+Sometimes you need to find out how a system performs at runtime, such
+as whether a given function has a certain capability or bug.  If you
+can, make such checks when your program runs instead of when it is
+configured.  You can check for things like the machine's endianness when
+your program initializes itself.
+
+   If you really need to test for a runtime behavior while configuring,
+you can write a test program to determine the result, and compile and
+run it using `AC_RUN_IFELSE'.  Avoid running test programs if possible,
+because this prevents people from configuring your package for
+cross-compiling.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_RUN_IFELSE (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE],
+          [ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING = `AC_MSG_FAILURE'])
+     Run the compiler (and compilation flags) and the linker of the
+     current language (*note Language Choice::) on the INPUT, then
+     execute the resulting program.  If the program returns an exit
+     status of 0 when executed, run shell commands ACTION-IF-TRUE.
+     Otherwise, run shell commands ACTION-IF-FALSE.
+
+     The INPUT can be made by `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' and friends.  `LDFLAGS'
+     and `LIBS' are used for linking, in addition to the compilation
+     flags of the current language (*note Language Choice::).
+     Additionally, ACTION-IF-TRUE can run `./conftest$EXEEXT' for
+     further testing.
+
+     In the ACTION-IF-FALSE section, the failing exit status is
+     available in the shell variable `$?'.  This exit status might be
+     that of a failed compilation, or it might be that of a failed
+     program execution.
+
+     If cross-compilation mode is enabled (this is the case if either
+     the compiler being used does not produce executables that run on
+     the system where `configure' is being run, or if the options
+     `--build' and `--host' were both specified and their values are
+     different), then the test program is not run.  If the optional
+     shell commands ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING are given, those commands
+     are run instead; typically these commands provide pessimistic
+     defaults that allow cross-compilation to work even if the guess
+     was wrong.  If the fourth argument is empty or omitted, but
+     cross-compilation is detected, then `configure' prints an error
+     message and exits.  If you want your package to be useful in a
+     cross-compilation scenario, you _should_ provide a non-empty
+     ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING clause, as well as wrap the
+     `AC_RUN_IFELSE' compilation inside an `AC_CACHE_CHECK' (*note
+     Caching Results::) which allows the user to override the
+     pessimistic default if needed.
+
+     It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+     `AC_MSG_FAILURE'.
+
+   `autoconf' prints a warning message when creating `configure' each
+time it encounters a call to `AC_RUN_IFELSE' with no
+ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING argument given.  If you are not concerned
+about users configuring your package for cross-compilation, you may
+ignore the warning.  A few of the macros distributed with Autoconf
+produce this warning message; but if this is a problem for you, please
+report it as a bug, along with an appropriate pessimistic guess to use
+instead.
+
+   To configure for cross-compiling you can also choose a value for
+those parameters based on the canonical system name (*note Manual
+Configuration::).  Alternatively, set up a test results cache file with
+the correct values for the host system (*note Caching Results::).
+
+   To provide a default for calls of `AC_RUN_IFELSE' that are embedded
+in other macros, including a few of the ones that come with Autoconf,
+you can test whether the shell variable `cross_compiling' is set to
+`yes', and then use an alternate method to get the results instead of
+calling the macros.
+
+   It is also permissible to temporarily assign to `cross_compiling' in
+order to force tests to behave as though they are in a
+cross-compilation environment, particularly since this provides a way to
+test your ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING even when you are not using a
+cross-compiler.
+
+     # We temporarily set cross-compile mode to force AC_COMPUTE_INT
+     # to use the slow link-only method
+     save_cross_compiling=$cross_compiling
+     cross_compiling=yes
+     AC_COMPUTE_INT([...])
+     cross_compiling=$save_cross_compiling
+
+   A C or C++ runtime test should be portable.  *Note Portable C and
+C++::.
+
+   Erlang tests must exit themselves the Erlang VM by calling the
+`halt/1' function: the given status code is used to determine the
+success of the test (status is `0') or its failure (status is different
+than `0'), as explained above.  It must be noted that data output
+through the standard output (e.g., using `io:format/2') may be
+truncated when halting the VM.  Therefore, if a test must output
+configuration information, it is recommended to create and to output
+data into the temporary file named `conftest.out', using the functions
+of module `file'.  The `conftest.out' file is automatically deleted by
+the `AC_RUN_IFELSE' macro.  For instance, a simplified implementation
+of Autoconf's `AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR' macro is:
+
+     AC_INIT([LibdirTest], [1.0], [bug-libdirtest@example.org])
+     AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERL
+     AC_LANG(Erlang)
+     AC_RUN_IFELSE(
+       [AC_LANG_PROGRAM([], [dnl
+         file:write_file("conftest.out", code:lib_dir()),
+         halt(0)])],
+       [echo "code:lib_dir() returned: `cat conftest.out`"],
+       [AC_MSG_FAILURE([test Erlang program execution failed])])

+6.7 Systemology
+===============
+
+This section aims at presenting some systems and pointers to
+documentation.  It may help you addressing particular problems reported
+by users.
+
+   Posix-conforming systems (http://www.opengroup.org/susv3) are
+derived from the Unix operating system
+(http://www.bell-labs.com/history/unix/).
+
+   The Rosetta Stone for Unix (http://bhami.com/rosetta.html) contains
+a table correlating the features of various Posix-conforming systems.
+Unix History (http://www.levenez.com/unix/) is a simplified diagram of
+how many Unix systems were derived from each other.
+
+   The Heirloom Project (http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/) provides
+some variants of traditional implementations of Unix utilities.
+
+Darwin
+     Darwin is also known as Mac OS X.  Beware that the file system
+     _can_ be case-preserving, but case insensitive.  This can cause
+     nasty problems, since for instance the installation attempt for a
+     package having an `INSTALL' file can result in `make install'
+     report that nothing was to be done!
+
+     That's all dependent on whether the file system is a UFS (case
+     sensitive) or HFS+ (case preserving).  By default Apple wants you
+     to install the OS on HFS+.  Unfortunately, there are some pieces of
+     software which really need to be built on UFS.  We may want to
+     rebuild Darwin to have both UFS and HFS+ available (and put the
+     /local/build tree on the UFS).
+
+QNX 4.25
+     QNX is a realtime operating system running on Intel architecture
+     meant to be scalable from the small embedded systems to the hundred
+     processor super-computer.  It claims to be Posix certified.  More
+     information is available on the QNX home page
+     (http://www.qnx.com/).
+
+Tru64
+     Documentation of several versions of Tru64
+     (http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/) is available in different
+     formats.
+
+Unix version 7
+     Officially this was called the "Seventh Edition" of "the UNIX
+     time-sharing system" but we use the more-common name "Unix version
+     7".  Documentation is available in the Unix Seventh Edition Manual
+     (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/7thEdMan/).  Previous versions of Unix
+     are called "Unix version 6", etc., but they were not as widely
+     used.

+
+6.8 Multiple Cases
+==================
+
+Some operations are accomplished in several possible ways, depending on
+the OS variant.  Checking for them essentially requires a "case
+statement".  Autoconf does not directly provide one; however, it is
+easy to simulate by using a shell variable to keep track of whether a
+way to perform the operation has been found yet.
+
+   Here is an example that uses the shell variable `fstype' to keep
+track of whether the remaining cases need to be checked.  Note that
+since the value of `fstype' is under our control, we don't have to use
+the longer `test "x$fstype" = xno'.

+7 Results of Tests
+******************
+
+Once `configure' has determined whether a feature exists, what can it
+do to record that information?  There are four sorts of things it can
+do: define a C preprocessor symbol, set a variable in the output files,
+save the result in a cache file for future `configure' runs, and print
+a message letting the user know the result of the test.

+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Defining Symbols,  Next: Setting Output Variables,  Up: Results
+
+7.1 Defining C Preprocessor Symbols
+===================================
+
+A common action to take in response to a feature test is to define a C
+preprocessor symbol indicating the results of the test.  That is done by
+calling `AC_DEFINE' or `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED'.
+
+   By default, `AC_OUTPUT' places the symbols defined by these macros
+into the output variable `DEFS', which contains an option
+`-DSYMBOL=VALUE' for each symbol defined.  Unlike in Autoconf version
+1, there is no variable `DEFS' defined while `configure' is running.
+To check whether Autoconf macros have already defined a certain C
+preprocessor symbol, test the value of the appropriate cache variable,
+as in this example:
+
+     AC_CHECK_FUNC([vprintf], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_VPRINTF], [1],
+                               [Define if vprintf exists.])])
+     if test "x$ac_cv_func_vprintf" != xyes; then
+       AC_CHECK_FUNC([_doprnt], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_DOPRNT], [1],
+                                 [Define if _doprnt exists.])])
+     fi
+
+   If `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' has been called, then instead of creating
+`DEFS', `AC_OUTPUT' creates a header file by substituting the correct
+values into `#define' statements in a template file.  *Note
+Configuration Headers::, for more information about this kind of output.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFINE (VARIABLE, VALUE, [DESCRIPTION])
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFINE (VARIABLE)
+     Define VARIABLE to VALUE (verbatim), by defining a C preprocessor
+     macro for VARIABLE.  VARIABLE should be a C identifier, optionally
+     suffixed by a parenthesized argument list to define a C
+     preprocessor macro with arguments.  The macro argument list, if
+     present, should be a comma-separated list of C identifiers,
+     possibly terminated by an ellipsis `...' if C99 syntax is employed.
+     VARIABLE should not contain comments, white space, trigraphs,
+     backslash-newlines, universal character names, or non-ASCII
+     characters.
+
+     VALUE may contain backslash-escaped newlines, which will be
+     preserved if you use `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' but flattened if passed
+     via `@DEFS@' (with no effect on the compilation, since the
+     preprocessor sees only one line in the first place).  VALUE should
+     not contain raw newlines.  If you are not using
+     `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS', VALUE should not contain any `#' characters,
+     as `make' tends to eat them.  To use a shell variable, use
+     `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' instead.
+
+     DESCRIPTION is only useful if you are using `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'.
+     In this case, DESCRIPTION is put into the generated `config.h.in'
+     as the comment before the macro define.  The following example
+     defines the C preprocessor variable `EQUATION' to be the string
+     constant `"$a > $b"':
+
+          AC_DEFINE([EQUATION], ["$a > $b"],
+            [Equation string.])
+
+     If neither VALUE nor DESCRIPTION are given, then VALUE defaults to
+     1 instead of to the empty string.  This is for backwards
+     compatibility with older versions of Autoconf, but this usage is
+     obsolescent and may be withdrawn in future versions of Autoconf.
+
+     If the VARIABLE is a literal string, it is passed to
+     `m4_pattern_allow' (*note Forbidden Patterns::).
+
+     If multiple `AC_DEFINE' statements are executed for the same
+     VARIABLE name (not counting any parenthesized argument list), the
+     last one wins.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED (VARIABLE, VALUE, [DESCRIPTION])
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED (VARIABLE)
+     Like `AC_DEFINE', but three shell expansions are
+     performed--once--on VARIABLE and VALUE: variable expansion (`$'),
+     command substitution (``'), and backslash escaping (`\'), as if in
+     an unquoted here-document.  Single and double quote characters in
+     the value have no special meaning.  Use this macro instead of
+     `AC_DEFINE' when VARIABLE or VALUE is a shell variable.  Examples:
+
+          AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([config_machfile], ["$machfile"],
+            [Configuration machine file.])
+          AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([GETGROUPS_T], [$ac_cv_type_getgroups],
+            [getgroups return type.])
+          AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([$ac_tr_hdr], [1],
+            [Translated header name.])
+
+   Due to a syntactical bizarreness of the Bourne shell, do not use
+semicolons to separate `AC_DEFINE' or `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' calls from
+other macro calls or shell code; that can cause syntax errors in the
+resulting `configure' script.  Use either blanks or newlines.  That is,
+do this:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER([elf.h],
+       [AC_DEFINE([SVR4], [1], [System V Release 4]) LIBS="-lelf $LIBS"])
+
+or this:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER([elf.h],
+       [AC_DEFINE([SVR4], [1], [System V Release 4])
+        LIBS="-lelf $LIBS"])
+
+instead of this:
+
+     AC_CHECK_HEADER([elf.h],
+       [AC_DEFINE([SVR4], [1], [System V Release 4]); LIBS="-lelf $LIBS"])

+
+7.2 Setting Output Variables
+============================
+
+Another way to record the results of tests is to set "output
+variables", which are shell variables whose values are substituted into
+files that `configure' outputs.  The two macros below create new output
+variables.  *Note Preset Output Variables::, for a list of output
+variables that are always available.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SUBST (VARIABLE, [VALUE])
+     Create an output variable from a shell variable.  Make `AC_OUTPUT'
+     substitute the variable VARIABLE into output files (typically one
+     or more makefiles).  This means that `AC_OUTPUT' replaces
+     instances of `@VARIABLE@' in input files with the value that the
+     shell variable VARIABLE has when `AC_OUTPUT' is called.  The value
+     can contain any non-`NUL' character, including newline.  If you
+     are using Automake 1.11 or newer, for newlines in values you might
+     want to consider using `AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE' to prevent `automake'
+     from adding a line `VARIABLE = @VARIABLE@' to the `Makefile.in'
+     files (*note Automake: (automake)Optional.).
+
+     Variable occurrences should not overlap: e.g., an input file should
+     not contain `@VAR1@VAR2@' if VAR1 and VAR2 are variable names.
+     The substituted value is not rescanned for more output variables;
+     occurrences of `@VARIABLE@' in the value are inserted literally
+     into the output file.  (The algorithm uses the special marker
+     `|#_!!_#|' internally, so neither the substituted value nor the
+     output file may contain `|#_!!_#|'.)
+
+     If VALUE is given, in addition assign it to VARIABLE.
+
+     The string VARIABLE is passed to `m4_pattern_allow' (*note
+     Forbidden Patterns::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SUBST_FILE (VARIABLE)
+     Another way to create an output variable from a shell variable.
+     Make `AC_OUTPUT' insert (without substitutions) the contents of
+     the file named by shell variable VARIABLE into output files.  This
+     means that `AC_OUTPUT' replaces instances of `@VARIABLE@' in
+     output files (such as `Makefile.in') with the contents of the file
+     that the shell variable VARIABLE names when `AC_OUTPUT' is called.
+     Set the variable to `/dev/null' for cases that do not have a file
+     to insert.  This substitution occurs only when the `@VARIABLE@' is
+     on a line by itself, optionally surrounded by spaces and tabs.  The
+     substitution replaces the whole line, including the spaces, tabs,
+     and the terminating newline.
+
+     This macro is useful for inserting makefile fragments containing
+     special dependencies or other `make' directives for particular host
+     or target types into makefiles.  For example, `configure.ac' could
+     contain:
+
+          AC_SUBST_FILE([host_frag])
+          host_frag=$srcdir/conf/sun4.mh
+
+     and then a `Makefile.in' could contain:
+
+          @host_frag@
+
+     The string VARIABLE is passed to `m4_pattern_allow' (*note
+     Forbidden Patterns::).
+
+   Running `configure' in varying environments can be extremely
+dangerous.  If for instance the user runs `CC=bizarre-cc ./configure',
+then the cache, `config.h', and many other output files depend upon
+`bizarre-cc' being the C compiler.  If for some reason the user runs
+`./configure' again, or if it is run via `./config.status --recheck',
+(*Note Automatic Remaking::, and *note config.status Invocation::),
+then the configuration can be inconsistent, composed of results
+depending upon two different compilers.
+
+   Environment variables that affect this situation, such as `CC'
+above, are called "precious variables", and can be declared as such by
+`AC_ARG_VAR'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ARG_VAR (VARIABLE, DESCRIPTION)
+     Declare VARIABLE is a precious variable, and include its
+     DESCRIPTION in the variable section of `./configure --help'.
+
+     Being precious means that
+        - VARIABLE is substituted via `AC_SUBST'.
+
+        - The value of VARIABLE when `configure' was launched is saved
+          in the cache, including if it was not specified on the command
+          line but via the environment.  Indeed, while `configure' can
+          notice the definition of `CC' in `./configure CC=bizarre-cc',
+          it is impossible to notice it in `CC=bizarre-cc ./configure',
+          which, unfortunately, is what most users do.
+
+          We emphasize that it is the _initial_ value of VARIABLE which
+          is saved, not that found during the execution of `configure'.
+          Indeed, specifying `./configure FOO=foo' and letting
+          `./configure' guess that `FOO' is `foo' can be two different
+          things.
+
+        - VARIABLE is checked for consistency between two `configure'
+          runs.  For instance:
+
+               $ ./configure --silent --config-cache
+               $ CC=cc ./configure --silent --config-cache
+               configure: error: `CC' was not set in the previous run
+               configure: error: changes in the environment can compromise \
+               the build
+               configure: error: run `make distclean' and/or \
+               `rm config.cache' and start over
+
+          and similarly if the variable is unset, or if its content is
+          changed.  If the content has white space changes only, then
+          the error is degraded to a warning only, but the old value is
+          reused.
+
+        - VARIABLE is kept during automatic reconfiguration (*note
+          config.status Invocation::) as if it had been passed as a
+          command line argument, including when no cache is used:
+
+               $ CC=/usr/bin/cc ./configure var=raboof --silent
+               $ ./config.status --recheck
+               running CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh /bin/sh ./configure var=raboof \
+                 CC=/usr/bin/cc  --no-create --no-recursion

+
+7.3 Special Characters in Output Variables
+==========================================
+
+Many output variables are intended to be evaluated both by `make' and
+by the shell.  Some characters are expanded differently in these two
+contexts, so to avoid confusion these variables' values should not
+contain any of the following characters:
+
+     " # $ & ' ( ) * ; < > ? [ \ ^ ` |
+
+   Also, these variables' values should neither contain newlines, nor
+start with `~', nor contain white space or `:' immediately followed by
+`~'.  The values can contain nonempty sequences of white space
+characters like tabs and spaces, but each such sequence might
+arbitrarily be replaced by a single space during substitution.
+
+   These restrictions apply both to the values that `configure'
+computes, and to the values set directly by the user.  For example, the
+following invocations of `configure' are problematic, since they
+attempt to use special characters within `CPPFLAGS' and white space
+within `$(srcdir)':
+
+     CPPFLAGS='-DOUCH="&\"#$*?"' '../My Source/ouch-1.0/configure'
+
+     '../My Source/ouch-1.0/configure' CPPFLAGS='-DOUCH="&\"#$*?"'
+
+

+
+7.4 Caching Results
+===================
+
+To avoid checking for the same features repeatedly in various
+`configure' scripts (or in repeated runs of one script), `configure'
+can optionally save the results of many checks in a "cache file" (*note
+Cache Files::).  If a `configure' script runs with caching enabled and
+finds a cache file, it reads the results of previous runs from the
+cache and avoids rerunning those checks.  As a result, `configure' can
+then run much faster than if it had to perform all of the checks every
+time.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CACHE_VAL (CACHE-ID, COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT)
+     Ensure that the results of the check identified by CACHE-ID are
+     available.  If the results of the check were in the cache file
+     that was read, and `configure' was not given the `--quiet' or
+     `--silent' option, print a message saying that the result was
+     cached; otherwise, run the shell commands COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT.  If
+     the shell commands are run to determine the value, the value is
+     saved in the cache file just before `configure' creates its output
+     files.  *Note Cache Variable Names::, for how to choose the name
+     of the CACHE-ID variable.
+
+     The COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT _must have no side effects_ except for
+     setting the variable CACHE-ID, see below.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CACHE_CHECK (MESSAGE, CACHE-ID, COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT)
+     A wrapper for `AC_CACHE_VAL' that takes care of printing the
+     messages.  This macro provides a convenient shorthand for the most
+     common way to use these macros.  It calls `AC_MSG_CHECKING' for
+     MESSAGE, then `AC_CACHE_VAL' with the CACHE-ID and COMMANDS
+     arguments, and `AC_MSG_RESULT' with CACHE-ID.
+
+     The COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT _must have no side effects_ except for
+     setting the variable CACHE-ID, see below.
+
+   It is common to find buggy macros using `AC_CACHE_VAL' or
+`AC_CACHE_CHECK', because people are tempted to call `AC_DEFINE' in the
+COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT.  Instead, the code that _follows_ the call to
+`AC_CACHE_VAL' should call `AC_DEFINE', by examining the value of the
+cache variable.  For instance, the following macro is broken:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_SHELL_TRUE],
+     [AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether true(1) works], [my_cv_shell_true_works],
+                     [my_cv_shell_true_works=no
+                      (true) 2>/dev/null && my_cv_shell_true_works=yes
+                      if test "x$my_cv_shell_true_works" = xyes; then
+                        AC_DEFINE([TRUE_WORKS], [1],
+                                  [Define if `true(1)' works properly.])
+                      fi])
+     ])
+
+This fails if the cache is enabled: the second time this macro is run,
+`TRUE_WORKS' _will not be defined_.  The proper implementation is:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_SHELL_TRUE],
+     [AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether true(1) works], [my_cv_shell_true_works],
+                     [my_cv_shell_true_works=no
+                      (true) 2>/dev/null && my_cv_shell_true_works=yes])
+      if test "x$my_cv_shell_true_works" = xyes; then
+        AC_DEFINE([TRUE_WORKS], [1],
+                  [Define if `true(1)' works properly.])
+      fi
+     ])
+
+   Also, COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT should not print any messages, for example
+with `AC_MSG_CHECKING'; do that before calling `AC_CACHE_VAL', so the
+messages are printed regardless of whether the results of the check are
+retrieved from the cache or determined by running the shell commands.

+
+7.4.1 Cache Variable Names
+--------------------------
+
+The names of cache variables should have the following format:
+
+     PACKAGE-PREFIX_cv_VALUE-TYPE_SPECIFIC-VALUE_[ADDITIONAL-OPTIONS]
+
+for example, `ac_cv_header_stat_broken' or
+`ac_cv_prog_gcc_traditional'.  The parts of the variable name are:
+
+PACKAGE-PREFIX
+     An abbreviation for your package or organization; the same prefix
+     you begin local Autoconf macros with, except lowercase by
+     convention.  For cache values used by the distributed Autoconf
+     macros, this value is `ac'.
+
+`_cv_'
+     Indicates that this shell variable is a cache value.  This string
+     _must_ be present in the variable name, including the leading
+     underscore.
+
+VALUE-TYPE
+     A convention for classifying cache values, to produce a rational
+     naming system.  The values used in Autoconf are listed in *note
+     Macro Names::.
+
+SPECIFIC-VALUE
+     Which member of the class of cache values this test applies to.
+     For example, which function (`alloca'), program (`gcc'), or output
+     variable (`INSTALL').
+
+ADDITIONAL-OPTIONS
+     Any particular behavior of the specific member that this test
+     applies to.  For example, `broken' or `set'.  This part of the
+     name may be omitted if it does not apply.
+
+   The values assigned to cache variables may not contain newlines.
+Usually, their values are Boolean (`yes' or `no') or the names of files
+or functions; so this is not an important restriction.  *note Cache
+Variable Index:: for an index of cache variables with documented
+semantics.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Cache Files,  Next: Cache Checkpointing,  Prev: Cache Variable Names,  Up: Caching Results
+
+7.4.2 Cache Files
+-----------------
+
+A cache file is a shell script that caches the results of configure
+tests run on one system so they can be shared between configure scripts
+and configure runs.  It is not useful on other systems.  If its contents
+are invalid for some reason, the user may delete or edit it, or override
+documented cache variables on the `configure' command line.
+
+   By default, `configure' uses no cache file, to avoid problems caused
+by accidental use of stale cache files.
+
+   To enable caching, `configure' accepts `--config-cache' (or `-C') to
+cache results in the file `config.cache'.  Alternatively,
+`--cache-file=FILE' specifies that FILE be the cache file.  The cache
+file is created if it does not exist already.  When `configure' calls
+`configure' scripts in subdirectories, it uses the `--cache-file'
+argument so that they share the same cache.  *Note Subdirectories::,
+for information on configuring subdirectories with the
+`AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS' macro.
+
+   `config.status' only pays attention to the cache file if it is given
+the `--recheck' option, which makes it rerun `configure'.
+
+   It is wrong to try to distribute cache files for particular system
+types.  There is too much room for error in doing that, and too much
+administrative overhead in maintaining them.  For any features that
+can't be guessed automatically, use the standard method of the canonical
+system type and linking files (*note Manual Configuration::).
+
+   The site initialization script can specify a site-wide cache file to
+use, instead of the usual per-program cache.  In this case, the cache
+file gradually accumulates information whenever someone runs a new
+`configure' script.  (Running `configure' merges the new cache results
+with the existing cache file.)  This may cause problems, however, if
+the system configuration (e.g., the installed libraries or compilers)
+changes and the stale cache file is not deleted.
+
+   If `configure' is interrupted at the right time when it updates a
+cache file outside of the build directory where the `configure' script
+is run, it may leave behind a temporary file named after the cache file
+with digits following it.  You may safely delete such a file.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Cache Checkpointing,  Prev: Cache Files,  Up: Caching Results
+
+7.4.3 Cache Checkpointing
+-------------------------
+
+If your configure script, or a macro called from `configure.ac', happens
+to abort the configure process, it may be useful to checkpoint the cache
+a few times at key points using `AC_CACHE_SAVE'.  Doing so reduces the
+amount of time it takes to rerun the configure script with (hopefully)
+the error that caused the previous abort corrected.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CACHE_LOAD
+     Loads values from existing cache file, or creates a new cache file
+     if a cache file is not found.  Called automatically from `AC_INIT'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CACHE_SAVE
+     Flushes all cached values to the cache file.  Called automatically
+     from `AC_OUTPUT', but it can be quite useful to call
+     `AC_CACHE_SAVE' at key points in `configure.ac'.
+
+   For instance:
+
+      ... AC_INIT, etc. ...
+     # Checks for programs.
+     AC_PROG_CC
+     AC_PROG_AWK
+      ... more program checks ...
+     AC_CACHE_SAVE
+
+     # Checks for libraries.
+     AC_CHECK_LIB([nsl], [gethostbyname])
+     AC_CHECK_LIB([socket], [connect])
+      ... more lib checks ...
+     AC_CACHE_SAVE
+
+     # Might abort...
+     AM_PATH_GTK([1.0.2], [], [AC_MSG_ERROR([GTK not in path])])
+     AM_PATH_GTKMM([0.9.5], [], [AC_MSG_ERROR([GTK not in path])])
+      ... AC_OUTPUT, etc. ...

+
+7.5 Printing Messages
+=====================
+
+`configure' scripts need to give users running them several kinds of
+information.  The following macros print messages in ways appropriate
+for each kind.  The arguments to all of them get enclosed in shell
+double quotes, so the shell performs variable and back-quote
+substitution on them.
+
+   These macros are all wrappers around the `echo' shell command.  They
+direct output to the appropriate file descriptor (*note File Descriptor
+Macros::).  `configure' scripts should rarely need to run `echo'
+directly to print messages for the user.  Using these macros makes it
+easy to change how and when each kind of message is printed; such
+changes need only be made to the macro definitions and all the callers
+change automatically.
+
+   To diagnose static issues, i.e., when `autoconf' is run, see *note
+Diagnostic Macros::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_CHECKING (FEATURE-DESCRIPTION)
+     Notify the user that `configure' is checking for a particular
+     feature.  This macro prints a message that starts with `checking '
+     and ends with `...' and no newline.  It must be followed by a call
+     to `AC_MSG_RESULT' to print the result of the check and the
+     newline.  The FEATURE-DESCRIPTION should be something like
+     `whether the Fortran compiler accepts C++ comments' or `for c89'.
+
+     This macro prints nothing if `configure' is run with the `--quiet'
+     or `--silent' option.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_RESULT (RESULT-DESCRIPTION)
+     Notify the user of the results of a check.  RESULT-DESCRIPTION is
+     almost always the value of the cache variable for the check,
+     typically `yes', `no', or a file name.  This macro should follow a
+     call to `AC_MSG_CHECKING', and the RESULT-DESCRIPTION should be
+     the completion of the message printed by the call to
+     `AC_MSG_CHECKING'.
+
+     This macro prints nothing if `configure' is run with the `--quiet'
+     or `--silent' option.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_NOTICE (MESSAGE)
+     Deliver the MESSAGE to the user.  It is useful mainly to print a
+     general description of the overall purpose of a group of feature
+     checks, e.g.,
+
+          AC_MSG_NOTICE([checking if stack overflow is detectable])
+
+     This macro prints nothing if `configure' is run with the `--quiet'
+     or `--silent' option.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_ERROR (ERROR-DESCRIPTION, [EXIT-STATUS = `$?/1'])
+     Notify the user of an error that prevents `configure' from
+     completing.  This macro prints an error message to the standard
+     error output and exits `configure' with EXIT-STATUS (`$?' by
+     default, except that `0' is converted to `1').  ERROR-DESCRIPTION
+     should be something like `invalid value $HOME for \$HOME'.
+
+     The ERROR-DESCRIPTION should start with a lower-case letter, and
+     "cannot" is preferred to "can't".
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_FAILURE (ERROR-DESCRIPTION, [EXIT-STATUS])
+     This `AC_MSG_ERROR' wrapper notifies the user of an error that
+     prevents `configure' from completing _and_ that additional details
+     are provided in `config.log'.  This is typically used when
+     abnormal results are found during a compilation.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MSG_WARN (PROBLEM-DESCRIPTION)
+     Notify the `configure' user of a possible problem.  This macro
+     prints the message to the standard error output; `configure'
+     continues running afterward, so macros that call `AC_MSG_WARN'
+     should provide a default (back-up) behavior for the situations
+     they warn about.  PROBLEM-DESCRIPTION should be something like `ln
+     -s seems to make hard links'.

+
+   As of this version of Autoconf, these two layers still contain

+
+The most common problem with existing macros is an improper quotation.
+This section, which users of Autoconf can skip, but which macro writers
+_must_ read, first justifies the quotation scheme that was chosen for
+Autoconf and then ends with a rule of thumb.  Understanding the former
+helps one to follow the latter.

+
+8.1.1 Active Characters
+-----------------------
+
+To fully understand where proper quotation is important, you first need
+to know what the special characters are in Autoconf: `#' introduces a
+comment inside which no macro expansion is performed, `,' separates
+arguments, `[' and `]' are the quotes themselves(1), `(' and `)' (which
+M4 tries to match by pairs), and finally `$' inside a macro definition.
+
+   In order to understand the delicate case of macro calls, we first
+have to present some obvious failures.  Below they are "obvious-ified",
+but when you find them in real life, they are usually in disguise.
+
+   Comments, introduced by a hash and running up to the newline, are
+opaque tokens to the top level: active characters are turned off, and
+there is no macro expansion:
+
+     # define([def], ine)
+     =># define([def], ine)
+
+   Each time there can be a macro expansion, there is a quotation
+expansion, i.e., one level of quotes is stripped:
+
+     int tab[10];
+     =>int tab10;
+     [int tab[10];]
+     =>int tab[10];
+
+   Without this in mind, the reader might try hopelessly to use her
+macro `array':
+
+     define([array], [int tab[10];])
+     array
+     =>int tab10;
+     [array]
+     =>array
+
+How can you correctly output the intended results(2)?
+
+   ---------- Footnotes ----------
+
+   (1) By itself, M4 uses ``' and `''; it is the M4sugar layer that
+sets up the preferred quotes of `[' and `]'.
+
+   (2) Using `defn'.

+
+8.1.2 One Macro Call
+--------------------
+
+Let's proceed on the interaction between active characters and macros
+with this small macro, which just returns its first argument:
+
+     define([car], [$1])
+
+The two pairs of quotes above are not part of the arguments of
+`define'; rather, they are understood by the top level when it tries to
+find the arguments of `define'.  Therefore, assuming `car' is not
+already defined, it is equivalent to write:
+
+     define(car, $1)
+
+But, while it is acceptable for a `configure.ac' to avoid unnecessary
+quotes, it is bad practice for Autoconf macros which must both be more
+robust and also advocate perfect style.
+
+   At the top level, there are only two possibilities: either you quote
+or you don't:
+
+     car(foo, bar, baz)
+     =>foo
+     [car(foo, bar, baz)]
+     =>car(foo, bar, baz)
+
+   Let's pay attention to the special characters:
+
+     car(#)
+     error-->EOF in argument list
+
+   The closing parenthesis is hidden in the comment; with a hypothetical
+quoting, the top level understood it this way:
+
+     car([#)]
+
+Proper quotation, of course, fixes the problem:
+
+     car([#])
+     =>#
+
+   Here are more examples:
+
+     car(foo, bar)
+     =>foo
+     car([foo, bar])
+     =>foo, bar
+     car((foo, bar))
+     =>(foo, bar)
+     car([(foo], [bar)])
+     =>(foo
+     define([a], [b])
+     =>
+     car(a)
+     =>b
+     car([a])
+     =>b
+     car([[a]])
+     =>a
+     car([[[a]]])
+     =>[a]

+
+8.1.3 Quoting and Parameters
+----------------------------
+
+When M4 encounters `$' within a macro definition, followed immediately
+by a character it recognizes (`0'...`9', `#', `@', or `*'), it will
+perform M4 parameter expansion.  This happens regardless of how many
+layers of quotes the parameter expansion is nested within, or even if
+it occurs in text that will be rescanned as a comment.
+
+     define([none], [$1])
+     =>
+     define([one], [[$1]])
+     =>
+     define([two], [[[$1]]])
+     =>
+     define([comment], [# $1])
+     =>
+     define([active], [ACTIVE])
+     =>
+     none([active])
+     =>ACTIVE
+     one([active])
+     =>active
+     two([active])
+     =>[active]
+     comment([active])
+     =># active
+
+   On the other hand, since autoconf generates shell code, you often
+want to output shell variable expansion, rather than performing M4
+parameter expansion.  To do this, you must use M4 quoting to separate
+the `$' from the next character in the definition of your macro.  If
+the macro definition occurs in single-quoted text, then insert another
+level of quoting; if the usage is already inside a double-quoted
+string, then split it into concatenated strings.
+
+     define([single], [a single-quoted $[]1 definition])
+     =>
+     define([double], [[a double-quoted $][1 definition]])
+     =>
+     single
+     =>a single-quoted $1 definition
+     double
+     =>a double-quoted $1 definition
+
+   Posix states that M4 implementations are free to provide
+implementation extensions when `${' is encountered in a macro
+definition.  Autoconf reserves the longer sequence `${{' for use with
+planned extensions that will be available in the future GNU M4 2.0, but
+guarantees that all other instances of `${' will be output literally.
+Therefore, this idiom can also be used to output shell code parameter
+references:

+     define([first], [${1}])first
+     =>${1}
+
+   Posix also states that `$11' should expand to the first parameter
+concatenated with a literal `1', although some versions of GNU M4
+expand the eleventh parameter instead.  For portability, you should
+only use single-digit M4 parameter expansion.
+
+   With this in mind, we can explore the cases where macros invoke
+macros...

+
+8.1.4 Quotation and Nested Macros
+---------------------------------
+
+The examples below use the following macros:
+
+     define([car], [$1])
+     define([active], [ACT, IVE])
+     define([array], [int tab[10]])
+
+   Each additional embedded macro call introduces other possible
+interesting quotations:
+
+     car(active)
+     =>ACT
+     car([active])
+     =>ACT, IVE
+     car([[active]])
+     =>active
+
+   In the first case, the top level looks for the arguments of `car',
+and finds `active'.  Because M4 evaluates its arguments before applying
+the macro, `active' is expanded, which results in:
+
+     car(ACT, IVE)
+     =>ACT
+
+In the second case, the top level gives `active' as first and only
+argument of `car', which results in:
+
+     active
+     =>ACT, IVE
+
+i.e., the argument is evaluated _after_ the macro that invokes it.  In
+the third case, `car' receives `[active]', which results in:
+
+     [active]
+     =>active
+
+exactly as we already saw above.
+
+   The example above, applied to a more realistic example, gives:
+
+     car(int tab[10];)
+     =>int tab10;
+     car([int tab[10];])
+     =>int tab10;
+     car([[int tab[10];]])
+     =>int tab[10];
+
+Huh?  The first case is easily understood, but why is the second wrong,
+and the third right?  To understand that, you must know that after M4
+expands a macro, the resulting text is immediately subjected to macro
+expansion and quote removal.  This means that the quote removal occurs
+twice--first before the argument is passed to the `car' macro, and
+second after the `car' macro expands to the first argument.
+
+   As the author of the Autoconf macro `car', you then consider it to
+be incorrect that your users have to double-quote the arguments of
+`car', so you "fix" your macro.  Let's call it `qar' for quoted car:
+
+     define([qar], [[$1]])
+
+and check that `qar' is properly fixed:
+
+     qar([int tab[10];])
+     =>int tab[10];
+
+Ahhh!  That's much better.
+
+   But note what you've done: now that the result of `qar' is always a
+literal string, the only time a user can use nested macros is if she
+relies on an _unquoted_ macro call:
+
+     qar(active)
+     =>ACT
+     qar([active])
+     =>active
+
+leaving no way for her to reproduce what she used to do with `car':
+
+     car([active])
+     =>ACT, IVE
+
+Worse yet: she wants to use a macro that produces a set of `cpp' macros:
+
+     define([my_includes], [#include <stdio.h>])
+     car([my_includes])
+     =>#include <stdio.h>
+     qar(my_includes)
+     error-->EOF in argument list
+
+   This macro, `qar', because it double quotes its arguments, forces
+its users to leave their macro calls unquoted, which is dangerous.
+Commas and other active symbols are interpreted by M4 before they are
+given to the macro, often not in the way the users expect.  Also,
+because `qar' behaves differently from the other macros, it's an
+exception that should be avoided in Autoconf.

+
+8.1.5 `changequote' is Evil
+---------------------------
+
+The temptation is often high to bypass proper quotation, in particular
+when it's late at night.  Then, many experienced Autoconf hackers
+finally surrender to the dark side of the force and use the ultimate
+weapon: `changequote'.
+
+   The M4 builtin `changequote' belongs to a set of primitives that
+allow one to adjust the syntax of the language to adjust it to one's
+needs.  For instance, by default M4 uses ``' and `'' as quotes, but in
+the context of shell programming (and actually of most programming
+languages), that's about the worst choice one can make: because of
+strings and back-quoted expressions in shell code (such as `'this'' and
+``that`'), and because of literal characters in usual programming
+languages (as in `'0''), there are many unbalanced ``' and `''.  Proper
+M4 quotation then becomes a nightmare, if not impossible.  In order to
+make M4 useful in such a context, its designers have equipped it with
+`changequote', which makes it possible to choose another pair of
+quotes.  M4sugar, M4sh, Autoconf, and Autotest all have chosen to use
+`[' and `]'.  Not especially because they are unlikely characters, but
+_because they are characters unlikely to be unbalanced_.
+
+   There are other magic primitives, such as `changecom' to specify
+what syntactic forms are comments (it is common to see `changecom(<!--,
+-->)' when M4 is used to produce HTML pages), `changeword' and
+`changesyntax' to change other syntactic details (such as the character
+to denote the Nth argument, `$' by default, the parentheses around
+arguments, etc.).
+
+   These primitives are really meant to make M4 more useful for specific
+domains: they should be considered like command line options:
+`--quotes', `--comments', `--words', and `--syntax'.  Nevertheless,
+they are implemented as M4 builtins, as it makes M4 libraries self
+contained (no need for additional options).
+
+   There lies the problem...
+
+
+   The problem is that it is then tempting to use them in the middle of
+an M4 script, as opposed to its initialization.  This, if not carefully
+thought out, can lead to disastrous effects: _you are changing the
+language in the middle of the execution_.  Changing and restoring the
+syntax is often not enough: if you happened to invoke macros in between,
+these macros are lost, as the current syntax is probably not the one
+they were implemented with.

+
+8.1.6 Quadrigraphs
+------------------
+
+When writing an Autoconf macro you may occasionally need to generate
+special characters that are difficult to express with the standard
+Autoconf quoting rules.  For example, you may need to output the regular
+expression `[^[]', which matches any character other than `['.  This
+expression contains unbalanced brackets so it cannot be put easily into
+an M4 macro.
+
+   Additionally, there are a few m4sugar macros (such as `m4_split' and
+`m4_expand') which internally use special markers in addition to the
+regular quoting characters.  If the arguments to these macros contain
+the literal strings `-=<{(' or `)}>=-', the macros might behave
+incorrectly.
+
+   You can work around these problems by using one of the following
+"quadrigraphs":
+
+`@<:@'
+     `['
+
+`@:>@'
+     `]'
+
+`@S|@'
+     `$'
+
+`@%:@'
+     `#'
+
+`@{:@'
+     `('
+
+`@:}@'
+     `)'
+
+`@&t@'
+     Expands to nothing.
+
+   Quadrigraphs are replaced at a late stage of the translation process,
+after `m4' is run, so they do not get in the way of M4 quoting.  For
+example, the string `^@<:@', independently of its quotation, appears as
+`^[' in the output.
+
+   The empty quadrigraph can be used:
+
+   - to mark trailing spaces explicitly
+
+     Trailing spaces are smashed by `autom4te'.  This is a feature.
+
+   - to produce quadrigraphs and other strings reserved by m4sugar
+
+     For instance `@<@&t@:@' produces `@<:@'.  For a more contrived
+     example:
+
+          m4_define([a], [A])m4_define([b], [B])m4_define([c], [C])dnl
+          m4_split([a )}>=- b -=<{( c])
+          =>[a], [], [B], [], [c]
+          m4_split([a )}@&t@>=- b -=<@&t@{( c])
+          =>[a], [)}>=-], [b], [-=<{(], [c]
+
+   - to escape _occurrences_ of forbidden patterns
+
+     For instance you might want to mention `AC_FOO' in a comment, while
+     still being sure that `autom4te' still catches unexpanded `AC_*'.
+     Then write `AC@&t@_FOO'.
+
+   The name `@&t@' was suggested by Paul Eggert:
+
+     I should give some credit to the `@&t@' pun.  The `&' is my own
+     invention, but the `t' came from the source code of the ALGOL68C
+     compiler, written by Steve Bourne (of Bourne shell fame), and
+     which used `mt' to denote the empty string.  In C, it would have
+     looked like something like:
+
+          char const mt[] = "";
+
+     but of course the source code was written in Algol 68.
+
+     I don't know where he got `mt' from: it could have been his own
+     invention, and I suppose it could have been a common pun around the
+     Cambridge University computer lab at the time.

+
+8.1.7 Dealing with unbalanced parentheses
+-----------------------------------------
+
+One of the pitfalls of portable shell programming is that `case'
+statements require unbalanced parentheses (*note Limitations of Shell
+Builtins: case.).  With syntax highlighting editors, the presence of
+unbalanced `)' can interfere with editors that perform syntax
+highlighting of macro contents based on finding the matching `('.
+Another concern is how much editing must be done when transferring code
+snippets between shell scripts and macro definitions.  But most
+importantly, the presence of unbalanced parentheses can introduce
+expansion bugs.
+
+   For an example, here is an underquoted attempt to use the macro
+`my_case', which happens to expand to a portable `case' statement:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+     [case $file_name in
+       *.c) echo "C source code";;
+     esac])
+     AS_IF(:, my_case)
+
+In the above example, the `AS_IF' call underquotes its arguments.  As a
+result, the unbalanced `)' generated by the premature expansion of
+`my_case' results in expanding `AS_IF' with a truncated parameter, and
+the expansion is syntactically invalid:
+
+     if :; then
+       case $file_name in
+       *.c
+     fi echo "C source code";;
+     esac)
+
+   If nothing else, this should emphasize the importance of the quoting
+arguments to macro calls.  On the other hand, there are several
+variations for defining `my_case' to be more robust, even when used
+without proper quoting, each with some benefits and some drawbacks.
+
+     Creative literal shell comment
+          AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+          [case $file_name in #(
+            *.c) echo "C source code";;
+          esac])
+     This version provides balanced parentheses to several editors, and
+     can be copied and pasted into a terminal as is.  Unfortunately, it
+     is still unbalanced as an Autoconf argument, since `#(' is an M4
+     comment that masks the normal properties of `('.
+
+     Quadrigraph shell comment
+          AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+          [case $file_name in @%:@(
+            *.c) echo "C source code";;
+          esac])
+     This version provides balanced parentheses to even more editors,
+     and can be used as a balanced Autoconf argument.  Unfortunately,
+     it requires some editing before it can be copied and pasted into a
+     terminal, and the use of the quadrigraph `@%:@' for `#' reduces
+     readability.
+
+     Quoting just the parenthesis
+          AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+          [case $file_name in
+            *.c[)] echo "C source code";;
+          esac])
+     This version quotes the `)', so that it can be used as a balanced
+     Autoconf argument.  As written, this is not balanced to an editor,
+     but it can be coupled with `[#(]' to meet that need, too.
+     However, it still requires some edits before it can be copied and
+     pasted into a terminal.
+
+     Double-quoting the entire statement
+          AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+          [[case $file_name in #(
+            *.c) echo "C source code";;
+          esac]])
+     Since the entire macro is double-quoted, there is no problem with
+     using this as an Autoconf argument; and since the double-quoting
+     is over the entire statement, this code can be easily copied and
+     pasted into a terminal.  However, the double quoting prevents the
+     expansion of any macros inside the case statement, which may cause
+     its own set of problems.
+
+     Using `AS_CASE'
+          AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+          [AS_CASE([$file_name],
+            [*.c], [echo "C source code"])])
+     This version avoids the balancing issue altogether, by relying on
+     `AS_CASE' (*note Common Shell Constructs::); it also allows for the
+     expansion of `AC_REQUIRE' to occur prior to the entire case
+     statement, rather than within a branch of the case statement that
+     might not be taken.  However, the abstraction comes with a penalty
+     that it is no longer a quick copy, paste, and edit to get back to
+     shell code.
+

+
+8.1.8 Quotation Rule Of Thumb
+-----------------------------
+
+To conclude, the quotation rule of thumb is:
+
+             _One pair of quotes per pair of parentheses._
+
+   Never over-quote, never under-quote, in particular in the definition
+of macros.  In the few places where the macros need to use brackets
+(usually in C program text or regular expressions), properly quote _the
+arguments_!
+
+   It is common to read Autoconf programs with snippets like:
+
+     AC_TRY_LINK(
+     changequote(<<, >>)dnl
+     <<#include <time.h>
+     #ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+     extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+     #endif>>,
+     changequote([, ])dnl
+     [atoi (*tzname);], ac_cv_var_tzname=yes, ac_cv_var_tzname=no)
+
+which is incredibly useless since `AC_TRY_LINK' is _already_ double
+quoting, so you just need:
+
+     AC_TRY_LINK(
+     [#include <time.h>
+     #ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+     extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+     #endif],
+                 [atoi (*tzname);],
+                 [ac_cv_var_tzname=yes],
+                 [ac_cv_var_tzname=no])
+
+The M4-fluent reader might note that these two examples are rigorously
+equivalent, since M4 swallows both the `changequote(<<, >>)' and `<<'
+`>>' when it "collects" the arguments: these quotes are not part of the
+arguments!
+
+   Simplified, the example above is just doing this:
+
+     changequote(<<, >>)dnl
+     <<[]>>
+     changequote([, ])dnl
+
+instead of simply:
+
+     [[]]
+
+   With macros that do not double quote their arguments (which is the
+rule), double-quote the (risky) literals:
+
+     AC_LINK_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
+     [[#include <time.h>
+     #ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+     extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+     #endif]],
+                                     [atoi (*tzname);])],
+                    [ac_cv_var_tzname=yes],
+                    [ac_cv_var_tzname=no])
+
+   Please note that the macro `AC_TRY_LINK' is obsolete, so you really
+should be using `AC_LINK_IFELSE' instead.
+
+   *Note Quadrigraphs::, for what to do if you run into a hopeless case
+where quoting does not suffice.
+
+   When you create a `configure' script using newly written macros,
+examine it carefully to check whether you need to add more quotes in
+your macros.  If one or more words have disappeared in the M4 output,
+you need more quotes.  When in doubt, quote.
+
+   However, it's also possible to put on too many layers of quotes.  If
+this happens, the resulting `configure' script may contain unexpanded
+macros.  The `autoconf' program checks for this problem by looking for
+the string `AC_' in `configure'.  However, this heuristic does not work
+in general: for example, it does not catch overquoting in `AC_DEFINE'
+descriptions.

+8.2 Using `autom4te'
+====================
+
+The Autoconf suite, including M4sugar, M4sh, and Autotest, in addition
+to Autoconf per se, heavily rely on M4.  All these different uses
+revealed common needs factored into a layer over M4: `autom4te'(1).
+
+   `autom4te' is a preprocessor that is like `m4'.  It supports M4
+extensions designed for use in tools like Autoconf.

+
+8.2.1 Invoking `autom4te'
+-------------------------
+
+The command line arguments are modeled after M4's:
+
+     autom4te OPTIONS FILES
+
+where the FILES are directly passed to `m4'.  By default, GNU M4 is
+found during configuration, but the environment variable `M4' can be
+set to tell `autom4te' where to look.  In addition to the regular
+expansion, it handles the replacement of the quadrigraphs (*note
+Quadrigraphs::), and of `__oline__', the current line in the output.
+It supports an extended syntax for the FILES:
+
+`FILE.m4f'
+     This file is an M4 frozen file.  Note that _all the previous files
+     are ignored_.  See the option `--melt' for the rationale.
+
+`FILE?'
+     If found in the library path, the FILE is included for expansion,
+     otherwise it is ignored instead of triggering a failure.
+
+
+   Of course, it supports the Autoconf common subset of options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Report processing steps.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files and be even more verbose.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Also look for input files in DIR.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+`--output=FILE'
+`-o FILE'
+     Save output (script or trace) to FILE.  The file `-' stands for
+     the standard output.
+
+
+   As an extension of `m4', it includes the following options:
+
+`--warnings=CATEGORY'
+`-W CATEGORY'
+     Report the warnings related to CATEGORY (which can actually be a
+     comma separated list).  *Note Reporting Messages::, macro
+     `AC_DIAGNOSE', for a comprehensive list of categories.  Special
+     values include:
+
+    `all'
+          report all the warnings
+
+    `none'
+          report none
+
+    `error'
+          treats warnings as errors
+
+    `no-CATEGORY'
+          disable warnings falling into CATEGORY
+
+     Warnings about `syntax' are enabled by default, and the environment
+     variable `WARNINGS', a comma separated list of categories, is
+     honored.  `autom4te -W CATEGORY' actually behaves as if you had
+     run:
+
+          autom4te --warnings=syntax,$WARNINGS,CATEGORY
+
+     For example, if you want to disable defaults and `WARNINGS' of
+     `autom4te', but enable the warnings about obsolete constructs, you
+     would use `-W none,obsolete'.
+
+     `autom4te' displays a back trace for errors, but not for warnings;
+     if you want them, just pass `-W error'.
+
+`--melt'
+`-M'
+     Do not use frozen files.  Any argument `FILE.m4f' is replaced by
+     `FILE.m4'.  This helps tracing the macros which are executed only
+     when the files are frozen, typically `m4_define'.  For instance,
+     running:
+
+          autom4te --melt 1.m4 2.m4f 3.m4 4.m4f input.m4
+
+     is roughly equivalent to running:
+
+          m4 1.m4 2.m4 3.m4 4.m4 input.m4
+
+     while
+
+          autom4te 1.m4 2.m4f 3.m4 4.m4f input.m4
+
+     is equivalent to:
+
+          m4 --reload-state=4.m4f input.m4
+
+`--freeze'
+`-F'
+     Produce a frozen state file.  `autom4te' freezing is stricter than
+     M4's: it must produce no warnings, and no output other than empty
+     lines (a line with white space is _not_ empty) and comments
+     (starting with `#').  Unlike `m4''s similarly-named option, this
+     option takes no argument:
+
+          autom4te 1.m4 2.m4 3.m4 --freeze --output=3.m4f
+
+     corresponds to
+
+          m4 1.m4 2.m4 3.m4 --freeze-state=3.m4f
+
+`--mode=OCTAL-MODE'
+`-m OCTAL-MODE'
+     Set the mode of the non-traces output to OCTAL-MODE; by default
+     `0666'.
+
+
+   As another additional feature over `m4', `autom4te' caches its
+results.  GNU M4 is able to produce a regular output and traces at the
+same time.  Traces are heavily used in the GNU Build System:
+`autoheader' uses them to build `config.h.in', `autoreconf' to
+determine what GNU Build System components are used, `automake' to
+"parse" `configure.ac' etc.  To avoid recomputation, traces are cached
+while performing regular expansion, and conversely.  This cache is
+(actually, the caches are) stored in the directory `autom4te.cache'.
+_It can safely be removed_ at any moment (especially if for some reason
+`autom4te' considers it trashed).
+
+`--cache=DIRECTORY'
+`-C DIRECTORY'
+     Specify the name of the directory where the result should be
+     cached.  Passing an empty value disables caching.  Be sure to pass
+     a relative file name, as for the time being, global caches are not
+     supported.
+
+`--no-cache'
+     Don't cache the results.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+     If a cache is used, consider it obsolete (but update it anyway).
+
+
+   Because traces are so important to the GNU Build System, `autom4te'
+provides high level tracing features as compared to M4, and helps
+exploiting the cache:
+
+`--trace=MACRO[:FORMAT]'
+`-t MACRO[:FORMAT]'
+     Trace the invocations of MACRO according to the FORMAT.  Multiple
+     `--trace' arguments can be used to list several macros.  Multiple
+     `--trace' arguments for a single macro are not cumulative;
+     instead, you should just make FORMAT as long as needed.
+
+     The FORMAT is a regular string, with newlines if desired, and
+     several special escape codes.  It defaults to `$f:$l:$n:$%'.  It
+     can use the following special escapes:
+
+    `$$'
+          The character `$'.
+
+    `$f'
+          The file name from which MACRO is called.
+
+    `$l'
+          The line number from which MACRO is called.
+
+    `$d'
+          The depth of the MACRO call.  This is an M4 technical detail
+          that you probably don't want to know about.
+
+    `$n'
+          The name of the MACRO.
+
+    `$NUM'
+          The NUMth argument of the call to MACRO.
+
+    `$@'
+    `$SEP@'
+    `${SEPARATOR}@'
+          All the arguments passed to MACRO, separated by the character
+          SEP or the string SEPARATOR (`,' by default).  Each argument
+          is quoted, i.e., enclosed in a pair of square brackets.
+
+    `$*'
+    `$SEP*'
+    `${SEPARATOR}*'
+          As above, but the arguments are not quoted.
+
+    `$%'
+    `$SEP%'
+    `${SEPARATOR}%'
+          As above, but the arguments are not quoted, all new line
+          characters in the arguments are smashed, and the default
+          separator is `:'.
+
+          The escape `$%' produces single-line trace outputs (unless
+          you put newlines in the `separator'), while `$@' and `$*' do
+          not.
+
+     *Note autoconf Invocation::, for examples of trace uses.
+
+`--preselect=MACRO'
+`-p MACRO'
+     Cache the traces of MACRO, but do not enable traces.  This is
+     especially important to save CPU cycles in the future.  For
+     instance, when invoked, `autoconf' preselects all the macros that
+     `autoheader', `automake', `autoreconf', etc., trace, so that
+     running `m4' is not needed to trace them: the cache suffices.
+     This results in a huge speed-up.
+
+
+   Finally, `autom4te' introduces the concept of "Autom4te libraries".
+They consists in a powerful yet extremely simple feature: sets of
+combined command line arguments:
+
+`--language=LANGUAGE'
+`-l LANGUAGE'
+     Use the LANGUAGE Autom4te library.  Current languages include:
+
+    `M4sugar'
+          create M4sugar output.
+
+    `M4sh'
+          create M4sh executable shell scripts.
+
+    `Autotest'
+          create Autotest executable test suites.
+
+    `Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4'
+          create Autoconf executable configure scripts without reading
+          `aclocal.m4'.
+
+    `Autoconf'
+          create Autoconf executable configure scripts.  This language
+          inherits all the characteristics of
+          `Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4' and additionally reads
+          `aclocal.m4'.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend directory DIR to the search path.  This is used to include
+     the language-specific files before any third-party macros.
+
+
+   As an example, if Autoconf is installed in its default location,
+`/usr/local', the command `autom4te -l m4sugar foo.m4' is strictly
+equivalent to the command:
+
+     autom4te --prepend-include /usr/local/share/autoconf \
+       m4sugar/m4sugar.m4f --warnings syntax foo.m4
+
+Recursive expansion applies here: the command `autom4te -l m4sh foo.m4'
+is the same as `autom4te --language M4sugar m4sugar/m4sh.m4f foo.m4',
+i.e.:
+
+     autom4te --prepend-include /usr/local/share/autoconf \
+       m4sugar/m4sugar.m4f m4sugar/m4sh.m4f --mode 777 foo.m4
+
+The definition of the languages is stored in `autom4te.cfg'.

+
+8.2.2 Customizing `autom4te'
+----------------------------
+
+One can customize `autom4te' via `~/.autom4te.cfg' (i.e., as found in
+the user home directory), and `./.autom4te.cfg' (i.e., as found in the
+directory from which `autom4te' is run).  The order is first reading
+`autom4te.cfg', then `~/.autom4te.cfg', then `./.autom4te.cfg', and
+finally the command line arguments.
+
+   In these text files, comments are introduced with `#', and empty
+lines are ignored.  Customization is performed on a per-language basis,
+wrapped in between a `begin-language: "LANGUAGE"', `end-language:
+"LANGUAGE"' pair.
+
+   Customizing a language stands for appending options (*note autom4te
+Invocation::) to the current definition of the language.  Options, and
+more generally arguments, are introduced by `args: ARGUMENTS'.  You may
+use the traditional shell syntax to quote the ARGUMENTS.
+
+   As an example, to disable Autoconf caches (`autom4te.cache')
+globally, include the following lines in `~/.autom4te.cfg':
+
+## ------------------ ##
+## User Preferences.  ##
+## ------------------ ##
+
+begin-language: "Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4"
+args: --no-cache
+end-language: "Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4"

+8.3 Programming in M4sugar
+==========================
+
+M4 by itself provides only a small, but sufficient, set of all-purpose
+macros.  M4sugar introduces additional generic macros.  Its name was
+coined by Lars J. Aas: "Readability And Greater Understanding Stands 4
+M4sugar".
+
+   M4sugar reserves the macro namespace `^_m4_' for internal use, and
+the macro namespace `^m4_' for M4sugar macros.  You should not define
+your own macros into these namespaces.

+
+8.3.1 Redefined M4 Macros
+-------------------------
+
+With a few exceptions, all the M4 native macros are moved in the `m4_'
+pseudo-namespace, e.g., M4sugar renames `define' as `m4_define' etc.
+
+   The list of macros unchanged from M4, except for their name, is:
+   - m4_builtin
+
+   - m4_changecom
+
+   - m4_changequote
+
+   - m4_debugfile
+
+   - m4_debugmode
+
+   - m4_decr
+
+   - m4_define
+
+   - m4_divnum
+
+   - m4_errprint
+
+   - m4_esyscmd
+
+   - m4_eval
+
+   - m4_format
+
+   - m4_ifdef
+
+   - m4_incr
+
+   - m4_index
+
+   - m4_indir
+
+   - m4_len
+
+   - m4_pushdef
+
+   - m4_shift
+
+   - m4_substr
+
+   - m4_syscmd
+
+   - m4_sysval
+
+   - m4_traceoff
+
+   - m4_traceon
+
+   - m4_translit
+
+   Some M4 macros are redefined, and are slightly incompatible with
+their native equivalent.
+
+ -- Macro: __file__
+ -- Macro: __line__
+     All M4 macros starting with `__' retain their original name: for
+     example, no `m4__file__' is defined.
+
+ -- Macro: __oline__
+     This is not technically a macro, but a feature of Autom4te.  The
+     sequence `__oline__' can be used similarly to the other m4sugar
+     location macros, but rather than expanding to the location of the
+     input file, it is translated to the line number where it appears
+     in the output file after all other M4 expansions.
+
+ -- Macro: dnl
+     This macro kept its original name: no `m4_dnl' is defined.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_bpatsubst (STRING, REGEXP, [REPLACEMENT])
+     This macro corresponds to `patsubst'.  The name `m4_patsubst' is
+     kept for future versions of M4sugar, once GNU M4 2.0 is released
+     and supports extended regular expression syntax.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_bregexp (STRING, REGEXP, [REPLACEMENT])
+     This macro corresponds to `regexp'.  The name `m4_regexp' is kept
+     for future versions of M4sugar, once GNU M4 2.0 is released and
+     supports extended regular expression syntax.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_copy (SOURCE, DEST)
+ -- Macro: m4_copy_force (SOURCE, DEST)
+ -- Macro: m4_rename (SOURCE, DEST)
+ -- Macro: m4_rename_force (SOURCE, DEST)
+     These macros aren't directly builtins, but are closely related to
+     `m4_pushdef' and `m4_defn'.  `m4_copy' and `m4_rename' ensure that
+     DEST is undefined, while `m4_copy_force' and `m4_rename_force'
+     overwrite any existing definition.  All four macros then proceed
+     to copy the entire pushdef stack of definitions of SOURCE over to
+     DEST.  `m4_copy' and `m4_copy_force' preserve the source
+     (including in the special case where SOURCE is undefined), while
+     `m4_rename' and `m4_rename_force' undefine the original macro name
+     (making it an error to rename an undefined SOURCE).
+
+     Note that attempting to invoke a renamed macro might not work,
+     since the macro may have a dependence on helper macros accessed
+     via composition of `$0' but that were not also renamed; likewise,
+     other macros may have a hard-coded dependence on SOURCE and could
+     break if SOURCE has been deleted.  On the other hand, it is always
+     safe to rename a macro to temporarily move it out of the way, then
+     rename it back later to restore original semantics.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_defn (MACRO...)
+     This macro fails if MACRO is not defined, even when using older
+     versions of M4 that did not warn.  See `m4_undefine'.
+     Unfortunately, in order to support these older versions of M4,
+     there are some situations involving unbalanced quotes where
+     concatenating multiple macros together will work in newer M4 but
+     not in m4sugar; use quadrigraphs to work around this.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_divert (DIVERSION)
+     M4sugar relies heavily on diversions, so rather than behaving as a
+     primitive, `m4_divert' behaves like:
+          m4_divert_pop()m4_divert_push([DIVERSION])
+     *Note Diversion support::, for more details about the use of the
+     diversion stack.  In particular, this implies that DIVERSION
+     should be a named diversion rather than a raw number.  But be
+     aware that it is seldom necessary to explicitly change the
+     diversion stack, and that when done incorrectly, it can lead to
+     syntactically invalid scripts.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_dumpdef (NAME...)
+ -- Macro: m4_dumpdefs (NAME...)
+     `m4_dumpdef' is like the M4 builtin, except that this version
+     requires at least one argument, output always goes to standard
+     error rather than the current debug file, no sorting is done on
+     multiple arguments, and an error is issued if any NAME is
+     undefined.  `m4_dumpdefs' is a convenience macro that calls
+     `m4_dumpdef' for all of the `m4_pushdef' stack of definitions,
+     starting with the current, and silently does nothing if NAME is
+     undefined.
+
+     Unfortunately, due to a limitation in M4 1.4.x, any macro defined
+     as a builtin is output as the empty string.  This behavior is
+     rectified by using M4 1.6 or newer.  However, this behavior
+     difference means that `m4_dumpdef' should only be used while
+     developing m4sugar macros, and never in the final published form
+     of a macro.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_esyscmd_s (COMMAND)
+     Like `m4_esyscmd', this macro expands to the result of running
+     COMMAND in a shell.  The difference is that any trailing newlines
+     are removed, so that the output behaves more like shell command
+     substitution.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_exit (EXIT-STATUS)
+     This macro corresponds to `m4exit'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_if (COMMENT)
+ -- Macro: m4_if (STRING-1, STRING-2, EQUAL, [NOT-EQUAL])
+ -- Macro: m4_if (STRING-1, STRING-2, EQUAL-1, STRING-3, STRING-4,
+          EQUAL-2, ..., [NOT-EQUAL])
+     This macro corresponds to `ifelse'.  STRING-1 and STRING-2 are
+     compared literally, so usually one of the two arguments is passed
+     unquoted.  *Note Conditional constructs::, for more conditional
+     idioms.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_include (FILE)
+ -- Macro: m4_sinclude (FILE)
+     Like the M4 builtins, but warn against multiple inclusions of FILE.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_mkstemp (TEMPLATE)
+ -- Macro: m4_maketemp (TEMPLATE)
+     Posix requires `maketemp' to replace the trailing `X' characters
+     in TEMPLATE with the process id, without regards to the existence
+     of a file by that name, but this a security hole.  When this was
+     pointed out to the Posix folks, they agreed to invent a new macro
+     `mkstemp' that always creates a uniquely named file, but not all
+     versions of GNU M4 support the new macro.  In M4sugar,
+     `m4_maketemp' and `m4_mkstemp' are synonyms for each other, and
+     both have the secure semantics regardless of which macro the
+     underlying M4 provides.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_popdef (MACRO...)
+     This macro fails if MACRO is not defined, even when using older
+     versions of M4 that did not warn.  See `m4_undefine'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_undefine (MACRO...)
+     This macro fails if MACRO is not defined, even when using older
+     versions of M4 that did not warn.  Use
+
+          m4_ifdef([MACRO], [m4_undefine([MACRO])])
+
+     if you are not sure whether MACRO is defined.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_undivert (DIVERSION...)
+     Unlike the M4 builtin, at least one DIVERSION must be specified.
+     Also, since the M4sugar diversion stack prefers named diversions,
+     the use of `m4_undivert' to include files is risky.  *Note
+     Diversion support::, for more details about the use of the
+     diversion stack.  But be aware that it is seldom necessary to
+     explicitly change the diversion stack, and that when done
+     incorrectly, it can lead to syntactically invalid scripts.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_wrap (TEXT)
+ -- Macro: m4_wrap_lifo (TEXT)
+     These macros correspond to `m4wrap'.  Posix requires arguments of
+     multiple wrap calls to be reprocessed at EOF in the same order as
+     the original calls (first-in, first-out).  GNU M4 versions through
+     1.4.10, however, reprocess them in reverse order (last-in,
+     first-out).  Both orders are useful, therefore, you can rely on
+     `m4_wrap' to provide FIFO semantics and `m4_wrap_lifo' for LIFO
+     semantics, regardless of the underlying GNU M4 version.
+
+     Unlike the GNU M4 builtin, these macros only recognize one
+     argument, and avoid token pasting between consecutive invocations.
+     On the other hand, nested calls to `m4_wrap' from within wrapped
+     text work just as in the builtin.

+
+8.3.2 Diagnostic messages from M4sugar
+--------------------------------------
+
+When macros statically diagnose abnormal situations, benign or fatal,
+they should report them using these macros.  For issuing dynamic issues,
+i.e., when `configure' is run, see *note Printing Messages::.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_assert (EXPRESSION, [EXIT-STATUS = `1'])
+     Assert that the arithmetic EXPRESSION evaluates to non-zero.
+     Otherwise, issue a fatal error, and exit `autom4te' with
+     EXIT-STATUS.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_errprintn (MESSAGE)
+     Similar to the builtin `m4_errprint', except that a newline is
+     guaranteed after MESSAGE.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_fatal (MESSAGE)
+     Report a severe error MESSAGE prefixed with the current location,
+     and have `autom4te' die.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_location
+     Useful as a prefix in a message line.  Short for:
+          __file__:__line__
+
+ -- Macro: m4_warn (CATEGORY, MESSAGE)
+     Report MESSAGE as a warning (or as an error if requested by the
+     user) if warnings of the CATEGORY are turned on.  If the message
+     is emitted, it is prefixed with the current location, and followed
+     by a call trace of all macros defined via `AC_DEFUN' used to get
+     to the current expansion.  You are encouraged to use standard
+     categories, which currently include:
+
+    `all'
+          messages that don't fall into one of the following
+          categories.  Use of an empty CATEGORY is equivalent.
+
+    `cross'
+          related to cross compilation issues.
+
+    `obsolete'
+          use of an obsolete construct.
+
+    `syntax'
+          dubious syntactic constructs, incorrectly ordered macro calls.

+
+8.3.3 Diversion support
+-----------------------
+
+M4sugar makes heavy use of diversions under the hood, because it is
+often the case that text that must appear early in the output is not
+discovered until late in the input.  Additionally, some of the
+topological sorting algorithms used in resolving macro dependencies use
+diversions.  However, most macros should not need to change diversions
+directly, but rather rely on higher-level M4sugar macros to manage
+diversions transparently.  If you change diversions improperly, you
+risk generating a syntactically invalid script, because an incorrect
+diversion will violate assumptions made by many macros about whether
+prerequisite text has been previously output.  In short, if you
+manually change the diversion, you should not expect any macros
+provided by the Autoconf package to work until you have restored the
+diversion stack back to its original state.
+
+   In the rare case that it is necessary to write a macro that
+explicitly outputs text to a different diversion, it is important to be
+aware of an M4 limitation regarding diversions: text only goes to a
+diversion if it is not part of argument collection.  Therefore, any
+macro that changes the current diversion cannot be used as an unquoted
+argument to another macro, but must be expanded at the top level.  The
+macro `m4_expand' will diagnose any attempt to change diversions, since
+it is generally useful only as an argument to another macro.  The
+following example shows what happens when diversion manipulation is
+attempted within macro arguments:
+
+     m4_do([normal text]
+     m4_divert_push([KILL])unwanted[]m4_divert_pop([KILL])
+     [m4_divert_push([KILL])discarded[]m4_divert_pop([KILL])])dnl
+     =>normal text
+     =>unwanted
+
+Notice that the unquoted text `unwanted' is output, even though it was
+processed while the current diversion was `KILL', because it was
+collected as part of the argument to `m4_do'.  However, the text
+`discarded' disappeared as desired, because the diversion changes were
+single-quoted, and were not expanded until the top-level rescan of the
+output of `m4_do'.
+
+   To make diversion management easier, M4sugar uses the concept of
+named diversions.  Rather than using diversion numbers directly, it is
+nicer to associate a name with each diversion.  The diversion number
+associated with a particular diversion name is an implementation
+detail, and a syntax warning is issued if a diversion number is used
+instead of a name.  In general, you should not output text to a named
+diversion until after calling the appropriate initialization routine
+for your language (`m4_init', `AS_INIT', `AT_INIT', ...), although
+there are some exceptions documented below.
+
+   M4sugar defines two named diversions.
+`KILL'
+     Text written to this diversion is discarded.  This is the default
+     diversion once M4sugar is initialized.
+
+`GROW'
+     This diversion is used behind the scenes by topological sorting
+     macros, such as `AC_REQUIRE'.
+
+   M4sh adds several more named diversions.
+`BINSH'
+     This diversion is reserved for the `#!' interpreter line.
+
+`HEADER-REVISION'
+     This diversion holds text from `AC_REVISION'.
+
+`HEADER-COMMENT'
+     This diversion holds comments about the purpose of a file.
+
+`HEADER-COPYRIGHT'
+     This diversion is managed by `AC_COPYRIGHT'.
+
+`M4SH-SANITIZE'
+     This diversion contains M4sh sanitization code, used to ensure
+     M4sh is executing in a reasonable shell environment.
+
+`M4SH-INIT'
+     This diversion contains M4sh initialization code, initializing
+     variables that are required by other M4sh macros.
+
+`BODY'
+     This diversion contains the body of the shell code, and is the
+     default diversion once M4sh is initialized.
+
+   Autotest inherits diversions from M4sh, and changes the default
+diversion from `BODY' back to `KILL'.  It also adds several more named
+diversions, with the following subset designed for developer use.
+`PREPARE_TESTS'
+     This diversion contains initialization sequences which are executed
+     after `atconfig' and `atlocal', and after all command line
+     arguments have been parsed, but prior to running any tests.  It
+     can be used to set up state that is required across all tests.
+     This diversion will work even before `AT_INIT'.
+
+   Autoconf inherits diversions from M4sh, and adds the following named
+diversions which developers can utilize.
+`DEFAULTS'
+     This diversion contains shell variable assignments to set defaults
+     that must be in place before arguments are parsed.  This diversion
+     is placed early enough in `configure' that it is unsafe to expand
+     any autoconf macros into this diversion.
+
+`HELP_ENABLE'
+     If `AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER' was used, then text placed in this
+     diversion will be included as part of a quoted here-doc providing
+     all of the `--help' output of `configure' related to options
+     created by `AC_ARG_WITH' and `AC_ARG_ENABLE'.
+
+`INIT_PREPARE'
+     This diversion occurs after all command line options have been
+     parsed, but prior to the main body of the `configure' script.  This
+     diversion is the last chance to insert shell code such as variable
+     assignments or shell function declarations that will used by the
+     expansion of other macros.
+
+   For now, the remaining named diversions of Autoconf, Autoheader, and
+Autotest are not documented.  In other words, intentionally outputting
+text into an undocumented diversion is subject to breakage in a future
+release of Autoconf.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_cleardivert (DIVERSION...)
+     Permanently discard any text that has been diverted into DIVERSION.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_divert_once (DIVERSION, [CONTENT])
+     Similar to `m4_divert_text', except that CONTENT is only output to
+     DIVERSION if this is the first time that `m4_divert_once' has been
+     called with its particular arguments.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_divert_pop ([DIVERSION])
+     If provided, check that the current diversion is indeed DIVERSION.
+     Then change to the diversion located earlier on the stack, giving
+     an error if an attempt is made to pop beyond the initial m4sugar
+     diversion of `KILL'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_divert_push (DIVERSION)
+     Remember the former diversion on the diversion stack, and output
+     subsequent text into DIVERSION.  M4sugar maintains a diversion
+     stack, and issues an error if there is not a matching pop for every
+     push.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_divert_text (DIVERSION, [CONTENT])
+     Output CONTENT and a newline into DIVERSION, without affecting the
+     current diversion.  Shorthand for:
+          m4_divert_push([DIVERSION])CONTENT
+          m4_divert_pop([DIVERSION])dnl
+
+     One use of `m4_divert_text' is to develop two related macros, where
+     macro `MY_A' does the work, but adjusts what work is performed
+     based on whether the optional macro `MY_B' has also been expanded.
+     Of course, it is possible to use `AC_BEFORE' within `MY_A' to
+     require that `MY_B' occurs first, if it occurs at all.  But this
+     imposes an ordering restriction on the user; it would be nicer if
+     macros `MY_A' and `MY_B' can be invoked in either order.  The trick
+     is to let `MY_B' leave a breadcrumb in an early diversion, which
+     `MY_A' can then use to determine whether `MY_B' has been expanded.
+
+          AC_DEFUN([MY_A],
+          [# various actions
+          if test -n "$b_was_used"; then
+            # extra action
+          fi])

+
+8.3.4 Conditional constructs
+----------------------------
+
+The following macros provide additional conditional constructs as
+convenience wrappers around `m4_if'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_bmatch (STRING, REGEX-1, VALUE-1, [REGEX-2], [VALUE-2],
+          ..., [DEFAULT])
+     The string STRING is repeatedly compared against a series of REGEX
+     arguments; if a match is found, the expansion is the corresponding
+     VALUE, otherwise, the macro moves on to the next REGEX.  If no
+     REGEX match, then the result is the optional DEFAULT, or nothing.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_bpatsubsts (STRING, REGEX-1, SUBST-1, [REGEX-2],
+          [SUBST-2], ...)
+     The string STRING is altered by REGEX-1 and SUBST-1, as if by:
+          m4_bpatsubst([[STRING]], [REGEX], [SUBST])
+
+     The result of the substitution is then passed through the next set
+     of REGEX and SUBST, and so forth.  An empty SUBST implies deletion
+     of any matched portions in the current string.  Note that this
+     macro over-quotes STRING; this behavior is intentional, so that
+     the result of each step of the recursion remains as a quoted
+     string.  However, it means that anchors (`^' and `$' in the REGEX
+     will line up with the extra quotations, and not the characters of
+     the original string.  The overquoting is removed after the final
+     substitution.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_case (STRING, VALUE-1, IF-VALUE-1, [VALUE-2],
+          [IF-VALUE-2], ..., [DEFAULT])
+     Test STRING against multiple VALUE possibilities, resulting in the
+     first IF-VALUE for a match, or in the optional DEFAULT.  This is
+     shorthand for:
+          m4_if([STRING], [VALUE-1], [IF-VALUE-1],
+                [STRING], [VALUE-2], [IF-VALUE-2], ...,
+                [DEFAULT])
+
+ -- Macro: m4_cond (TEST-1, VALUE-1, IF-VALUE-1, [TEST-2], [VALUE-2],
+          [IF-VALUE-2], ..., [DEFAULT])
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Similar to `m4_if',
+     except that each TEST is expanded only when it is encountered.
+     This is useful for short-circuiting expensive tests; while `m4_if'
+     requires all its strings to be expanded up front before doing
+     comparisons, `m4_cond' only expands a TEST when all earlier tests
+     have failed.
+
+     For an example, these two sequences give the same result, but in
+     the case where `$1' does not contain a backslash, the `m4_cond'
+     version only expands `m4_index' once, instead of five times, for
+     faster computation if this is a common case for `$1'.  Notice that
+     every third argument is unquoted for `m4_if', and quoted for
+     `m4_cond':
+
+          m4_if(m4_index([$1], [\]), [-1], [$2],
+                m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\\]) >= 0), [1], [$2],
+                m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\$]) >= 0), [1], [$2],
+                m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\`]) >= 0), [1], [$3],
+                m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\"]) >= 0), [1], [$3],
+                [$2])
+          m4_cond([m4_index([$1], [\])], [-1], [$2],
+                  [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\\]) >= 0)], [1], [$2],
+                  [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\$]) >= 0)], [1], [$2],
+                  [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\`]) >= 0)], [1], [$3],
+                  [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\"]) >= 0)], [1], [$3],
+                  [$2])
+
+ -- Macro: m4_default (EXPR-1, EXPR-2)
+ -- Macro: m4_default_quoted (EXPR-1, EXPR-2)
+ -- Macro: m4_default_nblank (EXPR-1, [EXPR-2])
+ -- Macro: m4_default_nblank_quoted (EXPR-1, [EXPR-2])
+     If EXPR-1 contains text, use it.  Otherwise, select EXPR-2.
+     `m4_default' expands the result, while `m4_default_quoted' does
+     not.  Useful for providing a fixed default if the expression that
+     results in EXPR-1 would otherwise be empty.  The difference
+     between `m4_default' and `m4_default_nblank' is whether an
+     argument consisting of just blanks (space, tab, newline) is
+     significant.  When using the expanding versions, note that an
+     argument may contain text but still expand to an empty string.

+ -- Macro: m4_define_default (MACRO, [DEFAULT-DEFINITION])
+     If MACRO does not already have a definition, then define it to

+
+ -- Macro: m4_ifblank (COND, [IF-BLANK], [IF-TEXT])
+ -- Macro: m4_ifnblank (COND, [IF-TEXT], [IF-BLANK])
+     If COND is empty or consists only of blanks (space, tab, newline),
+     then expand IF-BLANK; otherwise, expand IF-TEXT.  Two variants
+     exist, in order to make it easier to select the correct logical
+     sense when using only two parameters.  Note that this is more
+     efficient than the equivalent behavior of:
+          m4_ifval(m4_normalize([COND]), IF-TEXT, IF-BLANK)
+
+ -- Macro: m4_ifndef (MACRO, IF-NOT-DEFINED, [IF-DEFINED])
+     This is shorthand for:
+          m4_ifdef([MACRO], [IF-DEFINED], [IF-NOT-DEFINED])
+
+ -- Macro: m4_ifset (MACRO, [IF-TRUE], [IF-FALSE])
+     If MACRO is undefined, or is defined as the empty string, expand
+     to IF-FALSE.  Otherwise, expands to IF-TRUE.  Similar to:
+          m4_ifval(m4_defn([MACRO]), [IF-TRUE], [IF-FALSE])
+     except that it is not an error if MACRO is undefined.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_ifval (COND, [IF-TRUE], [IF-FALSE])
+     Expands to IF-TRUE if COND is not empty, otherwise to IF-FALSE.
+     This is shorthand for:
+          m4_if([COND], [], [IF-FALSE], [IF-TRUE])
+
+ -- Macro: m4_ifvaln (COND, [IF-TRUE], [IF-FALSE])
+     Similar to `m4_ifval', except guarantee that a newline is present
+     after any non-empty expansion.  Often followed by `dnl'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_n (TEXT)
+     Expand to TEXT, and add a newline if TEXT is not empty.  Often
+     followed by `dnl'.

+
+8.3.5 Looping constructs
+------------------------
+
+The following macros are useful in implementing recursive algorithms in
+M4, including loop operations.  An M4 list is formed by quoting a list
+of quoted elements; generally the lists are comma-separated, although
+`m4_foreach_w' is whitespace-separated.  For example, the list `[[a],
+[b,c]]' contains two elements: `[a]' and `[b,c]'.  It is common to see
+lists with unquoted elements when those elements are not likely to be
+macro names, as in `[fputc_unlocked, fgetc_unlocked]'.
+
+   Although not generally recommended, it is possible for quoted lists
+to have side effects; all side effects are expanded only once, and
+prior to visiting any list element.  On the other hand, the fact that
+unquoted macros are expanded exactly once means that macros without
+side effects can be used to generate lists.  For example,
+
+     m4_foreach([i], [[1], [2], [3]m4_errprintn([hi])], [i])
+     error-->hi
+     =>123
+     m4_define([list], [[1], [2], [3]])
+     =>
+     m4_foreach([i], [list], [i])
+     =>123
+
+ -- Macro: m4_argn (N, [ARG]...)
+     Extracts argument N (larger than 0) from the remaining arguments.
+     If there are too few arguments, the empty string is used.  For any
+     N besides 1, this is more efficient than the similar
+     `m4_car(m4_shiftn([N], [], [ARG...]))'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_car (ARG...)
+     Expands to the quoted first ARG.  Can be used with `m4_cdr' to
+     recursively iterate through a list.  Generally, when using quoted
+     lists of quoted elements, `m4_car' should be called without any
+     extra quotes.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_cdr (ARG...)
+     Expands to a quoted list of all but the first ARG, or the empty
+     string if there was only one argument.  Generally, when using
+     quoted lists of quoted elements, `m4_cdr' should be called without
+     any extra quotes.
+
+     For example, this is a simple implementation of `m4_map'; note how
+     each iteration checks for the end of recursion, then merely
+     applies the first argument to the first element of the list, then
+     repeats with the rest of the list.  (The actual implementation in
+     M4sugar is a bit more involved, to gain some speed and share code
+     with `m4_map_sep', and also to avoid expanding side effects in
+     `$2' twice).
+          m4_define([m4_map], [m4_ifval([$2],
+            [m4_apply([$1], m4_car($2))[]$0([$1], m4_cdr($2))])])dnl
+          m4_map([ m4_eval], [[[1]], [[1+1]], [[10],[16]]])
+          => 1 2 a
+
+ -- Macro: m4_for (VAR, FIRST, LAST, [STEP], EXPRESSION)
+     Loop over the numeric values between FIRST and LAST including
+     bounds by increments of STEP.  For each iteration, expand
+     EXPRESSION with the numeric value assigned to VAR.  If STEP is
+     omitted, it defaults to `1' or `-1' depending on the order of the
+     limits.  If given, STEP has to match this order.  The number of
+     iterations is determined independently from definition of VAR;
+     iteration cannot be short-circuited or lengthened by modifying VAR
+     from within EXPRESSION.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_foreach (VAR, LIST, EXPRESSION)
+     Loop over the comma-separated M4 list LIST, assigning each value
+     to VAR, and expand EXPRESSION.  The following example outputs two
+     lines:
+
+          m4_foreach([myvar], [[foo], [bar, baz]],
+                     [echo myvar
+          ])dnl
+          =>echo foo
+          =>echo bar, baz
+
+     Note that for some forms of EXPRESSION, it may be faster to use
+     `m4_map_args'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_foreach_w (VAR, LIST, EXPRESSION)
+     Loop over the white-space-separated list LIST, assigning each value
+     to VAR, and expand EXPRESSION.  If VAR is only referenced once in
+     EXPRESSION, it is more efficient to use `m4_map_args_w'.
+
+     The deprecated macro `AC_FOREACH' is an alias of `m4_foreach_w'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_map (MACRO, LIST)
+ -- Macro: m4_mapall (MACRO, LIST)
+ -- Macro: m4_map_sep (MACRO, SEPARATOR, LIST)
+ -- Macro: m4_mapall_sep (MACRO, SEPARATOR, LIST)
+     Loop over the comma separated quoted list of argument descriptions
+     in LIST, and invoke MACRO with the arguments.  An argument
+     description is in turn a comma-separated quoted list of quoted
+     elements, suitable for `m4_apply'.  The macros `m4_map' and
+     `m4_map_sep' ignore empty argument descriptions, while `m4_mapall'
+     and `m4_mapall_sep' invoke MACRO with no arguments.  The macros
+     `m4_map_sep' and `m4_mapall_sep' additionally expand SEPARATOR
+     between invocations of MACRO.
+
+     Note that SEPARATOR is expanded, unlike in `m4_join'.  When
+     separating output with commas, this means that the map result can
+     be used as a series of arguments, by using a single-quoted comma as
+     SEPARATOR, or as a single string, by using a double-quoted comma.
+
+          m4_map([m4_count], [])
+          =>
+          m4_map([ m4_count], [[],
+                               [[1]],
+                               [[1], [2]]])
+          => 1 2
+          m4_mapall([ m4_count], [[],

+          =>a,b
+          m4_count(m4_map_sep([m4_echo], [[,]], [[[a]], [[b]]]))
+          =>1
+
+ -- Macro: m4_map_args (MACRO, ARG...)
+     Repeatedly invoke MACRO with each successive ARG as its only
+     argument.  In the following example, three solutions are presented
+     with the same expansion; the solution using `m4_map_args' is the
+     most efficient.
+          m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+          m4_foreach([var], [[plain], [active]], [ m4_echo(m4_defn([var]))])
+          => plain active
+          m4_map([ m4_echo], [[[plain]], [[active]]])
+          => plain active
+          m4_map_args([ m4_echo], [plain], [active])
+          => plain active
+
+     In cases where it is useful to operate on additional parameters
+     besides the list elements, the macro `m4_curry' can be used in
+     MACRO to supply the argument currying necessary to generate the
+     desired argument list.  In the following example, `list_add_n' is
+     more efficient than `list_add_x'.  On the other hand, using
+     `m4_map_args_sep' can be even more efficient.
+
+          m4_define([list], [[1], [2], [3]])dnl
+          m4_define([add], [m4_eval(([$1]) + ([$2]))])dnl
+          dnl list_add_n(N, ARG...)
+          dnl Output a list consisting of each ARG added to N
+          m4_define([list_add_n],
+          [m4_shift(m4_map_args([,m4_curry([add], [$1])], m4_shift($@)))])dnl
+          list_add_n([1], list)
+          =>2,3,4
+          list_add_n([2], list)
+          =>3,4,5
+          m4_define([list_add_x],
+          [m4_shift(m4_foreach([var], m4_dquote(m4_shift($@)),
+            [,add([$1],m4_defn([var]))]))])dnl
+          list_add_x([1], list)
+          =>2,3,4
+
+ -- Macro: m4_map_args_pair (MACRO, [MACRO-END = `macro'], ARG...)
+     For every pair of arguments ARG, invoke MACRO with two arguments.
+     If there is an odd number of arguments, invoke MACRO-END, which
+     defaults to MACRO, with the remaining argument.
+
+          m4_map_args_pair([, m4_reverse], [], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>, 2, 1, 3
+          m4_map_args_pair([, m4_reverse], [, m4_dquote], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>, 2, 1, [3]
+          m4_map_args_pair([, m4_reverse], [, m4_dquote], [1], [2], [3], [4])
+          =>, 2, 1, 4, 3
+
+ -- Macro: m4_map_args_sep ([PRE], [POST], [SEP], ARG...)
+     Expand the sequence `PRE[ARG]POST' for each argument, additionally
+     expanding SEP between arguments.  One common use of this macro is
+     constructing a macro call, where the opening and closing
+     parentheses are split between PRE and POST; in particular,
+     `m4_map_args([MACRO], [ARG])' is equivalent to
+     `m4_map_args_sep([MACRO(], [)], [], [ARG])'.  This macro provides
+     the most efficient means for iterating over an arbitrary list of
+     arguments, particularly when repeatedly constructing a macro call
+     with more arguments than ARG.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_map_args_w (STRING, [PRE], [POST], [SEP])
+     Expand the sequence `PRE[word]POST' for each word in the
+     whitespace-separated STRING, additionally expanding SEP between
+     words.  This macro provides the most efficient means for iterating
+     over a whitespace-separated string.  In particular,
+     `m4_map_args_w([STRING], [ACTION(], [)])' is more efficient than
+     `m4_foreach_w([var], [STRING], [ACTION(m4_defn([var]))])'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_shiftn (COUNT, ...)
+ -- Macro: m4_shift2 (...)
+ -- Macro: m4_shift3 (...)
+     `m4_shiftn' performs COUNT iterations of `m4_shift', along with
+     validation that enough arguments were passed in to match the shift
+     count, and that the count is positive.  `m4_shift2' and
+     `m4_shift3' are specializations of `m4_shiftn', introduced in
+     Autoconf 2.62, and are more efficient for two and three shifts,
+     respectively.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_stack_foreach (MACRO, ACTION)
+ -- Macro: m4_stack_foreach_lifo (MACRO, ACTION)
+     For each of the `m4_pushdef' definitions of MACRO, expand ACTION
+     with the single argument of a definition of MACRO.
+     `m4_stack_foreach' starts with the oldest definition, while
+     `m4_stack_foreach_lifo' starts with the current definition.
+     ACTION should not push or pop definitions of MACRO, nor is there
+     any guarantee that the current definition of MACRO matches the
+     argument that was passed to ACTION.  The macro `m4_curry' can be
+     used if ACTION needs more than one argument, although in that case
+     it is more efficient to use M4_STACK_FOREACH_SEP.
+
+     Due to technical limitations, there are a few low-level m4sugar
+     functions, such as `m4_pushdef', that cannot be used as the MACRO
+     argument.
+
+          m4_pushdef([a], [1])m4_pushdef([a], [2])dnl
+          m4_stack_foreach([a], [ m4_incr])
+          => 2 3
+          m4_stack_foreach_lifo([a], [ m4_curry([m4_substr], [abcd])])
+          => cd bcd
+
+ -- Macro: m4_stack_foreach_sep (MACRO, [PRE], [POST], [SEP])
+ -- Macro: m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo (MACRO, [PRE], [POST], [SEP])
+     Expand the sequence `PRE[definition]POST' for each `m4_pushdef'
+     definition of MACRO, additionally expanding SEP between
+     definitions.  `m4_stack_foreach_sep' visits the oldest definition
+     first, while `m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo' visits the current
+     definition first.  This macro provides the most efficient means
+     for iterating over a pushdef stack.  In particular,
+     `m4_stack_foreach([MACRO], [ACTION])' is short for
+     `m4_stack_foreach_sep([MACRO], [ACTION(], [)])'.

+8.3.6 Evaluation Macros
+-----------------------
+
+The following macros give some control over the order of the evaluation
+by adding or removing levels of quotes.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_apply (MACRO, LIST)
+     Apply the elements of the quoted, comma-separated LIST as the
+     arguments to MACRO.  If LIST is empty, invoke MACRO without
+     arguments.  Note the difference between `m4_indir', which expects
+     its first argument to be a macro name but can use names that are
+     otherwise invalid, and `m4_apply', where MACRO can contain other
+     text, but must end in a valid macro name.
+          m4_apply([m4_count], [])
+          =>0
+          m4_apply([m4_count], [[]])
+          =>1
+          m4_apply([m4_count], [[1], [2]])
+          =>2
+          m4_apply([m4_join], [[|], [1], [2]])
+          =>1|2
+
+ -- Macro: m4_count (ARG, ...)
+     This macro returns the decimal count of the number of arguments it
+     was passed.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_curry (MACRO, ARG...)
+     This macro performs argument currying.  The expansion of this
+     macro is another macro name that expects exactly one argument;
+     that argument is then appended to the ARG list, and then MACRO is
+     expanded with the resulting argument list.
+
+          m4_curry([m4_curry], [m4_reverse], [1])([2])([3])
+          =>3, 2, 1
+
+     Unfortunately, due to a limitation in M4 1.4.x, it is not possible
+     to pass the definition of a builtin macro as the argument to the
+     output of `m4_curry'; the empty string is used instead of the
+     builtin token.  This behavior is rectified by using M4 1.6 or
+     newer.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_do (ARG, ...)
+     This macro loops over its arguments and expands each ARG in
+     sequence.  Its main use is for readability; it allows the use of
+     indentation and fewer `dnl' to result in the same expansion.  This
+     macro guarantees that no expansion will be concatenated with
+     subsequent text; to achieve full concatenation, use
+     `m4_unquote(m4_join([], ARG...))'.
+
+          m4_define([ab],[1])m4_define([bc],[2])m4_define([abc],[3])dnl
+          m4_do([a],[b])c
+          =>abc
+          m4_unquote(m4_join([],[a],[b]))c
+          =>3
+          m4_define([a],[A])m4_define([b],[B])m4_define([c],[C])dnl
+          m4_define([AB],[4])m4_define([BC],[5])m4_define([ABC],[6])dnl
+          m4_do([a],[b])c
+          =>ABC
+          m4_unquote(m4_join([],[a],[b]))c
+          =>3
+
+ -- Macro: m4_dquote (ARG, ...)
+     Return the arguments as a quoted list of quoted arguments.
+     Conveniently, if there is just one ARG, this effectively adds a
+     level of quoting.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_dquote_elt (ARG, ...)
+     Return the arguments as a series of double-quoted arguments.
+     Whereas `m4_dquote' returns a single argument, `m4_dquote_elt'
+     returns as many arguments as it was passed.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_echo (ARG, ...)
+     Return the arguments, with the same level of quoting.  Other than
+     discarding whitespace after unquoted commas, this macro is a no-op.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_expand (ARG)
+     Return the expansion of ARG as a quoted string.  Whereas
+     `m4_quote' is designed to collect expanded text into a single
+     argument, `m4_expand' is designed to perform one level of expansion
+     on quoted text.  One distinction is in the treatment of whitespace
+     following a comma in the original ARG.  Any time multiple
+     arguments are collected into one with `m4_quote', the M4 argument
+     collection rules discard the whitespace.  However, with
+     `m4_expand', whitespace is preserved, even after the expansion of
+     macros contained in ARG.  Additionally, `m4_expand' is able to
+     expand text that would involve an unterminated comment, whereas
+     expanding that same text as the argument to `m4_quote' runs into
+     difficulty in finding the end of the argument.  Since manipulating
+     diversions during argument collection is inherently unsafe,
+     `m4_expand' issues an error if ARG attempts to change the current
+     diversion (*note Diversion support::).
+
+          m4_define([active], [ACT, IVE])dnl
+          m4_define([active2], [[ACT, IVE]])dnl
+          m4_quote(active, active)
+          =>ACT,IVE,ACT,IVE
+          m4_expand([active, active])
+          =>ACT, IVE, ACT, IVE
+          m4_quote(active2, active2)
+          =>ACT, IVE,ACT, IVE
+          m4_expand([active2, active2])
+          =>ACT, IVE, ACT, IVE
+          m4_expand([# m4_echo])
+          =># m4_echo
+          m4_quote(# m4_echo)
+          )
+          =># m4_echo)
+          =>
+
+     Note that `m4_expand' cannot handle an ARG that expands to literal
+     unbalanced quotes, but that quadrigraphs can be used when
+     unbalanced output is necessary.  Likewise, unbalanced parentheses
+     should be supplied with double quoting or a quadrigraph.
+
+          m4_define([pattern], [[!@<:@]])dnl
+          m4_define([bar], [BAR])dnl
+          m4_expand([case $foo in
+            m4_defn([pattern])@:}@ bar ;;
+            *[)] blah ;;
+          esac])
+          =>case $foo in
+          =>  [![]) BAR ;;
+          =>  *) blah ;;
+          =>esac
+
+ -- Macro: m4_ignore (...)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expands to nothing,
+     ignoring all of its arguments.  By itself, this isn't very useful.
+     However, it can be used to conditionally ignore an arbitrary
+     number of arguments, by deciding which macro name to apply to a
+     list of arguments.
+          dnl foo outputs a message only if [debug] is defined.
+          m4_define([foo],
+          [m4_ifdef([debug],[AC_MSG_NOTICE],[m4_ignore])([debug message])])
+
+     Note that for earlier versions of Autoconf, the macro `__gnu__' can
+     serve the same purpose, although it is less readable.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_make_list (ARG, ...)
+     This macro exists to aid debugging of M4sugar algorithms.  Its net
+     effect is similar to `m4_dquote'--it produces a quoted list of
+     quoted arguments, for each ARG.  The difference is that this
+     version uses a comma-newline separator instead of just comma, to
+     improve readability of the list; with the result that it is less
+     efficient than `m4_dquote'.
+          m4_define([zero],[0])m4_define([one],[1])m4_define([two],[2])dnl
+          m4_dquote(zero, [one], [[two]])
+          =>[0],[one],[[two]]
+          m4_make_list(zero, [one], [[two]])
+          =>[0],
+          =>[one],
+          =>[[two]]
+          m4_foreach([number], m4_dquote(zero, [one], [[two]]), [ number])
+          => 0 1 two
+          m4_foreach([number], m4_make_list(zero, [one], [[two]]), [ number])
+          => 0 1 two
+
+ -- Macro: m4_quote (ARG, ...)
+     Return the arguments as a single entity, i.e., wrap them into a
+     pair of quotes.  This effectively collapses multiple arguments
+     into one, although it loses whitespace after unquoted commas in
+     the process.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_reverse (ARG, ...)
+     Outputs each argument with the same level of quoting, but in
+     reverse order, and with space following each comma for readability.
+
+          m4_define([active], [ACT,IVE])
+          =>
+          m4_reverse(active, [active])
+          =>active, IVE, ACT
+
+ -- Macro: m4_unquote (ARG, ...)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expand each argument,
+     separated by commas.  For a single ARG, this effectively removes a
+     layer of quoting, and `m4_unquote([ARG])' is more efficient than
+     the equivalent `m4_do([ARG])'.  For multiple arguments, this
+     results in an unquoted list of expansions.  This is commonly used
+     with `m4_split', in order to convert a single quoted list into a
+     series of quoted elements.
+
+   The following example aims at emphasizing the difference between
+several scenarios: not using these macros, using `m4_defn', using
+`m4_quote', using `m4_dquote', and using `m4_expand'.
+
+     $ cat example.m4
+     dnl Overquote, so that quotes are visible.
+     m4_define([show], [$[]1 = [$1], $[]@ = [$@]])

+8.3.7 String manipulation in M4
+-------------------------------
+
+The following macros may be used to manipulate strings in M4.  Many of
+the macros in this section intentionally result in quoted strings as
+output, rather than subjecting the arguments to further expansions.  As
+a result, if you are manipulating text that contains active M4
+characters, the arguments are passed with single quoting rather than
+double.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_append (MACRO-NAME, STRING, [SEPARATOR])
+ -- Macro: m4_append_uniq (MACRO-NAME, STRING, [SEPARATOR] [IF-UNIQ],
+          [IF-DUPLICATE])
+     Redefine MACRO-NAME to its former contents with SEPARATOR and
+     STRING added at the end.  If MACRO-NAME was undefined before (but
+     not if it was defined but empty), then no SEPARATOR is added.  As
+     of Autoconf 2.62, neither STRING nor SEPARATOR are expanded during
+     this macro; instead, they are expanded when MACRO-NAME is invoked.
+
+     `m4_append' can be used to grow strings, and `m4_append_uniq' to
+     grow strings without duplicating substrings.  Additionally,
+     `m4_append_uniq' takes two optional parameters as of Autoconf 2.62;
+     IF-UNIQ is expanded if STRING was appended, and IF-DUPLICATE is
+     expanded if STRING was already present.  Also, `m4_append_uniq'
+     warns if SEPARATOR is not empty, but occurs within STRING, since
+     that can lead to duplicates.
+
+     Note that `m4_append' can scale linearly in the length of the final
+     string, depending on the quality of the underlying M4
+     implementation, while `m4_append_uniq' has an inherent quadratic
+     scaling factor.  If an algorithm can tolerate duplicates in the
+     final string, use the former for speed.  If duplicates must be
+     avoided, consider using `m4_set_add' instead (*note Set
+     manipulation Macros::).
+
+          m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+          m4_append([sentence], [This is an])dnl
+          m4_append([sentence], [ active ])dnl
+          m4_append([sentence], [symbol.])dnl
+          sentence
+          =>This is an ACTIVE symbol.
+          m4_undefine([active])dnl
+          =>This is an active symbol.
+          m4_append_uniq([list], [one], [, ], [new], [existing])

+          =>one, two, three
+          m4_dquote(list2)
+          =>[one, two, three]
+
+ -- Macro: m4_append_uniq_w (MACRO-NAME, STRINGS)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  It is similar to
+     `m4_append_uniq', but treats STRINGS as a whitespace separated
+     list of words to append, and only appends unique words.
+     MACRO-NAME is updated with a single space between new words.
+          m4_append_uniq_w([numbers], [1 1 2])dnl
+          m4_append_uniq_w([numbers], [ 2 3 ])dnl
+          numbers
+          =>1 2 3
+
+ -- Macro: m4_chomp (STRING)
+ -- Macro: m4_chomp_all (STRING)
+     Output STRING in quotes, but without a trailing newline.  The
+     macro `m4_chomp' is slightly faster, and removes at most one
+     newline; the macro `m4_chomp_all' removes all consecutive trailing
+     newlines.  Unlike `m4_flatten', embedded newlines are left intact,
+     and backslash does not influence the result.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_combine ([SEPARATOR], PREFIX-LIST, [INFIX], SUFFIX-1,
+          [SUFFIX-2], ...)
+     This macro produces a quoted string containing the pairwise
+     combination of every element of the quoted, comma-separated
+     PREFIX-LIST, and every element from the SUFFIX arguments.  Each
+     pairwise combination is joined with INFIX in the middle, and
+     successive pairs are joined by SEPARATOR.  No expansion occurs on
+     any of the arguments.  No output occurs if either the PREFIX or
+     SUFFIX list is empty, but the lists can contain empty elements.
+          m4_define([a], [oops])dnl
+          m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b], [c]], [-], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>a-1, a-2, a-3, b-1, b-2, b-3, c-1, c-2, c-3
+          m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b]], [-])
+          =>
+          m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b]], [-], [])
+          =>a-, b-
+          m4_combine([, ], [], [-], [1], [2])
+          =>
+          m4_combine([, ], [[]], [-], [1], [2])
+          =>-1, -2
+
+ -- Macro: m4_escape (STRING)
+     Convert all instances of `[', `]', `#', and `$' within STRING into
+     their respective quadrigraphs.  The result is still a quoted
+     string.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_flatten (STRING)
+     Flatten STRING into a single line.  Delete all backslash-newline
+     pairs, and replace all remaining newlines with a space.  The
+     result is still a quoted string.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_join ([SEPARATOR], ARGS...)
+ -- Macro: m4_joinall ([SEPARATOR], ARGS...)
+     Concatenate each ARG, separated by SEPARATOR.  `joinall' uses
+     every argument, while `join' omits empty arguments so that there
+     are no back-to-back separators in the output.  The result is a
+     quoted string.
+          m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+          m4_join([|], [one], [], [active], [two])
+          =>one|active|two
+          m4_joinall([|], [one], [], [active], [two])
+          =>one||active|two
+
+     Note that if all you intend to do is join ARGS with commas between
+     them, to form a quoted list suitable for `m4_foreach', it is more
+     efficient to use `m4_dquote'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_newline ([TEXT])
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62, and expands to a
+     newline, followed by any TEXT.  It is primarily useful for
+     maintaining macro formatting, and ensuring that M4 does not
+     discard leading whitespace during argument collection.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_normalize (STRING)
+     Remove leading and trailing spaces and tabs, sequences of
+     backslash-then-newline, and replace multiple spaces, tabs, and
+     newlines with a single space.  This is a combination of
+     `m4_flatten' and `m4_strip'.  To determine if STRING consists only
+     of bytes that would be removed by `m4_normalize', you can use
+     `m4_ifblank'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_re_escape (STRING)
+     Backslash-escape all characters in STRING that are active in
+     regexps.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_split (STRING, [REGEXP = `[\t ]+'])
+     Split STRING into an M4 list of elements quoted by `[' and `]',
+     while keeping white space at the beginning and at the end.  If
+     REGEXP is given, use it instead of `[\t ]+' for splitting.  If
+     STRING is empty, the result is an empty list.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_strip (STRING)
+     Strip whitespace from STRING.  Sequences of spaces and tabs are
+     reduced to a single space, then leading and trailing spaces are
+     removed.  The result is still a quoted string.  Note that this
+     does not interfere with newlines; if you want newlines stripped as
+     well, consider `m4_flatten', or do it all at once with
+     `m4_normalize'.  To quickly test if STRING has only whitespace,
+     use `m4_ifblank'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_text_box (MESSAGE, [FRAME = `-'])
+     Add a text box around MESSAGE, using FRAME as the border character
+     above and below the message.  The FRAME argument must be a single
+     byte, and does not support quadrigraphs.  The frame correctly
+     accounts for the subsequent expansion of MESSAGE.  For example:
+          m4_define([macro], [abc])dnl
+          m4_text_box([macro])
+          =>## --- ##
+          =>## abc ##
+          =>## --- ##
+
+     The MESSAGE must contain balanced quotes and parentheses, although
+     quadrigraphs can be used to work around this.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_text_wrap (STRING, [PREFIX], [PREFIX1 = `PREFIX'], [WIDTH
+          = `79'])
+     Break STRING into a series of whitespace-separated words, then
+     output those words separated by spaces, and wrapping lines any
+     time the output would exceed WIDTH columns.  If given, PREFIX1
+     begins the first line, and PREFIX begins all wrapped lines.  If
+     PREFIX1 is longer than PREFIX, then the first line consists of
+     just PREFIX1.  If PREFIX is longer than PREFIX1, padding is
+     inserted so that the first word of STRING begins at the same
+     indentation as all wrapped lines.  Note that using literal tab
+     characters in any of the arguments will interfere with the
+     calculation of width.  No expansions occur on PREFIX, PREFIX1, or
+     the words of STRING, although quadrigraphs are recognized.
+
+     For some examples:
+          m4_text_wrap([Short string */], [   ], [/* ], [20])
+          =>/* Short string */
+          m4_text_wrap([Much longer string */], [   ], [/* ], [20])
+          =>/* Much longer
+          =>   string */
+          m4_text_wrap([Short doc.], [          ], [  --short ], [30])
+          =>  --short Short doc.

+8.3.8 Arithmetic computation in M4
+----------------------------------
+
+The following macros facilitate integer arithmetic operations.  Where a
+parameter is documented as taking an arithmetic expression, you can use
+anything that can be parsed by `m4_eval'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_cmp (EXPR-1, EXPR-2)
+     Compare the arithmetic expressions EXPR-1 and EXPR-2, and expand
+     to `-1' if EXPR-1 is smaller, `0' if they are equal, and `1' if
+     EXPR-1 is larger.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_list_cmp (LIST-1, LIST-2)
+     Compare the two M4 lists consisting of comma-separated arithmetic
+     expressions, left to right.  Expand to `-1' for the first element
+     pairing where the value from LIST-1 is smaller, `1' where the
+     value from LIST-2 is smaller, or `0' if both lists have the same
+     values.  If one list is shorter than the other, the remaining
+     elements of the longer list are compared against zero.
+          m4_list_cmp([1, 0],       [1])
+          =>0
+          m4_list_cmp([1, [1 * 0]], [1, 0])
+          =>0
+          m4_list_cmp([1, 2],       [1, 0])
+          =>1
+          m4_list_cmp([1, [1+1], 3],[1, 2])
+          =>1
+          m4_list_cmp([1, 2, -3],   [1, 2])
+          =>-1
+          m4_list_cmp([1, 0],       [1, 2])
+          =>-1
+          m4_list_cmp([1],          [1, 2])
+          =>-1
+
+ -- Macro: m4_max (ARG, ...)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expand to the decimal
+     value of the maximum arithmetic expression among all the arguments.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_min (ARG, ...)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expand to the decimal
+     value of the minimum arithmetic expression among all the arguments.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_sign (EXPR)
+     Expand to `-1' if the arithmetic expression EXPR is negative, `1'
+     if it is positive, and `0' if it is zero.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_version_compare (VERSION-1, VERSION-2)
+     This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.53, but had a number of
+     usability limitations that were not lifted until Autoconf 2.62.
+     Compare the version strings VERSION-1 and VERSION-2, and expand to
+     `-1' if VERSION-1 is smaller, `0' if they are the same, or `1'
+     VERSION-2 is smaller.  Version strings must be a list of elements
+     separated by `.', `,' or `-', where each element is a number along
+     with optional case-insensitive letters designating beta releases.
+     The comparison stops at the leftmost element that contains a
+     difference, although a 0 element compares equal to a missing
+     element.
+
+     It is permissible to include commit identifiers in VERSION, such
+     as an abbreviated SHA1 of the commit, provided there is still a
+     monotonically increasing prefix to allow for accurate version-based
+     comparisons.  For example, this paragraph was written when the
+     development snapshot of autoconf claimed to be at version
+     `2.61a-248-dc51', or 248 commits after the 2.61a release, with an
+     abbreviated commit identification of `dc51'.
+
+          m4_version_compare([1.1], [2.0])
+          =>-1
+          m4_version_compare([2.0b], [2.0a])
+          =>1
+          m4_version_compare([1.1.1], [1.1.1a])
+          =>-1
+          m4_version_compare([1.2], [1.1.1a])
+          =>1
+          m4_version_compare([1.0], [1])
+          =>0
+          m4_version_compare([1.1pre], [1.1PRE])
+          =>0
+          m4_version_compare([1.1a], [1,10])
+          =>-1
+          m4_version_compare([2.61a], [2.61a-248-dc51])
+          =>-1
+          m4_version_compare([2.61b], [2.61a-248-dc51])
+          =>1
+
+ -- Macro: m4_version_prereq (VERSION, [IF-NEW-ENOUGH], [IF-OLD =
+          `m4_fatal'])
+     Compares VERSION against the version of Autoconf currently
+     running.  If the running version is at VERSION or newer, expand
+     IF-NEW-ENOUGH, but if VERSION is larger than the version currently
+     executing, expand IF-OLD, which defaults to printing an error
+     message and exiting m4sugar with status 63.  When given only one
+     argument, this behaves like `AC_PREREQ' (*note Versioning::).
+     Remember that the autoconf philosophy favors feature checks over
+     version checks.

+
+8.3.9 Set manipulation in M4
+----------------------------
+
+Sometimes, it is necessary to track a set of data, where the order does
+not matter and where there are no duplicates in the set.  The following
+macros facilitate set manipulations.  Each set is an opaque object,
+which can only be accessed via these basic operations.  The underlying
+implementation guarantees linear scaling for set creation, which is more
+efficient than using the quadratic `m4_append_uniq'.  Both set names
+and values can be arbitrary strings, except for unbalanced quotes.
+This implementation ties up memory for removed elements until the next
+operation that must traverse all the elements of a set; and although
+that may slow down some operations until the memory for removed elements
+is pruned, it still guarantees linear performance.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_add (SET, VALUE, [IF-UNIQ], [IF-DUP])
+     Adds the string VALUE as a member of set SET.  Expand IF-UNIQ if
+     the element was added, or IF-DUP if it was previously in the set.
+     Operates in amortized constant time, so that set creation scales
+     linearly.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_add_all (SET, VALUE...)
+     Adds each VALUE to the set SET.  This is slightly more efficient
+     than repeatedly invoking `m4_set_add'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_contains (SET, VALUE, [IF-PRESENT], [IF-ABSENT])
+     Expands IF-PRESENT if the string VALUE is a member of SET,
+     otherwise IF-ABSENT.
+
+          m4_set_contains([a], [1], [yes], [no])
+          =>no
+          m4_set_add([a], [1], [added], [dup])
+          =>added
+          m4_set_add([a], [1], [added], [dup])
+          =>dup
+          m4_set_contains([a], [1], [yes], [no])
+          =>yes
+          m4_set_remove([a], [1], [removed], [missing])
+          =>removed
+          m4_set_contains([a], [1], [yes], [no])
+          =>no
+          m4_set_remove([a], [1], [removed], [missing])
+          =>missing
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_contents (SET, [SEP])
+ -- Macro: m4_set_dump (SET, [SEP])
+     Expands to a single string consisting of all the members of the set
+     SET, each separated by SEP, which is not expanded.
+     `m4_set_contents' leaves the elements in SET but reclaims any
+     memory occupied by removed elements, while `m4_set_dump' is a
+     faster one-shot action that also deletes the set.  No provision is
+     made for disambiguating members that contain a non-empty SEP as a
+     substring; use `m4_set_empty' to distinguish between an empty set
+     and the set containing only the empty string.  The order of the
+     output is unspecified; in the current implementation, part of the
+     speed of `m4_set_dump' results from using a different output order
+     than `m4_set_contents'.  These macros scale linearly in the size
+     of the set before memory pruning, and `m4_set_contents([SET],
+     [SEP])' is faster than `m4_joinall([SEP]m4_set_listc([SET]))'.
+
+          m4_set_add_all([a], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>
+          m4_set_contents([a], [-])
+          =>1-2-3
+          m4_joinall([-]m4_set_listc([a]))
+          =>1-2-3
+          m4_set_dump([a], [-])
+          =>3-2-1
+          m4_set_contents([a])
+          =>
+          m4_set_add([a], [])
+          =>
+          m4_set_contents([a], [-])
+          =>
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_delete (SET)
+     Delete all elements and memory associated with SET.  This is
+     linear in the set size, and faster than removing one element at a
+     time.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_difference (SETA, SETB)
+ -- Macro: m4_set_intersection (SETA, SETB)
+ -- Macro: m4_set_union (SETA, SETB)
+     Compute the relation between SETA and SETB, and output the result
+     as a list of quoted arguments without duplicates and with a
+     leading comma.  Set difference selects the elements in SETA but
+     not SETB, intersection selects only elements in both sets, and
+     union selects elements in either set.  These actions are linear in
+     the sum of the set sizes.  The leading comma is necessary to
+     distinguish between no elements and the empty string as the only
+     element.
+
+          m4_set_add_all([a], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>
+          m4_set_add_all([b], [3], [], [4])
+          =>
+          m4_set_difference([a], [b])
+          =>,1,2
+          m4_set_difference([b], [a])
+          =>,,4
+          m4_set_intersection([a], [b])
+          =>,3
+          m4_set_union([a], [b])
+          =>,1,2,3,,4
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_empty (SET, [IF-EMPTY], [IF-ELEMENTS])
+     Expand IF-EMPTY if the set SET has no elements, otherwise expand
+     IF-ELEMENTS.  This macro operates in constant time.  Using this
+     macro can help disambiguate output from `m4_set_contents' or
+     `m4_set_list'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_foreach (SET, VARIABLE, ACTION)
+     For each element in the set SET, expand ACTION with the macro
+     VARIABLE defined as the set element.  Behavior is unspecified if
+     ACTION recursively lists the contents of SET (although listing
+     other sets is acceptable), or if it modifies the set in any way
+     other than removing the element currently contained in VARIABLE.
+     This macro is faster than the corresponding `m4_foreach([VARIABLE],
+     m4_indir([m4_dquote]m4_set_listc([SET])), [ACTION])', although
+     `m4_set_map' might be faster still.
+
+          m4_set_add_all([a]m4_for([i], [1], [5], [], [,i]))
+          =>
+          m4_set_contents([a])
+          =>12345
+          m4_set_foreach([a], [i],
+            [m4_if(m4_eval(i&1), [0], [m4_set_remove([a], i, [i])])])
+          =>24
+          m4_set_contents([a])
+          =>135
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_list (SET)
+ -- Macro: m4_set_listc (SET)
+     Produce a list of arguments, where each argument is a quoted
+     element from the set SET.  The variant `m4_set_listc' is
+     unambiguous, by adding a leading comma if there are any set
+     elements, whereas the variant `m4_set_list' cannot distinguish
+     between an empty set and a set containing only the empty string.
+     These can be directly used in macros that take multiple arguments,
+     such as `m4_join' or `m4_set_add_all', or wrapped by `m4_dquote'
+     for macros that take a quoted list, such as `m4_map' or
+     `m4_foreach'.  Any memory occupied by removed elements is
+     reclaimed during these macros.
+
+          m4_set_add_all([a], [1], [2], [3])
+          =>
+          m4_set_list([a])
+          =>1,2,3
+          m4_set_list([b])
+          =>
+          m4_set_listc([b])
+          =>
+          m4_count(m4_set_list([b]))

+          =>1
+          m4_set_empty([b], [0], [m4_count(m4_set_list([b]))])
+          =>1
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_map (SET, ACTION)
+     For each element in the set SET, expand ACTION with a single
+     argument of the set element.  Behavior is unspecified if ACTION
+     recursively lists the contents of SET (although listing other sets
+     is acceptable), or if it modifies the set in any way other than
+     removing the element passed as an argument.  This macro is faster
+     than either corresponding counterpart of
+     `m4_map_args([ACTION]m4_set_listc([SET]))' or
+     `m4_set_foreach([SET], [var], [ACTION(m4_defn([var]))])'.  It is
+     possible to use `m4_curry' if more than one argument is needed for
+     ACTION, although it is more efficient to use `m4_set_map_sep' in
+     that case.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_map_sep (SET, [PRE], [POST], [SEP])
+     For each element in the set SET, expand `PRE[element]POST',
+     additionally expanding SEP between elements.  Behavior is
+     unspecified if the expansion recursively lists the contents of SET
+     (although listing other sets is acceptable), or if it modifies the
+     set in any way other than removing the element visited by the
+     expansion.  This macro provides the most efficient means for
+     non-destructively visiting the elements of a set; in particular,
+     `m4_set_map([SET], [ACTION])' is equivalent to
+     `m4_set_map_sep([SET], [ACTION(], [)])'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_remove (SET, VALUE, [IF-PRESENT], [IF-ABSENT])
+     If VALUE is an element in the set SET, then remove it and expand
+     IF-PRESENT.  Otherwise expand IF-ABSENT.  This macro operates in
+     constant time so that multiple removals will scale linearly rather
+     than quadratically; but when used outside of `m4_set_foreach' or
+     `m4_set_map', it leaves memory occupied until the set is later
+     compacted by `m4_set_contents' or `m4_set_list'.  Several other
+     set operations are then less efficient between the time of element
+     removal and subsequent memory compaction, but still maintain their
+     guaranteed scaling performance.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_set_size (SET)
+     Expand to the size of the set SET.  This implementation operates
+     in constant time, and is thus more efficient than
+     `m4_eval(m4_count(m4_set_listc([set])) - 1)'.

+
+8.3.10 Forbidden Patterns
+-------------------------
+
+M4sugar provides a means to define suspicious patterns, patterns
+describing tokens which should not be found in the output.  For
+instance, if an Autoconf `configure' script includes tokens such as
+`AC_DEFINE', or `dnl', then most probably something went wrong
+(typically a macro was not evaluated because of overquotation).
+
+   M4sugar forbids all the tokens matching `^_?m4_' and `^dnl$'.
+Additional layers, such as M4sh and Autoconf, add additional forbidden
+patterns to the list.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_pattern_forbid (PATTERN)
+     Declare that no token matching PATTERN must be found in the output.
+     Comments are not checked; this can be a problem if, for instance,
+     you have some macro left unexpanded after an `#include'.  No
+     consensus is currently found in the Autoconf community, as some
+     people consider it should be valid to name macros in comments
+     (which doesn't make sense to the authors of this documentation:
+     input, such as macros, should be documented by `dnl' comments;
+     reserving `#'-comments to document the output).
+
+   Of course, you might encounter exceptions to these generic rules, for
+instance you might have to refer to `$m4_flags'.
+
+ -- Macro: m4_pattern_allow (PATTERN)
+     Any token matching PATTERN is allowed, including if it matches an
+     `m4_pattern_forbid' pattern.

+
+8.4 Debugging via autom4te
+==========================
+
+At times, it is desirable to see what was happening inside m4, to see
+why output was not matching expectations.  However, post-processing done
+by `autom4te' means that directly using the m4 builtin `m4_traceon' is
+likely to interfere with operation.  Also, frequent diversion changes
+and the concept of forbidden tokens make it difficult to use `m4_defn'
+to generate inline comments in the final output.
+
+   There are a couple of tools to help with this.  One is the use of the
+`--trace' option provided by `autom4te' (as well as each of the
+programs that wrap `autom4te', such as `autoconf'), in order to inspect
+when a macro is called and with which arguments.  For example, when
+this paragraph was written, the autoconf version could be found by:
+
+     $ autoconf --trace=AC_INIT
+     configure.ac:23:AC_INIT:GNU Autoconf:2.63b.95-3963:bug-autoconf@gnu.org
+     $ autoconf --trace='AC_INIT:version is $2'
+     version is 2.63b.95-3963
+
+   Another trick is to print out the expansion of various m4
+expressions to standard error or to an independent file, with no
+further m4 expansion, and without interfering with diversion changes or
+the post-processing done to standard output.  `m4_errprintn' shows a
+given expression on standard error.  For example, if you want to see
+the expansion of an autoconf primitive or of one of your autoconf
+macros, you can do it like this:
+
+     $ cat <<\EOF > configure.ac
+     AC_INIT
+     m4_errprintn([The definition of AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED:])
+     m4_errprintn(m4_defn([AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED]))
+     AC_OUTPUT
+     EOF
+     $ autoconf
+     error-->The definition of AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED:
+     error-->_AC_DEFINE_Q([], $@)

+*********************
+
+M4sh, pronounced "mash", is aiming at producing portable Bourne shell

+according to the Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913):
+
+     Mash \Mash\, n.  [Akin to G. meisch, maisch, meische, maische,
+     mash, wash, and prob. to AS. miscian to mix.  See "Mix".]

+
+   M4sh reserves the M4 macro namespace `^_AS_' for internal use, and
+the namespace `^AS_' for M4sh macros.  It also reserves the shell and
+environment variable namespace `^as_', and the here-document delimiter
+namespace `^_AS[A-Z]' in the output file.  You should not define your
+own macros or output shell code that conflicts with these namespaces.

+
+9.1 Common Shell Constructs
+===========================
+
+M4sh provides portable alternatives for some common shell constructs
+that unfortunately are not portable in practice.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_BOX (TEXT, [CHAR = `-'])
+     Expand into shell code that will output TEXT surrounded by a box
+     with CHAR in the top and bottom border.  TEXT should not contain a
+     newline, but may contain shell expansions valid for unquoted
+     here-documents.  CHAR defaults to `-', but can be any character
+     except `/', `'', `"', `\', `&', or ``'.  This is useful for
+     outputting a comment box into log files to separate distinct
+     phases of script operation.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_CASE (WORD, [PATTERN1], [IF-MATCHED1], ..., [DEFAULT])
+     Expand into a shell `case' statement, where WORD is matched
+     against one or more patterns.  IF-MATCHED is run if the
+     corresponding pattern matched WORD, else DEFAULT is run.  Avoids
+     several portability issues (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins:
+     case.).
+
+ -- Macro: AS_DIRNAME (FILE-NAME)
+     Output the directory portion of FILE-NAME.  For example, if
+     `$file' is `/one/two/three', the command
+     `dir=`AS_DIRNAME(["$file"])`' sets `dir' to `/one/two'.
+
+     This interface may be improved in the future to avoid forks and
+     losing trailing newlines.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_ECHO (WORD)
+     Emits WORD to the standard output, followed by a newline.  WORD
+     must be a single shell word (typically a quoted string).  The
+     bytes of WORD are output as-is, even if it starts with "-" or
+     contains "\".  Redirections can be placed outside the macro
+     invocation.  This is much more portable than using `echo' (*note
+     Limitations of Shell Builtins: echo.).
+
+ -- Macro: AS_ECHO_N (WORD)
+     Emits WORD to the standard output, without a following newline.
+     WORD must be a single shell word (typically a quoted string) and,
+     for portability, should not include more than one newline.  The
+     bytes of WORD are output as-is, even if it starts with "-" or
+     contains "\".  Redirections can be placed outside the macro
+     invocation.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_ESCAPE (STRING, [CHARS = ``\"$'])
+     Expands to STRING, with any characters in CHARS escaped with a
+     backslash (`\').  CHARS should be at most four bytes long, and
+     only contain characters from the set ``\"$'; however, characters
+     may be safely listed more than once in CHARS for the sake of
+     syntax highlighting editors.  The current implementation expands
+     STRING after adding escapes; if STRING contains macro calls that
+     in turn expand to text needing shell quoting, you can use
+     `AS_ESCAPE(m4_dquote(m4_expand([string])))'.
+
+     The default for CHARS (`\"$`') is the set of characters needing
+     escapes when STRING will be used literally within double quotes.
+     One common variant is the set of characters to protect when STRING
+     will be used literally within back-ticks or an unquoted
+     here-document (`\$`').  Another common variant is `""', which can
+     be used to form a double-quoted string containing the same
+     expansions that would have occurred if STRING were expanded in an
+     unquoted here-document; however, when using this variant, care
+     must be taken that STRING does not use double quotes within
+     complex variable expansions (such as `${foo-`echo "hi"`}') that
+     would be broken with improper escapes.
+
+     This macro is often used with `AS_ECHO'.  For an example, observe
+     the output generated by the shell code generated from this snippet:
+
+          foo=bar
+          AS_ECHO(["AS_ESCAPE(["$foo" = ])AS_ESCAPE(["$foo"], [""])"])
+          =>"$foo" = "bar"
+          m4_define([macro], [a, [\b]])
+          AS_ECHO(["AS_ESCAPE([[macro]])"])
+          =>macro
+          AS_ECHO(["AS_ESCAPE([macro])"])
+          =>a, b
+          AS_ECHO(["AS_ESCAPE(m4_dquote(m4_expand([macro])))"])
+          =>a, \b
+
+     To escape a string that will be placed within single quotes, use:
+
+          m4_bpatsubst([[STRING]], ['], ['\\''])
+
+ -- Macro: AS_EXECUTABLE_P (FILE)
+     Emit code to probe whether FILE is a regular file with executable
+     permissions (and not a directory with search permissions).  The
+     caller is responsible for quoting FILE.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_EXIT ([STATUS = `$?'])
+     Emit code to exit the shell with STATUS, defaulting to `$?'.  This
+     macro works around shells that see the exit status of the command
+     prior to `exit' inside a `trap 0' handler (*note Limitations of
+     Shell Builtins: trap.).
+
+ -- Macro: AS_IF (TEST1, [RUN-IF-TRUE1], ..., [RUN-IF-FALSE])
+     Run shell code TEST1.  If TEST1 exits with a zero status then run
+     shell code RUN-IF-TRUE1, else examine further tests.  If no test
+     exits with a zero status, run shell code RUN-IF-FALSE, with
+     simplifications if either RUN-IF-TRUE1 or RUN-IF-FALSE is empty.
+     For example,
+
+          AS_IF([test "x$foo" = xyes], [HANDLE_FOO([yes])],
+                [test "x$foo" != xno], [HANDLE_FOO([maybe])],
+                [echo foo not specified])
+
+     ensures any required macros of `HANDLE_FOO' are expanded before
+     the first test.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_MKDIR_P (FILE-NAME)
+     Make the directory FILE-NAME, including intervening directories as
+     necessary.  This is equivalent to `mkdir -p -- FILE-NAME', except
+     that it is portable to older versions of `mkdir' that lack support
+     for the `-p' option or for the `--' delimiter (*note Limitations
+     of Usual Tools: mkdir.).  Also, `AS_MKDIR_P' succeeds if FILE-NAME
+     is a symbolic link to an existing directory, even though Posix is
+     unclear whether `mkdir -p' should succeed in that case.  If
+     creation of FILE-NAME fails, exit the script.
+
+     Also see the `AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro (*note Particular Programs::).
+
+ -- Macro: AS_SET_STATUS (STATUS)
+     Emit shell code to set the value of `$?' to STATUS, as efficiently
+     as possible.  However, this is not guaranteed to abort a shell
+     running with `set -e' (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins: set.).
+     This should also be used at the end of a complex shell function
+     instead of `return' (*note Shell Functions::) to avoid a DJGPP
+     shell bug.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_TR_CPP (EXPRESSION)
+     Transform EXPRESSION into a valid right-hand side for a C
+     `#define'.  For example:
+
+          # This outputs "#define HAVE_CHAR_P 1".
+          # Notice the m4 quoting around #, to prevent an m4 comment
+          type="char *"
+          echo "[#]define AS_TR_CPP([HAVE_$type]) 1"
+
+ -- Macro: AS_TR_SH (EXPRESSION)
+     Transform EXPRESSION into shell code that generates a valid shell
+     variable name.  The result is literal when possible at m4 time,
+     but must be used with `eval' if EXPRESSION causes shell
+     indirections.  For example:
+
+          # This outputs "Have it!".
+          header="sys/some file.h"
+          eval AS_TR_SH([HAVE_$header])=yes
+          if test "x$HAVE_sys_some_file_h" = xyes; then echo "Have it!"; fi
+
+ -- Macro: AS_SET_CATFILE (VAR, DIR, FILE)
+     Set the polymorphic shell variable VAR to DIR/FILE, but optimizing
+     the common cases (DIR or FILE is `.', FILE is absolute, etc.).
+
+ -- Macro: AS_UNSET (VAR)
+     Unsets the shell variable VAR, working around bugs in older shells
+     (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins: unset.).  VAR can be a
+     literal or indirect variable name.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VERSION_COMPARE (VERSION-1, VERSION-2, [ACTION-IF-LESS],
+          [ACTION-IF-EQUAL], [ACTION-IF-GREATER])
+     Compare two strings VERSION-1 and VERSION-2, possibly containing
+     shell variables, as version strings, and expand ACTION-IF-LESS,
+     ACTION-IF-EQUAL, or ACTION-IF-GREATER depending upon the result.
+     The algorithm to compare is similar to the one used by strverscmp
+     in glibc (*note String/Array Comparison: (libc)String/Array
+     Comparison.).

+9.2 Support for indirect variable names
+=======================================
+
+Often, it is convenient to write a macro that will emit shell code
+operating on a shell variable.  The simplest case is when the variable
+name is known.  But a more powerful idiom is writing shell code that can
+work through an indirection, where another variable or command
+substitution produces the name of the variable to actually manipulate.
+M4sh supports the notion of polymorphic shell variables, making it easy
+to write a macro that can deal with either literal or indirect variable
+names and output shell code appropriate for both use cases.  Behavior is
+undefined if expansion of an indirect variable does not result in a
+literal variable name.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_LITERAL_IF (EXPRESSION, [IF-LITERAL], [IF-NOT],
+          [IF-SIMPLE-REF = `IF-NOT'])
+ -- Macro: AS_LITERAL_WORD_IF (EXPRESSION, [IF-LITERAL], [IF-NOT],
+          [IF-SIMPLE-REF = `IF-NOT'])
+     If the expansion of EXPRESSION is definitely a shell literal,
+     expand IF-LITERAL.  If the expansion of EXPRESSION looks like it
+     might contain shell indirections (such as `$var' or ``expr`'),
+     then IF-NOT is expanded.  Sometimes, it is possible to output
+     optimized code if EXPRESSION consists only of shell variable
+     expansions (such as `${var}'), in which case IF-SIMPLE-REF can be
+     provided; but defaulting to IF-NOT should always be safe.
+     `AS_LITERAL_WORD_IF' only expands IF-LITERAL if EXPRESSION looks
+     like a single shell word, containing no whitespace; while
+     `AS_LITERAL_IF' allows whitespace in EXPRESSION.
+
+     In order to reduce the time spent recognizing whether an
+     EXPRESSION qualifies as a literal or a simple indirection, the
+     implementation is somewhat conservative: EXPRESSION must be a
+     single shell word (possibly after stripping whitespace),
+     consisting only of bytes that would have the same meaning whether
+     unquoted or enclosed in double quotes (for example, `a.b' results
+     in IF-LITERAL, even though it is not a valid shell variable name;
+     while both `'a'' and `[$]' result in IF-NOT, because they behave
+     differently than `"'a'"' and `"[$]"').  This macro can be used in
+     contexts for recognizing portable file names (such as in the
+     implementation of `AC_LIBSOURCE'), or coupled with some
+     transliterations for forming valid variable names (such as in the
+     implementation of `AS_TR_SH', which uses an additional
+     `m4_translit' to convert `.' to `_').
+
+     This example shows how to read the contents of the shell variable
+     `bar', exercising all three arguments to `AS_LITERAL_IF'.  It
+     results in a script that will output the line `hello' three times.
+
+          AC_DEFUN([MY_ACTION],
+          [AS_LITERAL_IF([$1],
+            [echo "$$1"],
+            [AS_VAR_COPY([var], [$1])
+             echo "$var"],
+            [eval 'echo "$'"$1"\"])])
+          foo=bar bar=hello
+          MY_ACTION([bar])
+          MY_ACTION([`echo bar`])
+          MY_ACTION([$foo])
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_APPEND (VAR, TEXT)
+     Emit shell code to append the shell expansion of TEXT to the end
+     of the current contents of the polymorphic shell variable VAR,
+     taking advantage of shells that provide the `+=' extension for more
+     efficient scaling.
+
+     For situations where the final contents of VAR are relatively
+     short (less than 256 bytes), it is more efficient to use the
+     simpler code sequence of `VAR=${VAR}TEXT' (or its polymorphic
+     equivalent of `AS_VAR_COPY([t], [VAR])' and `AS_VAR_SET([VAR],
+     ["$t"TEXT])').  But in the case when the script will be repeatedly
+     appending text into `var', issues of scaling start to become
+     apparent.  A naive implementation requires execution time linear
+     to the length of the current contents of VAR as well as the length
+     of TEXT for a single append, for an overall quadratic scaling with
+     multiple appends.  This macro takes advantage of shells which
+     provide the extension `VAR+=TEXT', which can provide amortized
+     constant time for a single append, for an overall linear scaling
+     with multiple appends.  Note that unlike `AS_VAR_SET', this macro
+     requires that TEXT be quoted properly to avoid field splitting and
+     file name expansion.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_ARITH (VAR, EXPRESSION)
+     Emit shell code to compute the arithmetic expansion of EXPRESSION,
+     assigning the result as the contents of the polymorphic shell
+     variable VAR.  The code takes advantage of shells that provide
+     `$(())' for fewer forks, but uses `expr' as a fallback.
+     Therefore, the syntax for a valid EXPRESSION is rather limited:
+     all operators must occur as separate shell arguments and with
+     proper quoting, there is no portable equality operator, all
+     variables containing numeric values must be expanded prior to the
+     computation, all numeric values must be provided in decimal
+     without leading zeroes, and the first shell argument should not be
+     a negative number.  In the following example, this snippet will
+     print `(2+3)*4 == 20'.
+
+          bar=3
+          AS_VAR_ARITH([foo], [\( 2 + $bar \) \* 4])
+          echo "(2+$bar)*4 == $foo"
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_COPY (DEST, SOURCE)
+     Emit shell code to assign the contents of the polymorphic shell
+     variable SOURCE to the polymorphic shell variable DEST.  For
+     example, executing this M4sh snippet will output `bar hi':
+
+          foo=bar bar=hi
+          AS_VAR_COPY([a], [foo])
+          AS_VAR_COPY([b], [$foo])
+          echo "$a $b"
+
+     When it is necessary to access the contents of an indirect variable
+     inside a shell double-quoted context, the recommended idiom is to
+     first copy the contents into a temporary literal shell variable.
+
+          for header in stdint_h inttypes_h ; do
+            AS_VAR_COPY([var], [ac_cv_header_$header])
+            echo "$header detected: $var"
+          done
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_IF (VAR, [WORD], [IF-EQUAL], [IF-NOT-EQUAL])
+     Output a shell conditional statement.  If the contents of the
+     polymorphic shell variable VAR match the string WORD, execute
+     IF-EQUAL; otherwise execute IF-NOT-EQUAL.  WORD must be a single
+     shell word (typically a quoted string).  Avoids shell bugs if an
+     interrupt signal arrives while a command substitution in VAR is
+     being expanded.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_PUSHDEF (M4-NAME, VALUE)
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_POPDEF (M4-NAME)
+     A common M4sh idiom involves composing shell variable names from
+     an m4 argument (for example, writing a macro that uses a cache
+     variable).  VALUE can be an arbitrary string, which will be
+     transliterated into a valid shell name by `AS_TR_SH'.  In order to
+     access the composed variable name based on VALUE, it is easier to
+     declare a temporary m4 macro M4-NAME with `AS_VAR_PUSHDEF', then
+     use that macro as the argument to subsequent `AS_VAR' macros as a
+     polymorphic variable name, and finally free the temporary macro
+     with `AS_VAR_POPDEF'.  These macros are often followed with `dnl',
+     to avoid excess newlines in the output.
+
+     Here is an involved example, that shows the power of writing
+     macros that can handle composed shell variable names:
+
+          m4_define([MY_CHECK_HEADER],
+          [AS_VAR_PUSHDEF([my_Header], [ac_cv_header_$1])dnl
+          AS_VAR_IF([my_Header], [yes], [echo "header $1 detected"])dnl
+          AS_VAR_POPDEF([my_Header])dnl
+          ])
+          MY_CHECK_HEADER([stdint.h])
+          for header in inttypes.h stdlib.h ; do
+            MY_CHECK_HEADER([$header])
+          done
+
+     In the above example, `MY_CHECK_HEADER' can operate on polymorphic
+     variable names.  In the first invocation, the m4 argument is
+     `stdint.h', which transliterates into a literal `stdint_h'.  As a
+     result, the temporary macro `my_Header' expands to the literal
+     shell name `ac_cv_header_stdint_h'.  In the second invocation, the
+     m4 argument to `MY_CHECK_HEADER' is `$header', and the temporary
+     macro `my_Header' expands to the indirect shell name
+     `$as_my_Header'.  During the shell execution of the for loop, when
+     `$header' contains `inttypes.h', then `$as_my_Header' contains
+     `ac_cv_header_inttypes_h'.  If this script is then run on a
+     platform where all three headers have been previously detected, the
+     output of the script will include:
+
+          header stdint.h detected
+          header inttypes.h detected
+          header stdlib.h detected
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_SET (VAR, [VALUE])
+     Emit shell code to assign the contents of the polymorphic shell
+     variable VAR to the shell expansion of VALUE.  VALUE is not
+     subject to field splitting or file name expansion, so if command
+     substitution is used, it may be done with ``""`' rather than using
+     an intermediate variable (*note Shell Substitutions::).  However,
+     VALUE does undergo rescanning for additional macro names; behavior
+     is unspecified if late expansion results in any shell
+     meta-characters.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_SET_IF (VAR, [IF-SET], [IF-UNDEF])
+     Emit a shell conditional statement, which executes IF-SET if the
+     polymorphic shell variable `var' is set to any value, and IF-UNDEF
+     otherwise.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_VAR_TEST_SET (VAR)
+     Emit a shell statement that results in a successful exit status
+     only if the polymorphic shell variable `var' is set.

+
+9.3 Initialization Macros
+=========================
+
+ -- Macro: AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE
+     Set up the shell to be more compatible with the Bourne shell as
+     standardized by Posix, if possible.  This may involve setting
+     environment variables, or setting options, or similar
+     implementation-specific actions.  This macro is deprecated, since
+     `AS_INIT' already invokes it.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_INIT
+     Initialize the M4sh environment.  This macro calls `m4_init', then
+     outputs the `#! /bin/sh' line, a notice about where the output was
+     generated from, and code to sanitize the environment for the rest
+     of the script.  Among other initializations, this sets `SHELL' to
+     the shell chosen to run the script (*note CONFIG_SHELL::), and
+     `LC_ALL' to ensure the C locale.  Finally, it changes the current
+     diversion to `BODY'.  `AS_INIT' is called automatically by
+     `AC_INIT' and `AT_INIT', so shell code in `configure',
+     `config.status', and `testsuite' all benefit from a sanitized
+     shell environment.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_INIT_GENERATED (FILE, [COMMENT])
+     Emit shell code to start the creation of a subsidiary shell script
+     in FILE, including changing FILE to be executable.  This macro
+     populates the child script with information learned from the parent
+     (thus, the emitted code is equivalent in effect, but more
+     efficient, than the code output by `AS_INIT',
+     `AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE', and `AS_SHELL_SANITIZE').  If present,
+     COMMENT is output near the beginning of the child, prior to the
+     shell initialization code, and is subject to parameter expansion,
+     command substitution, and backslash quote removal.  The parent
+     script should check the exit status after this macro, in case FILE
+     could not be properly created (for example, if the disk was full).
+     If successfully created, the parent script can then proceed to
+     append additional M4sh constructs into the child script.
+
+     Note that the child script starts life without a log file open, so
+     if the parent script uses logging (*note AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD::), you
+     must temporarily disable any attempts to use the log file until
+     after emitting code to open a log within the child.  On the other
+     hand, if the parent script has `AS_MESSAGE_FD' redirected
+     somewhere besides `1', then the child script already has code that
+     copies stdout to that descriptor.  Currently, the suggested idiom
+     for writing a M4sh shell script from within another script is:
+
+          AS_INIT_GENERATED([FILE], [[# My child script.
+          ]]) || { AS_ECHO(["Failed to create child script"]); AS_EXIT; }
+          m4_pushdef([AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD])dnl
+          cat >> "FILE" <<\__EOF__
+          # Code to initialize AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
+          m4_popdef([AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD])dnl
+          # Additional code
+          __EOF__
+
+     This, however, may change in the future as the M4sh interface is
+     stabilized further.
+
+     Also, be aware that use of `LINENO' within the child script may
+     report line numbers relative to their location in the parent
+     script, even when using `AS_LINENO_PREPARE', if the parent script
+     was unable to locate a shell with working `LINENO' support.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_LINENO_PREPARE
+     Find a shell that supports the special variable `LINENO', which
+     contains the number of the currently executing line.  This macro is
+     automatically invoked by `AC_INIT' in configure scripts.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_ME_PREPARE
+     Set up variable `as_me' to be the basename of the currently
+     executing script.  This macro is automatically invoked by
+     `AC_INIT' in configure scripts.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_TMPDIR (PREFIX, [DIR = `${TMPDIR:=/tmp}'])
+     Create, as safely as possible, a temporary sub-directory within
+     DIR with a name starting with PREFIX.  PREFIX should be 2-4
+     characters, to make it slightly easier to identify the owner of
+     the directory.  If DIR is omitted, then the value of `TMPDIR' will
+     be used (defaulting to `/tmp').  On success, the name of the newly
+     created directory is stored in the shell variable `tmp'.  On
+     error, the script is aborted.
+
+     Typically, this macro is coupled with some exit traps to delete
+     the created directory and its contents on exit or interrupt.
+     However, there is a slight window between when the directory is
+     created and when the name is actually known to the shell, so an
+     interrupt at the right moment might leave the temporary directory
+     behind.  Hence it is important to use a PREFIX that makes it
+     easier to determine if a leftover temporary directory from an
+     interrupted script is safe to delete.
+
+     The use of the output variable `$tmp' rather than something in the
+     `as_' namespace is historical; it has the unfortunate consequence
+     that reusing this otherwise common name for any other purpose
+     inside your script has the potential to break any cleanup traps
+     designed to remove the temporary directory.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_SHELL_SANITIZE
+     Initialize the shell suitably for `configure' scripts.  This has
+     the effect of `AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE', and sets some other
+     environment variables for predictable results from configuration
+     tests.  For example, it sets `LC_ALL' to change to the default C
+     locale.  *Note Special Shell Variables::.  This macro is
+     deprecated, since `AS_INIT' already invokes it.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: File Descriptor Macros,  Prev: Initialization Macros,  Up: Programming in M4sh
+
+9.4 File Descriptor Macros
+==========================
+
+The following macros define file descriptors used to output messages
+(or input values) from `configure' scripts.  For example:
+
+     echo "$wombats found" >&AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
+     echo 'Enter desired kangaroo count:' >&AS_MESSAGE_FD
+     read kangaroos <&AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD`
+
+However doing so is seldom needed, because Autoconf provides higher
+level macros as described below.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_MESSAGE_FD
+     The file descriptor for `checking for...'  messages and results.
+     By default, `AS_INIT' sets this to `1' for standalone M4sh
+     clients.  However, `AC_INIT' shuffles things around to another file
+     descriptor, in order to allow the `-q' option of `configure' to
+     choose whether messages should go to the script's standard output
+     or be discarded.
+
+     If you want to display some messages, consider using one of the
+     printing macros (*note Printing Messages::) instead.  Copies of
+     messages output via these macros are also recorded in `config.log'.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
+     This must either be empty, or expand to a file descriptor for log
+     messages.  By default, `AS_INIT' sets this macro to the empty
+     string for standalone M4sh clients, thus disabling logging.
+     However, `AC_INIT' shuffles things around so that both `configure'
+     and `config.status' use `config.log' for log messages.  Macros
+     that run tools, like `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' (*note Running the
+     Compiler::), redirect all output to this descriptor.  You may want
+     to do so if you develop such a low-level macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD
+     This must expand to a file descriptor for the original standard
+     input.  By default, `AS_INIT' sets this macro to `0' for standalone
+     M4sh clients.  However, `AC_INIT' shuffles things around for
+     safety.
+
+     When `configure' runs, it may accidentally execute an interactive
+     command that has the same name as the non-interactive meant to be
+     used or checked.  If the standard input was the terminal, such
+     interactive programs would cause `configure' to stop, pending some
+     user input.  Therefore `configure' redirects its standard input
+     from `/dev/null' during its initialization.  This is not normally
+     a problem, since `configure' normally does not need user input.
+
+     In the extreme case where your `configure' script really needs to
+     obtain some values from the original standard input, you can read
+     them explicitly from `AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD'.

+
+10.1 Macro Definitions
+======================
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFUN (NAME, [BODY])
+     Autoconf macros are defined using the `AC_DEFUN' macro, which is
+     similar to the M4 builtin `m4_define' macro; this creates a macro
+     named NAME and with BODY as its expansion.  In addition to
+     defining a macro, `AC_DEFUN' adds to it some code that is used to
+     constrain the order in which macros are called, while avoiding
+     redundant output (*note Prerequisite Macros::).
+
+   An Autoconf macro definition looks like this:
+
+     AC_DEFUN(MACRO-NAME, MACRO-BODY)
+
+   You can refer to any arguments passed to the macro as `$1', `$2',
+etc.  *Note How to define new macros: (m4.info)Definitions, for more
+complete information on writing M4 macros.
+
+   Most macros fall in one of two general categories.  The first
+category includes macros which take arguments, in order to generate
+output parameterized by those arguments.  Macros in this category are
+designed to be directly expanded, often multiple times, and should not
+be used as the argument to `AC_REQUIRE'.  The other category includes
+macros which are shorthand for a fixed block of text, and therefore do
+not take arguments.  For this category of macros, directly expanding
+the macro multiple times results in redundant output, so it is more
+common to use the macro as the argument to `AC_REQUIRE', or to declare
+the macro with `AC_DEFUN_ONCE' (*note One-Shot Macros::).
+
+   Be sure to properly quote both the MACRO-BODY _and_ the MACRO-NAME
+to avoid any problems if the macro happens to have been previously
+defined.
+
+   Each macro should have a header comment that gives its prototype,
+and a brief description.  When arguments have default values, display
+them in the prototype.  For example:
+
+     # AC_MSG_ERROR(ERROR, [EXIT-STATUS = 1])
+     # --------------------------------------
+     m4_define([AC_MSG_ERROR],
+       [{ AS_MESSAGE([error: $1], [2])
+          exit m4_default([$2], [1]); }])
+
+   Comments about the macro should be left in the header comment.  Most
+other comments make their way into `configure', so just keep using `#'
+to introduce comments.
+
+   If you have some special comments about pure M4 code, comments that
+make no sense in `configure' and in the header comment, then use the
+builtin `dnl': it causes M4 to discard the text through the next
+newline.
+
+   Keep in mind that `dnl' is rarely needed to introduce comments;
+`dnl' is more useful to get rid of the newlines following macros that
+produce no output, such as `AC_REQUIRE'.
+
+   Public third-party macros need to use `AC_DEFUN', and not
+`m4_define', in order to be found by `aclocal' (*note Extending
+aclocal: (automake)Extending aclocal.).  Additionally, if it is ever
+determined that a macro should be made obsolete, it is easy to convert
+from `AC_DEFUN' to `AU_DEFUN' in order to have `autoupdate' assist the
+user in choosing a better alternative, but there is no corresponding
+way to make `m4_define' issue an upgrade notice (*note AU_DEFUN::).
+
+   There is another subtle, but important, difference between using
+`m4_define' and `AC_DEFUN': only the former is unaffected by
+`AC_REQUIRE'.  When writing a file, it is always safe to replace a
+block of text with a `m4_define' macro that will expand to the same
+text.  But replacing a block of text with an `AC_DEFUN' macro with the
+same content does not necessarily give the same results, because it
+changes the location where any embedded but unsatisfied `AC_REQUIRE'
+invocations within the block will be expanded.  For an example of this,
+see *note Expanded Before Required::.

+
+10.2 Macro Names
+================
+
+All of the public Autoconf macros have all-uppercase names in the
+namespace `^AC_' to prevent them from accidentally conflicting with
+other text; Autoconf also reserves the namespace `^_AC_' for internal
+macros.  All shell variables that they use for internal purposes have
+mostly-lowercase names starting with `ac_'.  Autoconf also uses
+here-document delimiters in the namespace `^_AC[A-Z]'.  During
+`configure', files produced by Autoconf make heavy use of the file
+system namespace `^conf'.
+
+   Since Autoconf is built on top of M4sugar (*note Programming in
+M4sugar::) and M4sh (*note Programming in M4sh::), you must also be
+aware of those namespaces (`^_?\(m4\|AS\)_').  And since `configure.ac'
+is also designed to be scanned by Autoheader, Autoscan, Autoupdate, and
+Automake, you should be aware of the `^_?A[HNUM]_' namespaces.  In
+general, you _should not use_ the namespace of a package that does not
+own the macro or shell code you are writing.
+
+   To ensure that your macros don't conflict with present or future
+Autoconf macros, you should prefix your own macro names and any shell
+variables they use with some other sequence.  Possibilities include your
+initials, or an abbreviation for the name of your organization or
+software package.  Historically, people have not always followed the
+rule of using a namespace appropriate for their package, and this has
+made it difficult for determining the origin of a macro (and where to
+report bugs about that macro), as well as difficult for the true
+namespace owner to add new macros without interference from pre-existing
+uses of third-party macros.  Perhaps the best example of this confusion
+is the `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' macro, which belongs, not to Automake, but to
+Gettext.
+
+   Most of the Autoconf macros' names follow a structured naming
+convention that indicates the kind of feature check by the name.  The
+macro names consist of several words, separated by underscores, going
+from most general to most specific.  The names of their cache variables
+use the same convention (*note Cache Variable Names::, for more
+information on them).
+
+   The first word of the name after the namespace initials (such as
+`AC_') usually tells the category of the feature being tested.  Here
+are the categories used in Autoconf for specific test macros, the kind
+of macro that you are more likely to write.  They are also used for
+cache variables, in all-lowercase.  Use them where applicable; where
+they're not, invent your own categories.
+
+`C'
+     C language builtin features.
+
+`DECL'
+     Declarations of C variables in header files.
+
+`FUNC'
+     Functions in libraries.
+
+`GROUP'
+     Posix group owners of files.
+
+`HEADER'
+     Header files.
+
+`LIB'
+     C libraries.
+
+`PROG'
+     The base names of programs.
+
+`MEMBER'
+     Members of aggregates.
+
+`SYS'
+     Operating system features.
+
+`TYPE'
+     C builtin or declared types.
+
+`VAR'
+     C variables in libraries.
+
+   After the category comes the name of the particular feature being
+tested.  Any further words in the macro name indicate particular aspects
+of the feature.  For example, `AC_PROG_CC_STDC' checks whether the C
+compiler supports ISO Standard C.
+
+   An internal macro should have a name that starts with an underscore;
+Autoconf internals should therefore start with `_AC_'.  Additionally, a
+macro that is an internal subroutine of another macro should have a
+name that starts with an underscore and the name of that other macro,
+followed by one or more words saying what the internal macro does.  For
+example, `AC_PATH_X' has internal macros `_AC_PATH_X_XMKMF' and
+`_AC_PATH_X_DIRECT'.

+
+10.3 Reporting Messages
+=======================
+
+When macros statically diagnose abnormal situations, benign or fatal, it
+is possible to make `autoconf' detect the problem, and refuse to create
+`configure' in the case of an error.  The macros in this section are
+considered obsolescent, and new code should use M4sugar macros for this
+purpose, see *note Diagnostic Macros::.
+
+   On the other hand, it is possible to want to detect errors when
+`configure' is run, which are dependent on the environment of the user
+rather than the maintainer.  For dynamic diagnostics, see *note
+Printing Messages::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DIAGNOSE (CATEGORY, MESSAGE)
+     Report MESSAGE as a warning (or as an error if requested by the
+     user) if warnings of the CATEGORY are turned on.  This macro is
+     obsolescent; you are encouraged to use:
+          m4_warn([CATEGORY], [MESSAGE])
+     instead.  *Note m4_warn::, for more details, including valid
+     CATEGORY names.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_WARNING (MESSAGE)
+     Report MESSAGE as a syntax warning.  This macro is obsolescent;
+     you are encouraged to use:
+          m4_warn([syntax], [MESSAGE])
+     instead.  *Note m4_warn::, for more details, as well as better
+     finer-grained categories of warnings (not all problems have to do
+     with syntax).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FATAL (MESSAGE)
+     Report a severe error MESSAGE, and have `autoconf' die.  This
+     macro is obsolescent; you are encouraged to use:
+          m4_fatal([MESSAGE])
+     instead.  *Note m4_fatal::, for more details.
+
+   When the user runs `autoconf -W error', warnings from `m4_warn'
+(including those issued through `AC_DIAGNOSE' and `AC_WARNING') are
+reported as errors, see *note autoconf Invocation::.

+
+10.4 Dependencies Between Macros
+================================
+
+Some Autoconf macros depend on other macros having been called first in
+order to work correctly.  Autoconf provides a way to ensure that certain
+macros are called if needed and a way to warn the user if macros are
+called in an order that might cause incorrect operation.

+
+* Prerequisite Macros::         Ensuring required information
+* Suggested Ordering::          Warning about possible ordering problems
+* One-Shot Macros::             Ensuring a macro is called only once
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Prerequisite Macros,  Next: Suggested Ordering,  Up: Dependencies Between Macros
+
+10.4.1 Prerequisite Macros
+--------------------------
+
+A macro that you write might need to use values that have previously
+been computed by other macros.  For example, `AC_DECL_YYTEXT' examines
+the output of `flex' or `lex', so it depends on `AC_PROG_LEX' having
+been called first to set the shell variable `LEX'.
+
+   Rather than forcing the user of the macros to keep track of the
+dependencies between them, you can use the `AC_REQUIRE' macro to do it
+automatically.  `AC_REQUIRE' can ensure that a macro is only called if
+it is needed, and only called once.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REQUIRE (MACRO-NAME)
+     If the M4 macro MACRO-NAME has not already been called, call it
+     (without any arguments).  Make sure to quote MACRO-NAME with
+     square brackets.  MACRO-NAME must have been defined using
+     `AC_DEFUN' or else contain a call to `AC_PROVIDE' to indicate that
+     it has been called.
+
+     `AC_REQUIRE' must be used inside a macro defined by `AC_DEFUN'; it
+     must not be called from the top level.  Also, it does not make
+     sense to require a macro that takes parameters.
+
+   `AC_REQUIRE' is often misunderstood.  It really implements
+dependencies between macros in the sense that if one macro depends upon
+another, the latter is expanded _before_ the body of the former.  To be
+more precise, the required macro is expanded before the outermost
+defined macro in the current expansion stack.  In particular,
+`AC_REQUIRE([FOO])' is not replaced with the body of `FOO'.  For
+instance, this definition of macros:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([TRAVOLTA],
+     [test "$body_temperature_in_celsius" -gt "38" &&
+       dance_floor=occupied])
+     AC_DEFUN([NEWTON_JOHN],
+     [test "x$hair_style" = xcurly &&
+       dance_floor=occupied])
+
+     AC_DEFUN([RESERVE_DANCE_FLOOR],
+     [if date | grep '^Sat.*pm' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+       AC_REQUIRE([TRAVOLTA])
+       AC_REQUIRE([NEWTON_JOHN])
+     fi])
+
+with this `configure.ac'
+
+     AC_INIT([Dance Manager], [1.0], [bug-dance@example.org])
+     RESERVE_DANCE_FLOOR
+     if test "x$dance_floor" = xoccupied; then
+       AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot pick up here, let's move])
+     fi
+
+does not leave you with a better chance to meet a kindred soul at other
+times than Saturday night since it expands into:
+
+     test "$body_temperature_in_Celsius" -gt "38" &&
+       dance_floor=occupied
+     test "x$hair_style" = xcurly &&
+       dance_floor=occupied
+     fi
+     if date | grep '^Sat.*pm' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+
+
+     fi
+
+   This behavior was chosen on purpose: (i) it prevents messages in
+required macros from interrupting the messages in the requiring macros;
+(ii) it avoids bad surprises when shell conditionals are used, as in:
+
+     if ...; then
+       AC_REQUIRE([SOME_CHECK])
+     fi
+     ...
+     SOME_CHECK
+
+   However, this implementation can lead to another class of problems.
+Consider the case where an outer macro first expands, then indirectly
+requires, an inner macro:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [[echo in A
+     if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+     SEEN_A=:]])
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA])[echo in B
+     if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+     AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+     TESTA
+     TESTC])
+     OUTER
+
+Prior to Autoconf 2.64, the implementation of `AC_REQUIRE' recognized
+that `TESTB' needed to be hoisted prior to the expansion of `OUTER',
+but because `TESTA' had already been directly expanded, it failed to
+hoist `TESTA'.  Therefore, the expansion of `TESTB' occurs prior to its
+prerequisites, leading to the following output:
+
+     in B
+     bug
+     in OUTER
+     in A
+     in C
+
+Newer Autoconf is smart enough to recognize this situation, and hoists
+`TESTA' even though it has already been expanded, but issues a syntax
+warning in the process.  This is because the hoisted expansion of
+`TESTA' defeats the purpose of using `AC_REQUIRE' to avoid redundant
+code, and causes its own set of problems if the hoisted macro is not
+idempotent:
+
+     in A
+     in B
+     in OUTER
+     in A
+     duplicate
+     in C
+
+   The bug is not in Autoconf, but in the macro definitions.  If you
+ever pass a particular macro name to `AC_REQUIRE', then you are implying
+that the macro only needs to be expanded once.  But to enforce this,
+either the macro must be declared with `AC_DEFUN_ONCE' (although this
+only helps in Autoconf 2.64 or newer), or all uses of that macro should
+be through `AC_REQUIRE'; directly expanding the macro defeats the point
+of using `AC_REQUIRE' to eliminate redundant expansion.  In the
+example, this rule of thumb was violated because `TESTB' requires
+`TESTA' while `OUTER' directly expands it.  One way of fixing the bug
+is to factor `TESTA' into two macros, the portion designed for direct
+and repeated use (here, named `TESTA'), and the portion designed for
+one-shot output and used only inside `AC_REQUIRE' (here, named
+`TESTA_PREREQ').  Then, by fixing all clients to use the correct
+calling convention according to their needs:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA_PREREQ])[echo in A]])
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTA_PREREQ], [[echo in A_PREREQ
+     if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+     SEEN_A=:]])
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA_PREREQ])[echo in B
+     if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+     AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+     AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+     TESTA
+     TESTC])
+     OUTER
+
+the resulting output will then obey all dependency rules and avoid any
+syntax warnings, whether the script is built with old or new Autoconf
+versions:
+
+     in A_PREREQ
+     in B
+     in OUTER
+     in A
+     in C
+
+   The helper macros `AS_IF' and `AS_CASE' may be used to enforce
+expansion of required macros outside of shell conditional constructs.
+You are furthermore encouraged, although not required, to put all
+`AC_REQUIRE' calls at the beginning of a macro.  You can use `dnl' to
+avoid the empty lines they leave.
+
+

+
+10.4.2 Suggested Ordering
+-------------------------
+
+Some macros should be run before another macro if both are called, but
+neither _requires_ that the other be called.  For example, a macro that
+changes the behavior of the C compiler should be called before any
+macros that run the C compiler.  Many of these dependencies are noted in
+the documentation.
+
+   Autoconf provides the `AC_BEFORE' macro to warn users when macros
+with this kind of dependency appear out of order in a `configure.ac'
+file.  The warning occurs when creating `configure' from
+`configure.ac', not when running `configure'.
+
+   For example, `AC_PROG_CPP' checks whether the C compiler can run the
+C preprocessor when given the `-E' option.  It should therefore be
+called after any macros that change which C compiler is being used,
+such as `AC_PROG_CC'.  So `AC_PROG_CC' contains:
+
+     AC_BEFORE([$0], [AC_PROG_CPP])dnl
+
+This warns the user if a call to `AC_PROG_CPP' has already occurred
+when `AC_PROG_CC' is called.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_BEFORE (THIS-MACRO-NAME, CALLED-MACRO-NAME)
+     Make M4 print a warning message to the standard error output if
+     CALLED-MACRO-NAME has already been called.  THIS-MACRO-NAME should
+     be the name of the macro that is calling `AC_BEFORE'.  The macro
+     CALLED-MACRO-NAME must have been defined using `AC_DEFUN' or else
+     contain a call to `AC_PROVIDE' to indicate that it has been called.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: One-Shot Macros,  Prev: Suggested Ordering,  Up: Dependencies Between Macros
+
+10.4.3 One-Shot Macros
+----------------------
+
+Some macros should be called only once, either because calling them
+multiple time is unsafe, or because it is bad style.  For instance
+Autoconf ensures that `AC_CANONICAL_BUILD' and cousins (*note
+Canonicalizing::) are evaluated only once, because it makes no sense to
+run these expensive checks more than once.  Such one-shot macros can be
+defined using `AC_DEFUN_ONCE'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DEFUN_ONCE (MACRO-NAME, MACRO-BODY)
+     Declare macro MACRO-NAME like `AC_DEFUN' would (*note Macro
+     Definitions::), but add additional logic that guarantees that only
+     the first use of the macro (whether by direct expansion or
+     `AC_REQUIRE') causes an expansion of MACRO-BODY; the expansion
+     will occur before the start of any enclosing macro defined by
+     `AC_DEFUN'.  Subsequent expansions are silently ignored.
+     Generally, it does not make sense for MACRO-BODY to use parameters
+     such as `$1'.
+
+   Prior to Autoconf 2.64, a macro defined by `AC_DEFUN_ONCE' would
+emit a warning if it was directly expanded a second time, so for
+portability, it is better to use `AC_REQUIRE' than direct invocation of
+MACRO-NAME inside a macro defined by `AC_DEFUN' (*note Prerequisite
+Macros::).

+
+10.5 Obsoleting Macros
+======================
+
+Configuration and portability technology has evolved over the years.
+Often better ways of solving a particular problem are developed, or
+ad-hoc approaches are systematized.  This process has occurred in many
+parts of Autoconf.  One result is that some of the macros are now
+considered "obsolete"; they still work, but are no longer considered
+the best thing to do, hence they should be replaced with more modern
+macros.  Ideally, `autoupdate' should replace the old macro calls with
+their modern implementation.
+
+   Autoconf provides a simple means to obsolete a macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AU_DEFUN (OLD-MACRO, IMPLEMENTATION, [MESSAGE])
+     Define OLD-MACRO as IMPLEMENTATION.  The only difference with
+     `AC_DEFUN' is that the user is warned that OLD-MACRO is now
+     obsolete.
+
+     If she then uses `autoupdate', the call to OLD-MACRO is replaced
+     by the modern IMPLEMENTATION.  MESSAGE should include information
+     on what to do after running `autoupdate'; `autoupdate' prints it
+     as a warning, and includes it in the updated `configure.ac' file.
+
+     The details of this macro are hairy: if `autoconf' encounters an
+     `AU_DEFUN'ed macro, all macros inside its second argument are
+     expanded as usual.  However, when `autoupdate' is run, only M4 and
+     M4sugar macros are expanded here, while all other macros are
+     disabled and appear literally in the updated `configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Macro: AU_ALIAS (OLD-NAME, NEW-NAME)
+     Used if the OLD-NAME is to be replaced by a call to NEW-MACRO with
+     the same parameters.  This happens for example if the macro was
+     renamed.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Coding Style,  Prev: Obsoleting Macros,  Up: Writing Autoconf Macros
+
+10.6 Coding Style
+=================
+
+The Autoconf macros follow a strict coding style.  You are encouraged to
+follow this style, especially if you intend to distribute your macro,
+either by contributing it to Autoconf itself or the Autoconf Macro
+Archive (http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/), or by other
+means.
+
+   The first requirement is to pay great attention to the quotation.
+For more details, see *note Autoconf Language::, and *note M4
+Quotation::.
+
+   Do not try to invent new interfaces.  It is likely that there is a
+macro in Autoconf that resembles the macro you are defining: try to
+stick to this existing interface (order of arguments, default values,
+etc.).  We _are_ conscious that some of these interfaces are not
+perfect; nevertheless, when harmless, homogeneity should be preferred
+over creativity.
+
+   Be careful about clashes both between M4 symbols and between shell
+variables.
+
+   If you stick to the suggested M4 naming scheme (*note Macro Names::),
+you are unlikely to generate conflicts.  Nevertheless, when you need to
+set a special value, _avoid using a regular macro name_; rather, use an
+"impossible" name.  For instance, up to version 2.13, the macro
+`AC_SUBST' used to remember what SYMBOL macros were already defined by
+setting `AC_SUBST_SYMBOL', which is a regular macro name.  But since
+there is a macro named `AC_SUBST_FILE', it was just impossible to
+`AC_SUBST(FILE)'!  In this case, `AC_SUBST(SYMBOL)' or
+`_AC_SUBST(SYMBOL)' should have been used (yes, with the parentheses).
+
+   No Autoconf macro should ever enter the user-variable name space;
+i.e., except for the variables that are the actual result of running the
+macro, all shell variables should start with `ac_'.  In addition, small
+macros or any macro that is likely to be embedded in other macros
+should be careful not to use obvious names.
+
+   Do not use `dnl' to introduce comments: most of the comments you are
+likely to write are either header comments which are not output anyway,
+or comments that should make their way into `configure'.  There are
+exceptional cases where you do want to comment special M4 constructs,
+in which case `dnl' is right, but keep in mind that it is unlikely.
+
+   M4 ignores the leading blanks and newlines before each argument.
+Use this feature to indent in such a way that arguments are (more or
+less) aligned with the opening parenthesis of the macro being called.
+For instance, instead of
+
+     AC_CACHE_CHECK(for EMX OS/2 environment,
+     ac_cv_emxos2,
+     [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(, [return __EMX__;])],
+     [ac_cv_emxos2=yes], [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+
+write
+
+     AC_CACHE_CHECK([for EMX OS/2 environment], [ac_cv_emxos2],
+     [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([], [return __EMX__;])],
+                        [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],
+                        [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+
+or even
+
+     AC_CACHE_CHECK([for EMX OS/2 environment],
+                    [ac_cv_emxos2],
+                    [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([],
+                                                        [return __EMX__;])],
+                                       [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],
+                                       [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+
+   When using `AC_RUN_IFELSE' or any macro that cannot work when
+cross-compiling, provide a pessimistic value (typically `no').
+
+   Feel free to use various tricks to prevent auxiliary tools, such as
+syntax-highlighting editors, from behaving improperly.  For instance,
+instead of:
+
+     m4_bpatsubst([$1], [$"])
+
+use
+
+     m4_bpatsubst([$1], [$""])
+
+so that Emacsen do not open an endless "string" at the first quote.
+For the same reasons, avoid:
+
+     test $[#] != 0
+
+and use:
+
+     test $[@%:@] != 0
+
+Otherwise, the closing bracket would be hidden inside a `#'-comment,
+breaking the bracket-matching highlighting from Emacsen.  Note the
+preferred style to escape from M4: `$[1]', `$[@]', etc.  Do not escape
+when it is unnecessary.  Common examples of useless quotation are
+`[$]$1' (write `$$1'), `[$]var' (use `$var'), etc.  If you add
+portability issues to the picture, you'll prefer `${1+"$[@]"}' to
+`"[$]@"', and you'll prefer do something better than hacking Autoconf
+`:-)'.
+
+   When using `sed', don't use `-e' except for indenting purposes.
+With the `s' and `y' commands, the preferred separator is `/' unless
+`/' itself might appear in the pattern or replacement, in which case
+you should use `|', or optionally `,' if you know the pattern and
+replacement cannot contain a file name.  If none of these characters
+will do, choose a printable character that cannot appear in the pattern
+or replacement.  Characters from the set `"#$&'()*;<=>?`|~' are good
+choices if the pattern or replacement might contain a file name, since
+they have special meaning to the shell and are less likely to occur in
+file names.
+
+   *Note Macro Definitions::, for details on how to define a macro.  If
+a macro doesn't use `AC_REQUIRE', is expected to never be the object of
+an `AC_REQUIRE' directive, and macros required by other macros inside
+arguments do not need to be expanded before this macro, then use
+`m4_define'.  In case of doubt, use `AC_DEFUN'.  Also take into account
+that public third-party macros need to use `AC_DEFUN' in order to be
+found by `aclocal' (*note Extending aclocal: (automake)Extending
+aclocal.).  All the `AC_REQUIRE' statements should be at the beginning
+of the macro, and each statement should be followed by `dnl'.
+
+   You should not rely on the number of arguments: instead of checking
+whether an argument is missing, test that it is not empty.  It provides
+both a simpler and a more predictable interface to the user, and saves
+room for further arguments.
+
+   Unless the macro is short, try to leave the closing `])' at the
+beginning of a line, followed by a comment that repeats the name of the
+macro being defined.  This introduces an additional newline in
+`configure'; normally, that is not a problem, but if you want to remove
+it you can use `[]dnl' on the last line.  You can similarly use `[]dnl'
+after a macro call to remove its newline.  `[]dnl' is recommended
+instead of `dnl' to ensure that M4 does not interpret the `dnl' as
+being attached to the preceding text or macro output.  For example,
+instead of:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_PATH_X],
+     [AC_MSG_CHECKING([for X])
+     AC_REQUIRE_CPP()
+     # ...omitted...
+       AC_MSG_RESULT([libraries $x_libraries, headers $x_includes])
+     fi])
+
+you would write:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_PATH_X],
+     [AC_REQUIRE_CPP()[]dnl
+     AC_MSG_CHECKING([for X])
+     # ...omitted...
+       AC_MSG_RESULT([libraries $x_libraries, headers $x_includes])
+     fi[]dnl
+     ])# AC_PATH_X
+
+   If the macro is long, try to split it into logical chunks.
+Typically, macros that check for a bug in a function and prepare its
+`AC_LIBOBJ' replacement should have an auxiliary macro to perform this
+setup.  Do not hesitate to introduce auxiliary macros to factor your
+code.
+
+   In order to highlight the recommended coding style, here is a macro
+written the old way:
+
+     dnl Check for EMX on OS/2.
+     dnl _AC_EMXOS2
+     AC_DEFUN(_AC_EMXOS2,
+     [AC_CACHE_CHECK(for EMX OS/2 environment, ac_cv_emxos2,
+     [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(, return __EMX__;)],
+     ac_cv_emxos2=yes, ac_cv_emxos2=no)])
+     test "x$ac_cv_emxos2" = xyes && EMXOS2=yes])
+
+and the new way:
+
+     # _AC_EMXOS2
+     # ----------
+     # Check for EMX on OS/2.
+     m4_define([_AC_EMXOS2],
+     [AC_CACHE_CHECK([for EMX OS/2 environment], [ac_cv_emxos2],
+     [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([], [return __EMX__;])],
+                        [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],
+                        [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+     test "x$ac_cv_emxos2" = xyes && EMXOS2=yes[]dnl
+     ])# _AC_EMXOS2

+11 Portable Shell Programming
+*****************************
+
+When writing your own checks, there are some shell-script programming
+techniques you should avoid in order to make your code portable.  The
+Bourne shell and upward-compatible shells like the Korn shell and Bash
+have evolved over the years, and many features added to the original
+System7 shell are now supported on all interesting porting targets.
+However, the following discussion between Russ Allbery and Robert Lipe
+is worth reading:
+
+Russ Allbery:
+
+     The GNU assumption that `/bin/sh' is the one and only shell leads
+     to a permanent deadlock.  Vendors don't want to break users'
+     existing shell scripts, and there are some corner cases in the
+     Bourne shell that are not completely compatible with a Posix
+     shell.  Thus, vendors who have taken this route will _never_
+     (OK..."never say never") replace the Bourne shell (as `/bin/sh')
+     with a Posix shell.
+
+Robert Lipe:
+
+     This is exactly the problem.  While most (at least most System
+     V's) do have a Bourne shell that accepts shell functions most
+     vendor `/bin/sh' programs are not the Posix shell.
+
+     So while most modern systems do have a shell _somewhere_ that
+     meets the Posix standard, the challenge is to find it.
+
+   For this reason, part of the job of M4sh (*note Programming in
+M4sh::) is to find such a shell.  But to prevent trouble, if you're not
+using M4sh you should not take advantage of features that were added
+after Unix version 7, circa 1977 (*note Systemology::); you should not
+use aliases, negated character classes, or even `unset'.  `#' comments,
+while not in Unix version 7, were retrofitted in the original Bourne
+shell and can be assumed to be part of the least common denominator.
+
+   On the other hand, if you're using M4sh you can assume that the shell
+has the features that were added in SVR2 (circa 1984), including shell
+functions, `return', `unset', and I/O redirection for builtins.  For
+more information, refer to `http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/bourne/'.
+However, some pitfalls have to be avoided for portable use of these
+constructs; these will be documented in the rest of this chapter.  See
+in particular *note Shell Functions:: and *note Limitations of Shell
+Builtins: Limitations of Builtins.
+
+   Some ancient systems have quite small limits on the length of the
+`#!' line; for instance, 32 bytes (not including the newline) on SunOS
+4.  However, these ancient systems are no longer of practical concern.
+
+   The set of external programs you should run in a `configure' script
+is fairly small.  *Note Utilities in Makefiles: (standards)Utilities in
+Makefiles, for the list.  This restriction allows users to start out
+with a fairly small set of programs and build the rest, avoiding too
+many interdependencies between packages.
+
+   Some of these external utilities have a portable subset of features;
+see *note Limitations of Usual Tools::.
+
+   There are other sources of documentation about shells.  The
+specification for the Posix Shell Command Language
+(http://www.opengroup.org/susv3/utilities/xcu_chap02.html), though more
+generous than the restrictive shell subset described above, is fairly
+portable nowadays.  Also please see the Shell FAQs

+
+11.1 Shellology
+===============
+
+There are several families of shells, most prominently the Bourne family
+and the C shell family which are deeply incompatible.  If you want to
+write portable shell scripts, avoid members of the C shell family.  The
+the Shell difference FAQ
+(http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/shell/shell-differences/) includes a
+small history of Posix shells, and a comparison between several of them.
+
+   Below we describe some of the members of the Bourne shell family.
+
+Ash
+     Ash is often used on GNU/Linux and BSD systems as a light-weight
+     Bourne-compatible shell.  Ash 0.2 has some bugs that are fixed in
+     the 0.3.x series, but portable shell scripts should work around
+     them, since version 0.2 is still shipped with many GNU/Linux
+     distributions.
+
+     To be compatible with Ash 0.2:
+
+        - don't use `$?' after expanding empty or unset variables, or
+          at the start of an `eval':
+
+               foo=
+               false
+               $foo
+               echo "Do not use it: $?"
+               false
+               eval 'echo "Do not use it: $?"'
+
+        - don't use command substitution within variable expansion:
+
+               cat ${FOO=`bar`}
+
+        - beware that single builtin substitutions are not performed by
+          a subshell, hence their effect applies to the current shell!
+          *Note Shell Substitutions::, item "Command Substitution".
+
+Bash
+     To detect whether you are running Bash, test whether
+     `BASH_VERSION' is set.  To require Posix compatibility, run `set
+     -o posix'.  *Note Bash Posix Mode: (bash)Bash POSIX Mode, for
+     details.
+
+Bash 2.05 and later
+     Versions 2.05 and later of Bash use a different format for the
+     output of the `set' builtin, designed to make evaluating its
+     output easier.  However, this output is not compatible with earlier
+     versions of Bash (or with many other shells, probably).  So if you
+     use Bash 2.05 or higher to execute `configure', you'll need to use
+     Bash 2.05 for all other build tasks as well.
+
+Ksh
+     The Korn shell is compatible with the Bourne family and it mostly
+     conforms to Posix.  It has two major variants commonly called
+     `ksh88' and `ksh93', named after the years of initial release.  It
+     is usually called `ksh', but is called `sh' on some hosts if you
+     set your path appropriately.
+
+     Solaris systems have three variants: `/usr/bin/ksh' is `ksh88'; it
+     is standard on Solaris 2.0 and later.  `/usr/xpg4/bin/sh' is a
+     Posix-compliant variant of `ksh88'; it is standard on Solaris 9
+     and later.  `/usr/dt/bin/dtksh' is `ksh93'.  Variants that are not
+     standard may be parts of optional packages.  There is no extra
+     charge for these packages, but they are not part of a minimal OS
+     install and therefore some installations may not have it.
+
+     Starting with Tru64 Version 4.0, the Korn shell `/usr/bin/ksh' is
+     also available as `/usr/bin/posix/sh'.  If the environment
+     variable `BIN_SH' is set to `xpg4', subsidiary invocations of the
+     standard shell conform to Posix.
+
+Pdksh
+     A public-domain clone of the Korn shell called `pdksh' is widely
+     available: it has most of the `ksh88' features along with a few of
+     its own.  It usually sets `KSH_VERSION', except if invoked as
+     `/bin/sh' on OpenBSD, and similarly to Bash you can require Posix
+     compatibility by running `set -o posix'.  Unfortunately, with
+     `pdksh' 5.2.14 (the latest stable version as of January 2007)
+     Posix mode is buggy and causes `pdksh' to depart from Posix in at
+     least one respect, see *note Shell Substitutions::.
+
+Zsh
+     To detect whether you are running `zsh', test whether
+     `ZSH_VERSION' is set.  By default `zsh' is _not_ compatible with
+     the Bourne shell: you must execute `emulate sh', and for `zsh'
+     versions before 3.1.6-dev-18 you must also set `NULLCMD' to `:'.
+     *Note Compatibility: (zsh)Compatibility, for details.
+
+     The default Mac OS X `sh' was originally Zsh; it was changed to
+     Bash in Mac OS X 10.2.

+
+11.2 Invoking the Shell
+=======================
+
+The Korn shell (up to at least version M-12/28/93d) has a bug when
+invoked on a file whose name does not contain a slash.  It first
+searches for the file's name in `PATH', and if found it executes that
+rather than the original file.  For example, assuming there is a binary
+executable `/usr/bin/script' in your `PATH', the last command in the
+following example fails because the Korn shell finds `/usr/bin/script'
+and refuses to execute it as a shell script:
+
+     $ touch xxyzzyz script
+     $ ksh xxyzzyz
+     $ ksh ./script
+     $ ksh script
+     ksh: script: cannot execute
+
+   Bash 2.03 has a bug when invoked with the `-c' option: if the
+option-argument ends in backslash-newline, Bash incorrectly reports a
+syntax error.  The problem does not occur if a character follows the
+backslash:
+
+     $ $ bash -c 'echo foo \
+     > '
+     bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
+     $ bash -c 'echo foo \
+     >  '
+     foo
+
+*Note Backslash-Newline-Empty::, for how this can cause problems in
+makefiles.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Here-Documents,  Next: File Descriptors,  Prev: Invoking the Shell,  Up: Portable Shell
+
+11.3 Here-Documents
+===================
+
+Don't rely on `\' being preserved just because it has no special
+meaning together with the next symbol.  In the native `sh' on OpenBSD
+2.7 `\"' expands to `"' in here-documents with unquoted delimiter.  As
+a general rule, if `\\' expands to `\' use `\\' to get `\'.
+
+   With OpenBSD 2.7's `sh'
+
+     $ cat <<EOF
+     > \" \\
+     > EOF
+     " \
+
+and with Bash:
+
+     bash-2.04$ cat <<EOF
+     > \" \\
+     > EOF
+     \" \
+
+   Using command substitutions in a here-document that is fed to a shell
+function is not portable.  For example, with Solaris 10 `/bin/sh':
+
+     $ kitty () { cat; }
+     $ kitty <<EOF
+     > `echo ok`
+     > EOF
+     /tmp/sh199886: cannot open
+     $ echo $?
+     1
+
+   Some shells mishandle large here-documents: for example, Solaris 10
+`dtksh' and the UnixWare 7.1.1 Posix shell, which are derived from Korn
+shell version M-12/28/93d, mishandle braced variable expansion that
+crosses a 1024- or 4096-byte buffer boundary within a here-document.
+Only the part of the variable name after the boundary is used.  For
+example, `${variable}' could be replaced by the expansion of `${ble}'.
+If the end of the variable name is aligned with the block boundary, the
+shell reports an error, as if you used `${}'.  Instead of
+`${variable-default}', the shell may expand `${riable-default}', or
+even `${fault}'.  This bug can often be worked around by omitting the
+braces: `$variable'.  The bug was fixed in `ksh93g' (1998-04-30) but as
+of 2006 many operating systems were still shipping older versions with
+the bug.
+
+   Empty here-documents are not portable either; with the following
+code, `zsh' up to at least version 4.3.10 creates a file with a single
+newline, whereas other shells create an empty file:
+
+     cat >file <<EOF
+     EOF
+
+   Many shells (including the Bourne shell) implement here-documents
+inefficiently.  In particular, some shells can be extremely inefficient
+when a single statement contains many here-documents.  For instance if
+your `configure.ac' includes something like:
+
+     if <cross_compiling>; then
+       assume this and that
+     else
+       check this
+       check that
+       check something else
+       ...
+       on and on forever
+       ...
+     fi
+
+   A shell parses the whole `if'/`fi' construct, creating temporary
+files for each here-document in it.  Some shells create links for such
+here-documents on every `fork', so that the clean-up code they had
+installed correctly removes them.  It is creating the links that can
+take the shell forever.
+
+   Moving the tests out of the `if'/`fi', or creating multiple
+`if'/`fi' constructs, would improve the performance significantly.
+Anyway, this kind of construct is not exactly the typical use of
+Autoconf.  In fact, it's even not recommended, because M4 macros can't
+look into shell conditionals, so we may fail to expand a macro when it
+was expanded before in a conditional path, and the condition turned out
+to be false at runtime, and we end up not executing the macro at all.
+
+   Be careful with the use of `<<-' to unindent here-documents.  The
+behavior is only portable for stripping leading <TAB>s, and things can
+silently break if an overzealous editor converts to using leading
+spaces (not all shells are nice enough to warn about unterminated
+here-documents).
+
+     $ printf 'cat <<-x\n\t1\n\t 2\n\tx\n' | bash && echo done
+     1
+      2
+     done
+     $ printf 'cat <<-x\n 1\n  2\n x\n' | bash-3.2 && echo done
+      1
+       2
+      x
+     done
+

+
+11.4 File Descriptors
+=====================
+
+Most shells, if not all (including Bash, Zsh, Ash), output traces on
+stderr, even for subshells.  This might result in undesirable content
+if you meant to capture the standard-error output of the inner command:
+
+     $ ash -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'
+     $ cat stderr
+     + eval echo foo >&2
+     + echo foo
+     foo
+     $ bash -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'
+     $ cat stderr
+     + eval 'echo foo >&2'
+     ++ echo foo
+     foo
+     $ zsh -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'
+     # Traces on startup files deleted here.
+     $ cat stderr
+     +zsh:1> eval echo foo >&2
+     +zsh:1> echo foo
+     foo
+
+One workaround is to grep out uninteresting lines, hoping not to remove
+good ones.
+
+   If you intend to redirect both standard error and standard output,
+redirect standard output first.  This works better with HP-UX, since
+its shell mishandles tracing if standard error is redirected first:
+
+     $ sh -x -c ': 2>err >out'
+     + :
+     + 2> err $ cat err
+     1> out
+
+   Don't try to redirect the standard error of a command substitution.
+It must be done _inside_ the command substitution.  When running `: `cd
+/zorglub` 2>/dev/null' expect the error message to escape, while `: `cd
+/zorglub 2>/dev/null`' works properly.
+
+   On the other hand, some shells, such as Solaris or FreeBSD
+`/bin/sh', warn about missing programs before performing redirections.
+Therefore, to silently check whether a program exists, it is necessary
+to perform redirections on a subshell or brace group:
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'nosuch 2>/dev/null'
+     nosuch: not found
+     $ /bin/sh -c '(nosuch) 2>/dev/null'
+     $ /bin/sh -c '{ nosuch; } 2>/dev/null'
+     $ bash -c 'nosuch 2>/dev/null'
+
+   FreeBSD 6.2 sh may mix the trace output lines from the statements in
+a shell pipeline.
+
+   It is worth noting that Zsh (but not Ash nor Bash) makes it possible
+in assignments though: `foo=`cd /zorglub` 2>/dev/null'.
+
+   Some shells, like `ash', don't recognize bi-directional redirection
+(`<>').  And even on shells that recognize it, it is not portable to
+use on fifos: Posix does not require read-write support for named
+pipes, and Cygwin does not support it:
+
+     $ mkfifo fifo
+     $ exec 5<>fifo
+     $ echo hi >&5
+     bash: echo: write error: Communication error on send
+
+Furthermore, versions of `dash' before 0.5.6 mistakenly truncate
+regular files when using `<>':
+
+     $ echo a > file
+     $ bash -c ': 1<>file'; cat file
+     a
+     $ dash -c ': 1<>file'; cat file
+     $ rm a
+
+   When catering to old systems, don't redirect the same file descriptor
+several times, as you are doomed to failure under Ultrix.

+     $ eval 'echo matter >fullness' >void
+     illegal io
+     $ eval '(echo matter >fullness)' >void
+     illegal io
+     $ (eval '(echo matter >fullness)') >void
+     Ambiguous output redirect.
+
+In each case the expected result is of course `fullness' containing
+`matter' and `void' being empty.  However, this bug is probably not of
+practical concern to modern platforms.
+
+   Solaris 10 `sh' will try to optimize away a `:' command (even if it
+is redirected) in a loop after the first iteration, or in a shell
+function after the first call:
+
+     $ for i in 1 2 3 ; do : >x$i; done
+     $ ls x*
+     x1
+     $ f () { : >$1; }; f y1; f y2; f y3;
+     $ ls y*
+     y1
+
+As a workaround, `echo' or `eval' can be used.
+
+   Don't rely on file descriptors 0, 1, and 2 remaining closed in a
+subsidiary program.  If any of these descriptors is closed, the
+operating system may open an unspecified file for the descriptor in the
+new process image.  Posix 2008 says this may be done only if the
+subsidiary program is set-user-ID or set-group-ID, but HP-UX 11.23 does
+it even for ordinary programs, and the next version of Posix will allow
+HP-UX behavior.
+
+   If you want a file descriptor above 2 to be inherited into a child
+process, then you must use redirections specific to that command or a
+containing subshell or command group, rather than relying on `exec' in
+the shell. In `ksh' as well as HP-UX `sh', file descriptors above 2
+which are opened using `exec N>file' are closed by a subsequent `exec'
+(such as that involved in the fork-and-exec which runs a program or
+script):
+
+     $ echo 'echo hello >&5' >k
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t
+     hello
+     $ bash -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t
+     hello
+     $ ksh -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t
+     ./k[1]: 5: cannot open [Bad file number]
+     $ ksh -c '(ksh ./k) 5>t; cat t'
+     hello
+     $ ksh -c '{ ksh ./k; } 5>t; cat t'
+     hello
+     $ ksh -c '5>t ksh ./k; cat t
+     hello
+
+   Don't rely on duplicating a closed file descriptor to cause an
+error.  With Solaris `/bin/sh', failed duplication is silently ignored,
+which can cause unintended leaks to the original file descriptor.  In
+this example, observe the leak to standard output:
+
+     $ bash -c 'echo hi >&3' 3>&-; echo $?
+     bash: 3: Bad file descriptor
+     1
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'echo hi >&3' 3>&-; echo $?
+     hi
+     0
+
+   Fortunately, an attempt to close an already closed file descriptor
+will portably succeed.  Likewise, it is safe to use either style of
+`N<&-' or `N>&-' for closing a file descriptor, even if it doesn't
+match the read/write mode that the file descriptor was opened with.
+
+   DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, such as in `mv foo
+bar >foo' or `rm foo >foo', even though this is perfectly portable
+among Posix hosts.
+
+   A few ancient systems reserved some file descriptors.  By convention,
+file descriptor 3 was opened to `/dev/tty' when you logged into Eighth
+Edition (1985) through Tenth Edition Unix (1989).  File descriptor 4
+had a special use on the Stardent/Kubota Titan (circa 1990), though we
+don't now remember what it was.  Both these systems are obsolete, so
+it's now safe to treat file descriptors 3 and 4 like any other file
+descriptors.
+
+   On the other hand, you can't portably use multi-digit file
+descriptors.  Solaris `ksh' doesn't understand any file descriptor
+larger than `9':
+
+     $ bash -c 'exec 10>&-'; echo $?
+     0
+     $ ksh -c 'exec 9>&-'; echo $?
+     0
+     $ ksh -c 'exec 10>&-'; echo $?
+     ksh[1]: exec: 10: not found

+
+11.5 Signal Handling
+====================
+
+Portable handling of signals within the shell is another major source of
+headaches.  This is worsened by the fact that various different,
+mutually incompatible approaches are possible in this area, each with
+its distinctive merits and demerits.  A detailed description of these
+possible approaches, as well as of their pros and cons, can be found in
+this article (http://www.cons.org/cracauer/sigint.html).
+
+   Solaris 10 `/bin/sh' automatically traps most signals by default;
+the shell still exits with error upon termination by one of those
+signals, but in such a case the exit status might be somewhat
+unexpected (even if allowed by POSIX, strictly speaking):
+
+     $ bash -c 'kill -1 $$'; echo $? # Will exit 128 + (signal number).
+     Hangup
+     129
+     $ /bin/ksh -c 'kill -15 $$'; echo $? # Likewise.
+     Terminated
+     143
+     $ for sig in 1 2 3 15; do
+     >   echo $sig:
+     >   /bin/sh -c "kill -$s \$\$"; echo $?
+     > done
+     signal 1:
+     Hangup
+     129
+     signal 2:
+     208
+     signal 3:
+     208
+     signal 15:
+     208
+
+   This gets even worse if one is using the POSIX `wait' interface to
+get details about the shell process terminations: it will result in the
+shell having exited normally, rather than by receiving a signal.
+
+     $ cat > foo.c <<'END'
+     #include <stdio.h>    /* for printf */
+     #include <stdlib.h>   /* for system */
+     #include <sys/wait.h> /* for WIF* macros */
+     int main(void)
+     {
+       int status = system ("kill -15 $$");
+       printf ("Terminated by signal: %s\n",
+               WIFSIGNALED (status) ? "yes" : "no");
+       printf ("Exited normally: %s\n",
+               WIFEXITED (status) ? "yes" : "no");
+       return 0;
+     }
+     END
+     $ cc -o foo foo.c
+     $ ./a.out # On GNU/Linux
+     Terminated by signal: no
+     Exited normally: yes
+     $ ./a.out # On Solaris 10
+     Terminated by signal: yes
+     Exited normally: no
+
+   Various shells seem to handle `SIGQUIT' specially: they ignore it
+even if it is not blocked, and even if the shell is not running
+interactively (in fact, even if the shell has no attached tty); among
+these shells are at least Bash (from version 2 onwards), Zsh 4.3.12,
+Solaris 10 `/bin/ksh' and `/usr/xpg4/bin/sh', and AT&T `ksh93' (2011).
+Still, `SIGQUIT' seems to be trappable quite portably within all these
+shells.  OTOH, some other shells doesn't special-case the handling of
+`SIGQUIT'; among these shells are at least `pdksh' 5.2.14, Solaris 10
+and NetBSD 5.1 `/bin/sh', and the Almquist Shell 0.5.5.1.
+
+   Some shells (especially Korn shells and derivatives) might try to
+propagate to themselves a signal that has killed a child process; this
+is not a bug, but a conscious design choice (although its overall value
+might be debatable).  The exact details of how this is attained vary
+from shell to shell.  For example, upon running `perl -e 'kill 2, $$'',
+after the perl process has been interrupted AT&T `ksh93' (2011) will
+proceed to send itself a `SIGINT', while Solaris 10 `/bin/ksh' and
+`/usr/xpg4/bin/sh' will proceed to exit with status 130 (i.e., 128 +
+2). In any case, if there is an active trap associated with `SIGINT',
+those shells will correctly execute it.
+
+   Some Korn shells, when a child process die due receiving a signal
+with signal number N, can leave in `$?' an exit status of 256+N instead
+of the more common 128+N.  Observe the difference between AT&T `ksh93'
+(2011) and `bash' 4.1.5 on Debian:
+
+     $ /bin/ksh -c 'sh -c "kill -1 \$\$"; echo $?'
+     /bin/ksh: line 1: 7837: Hangup
+     257
+     $ /bin/bash -c 'sh -c "kill -1 \$\$"; echo $?'
+     /bin/bash: line 1:  7861 Hangup        (sh -c "kill -1 \$\$")
+     129
+
+This `ksh' behavior is allowed by POSIX, if implemented with due care;
+see this Austin Group discussion
+(http://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=51) for more background.
+However, if it is not implemented with proper care, such a behavior
+might cause problems in some corner cases.  To see why, assume we have
+a "wrapper" script like this:
+
+     #!/bin/sh
+     # Ignore some signals in the shell only, not in its child processes.
+     trap : 1 2 13 15
+     wrapped_command "$@"
+     ret=$?
+     other_command
+     exit $ret
+
+If `wrapped_command' is interrupted by a `SIGHUP' (which has signal
+number 1), `ret' will be set to 257.  Unless the `exit' shell builtin
+is smart enough to understand that such a value can only have
+originated from a signal, and adjust the final wait status of the shell
+appropriately, the value 257 will just get truncated to 1 by the
+closing `exit' call, so that a caller of the script will have no way to
+determine that termination by a signal was involved.  Observe the
+different behavior of AT&T `ksh93' (2011) and `bash' 4.1.5 on Debian:
+
+     $ cat foo.sh
+     #!/bin/sh
+     sh -c 'kill -1 $$'
+     ret=$?
+     echo $ret
+     exit $ret
+     $ /bin/ksh foo.sh; echo $?
+     foo.sh: line 2: 12479: Hangup
+     257
+     1
+     $ /bin/bash foo.sh; echo $?
+     foo.sh: line 2: 12487 Hangup        (sh -c 'kill -1 $$')

+
+11.6 File System Conventions
+============================
+
+Autoconf uses shell-script processing extensively, so the file names
+that it processes should not contain characters that are special to the
+shell.  Special characters include space, tab, newline, NUL, and the
+following:
+
+     " # $ & ' ( ) * ; < = > ? [ \ ` |
+
+   Also, file names should not begin with `~' or `-', and should
+contain neither `-' immediately after `/' nor `~' immediately after
+`:'.  On Posix-like platforms, directory names should not contain `:',
+as this runs afoul of `:' used as the path separator.
+
+   These restrictions apply not only to the files that you distribute,
+but also to the absolute file names of your source, build, and
+destination directories.
+
+   On some Posix-like platforms, `!' and `^' are special too, so they
+should be avoided.
+
+   Posix lets implementations treat leading `//' specially, but
+requires leading `///' and beyond to be equivalent to `/'.  Most Unix
+variants treat `//' like `/'.  However, some treat `//' as a
+"super-root" that can provide access to files that are not otherwise
+reachable from `/'.  The super-root tradition began with Apollo
+Domain/OS, which died out long ago, but unfortunately Cygwin has
+revived it.
+
+   While `autoconf' and friends are usually run on some Posix variety,
+they can be used on other systems, most notably DOS variants.  This
+impacts several assumptions regarding file names.
+
+For example, the following code:
+
+     case $foo_dir in
+       /*) # Absolute
+          ;;
+       *)
+          foo_dir=$dots$foo_dir ;;
+     esac
+
+fails to properly detect absolute file names on those systems, because
+they can use a drivespec, and usually use a backslash as directory
+separator.  If you want to be portable to DOS variants (at the price of
+rejecting valid but oddball Posix file names like `a:\b'), you can
+check for absolute file names like this:
+
+     case $foo_dir in
+       [\\/]* | ?:[\\/]* ) # Absolute
+          ;;
+       *)
+          foo_dir=$dots$foo_dir ;;
+     esac
+
+Make sure you quote the brackets if appropriate and keep the backslash
+as first character (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins: case.).
+
+   Also, because the colon is used as part of a drivespec, these
+systems don't use it as path separator.  When creating or accessing
+paths, you can use the `PATH_SEPARATOR' output variable instead.
+`configure' sets this to the appropriate value for the build system
+(`:' or `;') when it starts up.
+
+   File names need extra care as well.  While DOS variants that are
+Posixy enough to run `autoconf' (such as DJGPP) are usually able to
+handle long file names properly, there are still limitations that can
+seriously break packages.  Several of these issues can be easily
+detected by the doschk
+(ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/non-gnu/doschk/doschk-1.1.tar.gz) package.
+
+   A short overview follows; problems are marked with SFN/LFN to
+indicate where they apply: SFN means the issues are only relevant to
+plain DOS, not to DOS under Microsoft Windows variants, while LFN
+identifies problems that exist even under Microsoft Windows variants.
+
+No multiple dots (SFN)
+     DOS cannot handle multiple dots in file names.  This is an
+     especially important thing to remember when building a portable
+     configure script, as `autoconf' uses a .in suffix for template
+     files.
+
+     This is perfectly OK on Posix variants:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([source.c foo.bar])
+          AC_OUTPUT
+
+     but it causes problems on DOS, as it requires `config.h.in',
+     `source.c.in' and `foo.bar.in'.  To make your package more portable
+     to DOS-based environments, you should use this instead:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h:config.hin])
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES([source.c:source.cin foo.bar:foobar.in])
+          AC_OUTPUT
+
+No leading dot (SFN)
+     DOS cannot handle file names that start with a dot.  This is
+     usually not important for `autoconf'.
+
+Case insensitivity (LFN)
+     DOS is case insensitive, so you cannot, for example, have both a
+     file called `INSTALL' and a directory called `install'.  This also
+     affects `make'; if there's a file called `INSTALL' in the
+     directory, `make install' does nothing (unless the `install'
+     target is marked as PHONY).
+
+The 8+3 limit (SFN)
+     Because the DOS file system only stores the first 8 characters of
+     the file name and the first 3 of the extension, those must be
+     unique.  That means that `foobar-part1.c', `foobar-part2.c' and
+     `foobar-prettybird.c' all resolve to the same file name
+     (`FOOBAR-P.C').  The same goes for `foo.bar' and `foo.bartender'.
+
+     The 8+3 limit is not usually a problem under Microsoft Windows, as
+     it uses numeric tails in the short version of file names to make
+     them unique.  However, a registry setting can turn this behavior
+     off.  While this makes it possible to share file trees containing
+     long file names between SFN and LFN environments, it also means
+     the above problem applies there as well.
+
+Invalid characters (LFN)
+     Some characters are invalid in DOS file names, and should therefore
+     be avoided.  In a LFN environment, these are `/', `\', `?', `*',
+     `:', `<', `>', `|' and `"'.  In a SFN environment, other
+     characters are also invalid.  These include `+', `,', `[' and `]'.
+
+Invalid names (LFN)
+     Some DOS file names are reserved, and cause problems if you try to
+     use files with those names.  These names include `CON', `AUX',
+     `COM1', `COM2', `COM3', `COM4', `LPT1', `LPT2', `LPT3', `NUL', and
+     `PRN'.  File names are case insensitive, so even names like
+     `aux/config.guess' are disallowed.

+
+11.7 Shell Pattern Matching
+===========================
+
+Nowadays portable patterns can use negated character classes like
+`[!-aeiou]'.  The older syntax `[^-aeiou]' is supported by some shells
+but not others; hence portable scripts should never use `^' as the
+first character of a bracket pattern.
+
+   Outside the C locale, patterns like `[a-z]' are problematic since
+they may match characters that are not lower-case letters.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Shell Substitutions,  Next: Assignments,  Prev: Shell Pattern Matching,  Up: Portable Shell
+
+11.8 Shell Substitutions
+========================
+
+Contrary to a persistent urban legend, the Bourne shell does not
+systematically split variables and back-quoted expressions, in
+particular on the right-hand side of assignments and in the argument of
+`case'.  For instance, the following code:
+
+     case "$given_srcdir" in
+     .)  top_srcdir="`echo "$dots" | sed 's|/$||'`" ;;
+     *)  top_srcdir="$dots$given_srcdir" ;;
+     esac
+
+is more readable when written as:
+
+     case $given_srcdir in
+     .)  top_srcdir=`echo "$dots" | sed 's|/$||'` ;;
+     *)  top_srcdir=$dots$given_srcdir ;;
+     esac
+
+and in fact it is even _more_ portable: in the first case of the first
+attempt, the computation of `top_srcdir' is not portable, since not all
+shells properly understand `"`..."..."...`"', for example Solaris 10
+ksh:
+
+     $ foo="`echo " bar" | sed 's, ,,'`"
+     ksh: : cannot execute
+     ksh: bar | sed 's, ,,': cannot execute
+
+Posix does not specify behavior for this sequence.  On the other hand,
+behavior for `"`...\"...\"...`"' is specified by Posix, but in
+practice, not all shells understand it the same way: pdksh 5.2.14
+prints spurious quotes when in Posix mode:
+
+     $ echo "`echo \"hello\"`"
+     hello
+     $ set -o posix
+     $ echo "`echo \"hello\"`"
+     "hello"
+
+There is just no portable way to use double-quoted strings inside
+double-quoted back-quoted expressions (pfew!).
+
+   Bash 4.1 has a bug where quoted empty strings adjacent to unquoted
+parameter expansions are elided during word splitting.  Meanwhile, zsh
+does not perform word splitting except when in Bourne compatibility
+mode.  In the example below, the correct behavior is to have five
+arguments to the function, and exactly two spaces on either side of the
+middle `-', since word splitting collapses multiple spaces in `$f' but
+leaves empty arguments intact.
+
+     $ bash -c 'n() { echo "$#$@"; }; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'
+     3- - -
+     $ ksh -c 'n() { echo "$#$@"; }; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'
+     5-  -  -
+     $ zsh -c 'n() { echo "$#$@"; }; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'
+     3-   -   -
+     $ zsh -c 'emulate sh;
+     > n() { echo "$#$@"; }; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'
+     5-  -  -
+
+You can work around this by doing manual word splitting, such as using
+`"$str" $list' rather than `"$str"$list'.
+
+   There are also portability pitfalls with particular expansions:
+
+`$@'
+     One of the most famous shell-portability issues is related to
+     `"$@"'.  When there are no positional arguments, Posix says that
+     `"$@"' is supposed to be equivalent to nothing, but the original
+     Unix version 7 Bourne shell treated it as equivalent to `""'
+     instead, and this behavior survives in later implementations like
+     Digital Unix 5.0.
+
+     The traditional way to work around this portability problem is to
+     use `${1+"$@"}'.  Unfortunately this method does not work with Zsh
+     (3.x and 4.x), which is used on Mac OS X.  When emulating the
+     Bourne shell, Zsh performs word splitting on `${1+"$@"}':
+
+          zsh $ emulate sh
+          zsh $ for i in "$@"; do echo $i; done
+          Hello World
+          !
+          zsh $ for i in ${1+"$@"}; do echo $i; done
+          Hello
+          World
+          !
+
+     Zsh handles plain `"$@"' properly, but we can't use plain `"$@"'
+     because of the portability problems mentioned above.  One
+     workaround relies on Zsh's "global aliases" to convert `${1+"$@"}'
+     into `"$@"' by itself:
+
+          test "${ZSH_VERSION+set}" = set && alias -g '${1+"$@"}'='"$@"'
+
+     Zsh only recognizes this alias when a shell word matches it
+     exactly; `"foo"${1+"$@"}' remains subject to word splitting.
+     Since this case always yields at least one shell word, use plain
+     `"$@"'.
+
+     A more conservative workaround is to avoid `"$@"' if it is
+     possible that there may be no positional arguments.  For example,
+     instead of:
+
+          cat conftest.c "$@"
+
+     you can use this instead:
+
+          case $# in
+          0) cat conftest.c;;
+          *) cat conftest.c "$@";;
+          esac
+
+     Autoconf macros often use the `set' command to update `$@', so if
+     you are writing shell code intended for `configure' you should not
+     assume that the value of `$@' persists for any length of time.
+
+`${10}'
+     The 10th, 11th, ... positional parameters can be accessed only
+     after a `shift'.  The 7th Edition shell reported an error if given
+     `${10}', and Solaris 10 `/bin/sh' still acts that way:
+
+          $ set 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
+          $ echo ${10}
+          bad substitution
+
+     Conversely, not all shells obey the Posix rule that when braces are
+     omitted, multiple digits beyond a `$' imply the single-digit
+     positional parameter expansion concatenated with the remaining
+     literal digits.  To work around the issue, you must use braces.
+
+          $ bash -c 'set a b c d e f g h i j; echo $10 ${1}0'
+          a0 a0
+          $ dash -c 'set a b c d e f g h i j; echo $10 ${1}0'
+          j a0
+
+`${VAR:-VALUE}'
+     Old BSD shells, including the Ultrix `sh', don't accept the colon
+     for any shell substitution, and complain and die.  Similarly for
+     ${VAR:=VALUE}, ${VAR:?VALUE}, etc.  However, all shells that
+     support functions allow the use of colon in shell substitution,
+     and since m4sh requires functions, you can portably use null
+     variable substitution patterns in configure scripts.
+
+`${VAR+VALUE}'
+     When using `${VAR-VALUE}' or `${VAR-VALUE}' for providing
+     alternate substitutions, VALUE must either be a single shell word,
+     quoted, or in the context of an unquoted here-document.  Solaris
+     `/bin/sh' complains otherwise.
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'echo ${a-b c}'
+          /bin/sh: bad substitution
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'echo ${a-'\''b c'\''}'
+          b c
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'echo "${a-b c}"'
+          b c
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'cat <<EOF
+          ${a-b c}
+          EOF
+          b c
+
+     According to Posix, if an expansion occurs inside double quotes,
+     then the use of unquoted double quotes within VALUE is
+     unspecified, and any single quotes become literal characters; in
+     that case, escaping must be done with backslash.  Likewise, the
+     use of unquoted here-documents is a case where double quotes have
+     unspecified results:
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'echo "${a-"b  c"}"'
+          /bin/sh: bad substitution
+          $ ksh -c 'echo "${a-"b  c"}"'
+          b c
+          $ bash -c 'echo "${a-"b  c"}"'
+          b  c
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'a=; echo ${a+'\''b  c'\''}'
+          b  c
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "${a+'\''b  c'\''}"'
+          'b  c'
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "${a+\"b  c\"}"'
+          "b  c"
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "${a+b  c}"'
+          b  c
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'cat <<EOF
+          ${a-"b  c"}
+          EOF'
+          "b  c"
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'cat <<EOF
+          ${a-'b  c'}
+          EOF'
+          'b  c'
+          $ bash -c 'cat <<EOF
+          ${a-"b  c"}
+          EOF'
+          b  c
+          $ bash -c 'cat <<EOF
+          ${a-'b  c'}
+          EOF'
+          'b  c'
+
+     Perhaps the easiest way to work around quoting issues in a manner
+     portable to all shells is to place the results in a temporary
+     variable, then use `$t' as the VALUE, rather than trying to inline
+     the expression needing quoting.
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 't="b  c\"'\''}\\"; echo "${a-$t}"'
+          b  c"'}\
+          $ ksh -c 't="b  c\"'\''}\\"; echo "${a-$t}"'
+          b  c"'}\
+          $ bash -c 't="b  c\"'\''}\\"; echo "${a-$t}"'
+          b  c"'}\
+
+`${VAR=VALUE}'
+     When using `${VAR=VALUE}' to assign a default value to VAR,
+     remember that even though the assignment to VAR does not undergo
+     file name expansion, the result of the variable expansion does
+     unless the expansion occurred within double quotes.  In particular,
+     when using `:' followed by unquoted variable expansion for the
+     side effect of setting a default value, if the final value of
+     `$var' contains any globbing characters (either from VALUE or from
+     prior contents), the shell has to spend time performing file name
+     expansion and field splitting even though those results will not be
+     used.  Therefore, it is a good idea to consider double quotes when
+     performing default initialization; while remembering how this
+     impacts any quoting characters appearing in VALUE.
+
+          $ time bash -c ': "${a=/usr/bin/*}"; echo "$a"'
+          /usr/bin/*
+
+          real	0m0.005s
+          user	0m0.002s
+          sys	0m0.003s
+          $ time bash -c ': ${a=/usr/bin/*}; echo "$a"'

+          user	0m0.026s
+          sys	0m0.009s
+          $ time bash -c 'a=/usr/bin/*; : ${a=noglob}; echo "$a"'
+          /usr/bin/*

+          real	0m0.031s
+          user	0m0.020s
+          sys	0m0.010s
+
+          $ time bash -c 'a=/usr/bin/*; : "${a=noglob}"; echo "$a"'
+          /usr/bin/*

+          user	0m0.002s
+          sys	0m0.003s
+
+     As with `+' and `-', you must use quotes when using `=' if the
+     VALUE contains more than one shell word; either single quotes for
+     just the VALUE, or double quotes around the entire expansion:
+
+          $ : ${var1='Some words'}
+          $ : "${var2=like this}"
+          $ echo $var1 $var2
+          Some words like this
+
+     otherwise some shells, such as Solaris `/bin/sh' or on Digital
+     Unix V 5.0, die because of a "bad substitution".  Meanwhile, Posix
+     requires that with `=', quote removal happens prior to the
+     assignment, and the expansion be the final contents of VAR without
+     quoting (and thus subject to field splitting), in contrast to the
+     behavior with `-' passing the quoting through to the final
+     expansion.  However, `bash' 4.1 does not obey this rule.
+
+          $ ksh -c 'echo ${var-a\ \ b}'
+          a  b
+          $ ksh -c 'echo ${var=a\ \ b}'
+          a b
+          $ bash -c 'echo ${var=a\ \ b}'
+          a  b
+
+     Finally, Posix states that when mixing `${a=b}' with regular
+     commands, it is unspecified whether the assignments affect the
+     parent shell environment.  It is best to perform assignments
+     independently from commands, to avoid the problems demonstrated in
+     this example:
+
+          $ bash -c 'x= y=${x:=b} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'
+          +b+b+
+          -b-
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'x= y=${x:=b} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'
+          ++b+
+          --
+          $ ksh -c 'x= y=${x:=b} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'
+          +b+b+
+          --
+
+`${VAR=VALUE}'
+     Solaris `/bin/sh' has a frightening bug in its handling of literal
+     assignments.  Imagine you need set a variable to a string
+     containing `}'.  This `}' character confuses Solaris `/bin/sh'
+     when the affected variable was already set.  This bug can be
+     exercised by running:
+
+          $ unset foo
+          $ foo=${foo='}'}
+          $ echo $foo
+          }
+          $ foo=${foo='}'   # no error; this hints to what the bug is
+          $ echo $foo
+          }
+          $ foo=${foo='}'}
+          $ echo $foo
+          }}
+           ^ ugh!
+
+     It seems that `}' is interpreted as matching `${', even though it
+     is enclosed in single quotes.  The problem doesn't happen using
+     double quotes, or when using a temporary variable holding the
+     problematic string.
+
+`${VAR=EXPANDED-VALUE}'
+     On Ultrix, running
+
+          default="yu,yaa"
+          : ${var="$default"}
+
+     sets VAR to `M-yM-uM-,M-yM-aM-a', i.e., the 8th bit of each char
+     is set.  You don't observe the phenomenon using a simple `echo
+     $var' since apparently the shell resets the 8th bit when it
+     expands $var.  Here are two means to make this shell confess its
+     sins:
+
+          $ cat -v <<EOF
+          $var
+          EOF
+
+     and
+
+          $ set | grep '^var=' | cat -v
+
+     One classic incarnation of this bug is:
+
+          default="a b c"
+          : ${list="$default"}
+          for c in $list; do
+            echo $c
+          done
+
+     You'll get `a b c' on a single line.  Why?  Because there are no
+     spaces in `$list': there are `M- ', i.e., spaces with the 8th bit
+     set, hence no IFS splitting is performed!!!
+
+     One piece of good news is that Ultrix works fine with `:
+     ${list=$default}'; i.e., if you _don't_ quote.  The bad news is
+     then that QNX 4.25 then sets LIST to the _last_ item of DEFAULT!
+
+     The portable way out consists in using a double assignment, to
+     switch the 8th bit twice on Ultrix:
+
+          list=${list="$default"}
+
+     ...but beware of the `}' bug from Solaris (see above).  For safety,
+     use:
+
+          test "${var+set}" = set || var={VALUE}
+
+`${#VAR}'
+`${VAR%WORD}'
+`${VAR%%WORD}'
+`${VAR#WORD}'
+`${VAR##WORD}'
+     Posix requires support for these usages, but they do not work with
+     many traditional shells, e.g., Solaris 10 `/bin/sh'.
+
+     Also, `pdksh' 5.2.14 mishandles some WORD forms.  For example if
+     `$1' is `a/b' and `$2' is `a', then `${1#$2}' should yield `/b',
+     but with `pdksh' it yields the empty string.
+
+``COMMANDS`'
+     Posix requires shells to trim all trailing newlines from command
+     output before substituting it, so assignments like `dir=`echo
+     "$file" | tr a A`' do not work as expected if `$file' ends in a
+     newline.
+
+     While in general it makes no sense, do not substitute a single
+     builtin with side effects, because Ash 0.2, trying to optimize,
+     does not fork a subshell to perform the command.
+
+     For instance, if you wanted to check that `cd' is silent, do not
+     use `test -z "`cd /`"' because the following can happen:
+
+          $ pwd
+          /tmp
+          $ test -z "`cd /`" && pwd
+          /
+
+     The result of `foo=`exit 1`' is left as an exercise to the reader.
+
+     The MSYS shell leaves a stray byte in the expansion of a
+     double-quoted command substitution of a native program, if the end
+     of the substitution is not aligned with the end of the double
+     quote.  This may be worked around by inserting another pair of
+     quotes:
+
+          $ echo "`printf 'foo\r\n'` bar" > broken
+          $ echo "`printf 'foo\r\n'`"" bar" | cmp - broken
+          - broken differ: char 4, line 1
+
+     Upon interrupt or SIGTERM, some shells may abort a command
+     substitution, replace it with a null string, and wrongly evaluate
+     the enclosing command before entering the trap or ending the
+     script.  This can lead to spurious errors:
+
+          $ sh -c 'if test `sleep 5; echo hi` = hi; then echo yes; fi'
+          $ ^C
+          sh: test: hi: unexpected operator/operand
+
+     You can avoid this by assigning the command substitution to a
+     temporary variable:
+
+          $ sh -c 'res=`sleep 5; echo hi`
+                   if test "x$res" = xhi; then echo yes; fi'
+          $ ^C
+
+`$(COMMANDS)'
+     This construct is meant to replace ``COMMANDS`', and it has most
+     of the problems listed under ``COMMANDS`'.
+
+     This construct can be nested while this is impossible to do
+     portably with back quotes.  Unfortunately it is not yet
+     universally supported.  Most notably, even recent releases of
+     Solaris don't support it:
+
+          $ showrev -c /bin/sh | grep version
+          Command version: SunOS 5.10 Generic 121005-03 Oct 2006
+          $ echo $(echo blah)
+          syntax error: `(' unexpected
+
+     nor does IRIX 6.5's Bourne shell:
+          $ uname -a
+          IRIX firebird-image 6.5 07151432 IP22
+          $ echo $(echo blah)
+          $(echo blah)
+
+     If you do use `$(COMMANDS)', make sure that the commands do not
+     start with a parenthesis, as that would cause confusion with a
+     different notation `$((EXPRESSION))' that in modern shells is an
+     arithmetic expression not a command.  To avoid the confusion,
+     insert a space between the two opening parentheses.
+
+     Avoid COMMANDS that contain unbalanced parentheses in
+     here-documents, comments, or case statement patterns, as many
+     shells mishandle them.  For example, Bash 3.1, `ksh88', `pdksh'
+     5.2.14, and Zsh 4.2.6 all mishandle the following valid command:
+
+          echo $(case x in x) echo hello;; esac)
+
+`$((EXPRESSION))'
+     Arithmetic expansion is not portable as some shells (most notably
+     Solaris 10 `/bin/sh') don't support it.
+
+     Among shells that do support `$(( ))', not all of them obey the
+     Posix rule that octal and hexadecimal constants must be recognized:
+
+          $ bash -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'
+          24
+          $ zsh -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'
+          26
+          $ zsh -c 'emulate sh; echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'
+          24
+          $ pdksh -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'
+          pdksh:  010 + 0x10 : bad number `0x10'
+          $ pdksh -c 'echo $(( 010 ))'
+          10
+
+     When it is available, using arithmetic expansion provides a
+     noticeable speedup in script execution; but testing for support
+     requires `eval' to avoid syntax errors.  The following construct
+     is used by `AS_VAR_ARITH' to provide arithmetic computation when
+     all arguments are provided in decimal and without a leading zero,
+     and all operators are properly quoted and appear as distinct
+     arguments:
+
+          if ( eval 'test $(( 1 + 1 )) = 2' ) 2>/dev/null; then
+            eval 'func_arith ()
+            {
+              func_arith_result=$(( $* ))
+            }'
+          else
+            func_arith ()
+            {
+              func_arith_result=`expr "$@"`
+            }
+          fi
+          func_arith 1 + 1
+          foo=$func_arith_result
+
+`^'
+     Always quote `^', otherwise traditional shells such as `/bin/sh'
+     on Solaris 10 treat this like `|'.

+11.9 Assignments
+================
+
+When setting several variables in a row, be aware that the order of the
+evaluation is undefined.  For instance `foo=1 foo=2; echo $foo' gives
+`1' with Solaris `/bin/sh', but `2' with Bash.  You must use `;' to
+enforce the order: `foo=1; foo=2; echo $foo'.
+
+   Don't rely on the following to find `subdir/program':
+
+     PATH=subdir$PATH_SEPARATOR$PATH program
+
+as this does not work with Zsh 3.0.6.  Use something like this instead:
+
+     (PATH=subdir$PATH_SEPARATOR$PATH; export PATH; exec program)
+
+   Don't rely on the exit status of an assignment: Ash 0.2 does not
+change the status and propagates that of the last statement:
+
+     $ false || foo=bar; echo $?
+     1
+     $ false || foo=`:`; echo $?
+     0
+
+and to make things even worse, QNX 4.25 just sets the exit status to 0
+in any case:
+
+     $ foo=`exit 1`; echo $?
+     0
+
+   To assign default values, follow this algorithm:
+
+  1. If the default value is a literal and does not contain any closing
+     brace, use:
+
+          : "${var='my literal'}"
+
+  2. If the default value contains no closing brace, has to be
+     expanded, and the variable being initialized is not intended to be
+     IFS-split (i.e., it's not a list), then use:
+
+          : ${var="$default"}
+
+  3. If the default value contains no closing brace, has to be
+     expanded, and the variable being initialized is intended to be
+     IFS-split (i.e., it's a list), then use:
+
+          var=${var="$default"}
+
+  4. If the default value contains a closing brace, then use:
+
+          test "${var+set}" = set || var="has a '}'"
+
+   In most cases `var=${var="$default"}' is fine, but in case of doubt,
+just use the last form.  *Note Shell Substitutions::, items
+`${VAR:-VALUE}' and `${VAR=VALUE}' for the rationale.

+
+11.10 Parentheses in Shell Scripts
+==================================
+
+Beware of two opening parentheses in a row, as many shell
+implementations treat them specially, and Posix says that a portable
+script cannot use `((' outside the `$((' form used for shell
+arithmetic.  In traditional shells, `((cat))' behaves like `(cat)'; but
+many shells, including Bash and the Korn shell, treat `((cat))' as an
+arithmetic expression equivalent to `let "cat"', and may or may not
+report an error when they detect that `cat' is not a number.  As another
+example, `pdksh' 5.2.14 does not treat the following code as a
+traditional shell would:
+
+     if ((true) || false); then
+       echo ok
+     fi
+
+To work around this problem, insert a space between the two opening
+parentheses.  There is a similar problem and workaround with `$(('; see
+*note Shell Substitutions::.

+11.11 Slashes in Shell Scripts
+==============================
+
+Unpatched Tru64 5.1 `sh' omits the last slash of command-line arguments
+that contain two trailing slashes:
+
+     $ echo / // /// //// .// //.
+     / / // /// ./ //.
+     $ x=//
+     $ eval "echo \$x"

+     $ set -x
+     $ echo abc | tr -t ab //
+     + echo abc
+     + tr -t ab /
+     /bc
+
+   Unpatched Tru64 4.0 `sh' adds a slash after `"$var"' if the variable
+is empty and the second double-quote is followed by a word that begins
+and ends with slash:
+
+     $ sh -xc 'p=; echo "$p"/ouch/'
+     p=
+     + echo //ouch/
+     //ouch/
+
+   However, our understanding is that patches are available, so perhaps
+it's not worth worrying about working around these horrendous bugs.

+11.12 Special Shell Variables
+=============================
+
+Some shell variables should not be used, since they can have a deep
+influence on the behavior of the shell.  In order to recover a sane
+behavior from the shell, some variables should be unset; M4sh takes
+care of this and provides fallback values, whenever needed, to cater
+for a very old `/bin/sh' that does not support `unset'.  (*note
+Portable Shell Programming: Portable Shell.).
+
+   As a general rule, shell variable names containing a lower-case
+letter are safe; you can define and use these variables without
+worrying about their effect on the underlying system, and without
+worrying about whether the shell changes them unexpectedly.  (The
+exception is the shell variable `status', as described below.)
+
+   Here is a list of names that are known to cause trouble.  This list
+is not exhaustive, but you should be safe if you avoid the name
+`status' and names containing only upper-case letters and underscores.

+     Not all shells correctly reset `$?' after conditionals (*note
+     Limitations of Shell Builtins: if.).  Not all shells manage `$?'
+     correctly in shell functions (*note Shell Functions::) or in traps
+     (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins: trap.).  Not all shells reset
+     `$?' to zero after an empty command.
+
+          $ bash -c 'false; $empty; echo $?'
+          0
+          $ zsh -c 'false; $empty; echo $?'
+          1
+
+`_'
+     Many shells reserve `$_' for various purposes, e.g., the name of
+     the last command executed.
+
+`BIN_SH'
+     In Tru64, if `BIN_SH' is set to `xpg4', subsidiary invocations of
+     the standard shell conform to Posix.
+
+`CDPATH'
+     When this variable is set it specifies a list of directories to
+     search when invoking `cd' with a relative file name that did not
+     start with `./' or `../'.  Posix 1003.1-2001 says that if a
+     nonempty directory name from `CDPATH' is used successfully, `cd'
+     prints the resulting absolute file name.  Unfortunately this
+     output can break idioms like `abs=`cd src && pwd`' because `abs'
+     receives the name twice.  Also, many shells do not conform to this
+     part of Posix; for example, `zsh' prints the result only if a
+     directory name other than `.' was chosen from `CDPATH'.
+
+     In practice the shells that have this problem also support
+     `unset', so you can work around the problem as follows:
+
+          (unset CDPATH) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset CDPATH
+
+     You can also avoid output by ensuring that your directory name is
+     absolute or anchored at `./', as in `abs=`cd ./src && pwd`'.
+
+     Configure scripts use M4sh, which automatically unsets `CDPATH' if
+     possible, so you need not worry about this problem in those
+     scripts.
+
+`CLICOLOR_FORCE'
+     When this variable is set, some implementations of tools like `ls'
+     attempt to add color to their output via terminal escape
+     sequences, even when the output is not directed to a terminal, and
+     can thus cause spurious failures in scripts.  Configure scripts
+     use M4sh, which automatically unsets this variable.
+
+`DUALCASE'
+     In the MKS shell, case statements and file name generation are
+     case-insensitive unless `DUALCASE' is nonzero.  Autoconf-generated
+     scripts export this variable when they start up.
+
+`ENV'
+`MAIL'
+`MAILPATH'
+`PS1'
+`PS2'
+`PS4'
+     These variables should not matter for shell scripts, since they are
+     supposed to affect only interactive shells.  However, at least one
+     shell (the pre-3.0 UWIN Korn shell) gets confused about whether it
+     is interactive, which means that (for example) a `PS1' with a side
+     effect can unexpectedly modify `$?'.  To work around this bug,
+     M4sh scripts (including `configure' scripts) do something like
+     this:
+
+          (unset ENV) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset ENV MAIL MAILPATH
+          PS1='$ '
+          PS2='> '
+          PS4='+ '
+
+     (actually, there is some complication due to bugs in `unset';
+     *note Limitations of Shell Builtins: unset.).
+
+`FPATH'
+     The Korn shell uses `FPATH' to find shell functions, so avoid
+     `FPATH' in portable scripts.  `FPATH' is consulted after `PATH',
+     but you still need to be wary of tests that use `PATH' to find
+     whether a command exists, since they might report the wrong result
+     if `FPATH' is also set.
+
+`GREP_OPTIONS'
+     When this variable is set, some implementations of `grep' honor
+     these options, even if the options include direction to enable
+     colored output via terminal escape sequences, and the result can
+     cause spurious failures when the output is not directed to a
+     terminal.  Configure scripts use M4sh, which automatically unsets
+     this variable.
+
+`IFS'
+     Long ago, shell scripts inherited `IFS' from the environment, but
+     this caused many problems so modern shells ignore any environment
+     settings for `IFS'.
+
+     Don't set the first character of `IFS' to backslash.  Indeed,
+     Bourne shells use the first character (backslash) when joining the
+     components in `"$@"' and some shells then reinterpret (!) the
+     backslash escapes, so you can end up with backspace and other
+     strange characters.
+
+     The proper value for `IFS' (in regular code, not when performing
+     splits) is `<SPC><TAB><RET>'.  The first character is especially
+     important, as it is used to join the arguments in `$*'; however,
+     note that traditional shells, but also bash-2.04, fail to adhere
+     to this and join with a space anyway.
+
+     M4sh guarantees that `IFS' will have the default value at the
+     beginning of a script, and many macros within autoconf rely on this
+     setting.  It is okay to use blocks of shell code that temporarily
+     change the value of `IFS' in order to split on another character,
+     but remember to restore it before expanding further macros.
+
+     Unsetting `IFS' instead of resetting it to the default sequence is
+     not suggested, since code that tries to save and restore the
+     variable's value will incorrectly reset it to an empty value, thus
+     disabling field splitting:
+
+          unset IFS
+          # default separators used for field splitting
+
+          save_IFS=$IFS
+          IFS=:
+          # ...
+          IFS=$save_IFS
+          # no field splitting performed
+
+`LANG'
+`LC_ALL'
+`LC_COLLATE'
+`LC_CTYPE'
+`LC_MESSAGES'
+`LC_MONETARY'
+`LC_NUMERIC'
+`LC_TIME'
+     You should set all these variables to `C' because so much
+     configuration code assumes the C locale and Posix requires that
+     locale environment variables be set to `C' if the C locale is
+     desired; `configure' scripts and M4sh do that for you.  Export
+     these variables after setting them.
+
+`LANGUAGE'
+     `LANGUAGE' is not specified by Posix, but it is a GNU extension
+     that overrides `LC_ALL' in some cases, so you (or M4sh) should set
+     it too.
+
+`LC_ADDRESS'
+`LC_IDENTIFICATION'
+`LC_MEASUREMENT'
+`LC_NAME'
+`LC_PAPER'
+`LC_TELEPHONE'
+     These locale environment variables are GNU extensions.  They are
+     treated like their Posix brethren (`LC_COLLATE', etc.) as
+     described above.
+
+`LINENO'
+     Most modern shells provide the current line number in `LINENO'.
+     Its value is the line number of the beginning of the current
+     command.  M4sh, and hence Autoconf, attempts to execute
+     `configure' with a shell that supports `LINENO'.  If no such shell
+     is available, it attempts to implement `LINENO' with a Sed prepass
+     that replaces each instance of the string `$LINENO' (not followed
+     by an alphanumeric character) with the line's number.  In M4sh
+     scripts you should execute `AS_LINENO_PREPARE' so that these
+     workarounds are included in your script; configure scripts do this
+     automatically in `AC_INIT'.
+
+     You should not rely on `LINENO' within `eval' or shell functions,
+     as the behavior differs in practice.  The presence of a quoted
+     newline within simple commands can alter which line number is used
+     as the starting point for `$LINENO' substitutions within that
+     command.  Also, the possibility of the Sed prepass means that you
+     should not rely on `$LINENO' when quoted, when in here-documents,
+     or when line continuations are used.  Subshells should be OK,
+     though.  In the following example, lines 1, 9, and 14 are
+     portable, but the other instances of `$LINENO' do not have
+     deterministic values:
+
+          $ cat lineno
+          echo 1. $LINENO
+          echo "2. $LINENO
+          3. $LINENO"
+          cat <<EOF
+          5. $LINENO
+          6. $LINENO
+          7. \$LINENO
+          EOF
+          ( echo 9. $LINENO )
+          eval 'echo 10. $LINENO'
+          eval 'echo 11. $LINENO
+          echo 12. $LINENO'
+          echo 13. '$LINENO'
+          echo 14. $LINENO '
+          15.' $LINENO
+          f () { echo $1 $LINENO;
+          echo $1 $LINENO }
+          f 18.

+
+     In particular, note that `config.status' (and any other subsidiary
+     script created by `AS_INIT_GENERATED') might report line numbers
+     relative to the parent script as a result of the potential Sed
+     pass.
+
+`NULLCMD'
+     When executing the command `>foo', `zsh' executes `$NULLCMD >foo'
+     unless it is operating in Bourne shell compatibility mode and the
+     `zsh' version is newer than 3.1.6-dev-18.  If you are using an
+     older `zsh' and forget to set `NULLCMD', your script might be
+     suspended waiting for data on its standard input.
+
+`options'
+     For `zsh' 4.3.10, `options' is treated as an associative array
+     even after `emulate sh', so it should not be used.
+
+`PATH_SEPARATOR'
+     On DJGPP systems, the `PATH_SEPARATOR' environment variable can be
+     set to either `:' or `;' to control the path separator Bash uses
+     to set up certain environment variables (such as `PATH').  You can
+     set this variable to `;' if you want `configure' to use `;' as a
+     separator; this might be useful if you plan to use non-Posix
+     shells to execute files.  *Note File System Conventions::, for
+     more information about `PATH_SEPARATOR'.
+
+`POSIXLY_CORRECT'
+     In the GNU environment, exporting `POSIXLY_CORRECT' with any value
+     (even empty) causes programs to try harder to conform to Posix.
+     Autoconf does not directly manipulate this variable, but `bash'
+     ties the shell variable `POSIXLY_CORRECT' to whether the script is
+     running in Posix mode.  Therefore, take care when exporting or
+     unsetting this variable, so as not to change whether `bash' is in
+     Posix mode.
+
+          $ bash --posix -c 'set -o | grep posix
+          > unset POSIXLY_CORRECT
+          > set -o | grep posix'
+          posix           on
+          posix           off
+
+`PWD'
+     Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that `cd' and `pwd' must update the
+     `PWD' environment variable to point to the logical name of the
+     current directory, but traditional shells do not support this.
+     This can cause confusion if one shell instance maintains `PWD' but
+     a subsidiary and different shell does not know about `PWD' and
+     executes `cd'; in this case `PWD' points to the wrong directory.
+     Use ``pwd`' rather than `$PWD'.
+
+`RANDOM'
+     Many shells provide `RANDOM', a variable that returns a different
+     integer each time it is used.  Most of the time, its value does not
+     change when it is not used, but on IRIX 6.5 the value changes all
+     the time.  This can be observed by using `set'.  It is common
+     practice to use `$RANDOM' as part of a file name, but code
+     shouldn't rely on `$RANDOM' expanding to a nonempty string.
+
+`status'
+     This variable is an alias to `$?' for `zsh' (at least 3.1.6),
+     hence read-only.  Do not use it.

+
+11.13 Shell Functions
+=====================
+
+Nowadays, it is difficult to find a shell that does not support shell
+functions at all.  However, some differences should be expected.
+
+   When declaring a shell function, you must include whitespace between
+the `)' after the function name and the start of the compound
+expression, to avoid upsetting `ksh'.  While it is possible to use any
+compound command, most scripts use `{...}'.
+
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'a(){ echo hi;}; a'
+     hi
+     $ ksh -c 'a(){ echo hi;}; a'
+     ksh: syntax error at line 1: `}' unexpected
+     $ ksh -c 'a() { echo hi;}; a'
+     hi
+
+   Inside a shell function, you should not rely on the error status of a
+subshell if the last command of that subshell was `exit' or `trap', as
+this triggers bugs in zsh 4.x; while Autoconf tries to find a shell
+that does not exhibit the bug, zsh might be the only shell present on
+the user's machine.
+
+   Likewise, the state of `$?' is not reliable when entering a shell
+function.  This has the effect that using a function as the first
+command in a `trap' handler can cause problems.
+
+     $ bash -c 'foo() { echo $?; }; trap foo 0; (exit 2); exit 2'; echo $?
+     2
+     2
+     $ ash -c 'foo() { echo $?; }; trap foo 0; (exit 2); exit 2'; echo $?
+     0
+     2
+
+   DJGPP bash 2.04 has a bug in that `return' from a shell function
+which also used a command substitution causes a segmentation fault.  To
+work around the issue, you can use `return' from a subshell, or
+`AS_SET_STATUS' as last command in the execution flow of the function
+(*note Common Shell Constructs::).
+
+   Not all shells treat shell functions as simple commands impacted by
+`set -e', for example with Solaris 10 `/bin/sh':
+
+     $ bash -c 'f() { return 1; }; set -e; f; echo oops'
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'f() { return 1; }; set -e; f; echo oops'
+     oops
+
+   Shell variables and functions may share the same namespace, for
+example with Solaris 10 `/bin/sh':
+
+     $ f () { :; }; f=; f
+     f: not found
+
+For this reason, Autoconf (actually M4sh, *note Programming in M4sh::)
+uses the prefix `as_fn_' for its functions.
+
+   Handling of positional parameters and shell options varies among
+shells.  For example, Korn shells reset and restore trace output (`set
+-x') and other options upon function entry and exit.  Inside a function,
+IRIX sh sets `$0' to the function name.
+
+   It is not portable to pass temporary environment variables to shell
+functions.  Solaris `/bin/sh' does not see the variable.  Meanwhile,
+not all shells follow the Posix rule that the assignment must affect
+the current environment in the same manner as special built-ins.
+
+     $ /bin/sh -c 'func() { echo $a;}; a=1 func; echo $a'
+     =>
+     =>
+     $ ash -c 'func() { echo $a;}; a=1 func; echo $a'
+     =>1
+     =>
+     $ bash -c 'set -o posix; func() { echo $a;}; a=1 func; echo $a'
+     =>1
+     =>1
+
+   Some ancient Bourne shell variants with function support did not
+reset `$I, I >= 0', upon function exit, so effectively the arguments of
+the script were lost after the first function invocation.  It is
+probably not worth worrying about these shells any more.
+
+   With AIX sh, a `trap' on 0 installed in a shell function triggers at
+function exit rather than at script exit.  *Note Limitations of Shell
+Builtins: trap.

+
+11.14 Limitations of Shell Builtins
+===================================
+
+No, no, we are serious: some shells do have limitations!  :)
+
+   You should always keep in mind that any builtin or command may
+support options, and therefore differ in behavior with arguments
+starting with a dash.  For instance, even the innocent `echo "$word"'
+can give unexpected results when `word' starts with a dash.  It is
+often possible to avoid this problem using `echo "x$word"', taking the
+`x' into account later in the pipe.  Many of these limitations can be
+worked around using M4sh (*note Programming in M4sh::).
+
+`.'
+     Use `.' only with regular files (use `test -f').  Bash 2.03, for
+     instance, chokes on `. /dev/null'.  Remember that `.' uses `PATH'
+     if its argument contains no slashes.  Also, some shells, including
+     bash 3.2, implicitly append the current directory to this `PATH'
+     search, even though Posix forbids it.  So if you want to use `.'
+     on a file `foo' in the current directory, you must use `. ./foo'.
+
+     Not all shells gracefully handle syntax errors within a sourced
+     file.  On one extreme, some non-interactive shells abort the
+     entire script.  On the other, `zsh' 4.3.10 has a bug where it
+     fails to react to the syntax error.
+
+          $ echo 'fi' > syntax
+          $ bash -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'
+          ./syntax: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
+          ./syntax: line 1: `fi'
+          1
+          $ ash -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'
+          ./syntax: 1: Syntax error: "fi" unexpected
+          $ zsh -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'
+          ./syntax:1: parse error near `fi'
+          0
+
+`!'
+     The Unix version 7 shell did not support negating the exit status
+     of commands with `!', and this feature is still absent from some
+     shells (e.g., Solaris `/bin/sh').  Other shells, such as FreeBSD
+     `/bin/sh' or `ash', have bugs when using `!':
+
+          $ sh -c '! : | :'; echo $?
+          1
+          $ ash -c '! : | :'; echo $?
+          0
+          $ sh -c '! { :; }'; echo $?
+          1
+          $ ash -c '! { :; }'; echo $?
+          {: not found
+          Syntax error: "}" unexpected
+          2
+
+     Shell code like this:
+
+          if ! cmp file1 file2 >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+            echo files differ or trouble
+          fi
+
+     is therefore not portable in practice.  Typically it is easy to
+     rewrite such code, e.g.:
+
+          cmp file1 file2 >/dev/null 2>&1 ||
+            echo files differ or trouble
+
+     More generally, one can always rewrite `! COMMAND' as:
+
+          if COMMAND; then (exit 1); else :; fi
+
+`{...}'
+     Bash 3.2 (and earlier versions) sometimes does not properly set
+     `$?' when failing to write redirected output of a compound command.
+     This problem is most commonly observed with `{...}'; it does not
+     occur with `(...)'.  For example:
+
+          $ bash -c '{ echo foo; } >/bad; echo $?'
+          bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+          0
+          $ bash -c 'while :; do echo; done >/bad; echo $?'
+          bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+          0
+
+     To work around the bug, prepend `:;':
+
+          $ bash -c ':;{ echo foo; } >/bad; echo $?'
+          bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+          1
+
+     Posix requires a syntax error if a brace list has no contents.
+     However, not all shells obey this rule; and on shells where empty
+     lists are permitted, the effect on `$?' is inconsistent.  To avoid
+     problems, ensure that a brace list is never empty.
+
+          $ bash -c 'false; { }; echo $?' || echo $?
+          bash: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `}'
+          bash: line 1: `false; { }; echo $?'
+          2
+          $ zsh -c 'false; { }; echo $?' || echo $?
+          1
+          $ pdksh -c 'false; { }; echo $?' || echo $?
+          0
+
+`break'
+     The use of `break 2' etc. is safe.
+
+`case'
+     You don't need to quote the argument; no splitting is performed.
+
+     You don't need the final `;;', but you should use it.
+
+     Posix requires support for `case' patterns with opening
+     parentheses like this:
+
+          case $file_name in
+            (*.c) echo "C source code";;
+          esac
+
+     but the `(' in this example is not portable to many Bourne shell
+     implementations, which is a pity for those of us using tools that
+     rely on balanced parentheses.  For instance, with Solaris
+     `/bin/sh':
+
+          $ case foo in (foo) echo foo;; esac
+          error-->syntax error: `(' unexpected
+
+     The leading `(' can be omitted safely.  Unfortunately, there are
+     contexts where unbalanced parentheses cause other problems, such
+     as when using a syntax-highlighting editor that searches for the
+     balancing counterpart, or more importantly, when using a case
+     statement as an underquoted argument to an Autoconf macro.  *Note
+     Balancing Parentheses::, for tradeoffs involved in various styles
+     of dealing with unbalanced `)'.
+
+     Zsh handles pattern fragments derived from parameter expansions or
+     command substitutions as though quoted:
+
+          $ pat=\?; case aa in ?$pat) echo match;; esac
+          $ pat=\?; case a? in ?$pat) echo match;; esac
+          match
+
+     Because of a bug in its `fnmatch', Bash fails to properly handle
+     backslashes in character classes:
+
+          bash-2.02$ case /tmp in [/\\]*) echo OK;; esac
+          bash-2.02$
+
+     This is extremely unfortunate, since you are likely to use this
+     code to handle Posix or MS-DOS absolute file names.  To work
+     around this bug, always put the backslash first:
+
+          bash-2.02$ case '\TMP' in [\\/]*) echo OK;; esac
+          OK
+          bash-2.02$ case /tmp in [\\/]*) echo OK;; esac
+          OK
+
+     Many Bourne shells cannot handle closing brackets in character
+     classes correctly.
+
+     Some shells also have problems with backslash escaping in case you
+     do not want to match the backslash: both a backslash and the
+     escaped character match this pattern.  To work around this,
+     specify the character class in a variable, so that quote removal
+     does not apply afterwards, and the special characters don't have
+     to be backslash-escaped:
+
+          $ case '\' in [\<]) echo OK;; esac
+          OK
+          $ scanset='[<]'; case '\' in $scanset) echo OK;; esac
+          $
+
+     Even with this, Solaris `ksh' matches a backslash if the set
+     contains any of the characters `|', `&', `(', or `)'.
+
+     Conversely, Tru64 `ksh' (circa 2003) erroneously always matches a
+     closing parenthesis if not specified in a character class:
+
+          $ case foo in *\)*) echo fail ;; esac
+          fail
+          $ case foo in *')'*) echo fail ;; esac
+          fail
+
+     Some shells, such as Ash 0.3.8, are confused by an empty
+     `case'/`esac':
+
+          ash-0.3.8 $ case foo in esac;
+          error-->Syntax error: ";" unexpected (expecting ")")
+
+     Posix requires `case' to give an exit status of 0 if no cases
+     match.  However, `/bin/sh' in Solaris 10 does not obey this rule.
+     Meanwhile, it is unclear whether a case that matches, but contains
+     no statements, must also change the exit status to 0.  The M4sh
+     macro `AS_CASE' works around these inconsistencies.
+
+          $ bash -c 'case `false` in ?) ;; esac; echo $?'
+          0
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'case `false` in ?) ;; esac; echo $?'
+          255
+
+`cd'
+     Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that `cd' must support the `-L'
+     ("logical") and `-P' ("physical") options, with `-L' being the
+     default.  However, traditional shells do not support these
+     options, and their `cd' command has the `-P' behavior.
+
+     Portable scripts should assume neither option is supported, and
+     should assume neither behavior is the default.  This can be a bit
+     tricky, since the Posix default behavior means that, for example,
+     `ls ..' and `cd ..' may refer to different directories if the
+     current logical directory is a symbolic link.  It is safe to use
+     `cd DIR' if DIR contains no `..' components.  Also,
+     Autoconf-generated scripts check for this problem when computing
+     variables like `ac_top_srcdir' (*note Configuration Actions::), so
+     it is safe to `cd' to these variables.
+
+     Posix states that behavior is undefined if `cd' is given an
+     explicit empty argument.  Some shells do nothing, some change to
+     the first entry in `CDPATH', some change to `HOME', and some exit
+     the shell rather than returning an error.  Unfortunately, this
+     means that if `$var' is empty, then `cd "$var"' is less predictable
+     than `cd $var' (at least the latter is well-behaved in all shells
+     at changing to `HOME', although this is probably not what you
+     wanted in a script).  You should check that a directory name was
+     supplied before trying to change locations.
+
+     *Note Special Shell Variables::, for portability problems involving
+     `cd' and the `CDPATH' environment variable.  Also please see the
+     discussion of the `pwd' command.
+
+`echo'
+     The simple `echo' is probably the most surprising source of
+     portability troubles.  It is not possible to use `echo' portably
+     unless both options and escape sequences are omitted.  Don't
+     expect any option.
+
+     Do not use backslashes in the arguments, as there is no consensus
+     on their handling.  For `echo '\n' | wc -l', the `sh' of Solaris
+     outputs 2, but Bash and Zsh (in `sh' emulation mode) output 1.
+     The problem is truly `echo': all the shells understand `'\n'' as
+     the string composed of a backslash and an `n'.  Within a command
+     substitution, `echo 'string\c'' will mess up the internal state of
+     ksh88 on AIX 6.1 so that it will print the first character `s'
+     only, followed by a newline, and then entirely drop the output of
+     the next echo in a command substitution.
+
+     Because of these problems, do not pass a string containing
+     arbitrary characters to `echo'.  For example, `echo "$foo"' is safe
+     only if you know that FOO's value cannot contain backslashes and
+     cannot start with `-'.
+
+     If this may not be true, `printf' is in general safer and easier
+     to use than `echo' and `echo -n'.  Thus, scripts where portability
+     is not a major concern should use `printf '%s\n'' whenever `echo'
+     could fail, and similarly use `printf %s' instead of `echo -n'.
+     For portable shell scripts, instead, it is suggested to use a
+     here-document like this:
+
+          cat <<EOF
+          $foo
+          EOF
+
+     Alternatively, M4sh provides `AS_ECHO' and `AS_ECHO_N' macros
+     which choose between various portable implementations: `echo' or
+     `print' where they work, `printf' if it is available, or else
+     other creative tricks in order to work around the above problems.
+
+`eval'
+     The `eval' command is useful in limited circumstances, e.g., using
+     commands like `eval table_$key=\$value' and `eval
+     value=table_$key' to simulate a hash table when the key is known
+     to be alphanumeric.
+
+     You should also be wary of common bugs in `eval' implementations.
+     In some shell implementations (e.g., older `ash', OpenBSD 3.8
+     `sh', `pdksh' v5.2.14 99/07/13.2, and `zsh' 4.2.5), the arguments
+     of `eval' are evaluated in a context where `$?' is 0, so they
+     exhibit behavior like this:
+
+          $ false; eval 'echo $?'
+          0
+
+     The correct behavior here is to output a nonzero value, but
+     portable scripts should not rely on this.
+
+     You should not rely on `LINENO' within `eval'.  *Note Special
+     Shell Variables::.
+
+     Note that, even though these bugs are easily avoided, `eval' is
+     tricky to use on arbitrary arguments.  It is obviously unwise to
+     use `eval $cmd' if the string value of `cmd' was derived from an
+     untrustworthy source.  But even if the string value is valid,
+     `eval $cmd' might not work as intended, since it causes field
+     splitting and file name expansion to occur twice, once for the
+     `eval' and once for the command itself.  It is therefore safer to
+     use `eval "$cmd"'.  For example, if CMD has the value `cat
+     test?.c', `eval $cmd' might expand to the equivalent of `cat
+     test;.c' if there happens to be a file named `test;.c' in the
+     current directory; and this in turn mistakenly attempts to invoke
+     `cat' on the file `test' and then execute the command `.c'.  To
+     avoid this problem, use `eval "$cmd"' rather than `eval $cmd'.
+
+     However, suppose that you want to output the text of the evaluated
+     command just before executing it.  Assuming the previous example,
+     `echo "Executing: $cmd"' outputs `Executing: cat test?.c', but
+     this output doesn't show the user that `test;.c' is the actual name
+     of the copied file.  Conversely, `eval "echo Executing: $cmd"'
+     works on this example, but it fails with `cmd='cat foo >bar'',
+     since it mistakenly replaces the contents of `bar' by the string
+     `cat foo'.  No simple, general, and portable solution to this
+     problem is known.
+
+`exec'
+     Posix describes several categories of shell built-ins.  Special
+     built-ins (such as `exit') must impact the environment of the
+     current shell, and need not be available through `exec'.  All
+     other built-ins are regular, and must not propagate variable
+     assignments to the environment of the current shell.  However, the
+     group of regular built-ins is further distinguished by commands
+     that do not require a `PATH' search (such as `cd'), in contrast to
+     built-ins that are offered as a more efficient version of
+     something that must still be found in a `PATH' search (such as
+     `echo').  Posix is not clear on whether `exec' must work with the
+     list of 17 utilities that are invoked without a `PATH' search, and
+     many platforms lack an executable for some of those built-ins:
+
+          $ sh -c 'exec cd /tmp'
+          sh: line 0: exec: cd: not found
+
+     All other built-ins that provide utilities specified by Posix must
+     have a counterpart executable that exists on `PATH', although Posix
+     allows `exec' to use the built-in instead of the executable.  For
+     example, contrast `bash' 3.2 and `pdksh' 5.2.14:
+
+          $ bash -c 'pwd --version' | head -n1
+          bash: line 0: pwd: --: invalid option
+          pwd: usage: pwd [-LP]
+          $ bash -c 'exec pwd --version' | head -n1
+          pwd (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+          $ pdksh -c 'exec pwd --version' | head -n1
+          pdksh: pwd: --: unknown option
+
+     When it is desired to avoid a regular shell built-in, the
+     workaround is to use some other forwarding command, such as `env'
+     or `nice', that will ensure a path search:
+
+          $ pdksh -c 'exec true --version' | head -n1
+          $ pdksh -c 'nice true --version' | head -n1
+          true (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+          $ pdksh -c 'env true --version' | head -n1
+          true (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+
+`exit'
+     The default value of `exit' is supposed to be `$?'; unfortunately,
+     some shells, such as the DJGPP port of Bash 2.04, just perform
+     `exit 0'.
+
+          bash-2.04$ foo=`exit 1` || echo fail
+          fail
+          bash-2.04$ foo=`(exit 1)` || echo fail
+          fail
+          bash-2.04$ foo=`(exit 1); exit` || echo fail
+          bash-2.04$
+
+     Using `exit $?' restores the expected behavior.
+
+     Some shell scripts, such as those generated by `autoconf', use a
+     trap to clean up before exiting.  If the last shell command exited
+     with nonzero status, the trap also exits with nonzero status so
+     that the invoker can tell that an error occurred.
+
+     Unfortunately, in some shells, such as Solaris `/bin/sh', an exit
+     trap ignores the `exit' command's argument.  In these shells, a
+     trap cannot determine whether it was invoked by plain `exit' or by
+     `exit 1'.  Instead of calling `exit' directly, use the
+     `AC_MSG_ERROR' macro that has a workaround for this problem.
+
+`export'
+     The builtin `export' dubs a shell variable "environment variable".
+     Each update of exported variables corresponds to an update of the
+     environment variables.  Conversely, each environment variable
+     received by the shell when it is launched should be imported as a
+     shell variable marked as exported.
+
+     Alas, many shells, such as Solaris `/bin/sh', IRIX 6.3, IRIX 5.2,
+     AIX 4.1.5, and Digital Unix 4.0, forget to `export' the
+     environment variables they receive.  As a result, two variables
+     coexist: the environment variable and the shell variable.  The
+     following code demonstrates this failure:
+
+          #!/bin/sh
+          echo $FOO
+          FOO=bar
+          echo $FOO
+          exec /bin/sh $0
+
+     when run with `FOO=foo' in the environment, these shells print
+     alternately `foo' and `bar', although they should print only `foo'
+     and then a sequence of `bar's.
+
+     Therefore you should `export' again each environment variable that
+     you update; the export can occur before or after the assignment.
+
+     Posix is not clear on whether the `export' of an undefined
+     variable causes the variable to be defined with the value of an
+     empty string, or merely marks any future definition of a variable
+     by that name for export.  Various shells behave differently in
+     this regard:
+
+          $ sh -c 'export foo; env | grep foo'
+          $ ash -c 'export foo; env | grep foo'
+          foo=
+
+     Posix requires `export' to honor assignments made as arguments,
+     but older shells do not support this, including `/bin/sh' in
+     Solaris 10.  Portable scripts should separate assignments and
+     exports into different statements.
+
+          $ bash -c 'export foo=bar; echo $foo'
+          bar
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'export foo=bar; echo $foo'
+          /bin/sh: foo=bar: is not an identifier
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'export foo; foo=bar; echo $foo'
+          bar
+
+`false'
+     Don't expect `false' to exit with status 1: in native Solaris
+     `/bin/false' exits with status 255.
+
+`for'
+     To loop over positional arguments, use:
+
+          for arg
+          do
+            echo "$arg"
+          done
+
+     You may _not_ leave the `do' on the same line as `for', since some
+     shells improperly grok:
+
+          for arg; do
+            echo "$arg"
+          done
+
+     If you want to explicitly refer to the positional arguments, given
+     the `$@' bug (*note Shell Substitutions::), use:
+
+          for arg in ${1+"$@"}; do
+            echo "$arg"
+          done
+
+     But keep in mind that Zsh, even in Bourne shell emulation mode,
+     performs word splitting on `${1+"$@"}'; see *note Shell
+     Substitutions::, item `$@', for more.
+
+     In Solaris `/bin/sh', when the list of arguments of a `for' loop
+     starts with _unquoted_ tokens looking like variable assignments,
+     the loop is not executed on those tokens:
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'for v in a=b c=d x e=f; do echo $v; done'
+          x
+          e=f
+
+     Thankfully, quoting the assignment-like tokens, or starting the
+     list with other tokens (including unquoted variable expansion that
+     results in an assignment-like result), avoids the problem, so it
+     is easy to work around:
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'for v in "a=b"; do echo $v; done'
+          a=b
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'x=a=b; for v in $x c=d; do echo $v; done'
+          a=b
+          c=d
+
+`if'
+     Using `!' is not portable.  Instead of:
+
+          if ! cmp -s file file.new; then
+            mv file.new file
+          fi
+
+     use:
+
+          if cmp -s file file.new; then :; else
+            mv file.new file
+          fi
+
+     Or, especially if the "else" branch is short, you can use `||'.
+     In M4sh, the `AS_IF' macro provides an easy way to write these
+     kinds of conditionals:
+
+          AS_IF([cmp -s file file.new], [], [mv file.new file])
+
+     This is especially useful in other M4 macros, where the "then" and
+     "else" branches might be macro arguments.
+
+     Some very old shells did not reset the exit status from an `if'
+     with no `else':
+
+          $ if (exit 42); then true; fi; echo $?
+          42
+
+     whereas a proper shell should have printed `0'.  But this is no
+     longer a portability problem; any shell that supports functions
+     gets it correct.  However, it explains why some makefiles have
+     lengthy constructs:
+
+          if test -f "$file"; then
+            install "$file" "$dest"
+          else
+            :
+          fi
+
+`printf'
+     A format string starting with a `-' can cause problems.  Bash
+     interprets it as an option and gives an error.  And `--' to mark
+     the end of options is not good in the NetBSD Almquist shell (e.g.,
+     0.4.6) which takes that literally as the format string.  Putting
+     the `-' in a `%c' or `%s' is probably easiest:
+
+          printf %s -foo
+
+     Bash 2.03 mishandles an escape sequence that happens to evaluate
+     to `%':
+
+          $ printf '\045'
+          bash: printf: `%': missing format character
+
+     Large outputs may cause trouble.  On Solaris 2.5.1 through 10, for
+     example, `/usr/bin/printf' is buggy, so when using `/bin/sh' the
+     command `printf %010000x 123' normally dumps core.
+
+     Since `printf' is not always a shell builtin, there is a potential
+     speed penalty for using `printf '%s\n'' as a replacement for an
+     `echo' that does not interpret `\' or leading `-'. With Solaris
+     `ksh', it is possible to use `print -r --' for this role instead.
+
+     *Note Limitations of Shell Builtins: echo for a discussion of
+     portable alternatives to both `printf' and `echo'.
+
+`pwd'
+     With modern shells, plain `pwd' outputs a "logical" directory
+     name, some of whose components may be symbolic links.  These
+     directory names are in contrast to "physical" directory names,
+     whose components are all directories.
+
+     Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that `pwd' must support the `-L'
+     ("logical") and `-P' ("physical") options, with `-L' being the
+     default.  However, traditional shells do not support these
+     options, and their `pwd' command has the `-P' behavior.
+
+     Portable scripts should assume neither option is supported, and
+     should assume neither behavior is the default.  Also, on many hosts
+     `/bin/pwd' is equivalent to `pwd -P', but Posix does not require
+     this behavior and portable scripts should not rely on it.
+
+     Typically it's best to use plain `pwd'.  On modern hosts this
+     outputs logical directory names, which have the following
+     advantages:
+
+        * Logical names are what the user specified.
+
+        * Physical names may not be portable from one installation host
+          to another due to network file system gymnastics.
+
+        * On modern hosts `pwd -P' may fail due to lack of permissions
+          to some parent directory, but plain `pwd' cannot fail for this
+          reason.
+
+     Also please see the discussion of the `cd' command.
+
+`read'
+     No options are portable, not even support `-r' (Solaris `/bin/sh'
+     for example).  Tru64/OSF 5.1 `sh' treats `read' as a special
+     built-in, so it may exit if input is redirected from a
+     non-existent or unreadable file.
+
+`set'
+     With the FreeBSD 6.0 shell, the `set' command (without any
+     options) does not sort its output.
+
+     The `set' builtin faces the usual problem with arguments starting
+     with a dash.  Modern shells such as Bash or Zsh understand `--' to
+     specify the end of the options (any argument after `--' is a
+     parameter, even `-x' for instance), but many traditional shells
+     (e.g., Solaris 10 `/bin/sh') simply stop option processing as soon
+     as a non-option argument is found.  Therefore, use `dummy' or
+     simply `x' to end the option processing, and use `shift' to pop it
+     out:
+
+          set x $my_list; shift
+
+     Avoid `set -', e.g., `set - $my_list'.  Posix no longer requires
+     support for this command, and in traditional shells `set -
+     $my_list' resets the `-v' and `-x' options, which makes scripts
+     harder to debug.
+
+     Some nonstandard shells do not recognize more than one option
+     (e.g., `set -e -x' assigns `-x' to the command line).  It is
+     better to combine them:
+
+          set -ex
+
+     The option `-e' has historically been underspecified, with enough
+     ambiguities to cause numerous differences across various shell
+     implementations; see for example this overview
+     (http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/various/set-e/), or this link
+     (http://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=52), documenting a
+     change to Posix 2008 to match `ksh88' behavior.  Note that mixing
+     `set -e' and shell functions is asking for surprises:
+
+          set -e
+          doit()
+          {
+            rm file
+            echo one
+          }
+          doit || echo two
+
+     According to the recommendation, `one' should always be output
+     regardless of whether the `rm' failed, because it occurs within
+     the body of the shell function `doit' invoked on the left side of
+     `||', where the effects of `set -e' are not enforced.  Likewise,
+     `two' should never be printed, since the failure of `rm' does not
+     abort the function, such that the status of `doit' is 0.
+
+     The BSD shell has had several problems with the `-e' option.
+     Older versions of the BSD shell (circa 1990) mishandled `&&',
+     `||', `if', and `case' when `-e' was in effect, causing the shell
+     to exit unexpectedly in some cases.  This was particularly a
+     problem with makefiles, and led to circumlocutions like `sh -c
+     'test -f file || touch file'', where the seemingly-unnecessary `sh
+     -c '...'' wrapper works around the bug (*note Failure in Make
+     Rules::).
+
+     Even relatively-recent versions of the BSD shell (e.g., OpenBSD
+     3.4) wrongly exit with `-e' if the last command within a compound
+     statement fails and is guarded by an `&&' only.  For example:
+
+          #! /bin/sh
+          set -e
+          foo=''
+          test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+          echo one
+          if :; then
+            test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+            echo two
+            test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+          fi
+          echo three
+
+     does not print `three'.  One workaround is to change the last
+     instance of `test -n "$foo" && exit 1' to be `if test -n "$foo";
+     then exit 1; fi' instead.  Another possibility is to warn BSD
+     users not to use `sh -e'.
+
+     When `set -e' is in effect, a failed command substitution in
+     Solaris `/bin/sh' cannot be ignored, even with `||'.
+
+          $ /bin/sh -c 'set -e; foo=`false` || echo foo; echo bar'
+          $ bash -c 'set -e; foo=`false` || echo foo; echo bar'
+          foo
+          bar
+
+     Moreover, a command substitution, successful or not, causes this
+     shell to exit from a failing outer command even in presence of an
+     `&&' list:
+
+          $ bash -c 'set -e; false `true` && echo notreached; echo ok'
+          ok
+          $ sh -c 'set -e; false `true` && echo notreached; echo ok'
+          $
+
+     Portable scripts should not use `set -e' if `trap' is used to
+     install an exit handler.  This is because Tru64/OSF 5.1 `sh'
+     sometimes enters the trap handler with the exit status of the
+     command prior to the one that triggered the errexit handler:
+
+          $ sh -ec 'trap '\''echo $?'\'' 0; false'
+          0
+          $ sh -c 'set -e; trap '\''echo $?'\'' 0; false'
+          1
+
+     Thus, when writing a script in M4sh, rather than trying to rely on
+     `set -e', it is better to append `|| AS_EXIT' to any statement
+     where it is desirable to abort on failure.
+
+     Job control is not provided by all shells, so the use of `set -m'
+     or `set -b' must be done with care.  When using `zsh' in native
+     mode, asynchronous notification (`set -b') is enabled by default,
+     and using `emulate sh' to switch to Posix mode does not clear this
+     setting (although asynchronous notification has no impact unless
+     job monitoring is also enabled).  Also, `zsh' 4.3.10 and earlier
+     have a bug where job control can be manipulated in interactive
+     shells, but not in subshells or scripts.  Furthermore, some
+     shells, like `pdksh', fail to treat subshells as interactive, even
+     though the parent shell was.
+
+          $ echo $ZSH_VERSION
+          4.3.10
+          $ set -m; echo $?
+          0
+          $ zsh -c 'set -m; echo $?'
+          set: can't change option: -m
+          $ (set -m); echo $?
+          set: can't change option: -m
+          1
+          $ pdksh -ci 'echo $-; (echo $-)'
+          cim
+          c
+
+     Use of `set -n' (typically via `sh -n script') to validate a
+     script is not foolproof.  Modern `ksh93' tries to be helpful by
+     informing you about better syntax, but switching the script to use
+     the suggested syntax in order to silence the warnings would render
+     the script no longer portable to older shells:
+
+          $ ksh -nc '``'
+          ksh: warning: line 1: `...` obsolete, use $(...)
+          0
+
+     Furthermore, on ancient hosts, such as SunOS 4, `sh -n' could go
+     into an infinite loop; even with that bug fixed, Solaris 8
+     `/bin/sh' takes extremely long to parse large scripts.  Autoconf
+     itself uses `sh -n' within its testsuite to check that correct
+     scripts were generated, but only after first probing for other
+     shell features (such as `test -n "${BASH_VERSION+set}"') that
+     indicate a reasonably fast and working implementation.
+
+`shift'
+     Not only is `shift'ing a bad idea when there is nothing left to
+     shift, but in addition it is not portable: the shell of MIPS
+     RISC/OS 4.52 refuses to do it.
+
+     Don't use `shift 2' etc.; while it in the SVR1 shell (1983), it is
+     also absent in many pre-Posix shells.
+
+`source'
+     This command is not portable, as Posix does not require it; use
+     `.' instead.
+
+`test'
+     The `test' program is the way to perform many file and string
+     tests.  It is often invoked by the alternate name `[', but using
+     that name in Autoconf code is asking for trouble since it is an M4
+     quote character.
+
+     The `-a', `-o', `(', and `)' operands are not present in all
+     implementations, and have been marked obsolete by Posix 2008.
+     This is because there are inherent ambiguities in using them.  For
+     example, `test "$1" -a "$2"' looks like a binary operator to check
+     whether two strings are both non-empty, but if `$1' is the literal
+     `!', then some implementations of `test' treat it as a negation of
+     the unary operator `-a'.
+
+     Thus, portable uses of `test' should never have more than four
+     arguments, and scripts should use shell constructs like `&&' and
+     `||' instead.  If you combine `&&' and `||' in the same statement,
+     keep in mind that they have equal precedence, so it is often
+     better to parenthesize even when this is redundant.  For example:
+
+          # Not portable:
+          test "X$a" = "X$b" -a \
+            '(' "X$c" != "X$d" -o "X$e" = "X$f" ')'
+
+          # Portable:
+          test "X$a" = "X$b" &&
+            { test "X$c" != "X$d" || test "X$e" = "X$f"; }
+
+     `test' does not process options like most other commands do; for
+     example, it does not recognize the `--' argument as marking the
+     end of options.
+
+     It is safe to use `!' as a `test' operator.  For example, `if test
+     ! -d foo; ...' is portable even though `if ! test -d foo; ...' is
+     not.
+
+`test' (files)
+     To enable `configure' scripts to support cross-compilation, they
+     shouldn't do anything that tests features of the build system
+     instead of the host system.  But occasionally you may find it
+     necessary to check whether some arbitrary file exists.  To do so,
+     use `test -f', `test -r', or `test -x'.  Do not use `test -e',
+     because Solaris 10 `/bin/sh' lacks it.  To test for symbolic links
+     on systems that have them, use `test -h' rather than `test -L';
+     either form conforms to Posix 1003.1-2001, but older shells like
+     Solaris 8 `/bin/sh' support only `-h'.
+
+     For historical reasons, Posix reluctantly allows implementations of
+     `test -x' that will succeed for the root user, even if no execute
+     permissions are present.  Furthermore, shells do not all agree on
+     whether Access Control Lists should affect `test -r', `test -w',
+     and `test -x'; some shells base test results strictly on the
+     current user id compared to file owner and mode, as if by
+     `stat(2)'; while other shells base test results on whether the
+     current user has the given right, even if that right is only
+     granted by an ACL, as if by `faccessat(2)'.  Furthermore, there is
+     a classic time of check to time of use race between any use of
+     `test' followed by operating on the just-checked file.  Therefore,
+     it is a good idea to write scripts that actually attempt an
+     operation, and are prepared for the resulting failure if
+     permission is denied, rather than trying to avoid an operation
+     based solely on whether `test' guessed that it might not be
+     permitted.
+
+`test' (strings)
+     Posix says that `test "STRING"' succeeds if STRING is not null,
+     but this usage is not portable to traditional platforms like
+     Solaris 10 `/bin/sh', which mishandle strings like `!' and `-n'.
+
+     Posix also says that `test ! "STRING"', `test -n "STRING"' and
+     `test -z "STRING"' work with any string, but many shells (such as
+     Solaris, AIX 3.2, UNICOS 10.0.0.6, Digital Unix 4, etc.) get
+     confused if STRING looks like an operator:
+
+          $ test -n =
+          test: argument expected
+          $ test ! -n
+          test: argument expected
+          $ test -z ")"; echo $?
+          0
+
+     Similarly, Posix says that both `test "STRING1" = "STRING2"' and
+     `test "STRING1" != "STRING2"' work for any pairs of strings, but
+     in practice this is not true for troublesome strings that look
+     like operators or parentheses, or that begin with `-'.
+
+     It is best to protect such strings with a leading `X', e.g., `test
+     "XSTRING" != X' rather than `test -n "STRING"' or `test !
+     "STRING"'.
+
+     It is common to find variations of the following idiom:
+
+          test -n "`echo $ac_feature | sed 's/[-a-zA-Z0-9_]//g'`" &&
+            ACTION
+
+     to take an action when a token matches a given pattern.  Such
+     constructs should be avoided by using:
+
+          case $ac_feature in
+            *[!-a-zA-Z0-9_]*) ACTION;;
+          esac
+
+     If the pattern is a complicated regular expression that cannot be
+     expressed as a shell pattern, use something like this instead:
+
+          expr "X$ac_feature" : 'X.*[^-a-zA-Z0-9_]' >/dev/null &&
+            ACTION
+
+     `expr "XFOO" : "XBAR"' is more robust than `echo "XFOO" | grep
+     "^XBAR"', because it avoids problems when `FOO' contains
+     backslashes.
+
+`trap'
+     It is safe to trap at least the signals 1, 2, 13, and 15.  You can
+     also trap 0, i.e., have the `trap' run when the script ends
+     (either via an explicit `exit', or the end of the script).  The
+     trap for 0 should be installed outside of a shell function, or AIX
+     5.3 `/bin/sh' will invoke the trap at the end of this function.
+
+     Posix says that `trap - 1 2 13 15' resets the traps for the
+     specified signals to their default values, but many common shells
+     (e.g., Solaris `/bin/sh') misinterpret this and attempt to execute
+     a "command" named `-' when the specified conditions arise.  Posix
+     2008 also added a requirement to support `trap 1 2 13 15' to reset
+     traps, as this is supported by a larger set of shells, but there
+     are still shells like `dash' that mistakenly try to execute `1'
+     instead of resetting the traps.  Therefore, there is no portable
+     workaround, except for `trap - 0', for which `trap '' 0' is a
+     portable substitute.
+
+     Although Posix is not absolutely clear on this point, it is widely
+     admitted that when entering the trap `$?' should be set to the exit
+     status of the last command run before the trap.  The ambiguity can
+     be summarized as: "when the trap is launched by an `exit', what is
+     the _last_ command run: that before `exit', or `exit' itself?"
+
+     Bash considers `exit' to be the last command, while Zsh and
+     Solaris `/bin/sh' consider that when the trap is run it is _still_
+     in the `exit', hence it is the previous exit status that the trap
+     receives:
+
+          $ cat trap.sh
+          trap 'echo $?' 0
+          (exit 42); exit 0
+          $ zsh trap.sh
+          42
+          $ bash trap.sh
+          0
+
+     The portable solution is then simple: when you want to `exit 42',
+     run `(exit 42); exit 42', the first `exit' being used to set the
+     exit status to 42 for Zsh, and the second to trigger the trap and
+     pass 42 as exit status for Bash.  In M4sh, this is covered by using
+     `AS_EXIT'.
+
+     The shell in FreeBSD 4.0 has the following bug: `$?' is reset to 0
+     by empty lines if the code is inside `trap'.
+
+          $ trap 'false
+
+          echo $?' 0
+          $ exit
+          0
+
+     Fortunately, this bug only affects `trap'.
+
+     Several shells fail to execute an exit trap that is defined inside
+     a subshell, when the last command of that subshell is not a
+     builtin.  A workaround is to use `exit $?' as the shell builtin.
+
+          $ bash -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true)'
+          hi
+          $ /bin/sh -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true)'
+          $ /bin/sh -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true; exit $?)'
+          hi
+
+     Likewise, older implementations of `bash' failed to preserve `$?'
+     across an exit trap consisting of a single cleanup command.
+
+          $ bash -c 'trap "/bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?
+          2
+          $ bash-2.05b -c 'trap "/bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?
+          0
+          $ bash-2.05b -c 'trap ":; /bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?
+          2
+
+`true'
+     Don't worry: as far as we know `true' is portable.  Nevertheless,
+     it's not always a builtin (e.g., Bash 1.x), and the portable shell
+     community tends to prefer using `:'.  This has a funny side
+     effect: when asked whether `false' is more portable than `true'
+     Alexandre Oliva answered:
+
+          In a sense, yes, because if it doesn't exist, the shell will
+          produce an exit status of failure, which is correct for
+          `false', but not for `true'.
+
+     Remember that even though `:' ignores its arguments, it still takes
+     time to compute those arguments.  It is a good idea to use double
+     quotes around any arguments to `:' to avoid time spent in field
+     splitting and file name expansion.
+
+`unset'
+     In some nonconforming shells (e.g., Solaris 10 `/bin/ksh' and
+     `/usr/xpg4/bin/sh', NetBSD 5.99.43 sh, or Bash 2.05a), `unset FOO'
+     fails when `FOO' is not set.  This can interfere with `set -e'
+     operation.  You can use
+
+          FOO=; unset FOO
+
+     if you are not sure that `FOO' is set.
+
+     A few ancient shells lack `unset' entirely.  For some variables
+     such as `PS1', you can use a neutralizing value instead:
+
+          PS1='$ '
+
+     Usually, shells that do not support `unset' need less effort to
+     make the environment sane, so for example is not a problem if you
+     cannot unset `CDPATH' on those shells.  However, Bash 2.01
+     mishandles `unset MAIL' and `unset MAILPATH' in some cases and
+     dumps core.  So, you should do something like
+
+          ( (unset MAIL) || exit 1) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset MAIL || :
+
+     *Note Special Shell Variables::, for some neutralizing values.
+     Also, see *note Limitations of Builtins: export, for the case of
+     environment variables.
+
+`wait'
+     The exit status of `wait' is not always reliable.

+11.15 Limitations of Usual Tools
+================================
+
+The small set of tools you can expect to find on any machine can still
+include some limitations you should be aware of.
+
+`awk'
+     Don't leave white space before the opening parenthesis in a user
+     function call.  Posix does not allow this and GNU Awk rejects it:
+
+          $ gawk 'function die () { print "Aaaaarg!"  }
+                  BEGIN { die () }'
+          gawk: cmd. line:2:         BEGIN { die () }
+          gawk: cmd. line:2:                      ^ parse error
+          $ gawk 'function die () { print "Aaaaarg!"  }
+                  BEGIN { die() }'
+          Aaaaarg!
+
+     Posix says that if a program contains only `BEGIN' actions, and
+     contains no instances of `getline', then the program merely
+     executes the actions without reading input.  However, traditional
+     Awk implementations (such as Solaris 10 `awk') read and discard
+     input in this case.  Portable scripts can redirect input from
+     `/dev/null' to work around the problem.  For example:
+
+          awk 'BEGIN {print "hello world"}' </dev/null
+
+     Posix says that in an `END' action, `$NF' (and presumably, `$1')
+     retain their value from the last record read, if no intervening
+     `getline' occurred.  However, some implementations (such as
+     Solaris 10 `/usr/bin/awk', `nawk', or Darwin `awk') reset these
+     variables.  A workaround is to use an intermediate variable prior
+     to the `END' block.  For example:
+
+          $ cat end.awk
+          { tmp = $1 }
+          END { print "a", $1, $NF, "b", tmp }
+          $ echo 1 | awk -f end.awk
+          a   b 1
+          $ echo 1 | gawk -f end.awk
+          a 1 1 b 1
+
+     If you want your program to be deterministic, don't depend on `for'
+     on arrays:
+
+          $ cat for.awk
+          END {
+            arr["foo"] = 1
+            arr["bar"] = 1
+            for (i in arr)
+              print i
+          }
+          $ gawk -f for.awk </dev/null
+          foo
+          bar
+          $ nawk -f for.awk </dev/null
+          bar
+          foo
+
+     Some Awk implementations, such as HP-UX 11.0's native one,
+     mishandle anchors:
+
+          $ echo xfoo | $AWK '/foo|^bar/ { print }'
+          $ echo bar | $AWK '/foo|^bar/ { print }'
+          bar
+          $ echo xfoo | $AWK '/^bar|foo/ { print }'
+          xfoo
+          $ echo bar | $AWK '/^bar|foo/ { print }'
+          bar
+
+     Either do not depend on such patterns (i.e., use `/^(.*foo|bar)/',
+     or use a simple test to reject such implementations.
+
+     On `ia64-hp-hpux11.23', Awk mishandles `printf' conversions after
+     `%u':
+
+          $ awk 'BEGIN { printf "%u %d\n", 0, -1 }'
+          0 0
+
+     AIX version 5.2 has an arbitrary limit of 399 on the length of
+     regular expressions and literal strings in an Awk program.
+
+     Traditional Awk implementations derived from Unix version 7, such
+     as Solaris `/bin/awk', have many limitations and do not conform to
+     Posix.  Nowadays `AC_PROG_AWK' (*note Particular Programs::) finds
+     you an Awk that doesn't have these problems, but if for some
+     reason you prefer not to use `AC_PROG_AWK' you may need to address
+     them.  For more detailed descriptions, see *note `awk' language
+     history: (gawk)Language History.
+
+     Traditional Awk does not support multidimensional arrays or
+     user-defined functions.
+
+     Traditional Awk does not support the `-v' option.  You can use
+     assignments after the program instead, e.g., `$AWK '{print v $1}'
+     v=x'; however, don't forget that such assignments are not
+     evaluated until they are encountered (e.g., after any `BEGIN'
+     action).
+
+     Traditional Awk does not support the keywords `delete' or `do'.
+
+     Traditional Awk does not support the expressions `A?B:C', `!A',
+     `A^B', or `A^=B'.
+
+     Traditional Awk does not support the predefined `CONVFMT' or
+     `ENVIRON' variables.
+
+     Traditional Awk supports only the predefined functions `exp',
+     `index', `int', `length', `log', `split', `sprintf', `sqrt', and
+     `substr'.
+
+     Traditional Awk `getline' is not at all compatible with Posix;
+     avoid it.
+
+     Traditional Awk has `for (i in a) ...' but no other uses of the
+     `in' keyword.  For example, it lacks `if (i in a) ...'.
+
+     In code portable to both traditional and modern Awk, `FS' must be a
+     string containing just one ordinary character, and similarly for
+     the field-separator argument to `split'.
+
+     Traditional Awk has a limit of 99 fields in a record.  Since some
+     Awk implementations, like Tru64's, split the input even if you
+     don't refer to any field in the script, to circumvent this
+     problem, set `FS' to an unusual character and use `split'.
+
+     Traditional Awk has a limit of at most 99 bytes in a number
+     formatted by `OFMT'; for example, `OFMT="%.300e"; print 0.1;'
+     typically dumps core.
+
+     The original version of Awk had a limit of at most 99 bytes per
+     `split' field, 99 bytes per `substr' substring, and 99 bytes per
+     run of non-special characters in a `printf' format, but these bugs
+     have been fixed on all practical hosts that we know of.
+
+     HP-UX 11.00 and IRIX 6.5 Awk require that input files have a line
+     length of at most 3070 bytes.
+
+`basename'
+     Not all hosts have a working `basename'.  You can use `expr'
+     instead.
+
+`cat'
+     Don't rely on any option.
+
+`cc'
+     The command `cc -c foo.c' traditionally produces an object file
+     named `foo.o'.  Most compilers allow `-c' to be combined with `-o'
+     to specify a different object file name, but Posix does not
+     require this combination and a few compilers lack support for it.
+     *Note C Compiler::, for how GNU Make tests for this feature with
+     `AC_PROG_CC_C_O'.
+
+     When a compilation such as `cc -o foo foo.c' fails, some compilers
+     (such as CDS on Reliant Unix) leave a `foo.o'.
+
+     HP-UX `cc' doesn't accept `.S' files to preprocess and assemble.
+     `cc -c foo.S' appears to succeed, but in fact does nothing.
+
+     The default executable, produced by `cc foo.c', can be
+
+        * `a.out' -- usual Posix convention.
+
+        * `b.out' -- i960 compilers (including `gcc').
+
+        * `a.exe' -- DJGPP port of `gcc'.
+
+        * `a_out.exe' -- GNV `cc' wrapper for DEC C on OpenVMS.
+
+        * `foo.exe' -- various MS-DOS compilers.
+
+     The C compiler's traditional name is `cc', but other names like
+     `gcc' are common.  Posix 1003.1-2001 specifies the name `c99', but
+     older Posix editions specified `c89' and anyway these standard
+     names are rarely used in practice.  Typically the C compiler is
+     invoked from makefiles that use `$(CC)', so the value of the `CC'
+     make variable selects the compiler name.
+
+`chgrp'
+`chown'
+     It is not portable to change a file's group to a group that the
+     owner does not belong to.
+
+`chmod'
+     Avoid usages like `chmod -w file'; use `chmod a-w file' instead,
+     for two reasons.  First, plain `-w' does not necessarily make the
+     file unwritable, since it does not affect mode bits that
+     correspond to bits in the file mode creation mask.  Second, Posix
+     says that the `-w' might be interpreted as an
+     implementation-specific option, not as a mode; Posix suggests
+     using `chmod -- -w file' to avoid this confusion, but unfortunately
+     `--' does not work on some older hosts.
+
+`cmp'
+     `cmp' performs a raw data comparison of two files, while `diff'
+     compares two text files.  Therefore, if you might compare DOS
+     files, even if only checking whether two files are different, use
+     `diff' to avoid spurious differences due to differences of newline
+     encoding.
+
+`cp'
+     Avoid the `-r' option, since Posix 1003.1-2004 marks it as
+     obsolescent and its behavior on special files is
+     implementation-defined.  Use `-R' instead.  On GNU hosts the two
+     options are equivalent, but on Solaris hosts (for example) `cp -r'
+     reads from pipes instead of replicating them.  AIX 5.3 `cp -R' may
+     corrupt its own memory with some directory hierarchies and error
+     out or dump core:
+
+          mkdir -p 12345678/12345678/12345678/12345678
+          touch 12345678/12345678/x
+          cp -R 12345678 t
+          cp: 0653-440 12345678/12345678/: name too long.
+
+     Some `cp' implementations (e.g., BSD/OS 4.2) do not allow trailing
+     slashes at the end of nonexistent destination directories.  To
+     avoid this problem, omit the trailing slashes.  For example, use
+     `cp -R source /tmp/newdir' rather than `cp -R source /tmp/newdir/'
+     if `/tmp/newdir' does not exist.
+
+     The ancient SunOS 4 `cp' does not support `-f', although its `mv'
+     does.
+
+     Traditionally, file timestamps had 1-second resolution, and `cp
+     -p' copied the timestamps exactly.  However, many modern file
+     systems have timestamps with 1-nanosecond resolution.
+     Unfortunately, some older `cp -p' implementations truncate
+     timestamps when copying files, which can cause the destination
+     file to appear to be older than the source.  The exact amount of
+     truncation depends on the resolution of the system calls that `cp'
+     uses.  Traditionally this was `utime', which has 1-second
+     resolution.  Less-ancient `cp' implementations such as GNU Core
+     Utilities 5.0.91 (2003) use `utimes', which has 1-microsecond
+     resolution.  Modern implementations such as GNU Core Utilities
+     6.12 (2008) can set timestamps to the full nanosecond resolution,
+     using the modern system calls `futimens' and `utimensat' when they
+     are available.  As of 2011, though, many platforms do not yet
+     fully support these new system calls.
+
+     Bob Proulx notes that `cp -p' always _tries_ to copy ownerships.
+     But whether it actually does copy ownerships or not is a system
+     dependent policy decision implemented by the kernel.  If the
+     kernel allows it then it happens.  If the kernel does not allow it
+     then it does not happen.  It is not something `cp' itself has
+     control over.
+
+     In Unix System V any user can chown files to any other user, and
+     System V also has a non-sticky `/tmp'.  That probably derives from
+     the heritage of System V in a business environment without hostile
+     users.  BSD changed this to be a more secure model where only root
+     can `chown' files and a sticky `/tmp' is used.  That undoubtedly
+     derives from the heritage of BSD in a campus environment.
+
+     GNU/Linux and Solaris by default follow BSD, but can be configured
+     to allow a System V style `chown'.  On the other hand, HP-UX
+     follows System V, but can be configured to use the modern security
+     model and disallow `chown'.  Since it is an
+     administrator-configurable parameter you can't use the name of the
+     kernel as an indicator of the behavior.
+
+`date'
+     Some versions of `date' do not recognize special `%' directives,
+     and unfortunately, instead of complaining, they just pass them
+     through, and exit with success:
+
+          $ uname -a
+          OSF1 medusa.sis.pasteur.fr V5.1 732 alpha
+          $ date "+%s"
+          %s
+
+`diff'
+     Option `-u' is nonportable.
+
+     Some implementations, such as Tru64's, fail when comparing to
+     `/dev/null'.  Use an empty file instead.
+
+`dirname'
+     Not all hosts have a working `dirname', and you should instead use
+     `AS_DIRNAME' (*note Programming in M4sh::).  For example:
+
+          dir=`dirname "$file"`       # This is not portable.
+          dir=`AS_DIRNAME(["$file"])` # This is more portable.
+
+`egrep'
+     Posix 1003.1-2001 no longer requires `egrep', but many hosts do
+     not yet support the Posix replacement `grep -E'.  Also, some
+     traditional implementations do not work on long input lines.  To
+     work around these problems, invoke `AC_PROG_EGREP' and then use
+     `$EGREP'.
+
+     Portable extended regular expressions should use `\' only to escape
+     characters in the string `$()*+.?[\^{|'.  For example, `\}' is not
+     portable, even though it typically matches `}'.
+
+     The empty alternative is not portable.  Use `?' instead.  For
+     instance with Digital Unix v5.0:
+
+          > printf "foo\n|foo\n" | $EGREP '^(|foo|bar)$'
+          |foo
+          > printf "bar\nbar|\n" | $EGREP '^(foo|bar|)$'
+          bar|
+          > printf "foo\nfoo|\n|bar\nbar\n" | $EGREP '^(foo||bar)$'
+          foo
+          |bar
+
+     `$EGREP' also suffers the limitations of `grep' (*note Limitations
+     of Usual Tools: grep.).
+
+`expr'
+     Not all implementations obey the Posix rule that `--' separates
+     options from arguments; likewise, not all implementations provide
+     the extension to Posix that the first argument can be treated as
+     part of a valid expression rather than an invalid option if it
+     begins with `-'.  When performing arithmetic, use `expr 0 + $var'
+     if `$var' might be a negative number, to keep `expr' from
+     interpreting it as an option.
+
+     No `expr' keyword starts with `X', so use `expr X"WORD" :
+     'XREGEX'' to keep `expr' from misinterpreting WORD.
+
+     Don't use `length', `substr', `match' and `index'.
+
+`expr' (`|')
+     You can use `|'.  Although Posix does require that `expr '''
+     return the empty string, it does not specify the result when you
+     `|' together the empty string (or zero) with the empty string.  For
+     example:
+
+          expr '' \| ''
+
+     Posix 1003.2-1992 returns the empty string for this case, but
+     traditional Unix returns `0' (Solaris is one such example).  In
+     Posix 1003.1-2001, the specification was changed to match
+     traditional Unix's behavior (which is bizarre, but it's too late
+     to fix this).  Please note that the same problem does arise when
+     the empty string results from a computation, as in:
+
+          expr bar : foo \| foo : bar
+
+     Avoid this portability problem by avoiding the empty string.
+
+`expr' (`:')
+     Portable `expr' regular expressions should use `\' to escape only
+     characters in the string `$()*.0123456789[\^n{}'.  For example,
+     alternation, `\|', is common but Posix does not require its
+     support, so it should be avoided in portable scripts.  Similarly,
+     `\+' and `\?' should be avoided.
+
+     Portable `expr' regular expressions should not begin with `^'.
+     Patterns are automatically anchored so leading `^' is not needed
+     anyway.
+
+     On the other hand, the behavior of the `$' anchor is not portable
+     on multi-line strings.  Posix is ambiguous whether the anchor
+     applies to each line, as was done in older versions of the GNU
+     Core Utilities, or whether it applies only to the end of the
+     overall string, as in Coreutils 6.0 and most other implementations.
+
+          $ baz='foo
+          > bar'
+          $ expr "X$baz" : 'X\(foo\)$'
+
+          $ expr-5.97 "X$baz" : 'X\(foo\)$'
+          foo
+
+     The Posix standard is ambiguous as to whether `expr 'a' : '\(b\)''
+     outputs `0' or the empty string.  In practice, it outputs the
+     empty string on most platforms, but portable scripts should not
+     assume this.  For instance, the QNX 4.25 native `expr' returns `0'.
+
+     One might think that a way to get a uniform behavior would be to
+     use the empty string as a default value:
+
+          expr a : '\(b\)' \| ''
+
+     Unfortunately this behaves exactly as the original expression; see
+     the `expr' (`|') entry for more information.
+
+     Some ancient `expr' implementations (e.g., SunOS 4 `expr' and
+     Solaris 8 `/usr/ucb/expr') have a silly length limit that causes
+     `expr' to fail if the matched substring is longer than 120 bytes.
+     In this case, you might want to fall back on `echo|sed' if `expr'
+     fails.  Nowadays this is of practical importance only for the rare
+     installer who mistakenly puts `/usr/ucb' before `/usr/bin' in
+     `PATH'.
+
+     On Mac OS X 10.4, `expr' mishandles the pattern `[^-]' in some
+     cases.  For example, the command
+          expr Xpowerpc-apple-darwin8.1.0 : 'X[^-]*-[^-]*-\(.*\)'
+
+     outputs `apple-darwin8.1.0' rather than the correct `darwin8.1.0'.
+     This particular case can be worked around by substituting `[^--]'
+     for `[^-]'.
+
+     Don't leave, there is some more!
+
+     The QNX 4.25 `expr', in addition of preferring `0' to the empty
+     string, has a funny behavior in its exit status: it's always 1
+     when parentheses are used!
+
+          $ val=`expr 'a' : 'a'`; echo "$?: $val"
+          0: 1
+          $ val=`expr 'a' : 'b'`; echo "$?: $val"
+          1: 0
+
+          $ val=`expr 'a' : '\(a\)'`; echo "?: $val"
+          1: a
+          $ val=`expr 'a' : '\(b\)'`; echo "?: $val"
+          1: 0
+
+     In practice this can be a big problem if you are ready to catch
+     failures of `expr' programs with some other method (such as using
+     `sed'), since you may get twice the result.  For instance
+
+          $ expr 'a' : '\(a\)' || echo 'a' | sed 's/^\(a\)$/\1/'
+
+     outputs `a' on most hosts, but `aa' on QNX 4.25.  A simple
+     workaround consists of testing `expr' and using a variable set to
+     `expr' or to `false' according to the result.
+
+     Tru64 `expr' incorrectly treats the result as a number, if it can
+     be interpreted that way:
+
+          $ expr 00001 : '.*\(...\)'
+          1
+
+     On HP-UX 11, `expr' only supports a single sub-expression.
+
+          $ expr 'Xfoo' : 'X\(f\(oo\)*\)$'
+          expr: More than one '\(' was used.
+
+`fgrep'
+     Posix 1003.1-2001 no longer requires `fgrep', but many hosts do
+     not yet support the Posix replacement `grep -F'.  Also, some
+     traditional implementations do not work on long input lines.  To
+     work around these problems, invoke `AC_PROG_FGREP' and then use
+     `$FGREP'.
+
+     Tru64/OSF 5.1 `fgrep' does not match an empty pattern.
+
+`find'
+     The option `-maxdepth' seems to be GNU specific.  Tru64 v5.1,
+     NetBSD 1.5 and Solaris `find' commands do not understand it.
+
+     The replacement of `{}' is guaranteed only if the argument is
+     exactly _{}_, not if it's only a part of an argument.  For
+     instance on DU, and HP-UX 10.20 and HP-UX 11:
+
+          $ touch foo
+          $ find . -name foo -exec echo "{}-{}" \;
+          {}-{}
+
+     while GNU `find' reports `./foo-./foo'.
+
+`grep'
+     Portable scripts can rely on the `grep' options `-c', `-l', `-n',
+     and `-v', but should avoid other options.  For example, don't use
+     `-w', as Posix does not require it and Irix 6.5.16m's `grep' does
+     not support it.  Also, portable scripts should not combine `-c'
+     with `-l', as Posix does not allow this.
+
+     Some of the options required by Posix are not portable in practice.
+     Don't use `grep -q' to suppress output, because many `grep'
+     implementations (e.g., Solaris) do not support `-q'.  Don't use
+     `grep -s' to suppress output either, because Posix says `-s' does
+     not suppress output, only some error messages; also, the `-s'
+     option of traditional `grep' behaved like `-q' does in most modern
+     implementations.  Instead, redirect the standard output and
+     standard error (in case the file doesn't exist) of `grep' to
+     `/dev/null'.  Check the exit status of `grep' to determine whether
+     it found a match.
+
+     The QNX4 implementation fails to count lines with `grep -c '$'',
+     but works with `grep -c '^''.  Other alternatives for counting
+     lines are to use `sed -n '$='' or `wc -l'.
+
+     Some traditional `grep' implementations do not work on long input
+     lines.  On AIX the default `grep' silently truncates long lines on
+     the input before matching.
+
+     Also, many implementations do not support multiple regexps with
+     `-e': they either reject `-e' entirely (e.g., Solaris) or honor
+     only the last pattern (e.g., IRIX 6.5 and NeXT).  To work around
+     these problems, invoke `AC_PROG_GREP' and then use `$GREP'.
+
+     Another possible workaround for the multiple `-e' problem is to
+     separate the patterns by newlines, for example:
+
+          grep 'foo
+          bar' in.txt
+
+     except that this fails with traditional `grep' implementations and
+     with OpenBSD 3.8 `grep'.
+
+     Traditional `grep' implementations (e.g., Solaris) do not support
+     the `-E' or `-F' options.  To work around these problems, invoke
+     `AC_PROG_EGREP' and then use `$EGREP', and similarly for
+     `AC_PROG_FGREP' and `$FGREP'.  Even if you are willing to require
+     support for Posix `grep', your script should not use both `-E' and
+     `-F', since Posix does not allow this combination.
+
+     Portable `grep' regular expressions should use `\' only to escape
+     characters in the string `$()*.0123456789[\^{}'.  For example,
+     alternation, `\|', is common but Posix does not require its
+     support in basic regular expressions, so it should be avoided in
+     portable scripts.  Solaris and HP-UX `grep' do not support it.
+     Similarly, the following escape sequences should also be avoided:
+     `\<', `\>', `\+', `\?', `\`', `\'', `\B', `\b', `\S', `\s', `\W',
+     and `\w'.
+
+     Posix does not specify the behavior of `grep' on binary files.  An
+     example where this matters is using BSD `grep' to search text that
+     includes embedded ANSI escape sequences for colored output to
+     terminals (`\033[m' is the sequence to restore normal output); the
+     behavior depends on whether input is seekable:
+
+          $ printf 'esc\033[mape\n' > sample
+          $ grep . sample
+          Binary file sample matches
+          $ cat sample | grep .
+          escape
+
+`join'
+     Solaris 8 `join' has bugs when the second operand is standard
+     input, and when standard input is a pipe.  For example, the
+     following shell script causes Solaris 8 `join' to loop forever:
+
+          cat >file <<'EOF'
+          1 x
+          2 y
+          EOF
+          cat file | join file -
+
+     Use `join - file' instead.
+
+     On NetBSD, `join -a 1 file1 file2' mistakenly behaves like `join
+     -a 1 -a 2 1 file1 file2', resulting in a usage warning; the
+     workaround is to use `join -a1 file1 file2' instead.
+
+`ln'
+     Don't rely on `ln' having a `-f' option.  Symbolic links are not
+     available on old systems; use `$(LN_S)' as a portable substitute.
+
+     For versions of the DJGPP before 2.04, `ln' emulates symbolic links
+     to executables by generating a stub that in turn calls the real
+     program.  This feature also works with nonexistent files like in
+     the Posix spec.  So `ln -s file link' generates `link.exe', which
+     attempts to call `file.exe' if run.  But this feature only works
+     for executables, so `cp -p' is used instead for these systems.
+     DJGPP versions 2.04 and later have full support for symbolic links.
+
+`ls'
+     The portable options are `-acdilrtu'.  Current practice is for
+     `-l' to output both owner and group, even though ancient versions
+     of `ls' omitted the group.
+
+     On ancient hosts, `ls foo' sent the diagnostic `foo not found' to
+     standard output if `foo' did not exist.  Hence a shell command
+     like `sources=`ls *.c 2>/dev/null`' did not always work, since it
+     was equivalent to `sources='*.c not found'' in the absence of `.c'
+     files.  This is no longer a practical problem, since current `ls'
+     implementations send diagnostics to standard error.
+
+     The behavior of `ls' on a directory that is being concurrently
+     modified is not always predictable, because of a data race where
+     cached information returned by `readdir' does not match the current
+     directory state.  In fact, MacOS 10.5 has an intermittent bug where
+     `readdir', and thus `ls', sometimes lists a file more than once if
+     other files were added or removed from the directory immediately
+     prior to the `ls' call.  Since `ls' already sorts its output, the
+     duplicate entries can be avoided by piping the results through
+     `uniq'.
+
+`mkdir'
+     No `mkdir' option is portable to older systems.  Instead of `mkdir
+     -p FILE-NAME', you should use `AS_MKDIR_P(FILE-NAME)' (*note
+     Programming in M4sh::) or `AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' (*note Particular
+     Programs::).
+
+     Combining the `-m' and `-p' options, as in `mkdir -m go-w -p DIR',
+     often leads to trouble.  FreeBSD `mkdir' incorrectly attempts to
+     change the permissions of DIR even if it already exists.  HP-UX
+     11.23 and IRIX 6.5 `mkdir' often assign the wrong permissions to
+     any newly-created parents of DIR.
+
+     Posix does not clearly specify whether `mkdir -p foo' should
+     succeed when `foo' is a symbolic link to an already-existing
+     directory.  The GNU Core Utilities 5.1.0 `mkdir' succeeds, but
+     Solaris `mkdir' fails.
+
+     Traditional `mkdir -p' implementations suffer from race conditions.
+     For example, if you invoke `mkdir -p a/b' and `mkdir -p a/c' at
+     the same time, both processes might detect that `a' is missing,
+     one might create `a', then the other might try to create `a' and
+     fail with a `File exists' diagnostic.  The GNU Core Utilities
+     (`fileutils' version 4.1), FreeBSD 5.0, NetBSD 2.0.2, and OpenBSD
+     2.4 are known to be race-free when two processes invoke `mkdir -p'
+     simultaneously, but earlier versions are vulnerable.  Solaris
+     `mkdir' is still vulnerable as of Solaris 10, and other
+     traditional Unix systems are probably vulnerable too.  This
+     possible race is harmful in parallel builds when several Make
+     rules call `mkdir -p' to construct directories.  You may use
+     `install-sh -d' as a safe replacement, provided this script is
+     recent enough; the copy shipped with Autoconf 2.60 and Automake
+     1.10 is OK, but copies from older versions are vulnerable.
+
+`mkfifo'
+`mknod'
+     The GNU Coding Standards state that `mknod' is safe to use on
+     platforms where it has been tested to exist; but it is generally
+     portable only for creating named FIFOs, since device numbers are
+     platform-specific.  Autotest uses `mkfifo' to implement parallel
+     testsuites.  Posix states that behavior is unspecified when
+     opening a named FIFO for both reading and writing; on at least
+     Cygwin, this results in failure on any attempt to read or write to
+     that file descriptor.
+
+`mktemp'
+     Shell scripts can use temporary files safely with `mktemp', but it
+     does not exist on all systems.  A portable way to create a safe
+     temporary file name is to create a temporary directory with mode
+     700 and use a file inside this directory.  Both methods prevent
+     attackers from gaining control, though `mktemp' is far less likely
+     to fail gratuitously under attack.
+
+     Here is sample code to create a new temporary directory `$dir'
+     safely:
+
+          # Create a temporary directory $dir in $TMPDIR (default /tmp).
+          # Use mktemp if possible; otherwise fall back on mkdir,
+          # with $RANDOM to make collisions less likely.
+          : "${TMPDIR:=/tmp}"
+          {
+            dir=`
+              (umask 077 && mktemp -d "$TMPDIR/fooXXXXXX") 2>/dev/null
+            ` &&
+            test -d "$dir"
+          } || {
+            dir=$TMPDIR/foo$$-$RANDOM
+            (umask 077 && mkdir "$dir")
+          } || exit $?
+
+`mv'
+     The only portable options are `-f' and `-i'.
+
+     Moving individual files between file systems is portable (it was
+     in Unix version 6), but it is not always atomic: when doing `mv
+     new existing', there's a critical section where neither the old
+     nor the new version of `existing' actually exists.
+
+     On some systems moving files from `/tmp' can sometimes cause
+     undesirable (but perfectly valid) warnings, even if you created
+     these files.  This is because `/tmp' belongs to a group that
+     ordinary users are not members of, and files created in `/tmp'
+     inherit the group of `/tmp'.  When the file is copied, `mv' issues
+     a diagnostic without failing:
+
+          $ touch /tmp/foo
+          $ mv /tmp/foo .
+          error-->mv: ./foo: set owner/group (was: 100/0): Operation not permitted
+          $ echo $?
+          0
+          $ ls foo
+          foo
+
+     This annoying behavior conforms to Posix, unfortunately.
+
+     Moving directories across mount points is not portable, use `cp'
+     and `rm'.
+
+     DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, and do not
+     support commands like `mv foo bar >foo', even though this is
+     perfectly portable among Posix hosts.
+
+`od'
+     In Mac OS X 10.3, `od' does not support the standard Posix options
+     `-A', `-j', `-N', or `-t', or the XSI option `-s'.  The only
+     supported Posix option is `-v', and the only supported XSI options
+     are those in `-bcdox'.  The BSD `hexdump' program can be used
+     instead.
+
+     This problem no longer exists in Mac OS X 10.4.3.
+
+`rm'
+     The `-f' and `-r' options are portable.
+
+     It is not portable to invoke `rm' without options or operands.  On
+     the other hand, Posix now requires `rm -f' to silently succeed
+     when there are no operands (useful for constructs like `rm -rf
+     $filelist' without first checking if `$filelist' was empty).  But
+     this was not always portable; at least NetBSD `rm' built before
+     2008 would fail with a diagnostic.
+
+     A file might not be removed even if its parent directory is
+     writable and searchable.  Many Posix hosts cannot remove a mount
+     point, a named stream, a working directory, or a last link to a
+     file that is being executed.
+
+     DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, and do not
+     support commands like `rm foo >foo', even though this is perfectly
+     portable among Posix hosts.
+
+`rmdir'
+     Just as with `rm', some platforms refuse to remove a working
+     directory.
+
+`sed'
+     Patterns should not include the separator (unless escaped), even
+     as part of a character class.  In conformance with Posix, the Cray
+     `sed' rejects `s/[^/]*$//': use `s%[^/]*$%%'.  Even when escaped,
+     patterns should not include separators that are also used as `sed'
+     metacharacters.  For example, GNU sed 4.0.9 rejects
+     `s,x\{1\,\},,', while sed 4.1 strips the backslash before the comma
+     before evaluating the basic regular expression.
+
+     Avoid empty patterns within parentheses (i.e., `\(\)').  Posix does
+     not require support for empty patterns, and Unicos 9 `sed' rejects
+     them.
+
+     Unicos 9 `sed' loops endlessly on patterns like `.*\n.*'.
+
+     Sed scripts should not use branch labels longer than 7 characters
+     and should not contain comments; AIX 5.3 `sed' rejects indented
+     comments.  HP-UX sed has a limit of 99 commands (not counting `:'
+     commands) and 48 labels, which cannot be circumvented by using
+     more than one script file.  It can execute up to 19 reads with the
+     `r' command per cycle.  Solaris `/usr/ucb/sed' rejects usages that
+     exceed a limit of about 6000 bytes for the internal representation
+     of commands.
+
+     Avoid redundant `;', as some `sed' implementations, such as NetBSD
+     1.4.2's, incorrectly try to interpret the second `;' as a command:
+
+          $ echo a | sed 's/x/x/;;s/x/x/'
+          sed: 1: "s/x/x/;;s/x/x/": invalid command code ;
+
+     Some `sed' implementations have a buffer limited to 4000 bytes,
+     and this limits the size of input lines, output lines, and internal
+     buffers that can be processed portably.  Likewise, not all `sed'
+     implementations can handle embedded `NUL' or a missing trailing
+     newline.
+
+     Remember that ranges within a bracket expression of a regular
+     expression are only well-defined in the `C' (or `POSIX') locale.
+     Meanwhile, support for character classes like `[[:upper:]]' is not
+     yet universal, so if you cannot guarantee the setting of `LC_ALL',
+     it is better to spell out a range `[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ]'
+     than to rely on `[A-Z]'.
+
+     Additionally, Posix states that regular expressions are only
+     well-defined on characters.  Unfortunately, there exist platforms
+     such as MacOS X 10.5 where not all 8-bit byte values are valid
+     characters, even though that platform has a single-byte `C'
+     locale.  And Posix allows the existence of a multi-byte `C'
+     locale, although that does not yet appear to be a common
+     implementation.  At any rate, it means that not all bytes will be
+     matched by the regular expression `.':
+
+          $ printf '\200\n' | LC_ALL=C sed -n /./p | wc -l
+          0
+          $ printf '\200\n' | LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1 sed -n /./p | wc -l
+          1
+
+     Portable `sed' regular expressions should use `\' only to escape
+     characters in the string `$()*.0123456789[\^n{}'.  For example,
+     alternation, `\|', is common but Posix does not require its
+     support, so it should be avoided in portable scripts.  Solaris
+     `sed' does not support alternation; e.g., `sed '/a\|b/d'' deletes
+     only lines that contain the literal string `a|b'.  Similarly, `\+'
+     and `\?' should be avoided.
+
+     Anchors (`^' and `$') inside groups are not portable.
+
+     Nested parentheses in patterns (e.g., `\(\(a*\)b*)\)') are quite
+     portable to current hosts, but was not supported by some ancient
+     `sed' implementations like SVR3.
+
+     Some `sed' implementations, e.g., Solaris, restrict the special
+     role of the asterisk `*' to one-character regular expressions and
+     back-references, and the special role of interval expressions
+     `\{M\}', `\{M,\}', or `\{M,N\}' to one-character regular
+     expressions.  This may lead to unexpected behavior:
+
+          $ echo '1*23*4' | /usr/bin/sed 's/\(.\)*/x/g'
+          x2x4
+          $ echo '1*23*4' | /usr/xpg4/bin/sed 's/\(.\)*/x/g'
+          x
+
+     The `-e' option is mostly portable.  However, its argument cannot
+     start with `a', `c', or `i', as this runs afoul of a Tru64 5.1 bug.
+     Also, its argument cannot be empty, as this fails on AIX 5.3.
+     Some people prefer to use `-e':
+
+          sed -e 'COMMAND-1' \
+              -e 'COMMAND-2'
+
+     as opposed to the equivalent:
+
+          sed '
+            COMMAND-1
+            COMMAND-2
+          '
+
+     The following usage is sometimes equivalent:
+
+          sed 'COMMAND-1;COMMAND-2'
+
+     but Posix says that this use of a semicolon has undefined effect if
+     COMMAND-1's verb is `{', `a', `b', `c', `i', `r', `t', `w', `:',
+     or `#', so you should use semicolon only with simple scripts that
+     do not use these verbs.
+
+     Posix up to the 2008 revision requires the argument of the `-e'
+     option to be a syntactically complete script.  GNU `sed' allows to
+     pass multiple script fragments, each as argument of a separate
+     `-e' option, that are then combined, with newlines between the
+     fragments, and a future Posix revision may allow this as well.
+     This approach is not portable with script fragments ending in
+     backslash; for example, the `sed' programs on Solaris 10, HP-UX
+     11, and AIX don't allow splitting in this case:
+
+          $ echo a | sed -n -e 'i\
+          0'
+          0
+          $ echo a | sed -n -e 'i\' -e 0
+          Unrecognized command: 0
+
+     In practice, however, this technique of joining fragments through
+     `-e' works for multiple `sed' functions within `{' and `}', even
+     if that is not specified by Posix:
+
+          $ echo a | sed -n -e '/a/{' -e s/a/b/ -e p -e '}'
+          b
+
+     Commands inside { } brackets are further restricted.  Posix 2008
+     says that they cannot be preceded by addresses, `!', or `;', and
+     that each command must be followed immediately by a newline,
+     without any intervening blanks or semicolons.  The closing bracket
+     must be alone on a line, other than white space preceding or
+     following it.  However, a future version of Posix may standardize
+     the use of addresses within brackets.
+
+     Contrary to yet another urban legend, you may portably use `&' in
+     the replacement part of the `s' command to mean "what was
+     matched".  All descendants of Unix version 7 `sed' (at least; we
+     don't have first hand experience with older `sed' implementations)
+     have supported it.
+
+     Posix requires that you must not have any white space between `!'
+     and the following command.  It is OK to have blanks between the
+     address and the `!'.  For instance, on Solaris:
+
+          $ echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/ ! p'
+          error-->Unrecognized command: /bar/ ! p
+          $ echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/! p'
+          error-->Unrecognized command: /bar/! p
+          $ echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/ !p'
+          foo
+
+     Posix also says that you should not combine `!' and `;'.  If you
+     use `!', it is best to put it on a command that is delimited by
+     newlines rather than `;'.
+
+     Also note that Posix requires that the `b', `t', `r', and `w'
+     commands be followed by exactly one space before their argument.
+     On the other hand, no white space is allowed between `:' and the
+     subsequent label name.
+
+     If a sed script is specified on the command line and ends in an
+     `a', `c', or `i' command, the last line of inserted text should be
+     followed by a newline.  Otherwise some `sed' implementations
+     (e.g., OpenBSD 3.9) do not append a newline to the inserted text.
+
+     Many `sed' implementations (e.g., MacOS X 10.4, OpenBSD 3.9,
+     Solaris 10 `/usr/ucb/sed') strip leading white space from the text
+     of `a', `c', and `i' commands.  Prepend a backslash to work around
+     this incompatibility with Posix:
+
+          $ echo flushleft | sed 'a\
+          >    indented
+          > '
+          flushleft
+          indented
+          $ echo foo | sed 'a\
+          > \   indented
+          > '
+          flushleft
+             indented
+
+     Posix requires that with an empty regular expression, the last
+     non-empty regular expression from either an address specification
+     or substitution command is applied.  However, busybox 1.6.1
+     complains when using a substitution command with a replacement
+     containing a back-reference to an empty regular expression; the
+     workaround is repeating the regular expression.
+
+          $ echo abc | busybox sed '/a\(b\)c/ s//\1/'
+          sed: No previous regexp.
+          $ echo abc | busybox sed '/a\(b\)c/ s/a\(b\)c/\1/'
+          b
+
+`sed' (`t')
+     Some old systems have `sed' that "forget" to reset their `t' flag
+     when starting a new cycle.  For instance on MIPS RISC/OS, and on
+     IRIX 5.3, if you run the following `sed' script (the line numbers
+     are not actual part of the texts):
+
+          s/keep me/kept/g  # a
+          t end             # b
+          s/.*/deleted/g    # c
+          :end              # d
+
+     on
+
+          delete me         # 1
+          delete me         # 2
+          keep me           # 3
+          delete me         # 4
+
+     you get
+
+          deleted
+          delete me
+          kept
+          deleted
+
+     instead of
+
+          deleted
+          deleted
+          kept
+          deleted
+
+     Why?  When processing line 1, (c) matches, therefore sets the `t'
+     flag, and the output is produced.  When processing line 2, the `t'
+     flag is still set (this is the bug).  Command (a) fails to match,
+     but `sed' is not supposed to clear the `t' flag when a
+     substitution fails.  Command (b) sees that the flag is set,
+     therefore it clears it, and jumps to (d), hence you get `delete me'
+     instead of `deleted'.  When processing line (3), `t' is clear, (a)
+     matches, so the flag is set, hence (b) clears the flags and jumps.
+     Finally, since the flag is clear, line 4 is processed properly.
+
+     There are two things one should remember about `t' in `sed'.
+     Firstly, always remember that `t' jumps if _some_ substitution
+     succeeded, not only the immediately preceding substitution.
+     Therefore, always use a fake `t clear' followed by a `:clear' on
+     the next line, to reset the `t' flag where needed.
+
+     Secondly, you cannot rely on `sed' to clear the flag at each new
+     cycle.
+
+     One portable implementation of the script above is:
+
+          t clear
+          :clear
+          s/keep me/kept/g
+          t end
+          s/.*/deleted/g
+          :end
+
+`sleep'
+     Using `sleep' is generally portable.  However, remember that
+     adding a `sleep' to work around timestamp issues, with a minimum
+     granularity of one second, doesn't scale well for parallel builds
+     on modern machines with sub-second process completion.
+
+`sort'
+     Remember that sort order is influenced by the current locale.
+     Inside `configure', the C locale is in effect, but in Makefile
+     snippets, you may need to specify `LC_ALL=C sort'.
+
+`tar'
+     There are multiple file formats for `tar'; if you use Automake,
+     the macro `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' has some options controlling which
+     level of portability to use.
+
+`touch'
+     If you specify the desired timestamp (e.g., with the `-r' option),
+     older `touch' implementations use the `utime' or `utimes' system
+     call, which can result in the same kind of timestamp truncation
+     problems that `cp -p' has.
+
+     On ancient BSD systems, `touch' or any command that results in an
+     empty file does not update the timestamps, so use a command like
+     `echo' as a workaround.  Also, GNU `touch' 3.16r (and presumably
+     all before that) fails to work on SunOS 4.1.3 when the empty file
+     is on an NFS-mounted 4.2 volume.  However, these problems are no
+     longer of practical concern.
+
+`tr'
+     Not all versions of `tr' handle all backslash character escapes.
+     For example, Solaris 10 `/usr/ucb/tr' falls over, even though
+     Solaris contains more modern `tr' in other locations.  Using octal
+     escapes is more portable for carriage returns, since `\015' is the
+     same for both ASCII and EBCDIC, and since use of literal carriage
+     returns in scripts causes a number of other problems.  But for
+     other characters, like newline, using octal escapes ties the
+     operation to ASCII, so it is better to use literal characters.
+
+          $ { echo moon; echo light; } | /usr/ucb/tr -d '\n' ; echo
+          moo
+          light
+          $ { echo moon; echo light; } | /usr/bin/tr -d '\n' ; echo

+          '; { echo moon; echo light; } | /usr/ucb/tr -d "$nl" ; echo
+          moonlight
+
+     Not all versions of `tr' recognize direct ranges of characters: at
+     least Solaris `/usr/bin/tr' still fails to do so.  But you can use
+     `/usr/xpg4/bin/tr' instead, or add brackets (which in Posix
+     transliterate to themselves).
+
+          $ echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/tr a-z A-Z
+          HAZy FAntAZy
+          $ echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/tr '[a-z]' '[A-Z]'

+          $ echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/xpg4/bin/tr a-z A-Z
+          HAZY FANTAZY
+
+     When providing two arguments, be sure the second string is at
+     least as long as the first.
+
+          $ echo abc | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr bc d
+          adc
+          $ echo abc | coreutils/tr bc d
+          add
+
+     Posix requires `tr' to operate on binary files.  But at least
+     Solaris `/usr/ucb/tr' and `/usr/bin/tr' silently discard `NUL' in
+     the input prior to doing any translation.  When using `tr' to
+     process a binary file that may contain `NUL' bytes, it is
+     necessary to use `/usr/xpg4/bin/tr' instead, or `/usr/xpg6/bin/tr'
+     if that is available.
+
+          $ printf 'a\0b' | /usr/ucb/tr x x | od -An -tx1
+           61 62
+          $ printf 'a\0b' | /usr/bin/tr x x | od -An -tx1

+          $ printf 'a\0b' | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr x x | od -An -tx1
+           61 00 62
+
+     Solaris `/usr/ucb/tr' additionally fails to handle `\0' as the
+     octal escape for `NUL'.
+
+          $ printf 'abc' | /usr/ucb/tr 'bc' '\0d' | od -An -tx1
+           61 62 63

+12.1 `$<' in Ordinary Make Rules
+================================
+
+Posix says that the `$<' construct in makefiles can be used only in
+inference rules and in the `.DEFAULT' rule; its meaning in ordinary
+rules is unspecified.  Solaris `make' for instance replaces it with the
+empty string.  OpenBSD (3.0 and later) `make' diagnoses these uses and
+errors out.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Failure in Make Rules,  Next: Special Chars in Names,  Prev: $< in Ordinary Make Rules,  Up: Portable Make
+
+12.2 Failure in Make Rules
+==========================
+
+Posix 2008 requires that `make' must invoke each command with the
+equivalent of a `sh -e -c' subshell, which causes the subshell to exit
+immediately if a subsidiary simple-command fails, although not all
+`make' implementations have historically followed this rule.  For
+example, the command `touch T; rm -f U' may attempt to remove `U' even
+if the `touch' fails, although this is not permitted with Posix make.
+One way to work around failures in simple commands is to reword them so
+that they always succeed, e.g., `touch T || :; rm -f U'.  However, even
+this approach can run into common bugs in BSD implementations of the
+`-e' option of `sh' and `set' (*note Limitations of Shell Builtins:
+set.), so if you are worried about porting to buggy BSD shells it may
+be simpler to migrate complicated `make' actions into separate scripts.
+

+
+12.3 Special Characters in Make Macro Names
+===========================================
+
+Posix limits macro names to nonempty strings containing only ASCII
+letters and digits, `.', and `_'.  Many `make' implementations allow a
+wider variety of characters, but portable makefiles should avoid them.
+It is portable to start a name with a special character, e.g.,
+`$(.FOO)'.
+
+   Some ancient `make' implementations don't support leading
+underscores in macro names.  An example is NEWS-OS 4.2R.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     _am_include = #
+     _am_quote =
+     all:; @echo this is test
+     $ make
+     Make: Must be a separator on rules line 2.  Stop.
+     $ cat Makefile2
+     am_include = #
+     am_quote =
+     all:; @echo this is test
+     $ make -f Makefile2
+     this is test
+
+However, this problem is no longer of practical concern.

+
+12.4 Backslash-Newline Before Empty Lines
+=========================================
+
+A bug in Bash 2.03 can cause problems if a Make rule contains a
+backslash-newline followed by line that expands to nothing.  For
+example, on Solaris 8:
+
+     SHELL = /bin/bash
+     EMPTY =
+     foo:
+     	touch foo \
+     	$(EMPTY)
+
+executes
+
+     /bin/bash -c 'touch foo \
+     '
+
+which fails with a syntax error, due to the Bash bug.  To avoid this
+problem, avoid nullable macros in the last line of a multiline command.
+
+   On some versions of HP-UX, `make' reads multiple newlines following
+a backslash, continuing to the next non-empty line.  For example,
+
+     FOO = one \
+
+     BAR = two
+
+     test:
+             : FOO is "$(FOO)"
+             : BAR is "$(BAR)"
+
+shows `FOO' equal to `one BAR = two'.  Other implementations sensibly
+let a backslash continue only to the immediately following line.
+

+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Backslash-Newline Comments,  Next: Long Lines in Makefiles,  Prev: Backslash-Newline-Empty,  Up: Portable Make
+
+12.5 Backslash-Newline in Make Comments
+=======================================
+
+According to Posix, Make comments start with `#' and continue until an
+unescaped newline is reached.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     # A = foo \
+           bar \
+           baz
+
+     all:
+             @echo ok
+     $ make   # GNU make
+     ok
+
+However this is not always the case.  Some implementations discard
+everything from `#' through the end of the line, ignoring any trailing
+backslash.
+
+     $ pmake  # BSD make
+     "Makefile", line 3: Need an operator
+     Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
+
+Therefore, if you want to comment out a multi-line definition, prefix
+each line with `#', not only the first.
+
+     # A = foo \
+     #     bar \
+     #     baz

+12.6 Long Lines in Makefiles

+exit with `Line too long' diagnostics.

+
+12.7 `make macro=value' and Submakes
+====================================
+
+A command-line variable definition such as `foo=bar' overrides any
+definition of `foo' in a makefile.  Some `make' implementations (such
+as GNU `make') propagate this override to subsidiary invocations of
+`make'.  Some other implementations do not pass the substitution along
+to submakes.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     foo = foo
+     one:
+             @echo $(foo)
+             $(MAKE) two
+     two:
+             @echo $(foo)
+     $ make foo=bar            # GNU make 3.79.1
+     bar
+     make two
+     make[1]: Entering directory `/home/adl'
+     bar
+     make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/adl'
+     $ pmake foo=bar           # BSD make
+     bar
+     pmake two
+     foo
+
+   You have a few possibilities if you do want the `foo=bar' override
+to propagate to submakes.  One is to use the `-e' option, which causes
+all environment variables to have precedence over the makefile macro
+definitions, and declare foo as an environment variable:
+
+     $ env foo=bar make -e
+
+   The `-e' option is propagated to submakes automatically, and since
+the environment is inherited between `make' invocations, the `foo'
+macro is overridden in submakes as expected.
+
+   This syntax (`foo=bar make -e') is portable only when used outside
+of a makefile, for instance from a script or from the command line.
+When run inside a `make' rule, GNU `make' 3.80 and prior versions
+forget to propagate the `-e' option to submakes.
+
+   Moreover, using `-e' could have unexpected side effects if your
+environment contains some other macros usually defined by the makefile.
+(See also the note about `make -e' and `SHELL' below.)
+
+   If you can foresee all macros that a user might want to override,
+then you can propagate them to submakes manually, from your makefile:
+
+     foo = foo
+     one:
+             @echo $(foo)
+             $(MAKE) foo=$(foo) two
+     two:
+             @echo $(foo)
+
+   Another way to propagate a variable to submakes in a portable way is
+to expand an extra variable in every invocation of `$(MAKE)' within
+your makefile:
+
+     foo = foo
+     one:
+             @echo $(foo)
+             $(MAKE) $(SUBMAKEFLAGS) two
+     two:
+             @echo $(foo)
+
+   Users must be aware that this technique is in use to take advantage
+of it, e.g. with `make foo=bar SUBMAKEFLAGS='foo=bar'', but it allows
+any macro to be overridden.  Makefiles generated by `automake' use this
+technique, expanding `$(AM_MAKEFLAGS)' on the command lines of submakes
+(*note Automake: (automake)Subdirectories.).

+
+12.8 The Make Macro MAKEFLAGS
+=============================
+
+Posix requires `make' to use `MAKEFLAGS' to affect the current and
+recursive invocations of make, but allows implementations several
+formats for the variable.  It is tricky to parse `$MAKEFLAGS' to
+determine whether `-s' for silent execution or `-k' for continued
+execution are in effect.  For example, you cannot assume that the first
+space-separated word in `$MAKEFLAGS' contains single-letter options,
+since in the Cygwin version of GNU `make' it is either `--unix' or
+`--win32' with the second word containing single-letter options.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     all:
+             @echo MAKEFLAGS = $(MAKEFLAGS)
+     $ make
+     MAKEFLAGS = --unix
+     $ make -k
+     MAKEFLAGS = --unix -k
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: The Make Macro SHELL,  Next: Parallel Make,  Prev: The Make Macro MAKEFLAGS,  Up: Portable Make
+
+12.9 The Make Macro `SHELL'
+===========================
+
+Posix-compliant `make' internally uses the `$(SHELL)' macro to spawn
+shell processes and execute Make rules.  This is a builtin macro
+supplied by `make', but it can be modified by a makefile or by a
+command-line argument.
+
+   Not all `make' implementations define this `SHELL' macro.  Tru64
+`make' is an example; this implementation always uses `/bin/sh'.  So
+it's a good idea to always define `SHELL' in your makefiles.  If you
+use Autoconf, do
+
+     SHELL = @SHELL@
+
+If you use Automake, this is done for you.
+
+   Do not force `SHELL = /bin/sh' because that is not correct
+everywhere.  Remember, `/bin/sh' is not Posix compliant on many
+systems, such as FreeBSD 4, NetBSD 3, AIX 3, Solaris 10, or Tru64.
+Additionally, DJGPP lacks `/bin/sh', and when its GNU `make' port sees
+such a setting it enters a special emulation mode where features like
+pipes and redirections are emulated on top of DOS's `command.com'.
+Unfortunately this emulation is incomplete; for instance it does not
+handle command substitutions.  Using `@SHELL@' means that your makefile
+will benefit from the same improved shell, such as `bash' or `ksh',
+that was discovered during `configure', so that you aren't fighting two
+different sets of shell bugs between the two contexts.
+
+   Posix-compliant `make' should never acquire the value of $(SHELL)
+from the environment, even when `make -e' is used (otherwise, think
+about what would happen to your rules if `SHELL=/bin/tcsh').
+
+   However not all `make' implementations have this exception.  For
+instance it's not surprising that Tru64 `make' doesn't protect `SHELL',
+since it doesn't use it.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     SHELL = /bin/sh
+     FOO = foo
+     all:
+             @echo $(SHELL)
+             @echo $(FOO)
+     $ env SHELL=/bin/tcsh FOO=bar make -e   # Tru64 Make
+     /bin/tcsh
+     bar
+     $ env SHELL=/bin/tcsh FOO=bar gmake -e  # GNU make
+     /bin/sh
+     bar
+
+   Conversely, `make' is not supposed to export any changes to the
+macro `SHELL' to child processes.  Again, many implementations break
+this rule:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     all:
+             @echo $(SHELL)
+             @printenv SHELL
+     $ env SHELL=sh make -e SHELL=/bin/ksh   # BSD Make, GNU make 3.80
+     /bin/ksh
+     /bin/ksh
+     $ env SHELL=sh gmake -e SHELL=/bin/ksh  # GNU make 3.81
+     /bin/ksh
+     sh
+
+

+
+12.10 Parallel Make
+===================
+
+Support for parallel execution in `make' implementation varies.
+Generally, using GNU make is your best bet.
+
+   When NetBSD or FreeBSD `make' are run in parallel mode, they will
+reuse the same shell for multiple commands within one recipe.  This can
+have various unexpected consequences.  For example, changes of
+directories or variables persist between recipes, so that:
+
+     all:
+             @var=value; cd /; pwd; echo $$var; echo $$$$
+             @pwd; echo $$var; echo $$$$
+
+may output the following with `make -j1', at least on NetBSD up to 5.1
+and FreeBSD up to 8.2:
+
+     /
+     value
+     32235
+     /
+     value
+     32235
+
+while without `-j1', or with `-B', the output looks less surprising:
+
+     /
+     value
+     32238
+     /tmp
+
+     32239
+
+Another consequence is that, if one command in a recipe uses `exit 0'
+to indicate a successful exit, the shell will be gone and the remaining
+commands of this recipe will not be executed.
+
+   The BSD `make' implementations, when run in parallel mode, will also
+pass the `Makefile' recipes to the shell through its standard input,
+thus making it unusable from the recipes:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     read:
+             @read line; echo LINE: $$line
+     $ echo foo | make read
+     LINE: foo
+     $ echo foo | make -j1 read # NetBSD 5.1 and FreeBSD 8.2
+     LINE:
+
+Moreover, when FreeBSD `make' (up at least to 8.2) is run in parallel
+mode, it implements the `@' and `-' "recipe modifiers" by dynamically
+modifying the active shell flags.  This behavior has the effects of
+potentially clobbering the exit status of recipes silenced with the `@'
+modifier if they also unset the `errexit' shell flag, and of mangling
+the output in unexpected ways:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     a:
+             @echo $$-; set +e; false
+     b:
+             -echo $$-; false; echo set -
+     $ make a; echo status: $?
+     ehBc
+     *** Error code 1
+     status: 1
+     $ make -j1 a; echo status: $?
+     ehB
+     status: 0
+     $ make b
+     echo $-; echo set -
+     hBc
+     set -
+     $ make -j1 b
+     echo $-; echo hvB
+
+You can avoid all these issues by using the `-B' option to enable
+compatibility semantics.  However, that will effectively also disable
+all parallelism as that will cause prerequisites to be updated in the
+order they are listed in a rule.
+
+   Some make implementations (among them, FreeBSD `make', NetBSD
+`make', and Solaris `dmake'), when invoked with a `-jN' option, connect
+the standard output and standard error of all their child processes to
+pipes or temporary regular files.  This can lead to subtly different
+semantics in the behavior of the spawned processes.  For example, even
+if the `make' standard output is connected to a tty, the recipe command
+will not be:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     all:
+             @test -t 1 && echo "Is a tty" || echo "Is not a tty"
+     $ make -j 2 # FreeBSD 8.2 make
+     Is not a tty
+     $ make -j 2 # NetBSD 5.1 make
+     --- all ---
+     Is not a tty
+     $ dmake -j 2 # Solaris 10 dmake
+     HOSTNAME --> 1 job
+     HOSTNAME --> Job output
+     Is not a tty
+
+On the other hand:
+
+     $ make -j 2 # GNU make, Heirloom make
+     Is a tty
+
+The above examples also show additional status output produced in
+parallel mode for targets being updated by Solaris `dmake' and NetBSD
+`make' (but _not_ by FreeBSD `make').
+
+   Furthermore, parallel runs of those `make' implementations will
+route standard error from commands that they spawn into their own
+standard output, and may remove leading whitespace from output lines.

+
+12.11 Comments in Make Rules
+============================
+
+Never put comments in a rule.
+
+   Some `make' treat anything starting with a tab as a command for the
+current rule, even if the tab is immediately followed by a `#'.  The
+`make' from Tru64 Unix V5.1 is one of them.  The following makefile
+runs `# foo' through the shell.
+
+     all:
+             # foo
+
+   As a workaround, you can use the `:' no-op command with a string
+argument that gets ignored:
+
+     all:
+             : "foo"
+
+   Conversely, if you want to use the `#' character in some command,
+you can only do so by expanding it inside a rule (*note Comments in
+Make Macros::).  So for example, if `COMMENT_CHAR' is substituted by
+`config.status' as `#', then the following substitutes `@COMMENT_CHAR@'
+in a generated header:
+
+     foo.h: foo.h.in
+             sed -e 's|@''COMMENT_CHAR''@|@COMMENT_CHAR@|g' \
+                 $(srcdir)/foo.h.in > $@
+
+   The funny shell quoting avoids a substitution at `config.status' run
+time of the left-hand side of the `sed' `s' command.
+

+
+12.12 Newlines in Make Rules
+============================
+
+In shell scripts, newlines can be used inside string literals.  But in
+the shell statements of `Makefile' rules, this is not possible: A
+newline not preceded by a backslash is a separator between shell
+statements.  Whereas a newline that is preceded by a backslash becomes
+part of the shell statement according to POSIX, but gets replaced,
+together with the backslash that precedes it, by a space in GNU `make'
+3.80 and older.  So, how can a newline be used in a string literal?
+
+   The trick is to set up a shell variable that contains a newline:
+
+     nlinit=`echo 'nl="'; echo '"'`; eval "$$nlinit"
+
+   For example, in order to create a multiline `sed' expression that
+inserts a blank line after every line of a file, this code can be used:
+
+     nlinit=`echo 'nl="'; echo '"'`; eval "$$nlinit"; \
+     sed -e "s/\$$/\\$${nl}/" < input > output

+
+12.13 Comments in Make Macros
+=============================
+
+Avoid putting comments in macro values as far as possible.  Posix
+specifies that the text starting from the `#' sign until the end of the
+line is to be ignored, which has the unfortunate effect of disallowing
+them even within quotes.  Thus, the following might lead to a syntax
+error at compile time:
+
+     CPPFLAGS = "-DCOMMENT_CHAR='#'"
+
+as `CPPFLAGS' may be expanded to `"-DCOMMENT_CHAR=''.
+
+   Most `make' implementations disregard this and treat single and
+double quotes specially here.  Also, GNU `make' lets you put `#' into a
+macro value by escaping it with a backslash, i.e., `\#'.  However,
+neither of these usages are portable.  *Note Comments in Make Rules::,
+for a portable alternative.
+
+   Even without quoting involved, comments can have surprising effects,
+because the whitespace before them is part of the variable value:
+
+     foo = bar # trailing comment
+     print: ; @echo "$(foo)."
+
+prints `bar .', which is usually not intended, and can expose `make'
+bugs as described below.

+12.14 Trailing whitespace in Make Macros
+========================================
+
+GNU `make' 3.80 mistreats trailing whitespace in macro substitutions
+and appends another spurious suffix:
+
+     empty =
+     foo = bar $(empty)
+     print: ; @echo $(foo:=.test)
+
+prints `bar.test .test'.
+
+   BSD and Solaris `make' implementations do not honor trailing
+whitespace in macro definitions as Posix requires:
+
+     foo = bar # Note the space after "bar".
+     print: ; @echo $(foo)t
+
+prints `bart' instead of `bar t'.  To work around this, you can use a
+helper macro as in the previous example.

+
+12.15 Command-line Macros and whitespace
+========================================
+
+Some `make' implementations may strip trailing whitespace off of macros
+set on the command line in addition to leading whitespace.  Further,
+some may strip leading whitespace off of macros set from environment
+variables:
+
+     $ echo 'print: ; @echo "x$(foo)x$(bar)x"' |
+       foo=' f f ' make -f - bar=' b b '
+     x f f xb b x  # AIX, BSD, GNU make

+12.16 The `obj/' Subdirectory and Make
+======================================
+
+Never name one of your subdirectories `obj/' if you don't like
+surprises.
+
+   If an `obj/' directory exists, BSD `make' enters it before reading
+the makefile.  Hence the makefile in the current directory is not read.

+==============================

+Do not rely on the exit status of `make -k'.  Some implementations
+reflect whether they encountered an error in their exit status; other
+implementations always succeed.

+
+12.18 `VPATH' and Make
+======================
+
+Posix does not specify the semantics of `VPATH'.  Typically, `make'
+supports `VPATH', but its implementation is not consistent.
+
+   Autoconf and Automake support makefiles whose usages of `VPATH' are
+portable to recent-enough popular implementations of `make', but to
+keep the resulting makefiles portable, a package's makefile prototypes
+must take the following issues into account.  These issues are
+complicated and are often poorly understood, and installers who use
+`VPATH' should expect to find many bugs in this area.  If you use
+`VPATH', the simplest way to avoid these portability bugs is to stick
+with GNU `make', since it is the most commonly-used `make' among
+Autoconf users.
+
+   Here are some known issues with some `VPATH' implementations.

+
+12.18.1 Variables listed in `VPATH'
+-----------------------------------
+
+Do not set `VPATH' to the value of another variable, for example `VPATH
+= $(srcdir)', because some ancient versions of `make' do not do
+variable substitutions on the value of `VPATH'.  For example, use this
+
+     srcdir = @srcdir@
+     VPATH = @srcdir@
+
+rather than `VPATH = $(srcdir)'.  Note that with GNU Automake, there is
+no need to set this yourself.

+
+12.18.2 `VPATH' and Double-colon Rules
+--------------------------------------
+
+With ancient versions of Sun `make', any assignment to `VPATH' causes
+`make' to execute only the first set of double-colon rules.  However,
+this problem is no longer of practical concern.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: $< in Explicit Rules,  Next: Automatic Rule Rewriting,  Prev: VPATH and Double-colon,  Up: VPATH and Make
+
+12.18.3 `$<' Not Supported in Explicit Rules
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Using `$<' in explicit rules is not portable.  The prerequisite file
+must be named explicitly in the rule.  If you want to find the
+prerequisite via a `VPATH' search, you have to code the whole thing
+manually.  *Note Build Directories::.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Automatic Rule Rewriting,  Next: Tru64 Directory Magic,  Prev: $< in Explicit Rules,  Up: VPATH and Make
+
+12.18.4 Automatic Rule Rewriting
+--------------------------------
+
+Some `make' implementations, such as Solaris and Tru64, search for
+prerequisites in `VPATH' and then rewrite each occurrence as a plain
+word in the rule.  For instance:
+
+     # This isn't portable to GNU make.
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     f.c: if.c
+             cp if.c f.c
+
+executes `cp ../pkg/src/if.c f.c' if `if.c' is found in `../pkg/src'.
+
+   However, this rule leads to real problems in practice.  For example,
+if the source directory contains an ordinary file named `test' that is
+used in a dependency, Solaris `make' rewrites commands like `if test -r
+foo; ...' to `if ../pkg/src/test -r foo; ...', which is typically
+undesirable.  In fact, `make' is completely unaware of shell syntax
+used in the rules, so the VPATH rewrite can potentially apply to _any_
+whitespace-separated word in a rule, including shell variables,
+functions, and keywords.
+
+     $ mkdir build
+     $ cd build
+     $ cat > Makefile <<'END'
+     VPATH = ..
+     all: arg func for echo
+             func () { for arg in "$$@"; do echo $$arg; done; }; \
+             func "hello world"
+     END
+     $ touch ../arg ../func ../for ../echo
+     $ make
+     ../func () { ../for ../arg in "$@"; do ../echo $arg; done; }; \
+     ../func "hello world"
+     sh: syntax error at line 1: `do' unexpected
+     *** Error code 2
+
+To avoid this problem, portable makefiles should never mention a source
+file or dependency whose name is that of a shell keyword like `for' or
+`until', a shell command like `cat' or `gcc' or `test', or a shell
+function or variable used in the corresponding `Makefile' recipe.
+
+   Because of these problems GNU `make' and many other `make'
+implementations do not rewrite commands, so portable makefiles should
+search `VPATH' manually.  It is tempting to write this:
+
+     # This isn't portable to Solaris make.
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     f.c: if.c
+             cp `test -f if.c || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c f.c
+
+However, the "prerequisite rewriting" still applies here.  So if `if.c'
+is in `../pkg/src', Solaris and Tru64 `make' execute
+
+     cp `test -f ../pkg/src/if.c || echo ../pkg/src/`if.c f.c
+
+which reduces to
+
+     cp if.c f.c
+
+and thus fails.  Oops.
+
+   A simple workaround, and good practice anyway, is to use `$?' and
+`$@' when possible:
+
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     f.c: if.c
+             cp $? $@
+
+but this does not generalize well to commands with multiple
+prerequisites.  A more general workaround is to rewrite the rule so that
+the prerequisite `if.c' never appears as a plain word.  For example,
+these three rules would be safe, assuming `if.c' is in `../pkg/src' and
+the other files are in the working directory:
+
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     f.c: if.c f1.c
+             cat `test -f ./if.c || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c f1.c >$@
+     g.c: if.c g1.c
+             cat `test -f 'if.c' || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c g1.c >$@
+     h.c: if.c h1.c
+             cat `test -f "if.c" || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c h1.c >$@
+
+   Things get worse when your prerequisites are in a macro.
+
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     HEADERS = f.h g.h h.h
+     install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+             for i in $(HEADERS); do \
+               $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+                 `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+                 $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+             done
+
+   The above `install-HEADERS' rule is not Solaris-proof because `for i
+in $(HEADERS);' is expanded to `for i in f.h g.h h.h;' where `f.h' and
+`g.h' are plain words and are hence subject to `VPATH' adjustments.
+
+   If the three files are in `../pkg/src', the rule is run as:
+
+     for i in ../pkg/src/f.h ../pkg/src/g.h h.h; do \
+       install -m 644 \
+          `test -f $i || echo ../pkg/src/`$i \
+          /usr/local/include/$i; \
+     done
+
+   where the two first `install' calls fail.  For instance, consider
+the `f.h' installation:
+
+     install -m 644 \
+       `test -f ../pkg/src/f.h || \
+         echo ../pkg/src/ \
+       `../pkg/src/f.h \
+       /usr/local/include/../pkg/src/f.h;
+
+It reduces to:
+
+     install -m 644 \
+       ../pkg/src/f.h \
+       /usr/local/include/../pkg/src/f.h;
+
+   Note that the manual `VPATH' search did not cause any problems here;
+however this command installs `f.h' in an incorrect directory.
+
+   Trying to quote `$(HEADERS)' in some way, as we did for `foo.c' a
+few makefiles ago, does not help:
+
+     install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+             headers='$(HEADERS)'; \
+             for i in $$headers; do \
+               $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+                 `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+                 $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+             done
+
+   Now, `headers='$(HEADERS)'' macro-expands to:
+
+     headers='f.h g.h h.h'
+
+but `g.h' is still a plain word.  (As an aside, the idiom
+`headers='$(HEADERS)'; for i in $$headers;' is a good idea if
+`$(HEADERS)' can be empty, because some shells diagnose a syntax error
+on `for i in;'.)
+
+   One workaround is to strip this unwanted `../pkg/src/' prefix
+manually:
+
+     VPATH = ../pkg/src
+     HEADERS = f.h g.h h.h
+     install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+             headers='$(HEADERS)'; \
+             for i in $$headers; do \
+               i=`expr "$$i" : '$(VPATH)/\(.*\)'`;
+               $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+                 `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+                 $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+             done
+
+   Automake does something similar.  However the above hack works only
+if the files listed in `HEADERS' are in the current directory or a
+subdirectory; they should not be in an enclosing directory.  If we had
+`HEADERS = ../f.h', the above fragment would fail in a VPATH build with
+Tru64 `make'.  The reason is that not only does Tru64 `make' rewrite
+dependencies, but it also simplifies them.  Hence `../f.h' becomes
+`../pkg/f.h' instead of `../pkg/src/../f.h'.  This obviously defeats
+any attempt to strip a leading `../pkg/src/' component.
+
+   The following example makes the behavior of Tru64 `make' more
+apparent.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     VPATH = sub
+     all: ../foo
+             echo ../foo
+     $ ls
+     Makefile foo
+     $ make
+     echo foo
+     foo
+
+Dependency `../foo' was found in `sub/../foo', but Tru64 `make'
+simplified it as `foo'.  (Note that the `sub/' directory does not even
+exist, this just means that the simplification occurred before the file
+was checked for.)
+
+   For the record here is how SunOS 4 `make' behaves on this example.
+
+     $ make
+     make: Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `../foo'

+12.18.5 Tru64 `make' Creates Prerequisite Directories Magically
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+When a prerequisite is a subdirectory of `VPATH', Tru64 `make' creates
+it in the current directory.
+
+     $ mkdir -p foo/bar build
+     $ cd build
+     $ cat >Makefile <<END
+     VPATH = ..
+     all: foo/bar
+     END
+     $ make
+     mkdir foo
+     mkdir foo/bar
+
+   This can yield unexpected results if a rule uses a manual `VPATH'
+search as presented before.
+
+     VPATH = ..
+     all : foo/bar
+             command `test -d foo/bar || echo ../`foo/bar
+
+   The above `command' is run on the empty `foo/bar' directory that was
+created in the current directory.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Make Target Lookup,  Prev: Tru64 Directory Magic,  Up: VPATH and Make
+
+12.18.6 Make Target Lookup
+--------------------------
+
+GNU `make' uses a complex algorithm to decide when it should use files
+found via a `VPATH' search.  *Note How Directory Searches are
+Performed: (make)Search Algorithm.
+
+   If a target needs to be rebuilt, GNU `make' discards the file name
+found during the `VPATH' search for this target, and builds the file
+locally using the file name given in the makefile.  If a target does
+not need to be rebuilt, GNU `make' uses the file name found during the
+`VPATH' search.
+
+   Other `make' implementations, like NetBSD `make', are easier to
+describe: the file name found during the `VPATH' search is used whether
+the target needs to be rebuilt or not.  Therefore new files are created
+locally, but existing files are updated at their `VPATH' location.
+
+   OpenBSD and FreeBSD `make', however, never perform a `VPATH' search
+for a dependency that has an explicit rule.  This is extremely annoying.
+
+   When attempting a `VPATH' build for an autoconfiscated package
+(e.g., `mkdir build && cd build && ../configure'), this means GNU
+`make' builds everything locally in the `build' directory, while BSD
+`make' builds new files locally and updates existing files in the
+source directory.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     VPATH = ..
+     all: foo.x bar.x
+     foo.x bar.x: newer.x
+             @echo Building $@
+     $ touch ../bar.x
+     $ touch ../newer.x
+     $ make        # GNU make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building bar.x
+     $ pmake       # NetBSD make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building ../bar.x
+     $ fmake       # FreeBSD make, OpenBSD make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building bar.x
+     $ tmake       # Tru64 make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building bar.x
+     $ touch ../bar.x
+     $ make        # GNU make
+     Building foo.x
+     $ pmake       # NetBSD make
+     Building foo.x
+     $ fmake       # FreeBSD make, OpenBSD make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building bar.x
+     $ tmake       # Tru64 make
+     Building foo.x
+     Building bar.x
+
+   Note how NetBSD `make' updates `../bar.x' in its VPATH location, and
+how FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Tru64 `make' always update `bar.x', even when
+`../bar.x' is up to date.
+
+   Another point worth mentioning is that once GNU `make' has decided
+to ignore a `VPATH' file name (e.g., it ignored `../bar.x' in the above
+example) it continues to ignore it when the target occurs as a
+prerequisite of another rule.
+
+   The following example shows that GNU `make' does not look up `bar.x'
+in `VPATH' before performing the `.x.y' rule, because it ignored the
+`VPATH' result of `bar.x' while running the `bar.x: newer.x' rule.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     VPATH = ..
+     all: bar.y
+     bar.x: newer.x
+             @echo Building $@
+     .SUFFIXES: .x .y
+     .x.y:
+             cp $< $@
+     $ touch ../bar.x
+     $ touch ../newer.x
+     $ make        # GNU make
+     Building bar.x
+     cp bar.x bar.y
+     cp: cannot stat `bar.x': No such file or directory
+     make: *** [bar.y] Error 1
+     $ pmake       # NetBSD make
+     Building ../bar.x
+     cp ../bar.x bar.y
+     $ rm bar.y
+     $ fmake       # FreeBSD make, OpenBSD make
+     echo Building bar.x
+     cp bar.x bar.y
+     cp: cannot stat `bar.x': No such file or directory
+     *** Error code 1
+     $ tmake       # Tru64 make
+     Building bar.x
+     cp: bar.x: No such file or directory
+     *** Exit 1
+
+   Note that if you drop away the command from the `bar.x: newer.x'
+rule, GNU `make' magically starts to work: it knows that `bar.x' hasn't
+been updated, therefore it doesn't discard the result from `VPATH'
+(`../bar.x') in succeeding uses.  Tru64 also works, but FreeBSD and
+OpenBSD still don't.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     VPATH = ..
+     all: bar.y
+     bar.x: newer.x
+     .SUFFIXES: .x .y
+     .x.y:
+             cp $< $@
+     $ touch ../bar.x
+     $ touch ../newer.x
+     $ make        # GNU make
+     cp ../bar.x bar.y
+     $ rm bar.y
+     $ pmake       # NetBSD make
+     cp ../bar.x bar.y
+     $ rm bar.y
+     $ fmake       # FreeBSD make, OpenBSD make
+     cp bar.x bar.y
+     cp: cannot stat `bar.x': No such file or directory
+     *** Error code 1
+     $ tmake       # Tru64 make
+     cp ../bar.x bar.y
+
+   It seems the sole solution that would please every `make'
+implementation is to never rely on `VPATH' searches for targets.  In
+other words, `VPATH' should be reserved to unbuilt sources.

+
+12.19 Single Suffix Rules and Separated Dependencies
+====================================================
+
+A "Single Suffix Rule" is basically a usual suffix (inference) rule
+(`.from.to:'), but which _destination_ suffix is empty (`.from:').
+
+   "Separated dependencies" simply refers to listing the prerequisite
+of a target, without defining a rule.  Usually one can list on the one
+hand side, the rules, and on the other hand side, the dependencies.
+
+   Solaris `make' does not support separated dependencies for targets
+defined by single suffix rules:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     .SUFFIXES: .in
+     foo: foo.in
+     .in:
+             cp $< $@
+     $ touch foo.in
+     $ make
+     $ ls
+     Makefile  foo.in
+
+while GNU Make does:
+
+     $ gmake
+     cp foo.in foo
+     $ ls
+     Makefile  foo       foo.in
+
+   Note it works without the `foo: foo.in' dependency.
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     .SUFFIXES: .in
+     .in:
+             cp $< $@
+     $ make foo
+     cp foo.in foo
+
+and it works with double suffix inference rules:
+
+     $ cat Makefile
+     foo.out: foo.in
+     .SUFFIXES: .in .out
+     .in.out:
+             cp $< $@
+     $ make
+     cp foo.in foo.out
+
+   As a result, in such a case, you have to write target rules.

+12.20 Timestamp Resolution and Make
+===================================
+
+Traditionally, file timestamps had 1-second resolution, and `make' used
+those timestamps to determine whether one file was newer than the
+other.  However, many modern file systems have timestamps with
+1-nanosecond resolution.  Some `make' implementations look at the
+entire timestamp; others ignore the fractional part, which can lead to
+incorrect results.  Normally this is not a problem, but in some extreme
+cases you may need to use tricks like `sleep 1' to work around
+timestamp truncation bugs.
+
+   Commands like `cp -p' and `touch -r' typically do not copy file
+timestamps to their full resolutions (*note Limitations of Usual Tools:
+touch.).  Hence you should be wary of rules like this:
+
+     dest: src
+             cp -p src dest
+
+   as `dest' often appears to be older than `src' after the timestamp
+is truncated, and this can cause `make' to do needless rework the next
+time it is invoked.  To work around this problem, you can use a
+timestamp file, e.g.:
+
+     dest-stamp: src
+             cp -p src dest
+             date >dest-stamp
+
+   Apart from timestamp resolution, there are also differences in
+handling equal timestamps.  HP-UX `make' updates targets if it has the
+same time stamp as one of its prerequisites, in violation of Posix
+rules.
+
+   This can cause spurious rebuilds for repeated runs of `make'.  This
+in turn can cause `make' to fail if it tries to rebuild generated files
+in a possibly read-only source tree with tools not present on the
+end-user machine.  Use GNU `make' instead.

+13 Portable C and C++ Programming
+*********************************
+
+C and C++ programs often use low-level features of the underlying
+system, and therefore are often more difficult to make portable to other
+platforms.
+
+   Several standards have been developed to help make your programs more
+portable.  If you write programs with these standards in mind, you can
+have greater confidence that your programs work on a wide variety of
+systems.  *Note Language Standards Supported by GCC: (gcc)Standards,
+for a list of C-related standards.  Many programs also assume the Posix
+standard (http://www.opengroup.org/susv3).
+
+   Some old code is written to be portable to K&R C, which predates any
+C standard.  K&R C compilers are no longer of practical interest,
+though, and the rest of section assumes at least C89, the first C
+standard.
+
+   Program portability is a huge topic, and this section can only
+briefly introduce common pitfalls.  *Note Portability between System
+Types: (standards)System Portability, for more information.

+
+13.1 Varieties of Unportability
+===============================
+
+Autoconf tests and ordinary programs often need to test what is allowed
+on a system, and therefore they may need to deliberately exceed the
+boundaries of what the standards allow, if only to see whether an
+optional feature is present.  When you write such a program, you should
+keep in mind the difference between constraints, unspecified behavior,
+and undefined behavior.
+
+   In C, a "constraint" is a rule that the compiler must enforce.  An
+example constraint is that C programs must not declare a bit-field with
+negative width.  Tests can therefore reliably assume that programs with
+negative-width bit-fields are rejected by a compiler that conforms to
+the standard.
+
+   "Unspecified behavior" is valid behavior, where the standard allows
+multiple possibilities.  For example, the order of evaluation of
+function arguments is unspecified.  Some unspecified behavior is
+"implementation-defined", i.e., documented by the implementation, but
+since Autoconf tests cannot read the documentation they cannot
+distinguish between implementation-defined and other unspecified
+behavior.  It is common for Autoconf tests to probe implementations to
+determine otherwise-unspecified behavior.
+
+   "Undefined behavior" is invalid behavior, where the standard allows
+the implementation to do anything it pleases.  For example,
+dereferencing a null pointer leads to undefined behavior.  If possible,
+test programs should avoid undefined behavior, since a program with
+undefined behavior might succeed on a test that should fail.
+
+   The above rules apply to programs that are intended to conform to the
+standard.  However, strictly-conforming programs are quite rare, since
+the standards are so limiting.  A major goal of Autoconf is to support
+programs that use implementation features not described by the standard,
+and it is fairly common for test programs to violate the above rules, if
+the programs work well enough in practice.

+13.2 Integer Overflow
+=====================
+
+In practice many portable C programs assume that signed integer
+overflow wraps around reliably using two's complement arithmetic.  Yet
+the C standard says that program behavior is undefined on overflow, and
+in a few cases C programs do not work on some modern implementations
+because their overflows do not wrap around as their authors expected.
+Conversely, in signed integer remainder, the C standard requires
+overflow behavior that is commonly not implemented.

+
+13.2.1 Basics of Integer Overflow
+---------------------------------
+
+In languages like C, unsigned integer overflow reliably wraps around;
+e.g., `UINT_MAX + 1' yields zero.  This is guaranteed by the C standard
+and is portable in practice, unless you specify aggressive, nonstandard
+optimization options suitable only for special applications.
+
+   In contrast, the C standard says that signed integer overflow leads
+to undefined behavior where a program can do anything, including dumping
+core or overrunning a buffer.  The misbehavior can even precede the
+overflow.  Such an overflow can occur during addition, subtraction,
+multiplication, division, and left shift.
+
+   Despite this requirement of the standard, many C programs and
+Autoconf tests assume that signed integer overflow silently wraps
+around modulo a power of two, using two's complement arithmetic, so
+long as you cast the resulting value to a signed integer type or store
+it into a signed integer variable.  If you use conservative
+optimization flags, such programs are generally portable to the vast
+majority of modern platforms, with a few exceptions discussed later.
+
+   For historical reasons the C standard also allows implementations
+with ones' complement or signed magnitude arithmetic, but it is safe to
+assume two's complement nowadays.
+
+   Also, overflow can occur when converting an out-of-range value to a
+signed integer type.  Here a standard implementation must define what
+happens, but this might include raising an exception.  In practice all
+known implementations support silent wraparound in this case, so you
+need not worry about other possibilities.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Signed Overflow Examples,  Next: Optimization and Wraparound,  Prev: Integer Overflow Basics,  Up: Integer Overflow
+
+13.2.2 Examples of Code Assuming Wraparound Overflow
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+There has long been a tension between what the C standard requires for
+signed integer overflow, and what C programs commonly assume.  The
+standard allows aggressive optimizations based on assumptions that
+overflow never occurs, but many practical C programs rely on overflow
+wrapping around.  These programs do not conform to the standard, but
+they commonly work in practice because compiler writers are
+understandably reluctant to implement optimizations that would break
+many programs, unless perhaps a user specifies aggressive optimization.
+
+   The C Standard says that if a program has signed integer overflow its
+behavior is undefined, and the undefined behavior can even precede the
+overflow.  To take an extreme example:
+
+     if (password == expected_password)
+       allow_superuser_privileges ();
+     else if (counter++ == INT_MAX)
+       abort ();
+     else
+       printf ("%d password mismatches\n", counter);
+
+If the `int' variable `counter' equals `INT_MAX', `counter++' must
+overflow and the behavior is undefined, so the C standard allows the
+compiler to optimize away the test against `INT_MAX' and the `abort'
+call.  Worse, if an earlier bug in the program lets the compiler deduce
+that `counter == INT_MAX' or that `counter' previously overflowed, the
+C standard allows the compiler to optimize away the password test and
+generate code that allows superuser privileges unconditionally.
+
+   Despite this requirement by the standard, it has long been common
+for C code to assume wraparound arithmetic after signed overflow, and
+all known practical C implementations support some C idioms that assume
+wraparound signed arithmetic, even if the idioms do not conform
+strictly to the standard.  If your code looks like the following
+examples it will almost surely work with real-world compilers.
+
+   Here is an example derived from the 7th Edition Unix implementation
+of `atoi' (1979-01-10):
+
+     char *p;
+     int f, n;
+     ...
+     while (*p >= '0' && *p <= '9')
+       n = n * 10 + *p++ - '0';
+     return (f ? -n : n);
+
+Even if the input string is in range, on most modern machines this has
+signed overflow when computing the most negative integer (the `-n'
+overflows) or a value near an extreme integer (the first `+' overflows).
+
+   Here is another example, derived from the 7th Edition implementation
+of `rand' (1979-01-10).  Here the programmer expects both
+multiplication and addition to wrap on overflow:
+
+     static long int randx = 1;
+     ...
+     randx = randx * 1103515245 + 12345;
+     return (randx >> 16) & 077777;
+
+   In the following example, derived from the GNU C Library 2.5
+implementation of `mktime' (2006-09-09), the code assumes wraparound
+arithmetic in `+' to detect signed overflow:
+
+     time_t t, t1, t2;
+     int sec_requested, sec_adjustment;
+     ...
+     t1 = t + sec_requested;
+     t2 = t1 + sec_adjustment;
+     if (((t1 < t) != (sec_requested < 0))
+         | ((t2 < t1) != (sec_adjustment < 0)))
+       return -1;
+
+   If your code looks like these examples, it is probably safe even
+though it does not strictly conform to the C standard.  This might lead
+one to believe that one can generally assume wraparound on overflow,
+but that is not always true, as can be seen in the next section.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Optimization and Wraparound,  Next: Signed Overflow Advice,  Prev: Signed Overflow Examples,  Up: Integer Overflow
+
+13.2.3 Optimizations That Break Wraparound Arithmetic
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+Compilers sometimes generate code that is incompatible with wraparound
+integer arithmetic.  A simple example is an algebraic simplification: a
+compiler might translate `(i * 2000) / 1000' to `i * 2' because it
+assumes that `i * 2000' does not overflow.  The translation is not
+equivalent to the original when overflow occurs: e.g., in the typical
+case of 32-bit signed two's complement wraparound `int', if `i' has
+type `int' and value `1073742', the original expression returns
+-2147483 but the optimized version returns the mathematically correct
+value 2147484.
+
+   More subtly, loop induction optimizations often exploit the undefined
+behavior of signed overflow.  Consider the following contrived function
+`sumc':
+
+     int
+     sumc (int lo, int hi)
+     {
+       int sum = 0;
+       int i;
+       for (i = lo; i <= hi; i++)
+         sum ^= i * 53;
+       return sum;
+     }
+
+To avoid multiplying by 53 each time through the loop, an optimizing
+compiler might internally transform `sumc' to the equivalent of the
+following:
+
+     int
+     transformed_sumc (int lo, int hi)
+     {
+       int sum = 0;
+       int hic = hi * 53;
+       int ic;
+       for (ic = lo * 53; ic <= hic; ic += 53)
+         sum ^= ic;
+       return sum;
+     }
+
+This transformation is allowed by the C standard, but it is invalid for
+wraparound arithmetic when `INT_MAX / 53 < hi', because then the
+overflow in computing expressions like `hi * 53' can cause the
+expression `i <= hi' to yield a different value from the transformed
+expression `ic <= hic'.
+
+   For this reason, compilers that use loop induction and similar
+techniques often do not support reliable wraparound arithmetic when a
+loop induction variable like `ic' is involved.  Since loop induction
+variables are generated by the compiler, and are not visible in the
+source code, it is not always trivial to say whether the problem
+affects your code.
+
+   Hardly any code actually depends on wraparound arithmetic in cases
+like these, so in practice these loop induction optimizations are almost
+always useful.  However, edge cases in this area can cause problems.
+For example:
+
+     int j;
+     for (j = 1; 0 < j; j *= 2)
+       test (j);
+
+Here, the loop attempts to iterate through all powers of 2 that `int'
+can represent, but the C standard allows a compiler to optimize away
+the comparison and generate an infinite loop, under the argument that
+behavior is undefined on overflow.  As of this writing this
+optimization is not done by any production version of GCC with `-O2',
+but it might be performed by other compilers, or by more aggressive GCC
+optimization options, and the GCC developers have not decided whether
+it will continue to work with GCC and `-O2'.

+
+13.2.4 Practical Advice for Signed Overflow Issues
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Ideally the safest approach is to avoid signed integer overflow
+entirely.  For example, instead of multiplying two signed integers, you
+can convert them to unsigned integers, multiply the unsigned values,
+then test whether the result is in signed range.
+
+   Rewriting code in this way will be inconvenient, though,
+particularly if the signed values might be negative.  Also, it may hurt
+performance.  Using unsigned arithmetic to check for overflow is
+particularly painful to do portably and efficiently when dealing with an
+integer type like `uid_t' whose width and signedness vary from platform
+to platform.
+
+   Furthermore, many C applications pervasively assume wraparound
+behavior and typically it is not easy to find and remove all these
+assumptions.  Hence it is often useful to maintain nonstandard code
+that assumes wraparound on overflow, instead of rewriting the code.
+The rest of this section attempts to give practical advice for this
+situation.
+
+   If your code wants to detect signed integer overflow in `sum = a +
+b', it is generally safe to use an expression like `(sum < a) != (b <
+0)'.
+
+   If your code uses a signed loop index, make sure that the index
+cannot overflow, along with all signed expressions derived from the
+index.  Here is a contrived example of problematic code with two
+instances of overflow.
+
+     for (i = INT_MAX - 10; i <= INT_MAX; i++)
+       if (i + 1 < 0)
+         {
+           report_overflow ();
+           break;
+         }
+
+Because of the two overflows, a compiler might optimize away or
+transform the two comparisons in a way that is incompatible with the
+wraparound assumption.
+
+   If your code uses an expression like `(i * 2000) / 1000' and you
+actually want the multiplication to wrap around on overflow, use
+unsigned arithmetic to do it, e.g., `((int) (i * 2000u)) / 1000'.
+
+   If your code assumes wraparound behavior and you want to insulate it
+against any GCC optimizations that would fail to support that behavior,
+you should use GCC's `-fwrapv' option, which causes signed overflow to
+wrap around reliably (except for division and remainder, as discussed
+in the next section).
+
+   If you need to port to platforms where signed integer overflow does
+not reliably wrap around (e.g., due to hardware overflow checking, or to
+highly aggressive optimizations), you should consider debugging with
+GCC's `-ftrapv' option, which causes signed overflow to raise an
+exception.

+13.2.5 Signed Integer Division and Integer Overflow
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+Overflow in signed integer division is not always harmless: for
+example, on CPUs of the i386 family, dividing `INT_MIN' by `-1' yields
+a SIGFPE signal which by default terminates the program.  Worse, taking
+the remainder of these two values typically yields the same signal on
+these CPUs, even though the C standard requires `INT_MIN % -1' to yield
+zero because the expression does not overflow.

+

+
+13.3 Preprocessor Arithmetic
+============================
+
+In C99, preprocessor arithmetic, used for `#if' expressions, must be
+evaluated as if all signed values are of type `intmax_t' and all
+unsigned values of type `uintmax_t'.  Many compilers are buggy in this
+area, though.  For example, as of 2007, Sun C mishandles `#if LLONG_MIN
+< 0' on a platform with 32-bit `long int' and 64-bit `long long int'.
+Also, some older preprocessors mishandle constants ending in `LL'.  To
+work around these problems, you can compute the value of expressions
+like `LONG_MAX < LLONG_MAX' at `configure'-time rather than at
+`#if'-time.

+
+13.4 Properties of Null Pointers
+================================
+
+Most modern hosts reliably fail when you attempt to dereference a null
+pointer.
+
+   On almost all modern hosts, null pointers use an all-bits-zero
+internal representation, so you can reliably use `memset' with 0 to set
+all the pointers in an array to null values.
+
+   If `p' is a null pointer to an object type, the C expression `p + 0'
+always evaluates to `p' on modern hosts, even though the standard says
+that it has undefined behavior.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Buffer Overruns,  Next: Volatile Objects,  Prev: Null Pointers,  Up: Portable C and C++
+
+13.5 Buffer Overruns and Subscript Errors
+=========================================
+
+Buffer overruns and subscript errors are the most common dangerous
+errors in C programs.  They result in undefined behavior because storing
+outside an array typically modifies storage that is used by some other
+object, and most modern systems lack runtime checks to catch these
+errors.  Programs should not rely on buffer overruns being caught.
+
+   There is one exception to the usual rule that a portable program
+cannot address outside an array.  In C, it is valid to compute the
+address just past an object, e.g., `&a[N]' where `a' has `N' elements,
+so long as you do not dereference the resulting pointer.  But it is not
+valid to compute the address just before an object, e.g., `&a[-1]'; nor
+is it valid to compute two past the end, e.g., `&a[N+1]'.  On most
+platforms `&a[-1] < &a[0] && &a[N] < &a[N+1]', but this is not reliable
+in general, and it is usually easy enough to avoid the potential
+portability problem, e.g., by allocating an extra unused array element
+at the start or end.
+
+   Valgrind (http://valgrind.org/) can catch many overruns.  GCC users
+might also consider using the `-fmudflap' option to catch overruns.
+
+   Buffer overruns are usually caused by off-by-one errors, but there
+are more subtle ways to get them.
+
+   Using `int' values to index into an array or compute array sizes
+causes problems on typical 64-bit hosts where an array index might be
+2^31 or larger.  Index values of type `size_t' avoid this problem, but
+cannot be negative.  Index values of type `ptrdiff_t' are signed, and
+are wide enough in practice.
+
+   If you add or multiply two numbers to calculate an array size, e.g.,
+`malloc (x * sizeof y + z)', havoc ensues if the addition or
+multiplication overflows.
+
+   Many implementations of the `alloca' function silently misbehave and
+can generate buffer overflows if given sizes that are too large.  The
+size limits are implementation dependent, but are at least 4000 bytes
+on all platforms that we know about.
+
+   The standard functions `asctime', `asctime_r', `ctime', `ctime_r',
+and `gets' are prone to buffer overflows, and portable code should not
+use them unless the inputs are known to be within certain limits.  The
+time-related functions can overflow their buffers if given timestamps
+out of range (e.g., a year less than -999 or greater than 9999).
+Time-related buffer overflows cannot happen with recent-enough versions
+of the GNU C library, but are possible with other implementations.  The
+`gets' function is the worst, since it almost invariably overflows its
+buffer when presented with an input line larger than the buffer.

+
+13.6 Volatile Objects
+=====================
+
+The keyword `volatile' is often misunderstood in portable code.  Its
+use inhibits some memory-access optimizations, but programmers often
+wish that it had a different meaning than it actually does.
+
+   `volatile' was designed for code that accesses special objects like
+memory-mapped device registers whose contents spontaneously change.
+Such code is inherently low-level, and it is difficult to specify
+portably what `volatile' means in these cases.  The C standard says,
+"What constitutes an access to an object that has volatile-qualified
+type is implementation-defined," so in theory each implementation is
+supposed to fill in the gap by documenting what `volatile' means for
+that implementation.  In practice, though, this documentation is
+usually absent or incomplete.
+
+   One area of confusion is the distinction between objects defined with
+volatile types, and volatile lvalues.  From the C standard's point of
+view, an object defined with a volatile type has externally visible
+behavior.  You can think of such objects as having little oscilloscope
+probes attached to them, so that the user can observe some properties of
+accesses to them, just as the user can observe data written to output
+files.  However, the standard does not make it clear whether users can
+observe accesses by volatile lvalues to ordinary objects.  For example:
+
+     /* Declare and access a volatile object.
+        Accesses to X are "visible" to users.  */
+     static int volatile x;
+     x = 1;
+
+     /* Access two ordinary objects via a volatile lvalue.
+        It's not clear whether accesses to *P are "visible".  */
+     int y;
+     int *z = malloc (sizeof (int));
+     int volatile *p;
+     p = &y;
+     *p = 1;
+     p = z;
+     *p = 1;
+
+   Programmers often wish that `volatile' meant "Perform the memory
+access here and now, without merging several memory accesses, without
+changing the memory word size, and without reordering."  But the C
+standard does not require this.  For objects defined with a volatile
+type, accesses must be done before the next sequence point; but
+otherwise merging, reordering, and word-size change is allowed.  Worse,
+it is not clear from the standard whether volatile lvalues provide more
+guarantees in general than nonvolatile lvalues, if the underlying
+objects are ordinary.
+
+   Even when accessing objects defined with a volatile type, the C
+standard allows only extremely limited signal handlers: the behavior is
+undefined if a signal handler reads any nonlocal object, or writes to
+any nonlocal object whose type is not `sig_atomic_t volatile', or calls
+any standard library function other than `abort', `signal', and (if C99)
+`_Exit'.  Hence C compilers need not worry about a signal handler
+disturbing ordinary computation, unless the computation accesses a
+`sig_atomic_t volatile' lvalue that is not a local variable.  (There is
+an obscure exception for accesses via a pointer to a volatile
+character, since it may point into part of a `sig_atomic_t volatile'
+object.)  Posix adds to the list of library functions callable from a
+portable signal handler, but otherwise is like the C standard in this
+area.
+
+   Some C implementations allow memory-access optimizations within each
+translation unit, such that actual behavior agrees with the behavior
+required by the standard only when calling a function in some other
+translation unit, and a signal handler acts like it was called from a
+different translation unit.  The C standard hints that in these
+implementations, objects referred to by signal handlers "would require
+explicit specification of `volatile' storage, as well as other
+implementation-defined restrictions."  But unfortunately even for this
+special case these other restrictions are often not documented well.
+*Note When is a Volatile Object Accessed?: (gcc)Volatiles, for some
+restrictions imposed by GCC.  *Note Defining Signal Handlers:
+(libc)Defining Handlers, for some restrictions imposed by the GNU C
+library.  Restrictions differ on other platforms.
+
+   If possible, it is best to use a signal handler that fits within the
+limits imposed by the C and Posix standards.
+
+   If this is not practical, you can try the following rules of thumb.
+A signal handler should access only volatile lvalues, preferably lvalues
+that refer to objects defined with a volatile type, and should not
+assume that the accessed objects have an internally consistent state if
+they are larger than a machine word.  Furthermore, installers should
+employ compilers and compiler options that are commonly used for
+building operating system kernels, because kernels often need more from
+`volatile' than the C Standard requires, and installers who compile an
+application in a similar environment can sometimes benefit from the
+extra constraints imposed by kernels on compilers.  Admittedly we are
+handwaving somewhat here, as there are few guarantees in this area; the
+rules of thumb may help to fix some bugs but there is a good chance
+that they will not fix them all.
+
+   For `volatile', C++ has the same problems that C does.

+they are beyond the scope of this section.
+
+   The bottom line is that using `volatile' typically hurts performance
+but should not hurt correctness.  In some cases its use does help

+symptoms of a bug while not fixing the bug in general.

+13.7 Floating Point Portability
+===============================
+
+Almost all modern systems use IEEE-754 floating point, and it is safe to
+assume IEEE-754 in most portable code these days.  For more information,
+please see David Goldberg's classic paper What Every Computer Scientist
+Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic
+(http://www.validlab.com/goldberg/paper.pdf).
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Exiting Portably,  Prev: Floating Point Portability,  Up: Portable C and C++
+
+13.8 Exiting Portably
+=====================
+
+A C or C++ program can exit with status N by returning N from the
+`main' function.  Portable programs are supposed to exit either with
+status 0 or `EXIT_SUCCESS' to succeed, or with status `EXIT_FAILURE' to
+fail, but in practice it is portable to fail by exiting with status 1,
+and test programs that assume Posix can fail by exiting with status
+values from 1 through 255.  Programs on SunOS 2.0 (1985) through 3.5.2
+(1988) incorrectly exited with zero status when `main' returned
+nonzero, but ancient systems like these are no longer of practical
+concern.
+
+   A program can also exit with status N by passing N to the `exit'
+function, and a program can fail by calling the `abort' function.  If a
+program is specialized to just some platforms, it can fail by calling
+functions specific to those platforms, e.g., `_exit' (Posix) and
+`_Exit' (C99).  However, like other functions, an exit function should
+be declared, typically by including a header.  For example, if a C
+program calls `exit', it should include `stdlib.h' either directly or
+via the default includes (*note Default Includes::).
+
+   A program can fail due to undefined behavior such as dereferencing a
+null pointer, but this is not recommended as undefined behavior allows
+an implementation to do whatever it pleases and this includes exiting
+successfully.

+***********************
+
+A few kinds of features can't be guessed automatically by running test
+programs.  For example, the details of the object-file format, or
+special options that need to be passed to the compiler or linker.  You
+can check for such features using ad-hoc means, such as having
+`configure' check the output of the `uname' program, or looking for
+libraries that are unique to particular systems.  However, Autoconf
+provides a uniform method for handling unguessable features.

+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Specifying Target Triplets,  Next: Canonicalizing,  Up: Manual Configuration
+
+14.1 Specifying target triplets
+===============================
+
+Autoconf-generated `configure' scripts can make decisions based on a
+canonical name for the system type, or "target triplet", which has the
+form: `CPU-VENDOR-OS', where OS can be `SYSTEM' or `KERNEL-SYSTEM'
+
+   `configure' can usually guess the canonical name for the type of
+system it's running on.  To do so it runs a script called
+`config.guess', which infers the name using the `uname' command or
+symbols predefined by the C preprocessor.
+
+   Alternately, the user can specify the system type with command line
+arguments to `configure' (*note System Type::.  Doing so is necessary
+when cross-compiling.  In the most complex case of cross-compiling,
+three system types are involved.  The options to specify them are:
+
+`--build=BUILD-TYPE'
+     the type of system on which the package is being configured and
+     compiled.  It defaults to the result of running `config.guess'.
+     Specifying a BUILD-TYPE that differs from HOST-TYPE enables
+     cross-compilation mode.
+
+`--host=HOST-TYPE'
+     the type of system on which the package runs.  By default it is the
+     same as the build machine.  Specifying a HOST-TYPE that differs
+     from BUILD-TYPE, when BUILD-TYPE was also explicitly specified,
+     enables cross-compilation mode.
+
+`--target=TARGET-TYPE'
+     the type of system for which any compiler tools in the package
+     produce code (rarely needed).  By default, it is the same as host.
+
+   If you mean to override the result of `config.guess', use `--build',
+not `--host', since the latter enables cross-compilation.  For
+historical reasons, whenever you specify `--host', be sure to specify
+`--build' too; this will be fixed in the future.  So, to enter
+cross-compilation mode, use a command like this
+
+     ./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=m68k-coff
+
+Note that if you do not specify `--host', `configure' fails if it can't
+run the code generated by the specified compiler.  For example,
+configuring as follows fails:
+
+     ./configure CC=m68k-coff-gcc
+
+   When cross-compiling, `configure' will warn about any tools
+(compilers, linkers, assemblers) whose name is not prefixed with the
+host type.  This is an aid to users performing cross-compilation.
+Continuing the example above, if a cross-compiler named `cc' is used
+with a native `pkg-config', then libraries found by `pkg-config' will
+likely cause subtle build failures; but using the names `m68k-coff-cc'
+and `m68k-coff-pkg-config' avoids any confusion.  Avoiding the warning
+is as simple as creating the correct symlinks naming the cross tools.
+
+   `configure' recognizes short aliases for many system types; for
+example, `decstation' can be used instead of `mips-dec-ultrix4.2'.
+`configure' runs a script called `config.sub' to canonicalize system
+type aliases.
+
+   This section deliberately omits the description of the obsolete
+interface; see *note Hosts and Cross-Compilation::.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Canonicalizing,  Next: Using System Type,  Prev: Specifying Target Triplets,  Up: Manual Configuration
+
+14.2 Getting the Canonical System Type
+======================================
+
+The following macros make the system type available to `configure'
+scripts.
+
+   The variables `build_alias', `host_alias', and `target_alias' are
+always exactly the arguments of `--build', `--host', and `--target'; in
+particular, they are left empty if the user did not use them, even if
+the corresponding `AC_CANONICAL' macro was run.  Any configure script
+may use these variables anywhere.  These are the variables that should
+be used when in interaction with the user.
+
+   If you need to recognize some special environments based on their
+system type, run the following macros to get canonical system names.
+These variables are not set before the macro call.
+
+   If you use these macros, you must distribute `config.guess' and
+`config.sub' along with your source code.  *Note Output::, for
+information about the `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR' macro which you can use to
+control in which directory `configure' looks for those scripts.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CANONICAL_BUILD
+     Compute the canonical build-system type variable, `build', and its
+     three individual parts `build_cpu', `build_vendor', and `build_os'.
+
+     If `--build' was specified, then `build' is the canonicalization
+     of `build_alias' by `config.sub', otherwise it is determined by
+     the shell script `config.guess'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CANONICAL_HOST
+     Compute the canonical host-system type variable, `host', and its
+     three individual parts `host_cpu', `host_vendor', and `host_os'.
+
+     If `--host' was specified, then `host' is the canonicalization of
+     `host_alias' by `config.sub', otherwise it defaults to `build'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
+     Compute the canonical target-system type variable, `target', and
+     its three individual parts `target_cpu', `target_vendor', and
+     `target_os'.
+
+     If `--target' was specified, then `target' is the canonicalization
+     of `target_alias' by `config.sub', otherwise it defaults to `host'.
+
+   Note that there can be artifacts due to the backward compatibility
+code.  *Note Hosts and Cross-Compilation::, for more.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Using System Type,  Prev: Canonicalizing,  Up: Manual Configuration
+
+14.3 Using the System Type
+==========================
+
+In `configure.ac' the system type is generally used by one or more
+`case' statements to select system-specifics.  Shell wildcards can be
+used to match a group of system types.
+
+   For example, an extra assembler code object file could be chosen,
+giving access to a CPU cycle counter register.  `$(CYCLE_OBJ)' in the
+following would be used in a makefile to add the object to a program or
+library.
+
+     AS_CASE([$host],
+       [alpha*-*-*], [CYCLE_OBJ=rpcc.o],
+       [i?86-*-*],   [CYCLE_OBJ=rdtsc.o],
+       [CYCLE_OBJ=""]
+     )
+     AC_SUBST([CYCLE_OBJ])
+
+   `AC_CONFIG_LINKS' (*note Configuration Links::) is another good way
+to select variant source files, for example optimized code for some
+CPUs.  The configured CPU type doesn't always indicate exact CPU types,
+so some runtime capability checks may be necessary too.
+
+     case $host in
+       alpha*-*-*)   AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:alpha/dither.c]) ;;
+       powerpc*-*-*) AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:powerpc/dither.c]) ;;
+       *-*-*)        AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:generic/dither.c]) ;;
+     esac
+
+   The host system type can also be used to find cross-compilation tools
+with `AC_CHECK_TOOL' (*note Generic Programs::).
+
+   The above examples all show `$host', since this is where the code is
+going to run.  Only rarely is it necessary to test `$build' (which is
+where the build is being done).
+
+   Whenever you're tempted to use `$host' it's worth considering
+whether some sort of probe would be better.  New system types come along
+periodically or previously missing features are added.  Well-written
+probes can adapt themselves to such things, but hard-coded lists of
+names can't.  Here are some guidelines,
+
+   * Availability of libraries and library functions should always be
+     checked by probing.
+
+   * Variant behavior of system calls is best identified with runtime
+     tests if possible, but bug workarounds or obscure difficulties
+     might have to be driven from `$host'.
+
+   * Assembler code is inevitably highly CPU-specific and is best
+     selected according to `$host_cpu'.
+
+   * Assembler variations like underscore prefix on globals or ELF
+     versus COFF type directives are however best determined by
+     probing, perhaps even examining the compiler output.
+
+   `$target' is for use by a package creating a compiler or similar.
+For ordinary packages it's meaningless and should not be used.  It
+indicates what the created compiler should generate code for, if it can
+cross-compile.  `$target' generally selects various hard-coded CPU and
+system conventions, since usually the compiler or tools under
+construction themselves determine how the target works.

+
+15.1 Controlling Help Output
+============================
+
+Users consult `configure --help' to learn of configuration decisions
+specific to your package.  By default, `configure' breaks this output
+into sections for each type of option; within each section, help
+strings appear in the order `configure.ac' defines them:
+
+     Optional Features:
+       ...
+       --enable-bar            include bar
+
+     Optional Packages:
+       ...
+       --with-foo              use foo
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER
+     Request an alternate `--help' format, in which options of all
+     types appear together, in the order defined.  Call this macro
+     before any `AC_ARG_ENABLE' or `AC_ARG_WITH'.
+
+          Optional Features and Packages:
+            ...
+            --enable-bar            include bar
+            --with-foo              use foo
+
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: External Software,  Next: Package Options,  Prev: Help Formatting,  Up: Site Configuration
+
+15.2 Working With External Software
+===================================
+
+Some packages require, or can optionally use, other software packages
+that are already installed.  The user can give `configure' command line
+options to specify which such external software to use.  The options
+have one of these forms:
+
+     --with-PACKAGE[=ARG]
+     --without-PACKAGE
+
+   For example, `--with-gnu-ld' means work with the GNU linker instead
+of some other linker.  `--with-x' means work with The X Window System.
+
+   The user can give an argument by following the package name with `='
+and the argument.  Giving an argument of `no' is for packages that are
+used by default; it says to _not_ use the package.  An argument that is
+neither `yes' nor `no' could include a name or number of a version of
+the other package, to specify more precisely which other package this
+program is supposed to work with.  If no argument is given, it defaults
+to `yes'.  `--without-PACKAGE' is equivalent to `--with-PACKAGE=no'.
+
+   Normally `configure' scripts complain about `--with-PACKAGE' options
+that they do not support.  *Note Option Checking::, for details, and
+for how to override the defaults.
+
+   For each external software package that may be used, `configure.ac'
+should call `AC_ARG_WITH' to detect whether the `configure' user asked
+to use it.  Whether each package is used or not by default, and which
+arguments are valid, is up to you.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ARG_WITH (PACKAGE, HELP-STRING, [ACTION-IF-GIVEN],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     If the user gave `configure' the option `--with-PACKAGE' or
+     `--without-PACKAGE', run shell commands ACTION-IF-GIVEN.  If
+     neither option was given, run shell commands ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN.
+     The name PACKAGE indicates another software package that this
+     program should work with.  It should consist only of alphanumeric
+     characters, dashes, plus signs, and dots.
+
+     The option's argument is available to the shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-GIVEN in the shell variable `withval', which is actually
+     just the value of the shell variable named `with_PACKAGE', with
+     any non-alphanumeric characters in PACKAGE changed into `_'.  You
+     may use that variable instead, if you wish.
+
+     The argument HELP-STRING is a description of the option that looks
+     like this:
+            --with-readline         support fancy command line editing
+
+     HELP-STRING may be more than one line long, if more detail is
+     needed.  Just make sure the columns line up in `configure --help'.
+     Avoid tabs in the help string.  The easiest way to provide the
+     proper leading whitespace is to format your HELP-STRING with the
+     macro `AS_HELP_STRING' (*note Pretty Help Strings::).
+
+     The following example shows how to use the `AC_ARG_WITH' macro in
+     a common situation.  You want to let the user decide whether to
+     enable support for an external library (e.g., the readline
+     library); if the user specified neither `--with-readline' nor
+     `--without-readline', you want to enable support for readline only
+     if the library is available on the system.
+
+          AC_ARG_WITH([readline],
+            [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-readline],
+              [support fancy command line editing @<:@default=check@:>@])],
+            [],
+            [with_readline=check])
+
+          LIBREADLINE=
+          AS_IF([test "x$with_readline" != xno],
+            [AC_CHECK_LIB([readline], [main],
+              [AC_SUBST([LIBREADLINE], ["-lreadline -lncurses"])
+               AC_DEFINE([HAVE_LIBREADLINE], [1],
+                         [Define if you have libreadline])
+              ],
+              [if test "x$with_readline" != xcheck; then
+                 AC_MSG_FAILURE(
+                   [--with-readline was given, but test for readline failed])
+               fi
+              ], -lncurses)])
+
+     The next example shows how to use `AC_ARG_WITH' to give the user
+     the possibility to enable support for the readline library, in
+     case it is still experimental and not well tested, and is
+     therefore disabled by default.
+
+          AC_ARG_WITH([readline],
+            [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-readline],
+              [enable experimental support for readline])],
+            [],
+            [with_readline=no])
+
+          LIBREADLINE=
+          AS_IF([test "x$with_readline" != xno],
+            [AC_CHECK_LIB([readline], [main],
+              [AC_SUBST([LIBREADLINE], ["-lreadline -lncurses"])
+               AC_DEFINE([HAVE_LIBREADLINE], [1],
+                         [Define if you have libreadline])
+              ],
+              [AC_MSG_FAILURE(
+                 [--with-readline was given, but test for readline failed])],
+              [-lncurses])])
+
+     The last example shows how to use `AC_ARG_WITH' to give the user
+     the possibility to disable support for the readline library, given
+     that it is an important feature and that it should be enabled by
+     default.
+
+          AC_ARG_WITH([readline],
+            [AS_HELP_STRING([--without-readline],
+              [disable support for readline])],
+            [],
+            [with_readline=yes])
+
+          LIBREADLINE=
+          AS_IF([test "x$with_readline" != xno],
+            [AC_CHECK_LIB([readline], [main],
+              [AC_SUBST([LIBREADLINE], ["-lreadline -lncurses"])
+               AC_DEFINE([HAVE_LIBREADLINE], [1],
+                         [Define if you have libreadline])
+              ],
+              [AC_MSG_FAILURE(
+                 [readline test failed (--without-readline to disable)])],
+              [-lncurses])])
+
+     These three examples can be easily adapted to the case where
+     `AC_ARG_ENABLE' should be preferred to `AC_ARG_WITH' (see *note
+     Package Options::).

+
+15.3 Choosing Package Options
+=============================
+
+If a software package has optional compile-time features, the user can
+give `configure' command line options to specify whether to compile
+them.  The options have one of these forms:
+
+     --enable-FEATURE[=ARG]
+     --disable-FEATURE
+
+   These options allow users to choose which optional features to build
+and install.  `--enable-FEATURE' options should never make a feature
+behave differently or cause one feature to replace another.  They
+should only cause parts of the program to be built rather than left out.
+
+   The user can give an argument by following the feature name with `='
+and the argument.  Giving an argument of `no' requests that the feature
+_not_ be made available.  A feature with an argument looks like
+`--enable-debug=stabs'.  If no argument is given, it defaults to `yes'.
+`--disable-FEATURE' is equivalent to `--enable-FEATURE=no'.
+
+   Normally `configure' scripts complain about `--enable-PACKAGE'
+options that they do not support.  *Note Option Checking::, for
+details, and for how to override the defaults.
+
+   For each optional feature, `configure.ac' should call
+`AC_ARG_ENABLE' to detect whether the `configure' user asked to include
+it.  Whether each feature is included or not by default, and which
+arguments are valid, is up to you.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ARG_ENABLE (FEATURE, HELP-STRING, [ACTION-IF-GIVEN],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     If the user gave `configure' the option `--enable-FEATURE' or
+     `--disable-FEATURE', run shell commands ACTION-IF-GIVEN.  If
+     neither option was given, run shell commands ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN.
+     The name FEATURE indicates an optional user-level facility.  It
+     should consist only of alphanumeric characters, dashes, plus
+     signs, and dots.
+
+     The option's argument is available to the shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-GIVEN in the shell variable `enableval', which is
+     actually just the value of the shell variable named
+     `enable_FEATURE', with any non-alphanumeric characters in FEATURE
+     changed into `_'.  You may use that variable instead, if you wish.
+     The HELP-STRING argument is like that of `AC_ARG_WITH' (*note
+     External Software::).
+
+     You should format your HELP-STRING with the macro `AS_HELP_STRING'
+     (*note Pretty Help Strings::).
+
+     See the examples suggested with the definition of `AC_ARG_WITH'
+     (*note External Software::) to get an idea of possible
+     applications of `AC_ARG_ENABLE'.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Pretty Help Strings,  Next: Option Checking,  Prev: Package Options,  Up: Site Configuration
+
+15.4 Making Your Help Strings Look Pretty
+=========================================
+
+Properly formatting the `help strings' which are used in `AC_ARG_WITH'
+(*note External Software::) and `AC_ARG_ENABLE' (*note Package
+Options::) can be challenging.  Specifically, you want your own `help
+strings' to line up in the appropriate columns of `configure --help'
+just like the standard Autoconf `help strings' do.  This is the purpose
+of the `AS_HELP_STRING' macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AS_HELP_STRING (LEFT-HAND-SIDE, RIGHT-HAND-SIDE
+          [INDENT-COLUMN = `26'], [WRAP-COLUMN = `79'])
+     Expands into a help string that looks pretty when the user executes
+     `configure --help'.  It is typically used in `AC_ARG_WITH' (*note
+     External Software::) or `AC_ARG_ENABLE' (*note Package Options::).
+     The following example makes this clearer.
+
+          AC_ARG_WITH([foo],
+            [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-foo],
+               [use foo (default is no)])],
+            [use_foo=$withval],
+            [use_foo=no])
+
+     Then the last few lines of `configure --help' appear like this:
+
+          --enable and --with options recognized:
+            --with-foo              use foo (default is no)
+
+     Macro expansion is performed on the first argument.  However, the
+     second argument of `AS_HELP_STRING' is treated as a whitespace
+     separated list of text to be reformatted, and is not subject to
+     macro expansion.  Since it is not expanded, it should not be
+     double quoted.  *Note Autoconf Language::, for a more detailed
+     explanation.
+
+     The `AS_HELP_STRING' macro is particularly helpful when the
+     LEFT-HAND-SIDE and/or RIGHT-HAND-SIDE are composed of macro
+     arguments, as shown in the following example.  Be aware that

+
+15.5 Controlling Checking of `configure' Options
+================================================
+
+The `configure' script checks its command-line options against a list
+of known options, like `--help' or `--config-cache'.  An unknown option
+ordinarily indicates a mistake by the user and `configure' halts with
+an error.  However, by default unknown `--with-PACKAGE' and
+`--enable-FEATURE' options elicit only a warning, to support
+configuring entire source trees.
+
+   Source trees often contain multiple packages with a top-level
+`configure' script that uses the `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS' macro (*note
+Subdirectories::).  Because the packages generally support different
+`--with-PACKAGE' and `--enable-FEATURE' options, the GNU Coding
+Standards say they must accept unrecognized options without halting.
+Even a warning message is undesirable here, so `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS'
+automatically disables the warnings.
+
+   This default behavior may be modified in two ways.  First, the
+installer can invoke `configure --disable-option-checking' to disable
+these warnings, or invoke `configure --enable-option-checking=fatal'
+options to turn them into fatal errors, respectively.  Second, the
+maintainer can use `AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING
+     By default, disable warnings related to any unrecognized
+     `--with-PACKAGE' or `--enable-FEATURE' options.  This is implied
+     by `AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS'.
+
+     The installer can override this behavior by passing
+     `--enable-option-checking' (enable warnings) or
+     `--enable-option-checking=fatal' (enable errors) to `configure'.

+
+15.6 Configuring Site Details
+=============================
+
+Some software packages require complex site-specific information.  Some
+examples are host names to use for certain services, company names, and
+email addresses to contact.  Since some configuration scripts generated
+by Metaconfig ask for such information interactively, people sometimes
+wonder how to get that information in Autoconf-generated configuration
+scripts, which aren't interactive.
+
+   Such site configuration information should be put in a file that is
+edited _only by users_, not by programs.  The location of the file can
+either be based on the `prefix' variable, or be a standard location
+such as the user's home directory.  It could even be specified by an
+environment variable.  The programs should examine that file at
+runtime, rather than at compile time.  Runtime configuration is more
+convenient for users and makes the configuration process simpler than
+getting the information while configuring.  *Note Variables for
+Installation Directories: (standards)Directory Variables, for more
+information on where to put data files.

+
+15.7 Transforming Program Names When Installing
+===============================================
+
+Autoconf supports changing the names of programs when installing them.
+In order to use these transformations, `configure.ac' must call the
+macro `AC_ARG_PROGRAM'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ARG_PROGRAM
+     Place in output variable `program_transform_name' a sequence of
+     `sed' commands for changing the names of installed programs.
+
+     If any of the options described below are given to `configure',
+     program names are transformed accordingly.  Otherwise, if
+     `AC_CANONICAL_TARGET' has been called and a `--target' value is
+     given, the target type followed by a dash is used as a prefix.
+     Otherwise, no program name transformation is done.

+
+15.7.1 Transformation Options
+-----------------------------
+
+You can specify name transformations by giving `configure' these
+command line options:
+
+`--program-prefix=PREFIX'
+     prepend PREFIX to the names;
+
+`--program-suffix=SUFFIX'
+     append SUFFIX to the names;
+
+`--program-transform-name=EXPRESSION'
+     perform `sed' substitution EXPRESSION on the names.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Transformation Examples,  Next: Transformation Rules,  Prev: Transformation Options,  Up: Transforming Names
+
+15.7.2 Transformation Examples
+------------------------------
+
+These transformations are useful with programs that can be part of a
+cross-compilation development environment.  For example, a
+cross-assembler running on a Sun 4 configured with
+`--target=i960-vxworks' is normally installed as `i960-vxworks-as',
+rather than `as', which could be confused with a native Sun 4 assembler.
+
+   You can force a program name to begin with `g', if you don't want
+GNU programs installed on your system to shadow other programs with the
+same name.  For example, if you configure GNU `diff' with
+`--program-prefix=g', then when you run `make install' it is installed
+as `/usr/local/bin/gdiff'.
+
+   As a more sophisticated example, you could use
+
+     --program-transform-name='s/^/g/; s/^gg/g/; s/^gless/less/'
+   to prepend `g' to most of the program names in a source tree,
+excepting those like `gdb' that already have one and those like `less'
+and `lesskey' that aren't GNU programs.  (That is assuming that you
+have a source tree containing those programs that is set up to use this
+feature.)
+
+   One way to install multiple versions of some programs simultaneously
+is to append a version number to the name of one or both.  For example,
+if you want to keep Autoconf version 1 around for awhile, you can
+configure Autoconf version 2 using `--program-suffix=2' to install the
+programs as `/usr/local/bin/autoconf2', `/usr/local/bin/autoheader2',
+etc.  Nevertheless, pay attention that only the binaries are renamed,
+therefore you'd have problems with the library files which might
+overlap.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Transformation Rules,  Prev: Transformation Examples,  Up: Transforming Names
+
+15.7.3 Transformation Rules
+---------------------------
+
+Here is how to use the variable `program_transform_name' in a
+`Makefile.in':
+
+     PROGRAMS = cp ls rm
+     transform = @program_transform_name@
+     install:
+             for p in $(PROGRAMS); do \
+               $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) $$p $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/`echo $$p | \
+                                                   sed '$(transform)'`; \
+             done
+
+     uninstall:
+             for p in $(PROGRAMS); do \
+               rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/`echo $$p | sed '$(transform)'`; \
+             done
+
+   It is guaranteed that `program_transform_name' is never empty, and
+that there are no useless separators.  Therefore you may safely embed
+`program_transform_name' within a sed program using `;':
+
+     transform = @program_transform_name@
+     transform_exe = s/$(EXEEXT)$$//;$(transform);s/$$/$(EXEEXT)/
+
+   Whether to do the transformations on documentation files (Texinfo or
+`man') is a tricky question; there seems to be no perfect answer, due
+to the several reasons for name transforming.  Documentation is not
+usually particular to a specific architecture, and Texinfo files do not
+conflict with system documentation.  But they might conflict with
+earlier versions of the same files, and `man' pages sometimes do
+conflict with system documentation.  As a compromise, it is probably
+best to do name transformations on `man' pages but not on Texinfo
+manuals.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Site Defaults,  Prev: Transforming Names,  Up: Site Configuration
+
+15.8 Setting Site Defaults
+==========================
+
+Autoconf-generated `configure' scripts allow your site to provide
+default values for some configuration values.  You do this by creating
+site- and system-wide initialization files.
+
+   If the environment variable `CONFIG_SITE' is set, `configure' uses
+its value as the name of a shell script to read; it is recommended that
+this be an absolute file name.  Otherwise, it reads the shell script
+`PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then `PREFIX/etc/config.site'
+if it exists.  Thus, settings in machine-specific files override those
+in machine-independent ones in case of conflict.
+
+   Site files can be arbitrary shell scripts, but only certain kinds of
+code are really appropriate to be in them.  Because `configure' reads
+any cache file after it has read any site files, a site file can define
+a default cache file to be shared between all Autoconf-generated
+`configure' scripts run on that system (*note Cache Files::).  If you
+set a default cache file in a site file, it is a good idea to also set
+the output variable `CC' in that site file, because the cache file is
+only valid for a particular compiler, but many systems have several
+available.
+
+   You can examine or override the value set by a command line option to
+`configure' in a site file; options set shell variables that have the
+same names as the options, with any dashes turned into underscores.
+The exceptions are that `--without-' and `--disable-' options are like
+giving the corresponding `--with-' or `--enable-' option and the value
+`no'.  Thus, `--cache-file=localcache' sets the variable `cache_file'
+to the value `localcache'; `--enable-warnings=no' or
+`--disable-warnings' sets the variable `enable_warnings' to the value
+`no'; `--prefix=/usr' sets the variable `prefix' to the value `/usr';
+etc.
+
+   Site files are also good places to set default values for other
+output variables, such as `CFLAGS', if you need to give them non-default
+values: anything you would normally do, repetitively, on the command
+line.  If you use non-default values for PREFIX or EXEC_PREFIX
+(wherever you locate the site file), you can set them in the site file
+if you specify it with the `CONFIG_SITE' environment variable.
+
+   You can set some cache values in the site file itself.  Doing this is
+useful if you are cross-compiling, where it is impossible to check
+features that require running a test program.  You could "prime the
+cache" by setting those values correctly for that system in
+`PREFIX/etc/config.site'.  To find out the names of the cache variables
+you need to set, see the documentation of the respective Autoconf
+macro.  If the variables or their semantics are undocumented, you may
+need to look for shell variables with `_cv_' in their names in the
+affected `configure' scripts, or in the Autoconf M4 source code for
+those macros; but in that case, their name or semantics may change in a
+future Autoconf version.
+
+   The cache file is careful to not override any variables set in the
+site files.  Similarly, you should not override command-line options in
+the site files.  Your code should check that variables such as `prefix'
+and `cache_file' have their default values (as set near the top of
+`configure') before changing them.
+
+   Here is a sample file `/usr/share/local/gnu/share/config.site'.  The
+command `configure --prefix=/usr/share/local/gnu' would read this file
+(if `CONFIG_SITE' is not set to a different file).
+
+     # /usr/share/local/gnu/share/config.site for configure
+     #
+     # Change some defaults.
+     test "$prefix" = NONE && prefix=/usr/share/local/gnu
+     test "$exec_prefix" = NONE && exec_prefix=/usr/local/gnu
+     test "$sharedstatedir" = '${prefix}/com' && sharedstatedir=/var
+     test "$localstatedir" = '${prefix}/var' && localstatedir=/var
+
+     # Give Autoconf 2.x generated configure scripts a shared default
+     # cache file for feature test results, architecture-specific.
+     if test "$cache_file" = /dev/null; then
+       cache_file="$prefix/var/config.cache"
+       # A cache file is only valid for one C compiler.
+       CC=gcc
+     fi
+
+   Another use of `config.site' is for priming the directory variables
+in a manner consistent with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS).
+Once the following file is installed at `/usr/share/config.site', a
+user can execute simply `./configure --prefix=/usr' to get all the
+directories chosen in the locations recommended by FHS.
+
+     # /usr/share/config.site for FHS defaults when installing below /usr,
+     # and the respective settings were not changed on the command line.
+     if test "$prefix" = /usr; then
+       test "$sysconfdir" = '${prefix}/etc' && sysconfdir=/etc
+       test "$sharedstatedir" = '${prefix}/com' && sharedstatedir=/var
+       test "$localstatedir" = '${prefix}/var' && localstatedir=/var
+     fi
+
+   Likewise, on platforms where 64-bit libraries are built by default,
+then installed in `/usr/local/lib64' instead of `/usr/local/lib', it is
+appropriate to install `/usr/local/share/config.site':
+
+     # /usr/local/share/config.site for platforms that prefer
+     # the directory /usr/local/lib64 over /usr/local/lib.
+     test "$libdir" = '${exec_prefix}/lib' && libdir='${exec_prefix}/lib64'

+
+16.1 Basic Installation
+=======================
+
+Briefly, the shell commands `./configure; make; make install' should
+configure, build, and install this package.  The following
+more-detailed instructions are generic; see the `README' file for
+instructions specific to this package.  More recommendations for GNU
+packages can be found in *note Makefile Conventions:
+(standards)Makefile Conventions.
+
+   The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
+various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
+those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
+It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
+definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
+you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
+file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
+debugging `configure').
+
+   It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
+and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
+the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring.  Caching is
+disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
+cache files.
+
+   If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
+to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
+diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
+be considered for the next release.  If you are using the cache, and at
+some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
+may remove or edit it.
+
+   The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
+`configure' by a program called `autoconf'.  You need `configure.ac' if
+you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version
+of `autoconf'.
+
+   The simplest way to compile this package is:
+
+  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
+     `./configure' to configure the package for your system.
+
+     Running `configure' might take a while.  While running, it prints
+     some messages telling which features it is checking for.
+
+  2. Type `make' to compile the package.
+
+  3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
+     the package, generally using the just-built uninstalled binaries.
+
+  4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
+     documentation.  When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is
+     recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular
+     user, and only the `make install' phase executed with root
+     privileges.
+
+  5. Optionally, type `make installcheck' to repeat any self-tests, but
+     this time using the binaries in their final installed location.
+     This target does not install anything.  Running this target as a
+     regular user, particularly if the prior `make install' required
+     root privileges, verifies that the installation completed
+     correctly.
+
+  6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
+     source code directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
+     files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
+     a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.  There is
+     also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
+     for the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get
+     all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
+     with the distribution.
+
+  7. Often, you can also type `make uninstall' to remove the installed
+     files again.  In practice, not all packages have tested that
+     uninstallation works correctly, even though it is required by the
+     GNU Coding Standards.
+
+  8. Some packages, particularly those that use Automake, provide `make
+     distcheck', which can by used by developers to test that all other
+     targets like `make install' and `make uninstall' work correctly.
+     This target is generally not run by end users.

+
+16.2 Compilers and Options
+==========================
+
+Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that the
+`configure' script does not know about.  Run `./configure --help' for
+details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
+
+   You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
+by setting variables in the command line or in the environment.  Here
+is an example:
+
+     ./configure CC=c99 CFLAGS=-g LIBS=-lposix
+
+   *Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Multiple Architectures,  Next: Installation Names,  Prev: Compilers and Options,  Up: Running configure Scripts
+
+16.3 Compiling For Multiple Architectures
+=========================================
+
+You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
+same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
+own directory.  To do this, you can use GNU `make'.  `cd' to the
+directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
+the `configure' script.  `configure' automatically checks for the
+source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.  This
+is known as a "VPATH" build.
+
+   With a non-GNU `make', it is safer to compile the package for one
+architecture at a time in the source code directory.  After you have
+installed the package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before
+reconfiguring for another architecture.
+
+   On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
+executables that work on multiple system types--known as "fat" or
+"universal" binaries--by specifying multiple `-arch' options to the
+compiler but only a single `-arch' option to the preprocessor.  Like
+this:
+
+     ./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+                 CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+                 CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
+
+   This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you
+may have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
+using the `lipo' tool if you have problems.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Installation Names,  Next: Optional Features,  Prev: Multiple Architectures,  Up: Running configure Scripts
+
+16.4 Installation Names
+=======================
+
+By default, `make install' installs the package's commands under
+`/usr/local/bin', include files under `/usr/local/include', etc.  You
+can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
+`configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an
+absolute file name.
+
+   You can specify separate installation prefixes for
+architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files.  If you
+pass the option `--exec-prefix=PREFIX' to `configure', the package uses
+PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
+Documentation and other data files still use the regular prefix.
+
+   In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
+options like `--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
+kinds of files.  Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
+you can set and what kinds of files go in them.  In general, the
+default for these options is expressed in terms of `${prefix}', so that
+specifying just `--prefix' will affect all of the other directory
+specifications that were not explicitly provided.
+
+   The most portable way to affect installation locations is to pass the
+correct locations to `configure'; however, many packages provide one or
+both of the following shortcuts of passing variable assignments to the
+`make install' command line to change installation locations without
+having to reconfigure or recompile.
+
+   The first method involves providing an override variable for each
+affected directory.  For example, `make install
+prefix=/alternate/directory' will choose an alternate location for all
+directory configuration variables that were expressed in terms of
+`${prefix}'.  Any directories that were specified during `configure',
+but not in terms of `${prefix}', must each be overridden at install
+time for the entire installation to be relocated.  The approach of
+makefile variable overrides for each directory variable is required by
+the GNU Coding Standards, and ideally causes no recompilation.
+However, some platforms have known limitations with the semantics of
+shared libraries that end up requiring recompilation when using this
+method, particularly noticeable in packages that use GNU Libtool.
+
+   The second method involves providing the `DESTDIR' variable.  For
+example, `make install DESTDIR=/alternate/directory' will prepend
+`/alternate/directory' before all installation names.  The approach of
+`DESTDIR' overrides is not required by the GNU Coding Standards, and
+does not work on platforms that have drive letters.  On the other hand,
+it does better at avoiding recompilation issues, and works well even
+when some directory options were not specified in terms of `${prefix}'
+at `configure' time.

+
+16.5 Optional Features
+======================
+
+If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed with
+an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
+option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
+
+   Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
+`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
+They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
+is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System).  The
+`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
+package recognizes.
+
+   For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
+find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
+you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
+`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
+
+   Some packages offer the ability to configure how verbose the
+execution of `make' will be.  For these packages, running `./configure
+--enable-silent-rules' sets the default to minimal output, which can be
+overridden with `make V=1'; while running `./configure
+--disable-silent-rules' sets the default to verbose, which can be
+overridden with `make V=0'.

+
+16.6 Particular systems
+=======================
+
+On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible.  If GNU CC is
+not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in order
+to use an ANSI C compiler:
+
+     ./configure CC="cc -Ae -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500"
+
+and if that doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of GCC for HP-UX.
+
+   HP-UX `make' updates targets which have the same time stamps as
+their prerequisites, which makes it generally unusable when shipped
+generated files such as `configure' are involved.  Use GNU `make'
+instead.
+
+   On OSF/1 a.k.a. Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot
+parse its `<wchar.h>' header file.  The option `-nodtk' can be used as
+a workaround.  If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore recommended
+to try
+
+     ./configure CC="cc"
+
+and if that doesn't work, try
+
+     ./configure CC="cc -nodtk"
+
+   On Solaris, don't put `/usr/ucb' early in your `PATH'.  This
+directory contains several dysfunctional programs; working variants of
+these programs are available in `/usr/bin'.  So, if you need `/usr/ucb'
+in your `PATH', put it _after_ `/usr/bin'.
+
+   On Haiku, software installed for all users goes in `/boot/common',
+not `/usr/local'.  It is recommended to use the following options:
+
+     ./configure --prefix=/boot/common
+
+

+
+16.7 Specifying the System Type
+===============================
+
+There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out automatically,
+but needs to determine by the type of machine the package will run on.
+Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the _same_
+architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints a
+message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
+`--build=TYPE' option.  TYPE can either be a short name for the system
+type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
+
+     CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
+
+where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
+
+     OS
+     KERNEL-OS
+
+   See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field.  If
+`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
+need to know the machine type.
+
+   If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
+use the option `--target=TYPE' to select the type of system they will
+produce code for.
+
+   If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
+platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
+"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
+eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Sharing Defaults,  Next: Defining Variables,  Prev: System Type,  Up: Running configure Scripts
+
+16.8 Sharing Defaults
+=====================
+
+If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share, you
+can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives default
+values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
+`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
+`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists.  Or, you can set the
+`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
+A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Defining Variables,  Next: configure Invocation,  Prev: Sharing Defaults,  Up: Running configure Scripts
+
+16.9 Defining Variables
+=======================
+
+Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
+environment passed to `configure'.  However, some packages may run
+configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
+variables may be lost.  In order to avoid this problem, you should set
+them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'.  For example:
+
+     ./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
+
+causes the specified `gcc' to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
+overridden in the site shell script).
+
+Unfortunately, this technique does not work for `CONFIG_SHELL' due to
+an Autoconf limitation.  Until the limitation is lifted, you can use
+this workaround:
+
+     CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash ./configure CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: configure Invocation,  Prev: Defining Variables,  Up: Running configure Scripts
+
+16.10 `configure' Invocation
+============================
+
+`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it operates.
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of all of the options to `configure', and exit.
+
+`--help=short'
+`--help=recursive'
+     Print a summary of the options unique to this package's
+     `configure', and exit.  The `short' variant lists options used
+     only in the top level, while the `recursive' variant lists options
+     also present in any nested packages.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
+     script, and exit.
+
+`--cache-file=FILE'
+     Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
+     traditionally `config.cache'.  FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
+     disable caching.
+
+`--config-cache'
+`-C'
+     Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
+
+`--quiet'
+`--silent'
+`-q'
+     Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To
+     suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
+     messages will still be shown).
+
+`--srcdir=DIR'
+     Look for the package's source code in directory DIR.  Usually
+     `configure' can determine that directory automatically.
+
+`--prefix=DIR'
+     Use DIR as the installation prefix.  *note Installation Names::
+     for more details, including other options available for fine-tuning
+     the installation locations.
+
+`--no-create'
+`-n'
+     Run the configure checks, but stop before creating any output
+     files.
+
+`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.  Run
+`configure --help' for more details.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: config.status Invocation,  Next: Obsolete Constructs,  Prev: Running configure Scripts,  Up: Top
+
+17 config.status Invocation
+***************************
+
+The `configure' script creates a file named `config.status', which
+actually configures, "instantiates", the template files.  It also
+records the configuration options that were specified when the package
+was last configured in case reconfiguring is needed.
+
+   Synopsis:
+     ./config.status [OPTION]... [TAG]...
+
+   It configures each TAG; if none are specified, all the templates are
+instantiated.  A TAG refers to a file or other tag associated with a
+configuration action, as specified by an `AC_CONFIG_ITEMS' macro (*note
+Configuration Actions::).  The files must be specified without their
+dependencies, as in
+
+     ./config.status foobar
+
+not
+
+     ./config.status foobar:foo.in:bar.in
+
+   The supported options are:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options, the list of the
+     template files, and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and the configuration
+     settings, and exit.
+
+`--config'
+     Print the configuration settings in reusable way, quoted for the
+     shell, and exit.  For example, for a debugging build that
+     otherwise reuses the configuration from a different build
+     directory BUILD-DIR of a package in SRC-DIR, you could use the
+     following:
+
+          args=`BUILD-DIR/config.status --config`
+          eval SRC-DIR/configure "$args" CFLAGS=-g --srcdir=SRC-DIR
+
+     Note that it may be necessary to override a `--srcdir' setting
+     that was saved in the configuration, if the arguments are used in a
+     different build directory.
+
+`--silent'
+`--quiet'
+`-q'
+     Do not print progress messages.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+`--file=FILE[:TEMPLATE]'
+     Require that FILE be instantiated as if
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES(FILE:TEMPLATE)' was used.  Both FILE and TEMPLATE
+     may be `-' in which case the standard output and/or standard
+     input, respectively, is used.  If a TEMPLATE file name is
+     relative, it is first looked for in the build tree, and then in
+     the source tree.  *Note Configuration Actions::, for more details.
+
+     This option and the following ones provide one way for separately
+     distributed packages to share the values computed by `configure'.
+     Doing so can be useful if some of the packages need a superset of
+     the features that one of them, perhaps a common library, does.
+     These options allow a `config.status' file to create files other
+     than the ones that its `configure.ac' specifies, so it can be used
+     for a different package, or for extracting a subset of values.
+     For example,
+
+          echo '@CC@' | ./config.status --file=-
+
+     provides the value of `@CC@' on standard output.
+
+`--header=FILE[:TEMPLATE]'
+     Same as `--file' above, but with `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'.
+
+`--recheck'
+     Ask `config.status' to update itself and exit (no instantiation).
+     This option is useful if you change `configure', so that the
+     results of some tests might be different from the previous run.
+     The `--recheck' option reruns `configure' with the same arguments
+     you used before, plus the `--no-create' option, which prevents
+     `configure' from running `config.status' and creating `Makefile'
+     and other files, and the `--no-recursion' option, which prevents
+     `configure' from running other `configure' scripts in
+     subdirectories.  (This is so other Make rules can run
+     `config.status' when it changes; *note Automatic Remaking::, for
+     an example).
+
+   `config.status' checks several optional environment variables that
+can alter its behavior:
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_SHELL
+     The shell with which to run `configure'.  It must be
+     Bourne-compatible, and the absolute name of the shell should be
+     passed.  The default is a shell that supports `LINENO' if
+     available, and `/bin/sh' otherwise.
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_STATUS
+     The file name to use for the shell script that records the
+     configuration.  The default is `./config.status'.  This variable is
+     useful when one package uses parts of another and the `configure'
+     scripts shouldn't be merged because they are maintained separately.
+
+   You can use `./config.status' in your makefiles.  For example, in
+the dependencies given above (*note Automatic Remaking::),
+`config.status' is run twice when `configure.ac' has changed.  If that
+bothers you, you can make each run only regenerate the files for that
+rule:
+     config.h: stamp-h
+     stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+             ./config.status config.h
+             echo > stamp-h
+
+     Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+             ./config.status Makefile
+
+   The calling convention of `config.status' has changed; see *note
+Obsolete config.status Use::, for details.

+18 Obsolete Constructs
+**********************
+
+Autoconf changes, and throughout the years some constructs have been
+obsoleted.  Most of the changes involve the macros, but in some cases
+the tools themselves, or even some concepts, are now considered
+obsolete.

+
+18.1 Obsolete `config.status' Invocation
+========================================
+
+`config.status' now supports arguments to specify the files to
+instantiate; see *note config.status Invocation::, for more details.
+Before, environment variables had to be used.
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_COMMANDS
+     The tags of the commands to execute.  The default is the arguments
+     given to `AC_OUTPUT' and `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' in `configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_FILES
+     The files in which to perform `@VARIABLE@' substitutions.  The
+     default is the arguments given to `AC_OUTPUT' and
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES' in `configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_HEADERS
+     The files in which to substitute C `#define' statements.  The
+     default is the arguments given to `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'; if that
+     macro was not called, `config.status' ignores this variable.
+
+ -- Variable: CONFIG_LINKS
+     The symbolic links to establish.  The default is the arguments
+     given to `AC_CONFIG_LINKS'; if that macro was not called,
+     `config.status' ignores this variable.
+
+   In *note config.status Invocation::, using this old interface, the
+example would be:
+
+     config.h: stamp-h
+     stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+             CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_FILES= \
+               CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h ./config.status
+             echo > stamp-h
+
+     Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+             CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_HEADERS= \
+               CONFIG_FILES=Makefile ./config.status
+
+(If `configure.ac' does not call `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS', there is no need
+to set `CONFIG_HEADERS' in the `make' rules.  Equally for
+`CONFIG_COMMANDS', etc.)
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: acconfig Header,  Next: autoupdate Invocation,  Prev: Obsolete config.status Use,  Up: Obsolete Constructs
+
+18.2 `acconfig.h'
+=================
+
+In order to produce `config.h.in', `autoheader' needs to build or to
+find templates for each symbol.  Modern releases of Autoconf use
+`AH_VERBATIM' and `AH_TEMPLATE' (*note Autoheader Macros::), but in
+older releases a file, `acconfig.h', contained the list of needed
+templates.  `autoheader' copied comments and `#define' and `#undef'
+statements from `acconfig.h' in the current directory, if present.
+This file used to be mandatory if you `AC_DEFINE' any additional
+symbols.
+
+   Modern releases of Autoconf also provide `AH_TOP' and `AH_BOTTOM' if
+you need to prepend/append some information to `config.h.in'.  Ancient
+versions of Autoconf had a similar feature: if `./acconfig.h' contains
+the string `@TOP@', `autoheader' copies the lines before the line
+containing `@TOP@' into the top of the file that it generates.
+Similarly, if `./acconfig.h' contains the string `@BOTTOM@',
+`autoheader' copies the lines after that line to the end of the file it
+generates.  Either or both of those strings may be omitted.  An even
+older alternate way to produce the same effect in ancient versions of
+Autoconf is to create the files `FILE.top' (typically `config.h.top')
+and/or `FILE.bot' in the current directory.  If they exist,
+`autoheader' copies them to the beginning and end, respectively, of its
+output.
+
+   In former versions of Autoconf, the files used in preparing a
+software package for distribution were:
+     configure.ac --.   .------> autoconf* -----> configure
+                    +---+
+     [aclocal.m4] --+   `---.
+     [acsite.m4] ---'       |
+                            +--> [autoheader*] -> [config.h.in]
+     [acconfig.h] ----.     |
+                      +-----'
+     [config.h.top] --+
+     [config.h.bot] --'
+
+   Using only the `AH_' macros, `configure.ac' should be
+self-contained, and should not depend upon `acconfig.h' etc.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: autoupdate Invocation,  Next: Obsolete Macros,  Prev: acconfig Header,  Up: Obsolete Constructs
+
+18.3 Using `autoupdate' to Modernize `configure.ac'
+===================================================
+
+The `autoupdate' program updates a `configure.ac' file that calls
+Autoconf macros by their old names to use the current macro names.  In
+version 2 of Autoconf, most of the macros were renamed to use a more
+uniform and descriptive naming scheme.  *Note Macro Names::, for a
+description of the new scheme.  Although the old names still work
+(*note Obsolete Macros::, for a list of the old macros and the
+corresponding new names), you can make your `configure.ac' files more
+readable and make it easier to use the current Autoconf documentation
+if you update them to use the new macro names.
+
+   If given no arguments, `autoupdate' updates `configure.ac', backing
+up the original version with the suffix `~' (or the value of the
+environment variable `SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX', if that is set).  If you
+give `autoupdate' an argument, it reads that file instead of
+`configure.ac' and writes the updated file to the standard output.
+
+`autoupdate' accepts the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Report processing steps.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+     Force the update even if the file has not changed.  Disregard the
+     cache.
+
+`--include=DIR'
+`-I DIR'
+     Also look for input files in DIR.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+     Directories are browsed from last to first.
+
+`--prepend-include=DIR'
+`-B DIR'
+     Prepend directory DIR to the search path.  This is used to include
+     the language-specific files before any third-party macros.

+
+18.4 Obsolete Macros
+====================
+
+Several macros are obsoleted in Autoconf, for various reasons (typically
+they failed to quote properly, couldn't be extended for more recent
+issues, etc.).  They are still supported, but deprecated: their use
+should be avoided.
+
+   During the jump from Autoconf version 1 to version 2, most of the
+macros were renamed to use a more uniform and descriptive naming scheme,
+but their signature did not change.  *Note Macro Names::, for a
+description of the new naming scheme.  Below, if there is just the
+mapping from old names to new names for these macros, the reader is
+invited to refer to the definition of the new macro for the signature
+and the description.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_AIX
+     This macro is a platform-specific subset of
+     `AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS' (*note AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ALLOCA
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_ALLOCA' (*note AC_FUNC_ALLOCA::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ARG_ARRAY
+     Removed because of limited usefulness.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_CROSS
+     This macro is obsolete; it does nothing.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE
+     If the C compiler supports a working `long double' type with more
+     range or precision than the `double' type, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE'.
+
+     You should use `AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE' or
+     `AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER' instead.  *Note Particular Types::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM
+     Determine the system type and set output variables to the names of
+     the canonical system types.  *Note Canonicalizing::, for details
+     about the variables this macro sets.
+
+     The user is encouraged to use either `AC_CANONICAL_BUILD', or
+     `AC_CANONICAL_HOST', or `AC_CANONICAL_TARGET', depending on the
+     needs.  Using `AC_CANONICAL_TARGET' is enough to run the two other
+     macros (*note Canonicalizing::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHAR_UNSIGNED
+     Replaced by `AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED' (*note AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECK_TYPE (TYPE, DEFAULT)
+     Autoconf, up to 2.13, used to provide this version of
+     `AC_CHECK_TYPE', deprecated because of its flaws.  First, although
+     it is a member of the `CHECK' clan, it does more than just
+     checking.  Secondly, missing types are defined using `#define',
+     not `typedef', and this can lead to problems in the case of
+     pointer types.
+
+     This use of `AC_CHECK_TYPE' is obsolete and discouraged; see *note
+     Generic Types::, for the description of the current macro.
+
+     If the type TYPE is not defined, define it to be the C (or C++)
+     builtin type DEFAULT, e.g., `short int' or `unsigned int'.
+
+     This macro is equivalent to:
+
+          AC_CHECK_TYPE([TYPE], [],
+            [AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([TYPE], [DEFAULT],
+               [Define to `DEFAULT'
+                if <sys/types.h> does not define.])])
+
+     In order to keep backward compatibility, the two versions of
+     `AC_CHECK_TYPE' are implemented, selected using these heuristics:
+
+       1. If there are three or four arguments, the modern version is
+          used.
+
+       2. If the second argument appears to be a C or C++ type, then the
+          obsolete version is used.  This happens if the argument is a
+          C or C++ _builtin_ type or a C identifier ending in `_t',
+          optionally followed by one of `[(* ' and then by a string of
+          zero or more characters taken from the set `[]()* _a-zA-Z0-9'.
+
+       3. If the second argument is spelled with the alphabet of valid
+          C and C++ types, the user is warned and the modern version is
+          used.
+
+       4. Otherwise, the modern version is used.
+
+     You are encouraged either to use a valid builtin type, or to use
+     the equivalent modern code (see above), or better yet, to use
+     `AC_CHECK_TYPES' together with
+
+          #ifndef HAVE_LOFF_T
+          typedef loff_t off_t;
+          #endif
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CHECKING (FEATURE-DESCRIPTION)
+     Same as
+
+          AC_MSG_NOTICE([checking FEATURE-DESCRIPTION...]
+
+     *Note AC_MSG_NOTICE::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_COMPILE_CHECK (ECHO-TEXT, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY,
+          ACTION-IF-TRUE, [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+     This is an obsolete version of `AC_TRY_COMPILE' itself replaced by
+     `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' (*note Running the Compiler::), with the
+     addition that it prints `checking for ECHO-TEXT' to the standard
+     output first, if ECHO-TEXT is non-empty.  Use `AC_MSG_CHECKING'
+     and `AC_MSG_RESULT' instead to print messages (*note Printing
+     Messages::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CONST
+     Replaced by `AC_C_CONST' (*note AC_C_CONST::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CROSS_CHECK
+     Same as `AC_C_CROSS', which is obsolete too, and does nothing
+     `:-)'.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_CYGWIN
+     Check for the Cygwin environment in which case the shell variable
+     `CYGWIN' is set to `yes'.  Don't use this macro, the dignified
+     means to check the nature of the host is using `AC_CANONICAL_HOST'
+     (*note Canonicalizing::).  As a matter of fact this macro is
+     defined as:
+
+          AC_REQUIRE([AC_CANONICAL_HOST])[]dnl
+          case $host_os in
+            *cygwin* ) CYGWIN=yes;;
+                   * ) CYGWIN=no;;
+          esac
+
+     Beware that the variable `CYGWIN' has a special meaning when
+     running Cygwin, and should not be changed.  That's yet another
+     reason not to use this macro.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST
+     Same as:
+
+          AC_CHECK_DECLS([sys_siglist], [], [],
+          [#include <signal.h>
+          /* NetBSD declares sys_siglist in unistd.h.  */
+          #ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+          # include <unistd.h>
+          #endif
+          ])
+
+     *Note AC_CHECK_DECLS::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DECL_YYTEXT
+     Does nothing, now integrated in `AC_PROG_LEX' (*note
+     AC_PROG_LEX::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DIR_HEADER
+     Like calling `AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID' (*note
+     AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID::) and `AC_HEADER_DIRENT' (*note
+     AC_HEADER_DIRENT::), but defines a different set of C preprocessor
+     macros to indicate which header file is found:
+
+     Header         Old Symbol   New Symbol
+     `dirent.h'     `DIRENT'     `HAVE_DIRENT_H'
+     `sys/ndir.h'   `SYSNDIR'    `HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H'
+     `sys/dir.h'    `SYSDIR'     `HAVE_SYS_DIR_H'
+     `ndir.h'       `NDIR'       `HAVE_NDIR_H'
+
+ -- Macro: AC_DYNIX_SEQ
+     If on DYNIX/ptx, add `-lseq' to output variable `LIBS'.  This
+     macro used to be defined as
+
+          AC_CHECK_LIB([seq], [getmntent], [LIBS="-lseq $LIBS"])
+
+     now it is just `AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT' (*note AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_EXEEXT
+     Defined the output variable `EXEEXT' based on the output of the
+     compiler, which is now done automatically.  Typically set to empty
+     string if Posix and `.exe' if a DOS variant.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_EMXOS2
+     Similar to `AC_CYGWIN' but checks for the EMX environment on OS/2
+     and sets `EMXOS2'.  Don't use this macro, the dignified means to
+     check the nature of the host is using `AC_CANONICAL_HOST' (*note
+     Canonicalizing::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ENABLE (FEATURE, ACTION-IF-GIVEN, [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     This is an obsolete version of `AC_ARG_ENABLE' that does not
+     support providing a help string (*note AC_ARG_ENABLE::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ERROR
+     Replaced by `AC_MSG_ERROR' (*note AC_MSG_ERROR::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FIND_X
+     Replaced by `AC_PATH_X' (*note AC_PATH_X::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FIND_XTRA
+     Replaced by `AC_PATH_XTRA' (*note AC_PATH_XTRA::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FOREACH
+     Replaced by `m4_foreach_w' (*note m4_foreach_w::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_CHECK
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_FUNC' (*note AC_CHECK_FUNC::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED
+     Do nothing.  Formerly, this macro checked whether `setvbuf' takes
+     the buffering type as its second argument and the buffer pointer
+     as the third, instead of the other way around, and defined
+     `SETVBUF_REVERSED'.  However, the last systems to have the problem
+     were those based on SVR2, which became obsolete in 1987, and the
+     macro is no longer needed.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_FUNC_WAIT3
+     If `wait3' is found and fills in the contents of its third argument
+     (a `struct rusage *'), which HP-UX does not do, define
+     `HAVE_WAIT3'.
+
+     These days portable programs should use `waitpid', not `wait3', as
+     `wait3' has been removed from Posix.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_GCC_TRADITIONAL
+     Replaced by `AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL' (*note
+     AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_GETGROUPS_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS' (*note AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_GETLOADAVG
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG' (*note AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_GNU_SOURCE
+     This macro is a platform-specific subset of
+     `AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS' (*note AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HAVE_FUNCS
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_FUNCS' (*note AC_CHECK_FUNCS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HAVE_HEADERS
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_HEADERS' (*note AC_CHECK_HEADERS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HAVE_LIBRARY (LIBRARY, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND], [OTHER-LIBRARIES])
+     This macro is equivalent to calling `AC_CHECK_LIB' with a FUNCTION
+     argument of `main'.  In addition, LIBRARY can be written as any of
+     `foo', `-lfoo', or `libfoo.a'.  In all of those cases, the
+     compiler is passed `-lfoo'.  However, LIBRARY cannot be a shell
+     variable; it must be a literal name.  *Note AC_CHECK_LIB::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG
+     Replaced by `AC_SYS_INTERPRETER' (*note AC_SYS_INTERPRETER::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_CHECK
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_HEADER' (*note AC_CHECK_HEADER::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HEADER_EGREP
+     Replaced by `AC_EGREP_HEADER' (*note AC_EGREP_HEADER::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_HELP_STRING
+     Replaced by `AS_HELP_STRING' (*note AS_HELP_STRING::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_INIT (UNIQUE-FILE-IN-SOURCE-DIR)
+     Formerly `AC_INIT' used to have a single argument, and was
+     equivalent to:
+
+          AC_INIT
+          AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR(UNIQUE-FILE-IN-SOURCE-DIR)
+     See *note AC_INIT:: and *note AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_INLINE
+     Replaced by `AC_C_INLINE' (*note AC_C_INLINE::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_INT_16_BITS
+     If the C type `int' is 16 bits wide, define `INT_16_BITS'.  Use
+     `AC_CHECK_SIZEOF(int)' instead (*note AC_CHECK_SIZEOF::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_IRIX_SUN
+     If on IRIX (Silicon Graphics Unix), add `-lsun' to output `LIBS'.
+     If you were using it to get `getmntent', use `AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT'
+     instead.  If you used it for the NIS versions of the password and
+     group functions, use `AC_CHECK_LIB(sun, getpwnam)'.  Up to
+     Autoconf 2.13, it used to be
+
+          AC_CHECK_LIB([sun], [getmntent], [LIBS="-lsun $LIBS"])
+
+     now it is defined as
+
+          AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT
+          AC_CHECK_LIB([sun], [getpwnam])
+
+     See *note AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT:: and *note AC_CHECK_LIB::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ISC_POSIX
+     This macro adds `-lcposix' to output variable `LIBS' if necessary
+     for Posix facilities.  Sun dropped support for the obsolete
+     INTERACTIVE Systems Corporation Unix on 2006-07-23.  New programs
+     need not use this macro.  It is implemented as
+     `AC_SEARCH_LIBS([strerror], [cposix])' (*note AC_SEARCH_LIBS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_C
+     Same as `AC_LANG([C])' (*note AC_LANG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS
+     Same as `AC_LANG([C++])' (*note AC_LANG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_FORTRAN77
+     Same as `AC_LANG([Fortran 77])' (*note AC_LANG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_RESTORE
+     Select the LANGUAGE that is saved on the top of the stack, as set
+     by `AC_LANG_SAVE', remove it from the stack, and call
+     `AC_LANG(LANGUAGE)'.  *Note Language Choice::, for the preferred
+     way to change languages.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LANG_SAVE
+     Remember the current language (as set by `AC_LANG') on a stack.
+     The current language does not change.  `AC_LANG_PUSH' is preferred
+     (*note AC_LANG_PUSH::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LINK_FILES (SOURCE..., DEST...)
+     This is an obsolete version of `AC_CONFIG_LINKS' (*note
+     AC_CONFIG_LINKS::.  An updated version of:
+
+          AC_LINK_FILES(config/$machine.h config/$obj_format.h,
+                        host.h            object.h)
+
+     is:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_LINKS([host.h:config/$machine.h
+                          object.h:config/$obj_format.h])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LN_S
+     Replaced by `AC_PROG_LN_S' (*note AC_PROG_LN_S::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LONG_64_BITS
+     Define `LONG_64_BITS' if the C type `long int' is 64 bits wide.
+     Use the generic macro `AC_CHECK_SIZEOF([long int])' instead (*note
+     AC_CHECK_SIZEOF::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LONG_DOUBLE
+     If the C compiler supports a working `long double' type with more
+     range or precision than the `double' type, define
+     `HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE'.
+
+     You should use `AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE' or
+     `AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER' instead.  *Note Particular Types::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES
+     Replaced by
+          AC_SYS_LONG_FILE_NAMES
+     *Note AC_SYS_LONG_FILE_NAMES::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MAJOR_HEADER
+     Replaced by `AC_HEADER_MAJOR' (*note AC_HEADER_MAJOR::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MEMORY_H
+     Used to define `NEED_MEMORY_H' if the `mem' functions were defined
+     in `memory.h'.  Today it is equivalent to
+     `AC_CHECK_HEADERS([memory.h])' (*note AC_CHECK_HEADERS::).  Adjust
+     your code to depend upon `HAVE_MEMORY_H', not `NEED_MEMORY_H'; see
+     *note Standard Symbols::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MINGW32
+     Similar to `AC_CYGWIN' but checks for the MinGW compiler
+     environment and sets `MINGW32'.  Don't use this macro, the
+     dignified means to check the nature of the host is using
+     `AC_CANONICAL_HOST' (*note Canonicalizing::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MINIX
+     This macro is a platform-specific subset of
+     `AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS' (*note AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O
+     Replaced by `AC_PROG_CC_C_O' (*note AC_PROG_CC_C_O::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MMAP
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_MMAP' (*note AC_FUNC_MMAP::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_MODE_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_MODE_T' (*note AC_TYPE_MODE_T::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OBJEXT
+     Defined the output variable `OBJEXT' based on the output of the
+     compiler, after .c files have been excluded.  Typically set to `o'
+     if Posix, `obj' if a DOS variant.  Now the compiler checking
+     macros handle this automatically.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OBSOLETE (THIS-MACRO-NAME, [SUGGESTION])
+     Make M4 print a message to the standard error output warning that
+     THIS-MACRO-NAME is obsolete, and giving the file and line number
+     where it was called.  THIS-MACRO-NAME should be the name of the
+     macro that is calling `AC_OBSOLETE'.  If SUGGESTION is given, it
+     is printed at the end of the warning message; for example, it can
+     be a suggestion for what to use instead of THIS-MACRO-NAME.
+
+     For instance
+
+          AC_OBSOLETE([$0], [; use AC_CHECK_HEADERS(unistd.h) instead])dnl
+
+     You are encouraged to use `AU_DEFUN' instead, since it gives better
+     services to the user (*note AU_DEFUN::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OFF_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_OFF_T' (*note AC_TYPE_OFF_T::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OUTPUT ([FILE]..., [EXTRA-CMDS], [INIT-CMDS])
+     The use of `AC_OUTPUT' with arguments is deprecated.  This
+     obsoleted interface is equivalent to:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_FILES(FILE...)
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([default],
+                             EXTRA-CMDS, INIT-CMDS)
+          AC_OUTPUT
+
+     See *note AC_CONFIG_FILES::, *note AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS::, and *note
+     AC_OUTPUT::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS (EXTRA-CMDS, [INIT-CMDS])
+     Specify additional shell commands to run at the end of
+     `config.status', and shell commands to initialize any variables
+     from `configure'.  This macro may be called multiple times.  It is
+     obsolete, replaced by `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' (*note
+     AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS::).
+
+     Here is an unrealistic example:
+
+          fubar=27
+          AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo this is extra $fubar, and so on.],
+                             [fubar=$fubar])
+          AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo this is another, extra, bit],
+                             [echo init bit])
+
+     Aside from the fact that `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' requires an
+     additional key, an important difference is that
+     `AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS' is quoting its arguments twice, unlike
+     `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS'.  This means that `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' can
+     safely be given macro calls as arguments:
+
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS(foo, [my_FOO()])
+
+     Conversely, where one level of quoting was enough for literal
+     strings with `AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS', you need two with
+     `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS'.  The following lines are equivalent:
+
+          AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo "Square brackets: []"])
+          AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([default], [[echo "Square brackets: []"]])
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PID_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_PID_T' (*note AC_TYPE_PID_T::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PREFIX
+     Replaced by `AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM' (*note AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_PROGS' (*note AC_CHECK_PROGS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROGRAMS_PATH
+     Replaced by `AC_PATH_PROGS' (*note AC_PATH_PROGS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROGRAM_CHECK
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_PROG' (*note AC_CHECK_PROG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROGRAM_EGREP
+     Replaced by `AC_EGREP_CPP' (*note AC_EGREP_CPP::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_PROGRAM_PATH
+     Replaced by `AC_PATH_PROG' (*note AC_PATH_PROG::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_REMOTE_TAPE
+     Removed because of limited usefulness.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS
+     This macro was renamed `AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS'.  However,
+     these days portable programs should use `sigaction' with
+     `SA_RESTART' if they want restartable system calls.  They should
+     not rely on `HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS', since nowadays whether a
+     system call is restartable is a dynamic issue, not a
+     configuration-time issue.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_RETSIGTYPE
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_SIGNAL' (*note AC_TYPE_SIGNAL::), which itself
+     is obsolete when assuming C89 or better.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_RSH
+     Removed because of limited usefulness.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SCO_INTL
+     If on SCO Unix, add `-lintl' to output variable `LIBS'.  This
+     macro used to do this:
+
+          AC_CHECK_LIB([intl], [strftime], [LIBS="-lintl $LIBS"])
+
+     Now it just calls `AC_FUNC_STRFTIME' instead (*note
+     AC_FUNC_STRFTIME::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SETVBUF_REVERSED
+     Replaced by
+          AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED
+     *Note AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SET_MAKE
+     Replaced by `AC_PROG_MAKE_SET' (*note AC_PROG_MAKE_SET::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SIZEOF_TYPE
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_SIZEOF' (*note AC_CHECK_SIZEOF::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SIZE_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_SIZE_T' (*note AC_TYPE_SIZE_T::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STAT_MACROS_BROKEN
+     Replaced by `AC_HEADER_STAT' (*note AC_HEADER_STAT::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STDC_HEADERS
+     Replaced by `AC_HEADER_STDC' (*note AC_HEADER_STDC::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRCOLL
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_STRCOLL' (*note AC_FUNC_STRCOLL::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE
+     If `struct stat' contains an `st_blksize' member, define
+     `HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE'.  The former name, `HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE'
+     is to be avoided, as its support will cease in the future.  This
+     macro is obsoleted, and should be replaced by
+
+          AC_CHECK_MEMBERS([struct stat.st_blksize])
+     *Note AC_CHECK_MEMBERS::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_STRUCT_ST_RDEV
+     If `struct stat' contains an `st_rdev' member, define
+     `HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_RDEV'.  The former name for this macro,
+     `HAVE_ST_RDEV', is to be avoided as it will cease to be supported
+     in the future.  Actually, even the new macro is obsolete and
+     should be replaced by:
+          AC_CHECK_MEMBERS([struct stat.st_rdev])
+     *Note AC_CHECK_MEMBERS::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ST_BLKSIZE
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_MEMBERS' (*note AC_CHECK_MEMBERS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ST_BLOCKS
+     Replaced by `AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS' (*note AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_ST_RDEV
+     Replaced by `AC_CHECK_MEMBERS' (*note AC_CHECK_MEMBERS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS
+     If the system automatically restarts a system call that is
+     interrupted by a signal, define `HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS'.  This
+     macro does not check whether system calls are restarted in
+     general--it checks whether a signal handler installed with
+     `signal' (but not `sigaction') causes system calls to be
+     restarted.  It does not check whether system calls can be
+     restarted when interrupted by signals that have no handler.
+
+     These days portable programs should use `sigaction' with
+     `SA_RESTART' if they want restartable system calls.  They should
+     not rely on `HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS', since nowadays whether a
+     system call is restartable is a dynamic issue, not a
+     configuration-time issue.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_SYS_SIGLIST_DECLARED
+     This macro was renamed `AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST'.  However, even that
+     name is obsolete, as the same functionality is now achieved via
+     `AC_CHECK_DECLS' (*note AC_CHECK_DECLS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TEST_CPP
+     This macro was renamed `AC_TRY_CPP', which in turn was replaced by
+     `AC_PREPROC_IFELSE' (*note AC_PREPROC_IFELSE::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TEST_PROGRAM
+     This macro was renamed `AC_TRY_RUN', which in turn was replaced by
+     `AC_RUN_IFELSE' (*note AC_RUN_IFELSE::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TIMEZONE
+     Replaced by `AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE' (*note AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME
+     Replaced by `AC_HEADER_TIME' (*note AC_HEADER_TIME::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TRY_COMPILE (INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY, [ACTION-IF-TRUE],
+          [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+     Same as:
+
+          AC_COMPILE_IFELSE(

+               [[FUNCTION-BODY]])],
+            [ACTION-IF-TRUE],
+            [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+
+     *Note Running the Compiler::.
+
+     This macro double quotes both INCLUDES and FUNCTION-BODY.
+
+     For C and C++, INCLUDES is any `#include' statements needed by the
+     code in FUNCTION-BODY (INCLUDES is ignored if the currently
+     selected language is Fortran or Fortran 77).  The compiler and
+     compilation flags are determined by the current language (*note
+     Language Choice::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TRY_CPP (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE])

+            [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
+
+     *Note Running the Preprocessor::.
+

+
+ -- Macro: AC_TRY_LINK (INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY, [ACTION-IF-TRUE],

+     Same as:
+

+     *Note Running the Compiler::.
+
+     This macro double quotes both INCLUDES and FUNCTION-BODY.
+
+     Depending on the current language (*note Language Choice::),
+     create a test program to see whether a function whose body
+     consists of FUNCTION-BODY can be compiled and linked.  If the file
+     compiles and links successfully, run shell commands
+     ACTION-IF-FOUND, otherwise run ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND.
+
+     This macro double quotes both INCLUDES and FUNCTION-BODY.
+
+     For C and C++, INCLUDES is any `#include' statements needed by the
+     code in FUNCTION-BODY (INCLUDES is ignored if the currently
+     selected language is Fortran or Fortran 77).  The compiler and
+     compilation flags are determined by the current language (*note
+     Language Choice::), and in addition `LDFLAGS' and `LIBS' are used
+     for linking.

+ -- Macro: AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC (FUNCTION, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],

+     This macro is equivalent to

+            [AC_LANG_SOURCE([[PROGRAM]])],
+            [ACTION-IF-TRUE],

+            [ACTION-IF-CROSS-COMPILING])
+
+     *Note Runtime::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_TYPE_SIGNAL
+     If `signal.h' declares `signal' as returning a pointer to a
+     function returning `void', define `RETSIGTYPE' to be `void';
+     otherwise, define it to be `int'.  These days, it is portable to
+     assume C89, and that signal handlers return `void', without
+     needing to use this macro or `RETSIGTYPE'.
+
+     When targeting older K&R C, it is possible to define signal
+     handlers as returning type `RETSIGTYPE', and omit a return
+     statement:
+
+          RETSIGTYPE
+          hup_handler ()
+          {
+          ...
+          }
+
+ -- Macro: AC_UID_T
+     Replaced by `AC_TYPE_UID_T' (*note AC_TYPE_UID_T::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_UNISTD_H
+     Same as `AC_CHECK_HEADERS([unistd.h])' (*note AC_CHECK_HEADERS::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_USG
+     Define `USG' if the BSD string functions are defined in
+     `strings.h'.  You should no longer depend upon `USG', but on
+     `HAVE_STRING_H'; see *note Standard Symbols::.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_UTIME_NULL
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL' (*note AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_VALIDATE_CACHED_SYSTEM_TUPLE ([CMD])
+     If the cache file is inconsistent with the current host, target and
+     build system types, it used to execute CMD or print a default
+     error message.  This is now handled by default.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_VERBOSE (RESULT-DESCRIPTION)
+     Replaced by `AC_MSG_RESULT' (*note AC_MSG_RESULT::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_VFORK
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_FORK' (*note AC_FUNC_FORK::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_VPRINTF
+     Replaced by `AC_FUNC_VPRINTF' (*note AC_FUNC_VPRINTF::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_WAIT3
+     This macro was renamed `AC_FUNC_WAIT3'.  However, these days
+     portable programs should use `waitpid', not `wait3', as `wait3'
+     has been removed from Posix.
+
+ -- Macro: AC_WARN
+     Replaced by `AC_MSG_WARN' (*note AC_MSG_WARN::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_WITH (PACKAGE, ACTION-IF-GIVEN, [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     This is an obsolete version of `AC_ARG_WITH' that does not support
+     providing a help string (*note AC_ARG_WITH::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_WORDS_BIGENDIAN
+     Replaced by `AC_C_BIGENDIAN' (*note AC_C_BIGENDIAN::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_XENIX_DIR
+     This macro used to add `-lx' to output variable `LIBS' if on
+     Xenix.  Also, if `dirent.h' is being checked for, added `-ldir' to
+     `LIBS'.  Now it is merely an alias of `AC_HEADER_DIRENT' instead,
+     plus some code to detect whether running XENIX on which you should
+     not depend:
+
+          AC_MSG_CHECKING([for Xenix])
+          AC_EGREP_CPP([yes],
+          [#if defined M_XENIX && !defined M_UNIX

+          #endif],
+                       [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes]); XENIX=yes],
+                       [AC_MSG_RESULT([no]); XENIX=])
+     Don't use this macro, the dignified means to check the nature of
+     the host is using `AC_CANONICAL_HOST' (*note Canonicalizing::).
+
+ -- Macro: AC_YYTEXT_POINTER
+     This macro was renamed `AC_DECL_YYTEXT', which in turn was
+     integrated into `AC_PROG_LEX' (*note AC_PROG_LEX::).

+18.5 Upgrading From Version 1
+=============================
+
+Autoconf version 2 is mostly backward compatible with version 1.
+However, it introduces better ways to do some things, and doesn't
+support some of the ugly things in version 1.  So, depending on how
+sophisticated your `configure.ac' files are, you might have to do some
+manual work in order to upgrade to version 2.  This chapter points out
+some problems to watch for when upgrading.  Also, perhaps your
+`configure' scripts could benefit from some of the new features in
+version 2; the changes are summarized in the file `NEWS' in the
+Autoconf distribution.
+
+* Menu:

+* Changed File Names::          Files you might rename

+
+18.5.1 Changed File Names
+-------------------------
+
+If you have an `aclocal.m4' installed with Autoconf (as opposed to in a
+particular package's source directory), you must rename it to
+`acsite.m4'.  *Note autoconf Invocation::.
+
+   If you distribute `install.sh' with your package, rename it to
+`install-sh' so `make' builtin rules don't inadvertently create a file
+called `install' from it.  `AC_PROG_INSTALL' looks for the script under
+both names, but it is best to use the new name.
+
+   If you were using `config.h.top', `config.h.bot', or `acconfig.h',
+you still can, but you have less clutter if you use the `AH_' macros.
+*Note Autoheader Macros::.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Changed Makefiles,  Next: Changed Macros,  Prev: Changed File Names,  Up: Autoconf 1
+
+18.5.2 Changed Makefiles
+------------------------
+
+Add `@CFLAGS@', `@CPPFLAGS@', and `@LDFLAGS@' in your `Makefile.in'
+files, so they can take advantage of the values of those variables in
+the environment when `configure' is run.  Doing this isn't necessary,
+but it's a convenience for users.
+
+   Also add `@configure_input@' in a comment to each input file for
+`AC_OUTPUT', so that the output files contain a comment saying they
+were produced by `configure'.  Automatically selecting the right
+comment syntax for all the kinds of files that people call `AC_OUTPUT'
+on became too much work.
+
+   Add `config.log' and `config.cache' to the list of files you remove
+in `distclean' targets.
+
+   If you have the following in `Makefile.in':
+
+     prefix = /usr/local
+     exec_prefix = $(prefix)
+
+you must change it to:
+
+     prefix = @prefix@
+     exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@
+
+The old behavior of replacing those variables without `@' characters
+around them has been removed.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Changed Macros,  Next: Changed Results,  Prev: Changed Makefiles,  Up: Autoconf 1
+
+18.5.3 Changed Macros
+---------------------
+
+Many of the macros were renamed in Autoconf version 2.  You can still
+use the old names, but the new ones are clearer, and it's easier to find
+the documentation for them.  *Note Obsolete Macros::, for a table
+showing the new names for the old macros.  Use the `autoupdate' program
+to convert your `configure.ac' to using the new macro names.  *Note
+autoupdate Invocation::.
+
+   Some macros have been superseded by similar ones that do the job
+better, but are not call-compatible.  If you get warnings about calling
+obsolete macros while running `autoconf', you may safely ignore them,
+but your `configure' script generally works better if you follow the
+advice that is printed about what to replace the obsolete macros with.
+In particular, the mechanism for reporting the results of tests has
+changed.  If you were using `echo' or `AC_VERBOSE' (perhaps via
+`AC_COMPILE_CHECK'), your `configure' script's output looks better if
+you switch to `AC_MSG_CHECKING' and `AC_MSG_RESULT'.  *Note Printing
+Messages::.  Those macros work best in conjunction with cache
+variables.  *Note Caching Results::.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Changed Results,  Next: Changed Macro Writing,  Prev: Changed Macros,  Up: Autoconf 1
+
+18.5.4 Changed Results
+----------------------
+
+If you were checking the results of previous tests by examining the
+shell variable `DEFS', you need to switch to checking the values of the
+cache variables for those tests.  `DEFS' no longer exists while
+`configure' is running; it is only created when generating output
+files.  This difference from version 1 is because properly quoting the
+contents of that variable turned out to be too cumbersome and
+inefficient to do every time `AC_DEFINE' is called.  *Note Cache
+Variable Names::.
+
+   For example, here is a `configure.ac' fragment written for Autoconf
+version 1:
+
+     AC_HAVE_FUNCS(syslog)
+     case "$DEFS" in
+     *-DHAVE_SYSLOG*) ;;
+     *) # syslog is not in the default libraries.  See if it's in some other.
+       saved_LIBS="$LIBS"
+       for lib in bsd socket inet; do
+         AC_CHECKING(for syslog in -l$lib)
+         LIBS="-l$lib $saved_LIBS"
+         AC_HAVE_FUNCS(syslog)
+         case "$DEFS" in
+         *-DHAVE_SYSLOG*) break ;;
+         *) ;;
+         esac
+         LIBS="$saved_LIBS"
+       done ;;
+     esac
+
+   Here is a way to write it for version 2:
+
+     AC_CHECK_FUNCS([syslog])
+     if test "x$ac_cv_func_syslog" = xno; then
+       # syslog is not in the default libraries.  See if it's in some other.
+       for lib in bsd socket inet; do
+         AC_CHECK_LIB([$lib], [syslog], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_SYSLOG])
+           LIBS="-l$lib $LIBS"; break])
+       done
+     fi
+
+   If you were working around bugs in `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' by adding
+backslashes before quotes, you need to remove them.  It now works
+predictably, and does not treat quotes (except back quotes) specially.
+*Note Setting Output Variables::.
+
+   All of the Boolean shell variables set by Autoconf macros now use
+`yes' for the true value.  Most of them use `no' for false, though for
+backward compatibility some use the empty string instead.  If you were
+relying on a shell variable being set to something like 1 or `t' for
+true, you need to change your tests.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Changed Macro Writing,  Prev: Changed Results,  Up: Autoconf 1
+
+18.5.5 Changed Macro Writing
+----------------------------
+
+When defining your own macros, you should now use `AC_DEFUN' instead of
+`define'.  `AC_DEFUN' automatically calls `AC_PROVIDE' and ensures that
+macros called via `AC_REQUIRE' do not interrupt other macros, to
+prevent nested `checking...' messages on the screen.  There's no actual
+harm in continuing to use the older way, but it's less convenient and
+attractive.  *Note Macro Definitions::.
+
+   You probably looked at the macros that came with Autoconf as a guide
+for how to do things.  It would be a good idea to take a look at the new
+versions of them, as the style is somewhat improved and they take
+advantage of some new features.
+
+   If you were doing tricky things with undocumented Autoconf internals
+(macros, variables, diversions), check whether you need to change
+anything to account for changes that have been made.  Perhaps you can
+even use an officially supported technique in version 2 instead of
+kludging.  Or perhaps not.
+
+   To speed up your locally written feature tests, add caching to them.
+See whether any of your tests are of general enough usefulness to
+encapsulate them into macros that you can share.

+18.6 Upgrading From Version 2.13
+================================
+
+The introduction of the previous section (*note Autoconf 1::) perfectly
+suits this section...
+
+     Autoconf version 2.50 is mostly backward compatible with version
+     2.13.  However, it introduces better ways to do some things, and
+     doesn't support some of the ugly things in version 2.13.  So,
+     depending on how sophisticated your `configure.ac' files are, you
+     might have to do some manual work in order to upgrade to version
+     2.50.  This chapter points out some problems to watch for when
+     upgrading.  Also, perhaps your `configure' scripts could benefit
+     from some of the new features in version 2.50; the changes are
+     summarized in the file `NEWS' in the Autoconf distribution.

+

+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Changed Quotation,  Next: New Macros,  Up: Autoconf 2.13
+
+18.6.1 Changed Quotation
+------------------------
+
+The most important changes are invisible to you: the implementation of
+most macros have completely changed.  This allowed more factorization of
+the code, better error messages, a higher uniformity of the user's
+interface etc.  Unfortunately, as a side effect, some construct which
+used to (miraculously) work might break starting with Autoconf 2.50.
+The most common culprit is bad quotation.
+
+   For instance, in the following example, the message is not properly
+quoted:
+
+     AC_INIT
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS(foo.h, ,
+       AC_MSG_ERROR(cannot find foo.h, bailing out))
+     AC_OUTPUT
+
+Autoconf 2.13 simply ignores it:
+
+     $ autoconf-2.13; ./configure --silent
+     creating cache ./config.cache
+     configure: error: cannot find foo.h
+     $
+
+while Autoconf 2.50 produces a broken `configure':
+
+     $ autoconf-2.50; ./configure --silent
+     configure: error: cannot find foo.h
+     ./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `bailing'
+     ./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `bailing'
+     $
+
+   The message needs to be quoted, and the `AC_MSG_ERROR' invocation
+too!
+
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([foo.h], [],
+       [AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot find foo.h, bailing out])])
+     AC_OUTPUT
+
+   Many many (and many more) Autoconf macros were lacking proper
+quotation, including no less than... `AC_DEFUN' itself!
+
+     $ cat configure.in
+     AC_DEFUN([AC_PROG_INSTALL],

+
+18.6.2 New Macros
+-----------------
+
+While Autoconf was relatively dormant in the late 1990s, Automake
+provided Autoconf-like macros for a while.  Starting with Autoconf 2.50
+in 2001, Autoconf provided versions of these macros, integrated in the
+`AC_' namespace, instead of `AM_'.  But in order to ease the upgrading
+via `autoupdate', bindings to such `AM_' macros are provided.
+
+   Unfortunately older versions of Automake (e.g., Automake 1.4) did
+not quote the names of these macros.  Therefore, when `m4' finds
+something like `AC_DEFUN(AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T, ...)' in `aclocal.m4',
+`AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T' is expanded, replaced with its Autoconf definition.
+
+   Fortunately Autoconf catches pre-`AC_INIT' expansions, and
+complains, in its own words:
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T
+     $ aclocal-1.4
+     $ autoconf
+     aclocal.m4:17: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion
+     aclocal.m4:17: the top level
+     autom4te: m4 failed with exit status: 1
+     $
+
+   Modern versions of Automake no longer define most of these macros,
+and properly quote the names of the remaining macros.  If you must use
+an old Automake, do not depend upon macros from Automake as it is
+simply not its job to provide macros (but the one it requires itself):
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T
+     $ rm aclocal.m4
+     $ autoupdate
+     autoupdate: `configure.ac' is updated
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AC_CHECK_TYPES([ptrdiff_t])
+     $ aclocal-1.4
+     $ autoconf
+     $
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Hosts and Cross-Compilation,  Next: AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS,  Prev: New Macros,  Up: Autoconf 2.13
+
+18.6.3 Hosts and Cross-Compilation
+----------------------------------
+
+Based on the experience of compiler writers, and after long public
+debates, many aspects of the cross-compilation chain have changed:
+
+   - the relationship between the build, host, and target architecture
+     types,
+
+   - the command line interface for specifying them to `configure',
+
+   - the variables defined in `configure',
+
+   - the enabling of cross-compilation mode.
+
+
+   The relationship between build, host, and target have been cleaned
+up: the chain of default is now simply: target defaults to host, host to
+build, and build to the result of `config.guess'.  Nevertheless, in
+order to ease the transition from 2.13 to 2.50, the following
+transition scheme is implemented.  _Do not rely on it_, as it will be
+completely disabled in a couple of releases (we cannot keep it, as it
+proves to cause more problems than it cures).
+
+   They all default to the result of running `config.guess', unless you
+specify either `--build' or `--host'.  In this case, the default
+becomes the system type you specified.  If you specify both, and
+they're different, `configure' enters cross compilation mode, so it
+doesn't run any tests that require execution.
+
+   Hint: if you mean to override the result of `config.guess', prefer
+`--build' over `--host'.
+
+
+   For backward compatibility, `configure' accepts a system type as an
+option by itself.  Such an option overrides the defaults for build,
+host, and target system types.  The following configure statement
+configures a cross toolchain that runs on NetBSD/alpha but generates
+code for GNU Hurd/sparc, which is also the build platform.
+
+     ./configure --host=alpha-netbsd sparc-gnu
+
+
+   In Autoconf 2.13 and before, the variables `build', `host', and
+`target' had a different semantics before and after the invocation of
+`AC_CANONICAL_BUILD' etc.  Now, the argument of `--build' is strictly
+copied into `build_alias', and is left empty otherwise.  After the
+`AC_CANONICAL_BUILD', `build' is set to the canonicalized build type.
+To ease the transition, before, its contents is the same as that of
+`build_alias'.  Do _not_ rely on this broken feature.
+
+   For consistency with the backward compatibility scheme exposed above,
+when `--host' is specified but `--build' isn't, the build system is
+assumed to be the same as `--host', and `build_alias' is set to that
+value.  Eventually, this historically incorrect behavior will go away.
+
+
+   The former scheme to enable cross-compilation proved to cause more
+harm than good, in particular, it used to be triggered too easily,
+leaving regular end users puzzled in front of cryptic error messages.
+`configure' could even enter cross-compilation mode only because the
+compiler was not functional.  This is mainly because `configure' used
+to try to detect cross-compilation, instead of waiting for an explicit
+flag from the user.
+
+   Now, `configure' enters cross-compilation mode if and only if
+`--host' is passed.
+
+   That's the short documentation.  To ease the transition between 2.13
+and its successors, a more complicated scheme is implemented.  _Do not
+rely on the following_, as it will be removed in the near future.
+
+   If you specify `--host', but not `--build', when `configure'
+performs the first compiler test it tries to run an executable produced
+by the compiler.  If the execution fails, it enters cross-compilation
+mode.  This is fragile.  Moreover, by the time the compiler test is
+performed, it may be too late to modify the build-system type: other
+tests may have already been performed.  Therefore, whenever you specify
+`--host', be sure to specify `--build' too.
+
+     ./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=m68k-coff
+
+enters cross-compilation mode.  The former interface, which consisted
+in setting the compiler to a cross-compiler without informing
+`configure' is obsolete.  For instance, `configure' fails if it can't
+run the code generated by the specified compiler if you configure as
+follows:
+
+     ./configure CC=m68k-coff-gcc

+
+18.6.4 `AC_LIBOBJ' vs. `LIBOBJS'
+--------------------------------
+
+Up to Autoconf 2.13, the replacement of functions was triggered via the
+variable `LIBOBJS'.  Since Autoconf 2.50, the macro `AC_LIBOBJ' should
+be used instead (*note Generic Functions::).  Starting at Autoconf
+2.53, the use of `LIBOBJS' is an error.
+
+   This change is mandated by the unification of the GNU Build System
+components.  In particular, the various fragile techniques used to parse
+a `configure.ac' are all replaced with the use of traces.  As a
+consequence, any action must be traceable, which obsoletes critical
+variable assignments.  Fortunately, `LIBOBJS' was the only problem, and
+it can even be handled gracefully (read, "without your having to change
+something").
+
+   There were two typical uses of `LIBOBJS': asking for a replacement
+function, and adjusting `LIBOBJS' for Automake and/or Libtool.
+
+
+   As for function replacement, the fix is immediate: use `AC_LIBOBJ'.
+For instance:
+
+     LIBOBJS="$LIBOBJS fnmatch.o"
+     LIBOBJS="$LIBOBJS malloc.$ac_objext"
+
+should be replaced with:
+
+     AC_LIBOBJ([fnmatch])
+     AC_LIBOBJ([malloc])
+
+
+   When used with Automake 1.10 or newer, a suitable value for
+`LIBOBJDIR' is set so that the `LIBOBJS' and `LTLIBOBJS' can be
+referenced from any `Makefile.am'.  Even without Automake, arranging
+for `LIBOBJDIR' to be set correctly enables referencing `LIBOBJS' and
+`LTLIBOBJS' in another directory.  The `LIBOBJDIR' feature is
+experimental.

+
+18.6.5 `AC_ACT_IFELSE' vs. `AC_TRY_ACT'
+---------------------------------------
+
+Since Autoconf 2.50, internal codes uses `AC_PREPROC_IFELSE',
+`AC_COMPILE_IFELSE', `AC_LINK_IFELSE', and `AC_RUN_IFELSE' on one hand
+and `AC_LANG_SOURCE', and `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' on the other hand instead
+of the deprecated `AC_TRY_CPP', `AC_TRY_COMPILE', `AC_TRY_LINK', and
+`AC_TRY_RUN'.  The motivations where:
+   - a more consistent interface: `AC_TRY_COMPILE' etc. were double
+     quoting their arguments;
+
+   - the combinatoric explosion is solved by decomposing on the one
+     hand the generation of sources, and on the other hand executing
+     the program;
+
+   - this scheme helps supporting more languages than plain C and C++.
+
+   In addition to the change of syntax, the philosophy has changed too:
+while emphasis was put on speed at the expense of accuracy, today's
+Autoconf promotes accuracy of the testing framework at, ahem..., the
+expense of speed.
+
+   As a perfect example of what is _not_ to be done, here is how to
+find out whether a header file contains a particular declaration, such
+as a typedef, a structure, a structure member, or a function.  Use
+`AC_EGREP_HEADER' instead of running `grep' directly on the header
+file; on some systems the symbol might be defined in another header
+file that the file you are checking includes.
+
+   As a (bad) example, here is how you should not check for C
+preprocessor symbols, either defined by header files or predefined by
+the C preprocessor: using `AC_EGREP_CPP':
+
+     AC_EGREP_CPP(yes,
+     [#ifdef _AIX
+       yes
+     #endif
+     ], is_aix=yes, is_aix=no)
+
+   The above example, properly written would (i) use `AC_LANG_PROGRAM',
+and (ii) run the compiler:
+
+     AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
+     [[#ifndef _AIX
+      error: This isn't AIX!
+     #endif
+     ]])],
+                        [is_aix=yes],
+                        [is_aix=no])

+19 Generating Test Suites with Autotest
+***************************************
+
+     *N.B.: This section describes a feature which is still
+     stabilizing.  Although we believe that Autotest is useful as-is, this
+     documentation describes an interface which might change in the future:
+     do not depend upon Autotest without subscribing to the Autoconf mailing
+     lists.*
+
+   It is paradoxical that portable projects depend on nonportable tools
+to run their test suite.  Autoconf by itself is the paragon of this
+problem: although it aims at perfectly portability, up to 2.13 its test
+suite was using DejaGNU, a rich and complex testing framework, but
+which is far from being standard on Posix systems.  Worse yet, it was
+likely to be missing on the most fragile platforms, the very platforms
+that are most likely to torture Autoconf and exhibit deficiencies.
+
+   To circumvent this problem, many package maintainers have developed
+their own testing framework, based on simple shell scripts whose sole
+outputs are exit status values describing whether the test succeeded.
+Most of these tests share common patterns, and this can result in lots
+of duplicated code and tedious maintenance.
+
+   Following exactly the same reasoning that yielded to the inception of
+Autoconf, Autotest provides a test suite generation framework, based on
+M4 macros building a portable shell script.  The suite itself is
+equipped with automatic logging and tracing facilities which greatly
+diminish the interaction with bug reporters, and simple timing reports.
+
+   Autoconf itself has been using Autotest for years, and we do attest
+that it has considerably improved the strength of the test suite and the
+quality of bug reports.  Other projects are known to use some generation
+of Autotest, such as Bison, Free Recode, Free Wdiff, GNU Tar, each of
+them with different needs, and this usage has validated Autotest as a
+general testing framework.
+
+   Nonetheless, compared to DejaGNU, Autotest is inadequate for
+interactive tool testing, which is probably its main limitation.

+
+19.1.1 `testsuite' Scripts
+--------------------------
+
+Generating testing or validation suites using Autotest is rather easy.
+The whole validation suite is held in a file to be processed through
+`autom4te', itself using GNU M4 under the hood, to produce a
+stand-alone Bourne shell script which then gets distributed.  Neither
+`autom4te' nor GNU M4 are needed at the installer's end.
+
+   Each test of the validation suite should be part of some test group.
+A "test group" is a sequence of interwoven tests that ought to be
+executed together, usually because one test in the group creates data
+files that a later test in the same group needs to read.  Complex test
+groups make later debugging more tedious.  It is much better to keep
+only a few tests per test group.  Ideally there is only one test per
+test group.
+
+   For all but the simplest packages, some file such as `testsuite.at'
+does not fully hold all test sources, as these are often easier to
+maintain in separate files.  Each of these separate files holds a single
+test group, or a sequence of test groups all addressing some common
+functionality in the package.  In such cases, `testsuite.at' merely
+initializes the validation suite, and sometimes does elementary health
+checking, before listing include statements for all other test files.
+The special file `package.m4', containing the identification of the
+package, is automatically included if found.
+
+   A convenient alternative consists in moving all the global issues
+(local Autotest macros, elementary health checking, and `AT_INIT'
+invocation) into the file `local.at', and making `testsuite.at' be a
+simple list of `m4_include's of sub test suites.  In such case,
+generating the whole test suite or pieces of it is only a matter of
+choosing the `autom4te' command line arguments.
+
+   The validation scripts that Autotest produces are by convention
+called `testsuite'.  When run, `testsuite' executes each test group in
+turn, producing only one summary line per test to say if that
+particular test succeeded or failed.  At end of all tests, summarizing
+counters get printed.  One debugging directory is left for each test
+group which failed, if any: such directories are named
+`testsuite.dir/NN', where NN is the sequence number of the test group,
+and they include:
+
+   * a debugging script named `run' which reruns the test in "debug
+     mode" (*note testsuite Invocation::).  The automatic generation of
+     debugging scripts has the purpose of easing the chase for bugs.
+
+   * all the files created with `AT_DATA'
+
+   * all the Erlang source code files created with `AT_CHECK_EUNIT'
+
+   * a log of the run, named `testsuite.log'
+
+   In the ideal situation, none of the tests fail, and consequently no
+debugging directory is left behind for validation.
+
+   It often happens in practice that individual tests in the validation
+suite need to get information coming out of the configuration process.
+Some of this information, common for all validation suites, is provided
+through the file `atconfig', automatically created by
+`AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR'.  For configuration information which your testing
+environment specifically needs, you might prepare an optional file
+named `atlocal.in', instantiated by `AC_CONFIG_FILES'.  The
+configuration process produces `atconfig' and `atlocal' out of these
+two input files, and these two produced files are automatically read by
+the `testsuite' script.
+
+   Here is a diagram showing the relationship between files.

+
+19.1.2 Autotest Logs
+--------------------
+
+When run, the test suite creates a log file named after itself, e.g., a
+test suite named `testsuite' creates `testsuite.log'.  It contains a
+lot of information, usually more than maintainers actually need, but
+therefore most of the time it contains all that is needed:
+
+command line arguments
+     A bad but unfortunately widespread habit consists of setting
+     environment variables before the command, such as in
+     `CC=my-home-grown-cc ./testsuite'.  The test suite does not know
+     this change, hence (i) it cannot report it to you, and (ii) it
+     cannot preserve the value of `CC' for subsequent runs.  Autoconf
+     faced exactly the same problem, and solved it by asking users to
+     pass the variable definitions as command line arguments.  Autotest
+     requires this rule, too, but has no means to enforce it; the log
+     then contains a trace of the variables that were changed by the
+     user.
+
+`ChangeLog' excerpts
+     The topmost lines of all the `ChangeLog' files found in the source
+     hierarchy.  This is especially useful when bugs are reported
+     against development versions of the package, since the version
+     string does not provide sufficient information to know the exact
+     state of the sources the user compiled.  Of course, this relies on
+     the use of a `ChangeLog'.
+
+build machine
+     Running a test suite in a cross-compile environment is not an easy
+     task, since it would mean having the test suite run on a machine
+     BUILD, while running programs on a machine HOST.  It is much
+     simpler to run both the test suite and the programs on HOST, but
+     then, from the point of view of the test suite, there remains a
+     single environment, HOST = BUILD.  The log contains relevant
+     information on the state of the BUILD machine, including some
+     important environment variables.
+
+tested programs
+     The absolute file name and answers to `--version' of the tested
+     programs (see *note Writing Testsuites::, `AT_TESTED').
+
+configuration log
+     The contents of `config.log', as created by `configure', are
+     appended.  It contains the configuration flags and a detailed
+     report on the configuration itself.

+
+19.2 Writing `testsuite.at'
+===========================
+
+The `testsuite.at' is a Bourne shell script making use of special
+Autotest M4 macros.  It often contains a call to `AT_INIT' near its
+beginning followed by one call to `m4_include' per source file for
+tests.  Each such included file, or the remainder of `testsuite.at' if
+include files are not used, contain a sequence of test groups.  Each
+test group begins with a call to `AT_SETUP', then an arbitrary number
+of shell commands or calls to `AT_CHECK', and then completes with a
+call to `AT_CLEANUP'.  Multiple test groups can be categorized by a
+call to `AT_BANNER'.
+
+   All of the public Autotest macros have all-uppercase names in the
+namespace `^AT_' to prevent them from accidentally conflicting with
+other text; Autoconf also reserves the namespace `^_AT_' for internal
+macros.  All shell variables used in the testsuite for internal
+purposes have mostly-lowercase names starting with `at_'.  Autotest
+also uses here-document delimiters in the namespace `^_AT[A-Z]', and
+makes use of the file system namespace `^at-'.
+
+   Since Autoconf is built on top of M4sugar (*note Programming in
+M4sugar::) and M4sh (*note Programming in M4sh::), you must also be
+aware of those namespaces (`^_?\(m4\|AS\)_').  In general, you _should
+not use_ the namespace of a package that does not own the macro or
+shell code you are writing.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_INIT ([NAME])
+     Initialize Autotest.  Giving a NAME to the test suite is
+     encouraged if your package includes several test suites.  Before
+     this macro is called, `AT_PACKAGE_STRING' and
+     `AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT' must be defined, which are used to display
+     information about the testsuite to the user.  Typically, these
+     macros are provided by a file `package.m4' built by `make' (*note
+     Making testsuite Scripts::), in order to inherit the package name,
+     version, and bug reporting address from `configure.ac'.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_COPYRIGHT (COPYRIGHT-NOTICE)
+     State that, in addition to the Free Software Foundation's
+     copyright on the Autotest macros, parts of your test suite are
+     covered by COPYRIGHT-NOTICE.
+
+     The COPYRIGHT-NOTICE shows up in both the head of `testsuite' and
+     in `testsuite --version'.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_ARG_OPTION (OPTIONS, HELP-TEXT, [ACTION-IF-GIVEN],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     Accept options from the space-separated list OPTIONS, a list that
+     has leading dashes removed from the options.  Long options will be
+     prefixed with `--', single-character options with `-'.  The first
+     word in this list is the primary OPTION, any others are assumed to
+     be short-hand aliases.  The variable associated with it is
+     `at_arg_OPTION', with any dashes in OPTION replaced with
+     underscores.
+
+     If the user passes `--OPTION' to the `testsuite', the variable
+     will be set to `:'.  If the user does not pass the option, or
+     passes `--no-OPTION', then the variable will be set to `false'.
+
+     ACTION-IF-GIVEN is run each time the option is encountered; here,
+     the variable `at_optarg' will be set to `:' or `false' as
+     appropriate.  `at_optarg' is actually just a copy of
+     `at_arg_OPTION'.
+
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN will be run once after option parsing is
+     complete and if no option from OPTIONS was used.
+
+     HELP-TEXT is added to the end of the list of options shown in
+     `testsuite --help' (*note AS_HELP_STRING::).
+
+     It is recommended that you use a package-specific prefix to OPTIONS
+     names in order to avoid clashes with future Autotest built-in
+     options.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_ARG_OPTION_ARG (OPTIONS, HELP-TEXT, [ACTION-IF-GIVEN],
+          [ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN])
+     Accept options with arguments from the space-separated list
+     OPTIONS, a list that has leading dashes removed from the options.
+     Long options will be prefixed with `--', single-character options
+     with `-'.  The first word in this list is the primary OPTION, any
+     others are assumed to be short-hand aliases.  The variable
+     associated with it is `at_arg_OPTION', with any dashes in OPTION
+     replaced with underscores.
+
+     If the user passes `--OPTION=ARG' or `--OPTION ARG' to the
+     `testsuite', the variable will be set to `ARG'.
+
+     ACTION-IF-GIVEN is run each time the option is encountered; here,
+     the variable `at_optarg' will be set to `ARG'.  `at_optarg' is
+     actually just a copy of `at_arg_OPTION'.
+
+     ACTION-IF-NOT-GIVEN will be run once after option parsing is
+     complete and if no option from OPTIONS was used.
+
+     HELP-TEXT is added to the end of the list of options shown in
+     `testsuite --help' (*note AS_HELP_STRING::).
+
+     It is recommended that you use a package-specific prefix to OPTIONS
+     names in order to avoid clashes with future Autotest built-in
+     options.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_COLOR_TESTS
+     Enable colored test results by default when the output is
+     connected to a terminal.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_TESTED (EXECUTABLES)
+     Log the file name and answer to `--version' of each program in
+     space-separated list EXECUTABLES.  Several invocations register
+     new executables, in other words, don't fear registering one program
+     several times.
+
+     Autotest test suites rely on `PATH' to find the tested program.
+     This avoids the need to generate absolute names of the various
+     tools, and makes it possible to test installed programs.
+     Therefore, knowing which programs are being exercised is crucial
+     to understanding problems in the test suite itself, or its
+     occasional misuses.  It is a good idea to also subscribe foreign
+     programs you depend upon, to avoid incompatible diagnostics.
+
+
+ -- Macro: AT_BANNER (TEST-CATEGORY-NAME)
+     This macro identifies the start of a category of related test
+     groups.  When the resulting `testsuite' is invoked with more than
+     one test group to run, its output will include a banner containing
+     TEST-CATEGORY-NAME prior to any tests run from that category.  The
+     banner should be no more than about 40 or 50 characters.  A blank
+     banner indicates uncategorized tests; an empty line will be
+     inserted after tests from an earlier category, effectively ending
+     that category.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_SETUP (TEST-GROUP-NAME)
+     This macro starts a group of related tests, all to be executed in
+     the same subshell.  It accepts a single argument, which holds a
+     few words (no more than about 30 or 40 characters) quickly
+     describing the purpose of the test group being started.
+     TEST-GROUP-NAME must not expand to unbalanced quotes, although
+     quadrigraphs can be used.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_KEYWORDS (KEYWORDS)
+     Associate the space-separated list of KEYWORDS to the enclosing
+     test group.  This makes it possible to run "slices" of the test
+     suite.  For instance, if some of your test groups exercise some
+     `foo' feature, then using `AT_KEYWORDS(foo)' lets you run
+     `./testsuite -k foo' to run exclusively these test groups.  The
+     TEST-GROUP-NAME of the test group is automatically recorded to
+     `AT_KEYWORDS'.
+
+     Several invocations within a test group accumulate new keywords.
+     In other words, don't fear registering the same keyword several
+     times in a test group.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_CAPTURE_FILE (FILE)
+     If the current test group fails, log the contents of FILE.
+     Several identical calls within one test group have no additional
+     effect.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_FAIL_IF (SHELL-CONDITION)
+     Make the test group fail and skip the rest of its execution, if
+     SHELL-CONDITION is true.  SHELL-CONDITION is a shell expression
+     such as a `test' command.  Tests before `AT_FAIL_IF' will be
+     executed and may still cause the test group to be skipped.  You
+     can instantiate this macro many times from within the same test
+     group.
+
+     You should use this macro only for very simple failure conditions.
+     If the SHELL-CONDITION could emit any kind of output you should
+     instead use `AT_CHECK' like
+          AT_CHECK([if SHELL-CONDITION; then exit 99; fi])
+     so that such output is properly recorded in the `testsuite.log'
+     file.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_SKIP_IF (SHELL-CONDITION)
+     Determine whether the test should be skipped because it requires
+     features that are unsupported on the machine under test.
+     SHELL-CONDITION is a shell expression such as a `test' command.
+     Tests before `AT_SKIP_IF' will be executed and may still cause the
+     test group to fail.  You can instantiate this macro many times
+     from within the same test group.
+
+     You should use this macro only for very simple skip conditions.
+     If the SHELL-CONDITION could emit any kind of output you should
+     instead use `AT_CHECK' like
+          AT_CHECK([if SHELL-CONDITION; then exit 77; fi])
+     so that such output is properly recorded in the `testsuite.log'
+     file.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_XFAIL_IF (SHELL-CONDITION)
+     Determine whether the test is expected to fail because it is a
+     known bug (for unsupported features, you should skip the test).
+     SHELL-CONDITION is a shell expression such as a `test' command;
+     you can instantiate this macro many times from within the same
+     test group, and one of the conditions is enough to turn the test
+     into an expected failure.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_CLEANUP
+     End the current test group.
+
+
+ -- Macro: AT_DATA (FILE, CONTENTS)
+     Initialize an input data FILE with given CONTENTS.  Of course, the
+     CONTENTS have to be properly quoted between square brackets to
+     protect against included commas or spurious M4 expansion.
+     CONTENTS must be empty or end with a newline.  FILE must be a
+     single shell word that expands into a single file name.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_CHECK (COMMANDS, [STATUS = `0'], [STDOUT], [STDERR],
+          [RUN-IF-FAIL], [RUN-IF-PASS])
+ -- Macro: AT_CHECK_UNQUOTED (COMMANDS, [STATUS = `0'], [STDOUT],
+          [STDERR], [RUN-IF-FAIL], [RUN-IF-PASS])
+     Execute a test by performing given shell COMMANDS in a subshell.
+     COMMANDS is output as-is, so shell expansions are honored.  These
+     commands should normally exit with STATUS, while producing expected
+     STDOUT and STDERR contents.  If COMMANDS exit with unexpected
+     status 77, then the rest of the test group is skipped.  If
+     COMMANDS exit with unexpected status 99, then the test group is
+     immediately failed.  Otherwise, if this test fails, run shell
+     commands RUN-IF-FAIL or, if this test passes, run shell commands
+     RUN-IF-PASS, both inside the current shell execution environment.
+     At the beginning of RUN-IF-FAIL and RUN-IF-PASS, the status of
+     COMMANDS is available in the `at_status' shell variable.
+
+     This macro must be invoked in between `AT_SETUP' and `AT_CLEANUP'.
+
+     If STATUS is the literal `ignore', then the corresponding exit
+     status is not checked, except for the special cases of 77 (skip)
+     and 99 (hard failure).  The existence of hard failures allows one
+     to mark a test as an expected failure with `AT_XFAIL_IF' because a
+     feature has not yet been implemented, but to still distinguish
+     between gracefully handling the missing feature and dumping core.
+     A hard failure also inhibits post-test actions in RUN-IF-FAIL.
+
+     If the value of the STDOUT or STDERR parameter is one of the
+     literals in the following table, then the test treats the output
+     according to the rules of that literal.  Otherwise, the value of
+     the parameter is treated as text that must exactly match the
+     output given by COMMANDS on standard output and standard error
+     (including an empty parameter for no output); any differences are
+     captured in the testsuite log and the test is failed (unless an
+     unexpected exit status of 77 skipped the test instead).  The
+     difference between `AT_CHECK' and `AT_CHECK_UNQUOTED' is that only
+     the latter performs shell variable expansion (`$'), command
+     substitution (``'), and backslash escaping (`\') on comparison
+     text given in the STDOUT and STDERR arguments; if the text
+     includes a trailing newline, this would be the same as if it were
+     specified via an unquoted here-document.  (However, there is no
+     difference in the interpretation of COMMANDS).
+
+    `ignore'
+          The content of the output is ignored, but still captured in
+          the test group log (if the testsuite is run with option `-v',
+          the test group log is displayed as the test is run; if the
+          test group later fails, the test group log is also copied
+          into the overall testsuite log).  This action is valid for
+          both STDOUT and STDERR.
+
+    `ignore-nolog'
+          The content of the output is ignored, and nothing is captured
+          in the log files.  If COMMANDS are likely to produce binary
+          output (including long lines) or large amounts of output,
+          then logging the output can make it harder to locate details
+          related to subsequent tests within the group, and could
+          potentially corrupt terminal display of a user running
+          `testsuite -v'.
+
+    `stdout'
+          For the STDOUT parameter, capture the content of standard
+          output to both the file `stdout' and the test group log.
+          Subsequent commands in the test group can then post-process
+          the file.  This action is often used when it is desired to
+          use `grep' to look for a substring in the output, or when the
+          output must be post-processed to normalize error messages
+          into a common form.
+
+    `stderr'
+          Like `stdout', except that it only works for the STDERR
+          parameter, and the standard error capture file will be named
+          `stderr'.
+
+    `stdout-nolog'
+    `stderr-nolog'
+          Like `stdout' or `stderr', except that the captured output is
+          not duplicated into the test group log.  This action is
+          particularly useful for an intermediate check that produces
+          large amounts of data, which will be followed by another
+          check that filters down to the relevant data, as it makes it
+          easier to locate details in the log.
+
+    `expout'
+          For the STDOUT parameter, compare standard output contents
+          with the previously created file `expout', and list any
+          differences in the testsuite log.
+
+    `experr'
+          Like `expout', except that it only works for the STDERR
+          parameter, and the standard error contents are compared with
+          `experr'.
+
+ -- Macro: AT_CHECK_EUNIT (MODULE, TEST-SPEC, [ERLFLAGS],
+          [RUN-IF-FAIL], [RUN-IF-PASS])
+     Initialize and execute an Erlang module named MODULE that performs
+     tests following the TEST-SPEC EUnit test specification.  TEST-SPEC
+     must be a valid EUnit test specification, as defined in the EUnit
+     Reference Manual (http://erlang.org/doc/apps/eunit/index.html).
+     ERLFLAGS are optional command-line options passed to the Erlang
+     interpreter to execute the test Erlang module.  Typically,
+     ERLFLAGS defines at least the paths to directories containing the
+     compiled Erlang modules under test, as `-pa path1 path2 ...'.
+
+     For example, the unit tests associated with Erlang module `testme',
+     which compiled code is in subdirectory `src', can be performed
+     with:
+
+          AT_CHECK_EUNIT([testme_testsuite], [{module, testme}],
+                         [-pa "${abs_top_builddir}/src"])
+
+     This macro must be invoked in between `AT_SETUP' and `AT_CLEANUP'.
+
+     Variables `ERL', `ERLC', and (optionally) `ERLCFLAGS' must be
+     defined as the path of the Erlang interpreter, the path of the
+     Erlang compiler, and the command-line flags to pass to the
+     compiler, respectively.  Those variables should be configured in
+     `configure.ac' using the `AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL' and
+     `AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC' macros, and the configured values of those
+     variables are automatically defined in the testsuite.  If `ERL' or
+     `ERLC' is not defined, the test group is skipped.
+
+     If the EUnit library cannot be found, i.e. if module `eunit' cannot
+     be loaded, the test group is skipped.  Otherwise, if TEST-SPEC is
+     an invalid EUnit test specification, the test group fails.
+     Otherwise, if the EUnit test passes, shell commands RUN-IF-PASS
+     are executed or, if the EUnit test fails, shell commands
+     RUN-IF-FAIL are executed and the test group fails.
+
+     Only the generated test Erlang module is automatically compiled and
+     executed.  If TEST-SPEC involves testing other Erlang modules,
+     e.g. module `testme' in the example above, those modules must be
+     already compiled.
+
+     If the testsuite is run in verbose mode, with option `--verbose',
+     EUnit is also run in verbose mode to output more details about
+     individual unit tests.

+
+19.3 Running `testsuite' Scripts
+================================
+
+Autotest test suites support the following options:
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+     Display the list of options and exit successfully.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+     Display the version of the test suite and exit successfully.
+
+`--directory=DIR'
+`-C DIR'
+     Change the current directory to DIR before creating any files.
+     Useful for running the testsuite in a subdirectory from a top-level
+     Makefile.
+
+`--jobs[=N]'
+`-j[N]'
+     Run N tests in parallel, if possible.  If N is not given, run all
+     given tests in parallel.  Note that there should be no space
+     before the argument to `-j', as `-j NUMBER' denotes the separate
+     arguments `-j' and `NUMBER', see below.
+
+     In parallel mode, the standard input device of the testsuite
+     script is not available to commands inside a test group.
+     Furthermore, banner lines are not printed, and the summary line
+     for each test group is output after the test group completes.
+     Summary lines may appear unordered.  If verbose and trace output
+     are enabled (see below), they may appear intermixed from
+     concurrently running tests.
+
+     Parallel mode requires the `mkfifo' command to work, and will be
+     silently disabled otherwise.
+
+`--clean'
+`-c'
+     Remove all the files the test suite might have created and exit.
+     Meant for `clean' Make targets.
+
+`--list'
+`-l'
+     List all the tests (or only the selection), including their
+     possible keywords.
+
+
+   By default all tests are performed (or described with `--list')
+silently in the default environment, but the environment, set of tests,
+and verbosity level can be tuned:
+
+`VARIABLE=VALUE'
+     Set the environment VARIABLE to VALUE.  Use this rather than
+     `FOO=foo ./testsuite' as debugging scripts would then run in a
+     different environment.
+
+     The variable `AUTOTEST_PATH' specifies the testing path to prepend
+     to `PATH'.  Relative directory names (not starting with `/') are
+     considered to be relative to the top level of the package being
+     built.  All directories are made absolute, first starting from the
+     top level _build_ tree, then from the _source_ tree.  For instance
+     `./testsuite AUTOTEST_PATH=tests:bin' for a `/src/foo-1.0' source
+     package built in `/tmp/foo' results in
+     `/tmp/foo/tests:/tmp/foo/bin' and then
+     `/src/foo-1.0/tests:/src/foo-1.0/bin' being prepended to `PATH'.
+
+`NUMBER'
+`NUMBER-NUMBER'
+`NUMBER-'
+`-NUMBER'
+     Add the corresponding test groups, with obvious semantics, to the
+     selection.
+
+`--keywords=KEYWORDS'
+`-k KEYWORDS'
+     Add to the selection the test groups with title or keywords
+     (arguments to `AT_SETUP' or `AT_KEYWORDS') that match _all_
+     keywords of the comma separated list KEYWORDS, case-insensitively.
+     Use `!' immediately before the keyword to invert the selection for
+     this keyword.  By default, the keywords match whole words; enclose
+     them in `.*' to also match parts of words.
+
+     For example, running
+
+          ./testsuite -k 'autoupdate,.*FUNC.*'
+
+     selects all tests tagged `autoupdate' _and_ with tags containing
+     `FUNC' (as in `AC_CHECK_FUNC', `AC_FUNC_ALLOCA', etc.), while
+
+          ./testsuite -k '!autoupdate' -k '.*FUNC.*'
+
+     selects all tests not tagged `autoupdate' _or_ with tags
+     containing `FUNC'.
+
+`--errexit'
+`-e'
+     If any test fails, immediately abort testing.  This implies
+     `--debug': post test group clean up, and top-level logging are
+     inhibited.  This option is meant for the full test suite, it is
+     not really useful for generated debugging scripts.  If the
+     testsuite is run in parallel mode using `--jobs', then
+     concurrently running tests will finish before exiting.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+     Force more verbosity in the detailed output of what is being done.
+     This is the default for debugging scripts.
+
+`--color'
+`--color[=never|auto|always]'
+     Enable colored test results.  Without an argument, or with
+     `always', test results will be colored.  With `never', color mode
+     is turned off.  Otherwise, if either the macro `AT_COLOR_TESTS' is
+     used by the testsuite author, or the argument `auto' is given,
+     then test results are colored if standard output is connected to a
+     terminal.
+
+`--debug'
+`-d'
+     Do not remove the files after a test group was performed--but they
+     are still removed _before_, therefore using this option is sane
+     when running several test groups.  Create debugging scripts.  Do
+     not overwrite the top-level log (in order to preserve a supposedly
+     existing full log file).  This is the default for debugging
+     scripts, but it can also be useful to debug the testsuite itself.
+
+`--recheck'
+     Add to the selection all test groups that failed or passed
+     unexpectedly during the last non-debugging test run.
+
+`--trace'
+`-x'
+     Trigger shell tracing of the test groups.
+
+   Besides these options accepted by every Autotest testsuite, the
+testsuite author might have added package-specific options via the
+`AT_ARG_OPTION' and `AT_ARG_OPTION_ARG' macros (*note Writing
+Testsuites::); refer to `testsuite --help' and the package
+documentation for details.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Making testsuite Scripts,  Prev: testsuite Invocation,  Up: Using Autotest
+
+19.4 Making `testsuite' Scripts
+===============================
+
+For putting Autotest into movement, you need some configuration and
+makefile machinery.  We recommend, at least if your package uses deep or
+shallow hierarchies, that you use `tests/' as the name of the directory
+holding all your tests and their makefile.  Here is a check list of
+things to do.
+
+   - Make sure to create the file `package.m4', which defines the
+     identity of the package.  It must define `AT_PACKAGE_STRING', the
+     full signature of the package, and `AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT', the
+     address to which bug reports should be sent.  For sake of
+     completeness, we suggest that you also define `AT_PACKAGE_NAME',
+     `AT_PACKAGE_TARNAME', `AT_PACKAGE_VERSION', and `AT_PACKAGE_URL'.
+     *Note Initializing configure::, for a description of these
+     variables.  Be sure to distribute `package.m4' and to put it into
+     the source hierarchy: the test suite ought to be shipped!  See
+     below for an example `Makefile' excerpt.
+
+   - Invoke `AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR'.
+
+      -- Macro: AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR (DIRECTORY, [TEST-PATH = `directory'])
+          An Autotest test suite is to be configured in DIRECTORY.  This
+          macro causes `DIRECTORY/atconfig' to be created by
+          `config.status' and sets the default `AUTOTEST_PATH' to
+          TEST-PATH (*note testsuite Invocation::).
+
+   - Still within `configure.ac', as appropriate, ensure that some
+     `AC_CONFIG_FILES' command includes substitution for
+     `tests/atlocal'.
+
+   - The appropriate `Makefile' should be modified so the validation in
+     your package is triggered by `make check'.  An example is provided
+     below.
+
+   With Automake, here is a minimal example for inclusion in
+`tests/Makefile.am', in order to link `make check' with a validation
+suite.
+
+     # The `:;' works around a Bash 3.2 bug when the output is not writable.
+     $(srcdir)/package.m4: $(top_srcdir)/configure.ac
+             :;{ \
+               echo '# Signature of the current package.' && \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_NAME],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_NAME)])' && \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_TARNAME],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_TARNAME)])' && \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_VERSION],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_VERSION)])' && \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_STRING],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_STRING)])' && \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_BUGREPORT)])'; \
+               echo 'm4_define([AT_PACKAGE_URL],' && \
+               echo '  [$(PACKAGE_URL)])'; \
+             } >'$(srcdir)/package.m4'
+
+     EXTRA_DIST = testsuite.at $(srcdir)/package.m4 $(TESTSUITE) atlocal.in
+     TESTSUITE = $(srcdir)/testsuite
+
+     check-local: atconfig atlocal $(TESTSUITE)
+             $(SHELL) '$(TESTSUITE)' $(TESTSUITEFLAGS)
+
+     installcheck-local: atconfig atlocal $(TESTSUITE)
+             $(SHELL) '$(TESTSUITE)' AUTOTEST_PATH='$(bindir)' \
+               $(TESTSUITEFLAGS)
+
+     clean-local:
+             test ! -f '$(TESTSUITE)' || \
+              $(SHELL) '$(TESTSUITE)' --clean
+
+     AUTOM4TE = $(SHELL) $(srcdir)/build-aux/missing --run autom4te
+     AUTOTEST = $(AUTOM4TE) --language=autotest
+     $(TESTSUITE): $(srcdir)/testsuite.at $(srcdir)/package.m4
+             $(AUTOTEST) -I '$(srcdir)' -o $@.tmp $@.at
+             mv $@.tmp $@
+
+   Note that the built testsuite is distributed; this is necessary
+because users might not have Autoconf installed, and thus would not be
+able to rebuild it.  Likewise, the use of `missing' provides the user
+with a nicer error message if they modify a source file to the
+testsuite, and accidentally trigger the rebuild rules.
+
+   You might want to list explicitly the dependencies, i.e., the list of
+the files `testsuite.at' includes.
+
+   If you don't use Automake, you should include the above example in
+`tests/Makefile.in', along with additional lines inspired from the
+following:
+
+     subdir = tests
+     PACKAGE_NAME = @PACKAGE_NAME@
+     PACKAGE_TARNAME = @PACKAGE_TARNAME@
+     PACKAGE_VERSION = @PACKAGE_VERSION@
+     PACKAGE_STRING = @PACKAGE_STRING@
+     PACKAGE_BUGREPORT = @PACKAGE_BUGREPORT@
+     PACKAGE_URL = @PACKAGE_URL@
+
+     atconfig: $(top_builddir)/config.status
+             cd $(top_builddir) && \
+                $(SHELL) ./config.status $(subdir)/$@
+
+     atlocal: $(srcdir)/atlocal.in $(top_builddir)/config.status
+             cd $(top_builddir) && \
+                $(SHELL) ./config.status $(subdir)/$@
+
+and manage to have `$(EXTRA_DIST)' distributed.  You will also want to
+distribute the file `build-aux/missing' from the Automake project; a
+copy of this file resides in the Autoconf source tree.
+
+   With all this in place, and if you have not initialized
+`TESTSUITEFLAGS' within your makefile, you can fine-tune test suite
+execution with this variable, for example:
+
+     make check TESTSUITEFLAGS='-v -d -x 75 -k AC_PROG_CC CFLAGS=-g'

+
+20.1 Distributing `configure' Scripts
+=====================================
+
+     What are the restrictions on distributing `configure'
+     scripts that Autoconf generates?  How does that affect my
+     programs that use them?
+
+   There are no restrictions on how the configuration scripts that
+Autoconf produces may be distributed or used.  In Autoconf version 1,
+they were covered by the GNU General Public License.  We still encourage
+software authors to distribute their work under terms like those of the
+GPL, but doing so is not required to use Autoconf.
+
+   Of the other files that might be used with `configure',
+`config.h.in' is under whatever copyright you use for your
+`configure.ac'.  `config.sub' and `config.guess' have an exception to
+the GPL when they are used with an Autoconf-generated `configure'
+script, which permits you to distribute them under the same terms as
+the rest of your package.  `install-sh' is from the X Consortium and is
+not copyrighted.

+

+
+20.2 Why Require GNU M4?
+========================
+
+     Why does Autoconf require GNU M4?
+
+   Many M4 implementations have hard-coded limitations on the size and
+number of macros that Autoconf exceeds.  They also lack several builtin
+macros that it would be difficult to get along without in a
+sophisticated application like Autoconf, including:
+
+     m4_builtin
+     m4_indir
+     m4_bpatsubst
+     __file__
+     __line__
+
+   Autoconf requires version 1.4.6 or later of GNU M4.
+
+   Since only software maintainers need to use Autoconf, and since GNU
+M4 is simple to configure and install, it seems reasonable to require
+GNU M4 to be installed also.  Many maintainers of GNU and other free
+software already have most of the GNU utilities installed, since they
+prefer them.

+
+20.3 How Can I Bootstrap?
+=========================
+
+     If Autoconf requires GNU M4 and GNU M4 has an Autoconf
+     `configure' script, how do I bootstrap?  It seems like a chicken
+     and egg problem!
+
+   This is a misunderstanding.  Although GNU M4 does come with a
+`configure' script produced by Autoconf, Autoconf is not required in
+order to run the script and install GNU M4.  Autoconf is only required
+if you want to change the M4 `configure' script, which few people have
+to do (mainly its maintainer).
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Why Not Imake,  Next: Defining Directories,  Prev: Bootstrapping,  Up: FAQ
+
+20.4 Why Not Imake?
+===================
+
+     Why not use Imake instead of `configure' scripts?
+
+   Several people have written addressing this question, so adaptations
+of their explanations are included here.
+
+   The following answer is based on one written by Richard Pixley:
+
+     Autoconf generated scripts frequently work on machines that it has
+     never been set up to handle before.  That is, it does a good job of
+     inferring a configuration for a new system.  Imake cannot do this.
+
+     Imake uses a common database of host specific data.  For X11, this
+     makes sense because the distribution is made as a collection of
+     tools, by one central authority who has control over the database.
+
+     GNU tools are not released this way.  Each GNU tool has a
+     maintainer; these maintainers are scattered across the world.
+     Using a common database would be a maintenance nightmare.
+     Autoconf may appear to be this kind of database, but in fact it is
+     not.  Instead of listing host dependencies, it lists program
+     requirements.
+
+     If you view the GNU suite as a collection of native tools, then the
+     problems are similar.  But the GNU development tools can be
+     configured as cross tools in almost any host+target permutation.
+     All of these configurations can be installed concurrently.  They
+     can even be configured to share host independent files across
+     hosts.  Imake doesn't address these issues.
+
+     Imake templates are a form of standardization.  The GNU coding
+     standards address the same issues without necessarily imposing the
+     same restrictions.
+
+   Here is some further explanation, written by Per Bothner:
+
+     One of the advantages of Imake is that it is easy to generate large
+     makefiles using the `#include' and macro mechanisms of `cpp'.
+     However, `cpp' is not programmable: it has limited conditional
+     facilities, and no looping.  And `cpp' cannot inspect its
+     environment.
+
+     All of these problems are solved by using `sh' instead of `cpp'.
+     The shell is fully programmable, has macro substitution, can
+     execute (or source) other shell scripts, and can inspect its
+     environment.
+
+   Paul Eggert elaborates more:
+
+     With Autoconf, installers need not assume that Imake itself is
+     already installed and working well.  This may not seem like much
+     of an advantage to people who are accustomed to Imake.  But on
+     many hosts Imake is not installed or the default installation is
+     not working well, and requiring Imake to install a package hinders
+     the acceptance of that package on those hosts.  For example, the
+     Imake template and configuration files might not be installed
+     properly on a host, or the Imake build procedure might wrongly
+     assume that all source files are in one big directory tree, or the
+     Imake configuration might assume one compiler whereas the package
+     or the installer needs to use another, or there might be a version
+     mismatch between the Imake expected by the package and the Imake
+     supported by the host.  These problems are much rarer with
+     Autoconf, where each package comes with its own independent
+     configuration processor.
+
+     Also, Imake often suffers from unexpected interactions between
+     `make' and the installer's C preprocessor.  The fundamental problem
+     here is that the C preprocessor was designed to preprocess C
+     programs, not makefiles.  This is much less of a problem with
+     Autoconf, which uses the general-purpose preprocessor M4, and
+     where the package's author (rather than the installer) does the
+     preprocessing in a standard way.
+
+   Finally, Mark Eichin notes:
+
+     Imake isn't all that extensible, either.  In order to add new
+     features to Imake, you need to provide your own project template,
+     and duplicate most of the features of the existing one.  This
+     means that for a sophisticated project, using the vendor-provided
+     Imake templates fails to provide any leverage--since they don't
+     cover anything that your own project needs (unless it is an X11
+     program).
+
+     On the other side, though:
+
+     The one advantage that Imake has over `configure': `Imakefile'
+     files tend to be much shorter (likewise, less redundant) than
+     `Makefile.in' files.  There is a fix to this, however--at least
+     for the Kerberos V5 tree, we've modified things to call in common
+     `post.in' and `pre.in' makefile fragments for the entire tree.
+     This means that a lot of common things don't have to be
+     duplicated, even though they normally are in `configure' setups.

+
+20.5 How Do I `#define' Installation Directories?
+=================================================
+
+     My program needs library files, installed in `datadir' and
+     similar.  If I use
+          AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([DATADIR], [$datadir],
+            [Define to the read-only architecture-independent
+             data directory.])
+
+     I get
+          #define DATADIR "${prefix}/share"
+
+As already explained, this behavior is on purpose, mandated by the GNU
+Coding Standards, see *note Installation Directory Variables::.  There
+are several means to achieve a similar goal:
+
+   - Do not use `AC_DEFINE' but use your makefile to pass the actual
+     value of `datadir' via compilation flags.  *Note Installation
+     Directory Variables::, for the details.
+
+   - This solution can be simplified when compiling a program: you may
+     either extend the `CPPFLAGS':
+
+          CPPFLAGS = -DDATADIR='"$(datadir)"' @CPPFLAGS@
+
+     If you are using Automake, you should use `AM_CPPFLAGS' instead:
+
+          AM_CPPFLAGS = -DDATADIR='"$(datadir)"'
+
+     Alternatively, create a dedicated header file:
+
+          DISTCLEANFILES = myprog-paths.h
+          myprog-paths.h: Makefile
+                  echo '#define DATADIR "$(datadir)"' >$@
+
+     The gnulib module `configmake' provides such a header with all the
+     standard directory variables defined, *note configmake:
+     (gnulib)configmake.
+
+   - Use `AC_DEFINE' but have `configure' compute the literal value of
+     `datadir' and others.  Many people have wrapped macros to automate
+     this task; for an example, see the macro `AC_DEFINE_DIR' from the
+     Autoconf Macro Archive
+     (http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/).
+
+     This solution does not conform to the GNU Coding Standards.
+
+   - Note that all the previous solutions hard wire the absolute name of
+     these directories in the executables, which is not a good
+     property.  You may try to compute the names relative to `prefix',
+     and try to find `prefix' at runtime, this way your package is
+     relocatable.

+
+20.6 What is `autom4te.cache'?
+==============================
+
+     What is this directory `autom4te.cache'?  Can I safely remove it?
+
+   In the GNU Build System, `configure.ac' plays a central role and is
+read by many tools: `autoconf' to create `configure', `autoheader' to
+create `config.h.in', `automake' to create `Makefile.in', `autoscan' to
+check the completeness of `configure.ac', `autoreconf' to check the GNU
+Build System components that are used.  To "read `configure.ac'"
+actually means to compile it with M4, which can be a long process for
+complex `configure.ac'.
+
+   This is why all these tools, instead of running directly M4, invoke
+`autom4te' (*note autom4te Invocation::) which, while answering to a
+specific demand, stores additional information in `autom4te.cache' for
+future runs.  For instance, if you run `autoconf', behind the scenes,
+`autom4te' also stores information for the other tools, so that when
+you invoke `autoheader' or `automake' etc., reprocessing `configure.ac'
+is not needed.  The speed up is frequently 30%, and is increasing with
+the size of `configure.ac'.
+
+   But it is and remains being simply a cache: you can safely remove it.
+
+
+     Can I permanently get rid of it?
+
+   The creation of this cache can be disabled from `~/.autom4te.cfg',
+see *note Customizing autom4te::, for more details.  You should be
+aware that disabling the cache slows down the Autoconf test suite by
+40%.  The more GNU Build System components are used, the more the cache
+is useful; for instance running `autoreconf -f' on the Core Utilities
+is twice slower without the cache _although `--force' implies that the
+cache is not fully exploited_, and eight times slower than without
+`--force'.

+
+20.7 Header Present But Cannot Be Compiled
+==========================================
+
+The most important guideline to bear in mind when checking for features
+is to mimic as much as possible the intended use.  Unfortunately, old
+versions of `AC_CHECK_HEADER' and `AC_CHECK_HEADERS' failed to follow
+this idea, and called the preprocessor, instead of the compiler, to
+check for headers.  As a result, incompatibilities between headers went
+unnoticed during configuration, and maintainers finally had to deal
+with this issue elsewhere.
+
+   The transition began with Autoconf 2.56.  As of Autoconf 2.64 both
+checks are performed, and `configure' complains loudly if the compiler
+and the preprocessor do not agree.  However, only the compiler result
+is considered.
+
+   Consider the following example:
+
+     $ cat number.h
+     typedef int number;
+     $ cat pi.h
+     const number pi = 3;
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([pi.h])
+     $ autoconf -Wall
+     $ ./configure
+     checking for gcc... gcc
+     checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
+     checking whether the C compiler works... yes
+     checking whether we are cross compiling... no
+     checking for suffix of executables...
+     checking for suffix of object files... o
+     checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
+     checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
+     checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed
+     checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
+     checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... grep
+     checking for egrep... grep -E
+     checking for ANSI C header files... yes
+     checking for sys/types.h... yes
+     checking for sys/stat.h... yes
+     checking for stdlib.h... yes
+     checking for string.h... yes
+     checking for memory.h... yes
+     checking for strings.h... yes
+     checking for inttypes.h... yes
+     checking for stdint.h... yes
+     checking for unistd.h... yes
+     checking pi.h usability... no
+     checking pi.h presence... yes
+     configure: WARNING: pi.h: present but cannot be compiled
+     configure: WARNING: pi.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
+     configure: WARNING: pi.h: see the Autoconf documentation
+     configure: WARNING: pi.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
+     configure: WARNING: pi.h: proceeding with the compiler's result
+     configure: WARNING:     ## -------------------------------------- ##
+     configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to bug-example@example.org ##
+     configure: WARNING:     ## -------------------------------------- ##
+     checking for pi.h... yes
+
+The proper way the handle this case is using the fourth argument (*note
+Generic Headers::):
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@example.org])
+     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([number.h pi.h], [], [],
+     [[#ifdef HAVE_NUMBER_H
+     # include <number.h>
+     #endif
+     ]])
+     $ autoconf -Wall
+     $ ./configure
+     checking for gcc... gcc
+     checking for C compiler default output... a.out
+     checking whether the C compiler works... yes
+     checking whether we are cross compiling... no
+     checking for suffix of executables...
+     checking for suffix of object files... o
+     checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
+     checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
+     checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
+     checking for number.h... yes
+     checking for pi.h... yes
+
+   See *note Particular Headers::, for a list of headers with their
+prerequisites.

+
+20.8 Expanded Before Required
+=============================
+
+Older versions of Autoconf silently built files with incorrect ordering
+between dependent macros if an outer macro first expanded, then later
+indirectly required, an inner macro.  Starting with Autoconf 2.64, this
+situation no longer generates out-of-order code, but results in
+duplicate output and a syntax warning:
+
+     $ cat configure.ac
+     =>AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [[echo in A
+     =>if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+     =>SEEN_A=:]])
+     =>AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA])[echo in B
+     =>if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+     =>AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+     =>AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+     =>TESTA
+     =>TESTC])
+     =>AC_INIT
+     =>OUTER
+     =>AC_OUTPUT
+     $ autoconf
+     =>configure.ac:11: warning: AC_REQUIRE:
+     => `TESTA' was expanded before it was required
+     =>configure.ac:4: TESTB is expanded from...
+     =>configure.ac:6: TESTC is expanded from...
+     =>configure.ac:7: OUTER is expanded from...
+     =>configure.ac:11: the top level
+
+To avoid this warning, decide what purpose the macro in question serves.
+If it only needs to be expanded once (for example, if it provides
+initialization text used by later macros), then the simplest fix is to
+change the macro to be declared with `AC_DEFUN_ONCE' (*note One-Shot
+Macros::), although this only works in Autoconf 2.64 and newer.  A more
+portable fix is to change all instances of direct calls to instead go
+through `AC_REQUIRE' (*note Prerequisite Macros::).  If, instead, the
+macro is parameterized by arguments or by the current definition of
+other macros in the m4 environment, then the macro should always be
+directly expanded instead of required.
+
+   For another case study, consider this example trimmed down from an
+actual package.  Originally, the package contained shell code and
+multiple macro invocations at the top level of `configure.ac':
+
+     AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([...])])
+     foobar=
+     AC_PROG_CC
+     FOO
+
+but that was getting complex, so the author wanted to offload some of
+the text into a new macro in another file included via `aclocal.m4'.
+The nai"ve approach merely wraps the text in a new macro:
+
+     AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([...])])
+     AC_DEFUN([BAR], [
+     foobar=
+     AC_PROG_CC
+     FOO
+     ])
+     BAR
+
+With older versions of Autoconf, the setting of `foobar=' occurs before
+the single compiler check, as the author intended.  But with Autoconf
+2.64, this issues the "expanded before it was required" warning for
+`AC_PROG_CC', and outputs two copies of the compiler check, one before
+`foobar=', and one after.  To understand why this is happening,
+remember that the use of `AC_COMPILE_IFELSE' includes a call to
+`AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])' under the hood.  According to the documented
+semantics of `AC_REQUIRE', this means that `AC_PROG_CC' _must_ occur
+before the body of the outermost `AC_DEFUN', which in this case is
+`BAR', thus preceding the use of `foobar='.  The older versions of
+Autoconf were broken with regards to the rules of `AC_REQUIRE', which
+explains why the code changed from one over to two copies of
+`AC_PROG_CC' when upgrading autoconf.  In other words, the author was
+unknowingly relying on a bug exploit to get the desired results, and
+that exploit broke once the bug was fixed.
+
+   So, what recourse does the author have, to restore their intended
+semantics of setting `foobar=' prior to a single compiler check,
+regardless of whether Autoconf 2.63 or 2.64 is used?  One idea is to
+remember that only `AC_DEFUN' is impacted by `AC_REQUIRE'; there is
+always the possibility of using the lower-level `m4_define':
+
+     AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([...])])
+     m4_define([BAR], [
+     foobar=
+     AC_PROG_CC
+     FOO
+     ])
+     BAR
+
+This works great if everything is in the same file.  However, it does
+not help in the case where the author wants to have `aclocal' find the
+definition of `BAR' from its own file, since `aclocal' requires the use
+of `AC_DEFUN'.  In this case, a better fix is to recognize that if
+`BAR' also uses `AC_REQUIRE', then there will no longer be direct
+expansion prior to a subsequent require.  Then, by creating yet another
+helper macro, the author can once again guarantee a single invocation of
+`AC_PROG_CC', which will still occur after `foobar='.  The author can
+also use `AC_BEFORE' to make sure no other macro appearing before `BAR'
+has triggered an unwanted expansion of `AC_PROG_CC'.
+
+     AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([...])])
+     AC_DEFUN([BEFORE_CC], [
+     foobar=
+     ])
+     AC_DEFUN([BAR], [
+     AC_BEFORE([$0], [AC_PROG_CC])dnl
+     AC_REQUIRE([BEFORE_CC])dnl
+     AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])dnl
+     FOO
+     ])
+     BAR

+
+20.9 Debugging `configure' scripts
+==================================
+
+While in general, `configure' scripts generated by Autoconf strive to
+be fairly portable to various systems, compilers, shells, and other
+tools, it may still be necessary to debug a failing test, broken script
+or makefile, or fix or override an incomplete, faulty, or erroneous
+test, especially during macro development.  Failures can occur at all
+levels, in M4 syntax or semantics, shell script issues, or due to bugs
+in the test or the tools invoked by `configure'.  Together with the
+rather arcane error message that `m4' and `make' may produce when their
+input contains syntax errors, this can make debugging rather painful.
+
+   Nevertheless, here is a list of hints and strategies that may help:
+
+   * When `autoconf' fails, common causes for error include:
+
+        * mismatched or unbalanced parentheses or braces (*note
+          Balancing Parentheses::),
+
+        * under- or overquoted macro arguments (*note Autoconf
+          Language::, *note Quoting and Parameters::, *note Quotation
+          and Nested Macros::),
+
+        * spaces between macro name and opening parenthesis (*note
+          Autoconf Language::).
+
+     Typically, it helps to go back to the last working version of the
+     input and compare the differences for each of these errors.
+     Another possibility is to sprinkle pairs of `m4_traceon' and
+     `m4_traceoff' judiciously in the code, either without a parameter
+     or listing some macro names and watch `m4' expand its input
+     verbosely (*note Debugging via autom4te::).
+
+   * Sometimes `autoconf' succeeds but the generated `configure' script
+     has invalid shell syntax.  You can detect this case by running
+     `bash -n configure' or `sh -n configure'.  If this command fails,
+     the same tips apply, as if `autoconf' had failed.
+
+   * Debugging `configure' script execution may be done by sprinkling
+     pairs of `set -x' and `set +x' into the shell script before and
+     after the region that contains a bug.  Running the whole script
+     with `SHELL -vx ./configure 2>&1 | tee LOG-FILE' with a decent
+     SHELL may work, but produces lots of output.  Here, it can help to
+     search for markers like `checking for' a particular test in the
+     LOG-FILE.
+
+   * Alternatively, you might use a shell with debugging capabilities
+     like bashdb (http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/).
+
+   * When `configure' tests produce invalid results for your system, it
+     may be necessary to override them:
+
+        * For programs, tools or libraries variables, preprocessor,
+          compiler, or linker flags, it is often sufficient to override
+          them at `make' run time with some care (*note Macros and
+          Submakes::).  Since this normally won't cause `configure' to
+          be run again with these changed settings, it may fail if the
+          changed variable would have caused different test results
+          from `configure', so this may work only for simple
+          differences.
+
+        * Most tests which produce their result in a substituted
+          variable allow to override the test by setting the variable
+          on the `configure' command line (*note Compilers and
+          Options::, *note Defining Variables::, *note Particular
+          Systems::).
+
+        * Many tests store their result in a cache variable (*note
+          Caching Results::).  This lets you override them either on the
+          `configure' command line as above, or through a primed cache
+          or site file (*note Cache Files::, *note Site Defaults::).
+          The name of a cache variable is documented with a test macro
+          or may be inferred from *note Cache Variable Names::; the
+          precise semantics of undocumented variables are often
+          internal details, subject to change.
+
+   * Alternatively, `configure' may produce invalid results because of
+     uncaught programming errors, in your package or in an upstream
+     library package.  For example, when `AC_CHECK_LIB' fails to find a
+     library with a specified function, always check `config.log'.  This
+     will reveal the exact error that produced the failing result: the
+     library linked by `AC_CHECK_LIB' probably has a fatal bug.
+
+   Conversely, as macro author, you can make it easier for users of your
+macro:
+
+   * by minimizing dependencies between tests and between test results
+     as far as possible,
+
+   * by using `make' variables to factorize and allow override of
+     settings at `make' run time,
+
+   * by honoring the GNU Coding Standards and not overriding flags
+     reserved for the user except temporarily during `configure' tests,
+
+   * by not requiring users of your macro to use the cache variables.
+     Instead, expose the result of the test via RUN-IF-TRUE and
+     RUN-IF-FALSE parameters.  If the result is not a boolean, then
+     provide it through documented shell variables.

+21.1 Genesis
+============
+
+In June 1991 I was maintaining many of the GNU utilities for the Free
+Software Foundation.  As they were ported to more platforms and more
+programs were added, the number of `-D' options that users had to
+select in the makefile (around 20) became burdensome.  Especially for
+me--I had to test each new release on a bunch of different systems.  So
+I wrote a little shell script to guess some of the correct settings for
+the fileutils package, and released it as part of fileutils 2.0.  That
+`configure' script worked well enough that the next month I adapted it
+(by hand) to create similar `configure' scripts for several other GNU
+utilities packages.  Brian Berliner also adapted one of my scripts for
+his CVS revision control system.
+
+   Later that summer, I learned that Richard Stallman and Richard Pixley
+were developing similar scripts to use in the GNU compiler tools; so I
+adapted my `configure' scripts to support their evolving interface:
+using the file name `Makefile.in' as the templates; adding `+srcdir',
+the first option (of many); and creating `config.status' files.
+
+
+File: autoconf.info,  Node: Exodus,  Next: Leviticus,  Prev: Genesis,  Up: History
+
+21.2 Exodus
+===========
+
+As I got feedback from users, I incorporated many improvements, using
+Emacs to search and replace, cut and paste, similar changes in each of
+the scripts.  As I adapted more GNU utilities packages to use
+`configure' scripts, updating them all by hand became impractical.
+Rich Murphey, the maintainer of the GNU graphics utilities, sent me
+mail saying that the `configure' scripts were great, and asking if I
+had a tool for generating them that I could send him.  No, I thought,
+but I should!  So I started to work out how to generate them.  And the
+journey from the slavery of hand-written `configure' scripts to the
+abundance and ease of Autoconf began.
+
+   Cygnus `configure', which was being developed at around that time,
+is table driven; it is meant to deal mainly with a discrete number of
+system types with a small number of mainly unguessable features (such as
+details of the object file format).  The automatic configuration system
+that Brian Fox had developed for Bash takes a similar approach.  For
+general use, it seems to me a hopeless cause to try to maintain an
+up-to-date database of which features each variant of each operating
+system has.  It's easier and more reliable to check for most features on
+the fly--especially on hybrid systems that people have hacked on
+locally or that have patches from vendors installed.
+
+   I considered using an architecture similar to that of Cygnus
+`configure', where there is a single `configure' script that reads
+pieces of `configure.in' when run.  But I didn't want to have to
+distribute all of the feature tests with every package, so I settled on
+having a different `configure' made from each `configure.in' by a
+preprocessor.  That approach also offered more control and flexibility.
+
+   I looked briefly into using the Metaconfig package, by Larry Wall,
+Harlan Stenn, and Raphael Manfredi, but I decided not to for several
+reasons.  The `Configure' scripts it produces are interactive, which I
+find quite inconvenient; I didn't like the ways it checked for some
+features (such as library functions); I didn't know that it was still
+being maintained, and the `Configure' scripts I had seen didn't work on
+many modern systems (such as System V R4 and NeXT); it wasn't flexible
+in what it could do in response to a feature's presence or absence; I
+found it confusing to learn; and it was too big and complex for my
+needs (I didn't realize then how much Autoconf would eventually have to
+grow).
+
+   I considered using Perl to generate my style of `configure' scripts,
+but decided that M4 was better suited to the job of simple textual
+substitutions: it gets in the way less, because output is implicit.
+Plus, everyone already has it.  (Initially I didn't rely on the GNU
+extensions to M4.)  Also, some of my friends at the University of
+Maryland had recently been putting M4 front ends on several programs,
+including `tvtwm', and I was interested in trying out a new language.

+==============
+
+Since my `configure' scripts determine the system's capabilities
+automatically, with no interactive user intervention, I decided to call
+the program that generates them Autoconfig.  But with a version number
+tacked on, that name would be too long for old Unix file systems, so I
+shortened it to Autoconf.
+
+   In the fall of 1991 I called together a group of fellow questers
+after the Holy Grail of portability (er, that is, alpha testers) to
+give me feedback as I encapsulated pieces of my handwritten scripts in
+M4 macros and continued to add features and improve the techniques used
+in the checks.  Prominent among the testers were Franc,ois Pinard, who
+came up with the idea of making an Autoconf shell script to run M4 and
+check for unresolved macro calls; Richard Pixley, who suggested running
+the compiler instead of searching the file system to find include files
+and symbols, for more accurate results; Karl Berry, who got Autoconf to
+configure TeX and added the macro index to the documentation; and Ian
+Lance Taylor, who added support for creating a C header file as an
+alternative to putting `-D' options in a makefile, so he could use
+Autoconf for his UUCP package.  The alpha testers cheerfully adjusted
+their files again and again as the names and calling conventions of the
+Autoconf macros changed from release to release.  They all contributed
+many specific checks, great ideas, and bug fixes.

+============
+
+In July 1992, after months of alpha testing, I released Autoconf 1.0,
+and converted many GNU packages to use it.  I was surprised by how
+positive the reaction to it was.  More people started using it than I
+could keep track of, including people working on software that wasn't
+part of the GNU Project (such as TCL, FSP, and Kerberos V5).  Autoconf
+continued to improve rapidly, as many people using the `configure'
+scripts reported problems they encountered.
+
+   Autoconf turned out to be a good torture test for M4 implementations.
+Unix M4 started to dump core because of the length of the macros that
+Autoconf defined, and several bugs showed up in GNU M4 as well.
+Eventually, we realized that we needed to use some features that only
+GNU M4 has.  4.3BSD M4, in particular, has an impoverished set of
+builtin macros; the System V version is better, but still doesn't
+provide everything we need.
+
+   More development occurred as people put Autoconf under more stresses
+(and to uses I hadn't anticipated).  Karl Berry added checks for X11.
+david zuhn contributed C++ support.  Franc,ois Pinard made it diagnose
+invalid arguments.  Jim Blandy bravely coerced it into configuring GNU
+Emacs, laying the groundwork for several later improvements.  Roland
+McGrath got it to configure the GNU C Library, wrote the `autoheader'
+script to automate the creation of C header file templates, and added a
+`--verbose' option to `configure'.  Noah Friedman added the
+`--autoconf-dir' option and `AC_MACRODIR' environment variable.  (He
+also coined the term "autoconfiscate" to mean "adapt a software package
+to use Autoconf".)  Roland and Noah improved the quoting protection in
+`AC_DEFINE' and fixed many bugs, especially when I got sick of dealing
+with portability problems from February through June, 1993.

+21.5 Deuteronomy
+================
+
+A long wish list for major features had accumulated, and the effect of
+several years of patching by various people had left some residual
+cruft.  In April 1994, while working for Cygnus Support, I began a major
+revision of Autoconf.  I added most of the features of the Cygnus
+`configure' that Autoconf had lacked, largely by adapting the relevant
+parts of Cygnus `configure' with the help of david zuhn and Ken
+Raeburn.  These features include support for using `config.sub',
+`config.guess', `--host', and `--target'; making links to files; and
+running `configure' scripts in subdirectories.  Adding these features
+enabled Ken to convert GNU `as', and Rob Savoye to convert DejaGNU, to
+using Autoconf.
+
+   I added more features in response to other peoples' requests.  Many
+people had asked for `configure' scripts to share the results of the
+checks between runs, because (particularly when configuring a large
+source tree, like Cygnus does) they were frustratingly slow.  Mike
+Haertel suggested adding site-specific initialization scripts.  People
+distributing software that had to unpack on MS-DOS asked for a way to
+override the `.in' extension on the file names, which produced file
+names like `config.h.in' containing two dots.  Jim Avera did an
+extensive examination of the problems with quoting in `AC_DEFINE' and
+`AC_SUBST'; his insights led to significant improvements.  Richard
+Stallman asked that compiler output be sent to `config.log' instead of
+`/dev/null', to help people debug the Emacs `configure' script.
+
+   I made some other changes because of my dissatisfaction with the
+quality of the program.  I made the messages showing results of the
+checks less ambiguous, always printing a result.  I regularized the
+names of the macros and cleaned up coding style inconsistencies.  I
+added some auxiliary utilities that I had developed to help convert
+source code packages to use Autoconf.  With the help of Franc,ois
+Pinard, I made the macros not interrupt each others' messages.  (That
+feature revealed some performance bottlenecks in GNU M4, which he
+hastily corrected!)  I reorganized the documentation around problems
+people want to solve.  And I began a test suite, because experience had
+shown that Autoconf has a pronounced tendency to regress when we change
+it.
+
+   Again, several alpha testers gave invaluable feedback, especially
+Franc,ois Pinard, Jim Meyering, Karl Berry, Rob Savoye, Ken Raeburn,
+and Mark Eichin.
+
+   Finally, version 2.0 was ready.  And there was much rejoicing.  (And
+I have free time again.  I think.  Yeah, right.)

+
+     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+     of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+  0. PREAMBLE
+
+     The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+     functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
+     assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+     with or without modifying it, either commercially or
+     noncommercially.  Secondarily, this License preserves for the
+     author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
+     being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
+
+     This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
+     works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
+     It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+     license designed for free software.
+
+     We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
+     free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
+     free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
+     that the software does.  But this License is not limited to
+     software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
+     of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
+     We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
+     instruction or reference.
+
+  1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+     This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
+     that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it
+     can be distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice
+     grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
+     to use that work under the conditions stated herein.  The
+     "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work.  Any member
+     of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you".  You
+     accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a
+     way requiring permission under copyright law.
+
+     A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
+     Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+     modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+     A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
+     of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+     publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
+     subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
+     fall directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document
+     is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
+     explain any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of
+     historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
+     of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
+     regarding them.
+
+     The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
+     titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
+     the notice that says that the Document is released under this
+     License.  If a section does not fit the above definition of
+     Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant.
+     The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections.  If the Document
+     does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.
+
+     The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
+     listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
+     that says that the Document is released under this License.  A
+     Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
+     be at most 25 words.
+
+     A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+     represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+     general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+     straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
+     composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
+     widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
+     text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
+     formats suitable for input to text formatters.  A copy made in an
+     otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of
+     markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent
+     modification by readers is not Transparent.  An image format is
+     not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text.  A
+     copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+     Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+     ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
+     SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
+     standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for
+     human modification.  Examples of transparent image formats include
+     PNG, XCF and JPG.  Opaque formats include proprietary formats that
+     can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or
+     XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
+     available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF
+     produced by some word processors for output purposes only.
+
+     The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+     plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
+     material this License requires to appear in the title page.  For
+     works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
+     Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
+     work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+     The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies
+     of the Document to the public.
+
+     A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
+     whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
+     following text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ
+     stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
+     "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
+     To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
+     Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
+     to this definition.
+
+     The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
+     which states that this License applies to the Document.  These
+     Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
+     this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+     implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
+     has no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+  2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+     You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+     commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+     copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
+     applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
+     add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You
+     may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
+     or further copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However,
+     you may accept compensation in exchange for copies.  If you
+     distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
+     the conditions in section 3.
+
+     You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
+     and you may publicly display copies.
+
+  3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+     If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
+     have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
+     the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
+     enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
+     these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
+     Back-Cover Texts on the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly
+     and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies.  The
+     front cover must present the full title with all words of the
+     title equally prominent and visible.  You may add other material
+     on the covers in addition.  Copying with changes limited to the
+     covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
+     satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
+     other respects.
+
+     If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+     legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+     reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
+     adjacent pages.
+
+     If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
+     numbering more than 100, you must either include a
+     machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
+     state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from
+     which the general network-using public has access to download
+     using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent
+     copy of the Document, free of added material.  If you use the
+     latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
+     begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
+     this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+     location until at least one year after the last time you
+     distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
+     retailers) of that edition to the public.
+
+     It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
+     the Document well before redistributing any large number of
+     copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
+     version of the Document.
+
+  4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+     You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
+     under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
+     release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
+     the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
+     licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
+     whoever possesses a copy of it.  In addition, you must do these
+     things in the Modified Version:
+
+       A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
+          distinct from that of the Document, and from those of
+          previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed
+          in the History section of the Document).  You may use the
+          same title as a previous version if the original publisher of
+          that version gives permission.
+
+       B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
+          entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
+          the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
+          principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
+          authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
+          from this requirement.
+
+       C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+          Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+       D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+       E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+          adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+       F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
+          notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
+          Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
+          the Addendum below.
+
+       G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
+          Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
+          license notice.
+
+       H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+       I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
+          and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
+          authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on
+          the Title Page.  If there is no section Entitled "History" in
+          the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors,
+          and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page,
+          then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in
+          the previous sentence.
+
+       J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
+          for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
+          likewise the network locations given in the Document for
+          previous versions it was based on.  These may be placed in
+          the "History" section.  You may omit a network location for a
+          work that was published at least four years before the
+          Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version
+          it refers to gives permission.
+
+       K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
+          Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the
+          section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
+          acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
+
+       L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+          unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
+          or the equivalent are not considered part of the section
+          titles.
+
+       M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements".  Such a section
+          may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+       N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
+          "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
+          Section.
+
+       O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+     If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+     appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
+     material copied from the Document, you may at your option
+     designate some or all of these sections as invariant.  To do this,
+     add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
+     Version's license notice.  These titles must be distinct from any
+     other section titles.
+
+     You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+     nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+     parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
+     has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
+     definition of a standard.
+
+     You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
+     and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
+     of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one
+     passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
+     added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the
+     Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
+     previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
+     you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
+     replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
+     publisher that added the old one.
+
+     The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
+     License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
+     assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+  5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+     You may combine the Document with other documents released under
+     this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
+     modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
+     all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
+     unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
+     combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
+     their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+     The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+     multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+     copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
+     but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
+     by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
+     original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
+     unique number.  Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
+     the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
+     combined work.
+
+     In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
+     "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
+     Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
+     "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications".  You
+     must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
+
+  6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+     You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
+     documents released under this License, and replace the individual
+     copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
+     that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
+     rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
+     documents in all other respects.
+
+     You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
+     distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
+     a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
+     this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
+     that document.
+
+  7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+     A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
+     separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
+     a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
+     copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
+     legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
+     works permit.  When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
+     License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
+     are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
+
+     If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+     copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
+     of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
+     on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+     electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
+     form.  Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
+     the whole aggregate.
+
+  8. TRANSLATION
+
+     Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+     distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
+     4.  Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+     permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+     translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+     original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
+     translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+     Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
+     include the original English version of this License and the
+     original versions of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a
+     disagreement between the translation and the original version of
+     this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
+     prevail.
+
+     If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+     "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
+     Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
+     actual title.
+
+  9. TERMINATION
+
+     You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
+     except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+     otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
+     and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+
+     However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+     license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+     provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly
+     and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
+     copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
+     reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+     Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+     reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+     violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+     received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
+     that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
+     after your receipt of the notice.
+
+     Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
+     the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from
+     you under this License.  If your rights have been terminated and
+     not permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of
+     the same material does not give you any rights to use it.
+
+ 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+     The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
+     the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
+     versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+     differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
+     `http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/'.
+
+     Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
+     number.  If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
+     version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
+     have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
+     that specified version or of any later version that has been
+     published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If
+     the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
+     you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
+     Free Software Foundation.  If the Document specifies that a proxy
+     can decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
+     proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
+     authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
+
+ 11. RELICENSING
+
+     "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
+     World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
+     provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A
+     public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
+     A "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the
+     site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
+     site.
+
+     "CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
+     license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
+     corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
+     California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
+     published by that same organization.
+
+     "Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
+     in part, as part of another Document.
+
+     An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
+     License, and if all works that were first published under this
+     License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
+     incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
+     texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
+     to November 1, 2008.
+
+     The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
+     site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
+     2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
+
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+====================================================
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
+notices just after the title page:
+
+       Copyright (C)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.
+       Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+       under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
+       or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+       with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
+       Texts.  A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+       Free Documentation License''.
+
+   If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
+Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
+
+         with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
+         the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
+         being LIST.
+
+   If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+situation.
+
+   If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
+permit their use in free software.

+@c @ovar(ARG)
+@c ----------
+@c The ARG is an optional argument.  To be used for macro arguments in
+@c their documentation (@defmac).
+@macro ovar{varname}

+@end macro
+
+@c @dvar(ARG, DEFAULT)
+@c -------------------
+@c The ARG is an optional argument, defaulting to DEFAULT.  To be used
+@c for macro arguments in their documentation (@defmac).
+@macro dvar{varname, default}
+@r{[}@var{\varname\} = @samp{\default\}@r{]}@c
+@end macro
+
+@c Handling the indexes with Texinfo yields several different problems.
+@c
+@c Because we want to drop out the AC_ part of the macro names in the
+@c printed manual, but not in the other outputs, we need a layer above
+@c the usual @acindex{} etc.  That's why we first define indexes such as
+@c acx meant to become the macro @acindex.  First of all, using ``ac_''
+@c does not work with makeinfo, and using ``ac1'' doesn't work with TeX.
+@c So use something more regular ``acx''.  Then you finish with a printed
+@c index saying ``index is not existent''.  Of course: you ought to use
+@c two letters :(  So you use capitals.
+@c
+@c Second, when defining a macro in the TeX world, following spaces are
+@c eaten.  But then, since we embed @acxindex commands that use the end
+@c of line as an end marker, the whole things wrecks itself.  So make
+@c sure you do *force* an additional end of line, add a ``@c''.
+@c
+@c Finally, you might want to get rid of TeX expansion, using --expand
+@c with texi2dvi.  But then you wake up an old problem: we use macros
+@c in @defmac etc. where TeX does perform the expansion, but not makeinfo.
+
+@c Define an environment variable index, for variables users may set
+@c in their environment or on the configure command line.
+@defcodeindex ev
+@c Define an output variable index, for commonly AC_SUBST'ed variables.
+@defcodeindex ov
+@c Define a cache variable index, for variables matching *_cv_*.
+@defcodeindex CA
+@c Other shell variables not fitting the above categories should be
+@c listed in the predefined vrindex, which we merge in the concept index.
+@syncodeindex vr cp
+@c Define a CPP preprocessor macro index, for #define'd strings.
+@defcodeindex cv
+@c Define an Autoconf macro index that @defmac doesn't write to.
+@defcodeindex AC
+@c Define an Autotest macro index that @defmac doesn't write to.
+@defcodeindex AT
+@c Define an M4sugar macro index that @defmac doesn't write to.
+@defcodeindex MS

+@c portability sections and so on.

+equations, the dual nature of electromagnetic waves, the relativistic
+consequences@enddots{}'' ``An Engineer!,'' said the engineer, ``because
+before making Light, God split the Chaos into Land and Water; it takes a

+shouted: ``And the Chaos, where do you think it was coming from, hmm?''

+
+Autoconf is a tool for producing shell scripts that automatically
+configure software source code packages to adapt to many kinds of
+Posix-like systems.  The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf
+are independent of Autoconf when they are run, so their users do not
+need to have Autoconf.
+
+The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf require no manual user
+intervention when run; they do not normally even need an argument
+specifying the system type.  Instead, they individually test for the
+presence of each feature that the software package they are for might need.
+(Before each check, they print a one-line message stating what they are
+checking for, so the user doesn't get too bored while waiting for the
+script to finish.)  As a result, they deal well with systems that are
+hybrids or customized from the more common Posix variants.  There is
+no need to maintain files that list the features supported by each
+release of each variant of Posix.
+
+For each software package that Autoconf is used with, it creates a
+configuration script from a template file that lists the system features
+that the package needs or can use.  After the shell code to recognize
+and respond to a system feature has been written, Autoconf allows it to
+be shared by many software packages that can use (or need) that feature.
+If it later turns out that the shell code needs adjustment for some
+reason, it needs to be changed in only one place; all of the
+configuration scripts can be regenerated automatically to take advantage
+of the updated code.

+@c "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly."
+@c --Henry Spencer, 1987 (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy)
+Those who do not understand Autoconf are condemned to reinvent it, poorly.
+The primary goal of Autoconf is making the @emph{user's} life easier;
+making the @emph{maintainer's} life easier is only a secondary goal.
+Put another way, the primary goal is not to make the generation of
+@file{configure} automatic for package maintainers (although patches
+along that front are welcome, since package maintainers form the user
+base of Autoconf); rather, the goal is to make @file{configure}
+painless, portable, and predictable for the end user of each
+@dfn{autoconfiscated} package.  And to this degree, Autoconf is highly
+successful at its goal --- most complaints to the Autoconf list are
+about difficulties in writing Autoconf input, and not in the behavior of
+the resulting @file{configure}.  Even packages that don't use Autoconf
+will generally provide a @file{configure} script, and the most common
+complaint about these alternative home-grown scripts is that they fail
+to meet one or more of the GNU Coding Standards (@pxref{Configuration, , ,
+standards, The GNU Coding Standards}) that users
+have come to expect from Autoconf-generated @file{configure} scripts.
+
+The Metaconfig package is similar in purpose to Autoconf, but the
+scripts it produces require manual user intervention, which is quite
+inconvenient when configuring large source trees.  Unlike Metaconfig
+scripts, Autoconf scripts can support cross-compiling, if some care is
+taken in writing them.
+
+Autoconf does not solve all problems related to making portable
+software packages---for a more complete solution, it should be used in
+concert with other GNU build tools like Automake and
+Libtool.  These other tools take on jobs like the creation of a
+portable, recursive makefile with all of the standard targets,
+linking of shared libraries, and so on.  @xref{The GNU Build System},
+for more information.
+
+Autoconf imposes some restrictions on the names of macros used with
+@code{#if} in C programs (@pxref{Preprocessor Symbol Index}).
+
+Autoconf requires GNU M4 version 1.4.6 or later in order to
+generate the scripts.  It uses features that some versions of M4,
+including GNU M4 1.3, do not have.  Autoconf works better
+with GNU M4 version 1.4.14 or later, though this is not
+required.

+Autoconf solves an important problem---reliable discovery of
+system-specific build and runtime information---but this is only one
+piece of the puzzle for the development of portable software.  To this
+end, the GNU project has developed a suite of integrated
+utilities to finish the job Autoconf started: the GNU build
+system, whose most important components are Autoconf, Automake, and
+Libtool.  In this chapter, we introduce you to those tools, point you
+to sources of more information, and try to convince you to use the
+entire GNU build system for your software.

+@section Automake
+
+The ubiquity of @command{make} means that a makefile is almost the
+only viable way to distribute automatic build rules for software, but
+one quickly runs into its numerous limitations.  Its lack of
+support for automatic dependency tracking, recursive builds in
+subdirectories, reliable timestamps (e.g., for network file systems), and
+so on, mean that developers must painfully (and often incorrectly)
+reinvent the wheel for each project.  Portability is non-trivial, thanks
+to the quirks of @command{make} on many systems.  On top of all this is the
+manual labor required to implement the many standard targets that users
+have come to expect (@code{make install}, @code{make distclean},
+@code{make uninstall}, etc.).  Since you are, of course, using Autoconf,
+you also have to insert repetitive code in your @file{Makefile.in} to
+recognize @code{@@CC@@}, @code{@@CFLAGS@@}, and other substitutions
+provided by @command{configure}.  Into this mess steps @dfn{Automake}.
+@cindex Automake
+
+Automake allows you to specify your build needs in a @file{Makefile.am}
+file with a vastly simpler and more powerful syntax than that of a plain
+makefile, and then generates a portable @file{Makefile.in} for
+use with Autoconf.  For example, the @file{Makefile.am} to build and
+install a simple ``Hello world'' program might look like:
+
+@example
+bin_PROGRAMS = hello
+hello_SOURCES = hello.c
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The resulting @file{Makefile.in} (~400 lines) automatically supports all
+the standard targets, the substitutions provided by Autoconf, automatic
+dependency tracking, @code{VPATH} building, and so on.  @command{make}
+builds the @code{hello} program, and @code{make install} installs it
+in @file{/usr/local/bin} (or whatever prefix was given to
+@command{configure}, if not @file{/usr/local}).
+
+The benefits of Automake increase for larger packages (especially ones
+with subdirectories), but even for small programs the added convenience
+and portability can be substantial.  And that's not all@enddots{}
+
+@node Gnulib
+@section Gnulib
+
+GNU software has a well-deserved reputation for running on
+many different types of systems.  While our primary goal is to write
+software for the GNU system, many users and developers have
+been introduced to us through the systems that they were already using.
+
+@cindex Gnulib
+Gnulib is a central location for common GNU code, intended to
+be shared among free software packages.  Its components are typically
+shared at the source level, rather than being a library that gets built,
+installed, and linked against.  The idea is to copy files from Gnulib
+into your own source tree.  There is no distribution tarball; developers
+should just grab source modules from the repository.  The source files
+are available online, under various licenses, mostly GNU
+GPL or GNU LGPL.
+
+Gnulib modules typically contain C source code along with Autoconf
+macros used to configure the source code.  For example, the Gnulib
+@code{stdbool} module implements a @file{stdbool.h} header that nearly
+conforms to C99, even on old-fashioned hosts that lack @file{stdbool.h}.
+This module contains a source file for the replacement header, along
+with an Autoconf macro that arranges to use the replacement header on
+old-fashioned systems.
+
+@node Libtool
+@section Libtool
+
+Often, one wants to build not only programs, but libraries, so that
+other programs can benefit from the fruits of your labor.  Ideally, one
+would like to produce @emph{shared} (dynamically linked) libraries,
+which can be used by multiple programs without duplication on disk or in
+memory and can be updated independently of the linked programs.
+Producing shared libraries portably, however, is the stuff of
+nightmares---each system has its own incompatible tools, compiler flags,
+and magic incantations.  Fortunately, GNU provides a solution:
+@dfn{Libtool}.
+@cindex Libtool
+
+Libtool handles all the requirements of building shared libraries for
+you, and at this time seems to be the @emph{only} way to do so with any
+portability.  It also handles many other headaches, such as: the
+interaction of Make rules with the variable suffixes of
+shared libraries, linking reliably with shared libraries before they are
+installed by the superuser, and supplying a consistent versioning system
+(so that different versions of a library can be installed or upgraded
+without breaking binary compatibility).  Although Libtool, like
+Autoconf, can be used without Automake, it is most simply utilized in
+conjunction with Automake---there, Libtool is used automatically
+whenever shared libraries are needed, and you need not know its syntax.
+
+@node Pointers
+@section Pointers
+
+Developers who are used to the simplicity of @command{make} for small
+projects on a single system might be daunted at the prospect of
+learning to use Automake and Autoconf.  As your software is
+distributed to more and more users, however, you otherwise
+quickly find yourself putting lots of effort into reinventing the
+services that the GNU build tools provide, and making the
+same mistakes that they once made and overcame.  (Besides, since
+you're already learning Autoconf, Automake is a piece of cake.)

+@cindex @command{configure}
+
+The configuration scripts that Autoconf produces are by convention
+called @command{configure}.  When run, @command{configure} creates several
+files, replacing configuration parameters in them with appropriate
+values.  The files that @command{configure} creates are:
+
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+one or more @file{Makefile} files, usually one in each subdirectory of the
+package (@pxref{Makefile Substitutions});
+
+@item
+optionally, a C header file, the name of which is configurable,
+containing @code{#define} directives (@pxref{Configuration Headers});
+
+@item
+a shell script called @file{config.status} that, when run, recreates
+the files listed above (@pxref{config.status Invocation});
+
+@item
+an optional shell script normally called @file{config.cache}
+(created when using @samp{configure --config-cache}) that
+saves the results of running many of the tests (@pxref{Cache Files});
+
+@item
+a file called @file{config.log} containing any messages produced by
+compilers, to help debugging if @command{configure} makes a mistake.
+@end itemize
+
+@cindex @file{configure.in}
+@cindex @file{configure.ac}
+To create a @command{configure} script with Autoconf, you need to write an
+Autoconf input file @file{configure.ac} (or @file{configure.in}) and run
+@command{autoconf} on it.  If you write your own feature tests to
+supplement those that come with Autoconf, you might also write files
+called @file{aclocal.m4} and @file{acsite.m4}.  If you use a C header
+file to contain @code{#define} directives, you might also run
+@command{autoheader}, and you can distribute the generated file
+@file{config.h.in} with the package.
+
+Here is a diagram showing how the files that can be used in
+configuration are produced.  Programs that are executed are suffixed by
+@samp{*}.  Optional files are enclosed in square brackets (@samp{[]}).
+@command{autoconf} and @command{autoheader} also read the installed Autoconf
+macro files (by reading @file{autoconf.m4}).

+@section Writing @file{configure.ac}
+
+To produce a @command{configure} script for a software package, create a
+file called @file{configure.ac} that contains invocations of the
+Autoconf macros that test the system features your package needs or can
+use.  Autoconf macros already exist to check for many features; see
+@ref{Existing Tests}, for their descriptions.  For most other features,
+you can use Autoconf template macros to produce custom checks; see
+@ref{Writing Tests}, for information about them.  For especially tricky
+or specialized features, @file{configure.ac} might need to contain some
+hand-crafted shell commands; see @ref{Portable Shell, , Portable Shell
+Programming}.  The @command{autoscan} program can give you a good start
+in writing @file{configure.ac} (@pxref{autoscan Invocation}, for more
+information).
+
+Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name @file{configure.in},
+which is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process this file is not
+described by its extension), and introduces a slight confusion with
+@file{config.h.in} and so on (for which @samp{.in} means ``to be
+processed by @command{configure}'').  Using @file{configure.ac} is now
+preferred.

+@node Shell Script Compiler
+@subsection A Shell Script Compiler
+
+Just as for any other computer language, in order to properly program
+@file{configure.ac} in Autoconf you must understand @emph{what} problem
+the language tries to address and @emph{how} it does so.
+
+The problem Autoconf addresses is that the world is a mess.  After all,
+you are using Autoconf in order to have your package compile easily on
+all sorts of different systems, some of them being extremely hostile.
+Autoconf itself bears the price for these differences: @command{configure}
+must run on all those systems, and thus @command{configure} must limit itself
+to their lowest common denominator of features.
+
+Naturally, you might then think of shell scripts; who needs
+@command{autoconf}?  A set of properly written shell functions is enough to
+make it easy to write @command{configure} scripts by hand.  Sigh!
+Unfortunately, even in 2008, where shells without any function support are
+far and few between, there are pitfalls to avoid when making use of them.
+Also, finding a Bourne shell that accepts shell functions is not trivial,
+even though there is almost always one on interesting porting targets.
+
+So, what is really needed is some kind of compiler, @command{autoconf},
+that takes an Autoconf program, @file{configure.ac}, and transforms it
+into a portable shell script, @command{configure}.
+
+How does @command{autoconf} perform this task?
+
+There are two obvious possibilities: creating a brand new language or
+extending an existing one.  The former option is attractive: all
+sorts of optimizations could easily be implemented in the compiler and
+many rigorous checks could be performed on the Autoconf program
+(e.g., rejecting any non-portable construct).  Alternatively, you can
+extend an existing language, such as the @code{sh} (Bourne shell)
+language.
+
+Autoconf does the latter: it is a layer on top of @code{sh}.  It was
+therefore most convenient to implement @command{autoconf} as a macro
+expander: a program that repeatedly performs @dfn{macro expansions} on
+text input, replacing macro calls with macro bodies and producing a pure
+@code{sh} script in the end.  Instead of implementing a dedicated
+Autoconf macro expander, it is natural to use an existing
+general-purpose macro language, such as M4, and implement the extensions
+as a set of M4 macros.
+
+
+@node Autoconf Language
+@subsection The Autoconf Language
+@cindex quotation
+
+The Autoconf language differs from many other computer
+languages because it treats actual code the same as plain text.  Whereas
+in C, for instance, data and instructions have different syntactic
+status, in Autoconf their status is rigorously the same.  Therefore, we
+need a means to distinguish literal strings from text to be expanded:
+quotation.
+
+When calling macros that take arguments, there must not be any white
+space between the macro name and the open parenthesis.
+
+@example
+AC_INIT ([oops], [1.0]) # incorrect
+AC_INIT([hello], [1.0]) # good
+@end example
+
+Arguments should
+be enclosed within the quote characters @samp{[} and @samp{]}, and be
+separated by commas.  Any leading blanks or newlines in arguments are ignored,
+unless they are quoted.  You should always quote an argument that
+might contain a macro name, comma, parenthesis, or a leading blank or
+newline.  This rule applies recursively for every macro
+call, including macros called from other macros.  For more details on
+quoting rules, see @ref{Programming in M4}.
+
+For instance:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADER([stdio.h],
+                [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_STDIO_H], [1],
+                   [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+is quoted properly.  You may safely simplify its quotation to:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADER([stdio.h],
+                [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_STDIO_H], 1,
+                   [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+because @samp{1} cannot contain a macro call.  Here, the argument of
+@code{AC_MSG_ERROR} must be quoted; otherwise, its comma would be
+interpreted as an argument separator.  Also, the second and third arguments
+of @samp{AC_CHECK_HEADER} must be quoted, since they contain
+macro calls.  The three arguments @samp{HAVE_STDIO_H}, @samp{stdio.h},
+and @samp{Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.} do not need quoting, but
+if you unwisely defined a macro with a name like @samp{Define} or
+@samp{stdio} then they would need quoting.  Cautious Autoconf users
+would keep the quotes, but many Autoconf users find such precautions
+annoying, and would rewrite the example as follows:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADER(stdio.h,
+                [AC_DEFINE(HAVE_STDIO_H, 1,
+                   [Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.])],
+                [AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This is safe, so long as you adopt good naming conventions and do not
+define macros with names like @samp{HAVE_STDIO_H}, @samp{stdio}, or
+@samp{h}.  Though it is also safe here to omit the quotes around
+@samp{Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.} this is not recommended, as
+message strings are more likely to inadvertently contain commas.
+
+The following example is wrong and dangerous, as it is underquoted:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADER(stdio.h,
+                AC_DEFINE(HAVE_STDIO_H, 1,
+                   Define to 1 if you have <stdio.h>.),
+                AC_MSG_ERROR([sorry, can't do anything for you]))
+@end example
+
+In other cases, you may have to use text that also resembles a macro
+call.  You must quote that text even when it is not passed as a macro
+argument.  For example, these two approaches in @file{configure.ac}
+(quoting just the potential problems, or quoting the entire line) will
+protect your script in case autoconf ever adds a macro @code{AC_DC}:
+
+@example
+echo "Hard rock was here!  --[AC_DC]"
+[echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"]
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+which results in this text in @file{configure}:
+
+@example
+echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"
+echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC_DC"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+When you use the same text in a macro argument, you must therefore have
+an extra quotation level (since one is stripped away by the macro
+substitution).  In general, then, it is a good idea to @emph{use double
+quoting for all literal string arguments}, either around just the
+problematic portions, or over the entire argument:
+
+@example
+AC_MSG_WARN([[AC_DC] stinks  --Iron Maiden])
+AC_MSG_WARN([[AC_DC stinks  --Iron Maiden]])
+@end example
+
+However, the above example triggers a warning about a possibly
+unexpanded macro when running @command{autoconf}, because it collides
+with the namespace of macros reserved for the Autoconf language.  To be
+really safe, you can use additional escaping (either a quadrigraph, or
+creative shell constructs) to silence that particular warning:
+
+@example
+echo "Hard rock was here!  --AC""_DC"
+AC_MSG_WARN([[AC@@&t@@_DC stinks  --Iron Maiden]])
+@end example
+
+You are now able to understand one of the constructs of Autoconf that
+has been continually misunderstood@enddots{}  The rule of thumb is that
+@emph{whenever you expect macro expansion, expect quote expansion};
+i.e., expect one level of quotes to be lost.  For instance:
+
+@example
+AC_COMPILE_IFELSE(AC_LANG_SOURCE([char b[10];]), [],
+ [AC_MSG_ERROR([you lose])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+is incorrect: here, the first argument of @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE} is
+@samp{char b[10];} and is expanded once, which results in
+@samp{char b10;}; and the @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE} is also expanded prior
+to being passed to @code{AC_COMPILE_IFELSE}.  (There was an idiom common
+in Autoconf's past to
+address this issue via the M4 @code{changequote} primitive, but do not
+use it!)  Let's take a closer look: the author meant the first argument
+to be understood as a literal, and therefore it must be quoted twice;
+likewise, the intermediate @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE} macro should be quoted
+once so that it is only expanded after the rest of the body of
+@code{AC_COMPILE_IFELSE} is in place:
+
+@example
+AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_SOURCE([[char b[10];]])], [],
+  [AC_MSG_ERROR([you lose])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Voil@`a, you actually produce @samp{char b[10];} this time!
+
+On the other hand, descriptions (e.g., the last parameter of
+@code{AC_DEFINE} or @code{AS_HELP_STRING}) are not literals---they
+are subject to line breaking, for example---and should not be double quoted.
+Even if these descriptions are short and are not actually broken, double
+quoting them yields weird results.
+
+Some macros take optional arguments, which this documentation represents
+as @ovar{arg} (not to be confused with the quote characters).  You may
+just leave them empty, or use @samp{[]} to make the emptiness of the
+argument explicit, or you may simply omit the trailing commas.  The
+three lines below are equivalent:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h], [], [], [])
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h],,,)
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdio.h])
+@end example
+
+It is best to put each macro call on its own line in
+@file{configure.ac}.  Most of the macros don't add extra newlines; they
+rely on the newline after the macro call to terminate the commands.
+This approach makes the generated @command{configure} script a little
+easier to read by not inserting lots of blank lines.  It is generally
+safe to set shell variables on the same line as a macro call, because
+the shell allows assignments without intervening newlines.
+
+You can include comments in @file{configure.ac} files by starting them
+with the @samp{#}.  For example, it is helpful to begin
+@file{configure.ac} files with a line like this:
+
+@example
+# Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
+@end example
+
+@node Autoconf Input Layout
+@subsection Standard @file{configure.ac} Layout
+
+The order in which @file{configure.ac} calls the Autoconf macros is not
+important, with a few exceptions.  Every @file{configure.ac} must
+contain a call to @code{AC_INIT} before the checks, and a call to
+@code{AC_OUTPUT} at the end (@pxref{Output}).  Additionally, some macros
+rely on other macros having been called first, because they check
+previously set values of some variables to decide what to do.  These
+macros are noted in the individual descriptions (@pxref{Existing
+Tests}), and they also warn you when @command{configure} is created if they
+are called out of order.
+
+To encourage consistency, here is a suggested order for calling the
+Autoconf macros.  Generally speaking, the things near the end of this
+list are those that could depend on things earlier in it.  For example,
+library functions could be affected by types and libraries.

+@node autoscan Invocation
+@section Using @command{autoscan} to Create @file{configure.ac}
+@cindex @command{autoscan}
+
+The @command{autoscan} program can help you create and/or maintain a
+@file{configure.ac} file for a software package.  @command{autoscan}
+examines source files in the directory tree rooted at a directory given
+as a command line argument, or the current directory if none is given.
+It searches the source files for common portability problems and creates
+a file @file{configure.scan} which is a preliminary @file{configure.ac}
+for that package, and checks a possibly existing @file{configure.ac} for
+completeness.
+
+When using @command{autoscan} to create a @file{configure.ac}, you
+should manually examine @file{configure.scan} before renaming it to
+@file{configure.ac}; it probably needs some adjustments.
+Occasionally, @command{autoscan} outputs a macro in the wrong order
+relative to another macro, so that @command{autoconf} produces a warning;
+you need to move such macros manually.  Also, if you want the package to
+use a configuration header file, you must add a call to
+@code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} (@pxref{Configuration Headers}).  You might
+also have to change or add some @code{#if} directives to your program in
+order to make it work with Autoconf (@pxref{ifnames Invocation}, for
+information about a program that can help with that job).
+
+When using @command{autoscan} to maintain a @file{configure.ac}, simply
+consider adding its suggestions.  The file @file{autoscan.log}
+contains detailed information on why a macro is requested.
+
+@command{autoscan} uses several data files (installed along with Autoconf)
+to determine which macros to output when it finds particular symbols in
+a package's source files.  These data files all have the same format:
+each line consists of a symbol, one or more blanks, and the Autoconf macro to
+output if that symbol is encountered.  Lines starting with @samp{#} are
+comments.
+
+@command{autoscan} accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.

+@command{ifnames} can help you write @file{configure.ac} for a software
+package.  It prints the identifiers that the package already uses in C
+preprocessor conditionals.  If a package has already been set up to have
+some portability, @command{ifnames} can thus help you figure out what its
+@command{configure} needs to check for.  It may help fill in some gaps in a
+@file{configure.ac} generated by @command{autoscan} (@pxref{autoscan
+Invocation}).
+
+@command{ifnames} scans all of the C source files named on the command line
+(or the standard input, if none are given) and writes to the standard
+output a sorted list of all the identifiers that appear in those files
+in @code{#if}, @code{#elif}, @code{#ifdef}, or @code{#ifndef}
+directives.  It prints each identifier on a line, followed by a
+space-separated list of the files in which that identifier occurs.

+@section Using @command{autoconf} to Create @command{configure}
+@cindex @command{autoconf}
+
+To create @command{configure} from @file{configure.ac}, run the
+@command{autoconf} program with no arguments.  @command{autoconf} processes
+@file{configure.ac} with the M4 macro processor, using the
+Autoconf macros.  If you give @command{autoconf} an argument, it reads that
+file instead of @file{configure.ac} and writes the configuration script
+to the standard output instead of to @command{configure}.  If you give
+@command{autoconf} the argument @option{-}, it reads from the standard
+input instead of @file{configure.ac} and writes the configuration script
+to the standard output.
+
+The Autoconf macros are defined in several files.  Some of the files are
+distributed with Autoconf; @command{autoconf} reads them first.  Then it
+looks for the optional file @file{acsite.m4} in the directory that
+contains the distributed Autoconf macro files, and for the optional file
+@file{aclocal.m4} in the current directory.  Those files can contain
+your site's or the package's own Autoconf macro definitions
+(@pxref{Writing Autoconf Macros}, for more information).  If a macro is
+defined in more than one of the files that @command{autoconf} reads, the
+last definition it reads overrides the earlier ones.
+
+@command{autoconf} accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option

+@end table
+
+Warnings about @samp{syntax} are enabled by default, and the environment
+variable @env{WARNINGS}, a comma separated list of categories, is
+honored as well.  Passing @option{-W @var{category}} actually behaves as if
+you had passed @option{--warnings syntax,$WARNINGS,@var{category}}.  To
+disable the defaults and @env{WARNINGS}, and then
+enable warnings about obsolete constructs, use @option{-W
+none,obsolete}.
+
+@cindex Back trace
+@cindex Macro invocation stack
+Because @command{autoconf} uses @command{autom4te} behind the scenes, it
+displays a back trace for errors, but not for warnings; if you want
+them, just pass @option{-W error}.  @xref{autom4te Invocation}, for some
+examples.
+
+@item --trace=@var{macro}[:@var{format}]
+@itemx -t @var{macro}[:@var{format}]
+Do not create the @command{configure} script, but list the calls to
+@var{macro} according to the @var{format}.  Multiple @option{--trace}
+arguments can be used to list several macros.  Multiple @option{--trace}
+arguments for a single macro are not cumulative; instead, you should
+just make @var{format} as long as needed.
+
+The @var{format} is a regular string, with newlines if desired, and
+several special escape codes.  It defaults to @samp{$f:$l:$n:$%}; see
+@ref{autom4te Invocation}, for details on the @var{format}.
+
+@item --initialization
+@itemx -i
+By default, @option{--trace} does not trace the initialization of the
+Autoconf macros (typically the @code{AC_DEFUN} definitions).  This
+results in a noticeable speedup, but can be disabled by this option.
+@end table
+
+
+It is often necessary to check the content of a @file{configure.ac}
+file, but parsing it yourself is extremely fragile and error-prone.  It
+is suggested that you rely upon @option{--trace} to scan
+@file{configure.ac}.  For instance, to find the list of variables that
+are substituted, use:
+
+@example
+@group
+$ @kbd{autoconf -t AC_SUBST}
+configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_C
+configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_N
+configure.ac:2:AC_SUBST:ECHO_T
+@i{More traces deleted}
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The example below highlights the difference between @samp{$@@},
+@samp{$*}, and @samp{$%}.
+
+@example
+@group
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_DEFINE(This, is, [an
+[example]])
+$ @kbd{autoconf -t 'AC_DEFINE:@@: $@@}
+*: $*
+%: $%'
+@@: [This],[is],[an
+[example]]
+*: This,is,an
+[example]
+%: This:is:an [example]
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The @var{format} gives you a lot of freedom:
+
+@example
+@group
+$ @kbd{autoconf -t 'AC_SUBST:$$ac_subst@{"$1"@} = "$f:$l";'}
+$ac_subst@{"ECHO_C"@} = "configure.ac:2";
+$ac_subst@{"ECHO_N"@} = "configure.ac:2";
+$ac_subst@{"ECHO_T"@} = "configure.ac:2";
+@i{More traces deleted}
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+A long @var{separator} can be used to improve the readability of complex
+structures, and to ease their parsing (for instance when no single
+character is suitable as a separator):
+
+@example
+@group
+$ @kbd{autoconf -t 'AM_MISSING_PROG:$@{|:::::|@}*'}
+ACLOCAL|:::::|aclocal|:::::|$missing_dir
+AUTOCONF|:::::|autoconf|:::::|$missing_dir

+Installing the various components of the GNU Build System can be
+tedious: running @command{autopoint} for Gettext, @command{automake} for

+because some tools such as @command{automake} have been updated on your

+been updated, or finally, simply in order to install the GNU Build
+System in a fresh tree.
+
+@command{autoreconf} runs @command{autoconf}, @command{autoheader},
+@command{aclocal}, @command{automake}, @command{libtoolize}, and
+@command{autopoint} (when appropriate) repeatedly to update the

+@node Initializing configure
+@section Initializing @command{configure}
+
+Every @command{configure} script must call @code{AC_INIT} before doing
+anything else that produces output.  Calls to silent macros, such as
+@code{AC_DEFUN}, may also occur prior to @code{AC_INIT}, although these
+are generally used via @file{aclocal.m4}, since that is implicitly
+included before the start of @file{configure.ac}.  The only other
+required macro is @code{AC_OUTPUT} (@pxref{Output}).
+
+@anchor{AC_INIT}
+@defmac AC_INIT (@var{package}, @var{version}, @ovar{bug-report}, @
+  @ovar{tarname}, @ovar{url})
+@acindex{INIT}
+Process any command-line arguments and perform initialization
+and verification.
+
+Set the name of the @var{package} and its @var{version}.  These are
+typically used in @option{--version} support, including that of
+@command{configure}.  The optional argument @var{bug-report} should be
+the email to which users should send bug reports.  The package
+@var{tarname} differs from @var{package}: the latter designates the full
+package name (e.g., @samp{GNU Autoconf}), while the former is meant for
+distribution tar ball names (e.g., @samp{autoconf}).  It defaults to
+@var{package} with @samp{GNU } stripped, lower-cased, and all characters
+other than alphanumerics and underscores are changed to @samp{-}.  If
+provided, @var{url} should be the home page for the package.
+
+The arguments of @code{AC_INIT} must be static, i.e., there should not
+be any shell computation, quotes, or newlines, but they can be computed
+by M4.  This is because the package information strings are expanded at
+M4 time into several contexts, and must give the same text at shell time
+whether used in single-quoted strings, double-quoted strings, quoted
+here-documents, or unquoted here-documents.  It is permissible to use
+@code{m4_esyscmd} or @code{m4_esyscmd_s} for computing a version string
+that changes with every commit to a version control system (in fact,
+Autoconf does just that, for all builds of the development tree made
+between releases).
+
+The following M4 macros (e.g., @code{AC_PACKAGE_NAME}), output variables
+(e.g., @code{PACKAGE_NAME}), and preprocessor symbols (e.g.,
+@code{PACKAGE_NAME}), are defined by @code{AC_INIT}:
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{AC_PACKAGE_NAME}, @code{PACKAGE_NAME}
+@acindex{PACKAGE_NAME}
+@ovindex PACKAGE_NAME
+@cvindex PACKAGE_NAME
+Exactly @var{package}.

+@item @code{AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME}, @code{PACKAGE_TARNAME}
+@acindex{PACKAGE_TARNAME}
+@ovindex PACKAGE_TARNAME
+@cvindex PACKAGE_TARNAME
+Exactly @var{tarname}, possibly generated from @var{package}.
+
+@item @code{AC_PACKAGE_VERSION}, @code{PACKAGE_VERSION}
+@acindex{PACKAGE_VERSION}
+@ovindex PACKAGE_VERSION
+@cvindex PACKAGE_VERSION
+Exactly @var{version}.

+
+@item @code{AC_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT}, @code{PACKAGE_BUGREPORT}
+@acindex{PACKAGE_BUGREPORT}
+@ovindex PACKAGE_BUGREPORT
+@cvindex PACKAGE_BUGREPORT
+Exactly @var{bug-report}, if one was provided.  Typically an email
+address, or URL to a bug management web page.
+
+@item @code{AC_PACKAGE_URL}, @code{PACKAGE_URL}
+@acindex{PACKAGE_URL}
+@ovindex PACKAGE_URL
+@cvindex PACKAGE_URL
+Exactly @var{url}, if one was provided.  If @var{url} was empty, but
+@var{package} begins with @samp{GNU }, then this defaults to
+@samp{http://@/www.gnu.org/@/software/@/@var{tarname}/}, otherwise, no URL is
+assumed.
+@end table
+@end defmac
+
+If your @command{configure} script does its own option processing, it
+should inspect @samp{$@@} or @samp{$*} immediately after calling
+@code{AC_INIT}, because other Autoconf macros liberally use the
+@command{set} command to process strings, and this has the side effect
+of updating @samp{$@@} and @samp{$*}.  However, we suggest that you use
+standard macros like @code{AC_ARG_ENABLE} instead of attempting to
+implement your own option processing.  @xref{Site Configuration}.

+@node Versioning
+@section Dealing with Autoconf versions
+@cindex Autoconf version
+@cindex version, Autoconf

+@file{configure.ac}.
+
+@defmac AC_PREREQ (@var{version})
+@acindex{PREREQ}
+@cindex Version

+
+@defmac AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION
+@acindex{AUTOCONF_VERSION}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  It identifies the version
+of Autoconf that is currently parsing the input file, in a format
+suitable for @code{m4_version_compare} (@pxref{m4_version_compare}); in
+other words, for this release of Autoconf, its value is
+@samp{@value{VERSION}}.  One potential use of this macro is for writing
+conditional fallbacks based on when a feature was added to Autoconf,
+rather than using @code{AC_PREREQ} to require the newer version of
+Autoconf.  However, remember that the Autoconf philosophy favors feature
+checks over version checks.
+
+You should not expand this macro directly; use
+@samp{m4_defn([AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION])} instead.  This is because some
+users might
+have a beta version of Autoconf installed, with arbitrary letters
+included in its version string.  This means it is possible for the
+version string to contain the name of a defined macro, such that
+expanding @code{AC_AUTOCONF_VERSION} would trigger the expansion of that
+macro during rescanning, and change the version string to be different
+than what you intended to check.

+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR (@var{dir})
+@acindex{CONFIG_AUX_DIR}
+Use the auxiliary build tools (e.g., @file{install-sh},
+@file{config.sub}, @file{config.guess}, Cygnus @command{configure},
+Automake and Libtool scripts, etc.)@: that are in directory @var{dir}.
+These are auxiliary files used in configuration.  @var{dir} can be

+@file{@var{srcdir}} or @file{@var{srcdir}/..} or
+@file{@var{srcdir}/../..}, whichever is the first that contains
+@file{install-sh}.  The other files are not checked for, so that using
+@code{AC_PROG_INSTALL} does not automatically require distributing the
+other auxiliary files.  It checks for @file{install.sh} also, but that
+name is obsolete because some @command{make} have a rule that creates
+@file{install} from it if there is no makefile.
+
+The auxiliary directory is commonly named @file{build-aux}.
+If you need portability to DOS variants, do not name the

+
+@defmac AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE (@var{file})
+@acindex{REQUIRE_AUX_FILE}

+traced by third-party tools to produce a list of expected auxiliary
+files.  For instance it is called by macros like @code{AC_PROG_INSTALL}
+(@pxref{Particular Programs}) or @code{AC_CANONICAL_BUILD}
+(@pxref{Canonicalizing}) to register the auxiliary files they need.
+@end defmac

+@acindex{CONFIG_MACRO_DIR}
+Specify @var{dir} as the location of additional local Autoconf macros.
+This macro is intended for use by future versions of commands like
+@command{autoreconf} that trace macro calls.  It should be called
+directly from @file{configure.ac} so that tools that install macros for
+@command{aclocal} can find the macros' declarations.
+
+Note that if you use @command{aclocal} from Automake to generate
+@file{aclocal.m4}, you must also set @code{ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I
+@var{dir}} in your top-level @file{Makefile.am}.  Due to a limitation in

+to configure (see @ref{Subdirectories}, macro @code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS})
+are honored.
+
+The location of your @code{AC_OUTPUT} invocation is the exact point
+where configuration actions are taken: any code afterwards is
+executed by @command{configure} once @command{config.status} was run.  If

+(independently of whether @command{configure} is being run), see

+@code{MAKE} to the name of the @command{make} program plus any options it
+was given.  (But many do not include in it the values of any variables
+set on the command line, so those are not passed on automatically.)
+Some old versions of @command{make} do not set this variable.  The

+@node Configuration Actions
+@section Performing Configuration Actions
+@cindex Configuration actions
+
+@file{configure} is designed so that it appears to do everything itself,
+but there is actually a hidden slave: @file{config.status}.
+@file{configure} is in charge of examining your system, but it is
+@file{config.status} that actually takes the proper actions based on the
+results of @file{configure}.  The most typical task of
+@file{config.status} is to @emph{instantiate} files.
+
+@acindex{CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}}
+This section describes the common behavior of the four standard
+instantiating macros: @code{AC_CONFIG_FILES}, @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS},
+@code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} and @code{AC_CONFIG_LINKS}.  They all
+have this prototype:
+
+@c FIXME: Can't use @ovar here, Texinfo 4.0 goes lunatic and emits something
+@c awful.
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}(@var{tag}@dots{}, @r{[}@var{commands}@r{]}, @r{[}@var{init-cmds}@r{]})
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+where the arguments are:
+
+@table @var
+@item tag@dots{}
+A blank-or-newline-separated list of tags, which are typically the names of
+the files to instantiate.
+
+You are encouraged to use literals as @var{tags}.  In particular, you
+should avoid
+
+@example
+@dots{} && my_foos="$my_foos fooo"
+@dots{} && my_foos="$my_foos foooo"
+AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}([$my_foos])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and use this instead:
+
+@example
+@dots{} && AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}([fooo])
+@dots{} && AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}([foooo])
+@end example
+
+The macros @code{AC_CONFIG_FILES} and @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} use
+special @var{tag} values: they may have the form @samp{@var{output}} or
+@samp{@var{output}:@var{inputs}}.  The file @var{output} is instantiated
+from its templates, @var{inputs} (defaulting to @samp{@var{output}.in}).
+
+@samp{AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk])},
+for example, asks for
+the creation of the file @file{Makefile} that contains the expansion of the
+output variables in the concatenation of @file{boiler/top.mk} and
+@file{boiler/bot.mk}.
+
+The special value @samp{-} might be used to denote the standard output
+when used in @var{output}, or the standard input when used in the
+@var{inputs}.  You most probably don't need to use this in
+@file{configure.ac}, but it is convenient when using the command line
+interface of @file{./config.status}, see @ref{config.status Invocation},
+for more details.
+
+The @var{inputs} may be absolute or relative file names.  In the latter
+case they are first looked for in the build tree, and then in the source
+tree.  Input files should be text files, and a line length below 2000
+bytes should be safe.
+
+@item commands
+Shell commands output literally into @file{config.status}, and
+associated with a tag that the user can use to tell @file{config.status}
+which commands to run.  The commands are run each time a @var{tag}
+request is given to @file{config.status}, typically each time the file
+@file{@var{tag}} is created.
+
+The variables set during the execution of @command{configure} are
+@emph{not} available here: you first need to set them via the
+@var{init-cmds}.  Nonetheless the following variables are precomputed:
+
+@table @code
+@item srcdir
+@vrindex srcdir
+The name of the top source directory, assuming that the working
+directory is the top build directory.  This
+is what the @command{configure} option @option{--srcdir} sets.
+
+@item ac_top_srcdir
+@vrindex ac_top_srcdir
+The name of the top source directory, assuming that the working
+directory is the current build directory.
+
+@item ac_top_build_prefix
+@vrindex ac_top_build_prefix
+The name of the top build directory, assuming that the working
+directory is the current build directory.
+It can be empty, or else ends with a slash, so that you may concatenate
+it.
+
+@item ac_srcdir
+@vrindex ac_srcdir
+The name of the corresponding source directory, assuming that the
+working directory is the current build directory.
+
+@item tmp
+@vrindex tmp
+The name of a temporary directory within the build tree, which you
+can use if you need to create additional temporary files.  The
+directory is cleaned up when @command{config.status} is done or
+interrupted.  Please use package-specific file name prefixes to
+avoid clashing with files that @command{config.status} may use
+internally.
+@end table
+
+@noindent
+The @dfn{current} directory refers to the directory (or
+pseudo-directory) containing the input part of @var{tags}.  For
+instance, running
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([deep/dir/out:in/in.in], [@dots{}], [@dots{}])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+ with @option{--srcdir=../package} produces the following values:
+
+@example
+# Argument of --srcdir
+srcdir='../package'
+# Reversing deep/dir
+ac_top_build_prefix='../../'
+# Concatenation of $ac_top_build_prefix and srcdir
+ac_top_srcdir='../../../package'
+# Concatenation of $ac_top_srcdir and deep/dir
+ac_srcdir='../../../package/deep/dir'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+independently of @samp{in/in.in}.
+
+@item init-cmds
+Shell commands output @emph{unquoted} near the beginning of
+@file{config.status}, and executed each time @file{config.status} runs
+(regardless of the tag).  Because they are unquoted, for example,
+@samp{$var} is output as the value of @code{var}.  @var{init-cmds}
+is typically used by @file{configure} to give @file{config.status} some
+variables it needs to run the @var{commands}.
+
+You should be extremely cautious in your variable names: all the
+@var{init-cmds} share the same name space and may overwrite each other
+in unpredictable ways.  Sorry@enddots{}
+@end table
+
+All these macros can be called multiple times, with different
+@var{tag} values, of course!

+Each subdirectory in a distribution that contains something to be

+@subsection Preset Output Variables
+@cindex Output variables
+
+Some output variables are preset by the Autoconf macros.  Some of the
+Autoconf macros set additional output variables, which are mentioned in
+the descriptions for those macros.  @xref{Output Variable Index}, for a
+complete list of output variables.  @xref{Installation Directory
+Variables}, for the list of the preset ones related to installation
+directories.  Below are listed the other preset ones, many of which are
+precious variables (@pxref{Setting Output Variables},
+@code{AC_ARG_VAR}).
+
+The preset variables which are available during @file{config.status}
+(@pxref{Configuration Actions}) may also be used during
+@command{configure} tests.  For example, it is permissible to reference
+@samp{$srcdir} when constructing a list of directories to pass via
+option @option{-I} during a compiler feature check.  When used in this
+manner, coupled with the fact that @command{configure} is always run
+from the top build directory, it is sufficient to use just
+@samp{$srcdir} instead of @samp{$top_srcdir}.
+
+@c Just say no to ASCII sorting!  We're humans, not computers.
+@c These variables are listed as they would be in a dictionary:
+@c actor
+@c Actress
+@c actress
+
+@defvar CFLAGS
+@evindex CFLAGS
+@ovindex CFLAGS
+Debugging and optimization options for the C compiler.  If it is not set
+in the environment when @command{configure} runs, the default value is set
+when you call @code{AC_PROG_CC} (or empty if you don't).  @command{configure}
+uses this variable when compiling or linking programs to test for C features.
+
+If a compiler option affects only the behavior of the preprocessor
+(e.g., @option{-D@var{name}}), it should be put into @code{CPPFLAGS}
+instead.  If it affects only the linker (e.g., @option{-L@var{directory}}),
+it should be put into @code{LDFLAGS} instead.  If it
+affects only the compiler proper, @code{CFLAGS} is the natural home for
+it.  If an option affects multiple phases of the compiler, though,
+matters get tricky.  One approach to put such options directly into
+@code{CC}, e.g., @code{CC='gcc -m64'}.  Another is to put them into both
+@code{CPPFLAGS} and @code{LDFLAGS}, but not into @code{CFLAGS}.
+
+However, remember that some @file{Makefile} variables are reserved by
+the GNU Coding Standards for the use of the ``user''---the person
+building the package.  For instance, @code{CFLAGS} is one such variable.
+
+Sometimes package developers are tempted to set user variables such as
+@code{CFLAGS} because it appears to make their job easier.  However, the
+package itself should never set a user variable, particularly not to
+include switches that are required for proper compilation of the
+package.  Since these variables are documented as being for the package
+builder, that person rightfully expects to be able to override any of
+these variables at build time.  If the package developer needs to add
+switches without interfering with the user, the proper way to do that is
+to introduce an additional variable.  Automake makes this easy by
+introducing @code{AM_CFLAGS} (@pxref{Flag Variables Ordering, , ,
+automake, GNU Automake}), but the concept is the same even if
+Automake is not used.

+@code{AC_OUTPUT} adds a comment line containing this variable to the top
+of every makefile it creates.  For other files, you should
+reference this variable in a comment at the top of each input file.  For
+example, an input shell script should begin like this:
+
+@example
+#!/bin/sh
+# @@configure_input@@
+@end example

+The presence of that line also reminds people editing the file that it
+needs to be processed by @command{configure} in order to be used.

+@evindex CPPFLAGS
+@ovindex CPPFLAGS
+Preprocessor options for the C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++
+preprocessors and compilers.  If
+it is not set in the environment when @command{configure} runs, the default
+value is empty.  @command{configure} uses this variable when preprocessing
+or compiling programs to test for C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++
+features.
+
+This variable's contents should contain options like @option{-I},
+@option{-D}, and @option{-U} that affect only the behavior of the
+preprocessor.  Please see the explanation of @code{CFLAGS} for what you
+can do if an option affects other phases of the compiler as well.
+
+Currently, @command{configure} always links as part of a single
+invocation of the compiler that also preprocesses and compiles, so it
+uses this variable also when linking programs.  However, it is unwise to
+depend on this behavior because the GNU Coding Standards do
+not require it and many packages do not use @code{CPPFLAGS} when linking

+
+Most of these variables have values that rely on @code{prefix} or
+@code{exec_prefix}.  It is deliberate that the directory output
+variables keep them unexpanded: typically @samp{@@datarootdir@@} is
+replaced by @samp{$@{prefix@}/share}, not @samp{/usr/local/share}, and
+@samp{@@datadir@@} is replaced by @samp{$@{datarootdir@}}.
+
+This behavior is mandated by the GNU Coding Standards, so that when
+the user runs:
+
+@table @samp
+@item make
+she can still specify a different prefix from the one specified to
+@command{configure}, in which case, if needed, the package should hard
+code dependencies corresponding to the make-specified prefix.
+
+@item make install
+she can specify a different installation location, in which case the
+package @emph{must} still depend on the location which was compiled in
+(i.e., never recompile when @samp{make install} is run).  This is an
+extremely important feature, as many people may decide to install all
+the files of a package grouped together, and then install links from
+the final locations to there.
+@end table
+
+In order to support these features, it is essential that
+@code{datarootdir} remains defined as @samp{$@{prefix@}/share},
+so that its value can be expanded based
+on the current value of @code{prefix}.
+
+A corollary is that you should not use these variables except in
+makefiles.  For instance, instead of trying to evaluate @code{datadir}
+in @file{configure} and hard-coding it in makefiles using
+e.g., @samp{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([DATADIR], ["$datadir"], [Data directory.])},
+you should add
+@option{-DDATADIR='$(datadir)'} to your makefile's definition of
+@code{CPPFLAGS} (@code{AM_CPPFLAGS} if you are also using Automake).
+
+Similarly, you should not rely on @code{AC_CONFIG_FILES} to replace
+@code{bindir} and friends in your shell scripts and other files; instead,
+let @command{make} manage their replacement.  For instance Autoconf
+ships templates of its shell scripts ending with @samp{.in}, and uses a
+makefile snippet similar to the following to build scripts like
+@command{autoheader} and @command{autom4te}:
+
+@example
+@group
+edit = sed \
+        -e 's|@@bindir[@@]|$(bindir)|g' \
+        -e 's|@@pkgdatadir[@@]|$(pkgdatadir)|g' \
+        -e 's|@@prefix[@@]|$(prefix)|g'
+@end group
+
+@group
+autoheader autom4te: Makefile
+        rm -f $@@ $@@.tmp
+        srcdir=''; \
+          test -f ./$@@.in || srcdir=$(srcdir)/; \
+          $(edit) $$@{srcdir@}$@@.in >$@@.tmp
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+        chmod +x $@@.tmp
+        chmod a-w $@@.tmp
+        mv $@@.tmp $@@
+@end group
+
+@group
+autoheader: $(srcdir)/autoheader.in
+autom4te: $(srcdir)/autom4te.in
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Some details are noteworthy:
+
+@table @asis
+@item @samp{@@bindir[@@]}
+The brackets prevent @command{configure} from replacing
+@samp{@@bindir@@} in the Sed expression itself.
+Brackets are preferable to a backslash here, since
+Posix says @samp{\@@} is not portable.
+
+@item @samp{$(bindir)}
+Don't use @samp{@@bindir@@}!  Use the matching makefile variable
+instead.
+
+@item @samp{$(pkgdatadir)}
+The example takes advantage of the variable @samp{$(pkgdatadir)}
+provided by Automake; it is equivalent to @samp{$(datadir)/$(PACKAGE)}.
+
+@item @samp{/}
+Don't use @samp{/} in the Sed expressions that replace file names since
+most likely the
+variables you use, such as @samp{$(bindir)}, contain @samp{/}.
+Use a shell metacharacter instead, such as @samp{|}.
+
+@item special characters
+File names, file name components, and the value of @code{VPATH} should
+not contain shell metacharacters or white
+space.  @xref{Special Chars in Variables}.
+
+@item dependency on @file{Makefile}
+Since @code{edit} uses values that depend on the configuration specific
+values (@code{prefix}, etc.)@: and not only on @code{VERSION} and so forth,
+the output depends on @file{Makefile}, not @file{configure.ac}.
+
+@item @samp{$@@}
+The main rule is generic, and uses @samp{$@@} extensively to
+avoid the need for multiple copies of the rule.
+
+@item Separated dependencies and single suffix rules
+You can't use them!  The above snippet cannot be (portably) rewritten
+as:
+
+@example
+autoconf autoheader: Makefile
+@group
+.in:
+        rm -f $@@ $@@.tmp
+        $(edit) $< >$@@.tmp
+        chmod +x $@@.tmp
+        mv $@@.tmp $@@
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@xref{Single Suffix Rules}, for details.
+
+@item @samp{$(srcdir)}
+Be sure to specify the name of the source directory,
+otherwise the package won't support separated builds.

+@node Changed Directory Variables
+@subsection Changed Directory Variables
+@cindex @file{datarootdir}
+
+In Autoconf 2.60, the set of directory variables has changed, and the
+defaults of some variables have been adjusted
+(@pxref{Installation Directory Variables}) to changes in the
+GNU Coding Standards.  Notably, @file{datadir}, @file{infodir}, and
+@file{mandir} are now expressed in terms of @file{datarootdir}.  If you are
+upgrading from an earlier Autoconf version, you may need to adjust your files
+to ensure that the directory variables are substituted correctly
+(@pxref{Defining Directories}), and that a definition of @file{datarootdir} is
+in place.  For example, in a @file{Makefile.in}, adding
+
+@example
+datarootdir = @@datarootdir@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+is usually sufficient.  If you use Automake to create @file{Makefile.in},
+it will add this for you.
+
+To help with the transition, Autoconf warns about files that seem to use
+@code{datarootdir} without defining it.  In some cases, it then expands
+the value of @code{$datarootdir} in substitutions of the directory
+variables.  The following example shows such a warning:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_INIT
+AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile])
+AC_OUTPUT
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile.in}
+prefix = @@prefix@@
+datadir = @@datadir@@
+$ @kbd{autoconf}
+$ @kbd{configure}
+configure: creating ./config.status
+config.status: creating Makefile
+config.status: WARNING:
+               Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+prefix = /usr/local
+datadir = $@{prefix@}/share
+@end example
+
+Usually one can easily change the file to accommodate both older and newer
+Autoconf releases:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile.in}
+prefix = @@prefix@@
+datarootdir = @@datarootdir@@
+datadir = @@datadir@@
+$ @kbd{configure}
+configure: creating ./config.status
+config.status: creating Makefile
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+prefix = /usr/local
+datarootdir = $@{prefix@}/share
+datadir = $@{datarootdir@}
+@end example
+
+@acindex{DATAROOTDIR_CHECKED}
+In some cases, however, the checks may not be able to detect that a suitable
+initialization of @code{datarootdir} is in place, or they may fail to detect
+that such an initialization is necessary in the output file.  If, after
+auditing your package, there are still spurious @file{configure} warnings about
+@code{datarootdir}, you may add the line
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([AC_DATAROOTDIR_CHECKED])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+to your @file{configure.ac} to disable the warnings.  This is an exception
+to the usual rule that you should not define a macro whose name begins with
+@code{AC_} (@pxref{Macro Names}).
+
+
+
+@node Build Directories
+@subsection Build Directories
+@cindex Build directories
+@cindex Directories, build
+
+You can support compiling a software package for several architectures
+simultaneously from the same copy of the source code.  The object files
+for each architecture are kept in their own directory.
+
+To support doing this, @command{make} uses the @code{VPATH} variable to
+find the files that are in the source directory.  GNU Make
+can do this.  Most other recent @command{make} programs can do this as
+well, though they may have difficulties and it is often simpler to
+recommend GNU @command{make} (@pxref{VPATH and Make}).  Older
+@command{make} programs do not support @code{VPATH}; when using them, the
+source code must be in the same directory as the object files.
+
+If you are using GNU Automake, the remaining details in this
+section are already covered for you, based on the contents of your
+@file{Makefile.am}.  But if you are using Autoconf in isolation, then
+supporting @code{VPATH} requires the following in your
+@file{Makefile.in}:
+
+@example
+srcdir = @@srcdir@@
+VPATH = @@srcdir@@
+@end example
+
+Do not set @code{VPATH} to the value of another variable (@pxref{Variables
+listed in VPATH}.
+
+@command{configure} substitutes the correct value for @code{srcdir} when
+it produces @file{Makefile}.
+
+Do not use the @command{make} variable @code{$<}, which expands to the
+file name of the file in the source directory (found with @code{VPATH}),
+except in implicit rules.  (An implicit rule is one such as @samp{.c.o},
+which tells how to create a @file{.o} file from a @file{.c} file.)  Some
+versions of @command{make} do not set @code{$<} in explicit rules; they
+expand it to an empty value.
+
+Instead, Make command lines should always refer to source
+files by prefixing them with @samp{$(srcdir)/}.  For example:
+
+@example
+time.info: time.texinfo
+        $(MAKEINFO) '$(srcdir)/time.texinfo'
+@end example
+
+@node Automatic Remaking
+@subsection Automatic Remaking
+@cindex Automatic remaking
+@cindex Remaking automatically
+
+You can put rules like the following in the top-level @file{Makefile.in}
+for a package to automatically update the configuration information when
+you change the configuration files.  This example includes all of the
+optional files, such as @file{aclocal.m4} and those related to
+configuration header files.  Omit from the @file{Makefile.in} rules for
+any of these files that your package does not use.
+
+The @samp{$(srcdir)/} prefix is included because of limitations in the
+@code{VPATH} mechanism.
+
+The @file{stamp-} files are necessary because the timestamps of
+@file{config.h.in} and @file{config.h} are not changed if remaking
+them does not change their contents.  This feature avoids unnecessary
+recompilation.  You should include the file @file{stamp-h.in} in your
+package's distribution, so that @command{make} considers
+@file{config.h.in} up to date.  Don't use @command{touch}
+(@pxref{touch, , Limitations of Usual Tools}); instead, use
+@command{echo} (using
+@command{date} would cause needless differences, hence CVS
+conflicts, etc.).
+
+@example
+@group
+$(srcdir)/configure: configure.ac aclocal.m4
+        cd '$(srcdir)' && autoconf
+
+# autoheader might not change config.h.in, so touch a stamp file.
+$(srcdir)/config.h.in: stamp-h.in
+$(srcdir)/stamp-h.in: configure.ac aclocal.m4
+        cd '$(srcdir)' && autoheader
+        echo timestamp > '$(srcdir)/stamp-h.in'
+
+config.h: stamp-h
+stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+        ./config.status
+
+Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+        ./config.status
+
+config.status: configure
+        ./config.status --recheck
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(Be careful if you copy these lines directly into your makefile, as you
+need to convert the indented lines to start with the tab character.)
+
+In addition, you should use
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_FILES([stamp-h], [echo timestamp > stamp-h])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+so @file{config.status} ensures that @file{config.h} is considered up to
+date.  @xref{Output}, for more information about @code{AC_OUTPUT}.

+
+@node Configuration Headers
+@section Configuration Header Files
+@cindex Configuration Header
+@cindex @file{config.h}
+
+When a package contains more than a few tests that define C preprocessor
+symbols, the command lines to pass @option{-D} options to the compiler
+can get quite long.  This causes two problems.  One is that the
+@command{make} output is hard to visually scan for errors.  More
+seriously, the command lines can exceed the length limits of some
+operating systems.  As an alternative to passing @option{-D} options to
+the compiler, @command{configure} scripts can create a C header file
+containing @samp{#define} directives.  The @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}
+macro selects this kind of output.  Though it can be called anywhere
+between @code{AC_INIT} and @code{AC_OUTPUT}, it is customary to call
+it right after @code{AC_INIT}.
+
+The package should @samp{#include} the configuration header file before
+any other header files, to prevent inconsistencies in declarations (for
+example, if it redefines @code{const}).
+
+To provide for VPATH builds, remember to pass the C compiler a @option{-I.}
+option (or @option{-I..}; whichever directory contains @file{config.h}).
+Even if you use @samp{#include "config.h"}, the preprocessor searches only
+the directory of the currently read file, i.e., the source directory, not
+the build directory.
+
+With the appropriate @option{-I} option, you can use
+@samp{#include <config.h>}.  Actually, it's a good habit to use it,
+because in the rare case when the source directory contains another
+@file{config.h}, the build directory should be searched first.
+
+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_HEADERS (@var{header} @dots{}, @ovar{cmds}, @ovar{init-cmds})
+@acindex{CONFIG_HEADERS}
+@cvindex HAVE_CONFIG_H
+This macro is one of the instantiating macros; see @ref{Configuration
+Actions}.  Make @code{AC_OUTPUT} create the file(s) in the
+blank-or-newline-separated list @var{header} containing C preprocessor
+@code{#define} statements, and replace @samp{@@DEFS@@} in generated
+files with @option{-DHAVE_CONFIG_H} instead of the value of @code{DEFS}.
+The usual name for @var{header} is @file{config.h}.
+
+If @var{header} already exists and its contents are identical to what
+@code{AC_OUTPUT} would put in it, it is left alone.  Doing this allows
+making some changes in the configuration without needlessly causing
+object files that depend on the header file to be recompiled.
+
+Usually the input file is named @file{@var{header}.in}; however, you can
+override the input file name by appending to @var{header} a
+colon-separated list of input files.  For example, you might need to make
+the input file name acceptable to DOS variants:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h:config.hin])
+@end example
+
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AH_HEADER
+@ahindex{HEADER}
+This macro is defined as the name of the first declared config header
+and undefined if no config headers have been declared up to this point.
+A third-party macro may, for example, require use of a config header
+without invoking AC_CONFIG_HEADERS twice, like this:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE(
+        [m4_ifndef([AH_HEADER], [AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])])])
+@end example
+
+@end defmac

+@example

+/* Define as 1 if you have unistd.h.  */
+#undef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The format of the template file is stricter than what the C preprocessor
+is required to accept.  A directive line should contain only whitespace,
+@samp{#undef}, and @samp{HAVE_UNISTD_H}.  The use of @samp{#define}
+instead of @samp{#undef}, or of comments on the same line as
+@samp{#undef}, is strongly discouraged.  Each hook should only be listed
+once.  Other preprocessor lines, such as @samp{#ifdef} or
+@samp{#include}, are copied verbatim from the template into the
+generated header.
+
+Since it is a tedious task to keep a template header up to date, you may
+use @command{autoheader} to generate it, see @ref{autoheader Invocation}.
+
+During the instantiation of the header, each @samp{#undef} line in the
+template file for each symbol defined by @samp{AC_DEFINE} is changed to an
+appropriate @samp{#define}. If the corresponding @samp{AC_DEFINE} has not
+been executed during the @command{configure} run, the @samp{#undef} line is
+commented out.  (This is important, e.g., for @samp{_POSIX_SOURCE}:
+on many systems, it can be implicitly defined by the compiler, and
+undefining it in the header would then break compilation of subsequent
+headers.)
+
+Currently, @emph{all} remaining @samp{#undef} lines in the header
+template are commented out, whether or not there was a corresponding
+@samp{AC_DEFINE} for the macro name; but this behavior is not guaranteed
+for future releases of Autoconf.
+
+Generally speaking, since you should not use @samp{#define}, and you
+cannot guarantee whether a @samp{#undef} directive in the header
+template will be converted to a @samp{#define} or commented out in the
+generated header file, the template file cannot be used for conditional
+definition effects.  Consequently, if you need to use the construct
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifdef THIS
+# define THAT
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+you must place it outside of the template.
+If you absolutely need to hook it to the config header itself, please put
+the directives to a separate file, and @samp{#include} that file from the
+config header template.  If you are using @command{autoheader}, you would
+probably use @samp{AH_BOTTOM} to append the @samp{#include} directive.
+
+
+@node autoheader Invocation
+@subsection Using @command{autoheader} to Create @file{config.h.in}
+@cindex @command{autoheader}
+
+The @command{autoheader} program can create a template file of C
+@samp{#define} statements for @command{configure} to use.
+It searches for the first invocation of @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} in
+@file{configure} sources to determine the name of the template.
+(If the first call of @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} specifies more than one
+input file name, @command{autoheader} uses the first one.)
+
+It is recommended that only one input file is used.  If you want to append
+a boilerplate code, it is preferable to use
+@samp{AH_BOTTOM([#include <conf_post.h>])}.
+File @file{conf_post.h} is not processed during the configuration then,
+which make things clearer.  Analogically, @code{AH_TOP} can be used to
+prepend a boilerplate code.
+
+In order to do its job, @command{autoheader} needs you to document all
+of the symbols that you might use.  Typically this is done via an
+@code{AC_DEFINE} or @code{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED} call whose first argument
+is a literal symbol and whose third argument describes the symbol
+(@pxref{Defining Symbols}).  Alternatively, you can use
+@code{AH_TEMPLATE} (@pxref{Autoheader Macros}), or you can supply a
+suitable input file for a subsequent configuration header file.
+Symbols defined by Autoconf's builtin tests are already documented properly;
+you need to document only those that you
+define yourself.
+
+You might wonder why @command{autoheader} is needed: after all, why
+would @command{configure} need to ``patch'' a @file{config.h.in} to
+produce a @file{config.h} instead of just creating @file{config.h} from
+scratch?  Well, when everything rocks, the answer is just that we are
+wasting our time maintaining @command{autoheader}: generating
+@file{config.h} directly is all that is needed.  When things go wrong,
+however, you'll be thankful for the existence of @command{autoheader}.
+
+The fact that the symbols are documented is important in order to
+@emph{check} that @file{config.h} makes sense.  The fact that there is a
+well-defined list of symbols that should be defined (or not) is
+also important for people who are porting packages to environments where
+@command{configure} cannot be run: they just have to @emph{fill in the
+blanks}.
+
+But let's come back to the point: the invocation of @command{autoheader}@dots{}
+
+If you give @command{autoheader} an argument, it uses that file instead
+of @file{configure.ac} and writes the header file to the standard output
+instead of to @file{config.h.in}.  If you give @command{autoheader} an
+argument of @option{-}, it reads the standard input instead of
+@file{configure.ac} and writes the header file to the standard output.
+
+@command{autoheader} accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+@item --verbose
+@itemx -v
+Report processing steps.
+
+@item --debug
+@itemx -d
+Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+@item --force
+@itemx -f
+Remake the template file even if newer than its input files.
+
+@item --include=@var{dir}
+@itemx -I @var{dir}
+Append @var{dir} to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+@item --prepend-include=@var{dir}
+@itemx -B @var{dir}
+Prepend @var{dir} to the include path.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+
+@item --warnings=@var{category}
+@itemx -W @var{category}
+@evindex WARNINGS
+Report the warnings related to @var{category} (which can actually be a
+comma separated list).  Current categories include:
+
+@table @samp
+@item obsolete
+report the uses of obsolete constructs
+
+@item all
+report all the warnings
+
+@item none
+report none
+
+@item error
+treats warnings as errors
+
+@item no-@var{category}
+disable warnings falling into @var{category}

+@node Autoheader Macros
+@subsection Autoheader Macros
+@cindex Autoheader macros
+
+@command{autoheader} scans @file{configure.ac} and figures out which C
+preprocessor symbols it might define.  It knows how to generate
+templates for symbols defined by @code{AC_CHECK_HEADERS},
+@code{AC_CHECK_FUNCS} etc., but if you @code{AC_DEFINE} any additional
+symbol, you must define a template for it.  If there are missing
+templates, @command{autoheader} fails with an error message.
+
+The template for a @var{symbol} is created
+by @command{autoheader} from
+the @var{description} argument to an @code{AC_DEFINE};
+see @ref{Defining Symbols}.
+
+For special needs, you can use the following macros.
+
+
+@defmac AH_TEMPLATE (@var{key}, @var{description})
+@ahindex{TEMPLATE}
+Tell @command{autoheader} to generate a template for @var{key}.  This macro
+generates standard templates just like @code{AC_DEFINE} when a
+@var{description} is given.
+
+For example:
+
+@example
+AH_TEMPLATE([CRAY_STACKSEG_END],
+            [Define to one of _getb67, GETB67, getb67
+             for Cray-2 and Cray-YMP systems.  This
+             function is required for alloca.c support
+             on those systems.])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+generates the following template, with the description properly
+justified.
+
+@example
+/* Define to one of _getb67, GETB67, getb67 for Cray-2 and
+   Cray-YMP systems.  This function is required for alloca.c
+   support on those systems.  */
+#undef CRAY_STACKSEG_END
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+
+@defmac AH_VERBATIM (@var{key}, @var{template})
+@ahindex{VERBATIM}
+Tell @command{autoheader} to include the @var{template} as-is in the header
+template file.  This @var{template} is associated with the @var{key},
+which is used to sort all the different templates and guarantee their
+uniqueness.  It should be a symbol that can be defined via @code{AC_DEFINE}.
+@end defmac
+
+
+@defmac AH_TOP (@var{text})
+@ahindex{TOP}
+Include @var{text} at the top of the header template file.
+@end defmac
+
+
+@defmac AH_BOTTOM (@var{text})
+@ahindex{BOTTOM}
+Include @var{text} at the bottom of the header template file.
+@end defmac
+
+
+Please note that @var{text} gets included ``verbatim'' to the template file,
+not to the resulting config header, so it can easily get mangled when the
+template is processed.  There is rarely a need for something other than
+
+@example
+AH_BOTTOM([#include <custom.h>])

+
+@node Configuration Commands
+@section Running Arbitrary Configuration Commands
+@cindex Configuration commands
+@cindex Commands for configuration
+
+You can execute arbitrary commands before, during, and after
+@file{config.status} is run.  The three following macros accumulate the
+commands to run when they are called multiple times.
+@code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} replaces the obsolete macro
+@code{AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS}; see @ref{Obsolete Macros}, for details.
+
+@anchor{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS}
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS (@var{tag}@dots{}, @ovar{cmds}, @ovar{init-cmds})
+@acindex{CONFIG_COMMANDS}
+Specify additional shell commands to run at the end of
+@file{config.status}, and shell commands to initialize any variables
+from @command{configure}.  Associate the commands with @var{tag}.
+Since typically the @var{cmds} create a file, @var{tag} should
+naturally be the name of that file.  If needed, the directory hosting
+@var{tag} is created.  This macro is one of the instantiating macros;
+see @ref{Configuration Actions}.
+
+Here is an unrealistic example:
+@example
+fubar=42
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([fubar],
+                   [echo this is extra $fubar, and so on.],
+                   [fubar=$fubar])
+@end example
+
+Here is a better one:
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([timestamp], [date >timestamp])
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+The following two macros look similar, but in fact they are not of the same
+breed: they are executed directly by @file{configure}, so you cannot use
+@file{config.status} to rerun them.
+
+@c Yet it is good to leave them here.  The user sees them together and
+@c decides which best fits their needs.
+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE (@var{cmds})
+@acindex{CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE}
+Execute the @var{cmds} right before creating @file{config.status}.
+
+This macro presents the last opportunity to call @code{AC_SUBST},
+@code{AC_DEFINE}, or @code{AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}} macros.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_POST (@var{cmds})
+@acindex{CONFIG_COMMANDS_POST}
+Execute the @var{cmds} right after creating @file{config.status}.
+@end defmac
+

+
+@node Configuration Links
+@section Creating Configuration Links
+@cindex Configuration links
+@cindex Links for configuration
+
+You may find it convenient to create links whose destinations depend upon
+results of tests.  One can use @code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} but the
+creation of relative symbolic links can be delicate when the package is
+built in a directory different from the source directory.
+
+@anchor{AC_CONFIG_LINKS}
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_LINKS (@var{dest}:@var{source}@dots{}, @ovar{cmds}, @
+  @ovar{init-cmds})
+@acindex{CONFIG_LINKS}
+@cindex Links
+Make @code{AC_OUTPUT} link each of the existing files @var{source} to
+the corresponding link name @var{dest}.  Makes a symbolic link if
+possible, otherwise a hard link if possible, otherwise a copy.  The
+@var{dest} and @var{source} names should be relative to the top level
+source or build directory.  This macro is one of the instantiating
+macros; see @ref{Configuration Actions}.
+
+For example, this call:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_LINKS([host.h:config/$machine.h
+                object.h:config/$obj_format.h])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+creates in the current directory @file{host.h} as a link to
+@file{@var{srcdir}/config/$machine.h}, and @file{object.h} as a
+link to @file{@var{srcdir}/config/$obj_format.h}.
+
+The tempting value @samp{.} for @var{dest} is invalid: it makes it
+impossible for @samp{config.status} to guess the links to establish.
+
+One can then run:
+@example
+./config.status host.h object.h
+@end example
+@noindent
+to create the links.
+@end defmac
+
+
+
+@node Subdirectories
+@section Configuring Other Packages in Subdirectories
+@cindex Configure subdirectories
+@cindex Subdirectory configure
+
+In most situations, calling @code{AC_OUTPUT} is sufficient to produce
+makefiles in subdirectories.  However, @command{configure} scripts
+that control more than one independent package can use
+@code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS} to run @command{configure} scripts for other
+packages in subdirectories.
+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS (@var{dir} @dots{})
+@acindex{CONFIG_SUBDIRS}
+@ovindex subdirs
+Make @code{AC_OUTPUT} run @command{configure} in each subdirectory
+@var{dir} in the given blank-or-newline-separated list.  Each @var{dir} should
+be a literal, i.e., please do not use:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/torture.at:Non-literal AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS.
+if test "x$package_foo_enabled" = xyes; then
+  my_subdirs="$my_subdirs foo"
+fi
+AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([$my_subdirs])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+because this prevents @samp{./configure --help=recursive} from
+displaying the options of the package @code{foo}.  Instead, you should
+write:
+
+@example
+if test "x$package_foo_enabled" = xyes; then
+  AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([foo])
+fi
+@end example
+
+If a given @var{dir} is not found at @command{configure} run time, a
+warning is reported; if the subdirectory is optional, write:
+
+@example
+if test -d "$srcdir/foo"; then
+  AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([foo])
+fi
+@end example
+
+@c NB: Yes, below we mean configure.in, not configure.ac.
+If a given @var{dir} contains @command{configure.gnu}, it is run instead
+of @command{configure}.  This is for packages that might use a
+non-Autoconf script @command{Configure}, which can't be called through a
+wrapper @command{configure} since it would be the same file on
+case-insensitive file systems.  Likewise, if a @var{dir} contains
+@file{configure.in} but no @command{configure}, the Cygnus
+@command{configure} script found by @code{AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR} is used.
+
+The subdirectory @command{configure} scripts are given the same command
+line options that were given to this @command{configure} script, with minor
+changes if needed, which include:
+
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+adjusting a relative name for the cache file;
+
+@item
+adjusting a relative name for the source directory;
+
+@item
+propagating the current value of @code{$prefix}, including if it was
+defaulted, and if the default values of the top level and of the subdirectory
+@file{configure} differ.
+@end itemize
+
+This macro also sets the output variable @code{subdirs} to the list of
+directories @samp{@var{dir} @dots{}}.  Make rules can use
+this variable to determine which subdirectories to recurse into.
+
+This macro may be called multiple times.
+@end defmac
+
+@node Default Prefix
+@section Default Prefix
+@cindex Install prefix
+@cindex Prefix for install
+
+By default, @command{configure} sets the prefix for files it installs to
+@file{/usr/local}.  The user of @command{configure} can select a different
+prefix using the @option{--prefix} and @option{--exec-prefix} options.
+There are two ways to change the default: when creating
+@command{configure}, and when running it.
+
+Some software packages might want to install in a directory other than
+@file{/usr/local} by default.  To accomplish that, use the
+@code{AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT} macro.
+
+@defmac AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT (@var{prefix})
+@acindex{PREFIX_DEFAULT}
+Set the default installation prefix to @var{prefix} instead of
+@file{/usr/local}.
+@end defmac
+
+It may be convenient for users to have @command{configure} guess the
+installation prefix from the location of a related program that they
+have already installed.  If you wish to do that, you can call
+@code{AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM}.
+
+@anchor{AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM}
+@defmac AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM (@var{program})
+@acindex{PREFIX_PROGRAM}
+If the user did not specify an installation prefix (using the
+@option{--prefix} option), guess a value for it by looking for
+@var{program} in @env{PATH}, the way the shell does.  If @var{program}
+is found, set the prefix to the parent of the directory containing
+@var{program}, else default the prefix as described above
+(@file{/usr/local} or @code{AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT}).  For example, if
+@var{program} is @code{gcc} and the @env{PATH} contains
+@file{/usr/local/gnu/bin/gcc}, set the prefix to @file{/usr/local/gnu}.

+@subsection Standard Symbols
+@cindex Standard symbols
+
+All the generic macros that @code{AC_DEFINE} a symbol as a result of
+their test transform their @var{argument} values to a standard alphabet.
+First, @var{argument} is converted to upper case and any asterisks
+(@samp{*}) are each converted to @samp{P}.  Any remaining characters
+that are not alphanumeric are converted to underscores.
+
+For instance,
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_TYPES([struct $Expensive*])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+defines the symbol @samp{HAVE_STRUCT__EXPENSIVEP} if the check
+succeeds.
+
+
+@node Default Includes
+@subsection Default Includes
+@cindex Default includes
+@cindex Includes, default
+
+Several tests depend upon a set of header files.  Since these headers
+are not universally available, tests actually have to provide a set of
+protected includes, such as:
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifdef TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME
+# include <sys/time.h>
+# include <time.h>
+#else
+# ifdef HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
+#  include <sys/time.h>
+# else
+#  include <time.h>
+# endif
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Unless you know exactly what you are doing, you should avoid using
+unconditional includes, and check the existence of the headers you
+include beforehand (@pxref{Header Files}).
+
+Most generic macros use the following macro to provide the default set
+of includes:
+
+@defmac AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT (@ovar{include-directives})
+@acindex{INCLUDES_DEFAULT}
+Expand to @var{include-directives} if defined, otherwise to:
+
+@example
+@group
+#include <stdio.h>
+#ifdef HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H
+# include <sys/types.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_SYS_STAT_H
+# include <sys/stat.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef STDC_HEADERS
+# include <stdlib.h>
+# include <stddef.h>
+#else
+# ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H
+#  include <stdlib.h>
+# endif
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_STRING_H
+# if !defined STDC_HEADERS && defined HAVE_MEMORY_H
+#  include <memory.h>
+# endif
+# include <string.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_STRINGS_H
+# include <strings.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_INTTYPES_H
+# include <inttypes.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_STDINT_H
+# include <stdint.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H
+# include <unistd.h>
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+If the default includes are used, then check for the presence of these
+headers and their compatibility, i.e., you don't need to run
+@code{AC_HEADER_STDC}, nor check for @file{stdlib.h} etc.
+
+These headers are checked for in the same order as they are included.
+For instance, on some systems @file{string.h} and @file{strings.h} both
+exist, but conflict.  Then @code{HAVE_STRING_H} is defined, not
+@code{HAVE_STRINGS_H}.

+Set output variable @code{INSTALL} to the name of a BSD-compatible
+@command{install} program, if one is found in the current @env{PATH}.
+Otherwise, set @code{INSTALL} to @samp{@var{dir}/install-sh -c},
+checking the directories specified to @code{AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR} (or its
+default directories) to determine @var{dir} (@pxref{Output}).  Also set
+the variables @code{INSTALL_PROGRAM} and @code{INSTALL_SCRIPT} to
+@samp{$@{INSTALL@}} and @code{INSTALL_DATA} to @samp{$@{INSTALL@} -m 644}.
+
+@samp{@@INSTALL@@} is special, as its value may vary for different
+configuration files.
+
+This macro screens out various instances of @command{install} known not to
+work.  It prefers to find a C program rather than a shell script, for
+speed.  Instead of @file{install-sh}, it can also use @file{install.sh},
+but that name is obsolete because some @command{make} programs have a rule
+that creates @file{install} from it if there is no makefile.  Further, this
+macro requires @command{install} to be able to install multiple files into a
+target directory in a single invocation.
+
+Autoconf comes with a copy of @file{install-sh} that you can use.  If
+you use @code{AC_PROG_INSTALL}, you must include either
+@file{install-sh} or @file{install.sh} in your distribution; otherwise
+@command{configure} produces an error message saying it can't find
+them---even if the system you're on has a good @command{install} program.
+This check is a safety measure to prevent you from accidentally leaving
+that file out, which would prevent your package from installing on
+systems that don't have a BSD-compatible @command{install} program.
+
+If you need to use your own installation program because it has features
+not found in standard @command{install} programs, there is no reason to use
+@code{AC_PROG_INSTALL}; just put the file name of your program into your
+@file{Makefile.in} files.
+
+The result of the test can be overridden by setting the variable
+@code{INSTALL} or the cache variable @code{ac_cv_path_install}.

+Set output variable @code{MKDIR_P} to a program that ensures that for
+each argument, a directory named by this argument exists, creating it
+and its parent directories if needed, and without race conditions when
+two instances of the program attempt to make the same directory at
+nearly the same time.
+
+This macro uses the @samp{mkdir -p} command if possible.  Otherwise, it
+falls back on invoking @command{install-sh} with the @option{-d} option,
+so your package should
+contain @file{install-sh} as described under @code{AC_PROG_INSTALL}.
+An @file{install-sh} file that predates Autoconf 2.60 or Automake 1.10
+is vulnerable to race conditions, so if you want to support parallel
+installs from
+different packages into the same directory you need to make sure you
+have an up-to-date @file{install-sh}.  In particular, be careful about
+using @samp{autoreconf -if} if your Automake predates Automake 1.10.
+
+This macro is related to the @code{AS_MKDIR_P} macro (@pxref{Programming
+in M4sh}), but it sets an output variable intended for use in other
+files, whereas @code{AS_MKDIR_P} is intended for use in scripts like
+@command{configure}.  Also, @code{AS_MKDIR_P} does not accept options,
+but @code{MKDIR_P} supports the @option{-m} option, e.g., a makefile
+might invoke @code{$(MKDIR_P) -m 0 dir} to create an inaccessible
+directory, and conversely a makefile should use @code{$(MKDIR_P) --
+$(FOO)} if @var{FOO} might yield a value that begins with @samp{-}.
+Finally, @code{AS_MKDIR_P} does not check for race condition
+vulnerability, whereas @code{AC_PROG_MKDIR_P} does.
+
+@samp{@@MKDIR_P@@} is special, as its value may vary for different
+configuration files.
+
+The result of the test can be overridden by setting the variable
+@code{MKDIR_P} or the cache variable @code{ac_cv_path_mkdir}.

+If @code{flex} is found, set output variable @code{LEX} to @samp{flex}
+and @code{LEXLIB} to @option{-lfl}, if that library is in a standard
+place.  Otherwise set @code{LEX} to @samp{lex} and @code{LEXLIB} to
+@option{-ll}, if found.  If neither variant is available, set @code{LEX}
+to @samp{:}; for packages that ship the generated @file{file.yy.c}
+alongside the source @file{file.l}, this default allows users without a
+lexer generator to still build the package even if the timestamp for
+@file{file.l} is inadvertently changed.
+
+Define @code{YYTEXT_POINTER} if @code{yytext} defaults to @samp{char *} instead
+of to @samp{char []}.  Also set output variable @code{LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT} to
+the base of the file name that the lexer generates; usually
+@file{lex.yy}, but sometimes something else.  These results vary
+according to whether @code{lex} or @code{flex} is being used.
+
+You are encouraged to use Flex in your sources, since it is both more
+pleasant to use than plain Lex and the C source it produces is portable.
+In order to ensure portability, however, you must either provide a
+function @code{yywrap} or, if you don't use it (e.g., your scanner has
+no @samp{#include}-like feature), simply include a @samp{%noyywrap}
+statement in the scanner's source.  Once this done, the scanner is
+portable (unless @emph{you} felt free to use nonportable constructs) and
+does not depend on any library.  In this case, and in this case only, it
+is suggested that you use this Autoconf snippet:
+
+@example
+AC_PROG_LEX
+if test "x$LEX" != xflex; then
+  LEX="$SHELL $missing_dir/missing flex"
+  AC_SUBST([LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT], [lex.yy])
+  AC_SUBST([LEXLIB], [''])
+fi
+@end example
+
+The shell script @command{missing} can be found in the Automake
+distribution.
+
+Remember that the user may have supplied an alternate location in
+@env{LEX}, so if Flex is required, it is better to check that the user
+provided something sufficient by parsing the output of @samp{$LEX
+--version} than by simply relying on @code{test "x$LEX" = xflex}.
+
+To ensure backward compatibility, Automake's @code{AM_PROG_LEX} invokes
+(indirectly) this macro twice, which causes an annoying but benign
+``@code{AC_PROG_LEX} invoked multiple times'' warning.  Future versions
+of Automake will fix this issue; meanwhile, just ignore this message.
+
+As part of running the test, this macro may delete any file in the
+configuration directory named @file{lex.yy.c} or @file{lexyy.c}.
+
+The result of this test can be influenced by setting the variable
+@code{LEX} or the cache variable @code{ac_cv_prog_LEX}.

+@acindex{CHECK_LIB}
+@caindex lib_@var{library}_@var{function}
+Test whether the library @var{library} is available by trying to link
+a test program that calls function @var{function} with the library.
+@var{function} should be a function provided by the library.
+Use the base
+name of the library; e.g., to check for @option{-lmp}, use @samp{mp} as
+the @var{library} argument.
+
+@var{action-if-found} is a list of shell commands to run if the link
+with the library succeeds; @var{action-if-not-found} is a list of shell
+commands to run if the link fails.  If @var{action-if-found} is not
+specified, the default action prepends @option{-l@var{library}} to
+@code{LIBS} and defines @samp{HAVE_LIB@var{library}} (in all
+capitals).  This macro is intended to support building @code{LIBS} in
+a right-to-left (least-dependent to most-dependent) fashion such that
+library dependencies are satisfied as a natural side effect of
+consecutive tests.  Linkers are sensitive to library ordering
+so the order in which @code{LIBS} is generated is important to reliable
+detection of libraries.
+
+If linking with @var{library} results in unresolved symbols that would
+be resolved by linking with additional libraries, give those libraries
+as the @var{other-libraries} argument, separated by spaces:
+e.g., @option{-lXt -lX11}.  Otherwise, this macro may fail to detect
+that @var{library} is present, because linking the test program can
+fail with unresolved symbols.  The @var{other-libraries} argument
+should be limited to cases where it is desirable to test for one library
+in the presence of another that is not already in @code{LIBS}.
+
+@code{AC_CHECK_LIB} requires some care in usage, and should be avoided
+in some common cases.  Many standard functions like @code{gethostbyname}
+appear in the standard C library on some hosts, and in special libraries
+like @code{nsl} on other hosts.  On some hosts the special libraries
+contain variant implementations that you may not want to use.  These
+days it is normally better to use @code{AC_SEARCH_LIBS([gethostbyname],

+@table @asis
+@item @code{exit}
+@c @fuindex exit
+@prindex @code{exit}
+On ancient hosts, @code{exit} returned @code{int}.
+This is because @code{exit} predates @code{void}, and there was a long
+tradition of it returning @code{int}.
+
+On current hosts, the problem more likely is that @code{exit} is not
+declared, due to C++ problems of some sort or another.  For this reason
+we suggest that test programs not invoke @code{exit}, but return from
+@code{main} instead.
+
+@item @code{free}
+@c @fuindex free
+@prindex @code{free}
+The C standard says a call @code{free (NULL)} does nothing, but
+some old systems don't support this (e.g., NextStep).
+
+@item @code{isinf}
+@itemx @code{isnan}
+@c @fuindex isinf
+@c @fuindex isnan
+@prindex @code{isinf}
+@prindex @code{isnan}
+The C99 standard says that @code{isinf} and @code{isnan} are
+macros.  On some systems just macros are available
+(e.g., HP-UX and Solaris 10), on
+some systems both macros and functions (e.g., glibc 2.3.2), and on some
+systems only functions (e.g., IRIX 6 and Solaris 9).  In some cases
+these functions are declared in nonstandard headers like
+@code{<sunmath.h>} and defined in non-default libraries like
+@option{-lm} or @option{-lsunmath}.
+
+The C99 @code{isinf} and @code{isnan} macros work correctly with
+@code{long double} arguments, but pre-C99 systems that use functions
+typically assume @code{double} arguments.  On such a system,
+@code{isinf} incorrectly returns true for a finite @code{long double}
+argument that is outside the range of @code{double}.
+
+The best workaround for these issues is to use gnulib modules
+@code{isinf} and @code{isnan} (@pxref{Gnulib}).  But a lighter weight
+solution involves code like the following.
+
+@smallexample
+#include <math.h>
+
+#ifndef isnan
+# define isnan(x) \
+    (sizeof (x) == sizeof (long double) ? isnan_ld (x) \
+     : sizeof (x) == sizeof (double) ? isnan_d (x) \
+     : isnan_f (x))
+static inline int isnan_f  (float       x) @{ return x != x; @}
+static inline int isnan_d  (double      x) @{ return x != x; @}
+static inline int isnan_ld (long double x) @{ return x != x; @}
+#endif
+
+#ifndef isinf
+# define isinf(x) \
+    (sizeof (x) == sizeof (long double) ? isinf_ld (x) \
+     : sizeof (x) == sizeof (double) ? isinf_d (x) \
+     : isinf_f (x))
+static inline int isinf_f  (float       x)
+@{ return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); @}
+static inline int isinf_d  (double      x)
+@{ return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); @}
+static inline int isinf_ld (long double x)
+@{ return !isnan (x) && isnan (x - x); @}
+#endif
+@end smallexample
+
+Use @code{AC_C_INLINE} (@pxref{C Compiler}) so that this code works on
+compilers that lack the @code{inline} keyword.  Some optimizing
+compilers mishandle these definitions, but systems with that bug
+typically have many other floating point corner-case compliance problems
+anyway, so it's probably not worth worrying about.
+
+@item @code{malloc}
+@c @fuindex malloc
+@prindex @code{malloc}
+The C standard says a call @code{malloc (0)} is implementation
+dependent.  It can return either @code{NULL} or a new non-null pointer.
+The latter is more common (e.g., the GNU C Library) but is by
+no means universal.  @code{AC_FUNC_MALLOC}
+can be used to insist on non-@code{NULL} (@pxref{Particular Functions}).
+
+@item @code{putenv}
+@c @fuindex putenv
+@prindex @code{putenv}
+Posix prefers @code{setenv} to @code{putenv}; among other things,
+@code{putenv} is not required of all Posix implementations, but
+@code{setenv} is.
+
+Posix specifies that @code{putenv} puts the given string directly in
+@code{environ}, but some systems make a copy of it instead (e.g.,
+glibc 2.0, or BSD).  And when a copy is made, @code{unsetenv} might
+not free it, causing a memory leak (e.g., FreeBSD 4).
+
+On some systems @code{putenv ("FOO")} removes @samp{FOO} from the
+environment, but this is not standard usage and it dumps core
+on some systems (e.g., AIX).
+
+On MinGW, a call @code{putenv ("FOO=")} removes @samp{FOO} from the
+environment, rather than inserting it with an empty value.
+
+@item @code{realloc}
+@c @fuindex realloc
+@prindex @code{realloc}
+The C standard says a call @code{realloc (NULL, size)} is equivalent
+to @code{malloc (size)}, but some old systems don't support this (e.g.,
+NextStep).
+
+@item @code{signal} handler
+@c @fuindex signal
+@prindex @code{signal}
+@prindex @code{sigaction}
+Normally @code{signal} takes a handler function with a return type of
+@code{void}, but some old systems required @code{int} instead.  Any
+actual @code{int} value returned is not used; this is only a
+difference in the function prototype demanded.
+
+All systems we know of in current use return @code{void}.  The
+@code{int} was to support K&R C, where of course @code{void} is not
+available.  The obsolete macro @code{AC_TYPE_SIGNAL}
+(@pxref{AC_TYPE_SIGNAL}) can be used to establish the correct type in
+all cases.
+
+In most cases, it is more robust to use @code{sigaction} when it is
+available, rather than @code{signal}.
+
+@item @code{snprintf}
+@c @fuindex snprintf
+@prindex @code{snprintf}
+@c @fuindex vsnprintf
+@prindex @code{vsnprintf}
+The C99 standard says that if the output array isn't big enough
+and if no other errors occur, @code{snprintf} and @code{vsnprintf}
+truncate the output and return the number of bytes that ought to have
+been produced.  Some older systems return the truncated length (e.g.,
+GNU C Library 2.0.x or IRIX 6.5), some a negative value
+(e.g., earlier GNU C Library versions), and some the buffer
+length without truncation (e.g., 32-bit Solaris 7).  Also, some buggy
+older systems ignore the length and overrun the buffer (e.g., 64-bit
+Solaris 7).
+
+@item @code{sprintf}
+@c @fuindex sprintf
+@prindex @code{sprintf}
+@c @fuindex vsprintf
+@prindex @code{vsprintf}
+The C standard says @code{sprintf} and @code{vsprintf} return the
+number of bytes written.  On some ancient systems (SunOS 4 for
+instance) they return the buffer pointer instead, but these no
+longer need to be worried about.
+
+@item @code{sscanf}
+@c @fuindex sscanf
+@prindex @code{sscanf}
+On various old systems, e.g., HP-UX 9, @code{sscanf} requires
+that its
+input string be writable (though it doesn't actually change it).  This
+can be a problem when using @command{gcc} since it normally puts
+constant strings in read-only memory (@pxref{Incompatibilities,
+Incompatibilities of GCC, , gcc, Using and
+Porting the GNU Compiler Collection}).  Apparently in some cases even
+having format strings read-only can be a problem.
+
+@item @code{strerror_r}
+@c @fuindex strerror_r
+@prindex @code{strerror_r}
+Posix specifies that @code{strerror_r} returns an @code{int}, but many
+systems (e.g., GNU C Library version 2.2.4) provide a
+different version returning a @code{char *}.  @code{AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R}
+can detect which is in use (@pxref{Particular Functions}).
+
+@item @code{strnlen}
+@c @fuindex strnlen
+@prindex @code{strnlen}
+AIX 4.3 provides a broken version which produces the
+following results:
+
+@example
+strnlen ("foobar", 0) = 0
+strnlen ("foobar", 1) = 3
+strnlen ("foobar", 2) = 2
+strnlen ("foobar", 3) = 1
+strnlen ("foobar", 4) = 0
+strnlen ("foobar", 5) = 6
+strnlen ("foobar", 6) = 6
+strnlen ("foobar", 7) = 6
+strnlen ("foobar", 8) = 6
+strnlen ("foobar", 9) = 6
+@end example
+
+@item @code{sysconf}
+@c @fuindex sysconf
+@prindex @code{sysconf}
+@code{_SC_PAGESIZE} is standard, but some older systems (e.g., HP-UX
+9) have @code{_SC_PAGE_SIZE} instead.  This can be tested with
+@code{#ifdef}.
+
+@item @code{unlink}
+@c @fuindex unlink
+@prindex @code{unlink}
+The Posix spec says that @code{unlink} causes the given file to be
+removed only after there are no more open file handles for it.  Some
+non-Posix hosts have trouble with this requirement, though,
+and some DOS variants even corrupt the file system.
+
+@item @code{unsetenv}
+@c @fuindex unsetenv
+@prindex @code{unsetenv}
+On MinGW, @code{unsetenv} is not available, but a variable @samp{FOO}
+can be removed with a call @code{putenv ("FOO=")}, as described under
+@code{putenv} above.
+
+@item @code{va_copy}
+@c @fuindex va_copy
+@prindex @code{va_copy}
+The C99 standard provides @code{va_copy} for copying
+@code{va_list} variables.  It may be available in older environments
+too, though possibly as @code{__va_copy} (e.g., @command{gcc} in strict
+pre-C99 mode).  These can be tested with @code{#ifdef}.  A fallback to
+@code{memcpy (&dst, &src, sizeof (va_list))} gives maximum
+portability.
+
+@item @code{va_list}
+@c @fuindex va_list
+@prindex @code{va_list}
+@code{va_list} is not necessarily just a pointer.  It can be a
+@code{struct} (e.g., @command{gcc} on Alpha), which means @code{NULL} is
+not portable.  Or it can be an array (e.g., @command{gcc} in some
+PowerPC configurations), which means as a function parameter it can be
+effectively call-by-reference and library routines might modify the
+value back in the caller (e.g., @code{vsnprintf} in the GNU C Library
+2.1).
+
+@item Signed @code{>>}
+Normally the C @code{>>} right shift of a signed type replicates the
+high bit, giving a so-called ``arithmetic'' shift.  But care should be
+taken since Standard C doesn't require that behavior.  On those
+few processors without a native arithmetic shift (for instance Cray
+vector systems) zero bits may be shifted in, the same as a shift of an
+unsigned type.
+
+@item Integer @code{/}
+C divides signed integers by truncating their quotient toward zero,
+yielding the same result as Fortran.  However, before C99 the standard
+allowed C implementations to take the floor or ceiling of the quotient
+in some cases.  Hardly any implementations took advantage of this
+freedom, though, and it's probably not worth worrying about this issue
+nowadays.

+it defines @code{HAVE_ALLOCA_H}.
+
+If those attempts fail, it looks for the function in the standard C

+@code{HAVE_ALLOCA}.  Otherwise, it sets the output variable
+@code{ALLOCA} to @samp{$@{LIBOBJDIR@}alloca.o} and defines
+@code{C_ALLOCA} (so programs can periodically call @samp{alloca (0)} to
+garbage collect).  This variable is separate from @code{LIBOBJS} so
+multiple programs can share the value of @code{ALLOCA} without needing

+
+This macro does not try to get @code{alloca} from the System V R3

+should trace @code{AC_LIBSOURCE}.  @var{file} must be a literal.
+
+This macro is called automatically from @code{AC_LIBOBJ}, but you must
+call it explicitly if you pass a shell variable to @code{AC_LIBOBJ}.  In
+that case, since shell variables cannot be traced statically, you must
+pass to @code{AC_LIBSOURCE} any possible files that the shell variable
+might cause @code{AC_LIBOBJ} to need.  For example, if you want to pass

+@code{"foo"} or @code{"bar"}, you should do:
+
+@example
+AC_LIBSOURCE([foo.c])
+AC_LIBSOURCE([bar.c])
+AC_LIBOBJ([$foo_or_bar])
+@end example

+There is usually a way to avoid this, however, and you are encouraged to

+C99 says that @file{limits.h} defines @code{LLONG_MIN},

+@defmac AC_CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL
+@acindex{CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL}
+@cvindex HAVE__BOOL
+@hdrindex{stdbool.h}
+@caindex header_stdbool_h
+Check whether @file{stdbool.h} exists and conforms to C99, and cache the
+result in the @code{ac_cv_header_stdbool_h} variable.  If the type
+@code{_Bool} is defined, define @code{HAVE__BOOL} to 1.
+
+This macro is intended for use by Gnulib (@pxref{Gnulib}) and other
+packages that supply a substitute @file{stdbool.h} on platforms lacking
+a conforming one.  The @code{AC_HEADER_STDBOOL} macro is better for code

+@acindex{HEADER_ASSERT}

+@hdrindex{assert.h}
+Check whether to enable assertions in the style of @file{assert.h}.
+Assertions are enabled by default, but the user can override this by
+invoking @command{configure} with the @option{--disable-assert} option.

+@hdrindex{ndir.h}
+Check for the following header files.  For the first one that is
+found and defines @samp{DIR}, define the listed C preprocessor macro:
+
+@multitable {@file{sys/ndir.h}} {@code{HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H}}
+@item @file{dirent.h}   @tab @code{HAVE_DIRENT_H}
+@item @file{sys/ndir.h} @tab @code{HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H}
+@item @file{sys/dir.h}  @tab @code{HAVE_SYS_DIR_H}
+@item @file{ndir.h}     @tab @code{HAVE_NDIR_H}
+@end multitable
+
+The directory-library declarations in your source code should look
+something like the following:
+
+@example
+@group
+#include <sys/types.h>
+#ifdef HAVE_DIRENT_H
+# include <dirent.h>
+# define NAMLEN(dirent) strlen ((dirent)->d_name)

+#  include <sys/dir.h>
+# endif
+# ifdef HAVE_NDIR_H
+#  include <ndir.h>
+# endif
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Using the above declarations, the program would declare variables to be
+of type @code{struct dirent}, not @code{struct direct}, and would access
+the length of a directory entry name by passing a pointer to a
+@code{struct dirent} to the @code{NAMLEN} macro.
+
+This macro also checks for the SCO Xenix @file{dir} and @file{x} libraries.
+
+This macro is obsolescent, as all current systems with directory
+libraries have @code{<dirent.h>}.  New programs need not use this macro.

+If @file{stdbool.h} exists and conforms to C99, define
+@code{HAVE_STDBOOL_H} to 1; if the type @code{_Bool} is defined, define
+@code{HAVE__BOOL} to 1.  To fulfill the C99 requirements, your
+program could contain the following code:
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H
+# include <stdbool.h>
+#else
+# ifndef HAVE__BOOL
+#  ifdef __cplusplus

+# define bool _Bool
+# define false 0

+# define __bool_true_false_are_defined 1
+#endif
+@end group

+
+Alternatively you can use the @samp{stdbool} package of Gnulib
+(@pxref{Gnulib}).  It simplifies your code so that it can say just
+@code{#include <stdbool.h>}, and it adds support for less-common
+platforms.
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_header_stdbool_h}
+variable.
+
+This macro differs from @code{AC_CHECK_HEADER_STDBOOL} only in that it

+@hdrindex{ctype.h}
+@caindex header_stdc
+Define @code{STDC_HEADERS} if the system has C header files
+conforming to ANSI C89 (ISO C90).
+Specifically, this macro checks for @file{stdlib.h}, @file{stdarg.h},
+@file{string.h}, and @file{float.h}; if the system has those, it
+probably has the rest of the C89 header files.  This macro also
+checks whether @file{string.h} declares @code{memchr} (and thus
+presumably the other @code{mem} functions), whether @file{stdlib.h}
+declare @code{free} (and thus presumably @code{malloc} and other related
+functions), and whether the @file{ctype.h} macros work on characters
+with the high bit set, as the C standard requires.
+
+If you use this macro, your code can refer to @code{STDC_HEADERS} to
+determine whether the system has conforming header files (and probably C
+library functions).
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_header_stdc} variable.
+
+This macro is obsolescent, as current systems have conforming header
+files.  New programs need not use this macro.
+
+@hdrindex{string.h}
+@hdrindex{strings.h}
+Nowadays @file{string.h} is part of the C standard and declares functions like
+@code{strcpy}, and @file{strings.h} is standardized by Posix and declares
+BSD functions like @code{bcopy}; but
+historically, string functions were a major sticking point in this area.
+If you still want to worry about portability to ancient systems without
+standard headers, there is so much variation
+that it is probably easier to declare the functions you use than to
+figure out exactly what the system header files declare.  Some ancient systems
+contained a mix of functions from the C standard and from BSD;
+some were mostly standard but lacked @samp{memmove}; some defined the
+BSD functions as macros in @file{string.h} or
+@file{strings.h}; some had only the BSD functions but
+@file{string.h}; some declared the memory functions in @file{memory.h},
+some in @file{string.h}; etc.  It is probably sufficient to check for
+one string function and one memory function; if the library had the
+standard versions of those then it probably had most of the others.
+If you put the following in @file{configure.ac}:
+
+@example
+# This example is obsolescent.
+# Nowadays you can omit these macro calls.
+AC_HEADER_STDC
+AC_CHECK_FUNCS([strchr memcpy])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+then, in your code, you can use declarations like this:
+
+@example
+@group
+/* This example is obsolescent.
+   Nowadays you can just #include <string.h>.  */
+#ifdef STDC_HEADERS
+# include <string.h>
+#else
+# ifndef HAVE_STRCHR
+#  define strchr index
+#  define strrchr rindex
+# endif
+char *strchr (), *strrchr ();
+# ifndef HAVE_MEMCPY
+#  define memcpy(d, s, n) bcopy ((s), (d), (n))
+#  define memmove(d, s, n) bcopy ((s), (d), (n))
+# endif
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If you use a function like @code{memchr}, @code{memset}, @code{strtok},
+or @code{strspn}, which have no BSD equivalent, then macros don't
+suffice to port to ancient hosts; you must provide an implementation of
+each function.  An easy
+way to incorporate your implementations only when needed (since the ones
+in system C libraries may be hand optimized) is to, taking @code{memchr}
+for example, put it in @file{memchr.c} and use
+@samp{AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([memchr])}.

+@subsection Generic Header Checks
+
+These macros are used to find system header files not covered by the
+``particular'' test macros.  If you need to check the contents of a header
+as well as find out whether it is present, you have to write your own
+test for it (@pxref{Writing Tests}).
+
+@anchor{AC_CHECK_HEADER}

+  @ovar{action-if-not-found}, @ovar{includes})
+@acindex{CHECK_HEADER}
+@caindex header_@var{header-file}
+If the system header file @var{header-file} is compilable, execute shell
+commands @var{action-if-found}, otherwise execute
+@var{action-if-not-found}.  If you just want to define a symbol if the
+header file is available, consider using @code{AC_CHECK_HEADERS}
+instead.
+
+@var{includes} is decoded to determine the appropriate include
+directives.  If omitted or empty, @file{configure} will check for both header
+existence (with the preprocessor) and usability (with the compiler),
+using @code{AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT} for the compile test.  If
+there is a discrepancy between the results, a warning is issued to the
+user, and the compiler results are favored (@pxref{Present But
+Cannot Be Compiled}).  In general, favoring the compiler results means
+that a header will be treated as not found even though the file exists,
+because you did not provide enough prerequisites.
+
+Providing a non-empty @var{includes} argument allows the code to provide
+any prerequisites prior to including the header under test; it is common
+to use the argument @code{AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT} (@pxref{Default
+Includes}).  With an explicit fourth argument, no preprocessor test is
+needed.  As a special case, an @var{includes} of exactly @samp{-}
+triggers the older preprocessor check, which merely determines existence
+of the file in the preprocessor search path; this should only be used as
+a last resort (it is safer to determine the actual prerequisites and
+perform a compiler check, or else use @code{AC_PREPROC_IFELSE} to make
+it obvious that only a preprocessor check is desired).
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_header_@var{header-file}}
+variable, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped to
+underscores.

+files is found.  You can give it a value of @samp{break} to break out of
+the loop on the first match.  If @var{action-if-not-found} is given, it
+is executed when one of the header files is not found.
+
+@var{includes} is interpreted as in @code{AC_CHECK_HEADER}, in order to
+choose the set of preprocessor directives supplied before the header
+under test.
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_header_@var{header-file}}

+
+Previous versions of Autoconf merely checked whether the header was
+accepted by the preprocessor.  This was changed because the old test was
+inappropriate for typical uses.  Headers are typically used to compile,
+not merely to preprocess, and the old behavior sometimes accepted
+headers that clashed at compile-time (@pxref{Present But Cannot Be
+Compiled}).  If you need to check whether a header is preprocessable,
+you can use @code{AC_PREPROC_IFELSE} (@pxref{Running the Preprocessor}).
+
+Actually requiring a header to compile improves the robustness of the
+test, but it also requires
+that you make sure that headers that must be included before the
+@var{header-file} be part of the @var{includes}, (@pxref{Default
+Includes}).  If looking for @file{bar.h}, which requires that
+@file{foo.h} be included before if it exists, we suggest the following
+scheme:
+
+@verbatim
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([foo.h])
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([bar.h], [], [],
+[#ifdef HAVE_FOO_H
+# include <foo.h>
+#endif
+])

+@code{HAVE_@var{header-file}} (in all capitals).
+This is a once-only variant of @code{AC_CHECK_HEADERS}.  It generates the
+checking code at most once, so that @command{configure} is smaller and
+faster; but the checks cannot be conditionalized and are always done once,
+early during the @command{configure} run.  Thus, this macro is only safe
+for checking headers that do not have prerequisites beyond what

+@subsection Generic Declaration Checks
+
+These macros are used to find declarations not covered by the ``particular''
+test macros.
+
+@defmac AC_CHECK_DECL (@var{symbol}, @ovar{action-if-found}, @
+  @ovar{action-if-not-found}, @dvar{includes, AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT})
+@acindex{CHECK_DECL}
+@caindex have_decl_@var{symbol}
+If @var{symbol} (a function, variable, or constant) is not declared in
+@var{includes} and a declaration is needed, run the shell commands
+@var{action-if-not-found}, otherwise @var{action-if-found}.
+@var{includes} is a series of include directives, defaulting to
+@code{AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT} (@pxref{Default Includes}), which are used
+prior to the declaration under test.
+
+This macro actually tests whether @var{symbol} is defined as a macro or
+can be used as an r-value, not whether it is really declared, because it
+is much safer to avoid introducing extra declarations when they are not
+needed.  In order to facilitate use of C++ and overloaded function
+declarations, it is possible to specify function argument types in
+parentheses for types which can be zero-initialized:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_DECL([basename(char *)])
+@end example
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_have_decl_@var{symbol}}
+variable, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped to
+underscores.

+@acindex{CHECK_DECLS}
+@cvindex HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}
+@caindex have_decl_@var{symbol}
+For each of the @var{symbols} (@emph{comma}-separated list with optional
+function argument types for C++ overloads), define
+@code{HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}} (in all capitals) to @samp{1} if
+@var{symbol} is declared, otherwise to @samp{0}.  If
+@var{action-if-not-found} is given, it is additional shell code to
+execute when one of the function declarations is needed, otherwise
+@var{action-if-found} is executed.
+
+@var{includes} is a series of include directives, defaulting to
+@code{AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT} (@pxref{Default Includes}), which are used
+prior to the declarations under test.
+
+This macro uses an M4 list as first argument:
+@example
+AC_CHECK_DECLS([strdup])
+AC_CHECK_DECLS([strlen])
+AC_CHECK_DECLS([malloc, realloc, calloc, free])
+AC_CHECK_DECLS([j0], [], [], [[#include <math.h>]])
+AC_CHECK_DECLS([[basename(char *)], [dirname(char *)]])
+@end example
+
+Unlike the other @samp{AC_CHECK_*S} macros, when a @var{symbol} is not
+declared, @code{HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}} is defined to @samp{0} instead
+of leaving @code{HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}} undeclared.  When you are
+@emph{sure} that the check was performed, use
+@code{HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}} in @code{#if}:
+
+@example
+#if !HAVE_DECL_SYMBOL
+extern char *symbol;
+#endif
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If the test may have not been performed, however, because it is safer
+@emph{not} to declare a symbol than to use a declaration that conflicts
+with the system's one, you should use:
+
+@example
+#if defined HAVE_DECL_MALLOC && !HAVE_DECL_MALLOC
+void *malloc (size_t *s);
+#endif
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You fall into the second category only in extreme situations: either
+your files may be used without being configured, or they are used during
+the configuration.  In most cases the traditional approach is enough.
+
+This macro caches its results in @code{ac_cv_have_decl_@var{symbol}}
+variables, with characters not suitable for a variable name mapped to
+underscores.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE (@var{symbols})
+@acindex{CHECK_DECLS_ONCE}
+@cvindex HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}
+For each of the @var{symbols} (@emph{comma}-separated list), define
+@code{HAVE_DECL_@var{symbol}} (in all capitals) to @samp{1} if
+@var{symbol} is declared in the default include files, otherwise to
+@samp{0}.  This is a once-only variant of @code{AC_CHECK_DECLS}.  It
+generates the checking code at most once, so that @command{configure} is
+smaller and faster; but the checks cannot be conditionalized and are
+always done once, early during the @command{configure} run.

+All the tests for compilers (@code{AC_PROG_CC}, @code{AC_PROG_CXX},

+They also define the output variable @code{OBJEXT} based on the

+Some compilers exhibit different behaviors.
+
+@table @asis
+@item Static/Dynamic Expressions
+Autoconf relies on a trick to extract one bit of information from the C
+compiler: using negative array sizes.  For instance the following
+excerpt of a C source demonstrates how to test whether @samp{int} objects are 4
+bytes wide:
+
+@example
+static int test_array[sizeof (int) == 4 ? 1 : -1];
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+To our knowledge, there is a single compiler that does not support this
+trick: the HP C compilers (the real ones, not only the
+``bundled'') on HP-UX 11.00.
+They incorrectly reject the above program with the diagnostic
+``Variable-length arrays cannot have static storage.''
+This bug comes from HP compilers' mishandling of @code{sizeof (int)},
+not from the @code{? 1 : -1}, and
+Autoconf works around this problem by casting @code{sizeof (int)} to
+@code{long int} before comparing it.

+@uref{http://@/www.openmp.org/, OpenMP} specifies extensions of C, C++,
+and Fortran that simplify optimization of shared memory parallelism,
+which is a common problem on multicore CPUs.
+
+If the current language is C, the macro @code{AC_OPENMP} sets the
+variable @code{OPENMP_CFLAGS} to the C compiler flags needed for
+supporting OpenMP@.  @code{OPENMP_CFLAGS} is set to empty if the
+compiler already supports OpenMP, if it has no way to activate OpenMP
+support, or if the user rejects OpenMP support by invoking
+@samp{configure} with the @samp{--disable-openmp} option.
+
+@code{OPENMP_CFLAGS} needs to be used when compiling programs, when
+preprocessing program source, and when linking programs.  Therefore you
+need to add @code{$(OPENMP_CFLAGS)} to the @code{CFLAGS} of C programs
+that use OpenMP@.  If you preprocess OpenMP-specific C code, you also
+need to add @code{$(OPENMP_CFLAGS)} to @code{CPPFLAGS}.  The presence of
+OpenMP support is revealed at compile time by the preprocessor macro
+@code{_OPENMP}.
+
+Linking a program with @code{OPENMP_CFLAGS} typically adds one more
+shared library to the program's dependencies, so its use is recommended
+only on programs that actually require OpenMP.
+
+If the current language is C++, @code{AC_OPENMP} sets the variable
+@code{OPENMP_CXXFLAGS}, suitably for the C++ compiler.  The same remarks
+hold as for C.
+
+If the current language is Fortran 77 or Fortran, @code{AC_OPENMP} sets
+the variable @code{OPENMP_FFLAGS} or @code{OPENMP_FCFLAGS},
+respectively.  Similar remarks as for C hold, except that
+@code{CPPFLAGS} is not used for Fortran, and no preprocessor macro
+signals OpenMP support.
+
+For portability, it is best to avoid spaces between @samp{#} and
+@samp{pragma omp}.  That is, write @samp{#pragma omp}, not
+@samp{# pragma omp}.  The Sun WorkShop 6.2 C compiler chokes on the
+latter.

+
+@node C Compiler
+@subsection C Compiler Characteristics
+
+The following macros provide ways to find and exercise a C Compiler.
+There are a few constructs that ought to be avoided, but do not deserve
+being checked for, since they can easily be worked around.
+
+@table @asis
+@item Don't use lines containing solitary backslashes
+They tickle a bug in the HP-UX C compiler (checked on
+HP-UX 10.20,
+11.00, and 11i).  When given the following source:
+
+@example
+#ifdef __STDC__
+/\
+* A comment with backslash-newlines in it.  %@{ %@} *\
+\
+/
+char str[] = "\\
+" A string with backslash-newlines in it %@{ %@} \\
+"";
+char apostrophe = '\\
+\
+'\
+';
+#endif
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+the compiler incorrectly fails with the diagnostics ``Non-terminating
+comment at end of file'' and ``Missing @samp{#endif} at end of file.''
+Removing the lines with solitary backslashes solves the problem.
+
+@item Don't compile several files at once if output matters to you
+Some compilers, such as HP's, report names of files being
+compiled when given more than one file operand.  For instance:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cc a.c b.c}
+a.c:
+b.c:
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This can cause problems if you observe the output of the compiler to
+detect failures.  Invoking @samp{cc -c a.c && cc -c b.c && cc -o c a.o
+b.o} solves the issue.
+
+@item Don't rely on @code{#error} failing
+The IRIX C compiler does not fail when #error is preprocessed; it
+simply emits a diagnostic and continues, exiting successfully.  So,
+instead of an error directive like @code{#error "Unsupported word size"}
+it is more portable to use an invalid directive like @code{#Unsupported
+word size} in Autoconf tests.  In ordinary source code, @code{#error} is
+OK, since installers with inadequate compilers like IRIX can simply
+examine these compilers' diagnostic output.
+
+@item Don't rely on correct @code{#line} support
+On Solaris, @command{c89} (at least Sun C 5.3 through 5.8)
+diagnoses @code{#line} directives whose line
+numbers are greater than 32767.  Nothing in Posix
+makes this invalid.  That is why Autoconf stopped issuing
+@code{#line} directives.
+@end table
+
+@defmac AC_PROG_CC (@ovar{compiler-search-list})
+@acindex{PROG_CC}
+@evindex CC
+@evindex CFLAGS
+@ovindex CC
+@ovindex CFLAGS
+@caindex prog_cc_c89
+Determine a C compiler to use.  If @code{CC} is not already set in the
+environment, check for @code{gcc} and @code{cc}, then for other C
+compilers.  Set output variable @code{CC} to the name of the compiler
+found.
+
+This macro may, however, be invoked with an optional first argument
+which, if specified, must be a blank-separated list of C compilers to
+search for.  This just gives the user an opportunity to specify an
+alternative search list for the C compiler.  For example, if you didn't
+like the default order, then you could invoke @code{AC_PROG_CC} like
+this:
+
+@example
+AC_PROG_CC([gcc cl cc])
+@end example
+
+If the C compiler does not handle function prototypes correctly by
+default, try to add an option to output variable @code{CC} to make it
+so.  This macro tries various options that select standard-conformance
+modes on various systems.
+
+After calling this macro you can check whether the C compiler has been
+set to accept ANSI C89 (ISO C90); if not, the shell
+variable
+@code{ac_cv_prog_cc_c89} is set to @samp{no}.  See also
+@code{AC_C_PROTOTYPES} below.
+
+If using the GNU C compiler, set shell variable @code{GCC} to
+@samp{yes}.  If output variable @code{CFLAGS} was not already set, set
+it to @option{-g -O2} for the GNU C compiler (@option{-O2} on systems
+where GCC does not accept @option{-g}), or @option{-g} for
+other compilers.  If your package does not like this default, then it is
+acceptable to insert the line @samp{: $@{CFLAGS=""@}} after @code{AC_INIT}
+and before @code{AC_PROG_CC} to select an empty default instead.
+
+Many Autoconf macros use a compiler, and thus call
+@samp{AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])} to ensure that the compiler has been
+determined before the body of the outermost @code{AC_DEFUN} macro.
+Although @code{AC_PROG_CC} is safe to directly expand multiple times, it
+performs certain checks (such as the proper value of @env{EXEEXT}) only
+on the first invocation.  Therefore, care must be used when invoking
+this macro from within another macro rather than at the top level
+(@pxref{Expanded Before Required}).

+@evindex CPP
+@ovindex CPP
+Set output variable @code{CPP} to a command that runs the
+C preprocessor.  If @samp{$CC -E} doesn't work, @file{/lib/cpp} is used.
+It is only portable to run @code{CPP} on files with a @file{.c}
+extension.
+
+Some preprocessors don't indicate missing include files by the error
+status.  For such preprocessors an internal variable is set that causes
+other macros to check the standard error from the preprocessor and
+consider the test failed if any warnings have been reported.
+For most preprocessors, though, warnings do not cause include-file
+tests to fail unless @code{AC_PROG_CPP_WERROR} is also specified.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_PROG_CPP_WERROR
+@acindex{PROG_CPP_WERROR}

+@acindex{C_BIGENDIAN}
+@cvindex WORDS_BIGENDIAN
+@cindex Endianness
+If words are stored with the most significant byte first (like Motorola
+and SPARC CPUs), execute @var{action-if-true}.  If words are stored with
+the least significant byte first (like Intel and VAX CPUs), execute
+@var{action-if-false}.
+
+This macro runs a test-case if endianness cannot be determined from the
+system header files.  When cross-compiling, the test-case is not run but
+grep'ed for some magic values.  @var{action-if-unknown} is executed if
+the latter case fails to determine the byte sex of the host system.
+
+In some cases a single run of a compiler can generate code for multiple
+architectures.  This can happen, for example, when generating Mac OS X
+universal binary files, which work on both PowerPC and Intel
+architectures.  In this case, the different variants might be for
+different architectures whose endiannesses differ.  If
+@command{configure} detects this, it executes @var{action-if-universal}
+instead of @var{action-if-unknown}.
+
+The default for @var{action-if-true} is to define
+@samp{WORDS_BIGENDIAN}.  The default for @var{action-if-false} is to do
+nothing.  The default for @var{action-if-unknown} is to
+abort configure and tell the installer how to bypass this test.
+And finally, the default for @var{action-if-universal} is to ensure that
+@samp{WORDS_BIGENDIAN} is defined if and only if a universal build is
+detected and the current code is big-endian; this default works only if
+@command{autoheader} is used (@pxref{autoheader Invocation}).
+
+If you use this macro without specifying @var{action-if-universal}, you
+should also use @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}; otherwise
+@samp{WORDS_BIGENDIAN} may be set incorrectly for Mac OS X universal
+binary files.

+@anchor{AC_C_CONST}
+@defmac AC_C_CONST
+@acindex{C_CONST}
+@cvindex const
+@caindex c_const
+If the C compiler does not fully support the @code{const} keyword,
+define @code{const} to be empty.  Some C compilers that do
+not define @code{__STDC__} do support @code{const}; some compilers that
+define @code{__STDC__} do not completely support @code{const}.  Programs
+can simply use @code{const} as if every C compiler supported it; for
+those that don't, the makefile or configuration header file
+defines it as empty.
+
+Occasionally installers use a C++ compiler to compile C code, typically
+because they lack a C compiler.  This causes problems with @code{const},
+because C and C++ treat @code{const} differently.  For example:
+
+@example
+const int foo;
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+is valid in C but not in C++.  These differences unfortunately cannot be
+papered over by defining @code{const} to be empty.
+
+If @command{autoconf} detects this situation, it leaves @code{const} alone,
+as this generally yields better results in practice.  However, using a
+C++ compiler to compile C code is not recommended or supported, and
+installers who run into trouble in this area should get a C compiler
+like GCC to compile their C code.
+
+This macro caches its result in the @code{ac_cv_c_const} variable.

+If the C compiler recognizes a variant spelling for the @code{restrict}
+keyword (@code{__restrict}, @code{__restrict__}, or @code{_Restrict}),
+then define @code{restrict} to that; this is more likely to do the right
+thing with compilers that support language variants where plain
+@code{restrict} is not a keyword.  Otherwise, if the C compiler
+recognizes the @code{restrict} keyword, don't do anything.
+Otherwise, define @code{restrict} to be empty.
+Thus, programs may simply use @code{restrict} as if every C compiler
+supported it; for those that do not, the makefile
+or configuration header defines it away.
+
+Although support in C++ for the @code{restrict} keyword is not
+required, several C++ compilers do accept the keyword.
+This macro works for them, too.
+
+This macro caches @samp{no} in the @code{ac_cv_c_restrict} variable
+if @code{restrict} is not supported, and a supported spelling otherwise.

+
+@defmac AC_C_VOLATILE
+@acindex{C_VOLATILE}

+If the C compiler does not understand the keyword @code{volatile},
+define @code{volatile} to be empty.  Programs can simply use
+@code{volatile} as if every C compiler supported it; for those that do
+not, the makefile or configuration header defines it as
+empty.
+
+If the correctness of your program depends on the semantics of
+@code{volatile}, simply defining it to be empty does, in a sense, break
+your code.  However, given that the compiler does not support
+@code{volatile}, you are at its mercy anyway.  At least your
+program compiles, when it wouldn't before.
+@xref{Volatile Objects}, for more about @code{volatile}.
+
+In general, the @code{volatile} keyword is a standard C feature, so
+you might expect that @code{volatile} is available only when
+@code{__STDC__} is defined.  However, Ultrix 4.3's native compiler does

+
+The Autoconf Fortran support is divided into two categories: legacy
+Fortran 77 macros (@code{F77}), and modern Fortran macros (@code{FC}).
+The former are intended for traditional Fortran 77 code, and have output
+variables like @code{F77}, @code{FFLAGS}, and @code{FLIBS}.  The latter
+are for newer programs that can (or must) compile under the newer
+Fortran standards, and have output variables like @code{FC},
+@code{FCFLAGS}, and @code{FCLIBS}.
+
+Except for the macros @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT}, @code{AC_FC_FREEFORM},
+@code{AC_FC_FIXEDFORM}, and @code{AC_FC_LINE_LENGTH} (see below), the
+@code{FC} and @code{F77} macros behave almost identically, and so they
+are documented together in this section.

+
+By default, newer dialects are preferred over older dialects, but if

+and no attempt is made to guarantee that a particular language standard

+Determine the linker flags (e.g., @option{-L} and @option{-l}) for the

+successfully link a Fortran program or shared library.  The output
+variable @code{FLIBS} or @code{FCLIBS} is set to these flags (which
+should be included after @code{LIBS} when linking).
+
+This macro is intended to be used in those situations when it is
+necessary to mix, e.g., C++ and Fortran source code in a single
+program or shared library (@pxref{Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++, , ,
+automake, GNU Automake}).
+
+For example, if object files from a C++ and Fortran compiler must be
+linked together, then the C++ compiler/linker must be used for linking
+(since special C++-ish things need to happen at link time like calling
+global constructors, instantiating templates, enabling exception
+support, etc.).
+
+However, the Fortran intrinsic and runtime libraries must be linked in
+as well, but the C++ compiler/linker doesn't know by default how to add
+these Fortran 77 libraries.  Hence, this macro was created to determine
+these Fortran libraries.
+
+The macros @code{AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN} and @code{AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN} or
+@code{AC_F77_MAIN} and @code{AC_FC_MAIN} are probably also necessary to
+link C/C++ with Fortran; see below.  Further, it is highly recommended
+that you use @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} (@pxref{Configuration Headers})
+because the complex defines that the function wrapper macros create
+may not work with C/C++ compiler drivers.
+
+These macros internally compute the flag needed to verbose linking
+output and cache it in @code{ac_cv_prog_f77_v} or @code{ac_cv_prog_fc_v}
+variables, respectively.  The computed linker flags are cached in
+@code{ac_cv_f77_libs} or @code{ac_cv_fc_libs}, respectively.

+With many compilers, the Fortran libraries detected by
+@code{AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS} or @code{AC_FC_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS} provide
+their own @code{main} entry function that initializes things like
+Fortran I/O, and which then calls a user-provided entry function named
+(say) @code{MAIN__} to run the user's program.  The
+@code{AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN} and @code{AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN} or
+@code{AC_F77_MAIN} and @code{AC_FC_MAIN} macros figure out how to deal with
+this interaction.
+
+When using Fortran for purely numerical functions (no I/O, etc.)@: often
+one prefers to provide one's own @code{main} and skip the Fortran
+library initializations.  In this case, however, one may still need to
+provide a dummy @code{MAIN__} routine in order to prevent linking errors
+on some systems.  @code{AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN} or @code{AC_FC_DUMMY_MAIN}
+detects whether any such routine is @emph{required} for linking, and
+what its name is; the shell variable @code{F77_DUMMY_MAIN} or
+@code{FC_DUMMY_MAIN} holds this name, @code{unknown} when no solution
+was found, and @code{none} when no such dummy main is needed.
+
+By default, @var{action-if-found} defines @code{F77_DUMMY_MAIN} or
+@code{FC_DUMMY_MAIN} to the name of this routine (e.g., @code{MAIN__})
+@emph{if} it is required.  @var{action-if-not-found} defaults to
+exiting with an error.
+
+In order to link with Fortran routines, the user's C/C++ program should
+then include the following code to define the dummy main if it is
+needed:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/fortran.at:AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN usage.
+#ifdef F77_DUMMY_MAIN
+#  ifdef __cplusplus
+     extern "C"
+#  endif
+   int F77_DUMMY_MAIN () @{ return 1; @}
+#endif
+@end example
+
+(Replace @code{F77} with @code{FC} for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)
+
+Note that this macro is called automatically from @code{AC_F77_WRAPPERS}
+or @code{AC_FC_WRAPPERS}; there is generally no need to call it
+explicitly unless one wants to change the default actions.
+
+The result of this macro is cached in the @code{ac_cv_f77_dummy_main} or
+@code{ac_cv_fc_dummy_main} variable, respectively.

+@cvindex F77_MAIN
+@acindex{FC_MAIN}
+@cvindex FC_MAIN
+@caindex f77_main
+@caindex fc_main
+As discussed above, many Fortran libraries allow you to provide an entry
+point called (say) @code{MAIN__} instead of the usual @code{main}, which
+is then called by a @code{main} function in the Fortran libraries that
+initializes things like Fortran I/O@.  The
+@code{AC_F77_MAIN} and @code{AC_FC_MAIN} macros detect whether it is
+@emph{possible} to utilize such an alternate main function, and defines
+@code{F77_MAIN} and @code{FC_MAIN} to the name of the function.  (If no
+alternate main function name is found, @code{F77_MAIN} and @code{FC_MAIN} are
+simply defined to @code{main}.)
+
+Thus, when calling Fortran routines from C that perform things like I/O,
+one should use this macro and declare the "main" function like so:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/fortran.at:AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN usage.
+#ifdef __cplusplus
+  extern "C"
+#endif
+int F77_MAIN (int argc, char *argv[]);
+@end example
+
+(Again, replace @code{F77} with @code{FC} for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)

+mangle the names of C/C++ identifiers, and identifiers with underscores,
+respectively, so that they match the name-mangling scheme used by the
+Fortran compiler.
+
+Fortran is case-insensitive, and in order to achieve this the Fortran
+compiler converts all identifiers into a canonical case and format.  To
+call a Fortran subroutine from C or to write a C function that is
+callable from Fortran, the C program must explicitly use identifiers in
+the format expected by the Fortran compiler.  In order to do this, one
+simply wraps all C identifiers in one of the macros provided by
+@code{AC_F77_WRAPPERS} or @code{AC_FC_WRAPPERS}.  For example, suppose
+you have the following Fortran 77 subroutine:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/fortran.at:AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN usage.
+      subroutine foobar (x, y)
+      double precision x, y
+      y = 3.14159 * x
+      return
+      end
+@end example
+
+You would then declare its prototype in C or C++ as:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/fortran.at:AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN usage.
+#define FOOBAR_F77 F77_FUNC (foobar, FOOBAR)
+#ifdef __cplusplus
+extern "C"  /* prevent C++ name mangling */
+#endif
+void FOOBAR_F77 (double *x, double *y);
+@end example
+
+Note that we pass both the lowercase and uppercase versions of the
+function name to @code{F77_FUNC} so that it can select the right one.
+Note also that all parameters to Fortran 77 routines are passed as
+pointers (@pxref{Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++, , , automake, GNU

+
+(Replace @code{F77} with @code{FC} for Fortran instead of Fortran 77.)
+
+Although Autoconf tries to be intelligent about detecting the
+name-mangling scheme of the Fortran compiler, there may be Fortran
+compilers that it doesn't support yet.  In this case, the above code
+generates a compile-time error, but some other behavior
+(e.g., disabling Fortran-related features) can be induced by checking
+whether @code{F77_FUNC} or @code{FC_FUNC} is defined.
+
+Now, to call that routine from a C program, we would do something like:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/fortran.at:AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN usage.
+@{
+    double x = 2.7183, y;
+    FOOBAR_F77 (&x, &y);
+@}
+@end example
+
+If the Fortran identifier contains an underscore (e.g., @code{foo_bar}),
+you should use @code{F77_FUNC_} or @code{FC_FUNC_} instead of
+@code{F77_FUNC} or @code{FC_FUNC} (with the same arguments).  This is
+because some Fortran compilers mangle names differently if they contain
+an underscore.
+
+The name mangling scheme is encoded in the @code{ac_cv_f77_mangling} or
+@code{ac_cv_fc_mangling} cache variable, respectively, and also used for
+the @code{AC_F77_FUNC} and @code{AC_FC_FUNC} macros described below.

+By default, the @code{FC} macros perform their tests using a @file{.f}
+extension for source-code files.  Some compilers, however, only enable
+newer language features for appropriately named files, e.g., Fortran 90
+features only for @file{.f90} files, or preprocessing only with
+@file{.F} files or maybe other upper-case extensions.  On the other
+hand, some other compilers expect all source files to end in @file{.f}
+and require special flags to support other file name extensions.  The
+@code{AC_FC_SRCEXT} and @code{AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT} macros deal with these
+issues.
+
+The @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT} macro tries to get the @code{FC} compiler to
+accept files ending with the extension @file{.@var{ext}} (i.e.,
+@var{ext} does @emph{not} contain the dot).  If any special compiler
+flags are needed for this, it stores them in the output variable
+@code{FCFLAGS_@var{ext}}.  This extension and these flags are then used
+for all subsequent @code{FC} tests (until @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT} or
+@code{AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT} is called another time).
+
+For example, you would use @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT(f90)} to employ the
+@file{.f90} extension in future tests, and it would set the
+@code{FCFLAGS_f90} output variable with any extra flags that are needed
+to compile such files.
+
+Similarly, the @code{AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT} macro tries to get the @code{FC}
+compiler to preprocess and compile files with the extension
+@file{.@var{ext}}.  When both @command{fpp} and @command{cpp} style
+preprocessing are provided, the former is preferred, as the latter may
+treat continuation lines, @code{//} tokens, and white space differently
+from what some Fortran dialects expect.  Conversely, if you do not want
+files to be preprocessed, use only lower-case characters in the file
+name extension.  Like with @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT(f90)}, any needed flags
+are stored in the @code{FCFLAGS_@var{ext}} variable.
+
+The @code{FCFLAGS_@var{ext}} flags can @emph{not} be simply absorbed
+into @code{FCFLAGS}, for two reasons based on the limitations of some
+compilers.  First, only one @code{FCFLAGS_@var{ext}} can be used at a
+time, so files with different extensions must be compiled separately.
+Second, @code{FCFLAGS_@var{ext}} must appear @emph{immediately} before
+the source-code file name when compiling.  So, continuing the example
+above, you might compile a @file{foo.f90} file in your makefile with the
+command:
+
+@example
+foo.o: foo.f90
+       $(FC) -c $(FCFLAGS) $(FCFLAGS_f90) '$(srcdir)/foo.f90'
+@end example
+
+If @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT} or @code{AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT} succeeds in compiling
+files with the @var{ext} extension, it calls @var{action-if-success}
+(defaults to nothing).  If it fails, and cannot find a way to make the
+@code{FC} compiler accept such files, it calls @var{action-if-failure}
+(defaults to exiting with an error message).
+
+The @code{AC_FC_SRCEXT} and @code{AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT} macros cache their
+results in @code{ac_cv_fc_srcext_@var{ext}} and
+@code{ac_cv_fc_pp_srcext_@var{ext}} variables, respectively.

+
+This macro is most important if you are using the default @file{.f}
+extension, since many compilers interpret this extension as indicating
+fixed-format source unless an additional flag is supplied.  If you

+the compiler assume Fortran 77 by default, however.
+
+If @code{AC_FC_FREEFORM} succeeds in compiling free-form source, it

+@defmac AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION
+@acindex{FC_MODULE_EXTENSION}
+@caindex fc_module_ext

+
+Find the Fortran 90 module file name extension.  Most Fortran 90
+compilers store module information in files separate from the object
+files.  The module files are usually named after the name of the module
+rather than the source file name, with characters possibly turned to
+upper case, plus an extension, often @file{.mod}.
+
+Not all compilers use module files at all, or by default.  The Cray
+Fortran compiler requires @option{-e m} in order to store and search
+module information in @file{.mod} files rather than in object files.
+Likewise, the Fujitsu Fortran compilers uses the @option{-Am} option to
+indicate how module information is stored.
+
+The @code{AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION} macro computes the module extension
+without the leading dot, and stores that in the @code{FC_MODEXT}
+variable.  If the compiler does not produce module files, or the
+extension cannot be determined, @code{FC_MODEXT} is empty.  Typically,
+the result of this macro may be used in cleanup @command{make} rules as
+follows:
+
+@example

+        -test -z "$(FC_MODEXT)" || rm -f *.$(FC_MODEXT)

+set @code{FC_MODINC} to empty and call @var{action-if-failure} (defaults

+
+Most Fortran 90 compilers provide a way to specify module directories.
+Some have separate flags for the directory to write module files to,
+and directories to search them in, whereas others only allow writing to
+the current directory or to the first directory specified in the include
+path.  Further, with some compilers, the module search path and the
+preprocessor search path can only be modified with the same flag.  Thus,
+for portability, write module files to the current directory only and
+list that as first directory in the search path.
+
+There may be no whitespace between @code{FC_MODINC} and the following
+directory name, but @code{FC_MODINC} may contain trailing white space.
+For example, if you use Automake and would like to search @file{../lib}
+for module files, you can use the following:
+
+@example
+AM_FCFLAGS = $(FC_MODINC). $(FC_MODINC)../lib

+
+The flag is cached in the @code{ac_cv_fc_module_flag} variable.

+Not all Fortran 90 compilers write module files, and of those that do,
+not all allow writing to a directory other than the current one, nor
+do all have separate flags for writing and reading; see the description
+of @code{AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG} above.  If you need to be able to write to

+Test whether the Erlang/OTP library @var{library} is installed by
+calling Erlang's @code{code:lib_dir/1} function.  The result of this
+test is cached if caching is enabled when running @command{configure}.
+@var{action-if-found} is a list of shell commands to run if the library
+is installed; @var{action-if-not-found} is a list of shell commands to
+run if it is not.  Additionally, if the library is installed, the output
+variable @samp{ERLANG_LIB_DIR_@var{library}} is set to the path to the
+library installation directory, and the output variable
+@samp{ERLANG_LIB_VER_@var{library}} is set to the version number that is
+part of the subdirectory name, if it is in the standard form
+(@code{@var{library}-@var{version}}).  If the directory name does not
+have a version part, @samp{ERLANG_LIB_VER_@var{library}} is set to the
+empty string.  If the library is not installed,
+@samp{ERLANG_LIB_DIR_@var{library}} and
+@samp{ERLANG_LIB_VER_@var{library}} are set to @code{"not found"}.  For
+example, to check if library @code{stdlib} is installed:
+
+@example
+AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB([stdlib],
+  [echo "stdlib version \"$ERLANG_LIB_VER_stdlib\""
+   echo "is installed in \"$ERLANG_LIB_DIR_stdlib\""],
+  [AC_MSG_ERROR([stdlib was not found!])])
+@end example
+
+The @samp{ERLANG_LIB_VER_@var{library}} variables (set by
+@code{AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB}) and the @code{ERLANG_ERTS_VER} variable (set
+by @code{AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER}) are not intended to be used for
+testing for features of specific versions of libraries or of the Erlang
+runtime system.  Those variables are intended to be substituted in
+Erlang release resource files (@code{.rel} files).  For instance, to
+generate a @file{example.rel} file for an application depending on the
+@code{stdlib} library, @file{configure.ac} could contain:
+
+@example
+AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ERTS_VER
+AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB([stdlib],
+  [],
+  [AC_MSG_ERROR([stdlib was not found!])])
+AC_CONFIG_FILES([example.rel])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The @file{example.rel.in} file used to generate @file{example.rel}
+should contain:
+
+@example
+@{release,
+    @{"@@PACKAGE@@", "@@VERSION@@"@},
+    @{erts, "@@ERLANG_ERTS_VER@@"@},

+@acindex{ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR}
+@ovindex ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR
+
+Set the @code{ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR} output variable to the directory into
+which every built Erlang library should be installed in a separate
+subdirectory.

+@chapter Writing Tests
+
+If the existing feature tests don't do something you need, you have to
+write new ones.  These macros are the building blocks.  They provide
+ways for other macros to check whether various kinds of features are
+available and report the results.
+
+This chapter contains some suggestions and some of the reasons why the
+existing tests are written the way they are.  You can also learn a lot
+about how to write Autoconf tests by looking at the existing ones.  If
+something goes wrong in one or more of the Autoconf tests, this
+information can help you understand the assumptions behind them, which
+might help you figure out how to best solve the problem.
+
+These macros check the output of the compiler system of the current
+language (@pxref{Language Choice}).  They do not cache the results of
+their tests for future use (@pxref{Caching Results}), because they don't
+know enough about the information they are checking for to generate a
+cache variable name.  They also do not print any messages, for the same
+reason.  The checks for particular kinds of features call these macros
+and do cache their results and print messages about what they're
+checking for.
+
+When you write a feature test that could be applicable to more than one
+software package, the best thing to do is encapsulate it in a new macro.
+@xref{Writing Autoconf Macros}, for how to do that.

+may produce incorrect results at runtime.}, the macros
+@code{AC_LANG_PUSH} and @code{AC_LANG_POP} cannot be ``optimizing'',
+therefore as much as possible you ought to avoid using them to wrap
+your code, rather, require from the user to run the macro with a

+@node Writing Test Programs
+@section Writing Test Programs

+Autoconf tests follow a common scheme: feed some program with some

+This section is dedicated to these source samples.

+@end menu
+
+@node Guidelines
+@subsection Guidelines for Test Programs
+
+The most important rule to follow when writing testing samples is:
+
+@center @emph{Look for realism.}
+
+This motto means that testing samples must be written with the same
+strictness as real programs are written.  In particular, you should
+avoid ``shortcuts'' and simplifications.
+
+Don't just play with the preprocessor if you want to prepare a
+compilation.  For instance, using @command{cpp} to check whether a header is
+functional might let your @command{configure} accept a header which
+causes some @emph{compiler} error.  Do not hesitate to check a header with
+other headers included before, especially required headers.
+
+Make sure the symbols you use are properly defined, i.e., refrain from
+simply declaring a function yourself instead of including the proper
+header.
+
+Test programs should not write to standard output.  They
+should exit with status 0 if the test succeeds, and with status 1
+otherwise, so that success
+can be distinguished easily from a core dump or other failure;
+segmentation violations and other failures produce a nonzero exit
+status.  Unless you arrange for @code{exit} to be declared, test
+programs should @code{return}, not @code{exit}, from @code{main},
+because on many systems @code{exit} is not declared by default.
+
+Test programs can use @code{#if} or @code{#ifdef} to check the values of
+preprocessor macros defined by tests that have already run.  For
+example, if you call @code{AC_HEADER_STDBOOL}, then later on in
+@file{configure.ac} you can have a test program that includes
+@file{stdbool.h} conditionally:
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H
+# include <stdbool.h>
+#endif
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Both @code{#if HAVE_STDBOOL_H} and @code{#ifdef HAVE_STDBOOL_H} will
+work with any standard C compiler.  Some developers prefer @code{#if}
+because it is easier to read, while others prefer @code{#ifdef} because
+it avoids diagnostics with picky compilers like GCC with the
+@option{-Wundef} option.
+
+If a test program needs to use or create a data file, give it a name
+that starts with @file{conftest}, such as @file{conftest.data}.  The
+@command{configure} script cleans up by running @samp{rm -f -r conftest*}
+after running test programs and if the script is interrupted.
+
+@node Test Functions
+@subsection Test Functions
+
+These days it's safe to assume support for function prototypes
+(introduced in C89).
+
+Functions that test programs declare should also be conditionalized for
+C++, which requires @samp{extern "C"} prototypes.  Make sure to not
+include any header files containing clashing prototypes.
+
+@example
+#ifdef __cplusplus
+extern "C"
+#endif
+void *valloc (size_t);
+@end example
+
+If a test program calls a function with invalid parameters (just to see
+whether it exists), organize the program to ensure that it never invokes
+that function.  You can do this by calling it in another function that is
+never invoked.  You can't do it by putting it after a call to
+@code{exit}, because GCC version 2 knows that @code{exit}
+never returns
+and optimizes out any code that follows it in the same block.
+
+If you include any header files, be sure to call the functions
+relevant to them with the correct number of arguments, even if they are
+just 0, to avoid compilation errors due to prototypes.  GCC
+version 2
+has internal prototypes for several functions that it automatically
+inlines; for example, @code{memcpy}.  To avoid errors when checking for
+them, either pass them the correct number of arguments or redeclare them
+with a different return type (such as @code{char}).
+
+
+@node Generating Sources
+@subsection Generating Sources
+
+Autoconf provides a set of macros that can be used to generate test
+source files.  They are written to be language generic, i.e., they
+actually depend on the current language (@pxref{Language Choice}) to
+``format'' the output properly.
+
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_CONFTEST (@var{source})
+@acindex{LANG_CONFTEST}
+Save the @var{source} text in the current test source file:
+@file{conftest.@var{extension}} where the @var{extension} depends on the
+current language.  As of Autoconf 2.63b, the source file also contains
+the results of all of the @code{AC_DEFINE} performed so far.
+
+Note that the @var{source} is evaluated exactly once, like regular
+Autoconf macro arguments, and therefore (i) you may pass a macro
+invocation, (ii) if not, be sure to double quote if needed.
+
+This macro issues a warning during @command{autoconf} processing if
+@var{source} does not include an expansion of the macro
+@code{AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED} (note that both @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE} and
+@code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM} call this macro, and thus avoid the warning).
+
+This macro is seldom called directly, but is used under the hood by more
+common macros such as @code{AC_COMPILE_IFELSE} and @code{AC_RUN_IFELSE}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED
+@acindex{LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED}
+This macro is called as a witness that the file
+@file{conftest.@var{extension}} appropriate for the current language is
+complete, including all previously determined results from
+@code{AC_DEFINE}.  This macro is seldom called directly, but exists if
+you have a compelling reason to write a conftest file without using
+@code{AC_LANG_SOURCE}, yet still want to avoid a syntax warning from
+@code{AC_LANG_CONFTEST}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_SOURCE (@var{source})
+@acindex{LANG_SOURCE}
+Expands into the @var{source}, with the definition of
+all the @code{AC_DEFINE} performed so far.  This macro includes an
+expansion of @code{AC_LANG_DEFINES_PROVIDED}.
+
+In many cases, you may find it more convenient to use the wrapper
+@code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM}.
+@end defmac
+
+For instance, executing (observe the double quotation!):
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/compile.at:AC_LANG_SOURCE example.
+AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@@example.org], [],

+
+When the test language is Fortran, Erlang, or Go, the @code{AC_DEFINE}
+definitions are not automatically translated into constants in the
+source code by this macro.
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_PROGRAM (@var{prologue}, @var{body})
+@acindex{LANG_PROGRAM}
+Expands into a source file which consists of the @var{prologue}, and

+C).  Since it uses @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE}, the features of the latter are
+available.

+@}
+@end example
+
+In Erlang tests, the created source file is that of an Erlang module called
+@code{conftest} (@file{conftest.erl}).  This module defines and exports
+at least
+one @code{start/0} function, which is called to perform the test.  The
+@var{prologue} is optional code that is inserted between the module header and
+the @code{start/0} function definition.  @var{body} is the body of the
+@code{start/0} function without the final period (@pxref{Runtime}, about
+constraints on this function's behavior).
+
+For instance:
+
+@example
+AC_INIT([Hello], [1.0], [bug-hello@@example.org])
+AC_LANG(Erlang)
+AC_LANG_CONFTEST(
+[AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[-define(HELLO_WORLD, "Hello, world!").]],
+                 [[io:format("~s~n", [?HELLO_WORLD])]])])
+cat conftest.erl
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+results in:
+
+@example
+-module(conftest).
+-export([start/0]).
+-define(HELLO_WORLD, "Hello, world!").
+start() ->
+io:format("~s~n", [?HELLO_WORLD])
+.
+@end example
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_CALL (@var{prologue}, @var{function})
+@acindex{LANG_CALL}
+Expands into a source file which consists of the @var{prologue}, and
+then a call to the @var{function} as body of the main function (e.g.,
+@code{main} in C).  Since it uses @code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM}, the feature
+of the latter are available.
+
+This function will probably be replaced in the future by a version
+which would enable specifying the arguments.  The use of this macro is
+not encouraged, as it violates strongly the typing system.
+
+This macro cannot be used for Erlang tests.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY (@var{function})
+@acindex{LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY}
+Expands into a source file which uses the @var{function} in the body of
+the main function (e.g., @code{main} in C).  Since it uses
+@code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM}, the features of the latter are available.
+
+As @code{AC_LANG_CALL}, this macro is documented only for completeness.
+It is considered to be severely broken, and in the future will be

+
+Sometimes one might need to run the preprocessor on some source file.
+@emph{Usually it is a bad idea}, as you typically need to @emph{compile}
+your project, not merely run the preprocessor on it; therefore you
+certainly want to run the compiler, not the preprocessor.  Resist the
+temptation of following the easiest path.
+
+Nevertheless, if you need to run the preprocessor, then use
+@code{AC_PREPROC_IFELSE}.
+
+The macros described in this section cannot be used for tests in Erlang,
+Fortran, or Go, since those languages require no preprocessor.
+
+@anchor{AC_PREPROC_IFELSE}
+@defmac AC_PREPROC_IFELSE (@var{input}, @ovar{action-if-true}, @
+  @ovar{action-if-false})
+@acindex{PREPROC_IFELSE}
+Run the preprocessor of the current language (@pxref{Language Choice})
+on the @var{input}, run the shell commands @var{action-if-true} on
+success, @var{action-if-false} otherwise.  The @var{input} can be made
+by @code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM} and friends.
+
+This macro uses @code{CPPFLAGS}, but not @code{CFLAGS}, because
+@option{-g}, @option{-O}, etc.@: are not valid options to many C
+preprocessors.
+
+It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+@code{AC_MSG_FAILURE}.  If needed, @var{action-if-true} can further access
+the preprocessed output in the file @file{conftest.i}.

+@node Running the Linker
+@section Running the Linker
+
+To check for a library, a function, or a global variable, Autoconf
+@command{configure} scripts try to compile and link a small program that
+uses it.  This is unlike Metaconfig, which by default uses @code{nm} or
+@code{ar} on the C library to try to figure out which functions are
+available.  Trying to link with the function is usually a more reliable
+approach because it avoids dealing with the variations in the options
+and output formats of @code{nm} and @code{ar} and in the location of the
+standard libraries.  It also allows configuring for cross-compilation or
+checking a function's runtime behavior if needed.  On the other hand,
+it can be slower than scanning the libraries once, but accuracy is more
+important than speed.
+
+@code{AC_LINK_IFELSE} is used to compile test programs to test for

+@section Checking Runtime Behavior
+
+Sometimes you need to find out how a system performs at runtime, such
+as whether a given function has a certain capability or bug.  If you
+can, make such checks when your program runs instead of when it is
+configured.  You can check for things like the machine's endianness when
+your program initializes itself.
+
+If you really need to test for a runtime behavior while configuring,
+you can write a test program to determine the result, and compile and
+run it using @code{AC_RUN_IFELSE}.  Avoid running test programs if
+possible, because this prevents people from configuring your package for
+cross-compiling.
+
+@anchor{AC_RUN_IFELSE}
+@defmac AC_RUN_IFELSE (@var{input}, @ovar{action-if-true}, @
+  @ovar{action-if-false}, @dvar{action-if-cross-compiling, AC_MSG_FAILURE})
+@acindex{RUN_IFELSE}
+Run the compiler (and compilation flags) and the linker of the current
+language (@pxref{Language Choice}) on the @var{input}, then execute the
+resulting program.  If the program returns an exit
+status of 0 when executed, run shell commands @var{action-if-true}.
+Otherwise, run shell commands @var{action-if-false}.
+
+The @var{input} can be made by @code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM} and friends.
+@code{LDFLAGS} and @code{LIBS} are used for linking, in addition to the
+compilation flags of the current language (@pxref{Language Choice}).
+Additionally, @var{action-if-true} can run @command{./conftest$EXEEXT}
+for further testing.
+
+In the @var{action-if-false} section, the failing exit status is
+available in the shell variable @samp{$?}.  This exit status might be
+that of a failed compilation, or it might be that of a failed program
+execution.
+
+If cross-compilation mode is enabled (this is the case if either the
+compiler being used does not produce executables that run on the system
+where @command{configure} is being run, or if the options @code{--build}
+and @code{--host} were both specified and their values are different),
+then the test program is
+not run.  If the optional shell commands @var{action-if-cross-compiling}
+are given, those commands are run instead; typically these commands
+provide pessimistic defaults that allow cross-compilation to work even
+if the guess was wrong.  If the fourth argument is empty or omitted, but
+cross-compilation is detected, then @command{configure} prints an error
+message and exits.  If you want your package to be useful in a
+cross-compilation scenario, you @emph{should} provide a non-empty
+@var{action-if-cross-compiling} clause, as well as wrap the
+@code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} compilation inside an @code{AC_CACHE_CHECK}
+(@pxref{Caching Results}) which allows the user to override the
+pessimistic default if needed.
+
+It is customary to report unexpected failures with
+@code{AC_MSG_FAILURE}.
+@end defmac
+
+@command{autoconf} prints a warning message when creating
+@command{configure} each time it encounters a call to
+@code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} with no @var{action-if-cross-compiling} argument
+given.  If you are not concerned about users configuring your package
+for cross-compilation, you may ignore the warning.  A few of the macros
+distributed with Autoconf produce this warning message; but if this is a
+problem for you, please report it as a bug, along with an appropriate
+pessimistic guess to use instead.
+
+To configure for cross-compiling you can also choose a value for those
+parameters based on the canonical system name (@pxref{Manual
+Configuration}).  Alternatively, set up a test results cache file with
+the correct values for the host system (@pxref{Caching Results}).
+
+@ovindex cross_compiling
+To provide a default for calls of @code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} that are embedded
+in other macros, including a few of the ones that come with Autoconf,
+you can test whether the shell variable @code{cross_compiling} is set to
+@samp{yes}, and then use an alternate method to get the results instead
+of calling the macros.
+
+It is also permissible to temporarily assign to @code{cross_compiling}
+in order to force tests to behave as though they are in a
+cross-compilation environment, particularly since this provides a way to
+test your @var{action-if-cross-compiling} even when you are not using a
+cross-compiler.
+
+@example
+# We temporarily set cross-compile mode to force AC_COMPUTE_INT
+# to use the slow link-only method
+save_cross_compiling=$cross_compiling
+cross_compiling=yes
+AC_COMPUTE_INT([@dots{}])
+cross_compiling=$save_cross_compiling

+A C or C++ runtime test should be portable.
+@xref{Portable C and C++}.
+
+Erlang tests must exit themselves the Erlang VM by calling the @code{halt/1}
+function: the given status code is used to determine the success of the test
+(status is @code{0}) or its failure (status is different than @code{0}), as
+explained above.  It must be noted that data output through the standard output
+(e.g., using @code{io:format/2}) may be truncated when halting the VM.
+Therefore, if a test must output configuration information, it is recommended
+to create and to output data into the temporary file named @file{conftest.out},
+using the functions of module @code{file}.  The @code{conftest.out} file is
+automatically deleted by the @code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} macro.  For instance, a

+macro is:

+
+@node Defining Symbols
+@section Defining C Preprocessor Symbols
+
+A common action to take in response to a feature test is to define a C
+preprocessor symbol indicating the results of the test.  That is done by
+calling @code{AC_DEFINE} or @code{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED}.
+
+By default, @code{AC_OUTPUT} places the symbols defined by these macros
+into the output variable @code{DEFS}, which contains an option
+@option{-D@var{symbol}=@var{value}} for each symbol defined.  Unlike in
+Autoconf version 1, there is no variable @code{DEFS} defined while
+@command{configure} is running.  To check whether Autoconf macros have
+already defined a certain C preprocessor symbol, test the value of the
+appropriate cache variable, as in this example:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_FUNC([vprintf], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_VPRINTF], [1],
+                          [Define if vprintf exists.])])
+if test "x$ac_cv_func_vprintf" != xyes; then
+  AC_CHECK_FUNC([_doprnt], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_DOPRNT], [1],
+                            [Define if _doprnt exists.])])
+fi
+@end example
+
+If @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} has been called, then instead of creating
+@code{DEFS}, @code{AC_OUTPUT} creates a header file by substituting the
+correct values into @code{#define} statements in a template file.
+@xref{Configuration Headers}, for more information about this kind of
+output.
+
+@defmac AC_DEFINE (@var{variable}, @var{value}, @ovar{description})
+@defmacx AC_DEFINE (@var{variable})
+@cvindex @var{variable}
+@acindex{DEFINE}
+Define @var{variable} to @var{value} (verbatim), by defining a C
+preprocessor macro for @var{variable}.  @var{variable} should be a C
+identifier, optionally suffixed by a parenthesized argument list to
+define a C preprocessor macro with arguments.  The macro argument list,
+if present, should be a comma-separated list of C identifiers, possibly
+terminated by an ellipsis @samp{...} if C99 syntax is employed.
+@var{variable} should not contain comments, white space, trigraphs,
+backslash-newlines, universal character names, or non-ASCII
+characters.
+
+@var{value} may contain backslash-escaped newlines, which will be
+preserved if you use @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS} but flattened if passed
+via @code{@@DEFS@@} (with no effect on the compilation, since the
+preprocessor sees only one line in the first place).  @var{value} should
+not contain raw newlines.  If you are not using
+@code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}, @var{value} should not contain any @samp{#}
+characters, as @command{make} tends to eat them.  To use a shell
+variable, use @code{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED} instead.
+
+@var{description} is only useful if you are using
+@code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}.  In this case, @var{description} is put into
+the generated @file{config.h.in} as the comment before the macro define.
+The following example defines the C preprocessor variable
+@code{EQUATION} to be the string constant @samp{"$a > $b"}:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFINE([EQUATION], ["$a > $b"],
+  [Equation string.])
+@end example
+
+If neither @var{value} nor @var{description} are given, then
+@var{value} defaults to 1 instead of to the empty string.  This is for
+backwards compatibility with older versions of Autoconf, but this usage
+is obsolescent and may be withdrawn in future versions of Autoconf.
+
+If the @var{variable} is a literal string, it is passed to
+@code{m4_pattern_allow} (@pxref{Forbidden Patterns}).
+
+If multiple @code{AC_DEFINE} statements are executed for the same
+@var{variable} name (not counting any parenthesized argument list),
+the last one wins.

+
+@defmac AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED (@var{variable}, @var{value}, @ovar{description})
+@defmacx AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED (@var{variable})
+@acindex{DEFINE_UNQUOTED}
+@cvindex @var{variable}
+Like @code{AC_DEFINE}, but three shell expansions are
+performed---once---on @var{variable} and @var{value}: variable expansion
+(@samp{$}), command substitution (@samp{`}), and backslash escaping
+(@samp{\}), as if in an unquoted here-document.  Single and double quote
+characters in the value have no
+special meaning.  Use this macro instead of @code{AC_DEFINE} when
+@var{variable} or @var{value} is a shell variable.  Examples:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([config_machfile], ["$machfile"],
+  [Configuration machine file.])
+AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([GETGROUPS_T], [$ac_cv_type_getgroups],
+  [getgroups return type.])
+AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([$ac_tr_hdr], [1],
+  [Translated header name.])
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+Due to a syntactical bizarreness of the Bourne shell, do not use
+semicolons to separate @code{AC_DEFINE} or @code{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED}
+calls from other macro calls or shell code; that can cause syntax errors
+in the resulting @command{configure} script.  Use either blanks or
+newlines.  That is, do this:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_HEADER([elf.h],
+  [AC_DEFINE([SVR4], [1], [System V Release 4]) LIBS="-lelf $LIBS"])
+@end example
+

+  [AC_DEFINE([SVR4], [1], [System V Release 4])

+
+@node Setting Output Variables
+@section Setting Output Variables
+@cindex Output variables
+
+Another way to record the results of tests is to set @dfn{output
+variables}, which are shell variables whose values are substituted into
+files that @command{configure} outputs.  The two macros below create new
+output variables.  @xref{Preset Output Variables}, for a list of output
+variables that are always available.
+
+@defmac AC_SUBST (@var{variable}, @ovar{value})
+@acindex{SUBST}
+Create an output variable from a shell variable.  Make @code{AC_OUTPUT}
+substitute the variable @var{variable} into output files (typically one
+or more makefiles).  This means that @code{AC_OUTPUT}
+replaces instances of @samp{@@@var{variable}@@} in input files with the
+value that the shell variable @var{variable} has when @code{AC_OUTPUT}
+is called.  The value can contain any non-@code{NUL} character, including
+newline.  If you are using Automake 1.11 or newer, for newlines in values
+you might want to consider using @code{AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE} to prevent
+@command{automake} from adding a line @code{@var{variable} =
+@@@var{variable}@@} to the @file{Makefile.in} files (@pxref{Optional, ,
+Automake, automake, Other things Automake recognizes}).
+
+Variable occurrences should not overlap: e.g., an input file should
+not contain @samp{@@@var{var1}@@@var{var2}@@} if @var{var1} and @var{var2}
+are variable names.
+The substituted value is not rescanned for more output variables;
+occurrences of @samp{@@@var{variable}@@} in the value are inserted
+literally into the output file.  (The algorithm uses the special marker
+@code{|#_!!_#|} internally, so neither the substituted value nor the
+output file may contain @code{|#_!!_#|}.)
+
+If @var{value} is given, in addition assign it to @var{variable}.
+
+The string @var{variable} is passed to @code{m4_pattern_allow}
+(@pxref{Forbidden Patterns}).
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_SUBST_FILE (@var{variable})
+@acindex{SUBST_FILE}
+Another way to create an output variable from a shell variable.  Make
+@code{AC_OUTPUT} insert (without substitutions) the contents of the file
+named by shell variable @var{variable} into output files.  This means
+that @code{AC_OUTPUT} replaces instances of
+@samp{@@@var{variable}@@} in output files (such as @file{Makefile.in})
+with the contents of the file that the shell variable @var{variable}
+names when @code{AC_OUTPUT} is called.  Set the variable to
+@file{/dev/null} for cases that do not have a file to insert.
+This substitution occurs only when the @samp{@@@var{variable}@@} is on a
+line by itself, optionally surrounded by spaces and tabs.  The
+substitution replaces the whole line, including the spaces, tabs, and
+the terminating newline.
+
+This macro is useful for inserting makefile fragments containing
+special dependencies or other @command{make} directives for particular host
+or target types into makefiles.  For example, @file{configure.ac}
+could contain:
+
+@example
+AC_SUBST_FILE([host_frag])
+host_frag=$srcdir/conf/sun4.mh
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and then a @file{Makefile.in} could contain:
+
+@example
+@@host_frag@@

+The string @var{variable} is passed to @code{m4_pattern_allow}
+(@pxref{Forbidden Patterns}).

+@cindex Variable, Precious
+Running @command{configure} in varying environments can be extremely

+@var{description} in the variable section of @samp{./configure --help}.
+
+Being precious means that
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+@var{variable} is substituted via @code{AC_SUBST}.
+
+@item
+The value of @var{variable} when @command{configure} was launched is
+saved in the cache, including if it was not specified on the command
+line but via the environment.  Indeed, while @command{configure} can
+notice the definition of @code{CC} in @samp{./configure CC=bizarre-cc},
+it is impossible to notice it in @samp{CC=bizarre-cc ./configure},
+which, unfortunately, is what most users do.
+
+We emphasize that it is the @emph{initial} value of @var{variable} which
+is saved, not that found during the execution of @command{configure}.
+Indeed, specifying @samp{./configure FOO=foo} and letting
+@samp{./configure} guess that @code{FOO} is @code{foo} can be two
+different things.
+
+@item
+@var{variable} is checked for consistency between two
+@command{configure} runs.  For instance:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{./configure --silent --config-cache}
+$ @kbd{CC=cc ./configure --silent --config-cache}
+configure: error: `CC' was not set in the previous run
+configure: error: changes in the environment can compromise \
+the build
+configure: error: run `make distclean' and/or \
+`rm config.cache' and start over
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and similarly if the variable is unset, or if its content is changed.
+If the content has white space changes only, then the error is degraded
+to a warning only, but the old value is reused.
+
+@item
+@var{variable} is kept during automatic reconfiguration
+(@pxref{config.status Invocation}) as if it had been passed as a command
+line argument, including when no cache is used:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{CC=/usr/bin/cc ./configure var=raboof --silent}
+$ @kbd{./config.status --recheck}
+running CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh /bin/sh ./configure var=raboof \
+  CC=/usr/bin/cc  --no-create --no-recursion

+@node Special Chars in Variables
+@section Special Characters in Output Variables
+@cindex Output variables, special characters in
+
+Many output variables are intended to be evaluated both by
+@command{make} and by the shell.  Some characters are expanded
+differently in these two contexts, so to avoid confusion these
+variables' values should not contain any of the following characters:
+
+@example
+" # $ & ' ( ) * ; < > ? [ \ ^ ` |
+@end example
+
+Also, these variables' values should neither contain newlines, nor start
+with @samp{~}, nor contain white space or @samp{:} immediately followed
+by @samp{~}.  The values can contain nonempty sequences of white space
+characters like tabs and spaces, but each such sequence might
+arbitrarily be replaced by a single space during substitution.
+
+These restrictions apply both to the values that @command{configure}
+computes, and to the values set directly by the user.  For example, the
+following invocations of @command{configure} are problematic, since they
+attempt to use special characters within @code{CPPFLAGS} and white space
+within @code{$(srcdir)}:
+
+@example
+CPPFLAGS='-DOUCH="&\"#$*?"' '../My Source/ouch-1.0/configure'
+
+'../My Source/ouch-1.0/configure' CPPFLAGS='-DOUCH="&\"#$*?"'

+@node Caching Results
+@section Caching Results
+@cindex Cache
+
+To avoid checking for the same features repeatedly in various
+@command{configure} scripts (or in repeated runs of one script),
+@command{configure} can optionally save the results of many checks in a
+@dfn{cache file} (@pxref{Cache Files}).  If a @command{configure} script
+runs with caching enabled and finds a cache file, it reads the results
+of previous runs from the cache and avoids rerunning those checks.  As a
+result, @command{configure} can then run much faster than if it had to
+perform all of the checks every time.
+
+@defmac AC_CACHE_VAL (@var{cache-id}, @var{commands-to-set-it})
+@acindex{CACHE_VAL}
+Ensure that the results of the check identified by @var{cache-id} are
+available.  If the results of the check were in the cache file that was
+read, and @command{configure} was not given the @option{--quiet} or
+@option{--silent} option, print a message saying that the result was
+cached; otherwise, run the shell commands @var{commands-to-set-it}.  If
+the shell commands are run to determine the value, the value is
+saved in the cache file just before @command{configure} creates its output
+files.  @xref{Cache Variable Names}, for how to choose the name of the
+@var{cache-id} variable.

+
+@defmac AC_CACHE_CHECK (@var{message}, @var{cache-id}, @
+  @var{commands-to-set-it})
+@acindex{CACHE_CHECK}
+A wrapper for @code{AC_CACHE_VAL} that takes care of printing the
+messages.  This macro provides a convenient shorthand for the most
+common way to use these macros.  It calls @code{AC_MSG_CHECKING} for
+@var{message}, then @code{AC_CACHE_VAL} with the @var{cache-id} and
+@var{commands} arguments, and @code{AC_MSG_RESULT} with @var{cache-id}.
+
+The @var{commands-to-set-it} @emph{must have no side effects} except for
+setting the variable @var{cache-id}, see below.
+@end defmac
+
+It is common to find buggy macros using @code{AC_CACHE_VAL} or
+@code{AC_CACHE_CHECK}, because people are tempted to call
+@code{AC_DEFINE} in the @var{commands-to-set-it}.  Instead, the code that
+@emph{follows} the call to @code{AC_CACHE_VAL} should call
+@code{AC_DEFINE}, by examining the value of the cache variable.  For
+instance, the following macro is broken:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/base.at:AC_CACHE_CHECK.
+@group
+AC_DEFUN([AC_SHELL_TRUE],
+[AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether true(1) works], [my_cv_shell_true_works],
+                [my_cv_shell_true_works=no
+                 (true) 2>/dev/null && my_cv_shell_true_works=yes
+                 if test "x$my_cv_shell_true_works" = xyes; then
+                   AC_DEFINE([TRUE_WORKS], [1],
+                             [Define if `true(1)' works properly.])
+                 fi])
+])
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This fails if the cache is enabled: the second time this macro is run,
+@code{TRUE_WORKS} @emph{will not be defined}.  The proper implementation
+is:
+
+@example
+@c If you change this example, adjust tests/base.at:AC_CACHE_CHECK.
+@group
+AC_DEFUN([AC_SHELL_TRUE],
+[AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether true(1) works], [my_cv_shell_true_works],
+                [my_cv_shell_true_works=no
+                 (true) 2>/dev/null && my_cv_shell_true_works=yes])
+ if test "x$my_cv_shell_true_works" = xyes; then
+   AC_DEFINE([TRUE_WORKS], [1],
+             [Define if `true(1)' works properly.])
+ fi
+])
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Also, @var{commands-to-set-it} should not print any messages, for
+example with @code{AC_MSG_CHECKING}; do that before calling
+@code{AC_CACHE_VAL}, so the messages are printed regardless of whether
+the results of the check are retrieved from the cache or determined by
+running the shell commands.

+@end example
+

+For cache values used by the distributed Autoconf macros, this value is

+
+@item @code{_cv_}
+Indicates that this shell variable is a cache value.  This string
+@emph{must} be present in the variable name, including the leading
+underscore.
+
+@item @var{value-type}
+A convention for classifying cache values, to produce a rational naming
+system.  The values used in Autoconf are listed in @ref{Macro Names}.
+
+@item @var{specific-value}
+Which member of the class of cache values this test applies to.

+
+@node Cache Files
+@subsection Cache Files
+
+A cache file is a shell script that caches the results of configure
+tests run on one system so they can be shared between configure scripts
+and configure runs.  It is not useful on other systems.  If its contents
+are invalid for some reason, the user may delete or edit it, or override
+documented cache variables on the @command{configure} command line.
+
+By default, @command{configure} uses no cache file,
+to avoid problems caused by accidental
+use of stale cache files.
+
+To enable caching, @command{configure} accepts @option{--config-cache} (or
+@option{-C}) to cache results in the file @file{config.cache}.
+Alternatively, @option{--cache-file=@var{file}} specifies that
+@var{file} be the cache file.  The cache file is created if it does not
+exist already.  When @command{configure} calls @command{configure} scripts in
+subdirectories, it uses the @option{--cache-file} argument so that they
+share the same cache.  @xref{Subdirectories}, for information on
+configuring subdirectories with the @code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS} macro.
+
+@file{config.status} only pays attention to the cache file if it is
+given the @option{--recheck} option, which makes it rerun
+@command{configure}.
+
+It is wrong to try to distribute cache files for particular system types.
+There is too much room for error in doing that, and too much
+administrative overhead in maintaining them.  For any features that
+can't be guessed automatically, use the standard method of the canonical
+system type and linking files (@pxref{Manual Configuration}).
+
+The site initialization script can specify a site-wide cache file to
+use, instead of the usual per-program cache.  In this case, the cache
+file gradually accumulates information whenever someone runs a new
+@command{configure} script.  (Running @command{configure} merges the new cache
+results with the existing cache file.)  This may cause problems,
+however, if the system configuration (e.g., the installed libraries or
+compilers) changes and the stale cache file is not deleted.
+
+If @command{configure} is interrupted at the right time when it updates
+a cache file outside of the build directory where the @command{configure}
+script is run, it may leave behind a temporary file named after the
+cache file with digits following it.  You may safely delete such a file.
+
+
+@node Cache Checkpointing
+@subsection Cache Checkpointing
+
+If your configure script, or a macro called from @file{configure.ac}, happens
+to abort the configure process, it may be useful to checkpoint the cache
+a few times at key points using @code{AC_CACHE_SAVE}.  Doing so
+reduces the amount of time it takes to rerun the configure script with
+(hopefully) the error that caused the previous abort corrected.
+
+@c FIXME: Do we really want to document this guy?
+@defmac AC_CACHE_LOAD
+@acindex{CACHE_LOAD}

+cache file is not found.  Called automatically from @code{AC_INIT}.

+@node Printing Messages
+@section Printing Messages
+@cindex Messages, from @command{configure}
+
+@command{configure} scripts need to give users running them several kinds
+of information.  The following macros print messages in ways appropriate
+for each kind.  The arguments to all of them get enclosed in shell
+double quotes, so the shell performs variable and back-quote
+substitution on them.
+
+These macros are all wrappers around the @command{echo} shell command.
+They direct output to the appropriate file descriptor (@pxref{File
+Descriptor Macros}).
+@command{configure} scripts should rarely need to run @command{echo} directly
+to print messages for the user.  Using these macros makes it easy to
+change how and when each kind of message is printed; such changes need
+only be made to the macro definitions and all the callers change
+automatically.
+
+To diagnose static issues, i.e., when @command{autoconf} is run, see
+@ref{Diagnostic Macros}.
+
+@defmac AC_MSG_CHECKING (@var{feature-description})
+@acindex{MSG_CHECKING}
+Notify the user that @command{configure} is checking for a particular
+feature.  This macro prints a message that starts with @samp{checking }
+and ends with @samp{...} and no newline.  It must be followed by a call
+to @code{AC_MSG_RESULT} to print the result of the check and the
+newline.  The @var{feature-description} should be something like
+@samp{whether the Fortran compiler accepts C++ comments} or @samp{for
+c89}.
+
+This macro prints nothing if @command{configure} is run with the
+@option{--quiet} or @option{--silent} option.
+@end defmac
+
+@anchor{AC_MSG_RESULT}
+@defmac AC_MSG_RESULT (@var{result-description})

+Notify the user of the results of a check.  @var{result-description} is
+almost always the value of the cache variable for the check, typically
+@samp{yes}, @samp{no}, or a file name.  This macro should follow a call
+to @code{AC_MSG_CHECKING}, and the @var{result-description} should be
+the completion of the message printed by the call to
+@code{AC_MSG_CHECKING}.
+
+This macro prints nothing if @command{configure} is run with the

+by default, except that @samp{0} is converted to @samp{1}).
+@var{error-description} should be something like @samp{invalid value

+
+@node Active Characters
+@subsection Active Characters
+
+To fully understand where proper quotation is important, you first need
+to know what the special characters are in Autoconf: @samp{#} introduces
+a comment inside which no macro expansion is performed, @samp{,}
+separates arguments, @samp{[} and @samp{]} are the quotes
+themselves@footnote{By itself, M4 uses @samp{`} and @samp{'}; it is the
+M4sugar layer that sets up the preferred quotes of @samp{[} and @samp{]}.},
+@samp{(} and @samp{)} (which M4 tries to match by pairs), and finally
+@samp{$} inside a macro definition.
+
+In order to understand the delicate case of macro calls, we first have
+to present some obvious failures.  Below they are ``obvious-ified'',
+but when you find them in real life, they are usually in disguise.
+
+Comments, introduced by a hash and running up to the newline, are opaque
+tokens to the top level: active characters are turned off, and there is
+no macro expansion:
+
+@example
+# define([def], ine)
+@result{}# define([def], ine)
+@end example
+
+Each time there can be a macro expansion, there is a quotation
+expansion, i.e., one level of quotes is stripped:
+
+@example
+int tab[10];
+@result{}int tab10;
+[int tab[10];]
+@result{}int tab[10];
+@end example
+
+Without this in mind, the reader might try hopelessly to use her macro
+@code{array}:
+
+@example
+define([array], [int tab[10];])
+array
+@result{}int tab10;
+[array]
+@result{}array
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+How can you correctly output the intended results@footnote{Using
+@code{defn}.}?
+
+
+@node One Macro Call
+@subsection One Macro Call
+
+Let's proceed on the interaction between active characters and macros
+with this small macro, which just returns its first argument:
+
+@example
+define([car], [$1])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The two pairs of quotes above are not part of the arguments of
+@code{define}; rather, they are understood by the top level when it
+tries to find the arguments of @code{define}.  Therefore, assuming
+@code{car} is not already defined, it is equivalent to write:
+
+@example
+define(car, $1)
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+But, while it is acceptable for a @file{configure.ac} to avoid unnecessary
+quotes, it is bad practice for Autoconf macros which must both be more
+robust and also advocate perfect style.
+
+At the top level, there are only two possibilities: either you
+quote or you don't:
+
+@example
+car(foo, bar, baz)
+@result{}foo
+[car(foo, bar, baz)]
+@result{}car(foo, bar, baz)
+@end example
+
+Let's pay attention to the special characters:
+
+@example
+car(#)
+@error{}EOF in argument list
+@end example
+
+The closing parenthesis is hidden in the comment; with a hypothetical
+quoting, the top level understood it this way:
+
+@example
+car([#)]
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Proper quotation, of course, fixes the problem:
+
+@example
+car([#])
+@result{}#
+@end example
+
+Here are more examples:
+
+@example
+car(foo, bar)
+@result{}foo
+car([foo, bar])
+@result{}foo, bar
+car((foo, bar))
+@result{}(foo, bar)
+car([(foo], [bar)])
+@result{}(foo
+define([a], [b])
+@result{}
+car(a)
+@result{}b
+car([a])
+@result{}b
+car([[a]])
+@result{}a
+car([[[a]]])
+@result{}[a]
+@end example
+
+@node Quoting and Parameters
+@subsection Quoting and Parameters
+
+When M4 encounters @samp{$} within a macro definition, followed
+immediately by a character it recognizes (@samp{0}@dots{}@samp{9},
+@samp{#}, @samp{@@}, or @samp{*}), it will perform M4 parameter
+expansion.  This happens regardless of how many layers of quotes the
+parameter expansion is nested within, or even if it occurs in text that
+will be rescanned as a comment.
+
+@example
+define([none], [$1])
+@result{}
+define([one], [[$1]])
+@result{}
+define([two], [[[$1]]])
+@result{}
+define([comment], [# $1])
+@result{}
+define([active], [ACTIVE])
+@result{}
+none([active])
+@result{}ACTIVE
+one([active])
+@result{}active
+two([active])
+@result{}[active]
+comment([active])
+@result{}# active
+@end example
+
+On the other hand, since autoconf generates shell code, you often want
+to output shell variable expansion, rather than performing M4 parameter
+expansion.  To do this, you must use M4 quoting to separate the @samp{$}
+from the next character in the definition of your macro.  If the macro
+definition occurs in single-quoted text, then insert another level of
+quoting; if the usage is already inside a double-quoted string, then
+split it into concatenated strings.
+
+@example
+define([single], [a single-quoted $[]1 definition])
+@result{}
+define([double], [[a double-quoted $][1 definition]])
+@result{}
+single
+@result{}a single-quoted $1 definition
+double
+@result{}a double-quoted $1 definition
+@end example
+
+Posix states that M4 implementations are free to provide implementation
+extensions when @samp{$@{} is encountered in a macro definition.
+Autoconf reserves the longer sequence @samp{$@{@{} for use with planned
+extensions that will be available in the future GNU M4 2.0,
+but guarantees that all other instances of @samp{$@{} will be output
+literally.  Therefore, this idiom can also be used to output shell code
+parameter references:
+
+@example
+define([first], [$@{1@}])first
+@result{}$@{1@}
+@end example
+
+Posix also states that @samp{$11} should expand to the first parameter
+concatenated with a literal @samp{1}, although some versions of
+GNU M4 expand the eleventh parameter instead.  For
+portability, you should only use single-digit M4 parameter expansion.
+
+With this in mind, we can explore the cases where macros invoke

+
+@node Quotation and Nested Macros
+@subsection Quotation and Nested Macros
+
+The examples below use the following macros:
+
+@example
+define([car], [$1])
+define([active], [ACT, IVE])
+define([array], [int tab[10]])
+@end example
+
+Each additional embedded macro call introduces other possible
+interesting quotations:
+
+@example
+car(active)
+@result{}ACT
+car([active])
+@result{}ACT, IVE
+car([[active]])
+@result{}active
+@end example
+
+In the first case, the top level looks for the arguments of @code{car},
+and finds @samp{active}.  Because M4 evaluates its arguments
+before applying the macro, @samp{active} is expanded, which results in:
+
+@example
+car(ACT, IVE)
+@result{}ACT
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In the second case, the top level gives @samp{active} as first and only
+argument of @code{car}, which results in:
+
+@example
+active
+@result{}ACT, IVE
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+i.e., the argument is evaluated @emph{after} the macro that invokes it.
+In the third case, @code{car} receives @samp{[active]}, which results in:
+
+@example
+[active]
+@result{}active
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+exactly as we already saw above.
+
+The example above, applied to a more realistic example, gives:
+
+@example
+car(int tab[10];)
+@result{}int tab10;
+car([int tab[10];])
+@result{}int tab10;
+car([[int tab[10];]])
+@result{}int tab[10];
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Huh?  The first case is easily understood, but why is the second wrong,
+and the third right?  To understand that, you must know that after
+M4 expands a macro, the resulting text is immediately subjected
+to macro expansion and quote removal.  This means that the quote removal
+occurs twice---first before the argument is passed to the @code{car}
+macro, and second after the @code{car} macro expands to the first
+argument.
+
+As the author of the Autoconf macro @code{car}, you then consider it to
+be incorrect that your users have to double-quote the arguments of
+@code{car}, so you ``fix'' your macro.  Let's call it @code{qar} for
+quoted car:
+
+@example
+define([qar], [[$1]])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and check that @code{qar} is properly fixed:
+
+@example
+qar([int tab[10];])
+@result{}int tab[10];
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Ahhh!  That's much better.
+
+But note what you've done: now that the result of @code{qar} is always
+a literal string, the only time a user can use nested macros is if she
+relies on an @emph{unquoted} macro call:
+
+@example
+qar(active)
+@result{}ACT
+qar([active])
+@result{}active
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+leaving no way for her to reproduce what she used to do with @code{car}:
+
+@example
+car([active])
+@result{}ACT, IVE
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Worse yet: she wants to use a macro that produces a set of @code{cpp}
+macros:
+
+@example
+define([my_includes], [#include <stdio.h>])
+car([my_includes])
+@result{}#include <stdio.h>
+qar(my_includes)
+@error{}EOF in argument list
+@end example
+
+This macro, @code{qar}, because it double quotes its arguments, forces
+its users to leave their macro calls unquoted, which is dangerous.
+Commas and other active symbols are interpreted by M4 before
+they are given to the macro, often not in the way the users expect.
+Also, because @code{qar} behaves differently from the other macros,
+it's an exception that should be avoided in Autoconf.
+
+@node Changequote is Evil
+@subsection @code{changequote} is Evil
+@cindex @code{changequote}
+
+The temptation is often high to bypass proper quotation, in particular
+when it's late at night.  Then, many experienced Autoconf hackers
+finally surrender to the dark side of the force and use the ultimate
+weapon: @code{changequote}.
+
+The M4 builtin @code{changequote} belongs to a set of primitives that
+allow one to adjust the syntax of the language to adjust it to one's
+needs.  For instance, by default M4 uses @samp{`} and @samp{'} as
+quotes, but in the context of shell programming (and actually of most
+programming languages), that's about the worst choice one can make:
+because of strings and back-quoted expressions in shell code (such as
+@samp{'this'} and @samp{`that`}), and because of literal characters in usual
+programming languages (as in @samp{'0'}), there are many unbalanced
+@samp{`} and @samp{'}.  Proper M4 quotation then becomes a nightmare, if
+not impossible.  In order to make M4 useful in such a context, its
+designers have equipped it with @code{changequote}, which makes it
+possible to choose another pair of quotes.  M4sugar, M4sh, Autoconf, and
+Autotest all have chosen to use @samp{[} and @samp{]}.  Not especially
+because they are unlikely characters, but @emph{because they are
+characters unlikely to be unbalanced}.
+
+There are other magic primitives, such as @code{changecom} to specify
+what syntactic forms are comments (it is common to see
+@samp{changecom(<!--, -->)} when M4 is used to produce HTML pages),
+@code{changeword} and @code{changesyntax} to change other syntactic
+details (such as the character to denote the @var{n}th argument, @samp{$} by
+default, the parentheses around arguments, etc.).
+
+These primitives are really meant to make M4 more useful for specific
+domains: they should be considered like command line options:
+@option{--quotes}, @option{--comments}, @option{--words}, and
+@option{--syntax}.  Nevertheless, they are implemented as M4 builtins, as
+it makes M4 libraries self contained (no need for additional options).
+
+There lies the problem@enddots{}
+
+@sp 1
+
+The problem is that it is then tempting to use them in the middle of an
+M4 script, as opposed to its initialization.  This, if not carefully
+thought out, can lead to disastrous effects: @emph{you are changing the
+language in the middle of the execution}.  Changing and restoring the
+syntax is often not enough: if you happened to invoke macros in between,
+these macros are lost, as the current syntax is probably not
+the one they were implemented with.
+
+@c FIXME: I've been looking for a short, real case example, but I
+@c lost them all :(

+@end ifnotinfo
+
+When writing an Autoconf macro you may occasionally need to generate
+special characters that are difficult to express with the standard
+Autoconf quoting rules.  For example, you may need to output the regular
+expression @samp{[^[]}, which matches any character other than @samp{[}.
+This expression contains unbalanced brackets so it cannot be put easily
+into an M4 macro.
+
+Additionally, there are a few m4sugar macros (such as @code{m4_split}
+and @code{m4_expand}) which internally use special markers in addition
+to the regular quoting characters.  If the arguments to these macros
+contain the literal strings @samp{-=<@{(} or @samp{)@}>=-}, the macros
+might behave incorrectly.
+
+You can work around these problems by using one of the following
+@dfn{quadrigraphs}:
+
+@table @samp
+@item @@<:@@
+@samp{[}
+@item @@:>@@
+@samp{]}
+@item @@S|@@
+@samp{$}
+@item @@%:@@
+@samp{#}
+@item @@@{:@@
+@samp{(}
+@item @@:@}@@
+@samp{)}
+@item @@&t@@
+Expands to nothing.
+@end table
+
+Quadrigraphs are replaced at a late stage of the translation process,
+after @command{m4} is run, so they do not get in the way of M4 quoting.
+For example, the string @samp{^@@<:@@}, independently of its quotation,
+appears as @samp{^[} in the output.
+
+The empty quadrigraph can be used:
+
+@itemize @minus
+@item to mark trailing spaces explicitly
+
+Trailing spaces are smashed by @command{autom4te}.  This is a feature.
+
+@item to produce quadrigraphs and other strings reserved by m4sugar
+
+For instance @samp{@@<@@&t@@:@@} produces @samp{@@<:@@}.  For a more
+contrived example:
+
+@example
+m4_define([a], [A])m4_define([b], [B])m4_define([c], [C])dnl
+m4_split([a )@}>=- b -=<@{( c])
+@result{}[a], [], [B], [], [c]
+m4_split([a )@}@@&t@@>=- b -=<@@&t@@@{( c])
+@result{}[a], [)@}>=-], [b], [-=<@{(], [c]
+@end example
+
+@item to escape @emph{occurrences} of forbidden patterns
+
+For instance you might want to mention @code{AC_FOO} in a comment, while
+still being sure that @command{autom4te} still catches unexpanded
+@samp{AC_*}.  Then write @samp{AC@@&t@@_FOO}.
+@end itemize
+
+The name @samp{@@&t@@} was suggested by Paul Eggert:
+
+@quotation
+I should give some credit to the @samp{@@&t@@} pun.  The @samp{&} is my
+own invention, but the @samp{t} came from the source code of the
+ALGOL68C compiler, written by Steve Bourne (of Bourne shell fame),
+and which used @samp{mt} to denote the empty string.  In C, it would
+have looked like something like:
+
+@example
+char const mt[] = "";
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but of course the source code was written in Algol 68.
+
+I don't know where he got @samp{mt} from: it could have been his own
+invention, and I suppose it could have been a common pun around the
+Cambridge University computer lab at the time.

+
+@node Balancing Parentheses
+@subsection Dealing with unbalanced parentheses
+@cindex balancing parentheses
+@cindex parentheses, balancing
+@cindex unbalanced parentheses, managing
+
+One of the pitfalls of portable shell programming is that @command{case}
+statements require unbalanced parentheses (@pxref{case, , Limitations of
+Shell Builtins}).  With syntax highlighting
+editors, the presence of unbalanced @samp{)} can interfere with editors
+that perform syntax highlighting of macro contents based on finding the
+matching @samp{(}.  Another concern is how much editing must be done
+when transferring code snippets between shell scripts and macro
+definitions.  But most importantly, the presence of unbalanced
+parentheses can introduce expansion bugs.
+
+For an example, here is an underquoted attempt to use the macro
+@code{my_case}, which happens to expand to a portable @command{case}
+statement:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[case $file_name in
+  *.c) echo "C source code";;
+esac])
+AS_IF(:, my_case)
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In the above example, the @code{AS_IF} call underquotes its arguments.
+As a result, the unbalanced @samp{)} generated by the premature
+expansion of @code{my_case} results in expanding @code{AS_IF} with a
+truncated parameter, and the expansion is syntactically invalid:
+
+@example
+if :; then
+  case $file_name in
+  *.c
+fi echo "C source code";;
+esac)
+@end example
+
+If nothing else, this should emphasize the importance of the quoting
+arguments to macro calls.  On the other hand, there are several
+variations for defining @code{my_case} to be more robust, even when used
+without proper quoting, each with some benefits and some drawbacks.
+
+@itemize @w{}
+@item Creative literal shell comment
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[case $file_name in #(
+  *.c) echo "C source code";;
+esac])
+@end example
+@noindent
+This version provides balanced parentheses to several editors, and can
+be copied and pasted into a terminal as is.  Unfortunately, it is still
+unbalanced as an Autoconf argument, since @samp{#(} is an M4 comment
+that masks the normal properties of @samp{(}.
+
+@item Quadrigraph shell comment
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[case $file_name in @@%:@@(
+  *.c) echo "C source code";;
+esac])
+@end example
+@noindent
+This version provides balanced parentheses to even more editors, and can
+be used as a balanced Autoconf argument.  Unfortunately, it requires
+some editing before it can be copied and pasted into a terminal, and the
+use of the quadrigraph @samp{@@%:@@} for @samp{#} reduces readability.
+
+@item Quoting just the parenthesis
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[case $file_name in
+  *.c[)] echo "C source code";;
+esac])
+@end example
+@noindent
+This version quotes the @samp{)}, so that it can be used as a balanced
+Autoconf argument.  As written, this is not balanced to an editor, but
+it can be coupled with @samp{[#(]} to meet that need, too.  However, it
+still requires some edits before it can be copied and pasted into a
+terminal.
+
+@item Double-quoting the entire statement
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[[case $file_name in #(
+  *.c) echo "C source code";;
+esac]])
+@end example
+@noindent
+Since the entire macro is double-quoted, there is no problem with using
+this as an Autoconf argument; and since the double-quoting is over the
+entire statement, this code can be easily copied and pasted into a
+terminal.  However, the double quoting prevents the expansion of any
+macros inside the case statement, which may cause its own set of
+problems.
+
+@item Using @code{AS_CASE}
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([my_case],
+[AS_CASE([$file_name],
+  [*.c], [echo "C source code"])])
+@end example
+@noindent
+This version avoids the balancing issue altogether, by relying on
+@code{AS_CASE} (@pxref{Common Shell Constructs}); it also allows for the
+expansion of @code{AC_REQUIRE} to occur prior to the entire case
+statement, rather than within a branch of the case statement that might
+not be taken.  However, the abstraction comes with a penalty that it is
+no longer a quick copy, paste, and edit to get back to shell code.

+
+@node Quotation Rule Of Thumb
+@subsection Quotation Rule Of Thumb
+
+To conclude, the quotation rule of thumb is:
+
+@center @emph{One pair of quotes per pair of parentheses.}
+
+Never over-quote, never under-quote, in particular in the definition of
+macros.  In the few places where the macros need to use brackets
+(usually in C program text or regular expressions), properly quote
+@emph{the arguments}!
+
+It is common to read Autoconf programs with snippets like:
+
+@example
+AC_TRY_LINK(
+changequote(<<, >>)dnl
+<<#include <time.h>
+#ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+#endif>>,
+changequote([, ])dnl
+[atoi (*tzname);], ac_cv_var_tzname=yes, ac_cv_var_tzname=no)
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+which is incredibly useless since @code{AC_TRY_LINK} is @emph{already}
+double quoting, so you just need:
+
+@example
+AC_TRY_LINK(
+[#include <time.h>
+#ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+#endif],
+            [atoi (*tzname);],
+            [ac_cv_var_tzname=yes],
+            [ac_cv_var_tzname=no])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The M4-fluent reader might note that these two examples are rigorously
+equivalent, since M4 swallows both the @samp{changequote(<<, >>)}
+and @samp{<<} @samp{>>} when it @dfn{collects} the arguments: these
+quotes are not part of the arguments!
+
+Simplified, the example above is just doing this:
+
+@example
+changequote(<<, >>)dnl
+<<[]>>
+changequote([, ])dnl
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+instead of simply:
+
+@example
+[[]]
+@end example
+
+With macros that do not double quote their arguments (which is the
+rule), double-quote the (risky) literals:
+
+@example
+AC_LINK_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
+[[#include <time.h>
+#ifndef tzname /* For SGI.  */
+extern char *tzname[]; /* RS6000 and others reject char **tzname.  */
+#endif]],
+                                [atoi (*tzname);])],
+               [ac_cv_var_tzname=yes],
+               [ac_cv_var_tzname=no])
+@end example
+
+Please note that the macro @code{AC_TRY_LINK} is obsolete, so you really
+should be using @code{AC_LINK_IFELSE} instead.
+
+@xref{Quadrigraphs}, for what to do if you run into a hopeless case
+where quoting does not suffice.
+
+When you create a @command{configure} script using newly written macros,
+examine it carefully to check whether you need to add more quotes in
+your macros.  If one or more words have disappeared in the M4
+output, you need more quotes.  When in doubt, quote.
+
+However, it's also possible to put on too many layers of quotes.  If
+this happens, the resulting @command{configure} script may contain
+unexpanded macros.  The @command{autoconf} program checks for this problem
+by looking for the string @samp{AC_} in @file{configure}.  However, this
+heuristic does not work in general: for example, it does not catch
+overquoting in @code{AC_DEFINE} descriptions.

+@file{config.h.in}, @command{autoreconf} to determine what
+GNU Build System components are used, @command{automake} to
+``parse'' @file{configure.ac} etc.  To avoid recomputation,
+traces are cached while performing regular expansion,
+and conversely.  This cache is (actually, the caches are) stored in
+the directory @file{autom4te.cache}.  @emph{It can safely be removed}
+at any moment (especially if for some reason @command{autom4te}
+considers it trashed).
+
+@table @option

+@end table
+
+@sp 1
+
+Because traces are so important to the GNU Build System,
+@command{autom4te} provides high level tracing features as compared to
+M4, and helps exploiting the cache:
+
+@table @option
+@item --trace=@var{macro}[:@var{format}]
+@itemx -t @var{macro}[:@var{format}]
+Trace the invocations of @var{macro} according to the @var{format}.
+Multiple @option{--trace} arguments can be used to list several macros.
+Multiple @option{--trace} arguments for a single macro are not
+cumulative; instead, you should just make @var{format} as long as
+needed.
+
+The @var{format} is a regular string, with newlines if desired, and
+several special escape codes.  It defaults to @samp{$f:$l:$n:$%}.  It can

+@item $$
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+The character @samp{$}.
+
+@item $f
+The file name from which @var{macro} is called.
+
+@item $l
+The line number from which @var{macro} is called.
+
+@item $d
+The depth of the @var{macro} call.  This is an M4 technical detail that
+you probably don't want to know about.
+
+@item $n
+The name of the @var{macro}.
+
+@item $@var{num}
+The @var{num}th argument of the call to @var{macro}.
+
+@item $@@
+@itemx $@var{sep}@@
+@itemx $@{@var{separator}@}@@
+All the arguments passed to @var{macro}, separated by the character
+@var{sep} or the string @var{separator} (@samp{,} by default).  Each
+argument is quoted, i.e., enclosed in a pair of square brackets.

+As above, but the arguments are not quoted.
+

+As above, but the arguments are not quoted, all new line characters in
+the arguments are smashed, and the default separator is @samp{:}.
+
+The escape @samp{$%} produces single-line trace outputs (unless you put
+newlines in the @samp{separator}), while @samp{$@@} and @samp{$*} do
+not.
+@end table
+
+@xref{autoconf Invocation}, for examples of trace uses.
+
+@item --preselect=@var{macro}
+@itemx -p @var{macro}
+Cache the traces of @var{macro}, but do not enable traces.  This is
+especially important to save CPU cycles in the future.  For instance,
+when invoked, @command{autoconf} preselects all the macros that
+@command{autoheader}, @command{automake}, @command{autoreconf}, etc.,
+trace, so that running @command{m4} is not needed to trace them: the

+additionally reads @file{aclocal.m4}.
+@end table
+
+@item --prepend-include=@var{dir}

+Prepend directory @var{dir} to the search path.  This is used to include
+the language-specific files before any third-party macros.
+
+@end table
+
+@cindex @file{autom4te.cfg}
+As an example, if Autoconf is installed in its default location,
+@file{/usr/local}, the command @samp{autom4te -l m4sugar foo.m4} is

+  m4sugar/m4sugar.m4f --warnings syntax foo.m4
+@end example
+

+Recursive expansion applies here: the command @samp{autom4te -l m4sh foo.m4}
+is the same as @samp{autom4te --language M4sugar m4sugar/m4sh.m4f
+foo.m4}, i.e.:
+
+@example

+One can customize @command{autom4te} via @file{~/.autom4te.cfg} (i.e.,
+as found in the user home directory), and @file{./.autom4te.cfg} (i.e.,
+as found in the directory from which @command{autom4te} is run).  The
+order is first reading @file{autom4te.cfg}, then @file{~/.autom4te.cfg},
+then @file{./.autom4te.cfg}, and finally the command line arguments.
+
+In these text files, comments are introduced with @code{#}, and empty
+lines are ignored.  Customization is performed on a per-language basis,
+wrapped in between a @samp{begin-language: "@var{language}"},
+@samp{end-language: "@var{language}"} pair.
+
+Customizing a language stands for appending options (@pxref{autom4te

+@var{arguments}}.  You may use the traditional shell syntax to quote the
+@var{arguments}.

+M4sugar reserves the macro namespace @samp{^_m4_} for internal use, and

+
+@defmac __file__

+@MSindex __line__
+All M4 macros starting with @samp{__} retain their original name: for
+example, no @code{m4__file__} is defined.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac __oline__
+@MSindex __oline__
+This is not technically a macro, but a feature of Autom4te.  The
+sequence @code{__oline__} can be used similarly to the other m4sugar
+location macros, but rather than expanding to the location of the input
+file, it is translated to the line number where it appears in the output
+file after all other M4 expansions.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac dnl
+@MSindex dnl
+This macro kept its original name: no @code{m4_dnl} is defined.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_bpatsubst (@var{string}, @var{regexp}, @ovar{replacement})
+@msindex{bpatsubst}
+This macro corresponds to @code{patsubst}.  The name @code{m4_patsubst}
+is kept for future versions of M4sugar, once GNU M4 2.0 is
+released and supports extended regular expression syntax.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_bregexp (@var{string}, @var{regexp}, @ovar{replacement})
+@msindex{bregexp}
+This macro corresponds to @code{regexp}.  The name @code{m4_regexp}
+is kept for future versions of M4sugar, once GNU M4 2.0 is
+released and supports extended regular expression syntax.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_copy (@var{source}, @var{dest})
+@defmacx m4_copy_force (@var{source}, @var{dest})
+@defmacx m4_rename (@var{source}, @var{dest})
+@defmacx m4_rename_force (@var{source}, @var{dest})
+@msindex{copy}
+@msindex{copy_force}
+@msindex{rename}
+@msindex{rename_force}
+These macros aren't directly builtins, but are closely related to
+@code{m4_pushdef} and @code{m4_defn}.  @code{m4_copy} and
+@code{m4_rename} ensure that @var{dest} is undefined, while
+@code{m4_copy_force} and @code{m4_rename_force} overwrite any existing
+definition.  All four macros then proceed to copy the entire pushdef
+stack of definitions of @var{source} over to @var{dest}.  @code{m4_copy}
+and @code{m4_copy_force} preserve the source (including in the special
+case where @var{source} is undefined), while @code{m4_rename} and
+@code{m4_rename_force} undefine the original macro name (making it an
+error to rename an undefined @var{source}).
+
+Note that attempting to invoke a renamed macro might not work, since the
+macro may have a dependence on helper macros accessed via composition of
+@samp{$0} but that were not also renamed; likewise, other macros may
+have a hard-coded dependence on @var{source} and could break if
+@var{source} has been deleted.  On the other hand, it is always safe to
+rename a macro to temporarily move it out of the way, then rename it
+back later to restore original semantics.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_defn (@var{macro}@dots{})
+@msindex{defn}
+This macro fails if @var{macro} is not defined, even when using older
+versions of M4 that did not warn.  See @code{m4_undefine}.
+Unfortunately, in order to support these older versions of M4, there are
+some situations involving unbalanced quotes where concatenating multiple
+macros together will work in newer M4 but not in m4sugar; use
+quadrigraphs to work around this.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_divert (@var{diversion})
+@msindex{divert}
+M4sugar relies heavily on diversions, so rather than behaving as a
+primitive, @code{m4_divert} behaves like:
+@example
+m4_divert_pop()m4_divert_push([@var{diversion}])
+@end example
+@noindent
+@xref{Diversion support}, for more details about the use of the
+diversion stack.  In particular, this implies that @var{diversion}
+should be a named diversion rather than a raw number.  But be aware that
+it is seldom necessary to explicitly change the diversion stack, and
+that when done incorrectly, it can lead to syntactically invalid
+scripts.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_dumpdef (@var{name}@dots{})
+@defmacx m4_dumpdefs (@var{name}@dots{})
+@msindex{dumpdef}
+@msindex{dumpdefs}
+@code{m4_dumpdef} is like the M4 builtin, except that this version
+requires at least one argument, output always goes to standard error
+rather than the current debug file, no sorting is done on multiple
+arguments, and an error is issued if any
+@var{name} is undefined.  @code{m4_dumpdefs} is a convenience macro that
+calls @code{m4_dumpdef} for all of the
+@code{m4_pushdef} stack of definitions, starting with the current, and
+silently does nothing if @var{name} is undefined.
+
+Unfortunately, due to a limitation in M4 1.4.x, any macro defined as a
+builtin is output as the empty string.  This behavior is rectified by
+using M4 1.6 or newer.  However, this behavior difference means that
+@code{m4_dumpdef} should only be used while developing m4sugar macros,
+and never in the final published form of a macro.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_esyscmd_s (@var{command})
+@msindex{esyscmd_s}
+Like @code{m4_esyscmd}, this macro expands to the result of running
+@var{command} in a shell.  The difference is that any trailing newlines
+are removed, so that the output behaves more like shell command
+substitution.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_exit (@var{exit-status})
+@msindex{exit}
+This macro corresponds to @code{m4exit}.

+  @var{string-3}, @var{string-4}, @var{equal-2}, @dots{}, @ovar{not-equal})
+@msindex{if}
+This macro corresponds to @code{ifelse}.  @var{string-1} and
+@var{string-2} are compared literally, so usually one of the two
+arguments is passed unquoted.  @xref{Conditional constructs}, for more

+@msindex{sinclude}
+Like the M4 builtins, but warn against multiple inclusions of @var{file}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_mkstemp (@var{template})
+@defmacx m4_maketemp (@var{template})
+@msindex{maketemp}
+@msindex{mkstemp}
+Posix requires @code{maketemp} to replace the trailing @samp{X}
+characters in @var{template} with the process id, without regards to the
+existence of a file by that name, but this a security hole.  When this
+was pointed out to the Posix folks, they agreed to invent a new macro
+@code{mkstemp} that always creates a uniquely named file, but not all
+versions of GNU M4 support the new macro.  In M4sugar,
+@code{m4_maketemp} and @code{m4_mkstemp} are synonyms for each other,
+and both have the secure semantics regardless of which macro the
+underlying M4 provides.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_popdef (@var{macro}@dots{})
+@msindex{popdef}
+This macro fails if @var{macro} is not defined, even when using older
+versions of M4 that did not warn.  See @code{m4_undefine}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_undefine (@var{macro}@dots{})
+@msindex{undefine}
+This macro fails if @var{macro} is not defined, even when using older
+versions of M4 that did not warn.  Use
+
+@example
+m4_ifdef([@var{macro}], [m4_undefine([@var{macro}])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+if you are not sure whether @var{macro} is defined.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_undivert (@var{diversion}@dots{})
+@msindex{undivert}
+Unlike the M4 builtin, at least one @var{diversion} must be specified.
+Also, since the M4sugar diversion stack prefers named
+diversions, the use of @code{m4_undivert} to include files is risky.
+@xref{Diversion support}, for more details about the use of the
+diversion stack.  But be aware that it is seldom necessary to explicitly
+change the diversion stack, and that when done incorrectly, it can lead
+to syntactically invalid scripts.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_wrap (@var{text})
+@defmacx m4_wrap_lifo (@var{text})
+@msindex{wrap}
+@msindex{wrap_lifo}
+These macros correspond to @code{m4wrap}.  Posix requires arguments of
+multiple wrap calls to be reprocessed at EOF in the same order
+as the original calls (first-in, first-out).  GNU M4 versions
+through 1.4.10, however, reprocess them in reverse order (last-in,
+first-out).  Both orders are useful, therefore, you can rely on
+@code{m4_wrap} to provide FIFO semantics and @code{m4_wrap_lifo} for
+LIFO semantics, regardless of the underlying GNU M4 version.
+
+Unlike the GNU M4 builtin, these macros only recognize one
+argument, and avoid token pasting between consecutive invocations.  On
+the other hand, nested calls to @code{m4_wrap} from within wrapped text
+work just as in the builtin.

+@node Diagnostic Macros
+@subsection Diagnostic messages from M4sugar
+@cindex Messages, from @command{M4sugar}
+
+When macros statically diagnose abnormal situations, benign or fatal,
+they should report them using these macros.  For issuing dynamic issues,
+i.e., when @command{configure} is run, see @ref{Printing Messages}.
+
+@defmac m4_assert (@var{expression}, @dvar{exit-status, 1})
+@msindex{assert}
+Assert that the arithmetic @var{expression} evaluates to non-zero.
+Otherwise, issue a fatal error, and exit @command{autom4te} with
+@var{exit-status}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_errprintn (@var{message})

+
+
+@node Diversion support
+@subsection Diversion support
+
+M4sugar makes heavy use of diversions under the hood, because it is
+often the case that
+text that must appear early in the output is not discovered until late
+in the input.  Additionally, some of the topological sorting algorithms
+used in resolving macro dependencies use diversions.  However, most
+macros should not need to change diversions directly, but rather rely on
+higher-level M4sugar macros to manage diversions transparently.  If you
+change diversions improperly, you risk generating a syntactically
+invalid script, because an incorrect diversion will violate assumptions
+made by many macros about whether prerequisite text has been previously
+output.  In short, if you manually change the diversion, you should not
+expect any macros provided by the Autoconf package to work until you
+have restored the diversion stack back to its original state.
+
+In the rare case that it is necessary to write a macro that explicitly
+outputs text to a different diversion, it is important to be aware of an
+M4 limitation regarding diversions: text only goes to a diversion if it
+is not part of argument collection.  Therefore, any macro that changes
+the current diversion cannot be used as an unquoted argument to another
+macro, but must be expanded at the top level.  The macro
+@code{m4_expand} will diagnose any attempt to change diversions, since
+it is generally useful only as an argument to another macro.  The
+following example shows what happens when diversion manipulation is
+attempted within macro arguments:
+
+@example
+m4_do([normal text]
+m4_divert_push([KILL])unwanted[]m4_divert_pop([KILL])
+[m4_divert_push([KILL])discarded[]m4_divert_pop([KILL])])dnl
+@result{}normal text
+@result{}unwanted
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Notice that the unquoted text @code{unwanted} is output, even though it
+was processed while the current diversion was @code{KILL}, because it
+was collected as part of the argument to @code{m4_do}.  However, the
+text @code{discarded} disappeared as desired, because the diversion
+changes were single-quoted, and were not expanded until the top-level
+rescan of the output of @code{m4_do}.
+
+To make diversion management easier, M4sugar uses the concept of named
+diversions.  Rather than using diversion numbers directly, it is nicer
+to associate a name with each diversion.  The diversion number associated
+with a particular diversion name is an implementation detail, and a
+syntax warning is issued if a diversion number is used instead of a
+name.  In general, you should not output text
+to a named diversion until after calling the appropriate initialization
+routine for your language (@code{m4_init}, @code{AS_INIT},
+@code{AT_INIT}, @dots{}), although there are some exceptions documented
+below.
+
+M4sugar defines two named diversions.
+@table @code
+@item KILL
+Text written to this diversion is discarded.  This is the default
+diversion once M4sugar is initialized.
+@item GROW
+This diversion is used behind the scenes by topological sorting macros,
+such as @code{AC_REQUIRE}.
+@end table
+
+M4sh adds several more named diversions.
+@table @code
+@item BINSH
+This diversion is reserved for the @samp{#!} interpreter line.
+@item HEADER-REVISION
+This diversion holds text from @code{AC_REVISION}.
+@item HEADER-COMMENT
+This diversion holds comments about the purpose of a file.
+@item HEADER-COPYRIGHT
+This diversion is managed by @code{AC_COPYRIGHT}.
+@item M4SH-SANITIZE
+This diversion contains M4sh sanitization code, used to ensure M4sh is
+executing in a reasonable shell environment.
+@item M4SH-INIT
+This diversion contains M4sh initialization code, initializing variables
+that are required by other M4sh macros.
+@item BODY
+This diversion contains the body of the shell code, and is the default
+diversion once M4sh is initialized.
+@end table
+
+Autotest inherits diversions from M4sh, and changes the default
+diversion from @code{BODY} back to @code{KILL}.  It also adds several
+more named diversions, with the following subset designed for developer
+use.
+@table @code
+@item PREPARE_TESTS
+This diversion contains initialization sequences which are executed
+after @file{atconfig} and @file{atlocal}, and after all command line
+arguments have been parsed, but prior to running any tests.  It can be
+used to set up state that is required across all tests.  This diversion
+will work even before @code{AT_INIT}.
+@end table
+
+Autoconf inherits diversions from M4sh, and adds the following named
+diversions which developers can utilize.
+@table @code
+@item DEFAULTS
+This diversion contains shell variable assignments to set defaults that
+must be in place before arguments are parsed.  This diversion is placed
+early enough in @file{configure} that it is unsafe to expand any
+autoconf macros into this diversion.
+@item HELP_ENABLE
+If @code{AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER} was used, then text placed in this
+diversion will be included as part of a quoted here-doc providing all of
+the @option{--help} output of @file{configure} related to options
+created by @code{AC_ARG_WITH} and @code{AC_ARG_ENABLE}.
+@item INIT_PREPARE
+This diversion occurs after all command line options have been parsed,
+but prior to the main body of the @file{configure} script.  This
+diversion is the last chance to insert shell code such as variable
+assignments or shell function declarations that will used by the
+expansion of other macros.
+@end table
+
+For now, the remaining named diversions of Autoconf, Autoheader, and
+Autotest are not documented.  In other words,
+intentionally outputting text into an undocumented diversion is subject
+to breakage in a future release of Autoconf.
+
+@defmac m4_cleardivert (@var{diversion}@dots{})
+@msindex{cleardivert}
+Permanently discard any text that has been diverted into
+@var{diversion}.
+@end defmac

+Similar to @code{m4_divert_text}, except that @var{content} is only

+@code{m4_divert_once} has been called with its particular arguments.

+
+@defmac m4_divert_pop (@ovar{diversion})
+@msindex{divert_pop}
+If provided, check that the current diversion is indeed @var{diversion}.

+error if an attempt is made to pop beyond the initial m4sugar diversion
+of @code{KILL}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_divert_push (@var{diversion})
+@msindex{divert_push}
+Remember the former diversion on the diversion stack, and output
+subsequent text into @var{diversion}.  M4sugar maintains a diversion
+stack, and issues an error if there is not a matching pop for every
+push.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_divert_text (@var{diversion}, @ovar{content})
+@msindex{divert_text}
+Output @var{content} and a newline into @var{diversion}, without
+affecting the current diversion.  Shorthand for:
+@example
+m4_divert_push([@var{diversion}])@var{content}
+m4_divert_pop([@var{diversion}])dnl
+@end example
+
+One use of @code{m4_divert_text} is to develop two related macros, where
+macro @samp{MY_A} does the work, but adjusts what work is performed
+based on whether the optional macro @samp{MY_B} has also been expanded.
+Of course, it is possible to use @code{AC_BEFORE} within @code{MY_A} to
+require that @samp{MY_B} occurs first, if it occurs at all.  But this
+imposes an ordering restriction on the user; it would be nicer if macros
+@samp{MY_A} and @samp{MY_B} can be invoked in either order.  The trick
+is to let @samp{MY_B} leave a breadcrumb in an early diversion, which
+@samp{MY_A} can then use to determine whether @samp{MY_B} has been
+expanded.
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([MY_A],
+[# various actions
+if test -n "$b_was_used"; then
+  # extra action
+fi])
+AC_DEFUN([MY_B],
+[AC_REQUIRE([MY_A])dnl
+m4_divert_text([INIT_PREPARE], [b_was_used=true])])

+@node Conditional constructs
+@subsection Conditional constructs
+
+The following macros provide additional conditional constructs as
+convenience wrappers around @code{m4_if}.
+
+@defmac m4_bmatch (@var{string}, @var{regex-1}, @var{value-1}, @
+  @ovar{regex-2}, @ovar{value-2}, @dots{}, @ovar{default})
+@msindex{bmatch}
+The string @var{string} is repeatedly compared against a series of
+@var{regex} arguments; if a match is found, the expansion is the
+corresponding @var{value}, otherwise, the macro moves on to the next
+@var{regex}.  If no @var{regex} match, then the result is the optional
+@var{default}, or nothing.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_bpatsubsts (@var{string}, @var{regex-1}, @var{subst-1}, @
+  @ovar{regex-2}, @ovar{subst-2}, @dots{})
+@msindex{bpatsubsts}
+The string @var{string} is altered by @var{regex-1} and @var{subst-1},
+as if by:
+@example
+m4_bpatsubst([[@var{string}]], [@var{regex}], [@var{subst}])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The result of the substitution is then passed through the next set of
+@var{regex} and @var{subst}, and so forth.  An empty @var{subst} implies
+deletion of any matched portions in the current string.  Note that this
+macro over-quotes @var{string}; this behavior is intentional, so that
+the result of each step of the recursion remains as a quoted string.
+However, it means that anchors (@samp{^} and @samp{$} in the @var{regex}
+will line up with the extra quotations, and not the characters of the
+original string.  The overquoting is removed after the final
+substitution.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_case (@var{string}, @var{value-1}, @var{if-value-1}, @
+  @ovar{value-2}, @ovar{if-value-2}, @dots{}, @ovar{default})
+@msindex{case}
+Test @var{string} against multiple @var{value} possibilities, resulting
+in the first @var{if-value} for a match, or in the optional
+@var{default}.  This is shorthand for:
+@example
+m4_if([@var{string}], [@var{value-1}], [@var{if-value-1}],
+      [@var{string}], [@var{value-2}], [@var{if-value-2}], @dots{},
+      [@var{default}])
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_cond (@var{test-1}, @var{value-1}, @var{if-value-1}, @
+  @ovar{test-2}, @ovar{value-2}, @ovar{if-value-2}, @dots{}, @ovar{default})
+@msindex{cond}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Similar to @code{m4_if},
+except that each @var{test} is expanded only when it is encountered.
+This is useful for short-circuiting expensive tests; while @code{m4_if}
+requires all its strings to be expanded up front before doing
+comparisons, @code{m4_cond} only expands a @var{test} when all earlier
+tests have failed.
+
+For an example, these two sequences give the same result, but in the
+case where @samp{$1} does not contain a backslash, the @code{m4_cond}
+version only expands @code{m4_index} once, instead of five times, for
+faster computation if this is a common case for @samp{$1}.  Notice that
+every third argument is unquoted for @code{m4_if}, and quoted for
+@code{m4_cond}:
+
+@example
+m4_if(m4_index([$1], [\]), [-1], [$2],
+      m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\\]) >= 0), [1], [$2],
+      m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\$]) >= 0), [1], [$2],
+      m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\`]) >= 0), [1], [$3],
+      m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\"]) >= 0), [1], [$3],
+      [$2])
+m4_cond([m4_index([$1], [\])], [-1], [$2],
+        [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\\]) >= 0)], [1], [$2],
+        [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\$]) >= 0)], [1], [$2],
+        [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\`]) >= 0)], [1], [$3],
+        [m4_eval(m4_index([$1], [\"]) >= 0)], [1], [$3],
+        [$2])

+@msindex{default}
+@msindex{default_quoted}
+@msindex{default_nblank}
+@msindex{default_nblank_quoted}
+If @var{expr-1} contains text, use it.  Otherwise, select @var{expr-2}.
+@code{m4_default} expands the result, while @code{m4_default_quoted}
+does not.  Useful for providing a fixed default if the expression that
+results in @var{expr-1} would otherwise be empty.  The difference
+between @code{m4_default} and @code{m4_default_nblank} is whether an
+argument consisting of just blanks (space, tab, newline) is
+significant.  When using the expanding versions, note that an argument
+may contain text but still expand to an empty string.

+@node Looping constructs
+@subsection Looping constructs
+
+The following macros are useful in implementing recursive algorithms in
+M4, including loop operations.  An M4 list is formed by quoting a list
+of quoted elements; generally the lists are comma-separated, although
+@code{m4_foreach_w} is whitespace-separated.  For example, the list
+@samp{[[a], [b,c]]} contains two elements: @samp{[a]} and @samp{[b,c]}.
+It is common to see lists with unquoted elements when those elements are
+not likely to be macro names, as in @samp{[fputc_unlocked,
+fgetc_unlocked]}.
+
+Although not generally recommended, it is possible for quoted lists to
+have side effects; all side effects are expanded only once, and prior to
+visiting any list element.  On the other hand, the fact that unquoted
+macros are expanded exactly once means that macros without side effects
+can be used to generate lists.  For example,
+
+@example
+m4_foreach([i], [[1], [2], [3]m4_errprintn([hi])], [i])
+@error{}hi
+@result{}123
+m4_define([list], [[1], [2], [3]])
+@result{}
+m4_foreach([i], [list], [i])
+@result{}123
+@end example
+
+@defmac m4_argn (@var{n}, @ovar{arg}@dots{})
+@msindex{argn}
+Extracts argument @var{n} (larger than 0) from the remaining arguments.
+If there are too few arguments, the empty string is used.  For any
+@var{n} besides 1, this is more efficient than the similar
+@samp{m4_car(m4_shiftn([@var{n}], [], [@var{arg}@dots{}]))}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_car (@var{arg}@dots{})
+@msindex{car}
+Expands to the quoted first @var{arg}.  Can be used with @code{m4_cdr}
+to recursively iterate
+through a list.  Generally, when using quoted lists of quoted elements,
+@code{m4_car} should be called without any extra quotes.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_cdr (@var{arg}@dots{})
+@msindex{cdr}
+Expands to a quoted list of all but the first @var{arg}, or the empty
+string if there was only one argument.  Generally, when using quoted
+lists of quoted elements, @code{m4_cdr} should be called without any
+extra quotes.
+
+For example, this is a simple implementation of @code{m4_map}; note how
+each iteration checks for the end of recursion, then merely applies the
+first argument to the first element of the list, then repeats with the
+rest of the list.  (The actual implementation in M4sugar is a bit more
+involved, to gain some speed and share code with @code{m4_map_sep}, and
+also to avoid expanding side effects in @samp{$2} twice).
+@example
+m4_define([m4_map], [m4_ifval([$2],
+  [m4_apply([$1], m4_car($2))[]$0([$1], m4_cdr($2))])])dnl
+m4_map([ m4_eval], [[[1]], [[1+1]], [[10],[16]]])
+@result{} 1 2 a
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_for (@var{var}, @var{first}, @var{last}, @ovar{step}, @
+  @var{expression})
+@msindex{for}
+Loop over the numeric values between @var{first} and @var{last}
+including bounds by increments of @var{step}.  For each iteration,
+expand @var{expression} with the numeric value assigned to @var{var}.
+If @var{step} is omitted, it defaults to @samp{1} or @samp{-1} depending
+on the order of the limits.  If given, @var{step} has to match this
+order.  The number of iterations is determined independently from
+definition of @var{var}; iteration cannot be short-circuited or
+lengthened by modifying @var{var} from within @var{expression}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_foreach (@var{var}, @var{list}, @var{expression})
+@msindex{foreach}
+Loop over the comma-separated M4 list @var{list}, assigning each value
+to @var{var}, and expand @var{expression}.  The following example
+outputs two lines:
+
+@example
+m4_foreach([myvar], [[foo], [bar, baz]],
+           [echo myvar
+])dnl
+@result{}echo foo
+@result{}echo bar, baz
+@end example
+
+Note that for some forms of @var{expression}, it may be faster to use
+@code{m4_map_args}.
+@end defmac
+
+@anchor{m4_foreach_w}
+@defmac m4_foreach_w (@var{var}, @var{list}, @var{expression})
+@msindex{foreach_w}
+Loop over the white-space-separated list @var{list}, assigning each value
+to @var{var}, and expand @var{expression}.  If @var{var} is only
+referenced once in @var{expression}, it is more efficient to use
+@code{m4_map_args_w}.
+
+The deprecated macro @code{AC_FOREACH} is an alias of
+@code{m4_foreach_w}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_map (@var{macro}, @var{list})
+@defmacx m4_mapall (@var{macro}, @var{list})

+@msindex{map}
+@msindex{mapall}
+@msindex{map_sep}
+@msindex{mapall_sep}
+Loop over the comma separated quoted list of argument descriptions in
+@var{list}, and invoke @var{macro} with the arguments.  An argument
+description is in turn a comma-separated quoted list of quoted elements,
+suitable for @code{m4_apply}.  The macros @code{m4_map} and
+@code{m4_map_sep} ignore empty argument descriptions, while
+@code{m4_mapall} and @code{m4_mapall_sep} invoke @var{macro} with no
+arguments.  The macros @code{m4_map_sep} and @code{m4_mapall_sep}
+additionally expand @var{separator} between invocations of @var{macro}.
+
+Note that @var{separator} is expanded, unlike in @code{m4_join}.  When
+separating output with commas, this means that the map result can be
+used as a series of arguments, by using a single-quoted comma as
+@var{separator}, or as a single string, by using a double-quoted comma.
+
+@example
+m4_map([m4_count], [])
+@result{}
+m4_map([ m4_count], [[],
+                     [[1]],

+@result{}1
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_map_args (@var{macro}, @var{arg}@dots{})
+@msindex{map_args}
+Repeatedly invoke @var{macro} with each successive @var{arg} as its only
+argument.  In the following example, three solutions are presented with
+the same expansion; the solution using @code{m4_map_args} is the most
+efficient.
+@example
+m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+m4_foreach([var], [[plain], [active]], [ m4_echo(m4_defn([var]))])
+@result{} plain active
+m4_map([ m4_echo], [[[plain]], [[active]]])
+@result{} plain active
+m4_map_args([ m4_echo], [plain], [active])
+@result{} plain active
+@end example
+
+In cases where it is useful to operate on additional parameters besides
+the list elements, the macro @code{m4_curry} can be used in @var{macro}
+to supply the argument currying necessary to generate the desired
+argument list.  In the following example, @code{list_add_n} is more
+efficient than @code{list_add_x}.  On the other hand, using
+@code{m4_map_args_sep} can be even more efficient.
+
+@example
+m4_define([list], [[1], [2], [3]])dnl
+m4_define([add], [m4_eval(([$1]) + ([$2]))])dnl
+dnl list_add_n(N, ARG...)

+common use of this macro is constructing a macro call, where the opening
+and closing parentheses are split between @var{pre} and @var{post}; in
+particular, @code{m4_map_args([@var{macro}], [@var{arg}])} is equivalent
+to @code{m4_map_args_sep([@var{macro}(], [)], [], [@var{arg}])}.  This
+macro provides the most efficient means for iterating over an arbitrary

+@code{m4_shiftn} performs @var{count} iterations of @code{m4_shift},
+along with validation that enough arguments were passed in to match the

+@msindex{stack_foreach_lifo}
+For each of the @code{m4_pushdef} definitions of @var{macro}, expand

+@code{m4_stack_foreach} starts with the oldest definition, while

+@var{action} should not push or pop definitions of @var{macro}, nor is

+Due to technical limitations, there are a few low-level m4sugar

+@var{macro} argument.
+
+@example
+m4_pushdef([a], [1])m4_pushdef([a], [2])dnl
+m4_stack_foreach([a], [ m4_incr])
+@result{} 2 3
+m4_stack_foreach_lifo([a], [ m4_curry([m4_substr], [abcd])])
+@result{} cd bcd
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_stack_foreach_sep (@var{macro}, @ovar{pre}, @ovar{post}, @ovar{sep})
+@defmacx m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo (@var{macro}, @ovar{pre}, @ovar{post}, @
+  @ovar{sep})
+@msindex{stack_foreach_sep}
+@msindex{stack_foreach_sep_lifo}
+Expand the sequence @code{@var{pre}[definition]@var{post}} for each
+@code{m4_pushdef} definition of @var{macro}, additionally expanding
+@var{sep} between definitions.  @code{m4_stack_foreach_sep} visits the
+oldest definition first, while @code{m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo} visits
+the current definition first.  This macro provides the most efficient
+means for iterating over a pushdef stack.  In particular,
+@code{m4_stack_foreach([@var{macro}], [@var{action}])} is short for
+@code{m4_stack_foreach_sep([@var{macro}], [@var{action}(], [)])}.
+@end defmac
+
+@node Evaluation Macros
+@subsection Evaluation Macros
+
+The following macros give some control over the order of the evaluation
+by adding or removing levels of quotes.
+
+@defmac m4_apply (@var{macro}, @var{list})
+@msindex{apply}
+Apply the elements of the quoted, comma-separated @var{list} as the
+arguments to @var{macro}.  If @var{list} is empty, invoke @var{macro}
+without arguments.  Note the difference between @code{m4_indir}, which
+expects its first argument to be a macro name but can use names that are
+otherwise invalid, and @code{m4_apply}, where @var{macro} can contain
+other text, but must end in a valid macro name.
+@example
+m4_apply([m4_count], [])
+@result{}0
+m4_apply([m4_count], [[]])
+@result{}1
+m4_apply([m4_count], [[1], [2]])
+@result{}2
+m4_apply([m4_join], [[|], [1], [2]])
+@result{}1|2
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_count (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{count}
+This macro returns the decimal count of the number of arguments it was
+passed.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_curry (@var{macro}, @var{arg}@dots{})
+@msindex{curry}
+This macro performs argument currying.  The expansion of this macro is
+another macro name that expects exactly one argument; that argument is
+then appended to the @var{arg} list, and then @var{macro} is expanded
+with the resulting argument list.
+
+@example
+m4_curry([m4_curry], [m4_reverse], [1])([2])([3])
+@result{}3, 2, 1
+@end example
+
+Unfortunately, due to a limitation in M4 1.4.x, it is not possible to
+pass the definition of a builtin macro as the argument to the output of
+@code{m4_curry}; the empty string is used instead of the builtin token.
+This behavior is rectified by using M4 1.6 or newer.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_do (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{do}
+This macro loops over its arguments and expands each @var{arg} in
+sequence.  Its main use is for readability; it allows the use of
+indentation and fewer @code{dnl} to result in the same expansion.  This
+macro guarantees that no expansion will be concatenated with subsequent
+text; to achieve full concatenation, use @code{m4_unquote(m4_join([],
+@var{arg@dots{}}))}.
+
+@example
+m4_define([ab],[1])m4_define([bc],[2])m4_define([abc],[3])dnl
+m4_do([a],[b])c
+@result{}abc
+m4_unquote(m4_join([],[a],[b]))c
+@result{}3
+m4_define([a],[A])m4_define([b],[B])m4_define([c],[C])dnl
+m4_define([AB],[4])m4_define([BC],[5])m4_define([ABC],[6])dnl
+m4_do([a],[b])c
+@result{}ABC
+m4_unquote(m4_join([],[a],[b]))c
+@result{}3
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_dquote (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{dquote}
+Return the arguments as a quoted list of quoted arguments.
+Conveniently, if there is just one @var{arg}, this effectively adds a
+level of quoting.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_dquote_elt (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{dquote_elt}
+Return the arguments as a series of double-quoted arguments.  Whereas
+@code{m4_dquote} returns a single argument, @code{m4_dquote_elt} returns
+as many arguments as it was passed.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_echo (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{echo}
+Return the arguments, with the same level of quoting.  Other than
+discarding whitespace after unquoted commas, this macro is a no-op.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_expand (@var{arg})
+@msindex{expand}
+Return the expansion of @var{arg} as a quoted string.  Whereas
+@code{m4_quote} is designed to collect expanded text into a single
+argument, @code{m4_expand} is designed to perform one level of expansion
+on quoted text.  One distinction is in the treatment of whitespace
+following a comma in the original @var{arg}.  Any time multiple
+arguments are collected into one with @code{m4_quote}, the M4 argument
+collection rules discard the whitespace.  However, with @code{m4_expand},
+whitespace is preserved, even after the expansion of macros contained in
+@var{arg}.  Additionally, @code{m4_expand} is able to expand text that
+would involve an unterminated comment, whereas expanding that same text
+as the argument to @code{m4_quote} runs into difficulty in finding the
+end of the argument.  Since manipulating diversions during argument
+collection is inherently unsafe, @code{m4_expand} issues an error if
+@var{arg} attempts to change the current diversion (@pxref{Diversion
+support}).
+
+@example
+m4_define([active], [ACT, IVE])dnl
+m4_define([active2], [[ACT, IVE]])dnl
+m4_quote(active, active)
+@result{}ACT,IVE,ACT,IVE
+m4_expand([active, active])
+@result{}ACT, IVE, ACT, IVE
+m4_quote(active2, active2)
+@result{}ACT, IVE,ACT, IVE
+m4_expand([active2, active2])
+@result{}ACT, IVE, ACT, IVE
+m4_expand([# m4_echo])
+@result{}# m4_echo
+m4_quote(# m4_echo)
+)
+@result{}# m4_echo)
+@result{}
+@end example
+
+Note that @code{m4_expand} cannot handle an @var{arg} that expands to
+literal unbalanced quotes, but that quadrigraphs can be used when
+unbalanced output is necessary.  Likewise, unbalanced parentheses should
+be supplied with double quoting or a quadrigraph.
+
+@example
+m4_define([pattern], [[!@@<:@@]])dnl
+m4_define([bar], [BAR])dnl
+m4_expand([case $foo in
+  m4_defn([pattern])@@:@}@@ bar ;;
+  *[)] blah ;;
+esac])
+@result{}case $foo in
+@result{}  [![]) BAR ;;
+@result{}  *) blah ;;
+@result{}esac
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_ignore (@dots{})
+@msindex{ignore}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expands to nothing,
+ignoring all of its arguments.  By itself, this isn't very useful.
+However, it can be used to conditionally ignore an arbitrary number of
+arguments, by deciding which macro name to apply to a list of arguments.
+@example
+dnl foo outputs a message only if [debug] is defined.
+m4_define([foo],
+[m4_ifdef([debug],[AC_MSG_NOTICE],[m4_ignore])([debug message])])
+@end example
+
+Note that for earlier versions of Autoconf, the macro @code{__gnu__} can
+serve the same purpose, although it is less readable.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_make_list (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{make_list}
+This macro exists to aid debugging of M4sugar algorithms.  Its net
+effect is similar to @code{m4_dquote}---it produces a quoted list of
+quoted arguments, for each @var{arg}.  The difference is that this
+version uses a comma-newline separator instead of just comma, to improve
+readability of the list; with the result that it is less efficient than
+@code{m4_dquote}.
+@example
+m4_define([zero],[0])m4_define([one],[1])m4_define([two],[2])dnl
+m4_dquote(zero, [one], [[two]])
+@result{}[0],[one],[[two]]
+m4_make_list(zero, [one], [[two]])
+@result{}[0],
+@result{}[one],
+@result{}[[two]]
+m4_foreach([number], m4_dquote(zero, [one], [[two]]), [ number])
+@result{} 0 1 two
+m4_foreach([number], m4_make_list(zero, [one], [[two]]), [ number])
+@result{} 0 1 two
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@c m4_noquote is too dangerous to document - it invokes macros that
+@c probably rely on @samp{[]} nested quoting for proper operation.  The
+@c user should generally prefer m4_unquote instead.
+
+@defmac m4_quote (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{quote}
+Return the arguments as a single entity, i.e., wrap them into a pair of
+quotes.  This effectively collapses multiple arguments into one,
+although it loses whitespace after unquoted commas in the process.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_reverse (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{reverse}
+Outputs each argument with the same level of quoting, but in reverse
+order, and with space following each comma for readability.
+
+@example
+m4_define([active], [ACT,IVE])
+@result{}
+m4_reverse(active, [active])
+@result{}active, IVE, ACT
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_unquote (@var{arg}, @dots{})
+@msindex{unquote}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  Expand each argument,
+separated by commas.  For a single @var{arg}, this effectively removes a
+layer of quoting, and @code{m4_unquote([@var{arg}])} is more efficient
+than the equivalent @code{m4_do([@var{arg}])}.  For multiple arguments,
+this results in an unquoted list of expansions.  This is commonly used
+with @code{m4_split}, in order to convert a single quoted list into a
+series of quoted elements.
+@end defmac
+
+The following example aims at emphasizing the difference between several
+scenarios: not using these macros, using @code{m4_defn}, using
+@code{m4_quote}, using @code{m4_dquote}, and using @code{m4_expand}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat example.m4}
+dnl Overquote, so that quotes are visible.
+m4_define([show], [$[]1 = [$1], $[]@@ = [$@@]])

+@node Text processing Macros
+@subsection String manipulation in M4
+
+The following macros may be used to manipulate strings in M4.  Many of
+the macros in this section intentionally result in quoted strings as
+output, rather than subjecting the arguments to further expansions.  As
+a result, if you are manipulating text that contains active M4
+characters, the arguments are passed with single quoting rather than
+double.
+
+@defmac m4_append (@var{macro-name}, @var{string}, @ovar{separator})
+@defmacx m4_append_uniq (@var{macro-name}, @var{string}, @ovar{separator} @
+  @ovar{if-uniq}, @ovar{if-duplicate})
+@msindex{append}
+@msindex{append_uniq}
+Redefine @var{macro-name} to its former contents with @var{separator}
+and @var{string} added at the end.  If @var{macro-name} was undefined
+before (but not if it was defined but empty), then no @var{separator} is
+added.  As of Autoconf 2.62, neither @var{string} nor @var{separator}
+are expanded during this macro; instead, they are expanded when
+@var{macro-name} is invoked.
+
+@code{m4_append} can be used to grow strings, and @code{m4_append_uniq}
+to grow strings without duplicating substrings.  Additionally,
+@code{m4_append_uniq} takes two optional parameters as of Autoconf 2.62;
+@var{if-uniq} is expanded if @var{string} was appended, and
+@var{if-duplicate} is expanded if @var{string} was already present.
+Also, @code{m4_append_uniq} warns if @var{separator} is not empty, but
+occurs within @var{string}, since that can lead to duplicates.
+
+Note that @code{m4_append} can scale linearly in the length of the final
+string, depending on the quality of the underlying M4 implementation,
+while @code{m4_append_uniq} has an inherent quadratic scaling factor.
+If an algorithm can tolerate duplicates in the final string, use the
+former for speed.  If duplicates must be avoided, consider using
+@code{m4_set_add} instead (@pxref{Set manipulation Macros}).
+
+@example
+m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+m4_append([sentence], [This is an])dnl
+m4_append([sentence], [ active ])dnl
+m4_append([sentence], [symbol.])dnl

+@defmac m4_append_uniq_w (@var{macro-name}, @var{strings})
+@msindex{append_uniq_w}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62.  It is similar to
+@code{m4_append_uniq}, but treats @var{strings} as a whitespace
+separated list of words to append, and only appends unique words.
+@var{macro-name} is updated with a single space between new words.
+@example
+m4_append_uniq_w([numbers], [1 1 2])dnl
+m4_append_uniq_w([numbers], [ 2 3 ])dnl
+numbers
+@result{}1 2 3
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_chomp (@var{string})
+@defmacx m4_chomp_all (@var{string})
+@msindex{chomp}
+@msindex{chomp_all}
+Output @var{string} in quotes, but without a trailing newline.  The
+macro @code{m4_chomp} is slightly faster, and removes at most one
+newline; the macro @code{m4_chomp_all} removes all consecutive trailing
+newlines.  Unlike @code{m4_flatten}, embedded newlines are left intact,
+and backslash does not influence the result.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_combine (@ovar{separator}, @var{prefix-list}, @ovar{infix}, @
+  @var{suffix-1}, @ovar{suffix-2}, @dots{})
+@msindex{combine}
+This macro produces a quoted string containing the pairwise combination
+of every element of the quoted, comma-separated @var{prefix-list}, and
+every element from the @var{suffix} arguments.  Each pairwise
+combination is joined with @var{infix} in the middle, and successive
+pairs are joined by @var{separator}.  No expansion occurs on any of the
+arguments.  No output occurs if either the @var{prefix} or @var{suffix}
+list is empty, but the lists can contain empty elements.
+@example
+m4_define([a], [oops])dnl
+m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b], [c]], [-], [1], [2], [3])
+@result{}a-1, a-2, a-3, b-1, b-2, b-3, c-1, c-2, c-3
+m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b]], [-])
+@result{}
+m4_combine([, ], [[a], [b]], [-], [])
+@result{}a-, b-

+@result{}-1, -2
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_escape (@var{string})
+@msindex{escape}
+Convert all instances of @samp{[}, @samp{]}, @samp{#}, and @samp{$}
+within @var{string} into their respective quadrigraphs.  The result is
+still a quoted string.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_flatten (@var{string})
+@msindex{flatten}
+Flatten @var{string} into a single line.  Delete all backslash-newline
+pairs, and replace all remaining newlines with a space.  The result is
+still a quoted string.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_join (@ovar{separator}, @var{args}@dots{})
+@defmacx m4_joinall (@ovar{separator}, @var{args}@dots{})
+@msindex{join}
+@msindex{joinall}
+Concatenate each @var{arg}, separated by @var{separator}.
+@code{joinall} uses every argument, while @code{join} omits empty
+arguments so that there are no back-to-back separators in the output.
+The result is a quoted string.
+@example
+m4_define([active], [ACTIVE])dnl
+m4_join([|], [one], [], [active], [two])
+@result{}one|active|two
+m4_joinall([|], [one], [], [active], [two])
+@result{}one||active|two
+@end example
+
+Note that if all you intend to do is join @var{args} with commas between
+them, to form a quoted list suitable for @code{m4_foreach}, it is more
+efficient to use @code{m4_dquote}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_newline (@ovar{text})
+@msindex{newline}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.62, and expands to a newline,
+followed by any @var{text}.
+It is primarily useful for maintaining macro formatting, and ensuring
+that M4 does not discard leading whitespace during argument collection.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_normalize (@var{string})
+@msindex{normalize}
+Remove leading and trailing spaces and tabs, sequences of
+backslash-then-newline, and replace multiple spaces, tabs, and newlines
+with a single space.  This is a combination of @code{m4_flatten} and
+@code{m4_strip}.  To determine if @var{string} consists only of bytes
+that would be removed by @code{m4_normalize}, you can use
+@code{m4_ifblank}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_re_escape (@var{string})
+@msindex{re_escape}
+Backslash-escape all characters in @var{string} that are active in
+regexps.
+@end defmac
+
+@c We cannot use @dvar because the macro expansion mistreats backslashes.
+@defmac m4_split (@var{string}, @r{[}@var{regexp} = @samp{[\t ]+}@r{]})
+@msindex{split}
+Split @var{string} into an M4 list of elements quoted by @samp{[} and
+@samp{]}, while keeping white space at the beginning and at the end.
+If @var{regexp} is given, use it instead of @samp{[\t ]+} for splitting.
+If @var{string} is empty, the result is an empty list.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_strip (@var{string})
+@msindex{strip}
+Strip whitespace from @var{string}.  Sequences of spaces and tabs are
+reduced to a single space, then leading and trailing spaces are removed.
+The result is still a quoted string.  Note that this does not interfere
+with newlines; if you want newlines stripped as well, consider
+@code{m4_flatten}, or do it all at once with @code{m4_normalize}.  To
+quickly test if @var{string} has only whitespace, use @code{m4_ifblank}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_text_box (@var{message}, @dvar{frame, -})
+@msindex{text_box}
+Add a text box around @var{message}, using @var{frame} as the border
+character above and below the message.  The @var{frame} argument must be
+a single byte, and does not support quadrigraphs.
+The frame correctly accounts for
+the subsequent expansion of @var{message}.  For example:
+@example
+m4_define([macro], [abc])dnl
+m4_text_box([macro])
+@result{}## --- ##
+@result{}## abc ##
+@result{}## --- ##
+@end example
+
+The @var{message} must contain balanced quotes and parentheses, although
+quadrigraphs can be used to work around this.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_text_wrap (@var{string}, @ovar{prefix}, @
+  @dvar{prefix1, @var{prefix}}, @dvar{width, 79})
+@msindex{text_wrap}
+Break @var{string} into a series of whitespace-separated words, then
+output those words separated by spaces, and wrapping lines any time the
+output would exceed @var{width} columns.  If given, @var{prefix1} begins
+the first line, and @var{prefix} begins all wrapped lines.  If
+@var{prefix1} is longer than @var{prefix}, then the first line consists
+of just @var{prefix1}.  If @var{prefix} is longer than @var{prefix1},
+padding is inserted so that the first word of @var{string} begins at the
+same indentation as all wrapped lines.  Note that using literal tab
+characters in any of the arguments will interfere with the calculation
+of width.  No expansions occur on @var{prefix}, @var{prefix1}, or the
+words of @var{string}, although quadrigraphs are recognized.
+
+For some examples:
+@example
+m4_text_wrap([Short string */], [   ], [/* ], [20])
+@result{}/* Short string */
+m4_text_wrap([Much longer string */], [   ], [/* ], [20])
+@result{}/* Much longer

+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_list_cmp (@var{list-1}, @var{list-2})

+pairing where the value from @var{list-1} is smaller, @samp{1} where the
+value from @var{list-2} is smaller, or @samp{0} if both lists have the
+same values.  If one list is shorter than the other, the remaining

+@msindex{version_compare}
+This macro was introduced in Autoconf 2.53, but had a number of
+usability limitations that were not lifted until Autoconf 2.62.  Compare
+the version strings @var{version-1} and @var{version-2}, and expand to
+@samp{-1} if @var{version-1} is smaller, @samp{0} if they are the same,
+or @samp{1} @var{version-2} is smaller.  Version strings must be a list
+of elements separated by @samp{.}, @samp{,} or @samp{-}, where each
+element is a number along with optional case-insensitive letters
+designating beta releases.  The comparison stops at the leftmost element
+that contains a difference, although a 0 element compares equal to a
+missing element.
+
+It is permissible to include commit identifiers in @var{version}, such
+as an abbreviated SHA1 of the commit, provided there is still a
+monotonically increasing prefix to allow for accurate version-based
+comparisons.  For example, this paragraph was written when the
+development snapshot of autoconf claimed to be at version
+@samp{2.61a-248-dc51}, or 248 commits after the 2.61a release, with an
+abbreviated commit identification of @samp{dc51}.

+@node Set manipulation Macros
+@subsection Set manipulation in M4
+@cindex Set manipulation
+@cindex Data structure, set
+@cindex Unordered set manipulation
+
+Sometimes, it is necessary to track a set of data, where the order does
+not matter and where there are no duplicates in the set.  The following
+macros facilitate set manipulations.  Each set is an opaque object,
+which can only be accessed via these basic operations.  The underlying
+implementation guarantees linear scaling for set creation, which is more
+efficient than using the quadratic @code{m4_append_uniq}.  Both set
+names and values can be arbitrary strings, except for unbalanced quotes.
+This implementation ties up memory for removed elements until the next
+operation that must traverse all the elements of a set; and although
+that may slow down some operations until the memory for removed elements
+is pruned, it still guarantees linear performance.
+
+@defmac m4_set_add (@var{set}, @var{value}, @ovar{if-uniq}, @ovar{if-dup})
+@msindex{set_add}
+Adds the string @var{value} as a member of set @var{set}.  Expand
+@var{if-uniq} if the element was added, or @var{if-dup} if it was
+previously in the set.  Operates in amortized constant time, so that set
+creation scales linearly.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_set_add_all (@var{set}, @var{value}@dots{})
+@msindex{set_add_all}
+Adds each @var{value} to the set @var{set}.  This is slightly more
+efficient than repeatedly invoking @code{m4_set_add}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_set_contains (@var{set}, @var{value}, @ovar{if-present}, @
+ @ovar{if-absent})
+@msindex{set_contains}
+Expands @var{if-present} if the string @var{value} is a member of
+@var{set}, otherwise @var{if-absent}.
+
+@example
+m4_set_contains([a], [1], [yes], [no])
+@result{}no
+m4_set_add([a], [1], [added], [dup])
+@result{}added
+m4_set_add([a], [1], [added], [dup])

+@defmacx m4_set_dump (@var{set}, @ovar{sep})
+@msindex{set_contents}
+@msindex{set_dump}
+Expands to a single string consisting of all the members of the set
+@var{set}, each separated by @var{sep}, which is not expanded.
+@code{m4_set_contents} leaves the elements in @var{set} but reclaims any
+memory occupied by removed elements, while @code{m4_set_dump} is a
+faster one-shot action that also deletes the set.  No provision is made
+for disambiguating members that contain a non-empty @var{sep} as a
+substring; use @code{m4_set_empty} to distinguish between an empty set
+and the set containing only the empty string.  The order of the output
+is unspecified; in the current implementation, part of the speed of
+@code{m4_set_dump} results from using a different output order than
+@code{m4_set_contents}.  These macros scale linearly in the size of the
+set before memory pruning, and @code{m4_set_contents([@var{set}],
+[@var{sep}])} is faster than
+@code{m4_joinall([@var{sep}]m4_set_listc([@var{set}]))}.
+
+@example
+m4_set_add_all([a], [1], [2], [3])

+@defmacx m4_set_union (@var{seta}, @var{setb})
+@msindex{set_difference}
+@msindex{set_intersection}
+@msindex{set_union}
+Compute the relation between @var{seta} and @var{setb}, and output the
+result as a list of quoted arguments without duplicates and with a
+leading comma.  Set difference selects the elements in @var{seta} but
+not @var{setb}, intersection selects only elements in both sets, and
+union selects elements in either set.  These actions are linear in the
+sum of the set sizes.  The leading comma is necessary to distinguish
+between no elements and the empty string as the only element.

+@var{variable}.  This macro is faster than the corresponding
+@code{m4_foreach([@var{variable}],
+m4_indir([m4_dquote]m4_set_listc([@var{set}])), [@var{action}])},
+although @code{m4_set_map} might be faster still.

+m4_set_contents([a])
+@result{}12345

+
+@defmac m4_set_list (@var{set})

+@msindex{set_list}
+@msindex{set_listc}
+Produce a list of arguments, where each argument is a quoted element
+from the set @var{set}.  The variant @code{m4_set_listc} is unambiguous,
+by adding a leading comma if there are any set elements, whereas the
+variant @code{m4_set_list} cannot distinguish between an empty set and a
+set containing only the empty string.  These can be directly used in
+macros that take multiple arguments, such as @code{m4_join} or
+@code{m4_set_add_all}, or wrapped by @code{m4_dquote} for macros that
+take a quoted list, such as @code{m4_map} or @code{m4_foreach}.  Any
+memory occupied by removed elements is reclaimed during these macros.
+
+@example
+m4_set_add_all([a], [1], [2], [3])

+@defmac m4_set_map (@var{set}, @var{action})
+@msindex{set_map}
+For each element in the set @var{set}, expand @var{action} with a single

+recursively lists the contents of @var{set} (although listing other sets
+is acceptable), or if it modifies the set in any way other than removing
+the element passed as an argument.  This macro is faster than either
+corresponding counterpart of

+@code{m4_set_foreach([@var{set}], [var],
+[@var{action}(m4_defn([var]))])}.  It is possible to use @code{m4_curry}
+if more than one argument is needed for @var{action}, although it is
+more efficient to use @code{m4_set_map_sep} in that case.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_set_map_sep (@var{set}, @ovar{pre}, @ovar{post}, @ovar{sep})
+@msindex{set_map_sep}
+For each element in the set @var{set}, expand
+@code{@var{pre}[element]@var{post}}, additionally expanding @var{sep}
+between elements.  Behavior is unspecified if the expansion recursively
+lists the contents of @var{set} (although listing other sets
+is acceptable), or if it modifies the set in any way other than removing
+the element visited by the expansion.  This macro provides the most
+efficient means for non-destructively visiting the elements of a set; in
+particular, @code{m4_set_map([@var{set}], [@var{action}])} is equivalent
+to @code{m4_set_map_sep([@var{set}], [@var{action}(], [)])}.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_set_remove (@var{set}, @var{value}, @ovar{if-present}, @

+@msindex{set_remove}
+If @var{value} is an element in the set @var{set}, then remove it and
+expand @var{if-present}.  Otherwise expand @var{if-absent}.  This macro
+operates in constant time so that multiple removals will scale linearly
+rather than quadratically; but when used outside of
+@code{m4_set_foreach} or @code{m4_set_map}, it leaves memory occupied
+until the set is later
+compacted by @code{m4_set_contents} or @code{m4_set_list}.  Several
+other set operations are then less efficient between the time of element
+removal and subsequent memory compaction, but still maintain their
+guaranteed scaling performance.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac m4_set_size (@var{set})
+@msindex{set_size}

+@node Forbidden Patterns
+@subsection Forbidden Patterns
+@cindex Forbidden patterns
+@cindex Patterns, forbidden
+
+M4sugar provides a means to define suspicious patterns, patterns
+describing tokens which should not be found in the output.  For
+instance, if an Autoconf @file{configure} script includes tokens such as
+@samp{AC_DEFINE}, or @samp{dnl}, then most probably something went
+wrong (typically a macro was not evaluated because of overquotation).
+
+M4sugar forbids all the tokens matching @samp{^_?m4_} and @samp{^dnl$}.
+Additional layers, such as M4sh and Autoconf, add additional forbidden
+patterns to the list.
+
+@defmac m4_pattern_forbid (@var{pattern})

+Declare that no token matching @var{pattern} must be found in the output.
+Comments are not checked; this can be a problem if, for instance, you
+have some macro left unexpanded after an @samp{#include}.  No consensus
+is currently found in the Autoconf community, as some people consider it
+should be valid to name macros in comments (which doesn't make sense to
+the authors of this documentation: input, such as macros, should be
+documented by @samp{dnl} comments; reserving @samp{#}-comments to

+@cindex debugging tips
+@cindex autom4te debugging tips
+@cindex m4sugar debugging tips
+At times, it is desirable to see what was happening inside m4, to see
+why output was not matching expectations.  However, post-processing done
+by @command{autom4te} means that directly using the m4 builtin
+@code{m4_traceon} is likely to interfere with operation.  Also, frequent
+diversion changes and the concept of forbidden tokens make it difficult
+to use @code{m4_defn} to generate inline comments in the final output.
+
+There are a couple of tools to help with this.  One is the use of the
+@option{--trace} option provided by @command{autom4te} (as well as each
+of the programs that wrap @command{autom4te}, such as
+@command{autoconf}), in order to inspect when a macro is called and with
+which arguments.  For example, when this paragraph was written, the
+autoconf version could be found by:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{autoconf --trace=AC_INIT}
+configure.ac:23:AC_INIT:GNU Autoconf:2.63b.95-3963:bug-autoconf@@gnu.org
+$ @kbd{autoconf --trace='AC_INIT:version is $2'}
+version is 2.63b.95-3963
+@end example
+
+Another trick is to print out the expansion of various m4 expressions to
+standard error or to an independent file, with no further m4 expansion,
+and without interfering with diversion changes or the post-processing
+done to standard output.  @code{m4_errprintn} shows a given expression
+on standard error.  For example, if you want to see the expansion of an
+autoconf primitive or of one of your autoconf macros, you can do it like
+this:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat <<\EOF > configure.ac}
+AC_INIT
+m4_errprintn([The definition of AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED:])
+m4_errprintn(m4_defn([AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED]))

+@asindex{ESCAPE}
+Expands to @var{string}, with any characters in @var{chars} escaped with
+a backslash (@samp{\}).  @var{chars} should be at most four bytes long,
+and only contain characters from the set @samp{`\"$}; however,
+characters may be safely listed more than once in @var{chars} for the
+sake of syntax highlighting editors.  The current implementation expands
+@var{string} after adding escapes; if @var{string} contains macro calls
+that in turn expand to text needing shell quoting, you can use
+@code{AS_ESCAPE(m4_dquote(m4_expand([string])))}.
+
+The default for @var{chars} (@samp{\"$`}) is the set of characters
+needing escapes when @var{string} will be used literally within double
+quotes.  One common variant is the set of characters to protect when
+@var{string} will be used literally within back-ticks or an unquoted
+here-document (@samp{\$`}).  Another common variant is @samp{""}, which can
+be used to form a double-quoted string containing the same expansions
+that would have occurred if @var{string} were expanded in an unquoted
+here-document; however, when using this variant, care must be taken that
+@var{string} does not use double quotes within complex variable
+expansions (such as @samp{$@{foo-`echo "hi"`@}}) that would be broken
+with improper escapes.
+
+This macro is often used with @code{AS_ECHO}.  For an example, observe
+the output generated by the shell code generated from this snippet:
+
+@example
+foo=bar
+AS_ECHO(["AS_ESCAPE(["$foo" = ])AS_ESCAPE(["$foo"], [""])"])
+@result{}"$foo" = "bar"

+@result{}a, \b
+@end example
+
+@comment Should we add AS_ESCAPE_SINGLE? If we do, we can optimize in
+@comment the case of @var{string} that does not contain '.
+To escape a string that will be placed within single quotes, use:

+@node Polymorphic Variables
+@section Support for indirect variable names
+@cindex variable name indirection
+@cindex polymorphic variable name
+@cindex indirection, variable name
+
+Often, it is convenient to write a macro that will emit shell code
+operating on a shell variable.  The simplest case is when the variable
+name is known.  But a more powerful idiom is writing shell code that can
+work through an indirection, where another variable or command
+substitution produces the name of the variable to actually manipulate.
+M4sh supports the notion of polymorphic shell variables, making it easy
+to write a macro that can deal with either literal or indirect variable
+names and output shell code appropriate for both use cases.  Behavior is
+undefined if expansion of an indirect variable does not result in a
+literal variable name.
+
+@defmac AS_LITERAL_IF (@var{expression}, @ovar{if-literal}, @ovar{if-not}, @
+  @dvar{if-simple-ref, @var{if-not}})
+@defmacx AS_LITERAL_WORD_IF (@var{expression}, @ovar{if-literal}, @
+  @ovar{if-not}, @dvar{if-simple-ref, @var{if-not}})
+@asindex{LITERAL_IF}
+@asindex{LITERAL_WORD_IF}
+If the expansion of @var{expression} is definitely a shell literal,
+expand @var{if-literal}.  If the expansion of @var{expression} looks
+like it might contain shell indirections (such as @code{$var} or
+@code{`expr`}), then @var{if-not} is expanded.  Sometimes, it is
+possible to output optimized code if @var{expression} consists only of
+shell variable expansions (such as @code{$@{var@}}), in which case
+@var{if-simple-ref} can be provided; but defaulting to @var{if-not}
+should always be safe.  @code{AS_LITERAL_WORD_IF} only expands
+@var{if-literal} if @var{expression} looks like a single shell word,
+containing no whitespace; while @code{AS_LITERAL_IF} allows whitespace
+in @var{expression}.
+
+In order to reduce the time spent recognizing whether an
+@var{expression} qualifies as a literal or a simple indirection, the
+implementation is somewhat conservative: @var{expression} must be a
+single shell word (possibly after stripping whitespace), consisting only
+of bytes that would have the same meaning whether unquoted or enclosed
+in double quotes (for example, @samp{a.b} results in @var{if-literal},
+even though it is not a valid shell variable name; while both @samp{'a'}
+and @samp{[$]} result in @var{if-not}, because they behave differently
+than @samp{"'a'"} and @samp{"[$]"}).  This macro can be used in contexts
+for recognizing portable file names (such as in the implementation of
+@code{AC_LIBSOURCE}), or coupled with some transliterations for forming
+valid variable names (such as in the implementation of @code{AS_TR_SH},
+which uses an additional @code{m4_translit} to convert @samp{.} to
+@samp{_}).
+
+This example shows how to read the contents of the shell variable
+@code{bar}, exercising all three arguments to @code{AS_LITERAL_IF}.  It
+results in a script that will output the line @samp{hello} three times.
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([MY_ACTION],
+[AS_LITERAL_IF([$1],
+  [echo "$$1"],
+@c $$
+  [AS_VAR_COPY([var], [$1])
+   echo "$var"],
+  [eval 'echo "$'"$1"\"])])
+foo=bar bar=hello
+MY_ACTION([bar])
+MY_ACTION([`echo bar`])
+MY_ACTION([$foo])
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AS_VAR_APPEND (@var{var}, @var{text})
+@asindex{VAR_APPEND}
+Emit shell code to append the shell expansion of @var{text} to the end
+of the current contents of the polymorphic shell variable @var{var},
+taking advantage of shells that provide the @samp{+=} extension for more
+efficient scaling.
+
+For situations where the final contents of @var{var} are relatively
+short (less than 256 bytes), it is more efficient to use the simpler
+code sequence of @code{@var{var}=$@{@var{var}@}@var{text}} (or its
+polymorphic equivalent of @code{AS_VAR_COPY([t], [@var{var}])} and
+@code{AS_VAR_SET([@var{var}], ["$t"@var{text}])}).  But in the case
+when the script will be repeatedly appending text into @code{var},
+issues of scaling start to become apparent.  A naive implementation
+requires execution time linear to the length of the current contents of
+@var{var} as well as the length of @var{text} for a single append, for
+an overall quadratic scaling with multiple appends.  This macro takes
+advantage of shells which provide the extension
+@code{@var{var}+=@var{text}}, which can provide amortized constant time
+for a single append, for an overall linear scaling with multiple
+appends.  Note that unlike @code{AS_VAR_SET}, this macro requires that
+@var{text} be quoted properly to avoid field splitting and file name
+expansion.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AS_VAR_ARITH (@var{var}, @var{expression})
+@asindex{VAR_ARITH}
+Emit shell code to compute the arithmetic expansion of @var{expression},
+assigning the result as the contents of the polymorphic shell variable
+@var{var}.  The code takes advantage of shells that provide @samp{$(())}
+for fewer forks, but uses @command{expr} as a fallback.  Therefore, the
+syntax for a valid @var{expression} is rather limited: all operators
+must occur as separate shell arguments and with proper quoting, there is
+no portable equality operator, all variables containing numeric values
+must be expanded prior to the computation, all numeric values must be
+provided in decimal without leading zeroes, and the first shell argument
+should not be a negative number.  In the following example, this snippet
+will print @samp{(2+3)*4 == 20}.
+
+@example
+bar=3
+AS_VAR_ARITH([foo], [\( 2 + $bar \) \* 4])
+echo "(2+$bar)*4 == $foo"
+@end example
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AS_VAR_COPY (@var{dest}, @var{source})
+@asindex{VAR_COPY}
+Emit shell code to assign the contents of the polymorphic shell variable
+@var{source} to the polymorphic shell variable @var{dest}.  For example,
+executing this M4sh snippet will output @samp{bar hi}:
+
+@example
+foo=bar bar=hi
+AS_VAR_COPY([a], [foo])
+AS_VAR_COPY([b], [$foo])
+echo "$a $b"
+@end example
+
+When it is necessary to access the contents of an indirect variable
+inside a shell double-quoted context, the recommended idiom is to first
+copy the contents into a temporary literal shell variable.
+
+@smallexample
+for header in stdint_h inttypes_h ; do
+  AS_VAR_COPY([var], [ac_cv_header_$header])
+  echo "$header detected: $var"

+
+@defmac AS_VAR_IF (@var{var}, @ovar{word}, @ovar{if-equal}, @
+  @ovar{if-not-equal})
+@asindex{VAR_IF}
+Output a shell conditional statement.  If the contents of the
+polymorphic shell variable @var{var} match the string @var{word},
+execute @var{if-equal}; otherwise execute @var{if-not-equal}.  @var{word}
+must be a single shell word (typically a quoted string).  Avoids
+shell bugs if an interrupt signal arrives while a command substitution
+in @var{var} is being expanded.

+@defmac AS_VAR_PUSHDEF (@var{m4-name}, @var{value})
+@defmacx AS_VAR_POPDEF (@var{m4-name})
+@asindex{VAR_PUSHDEF}
+@asindex{VAR_POPDEF}
+@cindex composing variable names
+@cindex variable names, composing
+A common M4sh idiom involves composing shell variable names from an m4
+argument (for example, writing a macro that uses a cache variable).
+@var{value} can be an arbitrary string, which will be transliterated
+into a valid shell name by @code{AS_TR_SH}.  In order to access the
+composed variable name based on @var{value}, it is easier to declare a
+temporary m4 macro @var{m4-name} with @code{AS_VAR_PUSHDEF}, then use
+that macro as the argument to subsequent @code{AS_VAR} macros as a
+polymorphic variable name, and finally free the temporary macro with
+@code{AS_VAR_POPDEF}.  These macros are often followed with @code{dnl},
+to avoid excess newlines in the output.
+
+Here is an involved example, that shows the power of writing macros that
+can handle composed shell variable names:
+
+@example
+m4_define([MY_CHECK_HEADER],
+[AS_VAR_PUSHDEF([my_Header], [ac_cv_header_$1])dnl
+AS_VAR_IF([my_Header], [yes], [echo "header $1 detected"])dnl
+AS_VAR_POPDEF([my_Header])dnl
+])
+MY_CHECK_HEADER([stdint.h])
+for header in inttypes.h stdlib.h ; do
+  MY_CHECK_HEADER([$header])
+done
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In the above example, @code{MY_CHECK_HEADER} can operate on polymorphic
+variable names.  In the first invocation, the m4 argument is
+@code{stdint.h}, which transliterates into a literal @code{stdint_h}.
+As a result, the temporary macro @code{my_Header} expands to the literal
+shell name @samp{ac_cv_header_stdint_h}.  In the second invocation, the
+m4 argument to @code{MY_CHECK_HEADER} is @code{$header}, and the
+temporary macro @code{my_Header} expands to the indirect shell name
+@samp{$as_my_Header}.  During the shell execution of the for loop, when
+@samp{$header} contains @samp{inttypes.h}, then @samp{$as_my_Header}
+contains @samp{ac_cv_header_inttypes_h}.  If this script is then run on a
+platform where all three headers have been previously detected, the
+output of the script will include:
+
+@smallexample
+header stdint.h detected
+header inttypes.h detected
+header stdlib.h detected
+@end smallexample
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AS_VAR_SET (@var{var}, @ovar{value})
+@asindex{VAR_SET}
+Emit shell code to assign the contents of the polymorphic shell variable
+@var{var} to the shell expansion of @var{value}.  @var{value} is not
+subject to field splitting or file name expansion, so if command
+substitution is used, it may be done with @samp{`""`} rather than using
+an intermediate variable (@pxref{Shell Substitutions}).  However,
+@var{value} does undergo rescanning for additional macro names; behavior
+is unspecified if late expansion results in any shell meta-characters.

+
+@defmac AS_INIT
+@asindex{INIT}
+@evindex LC_ALL

+Initialize the M4sh environment.  This macro calls @code{m4_init}, then
+outputs the @code{#! /bin/sh} line, a notice about where the output was
+generated from, and code to sanitize the environment for the rest of the
+script.  Among other initializations, this sets @env{SHELL} to the shell
+chosen to run the script (@pxref{CONFIG_SHELL}), and @env{LC_ALL} to
+ensure the C locale.  Finally, it changes the current diversion to
+@code{BODY}.  @code{AS_INIT} is called automatically by @code{AC_INIT}
+and @code{AT_INIT}, so shell code in @file{configure},
+@file{config.status}, and @file{testsuite} all benefit from a sanitized
+shell environment.
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AS_INIT_GENERATED (@var{file}, @ovar{comment})
+@asindex{INIT_GENERATED}
+Emit shell code to start the creation of a subsidiary shell script in
+@var{file}, including changing @var{file} to be executable.  This macro
+populates the child script with information learned from the parent
+(thus, the emitted code is equivalent in effect, but more efficient,
+than the code output by @code{AS_INIT}, @code{AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE}, and
+@code{AS_SHELL_SANITIZE}).  If present, @var{comment} is output near the
+beginning of the child, prior to the shell initialization code, and is
+subject to parameter expansion, command substitution, and backslash
+quote removal.  The
+parent script should check the exit status after this macro, in case
+@var{file} could not be properly created (for example, if the disk was
+full).  If successfully created, the parent script can then proceed to
+append additional M4sh constructs into the child script.
+
+Note that the child script starts life without a log file open, so if
+the parent script uses logging (@pxref{AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD}), you
+must temporarily disable any attempts to use the log file until after
+emitting code to open a log within the child.  On the other hand, if the
+parent script has @code{AS_MESSAGE_FD} redirected somewhere besides
+@samp{1}, then the child script already has code that copies stdout to
+that descriptor.  Currently, the suggested
+idiom for writing a M4sh shell script from within another script is:
+
+@example
+AS_INIT_GENERATED([@var{file}], [[# My child script.
+]]) || @{ AS_ECHO(["Failed to create child script"]); AS_EXIT; @}
+m4_pushdef([AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD])dnl

+# Code to initialize AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
+m4_popdef([AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD])dnl
+# Additional code
+__EOF__
+@end example
+
+This, however, may change in the future as the M4sh interface is
+stabilized further.
+
+Also, be aware that use of @env{LINENO} within the child script may
+report line numbers relative to their location in the parent script,
+even when using @code{AS_LINENO_PREPARE}, if the parent script was
+unable to locate a shell with working @env{LINENO} support.

+@ovindex tmp
+Create, as safely as possible, a temporary sub-directory within
+@var{dir} with a name starting with @var{prefix}.  @var{prefix} should
+be 2-4 characters, to make it slightly easier to identify the owner of
+the directory.  If @var{dir} is omitted, then the value of @env{TMPDIR}
+will be used (defaulting to @samp{/tmp}).  On success, the name of the
+newly created directory is stored in the shell variable @code{tmp}.  On
+error, the script is aborted.
+
+Typically, this macro is coupled with some exit traps to delete the created
+directory and its contents on exit or interrupt.  However, there is a
+slight window between when the directory is created and when the name is
+actually known to the shell, so an interrupt at the right moment might
+leave the temporary directory behind.  Hence it is important to use a
+@var{prefix} that makes it easier to determine if a leftover temporary
+directory from an interrupted script is safe to delete.
+
+The use of the output variable @samp{$tmp} rather than something in the

+
+When @command{configure} runs, it may accidentally execute an
+interactive command that has the same name as the non-interactive meant
+to be used or checked.  If the standard input was the terminal, such

+@samp{$2}, etc.  @xref{Definitions, , How to define new macros, m4.info,
+GNU M4}, for more complete information on writing M4 macros.
+
+Most macros fall in one of two general categories.  The first category
+includes macros which take arguments, in order to generate output
+parameterized by those arguments.  Macros in this category are designed
+to be directly expanded, often multiple times, and should not be used as
+the argument to @code{AC_REQUIRE}.  The other category includes macros
+which are shorthand for a fixed block of text, and therefore do not take
+arguments.  For this category of macros, directly expanding the macro
+multiple times results in redundant output, so it is more common to use
+the macro as the argument to @code{AC_REQUIRE}, or to declare the macro
+with @code{AC_DEFUN_ONCE} (@pxref{One-Shot Macros}).
+
+Be sure to properly quote both the @var{macro-body} @emph{and} the
+@var{macro-name} to avoid any problems if the macro happens to have
+been previously defined.
+
+Each macro should have a header comment that gives its prototype, and a
+brief description.  When arguments have default values, display them in
+the prototype.  For example:
+
+@example
+# AC_MSG_ERROR(ERROR, [EXIT-STATUS = 1])
+# --------------------------------------
+m4_define([AC_MSG_ERROR],
+  [@{ AS_MESSAGE([error: $1], [2])
+     exit m4_default([$2], [1]); @}])
+@end example
+
+Comments about the macro should be left in the header comment.  Most
+other comments make their way into @file{configure}, so just keep
+using @samp{#} to introduce comments.
+
+@cindex @code{dnl}
+If you have some special comments about pure M4 code, comments
+that make no sense in @file{configure} and in the header comment, then
+use the builtin @code{dnl}: it causes M4 to discard the text
+through the next newline.
+
+Keep in mind that @code{dnl} is rarely needed to introduce comments;
+@code{dnl} is more useful to get rid of the newlines following macros
+that produce no output, such as @code{AC_REQUIRE}.
+
+Public third-party macros need to use @code{AC_DEFUN}, and not
+@code{m4_define}, in order to be found by @command{aclocal}
+(@pxref{Extending aclocal,,, automake, GNU Automake}).
+Additionally, if it is ever determined that a macro should be made
+obsolete, it is easy to convert from @code{AC_DEFUN} to @code{AU_DEFUN}
+in order to have @command{autoupdate} assist the user in choosing a
+better alternative, but there is no corresponding way to make
+@code{m4_define} issue an upgrade notice (@pxref{AU_DEFUN}).
+
+There is another subtle, but important, difference between using
+@code{m4_define} and @code{AC_DEFUN}: only the former is unaffected by
+@code{AC_REQUIRE}.  When writing a file, it is always safe to replace a
+block of text with a @code{m4_define} macro that will expand to the same
+text.  But replacing a block of text with an @code{AC_DEFUN} macro with
+the same content does not necessarily give the same results, because it
+changes the location where any embedded but unsatisfied
+@code{AC_REQUIRE} invocations within the block will be expanded.  For an
+example of this, see @ref{Expanded Before Required}.
+
+@node Macro Names
+@section Macro Names
+
+All of the public Autoconf macros have all-uppercase names in the
+namespace @samp{^AC_} to prevent them from accidentally conflicting with
+other text; Autoconf also reserves the namespace @samp{^_AC_} for
+internal macros.  All shell variables that they use for internal
+purposes have mostly-lowercase names starting with @samp{ac_}.  Autoconf
+also uses here-document delimiters in the namespace @samp{^_AC[A-Z]}.  During
+@command{configure}, files produced by Autoconf make heavy use of the
+file system namespace @samp{^conf}.
+
+Since Autoconf is built on top of M4sugar (@pxref{Programming in
+M4sugar}) and M4sh (@pxref{Programming in M4sh}), you must also be aware
+of those namespaces (@samp{^_?\(m4\|AS\)_}).  And since
+@file{configure.ac} is also designed to be scanned by Autoheader,
+Autoscan, Autoupdate, and Automake, you should be aware of the
+@samp{^_?A[HNUM]_} namespaces.  In general, you @emph{should not use}
+the namespace of a package that does not own the macro or shell code you
+are writing.
+
+To ensure that your macros don't conflict with present or future
+Autoconf macros, you should prefix your own macro names and any shell
+variables they use with some other sequence.  Possibilities include your
+initials, or an abbreviation for the name of your organization or
+software package.  Historically, people have not always followed the
+rule of using a namespace appropriate for their package, and this has
+made it difficult for determining the origin of a macro (and where to
+report bugs about that macro), as well as difficult for the true
+namespace owner to add new macros without interference from pre-existing
+uses of third-party macros.  Perhaps the best example of this confusion
+is the @code{AM_GNU_GETTEXT} macro, which belongs, not to Automake, but
+to Gettext.
+
+Most of the Autoconf macros' names follow a structured naming convention
+that indicates the kind of feature check by the name.  The macro names
+consist of several words, separated by underscores, going from most
+general to most specific.  The names of their cache variables use the
+same convention (@pxref{Cache Variable Names}, for more information on
+them).
+
+The first word of the name after the namespace initials (such as
+@samp{AC_}) usually tells the category
+of the feature being tested.  Here are the categories used in Autoconf for
+specific test macros, the kind of macro that you are more likely to
+write.  They are also used for cache variables, in all-lowercase.  Use
+them where applicable; where they're not, invent your own categories.
+
+@table @code
+@item C
+C language builtin features.
+@item DECL
+Declarations of C variables in header files.
+@item FUNC
+Functions in libraries.
+@item GROUP
+Posix group owners of files.
+@item HEADER
+Header files.
+@item LIB
+C libraries.
+@item PROG
+The base names of programs.
+@item MEMBER
+Members of aggregates.
+@item SYS
+Operating system features.
+@item TYPE
+C builtin or declared types.
+@item VAR
+C variables in libraries.
+@end table
+
+After the category comes the name of the particular feature being
+tested.  Any further words in the macro name indicate particular aspects
+of the feature.  For example, @code{AC_PROG_CC_STDC} checks whether the
+C compiler supports ISO Standard C.
+
+An internal macro should have a name that starts with an underscore;
+Autoconf internals should therefore start with @samp{_AC_}.
+Additionally, a macro that is an internal subroutine of another macro
+should have a name that starts with an underscore and the name of that
+other macro, followed by one or more words saying what the internal
+macro does.  For example, @code{AC_PATH_X} has internal macros
+@code{_AC_PATH_X_XMKMF} and @code{_AC_PATH_X_DIRECT}.

+@node Reporting Messages
+@section Reporting Messages
+@cindex Messages, from @command{autoconf}
+
+When macros statically diagnose abnormal situations, benign or fatal, it
+is possible to make @command{autoconf} detect the problem, and refuse to
+create @file{configure} in the case of an error.  The macros in this
+section are considered obsolescent, and new code should use M4sugar
+macros for this purpose, see @ref{Diagnostic Macros}.
+
+On the other hand, it is possible to want to detect errors when
+@command{configure} is run, which are dependent on the environment of
+the user rather than the maintainer.  For dynamic diagnostics, see
+@ref{Printing Messages}.
+
+@defmac AC_DIAGNOSE (@var{category}, @var{message})
+@acindex{DIAGNOSE}
+Report @var{message} as a warning (or as an error if requested by the

+
+When the user runs @samp{autoconf -W error}, warnings from

+
+@node Dependencies Between Macros
+@section Dependencies Between Macros
+@cindex Dependencies between macros
+
+Some Autoconf macros depend on other macros having been called first in
+order to work correctly.  Autoconf provides a way to ensure that certain
+macros are called if needed and a way to warn the user if macros are
+called in an order that might cause incorrect operation.

+* Prerequisite Macros::         Ensuring required information

+@end menu
+
+@node Prerequisite Macros
+@subsection Prerequisite Macros
+@cindex Prerequisite macros
+@cindex Macros, prerequisites
+
+A macro that you write might need to use values that have previously
+been computed by other macros.  For example, @code{AC_DECL_YYTEXT}
+examines the output of @code{flex} or @code{lex}, so it depends on
+@code{AC_PROG_LEX} having been called first to set the shell variable
+@code{LEX}.
+
+Rather than forcing the user of the macros to keep track of the
+dependencies between them, you can use the @code{AC_REQUIRE} macro to do
+it automatically.  @code{AC_REQUIRE} can ensure that a macro is only
+called if it is needed, and only called once.
+
+@defmac AC_REQUIRE (@var{macro-name})
+@acindex{REQUIRE}
+If the M4 macro @var{macro-name} has not already been called, call it
+(without any arguments).  Make sure to quote @var{macro-name} with
+square brackets.  @var{macro-name} must have been defined using
+@code{AC_DEFUN} or else contain a call to @code{AC_PROVIDE} to indicate
+that it has been called.
+
+@code{AC_REQUIRE} must be used inside a macro defined by @code{AC_DEFUN}; it
+must not be called from the top level.  Also, it does not make sense to
+require a macro that takes parameters.
+@end defmac
+
+@code{AC_REQUIRE} is often misunderstood.  It really implements
+dependencies between macros in the sense that if one macro depends upon
+another, the latter is expanded @emph{before} the body of the
+former.  To be more precise, the required macro is expanded before
+the outermost defined macro in the current expansion stack.
+In particular, @samp{AC_REQUIRE([FOO])} is not replaced with the body of
+@code{FOO}.  For instance, this definition of macros:
+
+@example
+@group
+AC_DEFUN([TRAVOLTA],
+[test "$body_temperature_in_celsius" -gt "38" &&
+  dance_floor=occupied])
+AC_DEFUN([NEWTON_JOHN],
+[test "x$hair_style" = xcurly &&
+  dance_floor=occupied])
+@end group
+
+@group
+AC_DEFUN([RESERVE_DANCE_FLOOR],
+[if date | grep '^Sat.*pm' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+  AC_REQUIRE([TRAVOLTA])
+  AC_REQUIRE([NEWTON_JOHN])
+fi])
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+with this @file{configure.ac}
+
+@example
+AC_INIT([Dance Manager], [1.0], [bug-dance@@example.org])
+RESERVE_DANCE_FLOOR
+if test "x$dance_floor" = xoccupied; then
+  AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot pick up here, let's move])
+fi
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+does not leave you with a better chance to meet a kindred soul at
+other times than Saturday night since it expands into:
+
+@example
+@group
+test "$body_temperature_in_Celsius" -gt "38" &&
+  dance_floor=occupied
+test "x$hair_style" = xcurly &&
+  dance_floor=occupied
+fi
+if date | grep '^Sat.*pm' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+
+
+fi
+@end group
+@end example
+
+This behavior was chosen on purpose: (i) it prevents messages in
+required macros from interrupting the messages in the requiring macros;
+(ii) it avoids bad surprises when shell conditionals are used, as in:
+
+@example
+@group
+if @dots{}; then
+  AC_REQUIRE([SOME_CHECK])
+fi
+@dots{}
+SOME_CHECK
+@end group
+@end example
+
+However, this implementation can lead to another class of problems.
+Consider the case where an outer macro first expands, then indirectly
+requires, an inner macro:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [[echo in A
+if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+SEEN_A=:]])
+AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA])[echo in B
+if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+TESTA
+TESTC])
+OUTER
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Prior to Autoconf 2.64, the implementation of @code{AC_REQUIRE}
+recognized that @code{TESTB} needed to be hoisted prior to the expansion
+of @code{OUTER}, but because @code{TESTA} had already been directly
+expanded, it failed to hoist @code{TESTA}.  Therefore, the expansion of
+@code{TESTB} occurs prior to its prerequisites, leading to the following
+output:
+
+@example
+in B
+bug
+in OUTER
+in A
+in C
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Newer Autoconf is smart enough to recognize this situation, and hoists
+@code{TESTA} even though it has already been expanded, but issues a
+syntax warning in the process.  This is because the hoisted expansion of
+@code{TESTA} defeats the purpose of using @code{AC_REQUIRE} to avoid
+redundant code, and causes its own set of problems if the hoisted macro
+is not idempotent:
+
+@example
+in A
+in B
+in OUTER
+in A
+duplicate
+in C
+@end example
+
+The bug is not in Autoconf, but in the macro definitions.  If you ever
+pass a particular macro name to @code{AC_REQUIRE}, then you are implying
+that the macro only needs to be expanded once.  But to enforce this,
+either the macro must be declared with @code{AC_DEFUN_ONCE} (although
+this only helps in Autoconf 2.64 or newer), or all
+uses of that macro should be through @code{AC_REQUIRE}; directly
+expanding the macro defeats the point of using @code{AC_REQUIRE} to
+eliminate redundant expansion.  In the example, this rule of thumb was
+violated because @code{TESTB} requires @code{TESTA} while @code{OUTER}
+directly expands it.  One way of fixing the bug is to factor
+@code{TESTA} into two macros, the portion designed for direct and
+repeated use (here, named @code{TESTA}), and the portion designed for
+one-shot output and used only inside @code{AC_REQUIRE} (here, named
+@code{TESTA_PREREQ}).  Then, by fixing all clients to use the correct
+calling convention according to their needs:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA_PREREQ])[echo in A]])
+AC_DEFUN([TESTA_PREREQ], [[echo in A_PREREQ
+if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+SEEN_A=:]])
+AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA_PREREQ])[echo in B
+if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+TESTA
+TESTC])
+OUTER
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+the resulting output will then obey all dependency rules and avoid any
+syntax warnings, whether the script is built with old or new Autoconf
+versions:
+
+@example
+in A_PREREQ
+in B
+in OUTER
+in A
+in C
+@end example
+
+The helper macros @code{AS_IF} and @code{AS_CASE} may be used to
+enforce expansion of required macros outside of shell conditional
+constructs.  You are furthermore encouraged, although not required, to
+put all @code{AC_REQUIRE} calls
+at the beginning of a macro.  You can use @code{dnl} to avoid the empty
+lines they leave.
+
+@node Suggested Ordering
+@subsection Suggested Ordering
+@cindex Macros, ordering
+@cindex Ordering macros
+
+Some macros should be run before another macro if both are called, but
+neither @emph{requires} that the other be called.  For example, a macro
+that changes the behavior of the C compiler should be called before any
+macros that run the C compiler.  Many of these dependencies are noted in
+the documentation.
+
+Autoconf provides the @code{AC_BEFORE} macro to warn users when macros
+with this kind of dependency appear out of order in a
+@file{configure.ac} file.  The warning occurs when creating
+@command{configure} from @file{configure.ac}, not when running
+@command{configure}.
+
+For example, @code{AC_PROG_CPP} checks whether the C compiler
+can run the C preprocessor when given the @option{-E} option.  It should
+therefore be called after any macros that change which C compiler is
+being used, such as @code{AC_PROG_CC}.  So @code{AC_PROG_CC} contains:
+
+@example
+AC_BEFORE([$0], [AC_PROG_CPP])dnl
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This warns the user if a call to @code{AC_PROG_CPP} has already occurred
+when @code{AC_PROG_CC} is called.
+
+@defmac AC_BEFORE (@var{this-macro-name}, @var{called-macro-name})
+@acindex{BEFORE}
+Make M4 print a warning message to the standard error output if
+@var{called-macro-name} has already been called.  @var{this-macro-name}
+should be the name of the macro that is calling @code{AC_BEFORE}.  The
+macro @var{called-macro-name} must have been defined using
+@code{AC_DEFUN} or else contain a call to @code{AC_PROVIDE} to indicate
+that it has been called.
+@end defmac
+
+@node One-Shot Macros
+@subsection One-Shot Macros
+@cindex One-shot macros
+@cindex Macros, called once
+
+Some macros should be called only once, either because calling them
+multiple time is unsafe, or because it is bad style.  For instance
+Autoconf ensures that @code{AC_CANONICAL_BUILD} and cousins
+(@pxref{Canonicalizing}) are evaluated only once, because it makes no
+sense to run these expensive checks more than once.  Such one-shot
+macros can be defined using @code{AC_DEFUN_ONCE}.
+
+@defmac AC_DEFUN_ONCE (@var{macro-name}, @var{macro-body})
+@acindex{DEFUN_ONCE}
+Declare macro @var{macro-name} like @code{AC_DEFUN} would (@pxref{Macro
+Definitions}), but add additional logic that guarantees that only the
+first use of the macro (whether by direct expansion or
+@code{AC_REQUIRE}) causes an expansion of @var{macro-body}; the
+expansion will occur before the start of any enclosing macro defined by
+@code{AC_DEFUN}.  Subsequent expansions are silently ignored.
+Generally, it does not make sense for @var{macro-body} to use parameters
+such as @code{$1}.
+@end defmac
+
+Prior to Autoconf 2.64, a macro defined by @code{AC_DEFUN_ONCE} would
+emit a warning if it was directly expanded a second time, so for
+portability, it is better to use @code{AC_REQUIRE} than direct
+invocation of @var{macro-name} inside a macro defined by @code{AC_DEFUN}
+(@pxref{Prerequisite Macros}).

+@cindex Macros, obsoleting
+
+Configuration and portability technology has evolved over the years.
+Often better ways of solving a particular problem are developed, or
+ad-hoc approaches are systematized.  This process has occurred in many
+parts of Autoconf.  One result is that some of the macros are now
+considered @dfn{obsolete}; they still work, but are no longer considered
+the best thing to do, hence they should be replaced with more modern
+macros.  Ideally, @command{autoupdate} should replace the old macro calls
+with their modern implementation.
+
+Autoconf provides a simple means to obsolete a macro.
+
+@anchor{AU_DEFUN}
+@defmac AU_DEFUN (@var{old-macro}, @var{implementation}, @ovar{message})
+@auindex{DEFUN}
+Define @var{old-macro} as @var{implementation}.  The only difference
+with @code{AC_DEFUN} is that the user is warned that
+@var{old-macro} is now obsolete.
+
+If she then uses @command{autoupdate}, the call to @var{old-macro} is
+replaced by the modern @var{implementation}.  @var{message} should
+include information on what to do after running @command{autoupdate};
+@command{autoupdate} prints it as a warning, and includes it
+in the updated @file{configure.ac} file.
+
+The details of this macro are hairy: if @command{autoconf} encounters an
+@code{AU_DEFUN}ed macro, all macros inside its second argument are expanded
+as usual.  However, when @command{autoupdate} is run, only M4 and M4sugar
+macros are expanded here, while all other macros are disabled and
+appear literally in the updated @file{configure.ac}.
+@end defmac

+@defmac AU_ALIAS (@var{old-name}, @var{new-name})

+
+@node Coding Style
+@section Coding Style
+@cindex Coding style
+
+The Autoconf macros follow a strict coding style.  You are encouraged to
+follow this style, especially if you intend to distribute your macro,
+either by contributing it to Autoconf itself or the
+@uref{http://@/www.gnu.org/@/software/@/autoconf-archive/, Autoconf Macro
+Archive}, or by other means.
+
+The first requirement is to pay great attention to the quotation.  For
+more details, see @ref{Autoconf Language}, and @ref{M4 Quotation}.
+
+Do not try to invent new interfaces.  It is likely that there is a macro
+in Autoconf that resembles the macro you are defining: try to stick to
+this existing interface (order of arguments, default values, etc.).  We
+@emph{are} conscious that some of these interfaces are not perfect;
+nevertheless, when harmless, homogeneity should be preferred over
+creativity.
+
+Be careful about clashes both between M4 symbols and between shell
+variables.
+
+If you stick to the suggested M4 naming scheme (@pxref{Macro Names}),
+you are unlikely to generate conflicts.  Nevertheless, when you need to
+set a special value, @emph{avoid using a regular macro name}; rather,
+use an ``impossible'' name.  For instance, up to version 2.13, the macro
+@code{AC_SUBST} used to remember what @var{symbol} macros were already defined
+by setting @code{AC_SUBST_@var{symbol}}, which is a regular macro name.
+But since there is a macro named @code{AC_SUBST_FILE}, it was just
+impossible to @samp{AC_SUBST(FILE)}!  In this case,
+@code{AC_SUBST(@var{symbol})} or @code{_AC_SUBST(@var{symbol})} should
+have been used (yes, with the parentheses).
+@c or better yet, high-level macros such as @code{m4_expand_once}
+
+No Autoconf macro should ever enter the user-variable name space; i.e.,
+except for the variables that are the actual result of running the
+macro, all shell variables should start with @code{ac_}.  In
+addition, small macros or any macro that is likely to be embedded in
+other macros should be careful not to use obvious names.
+
+@cindex @code{dnl}
+Do not use @code{dnl} to introduce comments: most of the comments you
+are likely to write are either header comments which are not output
+anyway, or comments that should make their way into @file{configure}.
+There are exceptional cases where you do want to comment special M4
+constructs, in which case @code{dnl} is right, but keep in mind that it
+is unlikely.
+
+M4 ignores the leading blanks and newlines before each argument.
+Use this feature to
+indent in such a way that arguments are (more or less) aligned with the
+opening parenthesis of the macro being called.  For instance, instead of
+
+@example
+AC_CACHE_CHECK(for EMX OS/2 environment,
+ac_cv_emxos2,
+[AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(, [return __EMX__;])],
+[ac_cv_emxos2=yes], [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])

+
+@example

+                   [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],
+                   [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+or even
+
+@example
+AC_CACHE_CHECK([for EMX OS/2 environment],
+               [ac_cv_emxos2],
+               [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([],
+                                                   [return __EMX__;])],
+                                  [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],

+@end example
+
+When using @code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} or any macro that cannot work when
+cross-compiling, provide a pessimistic value (typically @samp{no}).

+@example
+m4_bpatsubst([$1], [$""])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+so that Emacsen do not open an endless ``string'' at the first quote.
+For the same reasons, avoid:
+
+@example
+test $[#] != 0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and use:
+
+@example
+test $[@@%:@@] != 0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Otherwise, the closing bracket would be hidden inside a @samp{#}-comment,
+breaking the bracket-matching highlighting from Emacsen.  Note the
+preferred style to escape from M4: @samp{$[1]}, @samp{$[@@]}, etc.  Do
+not escape when it is unnecessary.  Common examples of useless quotation
+are @samp{[$]$1} (write @samp{$$1}), @samp{[$]var} (use @samp{$var}),
+etc.  If you add portability issues to the picture, you'll prefer
+@samp{$@{1+"$[@@]"@}} to @samp{"[$]@@"}, and you'll prefer do something
+better than hacking Autoconf @code{:-)}.
+
+When using @command{sed}, don't use @option{-e} except for indenting
+purposes.  With the @code{s} and @code{y} commands, the preferred
+separator is @samp{/} unless @samp{/} itself might appear in the pattern
+or replacement, in which case you should use @samp{|}, or optionally
+@samp{,} if you know the pattern and replacement cannot contain a file
+name.  If none of these characters will do, choose a printable character
+that cannot appear in the pattern or replacement.  Characters from the
+set @samp{"#$&'()*;<=>?`|~} are good choices if the pattern or
+replacement might contain a file name, since they have special meaning
+to the shell and are less likely to occur in file names.
+
+@xref{Macro Definitions}, for details on how to define a macro.  If a
+macro doesn't use @code{AC_REQUIRE}, is expected to never be the object
+of an @code{AC_REQUIRE} directive, and macros required by other macros
+inside arguments do not need to be expanded before this macro, then
+use @code{m4_define}.  In case of doubt, use @code{AC_DEFUN}.
+Also take into account that public third-party macros need to use
+@code{AC_DEFUN} in order to be found by @command{aclocal}
+(@pxref{Extending aclocal,,, automake, GNU Automake}).
+All the @code{AC_REQUIRE} statements should be at the beginning of the
+macro, and each statement should be followed by @code{dnl}.
+
+You should not rely on the number of arguments: instead of checking
+whether an argument is missing, test that it is not empty.  It provides
+both a simpler and a more predictable interface to the user, and saves
+room for further arguments.
+
+Unless the macro is short, try to leave the closing @samp{])} at the
+beginning of a line, followed by a comment that repeats the name of the
+macro being defined.  This introduces an additional newline in
+@command{configure}; normally, that is not a problem, but if you want to
+remove it you can use @samp{[]dnl} on the last line.  You can similarly
+use @samp{[]dnl} after a macro call to remove its newline.  @samp{[]dnl}
+is recommended instead of @samp{dnl} to ensure that M4 does not
+interpret the @samp{dnl} as being attached to the preceding text or
+macro output.  For example, instead of:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([AC_PATH_X],
+[AC_MSG_CHECKING([for X])
+AC_REQUIRE_CPP()
+@r{# @dots{}omitted@dots{}}
+  AC_MSG_RESULT([libraries $x_libraries, headers $x_includes])
+fi])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+you would write:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([AC_PATH_X],
+[AC_REQUIRE_CPP()[]dnl
+AC_MSG_CHECKING([for X])
+@r{# @dots{}omitted@dots{}}
+  AC_MSG_RESULT([libraries $x_libraries, headers $x_includes])
+fi[]dnl
+])# AC_PATH_X
+@end example
+
+If the macro is long, try to split it into logical chunks.  Typically,
+macros that check for a bug in a function and prepare its
+@code{AC_LIBOBJ} replacement should have an auxiliary macro to perform
+this setup.  Do not hesitate to introduce auxiliary macros to factor
+your code.
+
+In order to highlight the recommended coding style, here is a macro
+written the old way:
+
+@example
+dnl Check for EMX on OS/2.
+dnl _AC_EMXOS2
+AC_DEFUN(_AC_EMXOS2,
+[AC_CACHE_CHECK(for EMX OS/2 environment, ac_cv_emxos2,
+[AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(, return __EMX__;)],
+ac_cv_emxos2=yes, ac_cv_emxos2=no)])
+test "x$ac_cv_emxos2" = xyes && EMXOS2=yes])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and the new way:
+
+@example
+# _AC_EMXOS2
+# ----------
+# Check for EMX on OS/2.
+m4_define([_AC_EMXOS2],
+[AC_CACHE_CHECK([for EMX OS/2 environment], [ac_cv_emxos2],
+[AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([], [return __EMX__;])],
+                   [ac_cv_emxos2=yes],
+                   [ac_cv_emxos2=no])])
+test "x$ac_cv_emxos2" = xyes && EMXOS2=yes[]dnl
+])# _AC_EMXOS2

+@cindex Portable shell programming
+
+When writing your own checks, there are some shell-script programming
+techniques you should avoid in order to make your code portable.  The
+Bourne shell and upward-compatible shells like the Korn shell and Bash
+have evolved over the years, and many features added to the original
+System7 shell are now supported on all interesting porting targets.
+However, the following discussion between Russ Allbery and Robert Lipe
+is worth reading:
+
+@noindent
+Russ Allbery:
+
+@quotation
+The GNU assumption that @command{/bin/sh} is the one and only shell
+leads to a permanent deadlock.  Vendors don't want to break users'
+existing shell scripts, and there are some corner cases in the Bourne
+shell that are not completely compatible with a Posix shell.  Thus,
+vendors who have taken this route will @emph{never} (OK@dots{}``never say
+never'') replace the Bourne shell (as @command{/bin/sh}) with a
+Posix shell.
+@end quotation
+
+@noindent
+Robert Lipe:
+
+@quotation
+This is exactly the problem.  While most (at least most System V's) do
+have a Bourne shell that accepts shell functions most vendor
+@command{/bin/sh} programs are not the Posix shell.
+
+So while most modern systems do have a shell @emph{somewhere} that meets the
+Posix standard, the challenge is to find it.
+@end quotation
+
+For this reason, part of the job of M4sh (@pxref{Programming in M4sh})
+is to find such a shell.  But to prevent trouble, if you're not using
+M4sh you should not take advantage of features that were added after Unix
+version 7, circa 1977 (@pxref{Systemology}); you should not use aliases,
+negated character classes, or even @command{unset}.  @code{#} comments,
+while not in Unix version 7, were retrofitted in the original Bourne
+shell and can be assumed to be part of the least common denominator.
+
+On the other hand, if you're using M4sh you can assume that the shell
+has the features that were added in SVR2 (circa 1984), including shell
+functions,
+@command{return}, @command{unset}, and I/O redirection for builtins.  For
+more information, refer to @uref{http://@/www.in-ulm.de/@/~mascheck/@/bourne/}.
+However, some pitfalls have to be avoided for portable use of these
+constructs; these will be documented in the rest of this chapter.
+See in particular @ref{Shell Functions} and @ref{Limitations of
+Builtins, , Limitations of Shell Builtins}.
+
+Some ancient systems have quite
+small limits on the length of the @samp{#!} line; for instance, 32
+bytes (not including the newline) on SunOS 4.
+However, these ancient systems are no longer of practical concern.
+
+The set of external programs you should run in a @command{configure} script
+is fairly small.  @xref{Utilities in Makefiles, , Utilities in
+Makefiles, standards, The GNU Coding Standards}, for the list.  This
+restriction allows users to start out with a fairly small set of
+programs and build the rest, avoiding too many interdependencies between
+packages.
+
+Some of these external utilities have a portable subset of features; see
+@ref{Limitations of Usual Tools}.
+
+There are other sources of documentation about shells.  The
+specification for the Posix
+@uref{http://@/www.opengroup.org/@/susv3/@/utilities/@/xcu_chap02@/.html, Shell
+Command Language}, though more generous than the restrictive shell
+subset described above, is fairly portable nowadays.  Also please see
+@uref{http://@/www.faqs.org/@/faqs/@/unix-faq/@/shell/, the Shell FAQs}.

+There are several families of shells, most prominently the Bourne family
+and the C shell family which are deeply incompatible.  If you want to
+write portable shell scripts, avoid members of the C shell family.  The
+@uref{http://@/www.faqs.org/@/faqs/@/unix-faq/@/shell/@/shell-differences/, the
+Shell difference FAQ} includes a small history of Posix shells, and a
+comparison between several of them.
+
+Below we describe some of the members of the Bourne shell family.
+
+@table @asis
+@item Ash
+@cindex Ash
+Ash is often used on GNU/Linux and BSD
+systems as a light-weight Bourne-compatible shell.  Ash 0.2 has some
+bugs that are fixed in the 0.3.x series, but portable shell scripts
+should work around them, since version 0.2 is still shipped with many
+GNU/Linux distributions.
+
+To be compatible with Ash 0.2:
+
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+don't use @samp{$?} after expanding empty or unset variables,
+or at the start of an @command{eval}:
+
+@example
+foo=
+false
+$foo
+echo "Do not use it: $?"
+false
+eval 'echo "Do not use it: $?"'
+@end example
+
+@item
+don't use command substitution within variable expansion:
+
+@example
+cat $@{FOO=`bar`@}
+@end example
+
+@item
+beware that single builtin substitutions are not performed by a
+subshell, hence their effect applies to the current shell!  @xref{Shell
+Substitutions}, item ``Command Substitution''.
+@end itemize
+
+@item Bash
+@cindex Bash
+To detect whether you are running Bash, test whether
+@code{BASH_VERSION} is set.  To require
+Posix compatibility, run @samp{set -o posix}.  @xref{Bash POSIX
+Mode, , Bash Posix Mode, bash, The GNU Bash Reference
+Manual}, for details.
+
+@item Bash 2.05 and later
+@cindex Bash 2.05 and later
+Versions 2.05 and later of Bash use a different format for the
+output of the @command{set} builtin, designed to make evaluating its
+output easier.  However, this output is not compatible with earlier
+versions of Bash (or with many other shells, probably).  So if
+you use Bash 2.05 or higher to execute @command{configure},
+you'll need to use Bash 2.05 for all other build tasks as well.
+
+@item Ksh
+@cindex Ksh
+@cindex Korn shell
+@prindex @samp{ksh}
+@prindex @samp{ksh88}
+@prindex @samp{ksh93}
+The Korn shell is compatible with the Bourne family and it mostly
+conforms to Posix.  It has two major variants commonly
+called @samp{ksh88} and @samp{ksh93}, named after the years of initial
+release.  It is usually called @command{ksh}, but is called @command{sh}
+on some hosts if you set your path appropriately.
+
+Solaris systems have three variants:
+@prindex @command{/usr/bin/ksh} on Solaris
+@command{/usr/bin/ksh} is @samp{ksh88}; it is
+standard on Solaris 2.0 and later.
+@prindex @command{/usr/xpg4/bin/sh} on Solaris
+@command{/usr/xpg4/bin/sh} is a Posix-compliant variant of
+@samp{ksh88}; it is standard on Solaris 9 and later.
+@prindex @command{/usr/dt/bin/dtksh} on Solaris
+@command{/usr/dt/bin/dtksh} is @samp{ksh93}.
+Variants that are not standard may be parts of optional
+packages.  There is no extra charge for these packages, but they are
+not part of a minimal OS install and therefore some installations may
+not have it.
+
+Starting with Tru64 Version 4.0, the Korn shell @command{/usr/bin/ksh}
+is also available as @command{/usr/bin/posix/sh}.  If the environment
+variable @env{BIN_SH} is set to @code{xpg4}, subsidiary invocations of
+the standard shell conform to Posix.
+
+@item Pdksh
+@prindex @samp{pdksh}
+A public-domain clone of the Korn shell called @command{pdksh} is widely
+available: it has most of the @samp{ksh88} features along with a few of
+its own.  It usually sets @code{KSH_VERSION}, except if invoked as
+@command{/bin/sh} on OpenBSD, and similarly to Bash you can require
+Posix compatibility by running @samp{set -o posix}.  Unfortunately, with
+@command{pdksh} 5.2.14 (the latest stable version as of January 2007)
+Posix mode is buggy and causes @command{pdksh} to depart from Posix in
+at least one respect, see @ref{Shell Substitutions}.
+
+@item Zsh
+@cindex Zsh
+To detect whether you are running @command{zsh}, test whether
+@code{ZSH_VERSION} is set.  By default @command{zsh} is @emph{not}
+compatible with the Bourne shell: you must execute @samp{emulate sh},
+and for @command{zsh} versions before 3.1.6-dev-18 you must also
+set @code{NULLCMD} to @samp{:}.  @xref{Compatibility, , Compatibility,
+zsh, The Z Shell Manual}, for details.
+
+The default Mac OS X @command{sh} was originally Zsh; it was changed to
+Bash in Mac OS X 10.2.

+
+The Korn shell (up to at least version M-12/28/93d) has a bug when
+invoked on a file whose name does not contain a slash.  It first
+searches for the file's name in @env{PATH}, and if found it executes
+that rather than the original file.  For example, assuming there is a
+binary executable @file{/usr/bin/script} in your @env{PATH}, the last
+command in the following example fails because the Korn shell finds
+@file{/usr/bin/script} and refuses to execute it as a shell script:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{touch xxyzzyz script}
+$ @kbd{ksh xxyzzyz}
+$ @kbd{ksh ./script}
+$ @kbd{ksh script}
+ksh: script: cannot execute
+@end example
+
+Bash 2.03 has a bug when invoked with the @option{-c} option: if the
+option-argument ends in backslash-newline, Bash incorrectly reports a
+syntax error.  The problem does not occur if a character follows the
+backslash:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{$ bash -c 'echo foo \}
+> @kbd{'}
+bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'echo foo \}
+> @kbd{ '}
+foo
+@end example
+

+@xref{Backslash-Newline-Empty}, for how this can cause problems in makefiles.
+
+@node Here-Documents
+@section Here-Documents
+@cindex Here-documents
+@cindex Shell here-documents
+
+Don't rely on @samp{\} being preserved just because it has no special
+meaning together with the next symbol.  In the native @command{sh}
+on OpenBSD 2.7 @samp{\"} expands to @samp{"} in here-documents with
+unquoted delimiter.  As a general rule, if @samp{\\} expands to @samp{\}
+use @samp{\\} to get @samp{\}.
+
+With OpenBSD 2.7's @command{sh}
+
+@example
+@group
+$ @kbd{cat <<EOF
+> \" \\
+> EOF}
+" \
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and with Bash:
+
+@example
+@group
+bash-2.04$ @kbd{cat <<EOF
+> \" \\
+> EOF}
+\" \
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Using command substitutions in a here-document that is fed to a shell
+function is not portable.  For example, with Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{kitty () @{ cat; @}}
+$ @kbd{kitty <<EOF
+> `echo ok`
+> EOF}
+/tmp/sh199886: cannot open
+$ @kbd{echo $?}
+1
+@end example
+
+Some shells mishandle large here-documents: for example,
+Solaris 10 @command{dtksh} and the UnixWare 7.1.1 Posix shell, which are
+derived from Korn shell version M-12/28/93d, mishandle braced variable
+expansion that crosses a 1024- or 4096-byte buffer boundary
+within a here-document.  Only the part of the variable name after the boundary
+is used.  For example, @code{$@{variable@}} could be replaced by the expansion
+of @code{$@{ble@}}.  If the end of the variable name is aligned with the block
+boundary, the shell reports an error, as if you used @code{$@{@}}.
+Instead of @code{$@{variable-default@}}, the shell may expand
+@code{$@{riable-default@}}, or even @code{$@{fault@}}.  This bug can often
+be worked around by omitting the braces: @code{$variable}.  The bug was
+fixed in
+@samp{ksh93g} (1998-04-30) but as of 2006 many operating systems were
+still shipping older versions with the bug.
+
+Empty here-documents are not portable either; with the following code,
+@command{zsh} up to at least version 4.3.10 creates a file with a single
+newline, whereas other shells create an empty file:
+
+@example
+cat >file <<EOF
+EOF
+@end example
+
+Many shells (including the Bourne shell) implement here-documents
+inefficiently.  In particular, some shells can be extremely inefficient when
+a single statement contains many here-documents.  For instance if your
+@file{configure.ac} includes something like:
+
+@example
+@group
+if <cross_compiling>; then
+  assume this and that
+else
+  check this
+  check that
+  check something else
+  @dots{}
+  on and on forever
+  @dots{}
+fi
+@end group
+@end example
+
+A shell parses the whole @code{if}/@code{fi} construct, creating
+temporary files for each here-document in it.  Some shells create links
+for such here-documents on every @code{fork}, so that the clean-up code
+they had installed correctly removes them.  It is creating the links
+that can take the shell forever.
+
+Moving the tests out of the @code{if}/@code{fi}, or creating multiple
+@code{if}/@code{fi} constructs, would improve the performance
+significantly.  Anyway, this kind of construct is not exactly the
+typical use of Autoconf.  In fact, it's even not recommended, because M4
+macros can't look into shell conditionals, so we may fail to expand a
+macro when it was expanded before in a conditional path, and the
+condition turned out to be false at runtime, and we end up not
+executing the macro at all.
+
+Be careful with the use of @samp{<<-} to unindent here-documents.  The
+behavior is only portable for stripping leading @key{TAB}s, and things
+can silently break if an overzealous editor converts to using leading
+spaces (not all shells are nice enough to warn about unterminated
+here-documents).
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf 'cat <<-x\n\t1\n\t 2\n\tx\n' | bash && echo done}
+1
+ 2
+done
+$ @kbd{printf 'cat <<-x\n 1\n  2\n x\n' | bash-3.2 && echo done}
+ 1
+  2
+ x
+done
+@end example
+
+@node File Descriptors
+@section File Descriptors
+@cindex Descriptors
+@cindex File descriptors
+@cindex Shell file descriptors
+
+Most shells, if not all (including Bash, Zsh, Ash), output traces on
+stderr, even for subshells.  This might result in undesirable content
+if you meant to capture the standard-error output of the inner command:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{ash -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'}
+$ @kbd{cat stderr}
++ eval echo foo >&2
++ echo foo
+foo
+$ @kbd{bash -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'}
+$ @kbd{cat stderr}
++ eval 'echo foo >&2'
+++ echo foo
+foo
+$ @kbd{zsh -x -c '(eval "echo foo >&2") 2>stderr'}
+@i{# Traces on startup files deleted here.}
+$ @kbd{cat stderr}
++zsh:1> eval echo foo >&2
++zsh:1> echo foo
+foo
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+One workaround is to grep out uninteresting lines, hoping not to remove
+good ones.
+
+If you intend to redirect both standard error and standard output,
+redirect standard output first.  This works better with HP-UX,
+since its shell mishandles tracing if standard error is redirected
+first:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -x -c ': 2>err >out'}
++ :
++ 2> err $ @kbd{cat err}
+1> out
+@end example
+
+Don't try to redirect the standard error of a command substitution.  It
+must be done @emph{inside} the command substitution.  When running
+@samp{: `cd /zorglub` 2>/dev/null} expect the error message to
+escape, while @samp{: `cd /zorglub 2>/dev/null`} works properly.
+
+On the other hand, some shells, such as Solaris or FreeBSD
+@command{/bin/sh}, warn about missing programs before performing
+redirections.  Therefore, to silently check whether a program exists, it
+is necessary to perform redirections on a subshell or brace group:
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'nosuch 2>/dev/null'}
+nosuch: not found
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c '(nosuch) 2>/dev/null'}
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c '@{ nosuch; @} 2>/dev/null'}
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'nosuch 2>/dev/null'}
+@end example
+
+FreeBSD 6.2 sh may mix the trace output lines from the statements in a
+shell pipeline.
+
+It is worth noting that Zsh (but not Ash nor Bash) makes it possible
+in assignments though: @samp{foo=`cd /zorglub` 2>/dev/null}.
+
+Some shells, like @command{ash}, don't recognize bi-directional
+redirection (@samp{<>}).  And even on shells that recognize it, it is
+not portable to use on fifos: Posix does not require read-write support
+for named pipes, and Cygwin does not support it:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{mkfifo fifo}
+$ @kbd{exec 5<>fifo}
+$ @kbd{echo hi >&5}
+bash: echo: write error: Communication error on send
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Furthermore, versions of @command{dash} before 0.5.6 mistakenly truncate
+regular files when using @samp{<>}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo a > file}
+$ @kbd{bash -c ': 1<>file'; cat file}
+a
+$ @kbd{dash -c ': 1<>file'; cat file}
+$ rm a
+@end example
+
+When catering to old systems, don't redirect the same file descriptor
+several times, as you are doomed to failure under Ultrix.
+
+@example
+ULTRIX V4.4 (Rev. 69) System #31: Thu Aug 10 19:42:23 GMT 1995
+UWS V4.4 (Rev. 11)
+$ @kbd{eval 'echo matter >fullness' >void}
+illegal io
+$ @kbd{eval '(echo matter >fullness)' >void}
+illegal io
+$ @kbd{(eval '(echo matter >fullness)') >void}
+Ambiguous output redirect.
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In each case the expected result is of course @file{fullness} containing
+@samp{matter} and @file{void} being empty.  However, this bug is
+probably not of practical concern to modern platforms.
+
+Solaris 10 @command{sh} will try to optimize away a @command{:} command
+(even if it is redirected) in a loop after the first iteration, or in a
+shell function after the first call:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{for i in 1 2 3 ; do : >x$i; done}
+$ @kbd{ls x*}
+x1
+$ @kbd{f () @{ : >$1; @}; f y1; f y2; f y3;}
+$ @kbd{ls y*}
+y1
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+As a workaround, @command{echo} or @command{eval} can be used.
+
+Don't rely on file descriptors 0, 1, and 2 remaining closed in a
+subsidiary program.  If any of these descriptors is closed, the
+operating system may open an unspecified file for the descriptor in the
+new process image.  Posix 2008 says this may be done only if the
+subsidiary program is set-user-ID or set-group-ID, but HP-UX 11.23 does
+it even for ordinary programs, and the next version of Posix will allow
+HP-UX behavior.
+
+If you want a file descriptor above 2 to be inherited into a child
+process, then you must use redirections specific to that command or a
+containing subshell or command group, rather than relying on
+@command{exec} in the shell. In @command{ksh} as well as HP-UX
+@command{sh}, file descriptors above 2 which are opened using
+@samp{exec @var{n}>file} are closed by a subsequent @samp{exec} (such as
+that involved in the fork-and-exec which runs a program or script):
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo 'echo hello >&5' >k}
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t}
+hello
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t}
+hello
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'exec 5>t; ksh ./k; exec 5>&-; cat t}
+./k[1]: 5: cannot open [Bad file number]
+$ @kbd{ksh -c '(ksh ./k) 5>t; cat t'}
+hello
+$ @kbd{ksh -c '@{ ksh ./k; @} 5>t; cat t'}
+hello
+$ @kbd{ksh -c '5>t ksh ./k; cat t}
+hello
+@end example
+
+Don't rely on duplicating a closed file descriptor to cause an
+error.  With Solaris @command{/bin/sh}, failed duplication is silently
+ignored, which can cause unintended leaks to the original file
+descriptor.  In this example, observe the leak to standard output:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'echo hi >&3' 3>&-; echo $?}
+bash: 3: Bad file descriptor
+1
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'echo hi >&3' 3>&-; echo $?}
+hi
+0
+@end example
+
+Fortunately, an attempt to close an already closed file descriptor will
+portably succeed.  Likewise, it is safe to use either style of
+@samp{@var{n}<&-} or @samp{@var{n}>&-} for closing a file descriptor,
+even if it doesn't match the read/write mode that the file descriptor
+was opened with.
+
+DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, such as in
+@samp{mv foo bar >foo} or @samp{rm foo >foo}, even though this is
+perfectly portable among Posix hosts.
+
+A few ancient systems reserved some file descriptors.  By convention,
+file descriptor 3 was opened to @file{/dev/tty} when you logged into
+Eighth Edition (1985) through Tenth Edition Unix (1989).  File
+descriptor 4 had a special use on the Stardent/Kubota Titan (circa
+1990), though we don't now remember what it was.  Both these systems are
+obsolete, so it's now safe to treat file descriptors 3 and 4 like any
+other file descriptors.
+
+On the other hand, you can't portably use multi-digit file descriptors.
+Solaris @command{ksh} doesn't understand any file descriptor larger than
+@samp{9}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'exec 10>&-'; echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'exec 9>&-'; echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'exec 10>&-'; echo $?}
+ksh[1]: exec: 10: not found

+@node Signal Handling
+@section Signal Handling
+@cindex Signal handling in the shell
+@cindex Signals, shells and
+
+Portable handling of signals within the shell is another major source of
+headaches.  This is worsened by the fact that various different, mutually
+incompatible approaches are possible in this area, each with its
+distinctive merits and demerits.  A detailed description of these possible
+approaches, as well as of their pros and cons, can be found in
+@uref{http://www.cons.org/cracauer/sigint.html, this article}.
+
+Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh} automatically traps most signals by default;
+@c See: <http://dbaspot.com/shell/396118-bourne-shell-exit-code-term.html>
+the shell still exits with error upon termination by one of those signals,
+but in such a case the exit status might be somewhat unexpected (even if
+allowed by POSIX, strictly speaking):
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'kill -1 $$'; echo $?} # Will exit 128 + (signal number).
+Hangup
+129
+$ @kbd{/bin/ksh -c 'kill -15 $$'; echo $?} # Likewise.
+Terminated
+143
+$ @kbd{for sig in 1 2 3 15; do}
+> @kbd{  echo $sig:}
+> @kbd{  /bin/sh -c "kill -$s \$\$"; echo $?}
+> @kbd{done}
+signal 1:
+Hangup
+129
+signal 2:
+208
+signal 3:
+208
+signal 15:
+208
+@end example
+
+This gets even worse if one is using the POSIX `wait' interface to get
+details about the shell process terminations: it will result in the shell
+having exited normally, rather than by receiving a signal.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat > foo.c <<'END'}
+#include <stdio.h>    /* for printf */
+#include <stdlib.h>   /* for system */
+#include <sys/wait.h> /* for WIF* macros */
+int main(void)
+@{
+  int status = system ("kill -15 $$");
+  printf ("Terminated by signal: %s\n",
+          WIFSIGNALED (status) ? "yes" : "no");
+  printf ("Exited normally: %s\n",
+          WIFEXITED (status) ? "yes" : "no");
+  return 0;
+@}
+END
+@c $$ font-lock
+$ @kbd{cc -o foo foo.c}
+$ @kbd{./a.out} # On GNU/Linux
+Terminated by signal: no
+Exited normally: yes
+$ @kbd{./a.out} # On Solaris 10
+Terminated by signal: yes
+Exited normally: no
+@end example
+
+Various shells seem to handle @code{SIGQUIT} specially: they ignore it even
+if it is not blocked, and even if the shell is not running interactively
+(in fact, even if the shell has no attached tty); among these shells
+are at least Bash (from version 2 onwards), Zsh 4.3.12, Solaris 10
+@code{/bin/ksh} and @code{/usr/xpg4/bin/sh}, and AT&T @code{ksh93} (2011).
+Still, @code{SIGQUIT} seems to be trappable quite portably within all
+these shells.  OTOH, some other shells doesn't special-case the handling
+of @code{SIGQUIT}; among these shells are at least @code{pdksh} 5.2.14,
+Solaris 10 and NetBSD 5.1 @code{/bin/sh}, and the Almquist Shell 0.5.5.1.
+
+@c See: <http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2009-February/004121.html>
+Some shells (especially Korn shells and derivatives) might try to
+propagate to themselves a signal that has killed a child process; this is
+not a bug, but a conscious design choice (although its overall value might
+be debatable).  The exact details of how this is attained vary from shell
+to shell.  For example, upon running @code{perl -e 'kill 2, $$'}, after
+the perl process has been interrupted AT&T @code{ksh93} (2011) will
+proceed to send itself a @code{SIGINT}, while Solaris 10 @code{/bin/ksh}
+and @code{/usr/xpg4/bin/sh} will proceed to exit with status 130 (i.e.,
+128 + 2). In any case, if there is an active trap associated with
+@code{SIGINT}, those shells will correctly execute it.
+
+@c See: <http://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=51>
+Some Korn shells, when a child process die due receiving a signal with
+signal number @var{n}, can leave in @samp{$?} an exit status of
+256+@var{n} instead of the more common 128+@var{n}.  Observe the
+difference between AT&T @code{ksh93} (2011) and @code{bash} 4.1.5 on
+Debian:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/ksh -c 'sh -c "kill -1 \$\$"; echo $?'}
+/bin/ksh: line 1: 7837: Hangup
+257
+$ @kbd{/bin/bash -c 'sh -c "kill -1 \$\$"; echo $?'}
+/bin/bash: line 1:  7861 Hangup        (sh -c "kill -1 \$\$")
+129
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This @command{ksh} behavior is allowed by POSIX, if implemented with
+due care; see this @uref{http://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=51,
+Austin Group discussion} for more background.  However, if it is not
+implemented with proper care, such a behavior might cause problems
+in some corner cases.  To see why, assume we have a ``wrapper'' script
+like this:
+
+@example
+#!/bin/sh
+# Ignore some signals in the shell only, not in its child processes.
+trap : 1 2 13 15
+wrapped_command "$@@"
+ret=$?
+other_command
+exit $ret
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If @command{wrapped_command} is interrupted by a @code{SIGHUP} (which
+has signal number 1), @code{ret} will be set to 257.  Unless the
+@command{exit} shell builtin is smart enough to understand that such
+a value can only have originated from a signal, and adjust the final
+wait status of the shell appropriately, the value 257 will just get
+truncated to 1 by the closing @code{exit} call, so that a caller of
+the script will have no way to determine that termination by a signal
+was involved.  Observe the different behavior of AT&T @code{ksh93}
+(2011) and @code{bash} 4.1.5 on Debian:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat foo.sh}
+#!/bin/sh
+sh -c 'kill -1 $$'
+ret=$?
+echo $ret
+exit $ret
+$ @kbd{/bin/ksh foo.sh; echo $?}
+foo.sh: line 2: 12479: Hangup
+257

+$ @kbd{/bin/bash foo.sh; echo $?}
+foo.sh: line 2: 12487 Hangup        (sh -c 'kill -1 $$')

+@node File System Conventions
+@section File System Conventions
+@cindex File system conventions
+
+Autoconf uses shell-script processing extensively, so the file names
+that it processes should not contain characters that are special to the
+shell.  Special characters include space, tab, newline, NUL, and
+the following:
+
+@example
+" # $ & ' ( ) * ; < = > ? [ \ ` |
+@end example
+
+Also, file names should not begin with @samp{~} or @samp{-}, and should
+contain neither @samp{-} immediately after @samp{/} nor @samp{~}
+immediately after @samp{:}.  On Posix-like platforms, directory names
+should not contain @samp{:}, as this runs afoul of @samp{:} used as the
+path separator.
+
+These restrictions apply not only to the files that you distribute, but
+also to the absolute file names of your source, build, and destination
+directories.
+
+On some Posix-like platforms, @samp{!} and @samp{^} are special too, so
+they should be avoided.
+
+Posix lets implementations treat leading @file{//} specially, but
+requires leading @file{///} and beyond to be equivalent to @file{/}.
+Most Unix variants treat @file{//} like @file{/}.  However, some treat
+@file{//} as a ``super-root'' that can provide access to files that are
+not otherwise reachable from @file{/}.  The super-root tradition began
+with Apollo Domain/OS, which died out long ago, but unfortunately Cygwin
+has revived it.
+
+While @command{autoconf} and friends are usually run on some Posix
+variety, they can be used on other systems, most notably DOS
+variants.  This impacts several assumptions regarding file names.
+
+@noindent
+For example, the following code:
+
+@example
+case $foo_dir in
+  /*) # Absolute
+     ;;
+  *)
+     foo_dir=$dots$foo_dir ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+fails to properly detect absolute file names on those systems, because
+they can use a drivespec, and usually use a backslash as directory
+separator.  If you want to be portable to DOS variants (at the
+price of rejecting valid but oddball Posix file names like @file{a:\b}),
+you can check for absolute file names like this:
+
+@cindex absolute file names, detect
+@example
+case $foo_dir in
+  [\\/]* | ?:[\\/]* ) # Absolute
+     ;;
+  *)
+     foo_dir=$dots$foo_dir ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Make sure you quote the brackets if appropriate and keep the backslash as
+first character (@pxref{case, , Limitations of Shell Builtins}).
+
+Also, because the colon is used as part of a drivespec, these systems don't
+use it as path separator.  When creating or accessing paths, you can use the
+@code{PATH_SEPARATOR} output variable instead.  @command{configure} sets this
+to the appropriate value for the build system (@samp{:} or @samp{;}) when it
+starts up.
+
+File names need extra care as well.  While DOS variants
+that are Posixy enough to run @command{autoconf} (such as DJGPP)
+are usually able to handle long file names properly, there are still
+limitations that can seriously break packages.  Several of these issues
+can be easily detected by the
+@uref{ftp://@/ftp.gnu.org/@/gnu/@/non-gnu/@/doschk/@/doschk-1.1.tar.gz, doschk}
+package.
+
+A short overview follows; problems are marked with SFN/LFN to
+indicate where they apply: SFN means the issues are only relevant to
+plain DOS, not to DOS under Microsoft Windows
+variants, while LFN identifies problems that exist even under
+Microsoft Windows variants.
+
+@table @asis
+@item No multiple dots (SFN)
+DOS cannot handle multiple dots in file names.  This is an especially
+important thing to remember when building a portable configure script,
+as @command{autoconf} uses a .in suffix for template files.
+
+This is perfectly OK on Posix variants:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])
+AC_CONFIG_FILES([source.c foo.bar])
+AC_OUTPUT
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but it causes problems on DOS, as it requires @samp{config.h.in},
+@samp{source.c.in} and @samp{foo.bar.in}.  To make your package more portable
+to DOS-based environments, you should use this instead:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h:config.hin])
+AC_CONFIG_FILES([source.c:source.cin foo.bar:foobar.in])
+AC_OUTPUT
+@end example
+
+@item No leading dot (SFN)
+DOS cannot handle file names that start with a dot.  This is usually
+not important for @command{autoconf}.
+
+@item Case insensitivity (LFN)
+DOS is case insensitive, so you cannot, for example, have both a
+file called @samp{INSTALL} and a directory called @samp{install}.  This
+also affects @command{make}; if there's a file called @samp{INSTALL} in
+the directory, @samp{make install} does nothing (unless the
+@samp{install} target is marked as PHONY).
+
+@item The 8+3 limit (SFN)
+Because the DOS file system only stores the first 8 characters of
+the file name and the first 3 of the extension, those must be unique.
+That means that @file{foobar-part1.c}, @file{foobar-part2.c} and
+@file{foobar-prettybird.c} all resolve to the same file name
+(@file{FOOBAR-P.C}).  The same goes for @file{foo.bar} and
+@file{foo.bartender}.
+
+The 8+3 limit is not usually a problem under Microsoft Windows, as it
+uses numeric
+tails in the short version of file names to make them unique.  However, a
+registry setting can turn this behavior off.  While this makes it
+possible to share file trees containing long file names between SFN
+and LFN environments, it also means the above problem applies there
+as well.
+
+@item Invalid characters (LFN)
+Some characters are invalid in DOS file names, and should therefore
+be avoided.  In a LFN environment, these are @samp{/}, @samp{\},
+@samp{?}, @samp{*}, @samp{:}, @samp{<}, @samp{>}, @samp{|} and @samp{"}.
+In a SFN environment, other characters are also invalid.  These
+include @samp{+}, @samp{,}, @samp{[} and @samp{]}.
+
+@item Invalid names (LFN)
+Some DOS file names are reserved, and cause problems if you
+try to use files with those names.  These names include @file{CON},
+@file{AUX}, @file{COM1}, @file{COM2}, @file{COM3}, @file{COM4},
+@file{LPT1}, @file{LPT2}, @file{LPT3}, @file{NUL}, and @file{PRN}.
+File names are case insensitive, so even names like
+@file{aux/config.guess} are disallowed.

+@node Shell Pattern Matching
+@section Shell Pattern Matching
+@cindex Shell pattern matching
+
+Nowadays portable patterns can use negated character classes like
+@samp{[!-aeiou]}.  The older syntax @samp{[^-aeiou]} is supported by
+some shells but not others; hence portable scripts should never use
+@samp{^} as the first character of a bracket pattern.
+
+Outside the C locale, patterns like @samp{[a-z]} are problematic since
+they may match characters that are not lower-case letters.
+
+@node Shell Substitutions
+@section Shell Substitutions
+@cindex Shell substitutions
+
+Contrary to a persistent urban legend, the Bourne shell does not
+systematically split variables and back-quoted expressions, in particular
+on the right-hand side of assignments and in the argument of @code{case}.
+For instance, the following code:
+
+@example
+case "$given_srcdir" in
+.)  top_srcdir="`echo "$dots" | sed 's|/$||'`" ;;
+*)  top_srcdir="$dots$given_srcdir" ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+is more readable when written as:
+
+@example
+case $given_srcdir in
+.)  top_srcdir=`echo "$dots" | sed 's|/$||'` ;;
+*)  top_srcdir=$dots$given_srcdir ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and in fact it is even @emph{more} portable: in the first case of the
+first attempt, the computation of @code{top_srcdir} is not portable,
+since not all shells properly understand @code{"`@dots{}"@dots{}"@dots{}`"},
+for example Solaris 10 ksh:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{foo="`echo " bar" | sed 's, ,,'`"}
+ksh: : cannot execute
+ksh: bar | sed 's, ,,': cannot execute
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Posix does not specify behavior for this sequence.  On the other hand,
+behavior for @code{"`@dots{}\"@dots{}\"@dots{}`"} is specified by Posix,
+but in practice, not all shells understand it the same way: pdksh 5.2.14
+prints spurious quotes when in Posix mode:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo "`echo \"hello\"`"}
+hello
+$ @kbd{set -o posix}
+$ @kbd{echo "`echo \"hello\"`"}
+"hello"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+There is just no portable way to use double-quoted strings inside
+double-quoted back-quoted expressions (pfew!).
+
+Bash 4.1 has a bug where quoted empty strings adjacent to unquoted
+parameter expansions are elided during word splitting.  Meanwhile, zsh
+does not perform word splitting except when in Bourne compatibility
+mode.  In the example below, the correct behavior is to have five
+arguments to the function, and exactly two spaces on either side of the
+middle @samp{-}, since word splitting collapses multiple spaces in
+@samp{$f} but leaves empty arguments intact.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'n() @{ echo "$#$@@"; @}; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'}
+3- - -
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'n() @{ echo "$#$@@"; @}; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'}
+5-  -  -
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'n() @{ echo "$#$@@"; @}; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'}
+3-   -   -
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'emulate sh;}
+> @kbd{n() @{ echo "$#$@@"; @}; f="  -  "; n - ""$f"" -'}
+5-  -  -
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You can work around this by doing manual word splitting, such as using
+@samp{"$str" $list} rather than @samp{"$str"$list}.
+
+There are also portability pitfalls with particular expansions:
+
+@table @code
+@item $@@
+@cindex @code{"$@@"}
+One of the most famous shell-portability issues is related to
+@samp{"$@@"}.  When there are no positional arguments, Posix says
+that @samp{"$@@"} is supposed to be equivalent to nothing, but the
+original Unix version 7 Bourne shell treated it as equivalent to
+@samp{""} instead, and this behavior survives in later implementations
+like Digital Unix 5.0.
+
+The traditional way to work around this portability problem is to use
+@samp{$@{1+"$@@"@}}.  Unfortunately this method does not work with
+Zsh (3.x and 4.x), which is used on Mac OS X@.  When emulating
+the Bourne shell, Zsh performs word splitting on @samp{$@{1+"$@@"@}}:
+
+@example
+zsh $ @kbd{emulate sh}
+zsh $ @kbd{for i in "$@@"; do echo $i; done}
+Hello World
+!
+zsh $ @kbd{for i in $@{1+"$@@"@}; do echo $i; done}
+Hello
+World
+!
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Zsh handles plain @samp{"$@@"} properly, but we can't use plain
+@samp{"$@@"} because of the portability problems mentioned above.
+One workaround relies on Zsh's ``global aliases'' to convert
+@samp{$@{1+"$@@"@}} into @samp{"$@@"} by itself:
+
+@example
+test "$@{ZSH_VERSION+set@}" = set && alias -g '$@{1+"$@@"@}'='"$@@"'
+@end example
+
+Zsh only recognizes this alias when a shell word matches it exactly;
+@samp{"foo"$@{1+"$@@"@}} remains subject to word splitting.  Since this
+case always yields at least one shell word, use plain @samp{"$@@"}.
+
+A more conservative workaround is to avoid @samp{"$@@"} if it is
+possible that there may be no positional arguments.  For example,
+instead of:
+
+@example
+cat conftest.c "$@@"
+@end example
+
+you can use this instead:
+
+@example
+case $# in
+0) cat conftest.c;;
+*) cat conftest.c "$@@";;
+esac
+@end example
+
+Autoconf macros often use the @command{set} command to update
+@samp{$@@}, so if you are writing shell code intended for
+@command{configure} you should not assume that the value of @samp{$@@}
+persists for any length of time.
+
+
+@item $@{10@}
+@cindex positional parameters
+The 10th, 11th, @dots{} positional parameters can be accessed only after
+a @code{shift}.  The 7th Edition shell reported an error if given
+@code{$@{10@}}, and
+Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh} still acts that way:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{set 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10}
+$ @kbd{echo $@{10@}}
+bad substitution
+@end example
+
+Conversely, not all shells obey the Posix rule that when braces are
+omitted, multiple digits beyond a @samp{$} imply the single-digit
+positional parameter expansion concatenated with the remaining literal
+digits.  To work around the issue, you must use braces.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'set a b c d e f g h i j; echo $10 $@{1@}0'}
+a0 a0
+$ @kbd{dash -c 'set a b c d e f g h i j; echo $10 $@{1@}0'}
+j a0
+@end example
+
+@item $@{@var{var}:-@var{value}@}
+@c Info cannot handle `:' in index entries.
+@ifnotinfo
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}:-@var{value}@}}
+@end ifnotinfo
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}-@var{value}@}}
+Old BSD shells, including the Ultrix @code{sh}, don't accept the
+colon for any shell substitution, and complain and die.
+Similarly for $@{@var{var}:=@var{value}@}, $@{@var{var}:?@var{value}@}, etc.
+However, all shells that support functions allow the use of colon in
+shell substitution, and since m4sh requires functions, you can portably
+use null variable substitution patterns in configure scripts.
+
+@item $@{@var{var}+@var{value}@}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}+@var{value}@}}
+When using @samp{$@{@var{var}-@var{value}@}} or
+@samp{$@{@var{var}-@var{value}@}} for providing alternate substitutions,
+@var{value} must either be a single shell word, quoted, or in the
+context of an unquoted here-document.  Solaris
+@command{/bin/sh} complains otherwise.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'echo $@{a-b c@}'}
+/bin/sh: bad substitution
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'echo $@{a-'\''b c'\''@}'}
+b c
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'echo "$@{a-b c@}"'}
+b c
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'cat <<EOF
+$@{a-b c@}
+EOF}
+b c
+@end example
+
+According to Posix, if an expansion occurs inside double quotes, then
+the use of unquoted double quotes within @var{value} is unspecified, and
+any single quotes become literal characters; in that case, escaping must
+be done with backslash.  Likewise, the use of unquoted here-documents is
+a case where double quotes have unspecified results:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'echo "$@{a-"b  c"@}"'}
+/bin/sh: bad substitution
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'echo "$@{a-"b  c"@}"'}
+b c
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'echo "$@{a-"b  c"@}"'}
+b  c
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'a=; echo $@{a+'\''b  c'\''@}'}
+b  c
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "$@{a+'\''b  c'\''@}"'}
+'b  c'
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "$@{a+\"b  c\"@}"'}
+"b  c"
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'a=; echo "$@{a+b  c@}"'}
+b  c
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'cat <<EOF
+$@{a-"b  c"@}
+EOF'}

+b  c

+EOF'}
+'b  c'
+@end example
+
+Perhaps the easiest way to work around quoting issues in a manner
+portable to all shells is to place the results in a temporary variable,
+then use @samp{$t} as the @var{value}, rather than trying to inline
+the expression needing quoting.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 't="b  c\"'\''@}\\"; echo "$@{a-$t@}"'}
+b  c"'@}\
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 't="b  c\"'\''@}\\"; echo "$@{a-$t@}"'}
+b  c"'@}\
+$ @kbd{bash -c 't="b  c\"'\''@}\\"; echo "$@{a-$t@}"'}
+b  c"'@}\
+@end example
+
+@item $@{@var{var}=@var{value}@}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}=@var{value}@}}
+When using @samp{$@{@var{var}=@var{value}@}} to assign a default value
+to @var{var}, remember that even though the assignment to @var{var} does
+not undergo file name expansion, the result of the variable expansion
+does unless the expansion occurred within double quotes.  In particular,
+when using @command{:} followed by unquoted variable expansion for the
+side effect of setting a default value, if the final value of
+@samp{$var} contains any globbing characters (either from @var{value} or
+from prior contents), the shell has to spend time performing file name
+expansion and field splitting even though those results will not be
+used.  Therefore, it is a good idea to consider double quotes when performing
+default initialization; while remembering how this impacts any quoting
+characters appearing in @var{value}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{time bash -c ': "$@{a=/usr/bin/*@}"; echo "$a"'}
+/usr/bin/*
+
+real	0m0.005s
+user	0m0.002s
+sys	0m0.003s
+$ @kbd{time bash -c ': $@{a=/usr/bin/*@}; echo "$a"'}
+/usr/bin/*
+
+real	0m0.039s
+user	0m0.026s
+sys	0m0.009s
+$ @kbd{time bash -c 'a=/usr/bin/*; : $@{a=noglob@}; echo "$a"'}
+/usr/bin/*
+
+real	0m0.031s
+user	0m0.020s
+sys	0m0.010s
+
+$ @kbd{time bash -c 'a=/usr/bin/*; : "$@{a=noglob@}"; echo "$a"'}
+/usr/bin/*
+
+real	0m0.006s
+user	0m0.002s
+sys	0m0.003s
+@end example
+
+As with @samp{+} and @samp{-}, you must use quotes when using @samp{=}
+if the @var{value} contains more than one shell word; either single
+quotes for just the @var{value}, or double quotes around the entire
+expansion:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{: $@{var1='Some words'@}}
+$ @kbd{: "$@{var2=like this@}"}
+$ @kbd{echo $var1 $var2}
+Some words like this
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+otherwise some shells, such as Solaris @command{/bin/sh} or on Digital
+Unix V 5.0, die because of a ``bad substitution''.  Meanwhile, Posix
+requires that with @samp{=}, quote removal happens prior to the
+assignment, and the expansion be the final contents of @var{var} without
+quoting (and thus subject to field splitting), in contrast to the
+behavior with @samp{-} passing the quoting through to the final
+expansion.  However, @command{bash} 4.1 does not obey this rule.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'echo $@{var-a\ \ b@}'}
+a  b
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'echo $@{var=a\ \ b@}'}
+a b
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'echo $@{var=a\ \ b@}'}
+a  b
+@end example
+
+Finally, Posix states that when mixing @samp{$@{a=b@}} with regular
+commands, it is unspecified whether the assignments affect the parent
+shell environment.  It is best to perform assignments independently from
+commands, to avoid the problems demonstrated in this example:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'x= y=$@{x:=b@} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'}
++b+b+
+-b-
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'x= y=$@{x:=b@} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'}
+++b+
+--
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'x= y=$@{x:=b@} sh -c "echo +\$x+\$y+";echo -$x-'}
++b+b+
+--
+@end example
+
+@item $@{@var{var}=@var{value}@}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}=@var{literal}@}}
+Solaris @command{/bin/sh} has a frightening bug in its handling of
+literal assignments.  Imagine you need set a variable to a string containing
+@samp{@}}.  This @samp{@}} character confuses Solaris @command{/bin/sh}
+when the affected variable was already set.  This bug can be exercised
+by running:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{unset foo}
+$ @kbd{foo=$@{foo='@}'@}}
+$ @kbd{echo $foo}
+@}
+$ @kbd{foo=$@{foo='@}'   # no error; this hints to what the bug is}
+$ @kbd{echo $foo}
+@}
+$ @kbd{foo=$@{foo='@}'@}}
+$ @kbd{echo $foo}
+@}@}
+ ^ ugh!
+@end example
+
+It seems that @samp{@}} is interpreted as matching @samp{$@{}, even
+though it is enclosed in single quotes.  The problem doesn't happen
+using double quotes, or when using a temporary variable holding the
+problematic string.
+
+@item $@{@var{var}=@var{expanded-value}@}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}=@var{expanded-value}@}}
+On Ultrix,
+running
+
+@example
+default="yu,yaa"
+: $@{var="$default"@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+sets @var{var} to @samp{M-yM-uM-,M-yM-aM-a}, i.e., the 8th bit of
+each char is set.  You don't observe the phenomenon using a simple
+@samp{echo $var} since apparently the shell resets the 8th bit when it
+expands $var.  Here are two means to make this shell confess its sins:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat -v <<EOF
+$var
+EOF}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{set | grep '^var=' | cat -v}
+@end example
+
+One classic incarnation of this bug is:
+
+@example
+default="a b c"
+: $@{list="$default"@}
+for c in $list; do
+  echo $c
+done
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You'll get @samp{a b c} on a single line.  Why?  Because there are no
+spaces in @samp{$list}: there are @samp{M- }, i.e., spaces with the 8th
+bit set, hence no IFS splitting is performed!!!
+
+One piece of good news is that Ultrix works fine with @samp{:
+$@{list=$default@}}; i.e., if you @emph{don't} quote.  The bad news is
+then that QNX 4.25 then sets @var{list} to the @emph{last} item of
+@var{default}!
+
+The portable way out consists in using a double assignment, to switch
+the 8th bit twice on Ultrix:
+
+@example
+list=$@{list="$default"@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+@dots{}but beware of the @samp{@}} bug from Solaris (see above).  For safety,
+use:
+
+@example
+test "$@{var+set@}" = set || var=@var{@{value@}}
+@end example
+
+@item $@{#@var{var}@}
+@itemx $@{@var{var}%@var{word}@}
+@itemx $@{@var{var}%%@var{word}@}
+@itemx $@{@var{var}#@var{word}@}
+@itemx $@{@var{var}##@var{word}@}
+@cindex @code{$@{#@var{var}@}}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}%@var{word}@}}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}%%@var{word}@}}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}#@var{word}@}}
+@cindex @code{$@{@var{var}##@var{word}@}}
+Posix requires support for these usages, but they do not work with many
+traditional shells, e.g., Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}.
+
+Also, @command{pdksh} 5.2.14 mishandles some @var{word} forms.  For
+example if @samp{$1} is @samp{a/b} and @samp{$2} is @samp{a}, then
+@samp{$@{1#$2@}} should yield @samp{/b}, but with @command{pdksh} it
+yields the empty string.
+
+
+@item `@var{commands}`
+@cindex @code{`@var{commands}`}
+@cindex Command Substitution
+Posix requires shells to trim all trailing newlines from command
+output before substituting it, so assignments like
+@samp{dir=`echo "$file" | tr a A`} do not work as expected if
+@samp{$file} ends in a newline.
+
+While in general it makes no sense, do not substitute a single builtin
+with side effects, because Ash 0.2, trying to optimize, does not fork a
+subshell to perform the command.
+
+For instance, if you wanted to check that @command{cd} is silent, do not
+use @samp{test -z "`cd /`"} because the following can happen:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{pwd}
+/tmp
+$ @kbd{test -z "`cd /`" && pwd}
+/
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The result of @samp{foo=`exit 1`} is left as an exercise to the reader.
+
+The MSYS shell leaves a stray byte in the expansion of a double-quoted
+command substitution of a native program, if the end of the substitution
+is not aligned with the end of the double quote.  This may be worked
+around by inserting another pair of quotes:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo "`printf 'foo\r\n'` bar" > broken}
+$ @kbd{echo "`printf 'foo\r\n'`"" bar" | cmp - broken}
+- broken differ: char 4, line 1
+@end example
+
+Upon interrupt or SIGTERM, some shells may abort a command substitution,
+replace it with a null string, and wrongly evaluate the enclosing
+command before entering the trap or ending the script.  This can lead to
+spurious errors:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'if test `sleep 5; echo hi` = hi; then echo yes; fi'}
+$ @kbd{^C}
+sh: test: hi: unexpected operator/operand
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You can avoid this by assigning the command substitution to a temporary
+variable:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'res=`sleep 5; echo hi`
+         if test "x$res" = xhi; then echo yes; fi'}
+$ @kbd{^C}
+@end example
+
+@item $(@var{commands})
+@cindex @code{$(@var{commands})}
+This construct is meant to replace @samp{`@var{commands}`},
+and it has most of the problems listed under @code{`@var{commands}`}.
+
+This construct can be
+nested while this is impossible to do portably with back quotes.
+Unfortunately it is not yet universally supported.  Most notably, even recent
+releases of Solaris don't support it:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{showrev -c /bin/sh | grep version}
+Command version: SunOS 5.10 Generic 121005-03 Oct 2006
+$ @kbd{echo $(echo blah)}
+syntax error: `(' unexpected
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+nor does IRIX 6.5's Bourne shell:
+@example
+$ @kbd{uname -a}
+IRIX firebird-image 6.5 07151432 IP22
+$ @kbd{echo $(echo blah)}
+$(echo blah)
+@end example
+
+If you do use @samp{$(@var{commands})}, make sure that the commands
+do not start with a parenthesis, as that would cause confusion with
+a different notation @samp{$((@var{expression}))} that in modern
+shells is an arithmetic expression not a command.  To avoid the
+confusion, insert a space between the two opening parentheses.
+
+Avoid @var{commands} that contain unbalanced parentheses in
+here-documents, comments, or case statement patterns, as many shells
+mishandle them.  For example, Bash 3.1, @samp{ksh88}, @command{pdksh}
+5.2.14, and Zsh 4.2.6 all mishandle the following valid command:
+
+@example
+echo $(case x in x) echo hello;; esac)
+@end example
+
+
+@item $((@var{expression}))
+@cindex @code{$((@var{expression}))}
+Arithmetic expansion is not portable as some shells (most
+notably Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}) don't support it.
+
+Among shells that do support @samp{$(( ))}, not all of them obey the
+Posix rule that octal and hexadecimal constants must be recognized:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'}
+24
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'}
+26
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'emulate sh; echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'}
+24
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'echo $(( 010 + 0x10 ))'}
+pdksh:  010 + 0x10 : bad number `0x10'
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'echo $(( 010 ))'}
+10
+@end example
+
+When it is available, using arithmetic expansion provides a noticeable
+speedup in script execution; but testing for support requires
+@command{eval} to avoid syntax errors.  The following construct is used
+by @code{AS_VAR_ARITH} to provide arithmetic computation when all
+arguments are provided in decimal and without a leading zero, and all
+operators are properly quoted and appear as distinct arguments:
+
+@example
+if ( eval 'test $(( 1 + 1 )) = 2' ) 2>/dev/null; then
+  eval 'func_arith ()
+  @{
+    func_arith_result=$(( $* ))
+  @}'
+else
+  func_arith ()
+  @{
+    func_arith_result=`expr "$@@"`
+  @}
+fi
+func_arith 1 + 1
+foo=$func_arith_result
+@end example
+
+
+@item ^
+@cindex @code{^} quoting
+Always quote @samp{^}, otherwise traditional shells such as
+@command{/bin/sh} on Solaris 10 treat this like @samp{|}.

+
+
+@node Assignments
+@section Assignments
+@cindex Shell assignments
+
+When setting several variables in a row, be aware that the order of the
+evaluation is undefined.  For instance @samp{foo=1 foo=2; echo $foo}
+gives @samp{1} with Solaris @command{/bin/sh}, but @samp{2} with Bash.
+You must use
+@samp{;} to enforce the order: @samp{foo=1; foo=2; echo $foo}.
+
+Don't rely on the following to find @file{subdir/program}:
+
+@example
+PATH=subdir$PATH_SEPARATOR$PATH program
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+as this does not work with Zsh 3.0.6.  Use something like this
+instead:
+
+@example
+(PATH=subdir$PATH_SEPARATOR$PATH; export PATH; exec program)
+@end example
+
+Don't rely on the exit status of an assignment: Ash 0.2 does not change
+the status and propagates that of the last statement:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{false || foo=bar; echo $?}
+1
+$ @kbd{false || foo=`:`; echo $?}
+0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and to make things even worse, QNX 4.25 just sets the exit status
+to 0 in any case:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{foo=`exit 1`; echo $?}
+0
+@end example
+
+To assign default values, follow this algorithm:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+If the default value is a literal and does not contain any closing
+brace, use:
+
+@example
+: "$@{var='my literal'@}"
+@end example
+
+@item
+If the default value contains no closing brace, has to be expanded, and
+the variable being initialized is not intended to be IFS-split
+(i.e., it's not a list), then use:
+
+@example
+: $@{var="$default"@}
+@end example
+
+@item
+If the default value contains no closing brace, has to be expanded, and
+the variable being initialized is intended to be IFS-split (i.e., it's a list),
+then use:
+
+@example
+var=$@{var="$default"@}
+@end example
+
+@item
+If the default value contains a closing brace, then use:
+
+@example
+test "$@{var+set@}" = set || var="has a '@}'"
+@end example
+@end enumerate
+
+In most cases @samp{var=$@{var="$default"@}} is fine, but in case of
+doubt, just use the last form.  @xref{Shell Substitutions}, items
+@samp{$@{@var{var}:-@var{value}@}} and @samp{$@{@var{var}=@var{value}@}}
+for the rationale.
+
+@node Parentheses
+@section Parentheses in Shell Scripts
+@cindex Shell parentheses
+
+Beware of two opening parentheses in a row, as many shell
+implementations treat them specially, and Posix says that a portable
+script cannot use @samp{((} outside the @samp{$((} form used for shell
+arithmetic.  In traditional shells, @samp{((cat))} behaves like
+@samp{(cat)}; but many shells, including
+Bash and the Korn shell, treat @samp{((cat))} as an arithmetic
+expression equivalent to @samp{let "cat"}, and may or may not report an
+error when they detect that @samp{cat} is not a number.  As another
+example, @samp{pdksh} 5.2.14 does not treat the following code
+as a traditional shell would:
+
+@example
+if ((true) || false); then
+  echo ok
+fi
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+To work around this problem, insert a space between the two opening
+parentheses.  There is a similar problem and workaround with
+@samp{$((}; see @ref{Shell Substitutions}.
+
+@node Slashes
+@section Slashes in Shell Scripts
+@cindex Shell slashes
+
+Unpatched Tru64 5.1 @command{sh} omits the last slash of command-line
+arguments that contain two trailing slashes:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo / // /// //// .// //.}
+/ / // /// ./ //.
+$ @kbd{x=//}
+$ @kbd{eval "echo \$x"}
+/
+$ @kbd{set -x}
+$ @kbd{echo abc | tr -t ab //}
++ echo abc
++ tr -t ab /
+/bc
+@end example
+
+Unpatched Tru64 4.0 @command{sh} adds a slash after @samp{"$var"} if the
+variable is empty and the second double-quote is followed by a word that
+begins and ends with slash:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -xc 'p=; echo "$p"/ouch/'}
+p=
++ echo //ouch/
+//ouch/

+@node Special Shell Variables

+@cindex Special shell variables
+
+Some shell variables should not be used, since they can have a deep
+influence on the behavior of the shell.  In order to recover a sane
+behavior from the shell, some variables should be unset; M4sh takes
+care of this and provides fallback values, whenever needed, to cater
+for a very old @file{/bin/sh} that does not support @command{unset}.
+(@pxref{Portable Shell, , Portable Shell Programming}).
+
+As a general rule, shell variable names containing a lower-case letter
+are safe; you can define and use these variables without worrying about
+their effect on the underlying system, and without worrying about
+whether the shell changes them unexpectedly.  (The exception is the
+shell variable @code{status}, as described below.)
+
+Here is a list of names that are known to cause trouble.  This list is
+not exhaustive, but you should be safe if you avoid the name
+@code{status} and names containing only upper-case letters and
+underscores.
+
+@c Alphabetical order, case insensitive, `A' before `a'.
+@table @code
+@item ?
+Not all shells correctly reset @samp{$?} after conditionals (@pxref{if,
+, Limitations of Shell Builtins}).  Not all shells manage @samp{$?}
+correctly in shell functions (@pxref{Shell Functions}) or in traps
+(@pxref{trap, , Limitations of Shell Builtins}).  Not all shells reset
+@samp{$?} to zero after an empty command.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'false; $empty; echo $?'}
+0
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'false; $empty; echo $?'}
+1
+@end example
+
+@item _
+@evindex _
+Many shells reserve @samp{$_} for various purposes, e.g., the name of
+the last command executed.
+
+@item BIN_SH
+@evindex BIN_SH
+In Tru64, if @env{BIN_SH} is set to @code{xpg4}, subsidiary invocations of
+the standard shell conform to Posix.
+
+@item CDPATH
+@evindex CDPATH
+When this variable is set it specifies a list of directories to search
+when invoking @code{cd} with a relative file name that did not start
+with @samp{./} or @samp{../}.  Posix
+1003.1-2001 says that if a nonempty directory name from @env{CDPATH}
+is used successfully, @code{cd} prints the resulting absolute
+file name.  Unfortunately this output can break idioms like
+@samp{abs=`cd src && pwd`} because @code{abs} receives the name twice.
+Also, many shells do not conform to this part of Posix; for
+example, @command{zsh} prints the result only if a directory name
+other than @file{.} was chosen from @env{CDPATH}.
+
+In practice the shells that have this problem also support
+@command{unset}, so you can work around the problem as follows:
+
+@example
+(unset CDPATH) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset CDPATH
+@end example
+
+You can also avoid output by ensuring that your directory name is
+absolute or anchored at @samp{./}, as in @samp{abs=`cd ./src && pwd`}.
+
+Configure scripts use M4sh, which automatically unsets @env{CDPATH} if
+possible, so you need not worry about this problem in those scripts.
+
+@item CLICOLOR_FORCE
+@evindex CLICOLOR_FORCE
+When this variable is set, some implementations of tools like
+@command{ls} attempt to add color to their output via terminal escape
+sequences, even when the output is not directed to a terminal, and can
+thus cause spurious failures in scripts.  Configure scripts use M4sh,
+which automatically unsets this variable.
+
+@item DUALCASE
+@evindex DUALCASE
+In the MKS shell, case statements and file name generation are
+case-insensitive unless @env{DUALCASE} is nonzero.
+Autoconf-generated scripts export this variable when they start up.
+
+@item ENV
+@itemx MAIL
+@itemx MAILPATH
+@itemx PS1
+@itemx PS2
+@itemx PS4
+@evindex ENV
+@evindex MAIL
+@evindex MAILPATH
+@evindex PS1
+@evindex PS2
+@evindex PS4
+These variables should not matter for shell scripts, since they are
+supposed to affect only interactive shells.  However, at least one
+shell (the pre-3.0 UWIN Korn shell) gets confused about
+whether it is interactive, which means that (for example) a @env{PS1}
+with a side effect can unexpectedly modify @samp{$?}.  To work around
+this bug, M4sh scripts (including @file{configure} scripts) do something
+like this:
+
+@example
+(unset ENV) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset ENV MAIL MAILPATH
+PS1='$ '
+PS2='> '
+PS4='+ '
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(actually, there is some complication due to bugs in @command{unset};
+@pxref{unset, , Limitations of Shell Builtins}).
+
+@item FPATH
+@evindex FPATH
+The Korn shell uses @env{FPATH} to find shell functions, so avoid
+@env{FPATH} in portable scripts.  @env{FPATH} is consulted after
+@env{PATH}, but you still need to be wary of tests that use @env{PATH}
+to find whether a command exists, since they might report the wrong
+result if @env{FPATH} is also set.
+
+@item GREP_OPTIONS
+@evindex GREP_OPTIONS
+When this variable is set, some implementations of @command{grep} honor
+these options, even if the options include direction to enable colored
+output via terminal escape sequences, and the result can cause spurious
+failures when the output is not directed to a terminal.  Configure
+scripts use M4sh, which automatically unsets this variable.
+
+@item IFS
+@evindex IFS
+Long ago, shell scripts inherited @env{IFS} from the environment,
+but this caused many problems so modern shells ignore any environment
+settings for @env{IFS}.
+
+Don't set the first character of @env{IFS} to backslash.  Indeed,
+Bourne shells use the first character (backslash) when joining the
+components in @samp{"$@@"} and some shells then reinterpret (!)@: the
+backslash escapes, so you can end up with backspace and other strange
+characters.
+
+The proper value for @env{IFS} (in regular code, not when performing
+splits) is @samp{@key{SPC}@key{TAB}@key{RET}}.  The first character is
+especially important, as it is used to join the arguments in @samp{$*};
+however, note that traditional shells, but also bash-2.04, fail to adhere
+to this and join with a space anyway.
+
+M4sh guarantees that @env{IFS} will have the default value at the
+beginning of a script, and many macros within autoconf rely on this
+setting.  It is okay to use blocks of shell code that temporarily change
+the value of @env{IFS} in order to split on another character, but
+remember to restore it before expanding further macros.
+
+Unsetting @code{IFS} instead of resetting it to the default sequence
+is not suggested, since code that tries to save and restore the
+variable's value will incorrectly reset it to an empty value, thus
+disabling field splitting:
+
+@example
+unset IFS
+# default separators used for field splitting
+
+save_IFS=$IFS
+IFS=:
+# ...
+IFS=$save_IFS
+# no field splitting performed
+@end example

+You should set all these variables to @samp{C} because so much

+
+@item LANGUAGE

+
+These locale environment variables are GNU extensions.  They
+are treated like their Posix brethren (@env{LC_COLLATE},
+etc.)@: as described above.
+
+@item LINENO
+@evindex LINENO
+Most modern shells provide the current line number in @code{LINENO}.
+Its value is the line number of the beginning of the current command.
+M4sh, and hence Autoconf, attempts to execute @command{configure} with
+a shell that supports @code{LINENO}.  If no such shell is available, it
+attempts to implement @code{LINENO} with a Sed prepass that replaces each
+instance of the string @code{$LINENO} (not followed by an alphanumeric
+character) with the line's number.  In M4sh scripts you should execute
+@code{AS_LINENO_PREPARE} so that these workarounds are included in
+your script; configure scripts do this automatically in @code{AC_INIT}.
+
+You should not rely on @code{LINENO} within @command{eval} or shell
+functions, as the behavior differs in practice.  The presence of a
+quoted newline within simple commands can alter which line number is
+used as the starting point for @code{$LINENO} substitutions within that
+command.  Also, the possibility of the Sed prepass means that you should
+not rely on @code{$LINENO} when quoted, when in here-documents, or when
+line continuations are used.  Subshells should be OK, though.  In the
+following example, lines 1, 9, and 14 are portable, but the other
+instances of @code{$LINENO} do not have deterministic values:
+
+@example

+
+@item NULLCMD
+@evindex NULLCMD
+When executing the command @samp{>foo}, @command{zsh} executes
+@samp{$NULLCMD >foo} unless it is operating in Bourne shell
+compatibility mode and the @command{zsh} version is newer
+than 3.1.6-dev-18.  If you are using an older @command{zsh}
+and forget to set @env{NULLCMD},
+your script might be suspended waiting for data on its standard input.
+
+@item options

+For @command{zsh} 4.3.10, @env{options} is treated as an associative

+
+@item PATH_SEPARATOR
+@evindex PATH_SEPARATOR
+On DJGPP systems, the @env{PATH_SEPARATOR} environment
+variable can be set to either @samp{:} or @samp{;} to control the path
+separator Bash uses to set up certain environment variables (such as
+@env{PATH}).  You can set this variable to @samp{;} if you want
+@command{configure} to use @samp{;} as a separator; this might be useful
+if you plan to use non-Posix shells to execute files.  @xref{File System
+Conventions}, for more information about @code{PATH_SEPARATOR}.
+
+@item POSIXLY_CORRECT
+@evindex POSIXLY_CORRECT
+In the GNU environment, exporting @env{POSIXLY_CORRECT} with any value
+(even empty) causes programs to try harder to conform to Posix.
+Autoconf does not directly manipulate this variable, but @command{bash}
+ties the shell variable @env{POSIXLY_CORRECT} to whether the script is
+running in Posix mode.  Therefore, take care when exporting or unsetting
+this variable, so as not to change whether @command{bash} is in Posix
+mode.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash --posix -c 'set -o | grep posix}
+> @kbd{unset POSIXLY_CORRECT}
+> @kbd{set -o | grep posix'}
+posix           on
+posix           off
+@end example
+
+@item PWD
+@evindex PWD
+Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that @command{cd} and
+@command{pwd} must update the @env{PWD} environment variable to point
+to the logical name of the current directory, but traditional shells
+do not support this.  This can cause confusion if one shell instance
+maintains @env{PWD} but a subsidiary and different shell does not know
+about @env{PWD} and executes @command{cd}; in this case @env{PWD}
+points to the wrong directory.  Use @samp{`pwd`} rather than
+@samp{$PWD}.
+
+@item RANDOM
+@evindex RANDOM
+Many shells provide @code{RANDOM}, a variable that returns a different
+integer each time it is used.  Most of the time, its value does not
+change when it is not used, but on IRIX 6.5 the value changes all
+the time.  This can be observed by using @command{set}.  It is common
+practice to use @code{$RANDOM} as part of a file name, but code
+shouldn't rely on @code{$RANDOM} expanding to a nonempty string.
+
+@item status
+@evindex status
+This variable is an alias to @samp{$?} for @code{zsh} (at least 3.1.6),
+hence read-only.  Do not use it.
+@end table
+
+@node Shell Functions
+@section Shell Functions
+@cindex Shell Functions
+
+Nowadays, it is difficult to find a shell that does not support
+shell functions at all.  However, some differences should be expected.
+
+When declaring a shell function, you must include whitespace between the
+@samp{)} after the function name and the start of the compound
+expression, to avoid upsetting @command{ksh}.  While it is possible to
+use any compound command, most scripts use @samp{@{@dots{}@}}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'a()@{ echo hi;@}; a'}
+hi
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'a()@{ echo hi;@}; a'}
+ksh: syntax error at line 1: `@}' unexpected
+$ @kbd{ksh -c 'a() @{ echo hi;@}; a'}
+hi
+@end example
+
+Inside a shell function, you should not rely on the error status of a
+subshell if the last command of that subshell was @code{exit} or
+@code{trap}, as this triggers bugs in zsh 4.x; while Autoconf tries to
+find a shell that does not exhibit the bug, zsh might be the only shell
+present on the user's machine.
+
+Likewise, the state of @samp{$?} is not reliable when entering a shell
+function.  This has the effect that using a function as the first
+command in a @command{trap} handler can cause problems.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'foo() @{ echo $?; @}; trap foo 0; (exit 2); exit 2'; echo $?}
+2
+2
+$ @kbd{ash -c 'foo() @{ echo $?; @}; trap foo 0; (exit 2); exit 2'; echo $?}
+0
+2
+@end example
+
+DJGPP bash 2.04 has a bug in that @command{return} from a
+shell function which also used a command substitution causes a
+segmentation fault.  To work around the issue, you can use
+@command{return} from a subshell, or @samp{AS_SET_STATUS} as last command
+in the execution flow of the function (@pxref{Common Shell Constructs}).
+
+Not all shells treat shell functions as simple commands impacted by
+@samp{set -e}, for example with Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'f() @{ return 1; @}; set -e; f; echo oops'}
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'f() @{ return 1; @}; set -e; f; echo oops'}
+oops
+@end example
+
+Shell variables and functions may share the same namespace, for example
+with Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{f () @{ :; @}; f=; f}
+f: not found
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+For this reason, Autoconf (actually M4sh, @pxref{Programming in M4sh})
+uses the prefix @samp{as_fn_} for its functions.
+
+Handling of positional parameters and shell options varies among shells.
+For example, Korn shells reset and restore trace output (@samp{set -x})
+and other options upon function entry and exit.  Inside a function,
+IRIX sh sets @samp{$0} to the function name.
+
+It is not portable to pass temporary environment variables to shell
+functions.  Solaris @command{/bin/sh} does not see the variable.
+Meanwhile, not all shells follow the Posix rule that the assignment must
+affect the current environment in the same manner as special built-ins.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'func() @{ echo $a;@}; a=1 func; echo $a'}
+@result{}
+@result{}
+$ @kbd{ash -c 'func() @{ echo $a;@}; a=1 func; echo $a'}
+@result{}1
+@result{}
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'set -o posix; func() @{ echo $a;@}; a=1 func; echo $a'}
+@result{}1
+@result{}1
+@end example
+
+Some ancient Bourne shell variants with function support did not reset
+@samp{$@var{i}, @var{i} >= 0}, upon function exit, so effectively the
+arguments of the script were lost after the first function invocation.
+It is probably not worth worrying about these shells any more.
+
+With AIX sh, a @command{trap} on 0 installed in a shell function
+triggers at function exit rather than at script exit.  @xref{trap, ,
+Limitations of Shell Builtins}.
+
+@node Limitations of Builtins
+@section Limitations of Shell Builtins
+@cindex Shell builtins
+@cindex Limitations of shell builtins
+
+No, no, we are serious: some shells do have limitations!  :)
+
+You should always keep in mind that any builtin or command may support
+options, and therefore differ in behavior with arguments
+starting with a dash.  For instance, even the innocent @samp{echo "$word"}
+can give unexpected results when @code{word} starts with a dash.  It is
+often possible to avoid this problem using @samp{echo "x$word"}, taking
+the @samp{x} into account later in the pipe.  Many of these limitations
+can be worked around using M4sh (@pxref{Programming in M4sh}).
+
+@c This table includes things like `@command{test} (files)', so we can't
+@c use @table @command.
+@table @asis
+@item @command{.}
+@c --------------
+@prindex @command{.}
+Use @command{.} only with regular files (use @samp{test -f}).  Bash
+2.03, for instance, chokes on @samp{. /dev/null}.  Remember that
+@command{.} uses @env{PATH} if its argument contains no slashes.  Also,
+some shells, including bash 3.2, implicitly append the current directory
+to this @env{PATH} search, even though Posix forbids it.  So if you want
+to use @command{.} on a file @file{foo} in the current directory, you
+must use @samp{. ./foo}.
+
+Not all shells gracefully handle syntax errors within a sourced file.
+On one extreme, some non-interactive shells abort the entire script.  On
+the other, @command{zsh} 4.3.10 has a bug where it fails to react to the
+syntax error.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo 'fi' > syntax}
+$ @kbd{bash -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'}
+./syntax: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
+./syntax: line 1: `fi'
+1
+$ @kbd{ash -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'}
+./syntax: 1: Syntax error: "fi" unexpected
+$ @kbd{zsh -c '. ./syntax; echo $?'}
+./syntax:1: parse error near `fi'
+0
+@end example
+
+@item @command{!}
+@c --------------
+@prindex @command{!}
+The Unix version 7 shell did not support
+negating the exit status of commands with @command{!}, and this feature
+is still absent from some shells (e.g., Solaris @command{/bin/sh}).
+Other shells, such as FreeBSD @command{/bin/sh} or @command{ash}, have
+bugs when using @command{!}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -c '! : | :'; echo $?}
+1
+$ @kbd{ash -c '! : | :'; echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{sh -c '! @{ :; @}'; echo $?}
+1
+$ @kbd{ash -c '! @{ :; @}'; echo $?}
+@{: not found
+Syntax error: "@}" unexpected
+2
+@end example
+
+Shell code like this:
+
+@example
+if ! cmp file1 file2 >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+  echo files differ or trouble
+fi
+@end example
+
+is therefore not portable in practice.  Typically it is easy to rewrite
+such code, e.g.:
+
+@example
+cmp file1 file2 >/dev/null 2>&1 ||
+  echo files differ or trouble
+@end example
+
+More generally, one can always rewrite @samp{! @var{command}} as:
+
+@example
+if @var{command}; then (exit 1); else :; fi
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{@{...@}}
+@c --------------------
+@prindex @command{@{...@}}
+Bash 3.2 (and earlier versions) sometimes does not properly set
+@samp{$?} when failing to write redirected output of a compound command.
+This problem is most commonly observed with @samp{@{@dots{}@}}; it does
+not occur with @samp{(@dots{})}.  For example:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c '@{ echo foo; @} >/bad; echo $?'}
+bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+0
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'while :; do echo; done >/bad; echo $?'}
+bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+0
+@end example
+
+To work around the bug, prepend @samp{:;}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c ':;@{ echo foo; @} >/bad; echo $?'}
+bash: line 1: /bad: Permission denied
+1
+@end example
+
+Posix requires a syntax error if a brace list has no contents.  However,
+not all shells obey this rule; and on shells where empty lists are
+permitted, the effect on @samp{$?} is inconsistent.  To avoid problems,
+ensure that a brace list is never empty.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'false; @{ @}; echo $?' || echo $?}
+bash: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `@}'
+bash: line 1: `false; @{ @}; echo $?'
+2
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'false; @{ @}; echo $?' || echo $?}
+1
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'false; @{ @}; echo $?' || echo $?}
+0
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{break}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{break}
+The use of @samp{break 2} etc.@: is safe.
+
+
+@anchor{case}
+@item @command{case}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{case}
+You don't need to quote the argument; no splitting is performed.
+
+You don't need the final @samp{;;}, but you should use it.
+
+Posix requires support for @code{case} patterns with opening
+parentheses like this:
+
+@example
+case $file_name in
+  (*.c) echo "C source code";;
+esac
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but the @code{(} in this example is not portable to many Bourne
+shell implementations, which is a pity for those of us using tools that
+rely on balanced parentheses.  For instance, with Solaris
+@command{/bin/sh}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{case foo in (foo) echo foo;; esac}
+@error{}syntax error: `(' unexpected
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The leading @samp{(} can be omitted safely.  Unfortunately, there are
+contexts where unbalanced parentheses cause other problems, such as when
+using a syntax-highlighting editor that searches for the balancing
+counterpart, or more importantly, when using a case statement as an
+underquoted argument to an Autoconf macro.  @xref{Balancing
+Parentheses}, for tradeoffs involved in various styles of dealing with
+unbalanced @samp{)}.
+
+Zsh handles pattern fragments derived from parameter expansions or
+command substitutions as though quoted:
+
+@example
+$ pat=\?; case aa in ?$pat) echo match;; esac
+$ pat=\?; case a? in ?$pat) echo match;; esac
+match
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Because of a bug in its @code{fnmatch}, Bash fails to properly
+handle backslashes in character classes:
+
+@example
+bash-2.02$ @kbd{case /tmp in [/\\]*) echo OK;; esac}
+bash-2.02$
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This is extremely unfortunate, since you are likely to use this code to
+handle Posix or MS-DOS absolute file names.  To work around this
+bug, always put the backslash first:
+
+@example
+bash-2.02$ @kbd{case '\TMP' in [\\/]*) echo OK;; esac}
+OK
+bash-2.02$ @kbd{case /tmp in [\\/]*) echo OK;; esac}
+OK
+@end example
+
+Many Bourne shells cannot handle closing brackets in character classes
+correctly.
+
+Some shells also have problems with backslash escaping in case you do not want
+to match the backslash: both a backslash and the escaped character match this
+pattern.  To work around this, specify the character class in a variable, so
+that quote removal does not apply afterwards, and the special characters don't
+have to be backslash-escaped:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{case '\' in [\<]) echo OK;; esac}
+OK
+$ @kbd{scanset='[<]'; case '\' in $scanset) echo OK;; esac}
+$
+@end example
+
+Even with this, Solaris @command{ksh} matches a backslash if the set
+contains any
+of the characters @samp{|}, @samp{&}, @samp{(}, or @samp{)}.
+
+Conversely, Tru64 @command{ksh} (circa 2003) erroneously always matches
+a closing parenthesis if not specified in a character class:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{case foo in *\)*) echo fail ;; esac}
+fail
+$ @kbd{case foo in *')'*) echo fail ;; esac}
+fail
+@end example
+
+Some shells, such as Ash 0.3.8, are confused by an empty
+@code{case}/@code{esac}:
+
+@example
+ash-0.3.8 $ @kbd{case foo in esac;}
+@error{}Syntax error: ";" unexpected (expecting ")")
+@end example
+
+Posix requires @command{case} to give an exit status of 0 if no cases
+match.  However, @command{/bin/sh} in Solaris 10 does not obey this
+rule.  Meanwhile, it is unclear whether a case that matches, but
+contains no statements, must also change the exit status to 0.  The M4sh
+macro @code{AS_CASE} works around these inconsistencies.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'case `false` in ?) ;; esac; echo $?'}
+0
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'case `false` in ?) ;; esac; echo $?'}
+255
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{cd}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{cd}
+Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that @command{cd} must support
+the @option{-L} (``logical'') and @option{-P} (``physical'') options,
+with @option{-L} being the default.  However, traditional shells do
+not support these options, and their @command{cd} command has the
+@option{-P} behavior.
+
+Portable scripts should assume neither option is supported, and should
+assume neither behavior is the default.  This can be a bit tricky,
+since the Posix default behavior means that, for example,
+@samp{ls ..} and @samp{cd ..} may refer to different directories if
+the current logical directory is a symbolic link.  It is safe to use
+@code{cd @var{dir}} if @var{dir} contains no @file{..} components.
+Also, Autoconf-generated scripts check for this problem when computing
+variables like @code{ac_top_srcdir} (@pxref{Configuration Actions}),
+so it is safe to @command{cd} to these variables.
+
+Posix states that behavior is undefined if @command{cd} is given an
+explicit empty argument.  Some shells do nothing, some change to the
+first entry in @env{CDPATH}, some change to @env{HOME}, and some exit
+the shell rather than returning an error.  Unfortunately, this means
+that if @samp{$var} is empty, then @samp{cd "$var"} is less predictable
+than @samp{cd $var} (at least the latter is well-behaved in all shells
+at changing to @env{HOME}, although this is probably not what you wanted
+in a script).  You should check that a directory name was supplied
+before trying to change locations.
+
+@xref{Special Shell Variables}, for portability problems involving
+@command{cd} and the @env{CDPATH} environment variable.
+Also please see the discussion of the @command{pwd} command.
+
+
+@anchor{echo}
+@item @command{echo}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{echo}
+The simple @command{echo} is probably the most surprising source of
+portability troubles.  It is not possible to use @samp{echo} portably
+unless both options and escape sequences are omitted.  Don't expect any
+option.
+
+Do not use backslashes in the arguments, as there is no consensus on
+their handling.  For @samp{echo '\n' | wc -l}, the @command{sh} of
+Solaris outputs 2, but Bash and Zsh (in @command{sh} emulation mode) output 1.
+The problem is truly @command{echo}: all the shells
+understand @samp{'\n'} as the string composed of a backslash and an
+@samp{n}.  Within a command substitution, @samp{echo 'string\c'} will
+mess up the internal state of ksh88 on AIX 6.1 so that it will print
+the first character @samp{s} only, followed by a newline, and then
+entirely drop the output of the next echo in a command substitution.
+
+Because of these problems, do not pass a string containing arbitrary
+characters to @command{echo}.  For example, @samp{echo "$foo"} is safe
+only if you know that @var{foo}'s value cannot contain backslashes and
+cannot start with @samp{-}.
+
+If this may not be true, @command{printf} is in general safer and
+easier to use than @command{echo} and @command{echo -n}.  Thus, scripts
+where portability is not a major concern should use @command{printf
+'%s\n'} whenever @command{echo} could fail, and similarly use
+@command{printf %s} instead of @command{echo -n}. For portable shell
+scripts, instead, it is suggested to use a here-document like this:
+
+@example
+cat <<EOF
+$foo
+EOF
+@end example
+
+Alternatively, M4sh provides @code{AS_ECHO} and @code{AS_ECHO_N} macros
+which choose between various portable implementations: @samp{echo}
+or @samp{print} where they work, @command{printf} if it is available,
+or else other creative tricks in order to work around the above problems.
+
+
+@item @command{eval}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{eval}
+The @command{eval} command is useful in limited circumstances, e.g.,
+using commands like @samp{eval table_$key=\$value} and @samp{eval
+value=table_$key} to simulate a hash table when the key is known to be
+alphanumeric.
+
+You should also be wary of common bugs in @command{eval} implementations.
+In some shell implementations (e.g., older @command{ash}, OpenBSD 3.8
+@command{sh}, @command{pdksh} v5.2.14 99/07/13.2, and @command{zsh}
+4.2.5), the arguments of @samp{eval} are evaluated in a context where
+@samp{$?} is 0, so they exhibit behavior like this:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{false; eval 'echo $?'}
+0
+@end example
+
+The correct behavior here is to output a nonzero value,
+but portable scripts should not rely on this.
+
+You should not rely on @code{LINENO} within @command{eval}.
+@xref{Special Shell Variables}.
+
+Note that, even though these bugs are easily avoided,
+@command{eval} is tricky to use on arbitrary arguments.
+It is obviously unwise to use @samp{eval $cmd} if the string value of
+@samp{cmd} was derived from an untrustworthy source.  But even if the
+string value is valid, @samp{eval $cmd} might not work as intended,
+since it causes field splitting and file name expansion to occur twice,
+once for the @command{eval} and once for the command itself.  It is
+therefore safer to use @samp{eval "$cmd"}.  For example, if @var{cmd}
+has the value @samp{cat test?.c}, @samp{eval $cmd} might expand to the
+equivalent of @samp{cat test;.c} if there happens to be a file named
+@file{test;.c} in the current directory; and this in turn
+mistakenly attempts to invoke @command{cat} on the file @file{test} and
+then execute the command @command{.c}.  To avoid this problem, use
+@samp{eval "$cmd"} rather than @samp{eval $cmd}.
+
+However, suppose that you want to output the text of the evaluated
+command just before executing it.  Assuming the previous example,
+@samp{echo "Executing: $cmd"} outputs @samp{Executing: cat test?.c}, but
+this output doesn't show the user that @samp{test;.c} is the actual name
+of the copied file.  Conversely, @samp{eval "echo Executing: $cmd"}
+works on this example, but it fails with @samp{cmd='cat foo >bar'},
+since it mistakenly replaces the contents of @file{bar} by the
+string @samp{cat foo}.  No simple, general, and portable solution to
+this problem is known.
+
+@item @command{exec}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{exec}
+Posix describes several categories of shell built-ins.  Special
+built-ins (such as @command{exit}) must impact the environment of the
+current shell, and need not be available through @command{exec}.  All
+other built-ins are regular, and must not propagate variable assignments
+to the environment of the current shell.  However, the group of regular
+built-ins is further distinguished by commands that do not require a
+@env{PATH} search (such as @command{cd}), in contrast to built-ins that
+are offered as a more efficient version of something that must still be
+found in a @env{PATH} search (such as @command{echo}).  Posix is not
+clear on whether @command{exec} must work with the list of 17 utilities
+that are invoked without a @env{PATH} search, and many platforms lack an
+executable for some of those built-ins:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'exec cd /tmp'}
+sh: line 0: exec: cd: not found
+@end example
+
+All other built-ins that provide utilities specified by Posix must have
+a counterpart executable that exists on @env{PATH}, although Posix
+allows @command{exec} to use the built-in instead of the executable.
+For example, contrast @command{bash} 3.2 and @command{pdksh} 5.2.14:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'pwd --version' | head -n1}
+bash: line 0: pwd: --: invalid option
+pwd: usage: pwd [-LP]
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'exec pwd --version' | head -n1}
+pwd (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'exec pwd --version' | head -n1}
+pdksh: pwd: --: unknown option
+@end example
+
+When it is desired to avoid a regular shell built-in, the workaround is
+to use some other forwarding command, such as @command{env} or
+@command{nice}, that will ensure a path search:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'exec true --version' | head -n1}
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'nice true --version' | head -n1}
+true (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+$ @kbd{pdksh -c 'env true --version' | head -n1}
+true (GNU coreutils) 6.10
+@end example
+
+@item @command{exit}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{exit}
+The default value of @command{exit} is supposed to be @code{$?};
+unfortunately, some shells, such as the DJGPP port of Bash 2.04, just
+perform @samp{exit 0}.
+
+@example
+bash-2.04$ @kbd{foo=`exit 1` || echo fail}
+fail
+bash-2.04$ @kbd{foo=`(exit 1)` || echo fail}
+fail
+bash-2.04$ @kbd{foo=`(exit 1); exit` || echo fail}
+bash-2.04$
+@end example
+
+Using @samp{exit $?} restores the expected behavior.
+
+Some shell scripts, such as those generated by @command{autoconf}, use a
+trap to clean up before exiting.  If the last shell command exited with
+nonzero status, the trap also exits with nonzero status so that the
+invoker can tell that an error occurred.
+
+Unfortunately, in some shells, such as Solaris @command{/bin/sh}, an exit
+trap ignores the @code{exit} command's argument.  In these shells, a trap
+cannot determine whether it was invoked by plain @code{exit} or by
+@code{exit 1}.  Instead of calling @code{exit} directly, use the
+@code{AC_MSG_ERROR} macro that has a workaround for this problem.
+
+
+@anchor{export}
+@item @command{export}
+@c -------------------
+@prindex @command{export}
+The builtin @command{export} dubs a shell variable @dfn{environment
+variable}.  Each update of exported variables corresponds to an update
+of the environment variables.  Conversely, each environment variable
+received by the shell when it is launched should be imported as a shell
+variable marked as exported.
+
+Alas, many shells, such as Solaris @command{/bin/sh},
+IRIX 6.3, IRIX 5.2,
+AIX 4.1.5, and Digital Unix 4.0, forget to
+@command{export} the environment variables they receive.  As a result,
+two variables coexist: the environment variable and the shell
+variable.  The following code demonstrates this failure:
+
+@example
+#!/bin/sh
+echo $FOO
+FOO=bar
+echo $FOO
+exec /bin/sh $0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+when run with @samp{FOO=foo} in the environment, these shells print
+alternately @samp{foo} and @samp{bar}, although they should print only
+@samp{foo} and then a sequence of @samp{bar}s.
+
+Therefore you should @command{export} again each environment variable
+that you update; the export can occur before or after the assignment.
+
+Posix is not clear on whether the @command{export} of an undefined
+variable causes the variable to be defined with the value of an empty
+string, or merely marks any future definition of a variable by that name
+for export.  Various shells behave differently in this regard:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'export foo; env | grep foo'}
+$ @kbd{ash -c 'export foo; env | grep foo'}
+foo=
+@end example
+
+Posix requires @command{export} to honor assignments made as arguments,
+but older shells do not support this, including @command{/bin/sh} in
+Solaris 10.  Portable scripts should separate assignments and exports
+into different statements.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'export foo=bar; echo $foo'}
+bar
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'export foo=bar; echo $foo'}
+/bin/sh: foo=bar: is not an identifier
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'export foo; foo=bar; echo $foo'}
+bar
+@end example
+
+@item @command{false}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{false}
+Don't expect @command{false} to exit with status 1: in native
+Solaris @file{/bin/false} exits with status 255.
+
+
+@item @command{for}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{for}
+To loop over positional arguments, use:
+
+@example
+for arg
+do
+  echo "$arg"
+done
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You may @emph{not} leave the @code{do} on the same line as @code{for},
+since some shells improperly grok:
+
+@example
+for arg; do
+  echo "$arg"
+done
+@end example
+
+If you want to explicitly refer to the positional arguments, given the
+@samp{$@@} bug (@pxref{Shell Substitutions}), use:
+
+@example
+for arg in $@{1+"$@@"@}; do
+  echo "$arg"
+done
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+But keep in mind that Zsh, even in Bourne shell emulation mode, performs
+word splitting on @samp{$@{1+"$@@"@}}; see @ref{Shell Substitutions},
+item @samp{$@@}, for more.
+
+In Solaris @command{/bin/sh}, when the list of arguments of a
+@command{for} loop starts with @emph{unquoted} tokens looking like
+variable assignments, the loop is not executed on those tokens:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'for v in a=b c=d x e=f; do echo $v; done'}
+x
+e=f
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Thankfully, quoting the assignment-like tokens, or starting the list
+with other tokens (including unquoted variable expansion that results in
+an assignment-like result), avoids the problem, so it is easy to work
+around:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'for v in "a=b"; do echo $v; done'}
+a=b
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'x=a=b; for v in $x c=d; do echo $v; done'}
+a=b
+c=d
+@end example
+
+@anchor{if}
+@item @command{if}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{if}
+Using @samp{!} is not portable.  Instead of:
+
+@example
+if ! cmp -s file file.new; then
+  mv file.new file
+fi
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+use:
+
+@example
+if cmp -s file file.new; then :; else
+  mv file.new file
+fi
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Or, especially if the @dfn{else} branch is short, you can use @code{||}.
+In M4sh, the @code{AS_IF} macro provides an easy way to write these kinds
+of conditionals:
+
+@example
+AS_IF([cmp -s file file.new], [], [mv file.new file])
+@end example
+
+This is especially useful in other M4 macros, where the @dfn{then} and
+@dfn{else} branches might be macro arguments.
+
+Some very old shells did not reset the exit status from an @command{if}
+with no @command{else}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{if (exit 42); then true; fi; echo $?}
+42
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+whereas a proper shell should have printed @samp{0}.  But this is no
+longer a portability problem; any shell that supports functions gets it
+correct.  However, it explains why some makefiles have lengthy
+constructs:
+
+@example
+if test -f "$file"; then
+  install "$file" "$dest"
+else
+  :
+fi
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{printf}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{printf}
+A format string starting with a @samp{-} can cause problems.
+Bash interprets it as an option and
+gives an error.  And @samp{--} to mark the end of options is not good
+in the NetBSD Almquist shell (e.g., 0.4.6) which takes that
+literally as the format string.  Putting the @samp{-} in a @samp{%c}
+or @samp{%s} is probably easiest:
+
+@example
+printf %s -foo
+@end example
+
+Bash 2.03 mishandles an escape sequence that happens to evaluate to @samp{%}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf '\045'}
+bash: printf: `%': missing format character
+@end example
+
+Large outputs may cause trouble.  On Solaris 2.5.1 through 10, for
+example, @file{/usr/bin/printf} is buggy, so when using
+@command{/bin/sh} the command @samp{printf %010000x 123} normally dumps
+core.
+
+Since @command{printf} is not always a shell builtin, there is a
+potential speed penalty for using @code{printf '%s\n'} as a replacement
+for an @command{echo} that does not interpret @samp{\} or leading
+@samp{-}. With Solaris @command{ksh}, it is possible to use @code{print
+-r --} for this role instead.
+
+@xref{echo, , Limitations of Shell Builtins} for a discussion of
+portable alternatives to both @command{printf} and @command{echo}.
+
+
+@item @command{pwd}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{pwd}
+With modern shells, plain @command{pwd} outputs a ``logical''
+directory name, some of whose components may be symbolic links.  These
+directory names are in contrast to ``physical'' directory names, whose
+components are all directories.
+
+Posix 1003.1-2001 requires that @command{pwd} must support
+the @option{-L} (``logical'') and @option{-P} (``physical'') options,
+with @option{-L} being the default.  However, traditional shells do
+not support these options, and their @command{pwd} command has the
+@option{-P} behavior.
+
+Portable scripts should assume neither option is supported, and should
+assume neither behavior is the default.  Also, on many hosts
+@samp{/bin/pwd} is equivalent to @samp{pwd -P}, but Posix
+does not require this behavior and portable scripts should not rely on
+it.
+
+Typically it's best to use plain @command{pwd}.  On modern hosts this
+outputs logical directory names, which have the following advantages:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Logical names are what the user specified.
+@item
+Physical names may not be portable from one installation
+host to another due to network file system gymnastics.
+@item
+On modern hosts @samp{pwd -P} may fail due to lack of permissions to
+some parent directory, but plain @command{pwd} cannot fail for this
+reason.
+@end itemize
+
+Also please see the discussion of the @command{cd} command.
+
+
+@item @command{read}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{read}
+No options are portable, not even support @option{-r} (Solaris
+@command{/bin/sh} for example).  Tru64/OSF 5.1 @command{sh} treats
+@command{read} as a special built-in, so it may exit if input is
+redirected from a non-existent or unreadable file.
+
+
+@anchor{set}
+@item @command{set}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{set}
+With the FreeBSD 6.0 shell, the @command{set} command (without
+any options) does not sort its output.
+
+The @command{set} builtin faces the usual problem with arguments
+starting with a
+dash.  Modern shells such as Bash or Zsh understand @option{--} to specify
+the end of the options (any argument after @option{--} is a parameter,
+even @samp{-x} for instance), but many traditional shells (e.g., Solaris
+10 @command{/bin/sh}) simply stop option
+processing as soon as a non-option argument is found.  Therefore, use
+@samp{dummy} or simply @samp{x} to end the option processing, and use
+@command{shift} to pop it out:
+
+@example
+set x $my_list; shift
+@end example
+
+Avoid @samp{set -}, e.g., @samp{set - $my_list}.  Posix no
+longer requires support for this command, and in traditional shells
+@samp{set - $my_list} resets the @option{-v} and @option{-x} options, which
+makes scripts harder to debug.
+
+Some nonstandard shells do not recognize more than one option
+(e.g., @samp{set -e -x} assigns @samp{-x} to the command line).  It is
+better to combine them:
+
+@example
+set -ex
+@end example
+
+@cindex @command{set -e}
+The option @option{-e} has historically been underspecified, with enough
+ambiguities to cause numerous differences across various shell
+implementations; see for example
+@uref{http://www.in-ulm.de/@/~mascheck/@/various/@/set-e/, this overview},
+or @uref{http://www.austingroupbugs.net/@/view.php?id=52, this link},
+documenting a change to Posix 2008 to match @command{ksh88} behavior.
+Note that mixing @code{set -e} and shell functions is asking for surprises:
+
+@example
+set -e
+doit()
+@{
+  rm file
+  echo one
+@}
+doit || echo two
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+According to the recommendation, @samp{one} should always be output
+regardless of whether the @command{rm} failed, because it occurs within
+the body of the shell function @samp{doit} invoked on the left side of
+@samp{||}, where the effects of @samp{set -e} are not enforced.
+Likewise, @samp{two} should never be printed, since the failure of
+@command{rm} does not abort the function, such that the status of
+@samp{doit} is 0.
+
+The BSD shell has had several problems with the @option{-e}
+option.  Older versions of the BSD
+shell (circa 1990) mishandled @samp{&&}, @samp{||}, @samp{if}, and
+@samp{case} when @option{-e} was in effect, causing the shell to exit
+unexpectedly in some cases.  This was particularly a problem with
+makefiles, and led to circumlocutions like @samp{sh -c 'test -f file ||
+touch file'}, where the seemingly-unnecessary @samp{sh -c '@dots{}'}
+wrapper works around the bug (@pxref{Failure in Make Rules}).
+
+Even relatively-recent versions of the BSD shell (e.g., OpenBSD 3.4)
+wrongly exit with @option{-e} if the last command within a compound
+statement fails and is guarded by an @samp{&&} only.  For example:
+
+@example
+#! /bin/sh
+set -e
+foo=''
+test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+echo one
+if :; then
+  test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+  echo two
+  test -n "$foo" && exit 1
+fi
+echo three
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+does not print @samp{three}.  One workaround is to change the last
+instance of @samp{test -n "$foo" && exit 1} to be @samp{if test -n
+"$foo"; then exit 1; fi} instead.  Another possibility is to warn BSD
+users not to use @samp{sh -e}.
+
+When @samp{set -e} is in effect, a failed command substitution in
+Solaris @command{/bin/sh} cannot be ignored, even with @samp{||}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c 'set -e; foo=`false` || echo foo; echo bar'}
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'set -e; foo=`false` || echo foo; echo bar'}
+foo
+bar
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Moreover, a command substitution, successful or not, causes this shell to
+exit from a failing outer command even in presence of an @samp{&&} list:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'set -e; false `true` && echo notreached; echo ok'}
+ok
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'set -e; false `true` && echo notreached; echo ok'}
+$
+@end example
+
+Portable scripts should not use @samp{set -e} if @command{trap} is used
+to install an exit handler.  This is because Tru64/OSF 5.1 @command{sh}
+sometimes enters the trap handler with the exit status of the command
+prior to the one that triggered the errexit handler:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{sh -ec 'trap '\''echo $?'\'' 0; false'}
+0
+$ @kbd{sh -c 'set -e; trap '\''echo $?'\'' 0; false'}
+1
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Thus, when writing a script in M4sh, rather than trying to rely on
+@samp{set -e}, it is better to append @samp{|| AS_EXIT} to any
+statement where it is desirable to abort on failure.
+
+@cindex @command{set -b}
+@cindex @command{set -m}
+Job control is not provided by all shells, so the use of @samp{set -m}
+or @samp{set -b} must be done with care.  When using @command{zsh} in
+native mode, asynchronous notification (@samp{set -b}) is enabled by
+default, and using @samp{emulate sh} to switch to Posix mode does not
+clear this setting (although asynchronous notification has no impact
+unless job monitoring is also enabled).  Also, @command{zsh} 4.3.10 and
+earlier have a bug where job control can be manipulated in interactive
+shells, but not in subshells or scripts.  Furthermore, some shells, like
+@command{pdksh}, fail to treat subshells as interactive, even though the
+parent shell was.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo $ZSH_VERSION}
+4.3.10
+$ @kbd{set -m; echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{zsh -c 'set -m; echo $?'}
+set: can't change option: -m
+$ @kbd{(set -m); echo $?}
+set: can't change option: -m
+1
+$ @kbd{pdksh -ci 'echo $-; (echo $-)'}
+cim
+c
+@end example
+
+@cindex @command{set -n}
+Use of @command{set -n} (typically via @command{sh -n script}) to
+validate a script is not foolproof.  Modern @command{ksh93} tries to be
+helpful by informing you about better syntax, but switching the script
+to use the suggested syntax in order to silence the warnings would
+render the script no longer portable to older shells:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{ksh -nc '``'}
+ksh: warning: line 1: `...` obsolete, use $(...)
+0
+@end example
+
+Furthermore, on ancient hosts, such as SunOS 4, @command{sh -n} could go
+into an infinite loop; even with that bug fixed, Solaris 8
+@command{/bin/sh} takes extremely long to parse large scripts.  Autoconf
+itself uses @command{sh -n} within its testsuite to check that correct
+scripts were generated, but only after first probing for other shell
+features (such as @code{test -n "$@{BASH_VERSION+set@}"}) that indicate
+a reasonably fast and working implementation.
+
+@item @command{shift}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{shift}
+Not only is @command{shift}ing a bad idea when there is nothing left to
+shift, but in addition it is not portable: the shell of MIPS
+RISC/OS 4.52 refuses to do it.
+
+Don't use @samp{shift 2} etc.; while it in the SVR1 shell (1983),
+it is also absent in many pre-Posix shells.
+
+
+@item @command{source}
+@c -------------------
+@prindex @command{source}
+This command is not portable, as Posix does not require it; use
+@command{.} instead.
+
+
+@item @command{test}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{test}
+The @code{test} program is the way to perform many file and string
+tests.  It is often invoked by the alternate name @samp{[}, but using
+that name in Autoconf code is asking for trouble since it is an M4 quote
+character.
+
+The @option{-a}, @option{-o}, @samp{(}, and @samp{)} operands are not
+present in all implementations, and have been marked obsolete by Posix
+2008.  This is because there are inherent ambiguities in using them.
+For example, @samp{test "$1" -a "$2"} looks like a binary operator to
+check whether two strings are both non-empty, but if @samp{$1} is the
+literal @samp{!}, then some implementations of @command{test} treat it
+as a negation of the unary operator @option{-a}.
+
+Thus, portable uses of @command{test} should never have more than four
+arguments, and scripts should use shell constructs like @samp{&&} and
+@samp{||} instead.  If you combine @samp{&&} and @samp{||} in the same
+statement, keep in mind that they have equal precedence, so it is often
+better to parenthesize even when this is redundant.  For example:
+
+@smallexample
+# Not portable:
+test "X$a" = "X$b" -a \
+  '(' "X$c" != "X$d" -o "X$e" = "X$f" ')'
+
+# Portable:
+test "X$a" = "X$b" &&
+  @{ test "X$c" != "X$d" || test "X$e" = "X$f"; @}
+@end smallexample
+
+@command{test} does not process options like most other commands do; for
+example, it does not recognize the @option{--} argument as marking the
+end of options.
+
+It is safe to use @samp{!} as a @command{test} operator.  For example,
+@samp{if test ! -d foo; @dots{}} is portable even though @samp{if ! test
+-d foo; @dots{}} is not.
+
+
+@item @command{test} (files)
+@c -------------------------
+To enable @command{configure} scripts to support cross-compilation, they
+shouldn't do anything that tests features of the build system instead of
+the host system.  But occasionally you may find it necessary to check
+whether some arbitrary file exists.  To do so, use @samp{test -f},
+@samp{test -r}, or @samp{test -x}.  Do not use @samp{test -e}, because
+Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}
+lacks it.  To test for symbolic links on systems that have them, use
+@samp{test -h} rather than @samp{test -L}; either form conforms to
+Posix 1003.1-2001, but older shells like Solaris 8
+@code{/bin/sh} support only @option{-h}.
+
+For historical reasons, Posix reluctantly allows implementations of
+@samp{test -x} that will succeed for the root user, even if no execute
+permissions are present.  Furthermore, shells do not all agree on
+whether Access Control Lists should affect @samp{test -r}, @samp{test
+-w}, and @samp{test -x}; some shells base test results strictly on the
+current user id compared to file owner and mode, as if by
+@code{stat(2)}; while other shells base test results on whether the
+current user has the given right, even if that right is only granted by
+an ACL, as if by @code{faccessat(2)}.  Furthermore, there is a classic
+time of check to time of use race between any use of @command{test}
+followed by operating on the just-checked file.  Therefore, it is a good
+idea to write scripts that actually attempt an operation, and are
+prepared for the resulting failure if permission is denied, rather than
+trying to avoid an operation based solely on whether @command{test}
+guessed that it might not be permitted.
+
+@item @command{test} (strings)
+@c ---------------------------
+Posix says that @samp{test "@var{string}"} succeeds if @var{string} is
+not null, but this usage is not portable to traditional platforms like
+Solaris 10 @command{/bin/sh}, which mishandle strings like @samp{!} and
+@samp{-n}.
+
+Posix also says that @samp{test ! "@var{string}"},
+@samp{test -n "@var{string}"} and
+@samp{test -z "@var{string}"} work with any string, but many
+shells (such as Solaris, AIX 3.2, UNICOS 10.0.0.6,
+Digital Unix 4, etc.)@: get confused if
+@var{string} looks like an operator:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{test -n =}
+test: argument expected
+$ @kbd{test ! -n}
+test: argument expected
+$ @kbd{test -z ")"; echo $?}
+0
+@end example
+
+Similarly, Posix says that both @samp{test "@var{string1}" = "@var{string2"}}
+and @samp{test "@var{string1}" != "@var{string2"}} work for any pairs of
+strings, but in practice this is not true for troublesome strings that
+look like operators or parentheses, or that begin with @samp{-}.
+
+It is best to protect such strings with a leading @samp{X}, e.g.,
+@samp{test "X@var{string}" != X} rather than @samp{test -n
+"@var{string}"} or @samp{test ! "@var{string}"}.
+
+It is common to find variations of the following idiom:
+
+@example
+test -n "`echo $ac_feature | sed 's/[-a-zA-Z0-9_]//g'`" &&
+  @var{action}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+to take an action when a token matches a given pattern.  Such constructs
+should be avoided by using:
+
+@example
+case $ac_feature in
+  *[!-a-zA-Z0-9_]*) @var{action};;
+esac
+@end example
+
+If the pattern is a complicated regular expression that cannot be
+expressed as a shell pattern, use something like this instead:
+
+@example
+expr "X$ac_feature" : 'X.*[^-a-zA-Z0-9_]' >/dev/null &&
+  @var{action}
+@end example
+
+@samp{expr "X@var{foo}" : "X@var{bar}"} is more robust than @samp{echo
+"X@var{foo}" | grep "^X@var{bar}"}, because it avoids problems when
+@samp{@var{foo}} contains backslashes.
+
+
+@anchor{trap}
+@item @command{trap}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{trap}
+It is safe to trap at least the signals 1, 2, 13, and 15.  You can also
+trap 0, i.e., have the @command{trap} run when the script ends (either via an
+explicit @command{exit}, or the end of the script).  The trap for 0 should be
+installed outside of a shell function, or AIX 5.3 @command{/bin/sh}
+will invoke the trap at the end of this function.
+
+Posix says that @samp{trap - 1 2 13 15} resets the traps for the
+specified signals to their default values, but many common shells (e.g.,
+Solaris @command{/bin/sh}) misinterpret this and attempt to execute a
+``command'' named @command{-} when the specified conditions arise.
+Posix 2008 also added a requirement to support @samp{trap 1 2 13 15} to
+reset traps, as this is supported by a larger set of shells, but there
+are still shells like @command{dash} that mistakenly try to execute
+@command{1} instead of resetting the traps.  Therefore, there is no
+portable workaround, except for @samp{trap - 0}, for which
+@samp{trap '' 0} is a portable substitute.
+
+Although Posix is not absolutely clear on this point, it is widely
+admitted that when entering the trap @samp{$?} should be set to the exit
+status of the last command run before the trap.  The ambiguity can be
+summarized as: ``when the trap is launched by an @command{exit}, what is
+the @emph{last} command run: that before @command{exit}, or
+@command{exit} itself?''
+
+Bash considers @command{exit} to be the last command, while Zsh and
+Solaris @command{/bin/sh} consider that when the trap is run it is
+@emph{still} in the @command{exit}, hence it is the previous exit status
+that the trap receives:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat trap.sh}
+trap 'echo $?' 0
+(exit 42); exit 0
+$ @kbd{zsh trap.sh}
+42
+$ @kbd{bash trap.sh}
+0
+@end example
+
+The portable solution is then simple: when you want to @samp{exit 42},
+run @samp{(exit 42); exit 42}, the first @command{exit} being used to
+set the exit status to 42 for Zsh, and the second to trigger the trap
+and pass 42 as exit status for Bash.  In M4sh, this is covered by using
+@code{AS_EXIT}.
+
+The shell in FreeBSD 4.0 has the following bug: @samp{$?} is
+reset to 0 by empty lines if the code is inside @command{trap}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{trap 'false}
+
+echo $?' 0
+$ @kbd{exit}
+0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Fortunately, this bug only affects @command{trap}.
+
+Several shells fail to execute an exit trap that is defined inside a
+subshell, when the last command of that subshell is not a builtin.  A
+workaround is to use @samp{exit $?} as the shell builtin.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true)'}
+hi
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true)'}
+$ @kbd{/bin/sh -c '(trap "echo hi" 0; /bin/true; exit $?)'}
+hi
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Likewise, older implementations of @command{bash} failed to preserve
+@samp{$?} across an exit trap consisting of a single cleanup command.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{bash -c 'trap "/bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?}
+2
+$ @kbd{bash-2.05b -c 'trap "/bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{bash-2.05b -c 'trap ":; /bin/true" 0; exit 2'; echo $?}
+2
+@end example
+
+@item @command{true}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{true}
+@c Info cannot handle `:' in index entries.
+@c @prindex @command{:}
+Don't worry: as far as we know @command{true} is portable.
+Nevertheless, it's not always a builtin (e.g., Bash 1.x), and the
+portable shell community tends to prefer using @command{:}.  This has a
+funny side effect: when asked whether @command{false} is more portable
+than @command{true} Alexandre Oliva answered:
+
+@quotation
+In a sense, yes, because if it doesn't exist, the shell will produce an
+exit status of failure, which is correct for @command{false}, but not
+for @command{true}.
+@end quotation
+
+Remember that even though @samp{:} ignores its arguments, it still takes
+time to compute those arguments.  It is a good idea to use double quotes
+around any arguments to @samp{:} to avoid time spent in field splitting
+and file name expansion.
+
+
+@anchor{unset}
+@item @command{unset}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{unset}
+In some nonconforming shells (e.g., Solaris 10 @command{/bin/ksh} and
+@command{/usr/xpg4/bin/sh}, NetBSD 5.99.43 sh, or Bash 2.05a),
+@code{unset FOO} fails when @code{FOO} is not set.  This can interfere
+with @code{set -e} operation.  You can use
+
+@smallexample
+FOO=; unset FOO
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+if you are not sure that @code{FOO} is set.
+
+A few ancient shells lack @command{unset} entirely.  For some variables
+such as @code{PS1}, you can use a neutralizing value instead:
+
+@smallexample
+PS1='$ '
+@end smallexample
+
+Usually, shells that do not support @command{unset} need less effort to
+make the environment sane, so for example is not a problem if you cannot
+unset @command{CDPATH} on those shells.  However, Bash 2.01 mishandles
+@code{unset MAIL} and @code{unset MAILPATH} in some cases and dumps core.
+So, you should do something like
+
+@smallexample
+( (unset MAIL) || exit 1) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset MAIL || :
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+@xref{Special Shell Variables}, for some neutralizing values.  Also, see
+@ref{export, , Limitations of Builtins}, for
+the case of environment variables.

+@item @command{awk}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{awk}
+Don't leave white space before the opening parenthesis in a user function call.
+Posix does not allow this and GNU Awk rejects it:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{gawk 'function die () @{ print "Aaaaarg!"  @}
+        BEGIN @{ die () @}'}
+gawk: cmd. line:2:         BEGIN @{ die () @}
+gawk: cmd. line:2:                      ^ parse error
+$ @kbd{gawk 'function die () @{ print "Aaaaarg!"  @}
+        BEGIN @{ die() @}'}
+Aaaaarg!
+@end example
+
+Posix says that if a program contains only @samp{BEGIN} actions, and
+contains no instances of @code{getline}, then the program merely
+executes the actions without reading input.  However, traditional Awk
+implementations (such as Solaris 10 @command{awk}) read and discard
+input in this case.  Portable scripts can redirect input from
+@file{/dev/null} to work around the problem.  For example:
+
+@example
+awk 'BEGIN @{print "hello world"@}' </dev/null
+@end example
+
+Posix says that in an @samp{END} action, @samp{$NF} (and presumably,
+@samp{$1}) retain their value from the last record read, if no
+intervening @samp{getline} occurred.  However, some implementations
+(such as Solaris 10 @samp{/usr/bin/awk}, @samp{nawk}, or Darwin
+@samp{awk}) reset these variables.  A workaround is to use an
+intermediate variable prior to the @samp{END} block.  For example:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat end.awk}
+@{ tmp = $1 @}
+END @{ print "a", $1, $NF, "b", tmp @}
+$ @kbd{echo 1 | awk -f end.awk}
+a   b 1
+$ @kbd{echo 1 | gawk -f end.awk}
+a 1 1 b 1
+@end example
+
+If you want your program to be deterministic, don't depend on @code{for}
+on arrays:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat for.awk}
+END @{
+  arr["foo"] = 1
+  arr["bar"] = 1
+  for (i in arr)
+    print i
+@}
+$ @kbd{gawk -f for.awk </dev/null}
+foo
+bar
+$ @kbd{nawk -f for.awk </dev/null}
+bar
+foo
+@end example
+
+Some Awk implementations, such as HP-UX 11.0's native one,
+mishandle anchors:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo xfoo | $AWK '/foo|^bar/ @{ print @}'}
+$ @kbd{echo bar | $AWK '/foo|^bar/ @{ print @}'}
+bar
+$ @kbd{echo xfoo | $AWK '/^bar|foo/ @{ print @}'}
+xfoo
+$ @kbd{echo bar | $AWK '/^bar|foo/ @{ print @}'}
+bar
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Either do not depend on such patterns (i.e., use @samp{/^(.*foo|bar)/},
+or use a simple test to reject such implementations.
+
+On @samp{ia64-hp-hpux11.23}, Awk mishandles @code{printf} conversions
+after @code{%u}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{awk 'BEGIN @{ printf "%u %d\n", 0, -1 @}'}
+0 0
+@end example
+
+AIX version 5.2 has an arbitrary limit of 399 on the
+length of regular expressions and literal strings in an Awk program.
+
+Traditional Awk implementations derived from Unix version 7, such as
+Solaris @command{/bin/awk}, have many limitations and do not
+conform to Posix.  Nowadays @code{AC_PROG_AWK} (@pxref{Particular
+Programs}) finds you an Awk that doesn't have these problems, but if
+for some reason you prefer not to use @code{AC_PROG_AWK} you may need to
+address them.  For more detailed descriptions, see @ref{Language
+History, , @command{awk} language history, gawk, GNU Awk User's Guide}.
+
+Traditional Awk does not support multidimensional arrays or user-defined
+functions.
+
+Traditional Awk does not support the @option{-v} option.  You can use
+assignments after the program instead, e.g., @code{$AWK '@{print v
+$1@}' v=x}; however, don't forget that such assignments are not
+evaluated until they are encountered (e.g., after any @code{BEGIN}
+action).
+
+Traditional Awk does not support the keywords @code{delete} or @code{do}.
+
+Traditional Awk does not support the expressions
+@code{@var{a}?@var{b}:@var{c}}, @code{!@var{a}}, @code{@var{a}^@var{b}},
+or @code{@var{a}^=@var{b}}.
+
+Traditional Awk does not support the predefined @code{CONVFMT} or
+@code{ENVIRON} variables.
+
+Traditional Awk supports only the predefined functions @code{exp}, @code{index},
+@code{int}, @code{length}, @code{log}, @code{split}, @code{sprintf},
+@code{sqrt}, and @code{substr}.
+
+Traditional Awk @code{getline} is not at all compatible with Posix;
+avoid it.
+
+Traditional Awk has @code{for (i in a) @dots{}} but no other uses of the
+@code{in} keyword.  For example, it lacks @code{if (i in a) @dots{}}.
+
+In code portable to both traditional and modern Awk, @code{FS} must be a
+string containing just one ordinary character, and similarly for the
+field-separator argument to @code{split}.
+
+Traditional Awk has a limit of 99 fields in a record.  Since some Awk
+implementations, like Tru64's, split the input even if you don't refer
+to any field in the script, to circumvent this problem, set @samp{FS}
+to an unusual character and use @code{split}.
+
+Traditional Awk has a limit of at most 99 bytes in a number formatted by
+@code{OFMT}; for example, @code{OFMT="%.300e"; print 0.1;} typically
+dumps core.
+
+The original version of Awk had a limit of at most 99 bytes per
+@code{split} field, 99 bytes per @code{substr} substring, and 99 bytes
+per run of non-special characters in a @code{printf} format, but these
+bugs have been fixed on all practical hosts that we know of.
+
+HP-UX 11.00 and IRIX 6.5 Awk require that input files have a line length
+of at most 3070 bytes.

+@item @command{cat}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{cat}
+Don't rely on any option.
+
+
+@item @command{cc}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{cc}
+The command @samp{cc -c foo.c} traditionally produces an object file
+named @file{foo.o}.  Most compilers allow @option{-c} to be combined
+with @option{-o} to specify a different object file name, but
+Posix does not require this combination and a few compilers
+lack support for it.  @xref{C Compiler}, for how GNU Make
+tests for this feature with @code{AC_PROG_CC_C_O}.
+
+When a compilation such as @samp{cc -o foo foo.c} fails, some compilers
+(such as CDS on Reliant Unix) leave a @file{foo.o}.
+
+HP-UX @command{cc} doesn't accept @file{.S} files to preprocess and
+assemble.  @samp{cc -c foo.S} appears to succeed, but in fact does
+nothing.
+
+The default executable, produced by @samp{cc foo.c}, can be
+
+@itemize
+@item @file{a.out} --- usual Posix convention.
+@item @file{b.out} --- i960 compilers (including @command{gcc}).
+@item @file{a.exe} --- DJGPP port of @command{gcc}.
+@item @file{a_out.exe} --- GNV @command{cc} wrapper for DEC C on OpenVMS.
+@item @file{foo.exe} --- various MS-DOS compilers.
+@end itemize
+
+The C compiler's traditional name is @command{cc}, but other names like
+@command{gcc} are common.  Posix 1003.1-2001 specifies the
+name @command{c99}, but older Posix editions specified
+@command{c89} and anyway these standard names are rarely used in
+practice.  Typically the C compiler is invoked from makefiles that use
+@samp{$(CC)}, so the value of the @samp{CC} make variable selects the
+compiler name.
+
+@item @command{chgrp}

+@c -------------------
+@prindex @command{chgrp}
+@prindex @command{chown}
+It is not portable to change a file's group to a group that the owner
+does not belong to.
+
+@item @command{chmod}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{chmod}
+Avoid usages like @samp{chmod -w file}; use @samp{chmod a-w file}
+instead, for two reasons.  First, plain @option{-w} does not necessarily
+make the file unwritable, since it does not affect mode bits that
+correspond to bits in the file mode creation mask.  Second,
+Posix says that the @option{-w} might be interpreted as an
+implementation-specific option, not as a mode; Posix suggests
+using @samp{chmod -- -w file} to avoid this confusion, but unfortunately
+@samp{--} does not work on some older hosts.
+
+
+@item @command{cmp}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{cmp}
+@command{cmp} performs a raw data comparison of two files, while
+@command{diff} compares two text files.  Therefore, if you might compare
+DOS files, even if only checking whether two files are different, use
+@command{diff} to avoid spurious differences due to differences of
+newline encoding.
+
+
+@item @command{cp}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{cp}
+Avoid the @option{-r} option, since Posix 1003.1-2004 marks it as
+obsolescent and its behavior on special files is implementation-defined.
+Use @option{-R} instead.  On GNU hosts the two options
+are equivalent, but on Solaris hosts (for example) @code{cp -r}
+reads from pipes instead of replicating them.  AIX 5.3 @code{cp -R} may
+corrupt its own memory with some directory hierarchies and error out or
+dump core:
+
+@example
+@kbd{mkdir -p 12345678/12345678/12345678/12345678}
+@kbd{touch 12345678/12345678/x}
+@kbd{cp -R 12345678 t}
+cp: 0653-440 12345678/12345678/: name too long.
+@end example
+
+Some @command{cp} implementations (e.g., BSD/OS 4.2) do not allow
+trailing slashes at the end of nonexistent destination directories.  To
+avoid this problem, omit the trailing slashes.  For example, use
+@samp{cp -R source /tmp/newdir} rather than @samp{cp -R source
+/tmp/newdir/} if @file{/tmp/newdir} does not exist.
+
+@c This is thanks to Ian.
+The ancient SunOS 4 @command{cp} does not support @option{-f}, although
+its @command{mv} does.
+
+@cindex timestamp resolution
+Traditionally, file timestamps had 1-second resolution, and @samp{cp
+-p} copied the timestamps exactly.  However, many modern file systems
+have timestamps with 1-nanosecond resolution.  Unfortunately, some older
+@samp{cp -p} implementations truncate timestamps when copying files,
+which can cause the destination file to appear to be older than the
+source.  The exact amount of truncation depends on the resolution of
+the system calls that @command{cp} uses.  Traditionally this was
+@code{utime}, which has 1-second resolution.  Less-ancient @command{cp}
+implementations such as GNU Core Utilities 5.0.91 (2003) use
+@code{utimes}, which has 1-microsecond resolution.  Modern
+implementations such as GNU Core Utilities 6.12 (2008) can set timestamps to
+the full nanosecond resolution, using the modern system calls
+@code{futimens} and @code{utimensat} when they are available.  As of
+2011, though, many platforms do not yet fully support these new system
+calls.
+
+Bob Proulx notes that @samp{cp -p} always @emph{tries} to copy
+ownerships.  But whether it actually does copy ownerships or not is a
+system dependent policy decision implemented by the kernel.  If the
+kernel allows it then it happens.  If the kernel does not allow it then
+it does not happen.  It is not something @command{cp} itself has control
+over.
+
+In Unix System V any user can chown files to any other user, and System
+V also has a non-sticky @file{/tmp}.  That probably derives from the
+heritage of System V in a business environment without hostile users.
+BSD changed this
+to be a more secure model where only root can @command{chown} files and
+a sticky @file{/tmp} is used.  That undoubtedly derives from the heritage
+of BSD in a campus environment.
+
+GNU/Linux and Solaris by default follow BSD, but
+can be configured to allow a System V style @command{chown}.  On the
+other hand, HP-UX follows System V, but can
+be configured to use the modern security model and disallow
+@command{chown}.  Since it is an administrator-configurable parameter
+you can't use the name of the kernel as an indicator of the behavior.
+
+
+
+@item @command{date}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{date}
+Some versions of @command{date} do not recognize special @samp{%} directives,
+and unfortunately, instead of complaining, they just pass them through,
+and exit with success:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{uname -a}

+@item @command{diff}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{diff}
+Option @option{-u} is nonportable.
+
+Some implementations, such as Tru64's, fail when comparing to
+@file{/dev/null}.  Use an empty file instead.
+
+
+@item @command{dirname}
+@c --------------------
+@prindex @command{dirname}
+Not all hosts have a working @command{dirname}, and you should instead
+use @code{AS_DIRNAME} (@pxref{Programming in M4sh}).  For example:
+
+@example
+dir=`dirname "$file"`       # This is not portable.
+dir=`AS_DIRNAME(["$file"])` # This is more portable.
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{egrep}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{egrep}
+Posix 1003.1-2001 no longer requires @command{egrep},
+but many hosts do not yet support the Posix
+replacement @code{grep -E}.  Also, some traditional implementations do
+not work on long input lines.  To work around these problems, invoke
+@code{AC_PROG_EGREP} and then use @code{$EGREP}.
+
+Portable extended regular expressions should use @samp{\} only to escape
+characters in the string @samp{$()*+.?[\^@{|}.  For example, @samp{\@}}
+is not portable, even though it typically matches @samp{@}}.
+
+The empty alternative is not portable.  Use @samp{?} instead.  For
+instance with Digital Unix v5.0:
+
+@example
+> printf "foo\n|foo\n" | $EGREP '^(|foo|bar)$'
+|foo
+> printf "bar\nbar|\n" | $EGREP '^(foo|bar|)$'
+bar|
+> printf "foo\nfoo|\n|bar\nbar\n" | $EGREP '^(foo||bar)$'
+foo
+|bar
+@end example
+
+@command{$EGREP} also suffers the limitations of @command{grep}
+(@pxref{grep, , Limitations of Usual Tools}).
+
+@item @command{expr}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{expr}
+Not all implementations obey the Posix rule that @samp{--} separates
+options from arguments; likewise, not all implementations provide the
+extension to Posix that the first argument can be treated as part of a
+valid expression rather than an invalid option if it begins with
+@samp{-}.  When performing arithmetic, use @samp{expr 0 + $var} if
+@samp{$var} might be a negative number, to keep @command{expr} from
+interpreting it as an option.
+
+No @command{expr} keyword starts with @samp{X}, so use @samp{expr
+X"@var{word}" : 'X@var{regex}'} to keep @command{expr} from
+misinterpreting @var{word}.
+
+Don't use @code{length}, @code{substr}, @code{match} and @code{index}.
+
+@item @command{expr} (@samp{|})
+@prindex @command{expr} (@samp{|})
+You can use @samp{|}.  Although Posix does require that @samp{expr
+''} return the empty string, it does not specify the result when you
+@samp{|} together the empty string (or zero) with the empty string.  For
+example:
+
+@example
+expr '' \| ''
+@end example
+
+Posix 1003.2-1992 returns the empty string
+for this case, but traditional Unix returns @samp{0} (Solaris is
+one such example).  In Posix 1003.1-2001, the specification was
+changed to match traditional Unix's behavior (which is
+bizarre, but it's too late to fix this).  Please note that the same
+problem does arise when the empty string results from a computation,
+as in:
+
+@example
+expr bar : foo \| foo : bar
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Avoid this portability problem by avoiding the empty string.
+
+
+@item @command{expr} (@samp{:})
+@c ----------------------------
+@prindex @command{expr}
+Portable @command{expr} regular expressions should use @samp{\} to
+escape only characters in the string @samp{$()*.0123456789[\^n@{@}}.
+For example, alternation, @samp{\|}, is common but Posix does not
+require its support, so it should be avoided in portable scripts.
+Similarly, @samp{\+} and @samp{\?} should be avoided.
+
+Portable @command{expr} regular expressions should not begin with
+@samp{^}.  Patterns are automatically anchored so leading @samp{^} is
+not needed anyway.
+
+On the other hand, the behavior of the @samp{$} anchor is not portable
+on multi-line strings.  Posix is ambiguous whether the anchor applies to
+each line, as was done in older versions of the GNU Core Utilities, or
+whether it applies only to the end of the overall string, as in
+Coreutils 6.0 and most other implementations.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{baz='foo}
+> @kbd{bar'}
+$ @kbd{expr "X$baz" : 'X\(foo\)$'}
+
+$ @kbd{expr-5.97 "X$baz" : 'X\(foo\)$'}
+foo
+@end example
+
+The Posix standard is ambiguous as to whether
+@samp{expr 'a' : '\(b\)'} outputs @samp{0} or the empty string.
+In practice, it outputs the empty string on most platforms, but portable
+scripts should not assume this.  For instance, the QNX 4.25 native
+@command{expr} returns @samp{0}.
+
+One might think that a way to get a uniform behavior would be to use
+the empty string as a default value:
+
+@example
+expr a : '\(b\)' \| ''
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Unfortunately this behaves exactly as the original expression; see the
+@command{expr} (@samp{|}) entry for more information.
+
+Some ancient @command{expr} implementations (e.g., SunOS 4 @command{expr} and
+Solaris 8 @command{/usr/ucb/expr}) have a silly length limit that causes
+@command{expr} to fail if the matched substring is longer than 120
+bytes.  In this case, you might want to fall back on @samp{echo|sed} if
+@command{expr} fails.  Nowadays this is of practical importance only for
+the rare installer who mistakenly puts @file{/usr/ucb} before
+@file{/usr/bin} in @env{PATH}.
+
+On Mac OS X 10.4, @command{expr} mishandles the pattern @samp{[^-]} in
+some cases.  For example, the command
+@example
+expr Xpowerpc-apple-darwin8.1.0 : 'X[^-]*-[^-]*-\(.*\)'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+outputs @samp{apple-darwin8.1.0} rather than the correct @samp{darwin8.1.0}.
+This particular case can be worked around by substituting @samp{[^--]}
+for @samp{[^-]}.
+
+Don't leave, there is some more!
+
+The QNX 4.25 @command{expr}, in addition of preferring @samp{0} to
+the empty string, has a funny behavior in its exit status: it's always 1
+when parentheses are used!
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{val=`expr 'a' : 'a'`; echo "$?: $val"}
+0: 1
+$ @kbd{val=`expr 'a' : 'b'`; echo "$?: $val"}
+1: 0
+
+$ @kbd{val=`expr 'a' : '\(a\)'`; echo "?: $val"}
+1: a
+$ @kbd{val=`expr 'a' : '\(b\)'`; echo "?: $val"}
+1: 0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In practice this can be a big problem if you are ready to catch failures
+of @command{expr} programs with some other method (such as using
+@command{sed}), since you may get twice the result.  For instance
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{expr 'a' : '\(a\)' || echo 'a' | sed 's/^\(a\)$/\1/'}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+outputs @samp{a} on most hosts, but @samp{aa} on QNX 4.25.  A
+simple workaround consists of testing @command{expr} and using a variable
+set to @command{expr} or to @command{false} according to the result.
+
+Tru64 @command{expr} incorrectly treats the result as a number, if it
+can be interpreted that way:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{expr 00001 : '.*\(...\)'}
+1
+@end example
+
+On HP-UX 11, @command{expr} only supports a single
+sub-expression.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{expr 'Xfoo' : 'X\(f\(oo\)*\)$'}
+expr: More than one '\(' was used.
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{fgrep}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{fgrep}
+Posix 1003.1-2001 no longer requires @command{fgrep},
+but many hosts do not yet support the Posix
+replacement @code{grep -F}.  Also, some traditional implementations do
+not work on long input lines.  To work around these problems, invoke
+@code{AC_PROG_FGREP} and then use @code{$FGREP}.
+
+Tru64/OSF 5.1 @command{fgrep} does not match an empty pattern.
+
+
+@item @command{find}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{find}
+The option @option{-maxdepth} seems to be GNU specific.
+Tru64 v5.1, NetBSD 1.5 and Solaris @command{find}
+commands do not understand it.
+
+The replacement of @samp{@{@}} is guaranteed only if the argument is
+exactly @emph{@{@}}, not if it's only a part of an argument.  For
+instance on DU, and HP-UX 10.20 and HP-UX 11:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{touch foo}
+$ @kbd{find . -name foo -exec echo "@{@}-@{@}" \;}
+@{@}-@{@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+while GNU @command{find} reports @samp{./foo-./foo}.
+
+
+@anchor{grep}
+@item @command{grep}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{grep}
+Portable scripts can rely on the @command{grep} options @option{-c},
+@option{-l}, @option{-n}, and @option{-v}, but should avoid other
+options.  For example, don't use @option{-w}, as Posix does not require
+it and Irix 6.5.16m's @command{grep} does not support it.  Also,
+portable scripts should not combine @option{-c} with @option{-l},
+as Posix does not allow this.
+
+Some of the options required by Posix are not portable in practice.
+Don't use @samp{grep -q} to suppress output, because many @command{grep}
+implementations (e.g., Solaris) do not support @option{-q}.
+Don't use @samp{grep -s} to suppress output either, because Posix
+says @option{-s} does not suppress output, only some error messages;
+also, the @option{-s} option of traditional @command{grep} behaved
+like @option{-q} does in most modern implementations.  Instead,
+redirect the standard output and standard error (in case the file
+doesn't exist) of @code{grep} to @file{/dev/null}.  Check the exit
+status of @code{grep} to determine whether it found a match.
+
+The QNX4 implementation fails to count lines with @code{grep -c '$'},
+but works with @code{grep -c '^'}.  Other alternatives for counting
+lines are to use @code{sed -n '$='} or @code{wc -l}.
+
+Some traditional @command{grep} implementations do not work on long
+input lines.  On AIX the default @code{grep} silently truncates long
+lines on the input before matching.
+
+Also, many implementations do not support multiple regexps
+with @option{-e}: they either reject @option{-e} entirely (e.g., Solaris)
+or honor only the last pattern (e.g., IRIX 6.5 and NeXT).  To
+work around these problems, invoke @code{AC_PROG_GREP} and then use
+@code{$GREP}.
+
+Another possible workaround for the multiple @option{-e} problem is to
+separate the patterns by newlines, for example:
+
+@example
+grep 'foo
+bar' in.txt
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+except that this fails with traditional @command{grep}
+implementations and with OpenBSD 3.8 @command{grep}.
+
+Traditional @command{grep} implementations (e.g., Solaris) do not
+support the @option{-E} or @option{-F} options.  To work around these
+problems, invoke @code{AC_PROG_EGREP} and then use @code{$EGREP}, and
+similarly for @code{AC_PROG_FGREP} and @code{$FGREP}.  Even if you are
+willing to require support for Posix @command{grep}, your script should
+not use both @option{-E} and @option{-F}, since Posix does not allow
+this combination.
+
+Portable @command{grep} regular expressions should use @samp{\} only to
+escape characters in the string @samp{$()*.0123456789[\^@{@}}.  For example,
+alternation, @samp{\|}, is common but Posix does not require its
+support in basic regular expressions, so it should be avoided in
+portable scripts.  Solaris and HP-UX @command{grep} do not support it.
+Similarly, the following escape sequences should also be avoided:
+@samp{\<}, @samp{\>}, @samp{\+}, @samp{\?}, @samp{\`}, @samp{\'},
+@samp{\B}, @samp{\b}, @samp{\S}, @samp{\s}, @samp{\W}, and @samp{\w}.
+
+Posix does not specify the behavior of @command{grep} on binary files.
+An example where this matters is using BSD @command{grep} to
+search text that includes embedded ANSI escape sequences for
+colored output to terminals (@samp{\033[m} is the sequence to restore
+normal output); the behavior depends on whether input is seekable:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf 'esc\033[mape\n' > sample}
+$ @kbd{grep . sample}
+Binary file sample matches
+$ @kbd{cat sample | grep .}
+escape
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{join}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{join}
+Solaris 8 @command{join} has bugs when the second operand is standard
+input, and when standard input is a pipe.  For example, the following
+shell script causes Solaris 8 @command{join} to loop forever:
+
+@example
+cat >file <<'EOF'
+1 x
+2 y
+EOF
+cat file | join file -
+@end example
+
+Use @samp{join - file} instead.
+
+On NetBSD, @command{join -a 1 file1 file2} mistakenly behaves like
+@command{join -a 1 -a 2 1 file1 file2}, resulting in a usage warning;
+the workaround is to use @command{join -a1 file1 file2} instead.
+
+@item @command{ln}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{ln}
+@cindex Symbolic links
+Don't rely on @command{ln} having a @option{-f} option.  Symbolic links
+are not available on old systems; use @samp{$(LN_S)} as a portable substitute.
+
+For versions of the DJGPP before 2.04,
+@command{ln} emulates symbolic links
+to executables by generating a stub that in turn calls the real
+program.  This feature also works with nonexistent files like in the
+Posix spec.  So @samp{ln -s file link} generates @file{link.exe},
+which attempts to call @file{file.exe} if run.  But this feature only
+works for executables, so @samp{cp -p} is used instead for these
+systems.  DJGPP versions 2.04 and later have full support
+for symbolic links.
+
+
+@item @command{ls}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{ls}
+@cindex Listing directories
+The portable options are @option{-acdilrtu}.  Current practice is for
+@option{-l} to output both owner and group, even though ancient versions
+of @command{ls} omitted the group.
+
+On ancient hosts, @samp{ls foo} sent the diagnostic @samp{foo not found}
+to standard output if @file{foo} did not exist.  Hence a shell command
+like @samp{sources=`ls *.c 2>/dev/null`} did not always work, since it
+was equivalent to @samp{sources='*.c not found'} in the absence of
+@samp{.c} files.  This is no longer a practical problem, since current
+@command{ls} implementations send diagnostics to standard error.
+
+The behavior of @command{ls} on a directory that is being concurrently
+modified is not always predictable, because of a data race where cached
+information returned by @code{readdir} does not match the current
+directory state.  In fact, MacOS 10.5 has an intermittent bug where
+@code{readdir}, and thus @command{ls}, sometimes lists a file more than
+once if other files were added or removed from the directory immediately
+prior to the @command{ls} call.  Since @command{ls} already sorts its
+output, the duplicate entries can be avoided by piping the results
+through @code{uniq}.
+
+@anchor{mkdir}
+@item @command{mkdir}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{mkdir}
+@cindex Making directories
+No @command{mkdir} option is portable to older systems.  Instead of
+@samp{mkdir -p @var{file-name}}, you should use
+@code{AS_MKDIR_P(@var{file-name})} (@pxref{Programming in M4sh})
+or @code{AC_PROG_MKDIR_P} (@pxref{Particular Programs}).
+
+Combining the @option{-m} and @option{-p} options, as in @samp{mkdir -m
+go-w -p @var{dir}}, often leads to trouble.  FreeBSD
+@command{mkdir} incorrectly attempts to change the permissions of
+@var{dir} even if it already exists.  HP-UX 11.23 and
+IRIX 6.5 @command{mkdir} often assign the wrong permissions to
+any newly-created parents of @var{dir}.
+
+Posix does not clearly specify whether @samp{mkdir -p foo}
+should succeed when @file{foo} is a symbolic link to an already-existing
+directory.  The GNU Core Utilities 5.1.0 @command{mkdir}
+succeeds, but Solaris @command{mkdir} fails.
+
+Traditional @code{mkdir -p} implementations suffer from race conditions.
+For example, if you invoke @code{mkdir -p a/b} and @code{mkdir -p a/c}
+at the same time, both processes might detect that @file{a} is missing,
+one might create @file{a}, then the other might try to create @file{a}
+and fail with a @code{File exists} diagnostic.  The GNU Core
+Utilities (@samp{fileutils} version 4.1), FreeBSD 5.0,
+NetBSD 2.0.2, and OpenBSD 2.4 are known to be
+race-free when two processes invoke @code{mkdir -p} simultaneously, but
+earlier versions are vulnerable.  Solaris @command{mkdir} is still
+vulnerable as of Solaris 10, and other traditional Unix systems are
+probably vulnerable too.  This possible race is harmful in parallel
+builds when several Make rules call @code{mkdir -p} to
+construct directories.  You may use
+@code{install-sh -d} as a safe replacement, provided this script is
+recent enough; the copy shipped with Autoconf 2.60 and Automake 1.10 is
+OK, but copies from older versions are vulnerable.
+
+
+@item @command{mkfifo}
+@itemx @command{mknod}
+@c -------------------
+@prindex @command{mkfifo}
+@prindex @command{mknod}
+The GNU Coding Standards state that @command{mknod} is safe to use on
+platforms where it has been tested to exist; but it is generally portable
+only for creating named FIFOs, since device numbers are
+platform-specific.  Autotest uses @command{mkfifo} to implement parallel
+testsuites.  Posix states that behavior is unspecified when opening a
+named FIFO for both reading and writing; on at least Cygwin, this
+results in failure on any attempt to read or write to that file
+descriptor.
+
+@item @command{mktemp}
+@c -------------------
+@prindex @command{mktemp}
+@cindex Creating temporary files
+Shell scripts can use temporary files safely with @command{mktemp}, but
+it does not exist on all systems.  A portable way to create a safe
+temporary file name is to create a temporary directory with mode 700 and
+use a file inside this directory.  Both methods prevent attackers from
+gaining control, though @command{mktemp} is far less likely to fail
+gratuitously under attack.
+
+Here is sample code to create a new temporary directory @samp{$dir} safely:
+
+@example
+# Create a temporary directory $dir in $TMPDIR (default /tmp).
+# Use mktemp if possible; otherwise fall back on mkdir,
+# with $RANDOM to make collisions less likely.
+: "$@{TMPDIR:=/tmp@}"
+@{
+  dir=`
+    (umask 077 && mktemp -d "$TMPDIR/fooXXXXXX") 2>/dev/null
+  ` &&
+  test -d "$dir"
+@} || @{
+  dir=$TMPDIR/foo$$-$RANDOM
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+  (umask 077 && mkdir "$dir")
+@} || exit $?
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{mv}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{mv}
+@cindex Moving open files
+The only portable options are @option{-f} and @option{-i}.
+
+Moving individual files between file systems is portable (it was in Unix
+version 6),
+but it is not always atomic: when doing @samp{mv new existing}, there's
+a critical section where neither the old nor the new version of
+@file{existing} actually exists.
+
+On some systems moving files from @file{/tmp} can sometimes cause
+undesirable (but perfectly valid) warnings, even if you created these
+files.  This is because @file{/tmp} belongs to a group that ordinary
+users are not members of, and files created in @file{/tmp} inherit
+the group of @file{/tmp}.  When the file is copied, @command{mv} issues
+a diagnostic without failing:
+
+@smallexample
+$ @kbd{touch /tmp/foo}
+$ @kbd{mv /tmp/foo .}
+@error{}mv: ./foo: set owner/group (was: 100/0): Operation not permitted
+$ @kbd{echo $?}
+0
+$ @kbd{ls foo}
+foo
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+This annoying behavior conforms to Posix, unfortunately.
+
+Moving directories across mount points is not portable, use @command{cp}
+and @command{rm}.
+
+DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, and do not
+support commands like @samp{mv foo bar >foo}, even though this is
+perfectly portable among Posix hosts.
+
+
+@item @command{od}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{od}
+
+In Mac OS X 10.3, @command{od} does not support the
+standard Posix options @option{-A}, @option{-j}, @option{-N}, or
+@option{-t}, or the XSI option @option{-s}.  The only
+supported Posix option is @option{-v}, and the only supported
+XSI options are those in @option{-bcdox}.  The BSD
+@command{hexdump} program can be used instead.
+
+This problem no longer exists in Mac OS X 10.4.3.
+
+
+@item @command{rm}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{rm}
+The @option{-f} and @option{-r} options are portable.
+
+It is not portable to invoke @command{rm} without options or operands.
+On the other hand, Posix now requires @command{rm -f} to silently
+succeed when there are no operands (useful for constructs like
+@command{rm -rf $filelist} without first checking if @samp{$filelist}
+was empty).  But this was not always portable; at least NetBSD
+@command{rm} built before 2008 would fail with a diagnostic.
+
+A file might not be removed even if its parent directory is writable
+and searchable.  Many Posix hosts cannot remove a mount point, a named
+stream, a working directory, or a last link to a file that is being
+executed.
+
+DOS variants cannot rename or remove open files, and do not
+support commands like @samp{rm foo >foo}, even though this is
+perfectly portable among Posix hosts.
+
+@item @command{rmdir}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{rmdir}
+Just as with @command{rm}, some platforms refuse to remove a working
+directory.
+
+@anchor{sed}
+@item @command{sed}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{sed}
+Patterns should not include the separator (unless escaped), even as part
+of a character class.  In conformance with Posix, the Cray
+@command{sed} rejects @samp{s/[^/]*$//}: use @samp{s%[^/]*$%%}.
+Even when escaped, patterns should not include separators that are also
+used as @command{sed} metacharacters.  For example, GNU sed 4.0.9 rejects
+@samp{s,x\@{1\,\@},,}, while sed 4.1 strips the backslash before the comma
+before evaluating the basic regular expression.
+
+Avoid empty patterns within parentheses (i.e., @samp{\(\)}).  Posix does
+not require support for empty patterns, and Unicos 9 @command{sed} rejects
+them.
+
+Unicos 9 @command{sed} loops endlessly on patterns like @samp{.*\n.*}.
+
+Sed scripts should not use branch labels longer than 7 characters and
+should not contain comments; AIX 5.3 @command{sed} rejects indented comments.
+HP-UX sed has a limit of 99 commands (not counting @samp{:} commands) and
+48 labels, which cannot be circumvented by using more than one script
+file.  It can execute up to 19 reads with the @samp{r} command per cycle.
+Solaris @command{/usr/ucb/sed} rejects usages that exceed a limit of
+about 6000 bytes for the internal representation of commands.
+
+Avoid redundant @samp{;}, as some @command{sed} implementations, such as
+NetBSD 1.4.2's, incorrectly try to interpret the second
+@samp{;} as a command:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo a | sed 's/x/x/;;s/x/x/'}
+sed: 1: "s/x/x/;;s/x/x/": invalid command code ;
+@end example
+
+Some @command{sed} implementations have a buffer limited to 4000 bytes,
+and this limits the size of input lines, output lines, and internal
+buffers that can be processed portably.  Likewise,
+not all @command{sed} implementations can handle embedded @code{NUL} or
+a missing trailing newline.
+
+Remember that ranges within a bracket expression of a regular expression
+are only well-defined in the @samp{C} (or @samp{POSIX}) locale.
+Meanwhile, support for character classes like @samp{[[:upper:]]} is not
+yet universal, so if you cannot guarantee the setting of @env{LC_ALL},
+it is better to spell out a range @samp{[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ]}
+than to rely on @samp{[A-Z]}.
+
+Additionally, Posix states that regular expressions are only
+well-defined on characters.  Unfortunately, there exist platforms such
+as MacOS X 10.5 where not all 8-bit byte values are valid characters,
+even though that platform has a single-byte @samp{C} locale.  And Posix
+allows the existence of a multi-byte @samp{C} locale, although that does
+not yet appear to be a common implementation.  At any rate, it means
+that not all bytes will be matched by the regular expression @samp{.}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf '\200\n' | LC_ALL=C sed -n /./p | wc -l}
+0
+$ @kbd{printf '\200\n' | LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1 sed -n /./p | wc -l}
+1
+@end example
+
+Portable @command{sed} regular expressions should use @samp{\} only to escape
+characters in the string @samp{$()*.0123456789[\^n@{@}}.  For example,
+alternation, @samp{\|}, is common but Posix does not require its
+support, so it should be avoided in portable scripts.  Solaris
+@command{sed} does not support alternation; e.g., @samp{sed '/a\|b/d'}
+deletes only lines that contain the literal string @samp{a|b}.
+Similarly, @samp{\+} and @samp{\?} should be avoided.
+
+Anchors (@samp{^} and @samp{$}) inside groups are not portable.
+
+Nested parentheses in patterns (e.g., @samp{\(\(a*\)b*)\)}) are
+quite portable to current hosts, but was not supported by some ancient
+@command{sed} implementations like SVR3.
+
+Some @command{sed} implementations, e.g., Solaris, restrict the special
+role of the asterisk @samp{*} to one-character regular expressions and
+back-references, and the special role of interval expressions
+@samp{\@{@var{m}\@}}, @samp{\@{@var{m},\@}}, or @samp{\@{@var{m},@var{n}\@}}
+to one-character regular expressions.  This may lead to unexpected behavior:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo '1*23*4' | /usr/bin/sed 's/\(.\)*/x/g'}
+x2x4
+$ @kbd{echo '1*23*4' | /usr/xpg4/bin/sed 's/\(.\)*/x/g'}
+x
+@end example
+
+The @option{-e} option is mostly portable.
+However, its argument
+cannot start with @samp{a}, @samp{c}, or @samp{i},
+as this runs afoul of a Tru64 5.1 bug.
+Also, its argument cannot be empty, as this fails on AIX 5.3.
+Some people prefer to use @samp{-e}:
+
+@example
+sed -e '@var{command-1}' \
+    -e '@var{command-2}'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+as opposed to the equivalent:
+
+@example
+sed '
+  @var{command-1}
+  @var{command-2}
+'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The following usage is sometimes equivalent:
+
+@example
+sed '@var{command-1};@var{command-2}'
+@end example
+
+but Posix says that this use of a semicolon has undefined effect if
+@var{command-1}'s verb is @samp{@{}, @samp{a}, @samp{b}, @samp{c},
+@samp{i}, @samp{r}, @samp{t}, @samp{w}, @samp{:}, or @samp{#}, so you
+should use semicolon only with simple scripts that do not use these
+verbs.
+
+Posix up to the 2008 revision requires the argument of the @option{-e}
+option to be a syntactically complete script.  GNU @command{sed} allows
+to pass multiple script fragments, each as argument of a separate
+@option{-e} option, that are then combined, with newlines between the
+fragments, and a future Posix revision may allow this as well.  This
+approach is not portable with script fragments ending in backslash; for
+example, the @command{sed} programs on Solaris 10, HP-UX 11, and AIX
+don't allow splitting in this case:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo a | sed -n -e 'i\}
+@kbd{0'}
+0
+$ @kbd{echo a | sed -n -e 'i\' -e 0}
+Unrecognized command: 0
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+In practice, however, this technique of joining fragments
+through @option{-e} works for multiple @command{sed} functions within
+@samp{@{} and @samp{@}}, even if that is not specified by Posix:
+
+@example
+@c The quote around the closing brace silences interactive zsh.
+$ @kbd{echo a | sed -n -e '/a/@{' -e s/a/b/ -e p -e '@}'}
+b
+@end example
+
+Commands inside @{ @} brackets are further restricted.  Posix 2008 says that
+they cannot be preceded by addresses, @samp{!}, or @samp{;}, and that
+each command must be followed immediately by a newline, without any
+intervening blanks or semicolons.  The closing bracket must be alone on
+a line, other than white space preceding or following it.  However, a
+future version of Posix may standardize the use of addresses within brackets.
+
+Contrary to yet another urban legend, you may portably use @samp{&} in
+the replacement part of the @code{s} command to mean ``what was
+matched''.  All descendants of Unix version 7 @command{sed}
+(at least; we
+don't have first hand experience with older @command{sed} implementations) have
+supported it.
+
+Posix requires that you must not have any white space between
+@samp{!} and the following command.  It is OK to have blanks between
+the address and the @samp{!}.  For instance, on Solaris:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/ ! p'}
+@error{}Unrecognized command: /bar/ ! p
+$ @kbd{echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/! p'}
+@error{}Unrecognized command: /bar/! p
+$ @kbd{echo "foo" | sed -n '/bar/ !p'}
+foo
+@end example
+
+Posix also says that you should not combine @samp{!} and @samp{;}.  If
+you use @samp{!}, it is best to put it on a command that is delimited by
+newlines rather than @samp{;}.
+
+Also note that Posix requires that the @samp{b}, @samp{t}, @samp{r}, and
+@samp{w} commands be followed by exactly one space before their argument.
+On the other hand, no white space is allowed between @samp{:} and the
+subsequent label name.
+
+If a sed script is specified on the command line and ends in an
+@samp{a}, @samp{c}, or @samp{i} command, the last line of inserted text
+should be followed by a newline.  Otherwise some @command{sed}
+implementations (e.g., OpenBSD 3.9) do not append a newline to the
+inserted text.
+
+Many @command{sed} implementations (e.g., MacOS X 10.4,
+OpenBSD 3.9, Solaris 10
+@command{/usr/ucb/sed}) strip leading white space from the text of
+@samp{a}, @samp{c}, and @samp{i} commands.  Prepend a backslash to
+work around this incompatibility with Posix:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo flushleft | sed 'a\}
+> @kbd{   indented}
+> @kbd{'}
+flushleft
+indented
+$ @kbd{echo foo | sed 'a\}
+> @kbd{\   indented}
+> @kbd{'}
+flushleft
+   indented
+@end example
+
+Posix requires that with an empty regular expression, the last non-empty
+regular expression from either an address specification or substitution
+command is applied.  However, busybox 1.6.1 complains when using a
+substitution command with a replacement containing a back-reference to
+an empty regular expression; the workaround is repeating the regular
+expression.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo abc | busybox sed '/a\(b\)c/ s//\1/'}
+sed: No previous regexp.
+$ @kbd{echo abc | busybox sed '/a\(b\)c/ s/a\(b\)c/\1/'}
+b
+@end example
+
+
+@item @command{sed} (@samp{t})
+@c ---------------------------
+@prindex @command{sed} (@samp{t})
+Some old systems have @command{sed} that ``forget'' to reset their
+@samp{t} flag when starting a new cycle.  For instance on MIPS
+RISC/OS, and on IRIX 5.3, if you run the following @command{sed}
+script (the line numbers are not actual part of the texts):
+
+@example
+s/keep me/kept/g  # a
+t end             # b
+s/.*/deleted/g    # c
+:end              # d
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+on
+
+@example
+delete me         # 1
+delete me         # 2
+keep me           # 3
+delete me         # 4
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+you get
+
+@example
+deleted
+delete me
+kept
+deleted
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+instead of
+
+@example
+deleted
+deleted
+kept
+deleted
+@end example
+
+Why?  When processing line 1, (c) matches, therefore sets the @samp{t}
+flag, and the output is produced.  When processing
+line 2, the @samp{t} flag is still set (this is the bug).  Command (a)
+fails to match, but @command{sed} is not supposed to clear the @samp{t}
+flag when a substitution fails.  Command (b) sees that the flag is set,
+therefore it clears it, and jumps to (d), hence you get @samp{delete me}
+instead of @samp{deleted}.  When processing line (3), @samp{t} is clear,
+(a) matches, so the flag is set, hence (b) clears the flags and jumps.
+Finally, since the flag is clear, line 4 is processed properly.
+
+There are two things one should remember about @samp{t} in @command{sed}.
+Firstly, always remember that @samp{t} jumps if @emph{some} substitution
+succeeded, not only the immediately preceding substitution.  Therefore,
+always use a fake @samp{t clear} followed by a @samp{:clear} on the next
+line, to reset the @samp{t} flag where needed.
+
+Secondly, you cannot rely on @command{sed} to clear the flag at each new
+cycle.
+
+One portable implementation of the script above is:
+
+@example
+t clear
+:clear
+s/keep me/kept/g
+t end
+s/.*/deleted/g
+:end
+@end example
+
+@item @command{sleep}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{sleep}
+Using @command{sleep} is generally portable.  However, remember that
+adding a @command{sleep} to work around timestamp issues, with a minimum
+granularity of one second, doesn't scale well for parallel builds on
+modern machines with sub-second process completion.
+
+@item @command{sort}
+@c -----------------
+@prindex @command{sort}
+Remember that sort order is influenced by the current locale.  Inside
+@file{configure}, the C locale is in effect, but in Makefile snippets,
+you may need to specify @code{LC_ALL=C sort}.
+
+@item @command{tar}
+@c ----------------
+@prindex @command{tar}
+There are multiple file formats for @command{tar}; if you use Automake,
+the macro @code{AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE} has some options controlling which
+level of portability to use.
+
+@anchor{touch}
+@item @command{touch}
+@c ------------------
+@prindex @command{touch}
+@cindex timestamp resolution
+If you specify the desired timestamp (e.g., with the @option{-r}
+option), older @command{touch} implementations use the @code{utime} or
+@code{utimes} system call, which can result in the same kind of
+timestamp truncation problems that @samp{cp -p} has.
+
+On ancient BSD systems, @command{touch} or any command that
+results in an empty file does not update the timestamps, so use a
+command like @command{echo} as a workaround.
+Also,
+GNU @command{touch} 3.16r (and presumably all before that)
+fails to work on SunOS 4.1.3 when the empty file is on an
+NFS-mounted 4.2 volume.
+However, these problems are no longer of practical concern.
+
+@item @command{tr}
+@c ---------------
+@prindex @command{tr}
+@cindex carriage return, deleting
+@cindex newline, deleting
+@cindex deleting carriage return
+Not all versions of @command{tr} handle all backslash character escapes.
+For example, Solaris 10 @command{/usr/ucb/tr} falls over, even though
+Solaris contains more modern @command{tr} in other locations.
+Using octal escapes is more portable for carriage returns, since
+@samp{\015} is the same for both ASCII and EBCDIC, and since use of
+literal carriage returns in scripts causes a number of other problems.
+But for other characters, like newline, using octal escapes ties the
+operation to ASCII, so it is better to use literal characters.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{@{ echo moon; echo light; @} | /usr/ucb/tr -d '\n' ; echo}
+moo
+light
+$ @kbd{@{ echo moon; echo light; @} | /usr/bin/tr -d '\n' ; echo}
+moonlight
+$ @kbd{@{ echo moon; echo light; @} | /usr/ucb/tr -d '\012' ; echo}
+moonlight
+$ @kbd{nl='}
+@kbd{'; @{ echo moon; echo light; @} | /usr/ucb/tr -d "$nl" ; echo}
+moonlight
+@end example
+
+Not all versions of @command{tr} recognize direct ranges of characters: at
+least Solaris @command{/usr/bin/tr} still fails to do so.  But you can
+use @command{/usr/xpg4/bin/tr} instead, or add brackets (which in Posix
+transliterate to themselves).
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/tr a-z A-Z}
+HAZy FAntAZy
+$ @kbd{echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/tr '[a-z]' '[A-Z]'}
+HAZY FANTAZY
+$ @kbd{echo "Hazy Fantazy" | LC_ALL=C /usr/xpg4/bin/tr a-z A-Z}
+HAZY FANTAZY
+@end example
+
+When providing two arguments, be sure the second string is at least as
+long as the first.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{echo abc | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr bc d}
+adc
+$ @kbd{echo abc | coreutils/tr bc d}
+add
+@end example
+
+Posix requires @command{tr} to operate on binary files.  But at least
+Solaris @command{/usr/ucb/tr} and @command{/usr/bin/tr} silently discard
+@code{NUL} in the input prior to doing any translation.  When using
+@command{tr} to process a binary file that may contain @code{NUL} bytes,
+it is necessary to use @command{/usr/xpg4/bin/tr} instead, or
+@command{/usr/xpg6/bin/tr} if that is available.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf 'a\0b' | /usr/ucb/tr x x | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 62
+$ @kbd{printf 'a\0b' | /usr/bin/tr x x | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 62
+$ @kbd{printf 'a\0b' | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr x x | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 00 62
+@end example
+
+Solaris @command{/usr/ucb/tr} additionally fails to handle @samp{\0} as the
+octal escape for @code{NUL}.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{printf 'abc' | /usr/ucb/tr 'bc' '\0d' | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 62 63
+$ @kbd{printf 'abc' | /usr/bin/tr 'bc' '\0d' | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 00 64
+$ @kbd{printf 'abc' | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr 'bc' '\0d' | od -An -tx1}
+ 61 00 64

+@node $< in Ordinary Make Rules
+@section @code{$<} in Ordinary Make Rules
+
+Posix says that the @samp{$<} construct in makefiles can be
+used only in inference rules and in the @samp{.DEFAULT} rule; its
+meaning in ordinary rules is unspecified.  Solaris @command{make}
+for instance replaces it with the empty string.  OpenBSD (3.0 and
+later) @command{make} diagnoses these uses and errors out.
+
+@node Failure in Make Rules
+@section Failure in Make Rules
+
+Posix 2008 requires that @command{make} must invoke each command with
+the equivalent of a @samp{sh -e -c} subshell, which causes the
+subshell to exit immediately if a subsidiary simple-command fails,
+although not all @command{make} implementations have historically
+followed this rule.  For
+example, the command @samp{touch T; rm -f U} may attempt to
+remove @file{U} even if the @command{touch} fails, although this is not
+permitted with Posix make.  One way to work around failures in simple
+commands is to reword them so that they always succeed, e.g., @samp{touch
+T || :; rm -f U}.
+However, even this approach can run into common bugs in BSD
+implementations of the @option{-e} option of @command{sh} and
+@command{set} (@pxref{set, , Limitations of Shell Builtins}), so if you
+are worried
+about porting to buggy BSD shells it may be simpler to migrate
+complicated @command{make} actions into separate scripts.
+
+@node Special Chars in Names
+@section Special Characters in Make Macro Names
+
+Posix limits macro names to nonempty strings containing only
+ASCII letters and digits, @samp{.}, and @samp{_}.  Many
+@command{make} implementations allow a wider variety of characters, but
+portable makefiles should avoid them.  It is portable to start a name
+with a special character, e.g., @samp{$(.FOO)}.
+
+Some ancient @command{make} implementations don't support leading
+underscores in macro names.  An example is NEWS-OS 4.2R.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+_am_include = #
+_am_quote =
+all:; @@echo this is test
+$ @kbd{make}
+Make: Must be a separator on rules line 2.  Stop.
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile2}
+am_include = #
+am_quote =
+all:; @@echo this is test
+$ @kbd{make -f Makefile2}
+this is test
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+However, this problem is no longer of practical concern.
+
+@node Backslash-Newline-Empty
+@section Backslash-Newline Before Empty Lines
+
+A bug in Bash 2.03 can cause problems if a Make rule contains a
+backslash-newline followed by line that expands to nothing.
+For example, on Solaris 8:
+
+@example
+SHELL = /bin/bash
+EMPTY =
+foo:
+	touch foo \
+	$(EMPTY)
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+executes
+
+@example
+/bin/bash -c 'touch foo \
+'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+which fails with a syntax error, due to the Bash bug.  To avoid this
+problem, avoid nullable macros in the last line of a multiline command.
+
+@c  This has been seen on ia64 hpux 11.20, and on one hppa hpux 10.20,
+@c  but another hppa hpux 10.20 didn't have it.  Bob Proulx
+@c  <bob@proulx.com> thinks it was in hpux 8.0 too.
+On some versions of HP-UX, @command{make} reads multiple newlines
+following a backslash, continuing to the next non-empty line.  For
+example,
+
+@example
+FOO = one \
+
+BAR = two
+
+test:
+        : FOO is "$(FOO)"
+        : BAR is "$(BAR)"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+shows @code{FOO} equal to @code{one BAR = two}.  Other implementations
+sensibly let a backslash continue only to the immediately following
+line.
+
+@node Backslash-Newline Comments
+@section Backslash-Newline in Make Comments
+
+According to Posix, Make comments start with @code{#}
+and continue until an unescaped newline is reached.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+# A = foo \
+      bar \
+      baz
+
+all:
+        @@echo ok
+$ @kbd{make}   # GNU make
+ok
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+However this is not always the case.  Some implementations
+discard everything from @code{#} through the end of the line, ignoring any
+trailing backslash.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{pmake}  # BSD make
+"Makefile", line 3: Need an operator
+Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Therefore, if you want to comment out a multi-line definition, prefix each
+line with @code{#}, not only the first.

+@example
+# A = foo \
+#     bar \
+#     baz

+
+@node Macros and Submakes
+@section @code{make macro=value} and Submakes
+
+A command-line variable definition such as @code{foo=bar} overrides any
+definition of @code{foo} in a makefile.  Some @command{make}
+implementations (such as GNU @command{make}) propagate this
+override to subsidiary invocations of @command{make}.  Some other
+implementations do not pass the substitution along to submakes.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+foo = foo
+one:
+        @@echo $(foo)
+        $(MAKE) two

+make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/adl'
+$ @kbd{pmake foo=bar}           # BSD make

+pmake two
+foo
+@end example
+
+You have a few possibilities if you do want the @code{foo=bar} override
+to propagate to submakes.  One is to use the @option{-e}
+option, which causes all environment variables to have precedence over
+the makefile macro definitions, and declare foo as an environment
+variable:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{env foo=bar make -e}
+@end example
+
+The @option{-e} option is propagated to submakes automatically,
+and since the environment is inherited between @command{make}
+invocations, the @code{foo} macro is overridden in
+submakes as expected.
+
+This syntax (@code{foo=bar make -e}) is portable only when used
+outside of a makefile, for instance from a script or from the
+command line.  When run inside a @command{make} rule, GNU
+@command{make} 3.80 and prior versions forget to propagate the
+@option{-e} option to submakes.
+
+Moreover, using @option{-e} could have unexpected side effects if your
+environment contains some other macros usually defined by the
+makefile.  (See also the note about @code{make -e} and @code{SHELL}
+below.)
+
+If you can foresee all macros that a user might want to override, then
+you can propagate them to submakes manually, from your makefile:
+
+@example
+foo = foo
+one:
+        @@echo $(foo)
+        $(MAKE) foo=$(foo) two
+two:
+        @@echo $(foo)
+@end example
+
+Another way to propagate a variable to submakes in a portable way is to
+expand an extra variable in every invocation of @samp{$(MAKE)} within
+your makefile:
+
+@example
+foo = foo
+one:
+        @@echo $(foo)
+        $(MAKE) $(SUBMAKEFLAGS) two

+
+Users must be aware that this technique is in use to take advantage of
+it, e.g.@: with @code{make foo=bar SUBMAKEFLAGS='foo=bar'}, but it
+allows any macro to be overridden.  Makefiles generated by
+@command{automake} use this technique, expanding @code{$(AM_MAKEFLAGS)}
+on the command lines of submakes (@pxref{Subdirectories, , Automake,
+automake, GNU Automake}).
+
+@node The Make Macro MAKEFLAGS
+@section The Make Macro MAKEFLAGS
+@cindex @code{MAKEFLAGS} and @command{make}
+@cindex @command{make} and @code{MAKEFLAGS}
+
+Posix requires @command{make} to use @code{MAKEFLAGS} to affect the
+current and recursive invocations of make, but allows implementations
+several formats for the variable.  It is tricky to parse
+@code{$MAKEFLAGS} to determine whether @option{-s} for silent execution
+or @option{-k} for continued execution are in effect.  For example, you
+cannot assume that the first space-separated word in @code{$MAKEFLAGS}
+contains single-letter options, since in the Cygwin version of
+GNU @command{make} it is either @option{--unix} or
+@option{--win32} with the second word containing single-letter options.

+@node The Make Macro SHELL
+@section The Make Macro @code{SHELL}
+@cindex @code{SHELL} and @command{make}
+@cindex @command{make} and @code{SHELL}
+
+Posix-compliant @command{make} internally uses the @code{$(SHELL)}
+macro to spawn shell processes and execute Make rules.  This
+is a builtin macro supplied by @command{make}, but it can be modified
+by a makefile or by a command-line argument.
+
+Not all @command{make} implementations define this @code{SHELL} macro.
+Tru64
+@command{make} is an example; this implementation always uses
+@code{/bin/sh}.  So it's a good idea to always define @code{SHELL} in
+your makefiles.  If you use Autoconf, do
+
+@example
+SHELL = @@SHELL@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If you use Automake, this is done for you.
+
+Do not force @code{SHELL = /bin/sh} because that is not correct
+everywhere.  Remember, @file{/bin/sh} is not Posix compliant on many
+systems, such as FreeBSD 4, NetBSD 3, AIX 3, Solaris 10, or Tru64.
+Additionally, DJGPP lacks @code{/bin/sh}, and when its
+GNU @command{make} port sees such a setting it enters a
+special emulation mode where features like pipes and redirections are
+emulated on top of DOS's @command{command.com}.  Unfortunately this
+emulation is incomplete; for instance it does not handle command
+substitutions.  Using @code{@@SHELL@@} means that your makefile will
+benefit from the same improved shell, such as @command{bash} or
+@command{ksh}, that was discovered during @command{configure}, so that
+you aren't fighting two different sets of shell bugs between the two
+contexts.
+
+Posix-compliant @command{make} should never acquire the value of
+$(SHELL) from the environment, even when @code{make -e} is used
+(otherwise, think about what would happen to your rules if
+@code{SHELL=/bin/tcsh}).
+
+However not all @command{make} implementations have this exception.
+For instance it's not surprising that Tru64 @command{make} doesn't
+protect @code{SHELL}, since it doesn't use it.

+
+Support for parallel execution in @command{make} implementation varies.
+Generally, using GNU make is your best bet.
+
+When NetBSD or FreeBSD @command{make} are run in parallel mode, they will
+reuse the same shell for multiple commands within one recipe.  This can
+have various unexpected consequences.  For example, changes of directories
+or variables persist between recipes, so that:
+
+@example
+all:
+        @@var=value; cd /; pwd; echo $$var; echo $$$$
+        @@pwd; echo $$var; echo $$$$
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+may output the following with @code{make -j1}, at least on NetBSD up to
+5.1 and FreeBSD up to 8.2:
+
+@example
+/
+value
+32235
+/
+value
+32235
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+while without @option{-j1}, or with @option{-B}, the output looks less
+surprising:
+
+@example
+/
+value
+32238
+/tmp
+
+32239
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Another consequence is that, if one command in a recipe uses @code{exit 0}
+to indicate a successful exit, the shell will be gone and the remaining
+commands of this recipe will not be executed.
+
+The BSD @command{make} implementations, when run in parallel mode,
+will also pass the @command{Makefile} recipes to the shell through
+its standard input, thus making it unusable from the recipes:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+read:
+        @@read line; echo LINE: $$line
+@c $$ @c restore font-lock
+$ @kbd{echo foo | make read}
+LINE: foo
+$ @kbd{echo foo | make -j1 read} # NetBSD 5.1 and FreeBSD 8.2
+LINE:
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Moreover, when FreeBSD @command{make} (up at least to 8.2) is run in
+parallel mode, it implements the @code{@@} and @code{-} ``recipe
+modifiers'' by dynamically modifying the active shell flags.  This
+behavior has the effects of potentially clobbering the exit status
+of recipes silenced with the @code{@@} modifier if they also unset
+the @option{errexit} shell flag, and of mangling the output in
+unexpected ways:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+a:
+        @@echo $$-; set +e; false
+b:
+        -echo $$-; false; echo set -
+$ @kbd{make a; echo status: $?}

+ehB
+status: 0
+$ @kbd{make b}
+echo $-; echo set -
+hBc
+set -
+$ @kbd{make -j1 b}
+echo $-; echo hvB
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+You can avoid all these issues by using the @option{-B} option to enable
+compatibility semantics.  However, that will effectively also disable
+all parallelism as that will cause prerequisites to be updated in the
+order they are listed in a rule.
+
+Some make implementations (among them, FreeBSD @command{make}, NetBSD
+@command{make}, and Solaris @command{dmake}), when invoked with a
+@option{-j@var{N}} option, connect the standard output and standard
+error of all their child processes to pipes or temporary regular
+files.  This can lead to subtly different semantics in the behavior
+of the spawned processes.  For example, even if the @command{make}
+standard output is connected to a tty, the recipe command will not be:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+all:
+        @@test -t 1 && echo "Is a tty" || echo "Is not a tty"
+$ @kbd{make -j 2} # FreeBSD 8.2 make

+--- all ---
+Is not a tty
+$ @kbd{dmake -j 2} # Solaris 10 dmake
+@var{hostname} --> 1 job
+@var{hostname} --> Job output
+Is not a tty
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+On the other hand:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{make -j 2} # GNU make, Heirloom make
+Is a tty
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The above examples also show additional status output produced in parallel
+mode for targets being updated by Solaris @command{dmake} and NetBSD
+@command{make} (but @emph{not} by FreeBSD @command{make}).
+
+Furthermore, parallel runs of those @command{make} implementations will
+route standard error from commands that they spawn into their own
+standard output, and may remove leading whitespace from output lines.

+Never put comments in a rule.
+
+Some @command{make} treat anything starting with a tab as a command for
+the current rule, even if the tab is immediately followed by a @code{#}.
+The @command{make} from Tru64 Unix V5.1 is one of them.  The following
+makefile runs @code{# foo} through the shell.
+
+@example
+all:
+        # foo
+@end example
+
+As a workaround, you can use the @command{:} no-op command with a string
+argument that gets ignored:
+
+@example
+all:
+        : "foo"
+@end example
+
+Conversely, if you want to use the @samp{#} character in some command,
+you can only do so by expanding it inside a rule (@pxref{Comments in
+Make Macros}).  So for example, if @samp{COMMENT_CHAR} is substituted by
+@command{config.status} as @samp{#}, then the following substitutes
+@samp{@@COMMENT_CHAR@@} in a generated header:
+
+@example
+foo.h: foo.h.in

+
+In shell scripts, newlines can be used inside string literals.  But in
+the shell statements of @file{Makefile} rules, this is not possible:
+A newline not preceded by a backslash is a separator between shell
+statements.  Whereas a newline that is preceded by a backslash becomes
+part of the shell statement according to POSIX, but gets replaced,
+together with the backslash that precedes it, by a space in GNU
+@command{make} 3.80 and older.  So, how can a newline be used in a string
+literal?
+
+The trick is to set up a shell variable that contains a newline:
+
+@example
+nlinit=`echo 'nl="'; echo '"'`; eval "$$nlinit"
+@end example
+
+For example, in order to create a multiline @samp{sed} expression that

+
+@example
+CPPFLAGS = "-DCOMMENT_CHAR='#'"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+as @samp{CPPFLAGS} may be expanded to @samp{"-DCOMMENT_CHAR='}.
+
+Most @command{make} implementations disregard this and treat single and

+@subsection Automatic Rule Rewriting
+@cindex @code{VPATH} and automatic rule rewriting
+@cindex automatic rule rewriting and @code{VPATH}
+
+Some @command{make} implementations, such as Solaris and Tru64,
+search for prerequisites in @code{VPATH} and
+then rewrite each occurrence as a plain word in the rule.
+For instance:
+
+@example
+# This isn't portable to GNU make.
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+f.c: if.c
+        cp if.c f.c
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+executes @code{cp ../pkg/src/if.c f.c} if @file{if.c} is
+found in @file{../pkg/src}.
+
+However, this rule leads to real problems in practice.  For example, if
+the source directory contains an ordinary file named @file{test} that is
+used in a dependency, Solaris @command{make} rewrites commands like
+@samp{if test -r foo; @dots{}} to @samp{if ../pkg/src/test -r foo;
+@dots{}}, which is typically undesirable.  In fact, @command{make} is
+completely unaware of shell syntax used in the rules, so the VPATH
+rewrite can potentially apply to @emph{any} whitespace-separated word
+in a rule, including shell variables, functions, and keywords.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{mkdir build}
+$ @kbd{cd build}
+$ @kbd{cat > Makefile <<'END'}
+VPATH = ..
+all: arg func for echo
+        func () @{ for arg in "$$@@"; do echo $$arg; done; @}; \
+        func "hello world"
+END
+$ @kbd{touch ../arg ../func ../for ../echo}
+$ @kbd{make}
+../func () @{ ../for ../arg in "$@@"; do ../echo $arg; done; @}; \
+../func "hello world"
+sh: syntax error at line 1: `do' unexpected
+*** Error code 2
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+To avoid this problem, portable makefiles should never mention a source
+file or dependency whose name is that of a shell keyword like @file{for}
+or @file{until}, a shell command like @command{cat} or @command{gcc} or
+@command{test}, or a shell function or variable used in the corresponding
+@command{Makefile} recipe.
+
+Because of these problems GNU @command{make} and many other @command{make}
+implementations do not rewrite commands, so portable makefiles should
+search @code{VPATH} manually.  It is tempting to write this:
+
+@smallexample
+# This isn't portable to Solaris make.
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+f.c: if.c
+        cp `test -f if.c || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c f.c
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+However, the ``prerequisite rewriting'' still applies here.  So if
+@file{if.c} is in @file{../pkg/src}, Solaris and Tru64 @command{make}
+execute
+
+@smallexample
+cp `test -f ../pkg/src/if.c || echo ../pkg/src/`if.c f.c
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+which reduces to
+
+@example
+cp if.c f.c
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and thus fails.  Oops.
+
+A simple workaround, and good practice anyway, is to use @samp{$?} and
+@samp{$@@} when possible:
+
+@smallexample
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+f.c: if.c
+        cp $? $@@
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+but this does not generalize well to commands with multiple
+prerequisites.  A more general workaround is to rewrite the rule so that
+the prerequisite @file{if.c} never appears as a plain word.  For
+example, these three rules would be safe, assuming @file{if.c} is in
+@file{../pkg/src} and the other files are in the working directory:
+
+@smallexample
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+f.c: if.c f1.c
+        cat `test -f ./if.c || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c f1.c >$@@
+g.c: if.c g1.c
+        cat `test -f 'if.c' || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c g1.c >$@@
+h.c: if.c h1.c
+        cat `test -f "if.c" || echo $(VPATH)/`if.c h1.c >$@@
+@end smallexample
+
+Things get worse when your prerequisites are in a macro.
+
+@example
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+HEADERS = f.h g.h h.h
+install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+        for i in $(HEADERS); do \
+          $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+            `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+        done
+@end example
+
+The above @code{install-HEADERS} rule is not Solaris-proof because @code{for
+i in $(HEADERS);} is expanded to @code{for i in f.h g.h h.h;}
+where @code{f.h} and @code{g.h} are plain words and are hence
+subject to @code{VPATH} adjustments.
+
+If the three files are in @file{../pkg/src}, the rule is run as:
+
+@example
+for i in ../pkg/src/f.h ../pkg/src/g.h h.h; do \
+  install -m 644 \
+     `test -f $i || echo ../pkg/src/`$i \
+     /usr/local/include/$i; \
+done
+@end example
+
+where the two first @command{install} calls fail.  For instance,
+consider the @code{f.h} installation:
+
+@example
+install -m 644 \
+  `test -f ../pkg/src/f.h || \
+    echo ../pkg/src/ \
+  `../pkg/src/f.h \
+  /usr/local/include/../pkg/src/f.h;
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+It reduces to:
+
+@example
+install -m 644 \
+  ../pkg/src/f.h \
+  /usr/local/include/../pkg/src/f.h;
+@end example
+
+Note that the manual @code{VPATH} search did not cause any problems here;
+however this command installs @file{f.h} in an incorrect directory.
+
+Trying to quote @code{$(HEADERS)} in some way, as we did for
+@code{foo.c} a few makefiles ago, does not help:
+
+@example
+install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+        headers='$(HEADERS)'; \
+        for i in $$headers; do \
+          $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+            `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+        done
+@end example
+
+Now, @code{headers='$(HEADERS)'} macro-expands to:
+
+@example
+headers='f.h g.h h.h'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but @code{g.h} is still a plain word.  (As an aside, the idiom
+@code{headers='$(HEADERS)'; for i in $$headers;} is a good
+idea if @code{$(HEADERS)} can be empty, because some shells diagnose a
+syntax error on @code{for i in;}.)
+
+One workaround is to strip this unwanted @file{../pkg/src/} prefix manually:
+
+@example
+VPATH = ../pkg/src
+HEADERS = f.h g.h h.h
+install-HEADERS: $(HEADERS)
+        headers='$(HEADERS)'; \
+        for i in $$headers; do \
+          i=`expr "$$i" : '$(VPATH)/\(.*\)'`;
+          $(INSTALL) -m 644 \
+            `test -f $$i || echo $(VPATH)/`$$i \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/$$i; \
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+        done
+@end example
+
+Automake does something similar.  However the above hack works only if
+the files listed in @code{HEADERS} are in the current directory or a
+subdirectory; they should not be in an enclosing directory.  If we had
+@code{HEADERS = ../f.h}, the above fragment would fail in a VPATH
+build with Tru64 @command{make}.  The reason is that not only does
+Tru64 @command{make} rewrite dependencies, but it also simplifies
+them.  Hence @code{../f.h} becomes @code{../pkg/f.h} instead of
+@code{../pkg/src/../f.h}.  This obviously defeats any attempt to strip
+a leading @file{../pkg/src/} component.
+
+The following example makes the behavior of Tru64 @command{make}
+more apparent.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+VPATH = sub
+all: ../foo
+        echo ../foo
+$ @kbd{ls}
+Makefile foo
+$ @kbd{make}

+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Dependency @file{../foo} was found in @file{sub/../foo}, but Tru64
+@command{make} simplified it as @file{foo}.  (Note that the @file{sub/}
+directory does not even exist, this just means that the simplification
+occurred before the file was checked for.)
+
+For the record here is how SunOS 4 @command{make} behaves on this
+example.

+search as presented before.
+
+@example
+VPATH = ..
+all : foo/bar
+        command `test -d foo/bar || echo ../`foo/bar

+@node Make Target Lookup
+@subsection Make Target Lookup
+@cindex @code{VPATH}, resolving target pathnames
+
+GNU @command{make} uses a complex algorithm to decide when it
+should use files found via a @code{VPATH} search.  @xref{Search
+Algorithm, , How Directory Searches are Performed, make, The GNU Make
+Manual}.
+
+If a target needs to be rebuilt, GNU @command{make} discards the
+file name found during the @code{VPATH} search for this target, and
+builds the file locally using the file name given in the makefile.
+If a target does not need to be rebuilt, GNU @command{make} uses the
+file name found during the @code{VPATH} search.
+
+Other @command{make} implementations, like NetBSD @command{make}, are
+easier to describe: the file name found during the @code{VPATH} search
+is used whether the target needs to be rebuilt or not.  Therefore
+new files are created locally, but existing files are updated at their
+@code{VPATH} location.
+
+OpenBSD and FreeBSD @command{make}, however,
+never perform a
+@code{VPATH} search for a dependency that has an explicit rule.
+This is extremely annoying.
+
+When attempting a @code{VPATH} build for an autoconfiscated package
+(e.g., @code{mkdir build && cd build && ../configure}), this means
+GNU
+@command{make} builds everything locally in the @file{build}
+directory, while BSD @command{make} builds new files locally and
+updates existing files in the source directory.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+VPATH = ..
+all: foo.x bar.x
+foo.x bar.x: newer.x
+        @@echo Building $@@

+
+Note how NetBSD @command{make} updates @file{../bar.x} in its
+VPATH location, and how FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Tru64
+@command{make} always
+update @file{bar.x}, even when @file{../bar.x} is up to date.
+
+Another point worth mentioning is that once GNU @command{make} has
+decided to ignore a @code{VPATH} file name (e.g., it ignored
+@file{../bar.x} in the above example) it continues to ignore it when
+the target occurs as a prerequisite of another rule.
+
+The following example shows that GNU @command{make} does not look up
+@file{bar.x} in @code{VPATH} before performing the @code{.x.y} rule,
+because it ignored the @code{VPATH} result of @file{bar.x} while running
+the @code{bar.x: newer.x} rule.
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat Makefile}
+VPATH = ..
+all: bar.y

+*** Exit 1
+@end example
+
+Note that if you drop away the command from the @code{bar.x: newer.x}
+rule, GNU @command{make} magically starts to work: it
+knows that @code{bar.x} hasn't been updated, therefore it doesn't
+discard the result from @code{VPATH} (@file{../bar.x}) in succeeding
+uses.  Tru64 also works, but FreeBSD and OpenBSD
+still don't.

+*** Error code 1

+@end example
+
+It seems the sole solution that would please every @command{make}
+implementation is to never rely on @code{VPATH} searches for targets.
+In other words, @code{VPATH} should be reserved to unbuilt sources.

+@dfn{Separated dependencies} simply refers to listing the prerequisite

+@node Timestamps and Make
+@section Timestamp Resolution and Make
+@cindex timestamp resolution
+Traditionally, file timestamps had 1-second resolution, and
+@command{make} used those timestamps to determine whether one file was
+newer than the other.  However, many modern file systems have
+timestamps with 1-nanosecond resolution.  Some @command{make}
+implementations look at the entire timestamp; others ignore the
+fractional part, which can lead to incorrect results.  Normally this
+is not a problem, but in some extreme cases you may need to use tricks
+like @samp{sleep 1} to work around timestamp truncation bugs.
+
+Commands like @samp{cp -p} and @samp{touch -r} typically do not copy
+file timestamps to their full resolutions (@pxref{touch, , Limitations of Usual
+Tools}).  Hence you should be wary of rules like this:
+
+@example
+dest: src
+        cp -p src dest
+@end example
+
+as @file{dest} often appears to be older than @file{src} after the
+timestamp is truncated, and this can cause @command{make} to do
+needless rework the next time it is invoked.  To work around this
+problem, you can use a timestamp file, e.g.:
+
+@example
+dest-stamp: src
+        cp -p src dest
+        date >dest-stamp
+@end example
+
+Apart from timestamp resolution, there are also differences in handling
+equal timestamps.  HP-UX @command{make} updates targets if it has the
+same time stamp as one of its prerequisites, in violation of Posix rules.
+
+This can cause spurious rebuilds for repeated runs of @command{make}.
+This in turn can cause @command{make} to fail if it tries to rebuild
+generated files in a possibly read-only source tree with tools not
+present on the end-user machine.  Use GNU @command{make} instead.

+
+Autoconf tests and ordinary programs often need to test what is allowed
+on a system, and therefore they may need to deliberately exceed the
+boundaries of what the standards allow, if only to see whether an
+optional feature is present.  When you write such a program, you should
+keep in mind the difference between constraints, unspecified behavior,
+and undefined behavior.
+
+In C, a @dfn{constraint} is a rule that the compiler must enforce.  An
+example constraint is that C programs must not declare a bit-field with
+negative width.  Tests can therefore reliably assume that programs with
+negative-width bit-fields are rejected by a compiler that conforms
+to the standard.
+
+@dfn{Unspecified behavior} is valid behavior, where the standard allows
+multiple possibilities.  For example, the order of evaluation of
+function arguments is unspecified.  Some unspecified behavior is
+@dfn{implementation-defined}, i.e., documented by the implementation,
+but since Autoconf tests cannot read the documentation they cannot
+distinguish between implementation-defined and other unspecified
+behavior.  It is common for Autoconf tests to probe implementations to
+determine otherwise-unspecified behavior.
+
+@dfn{Undefined behavior} is invalid behavior, where the standard allows
+the implementation to do anything it pleases.  For example,
+dereferencing a null pointer leads to undefined behavior.  If possible,
+test programs should avoid undefined behavior, since a program with
+undefined behavior might succeed on a test that should fail.
+
+The above rules apply to programs that are intended to conform to the
+standard.  However, strictly-conforming programs are quite rare, since
+the standards are so limiting.  A major goal of Autoconf is to support
+programs that use implementation features not described by the standard,
+and it is fairly common for test programs to violate the above rules, if
+the programs work well enough in practice.

+@subsection Basics of Integer Overflow
+@cindex integer overflow
+@cindex overflow, signed integer
+@cindex signed integer overflow
+@cindex wraparound arithmetic
+
+In languages like C, unsigned integer overflow reliably wraps around;
+e.g., @code{UINT_MAX + 1} yields zero.
+This is guaranteed by the C standard and is
+portable in practice, unless you specify aggressive,
+nonstandard optimization options
+suitable only for special applications.
+
+In contrast, the C standard says that signed integer overflow leads to
+undefined behavior where a program can do anything, including dumping
+core or overrunning a buffer.  The misbehavior can even precede the
+overflow.  Such an overflow can occur during addition, subtraction,
+multiplication, division, and left shift.
+
+Despite this requirement of the standard, many C programs and Autoconf
+tests assume that signed integer overflow silently wraps around modulo a
+power of two, using two's complement arithmetic, so long as you cast the
+resulting value to a signed integer type or store it into a signed
+integer variable.  If you use conservative optimization flags, such
+programs are generally portable to the vast majority of modern
+platforms, with a few exceptions discussed later.
+
+For historical reasons the C standard also allows implementations with
+ones' complement or signed magnitude arithmetic, but it is safe to
+assume two's complement nowadays.
+
+Also, overflow can occur when converting an out-of-range value to a
+signed integer type.  Here a standard implementation must define what
+happens, but this might include raising an exception.  In practice all
+known implementations support silent wraparound in this case, so you need
+not worry about other possibilities.
+
+@node Signed Overflow Examples
+@subsection Examples of Code Assuming Wraparound Overflow
+@cindex integer overflow
+@cindex overflow, signed integer
+@cindex signed integer overflow
+@cindex wraparound arithmetic
+
+There has long been a tension between what the C standard requires for
+signed integer overflow, and what C programs commonly assume.  The
+standard allows aggressive optimizations based on assumptions that
+overflow never occurs, but many practical C programs rely on overflow
+wrapping around.  These programs do not conform to the standard, but
+they commonly work in practice because compiler writers are
+understandably reluctant to implement optimizations that would break
+many programs, unless perhaps a user specifies aggressive optimization.
+
+The C Standard says that if a program has signed integer overflow its
+behavior is undefined, and the undefined behavior can even precede the
+overflow.  To take an extreme example:
+
+@c Inspired by Robert Dewar's example in
+@c <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-01/msg00038.html> (2007-01-01).
+@example
+if (password == expected_password)
+  allow_superuser_privileges ();
+else if (counter++ == INT_MAX)
+  abort ();
+else
+  printf ("%d password mismatches\n", counter);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If the @code{int} variable @code{counter} equals @code{INT_MAX},
+@code{counter++} must overflow and the behavior is undefined, so the C
+standard allows the compiler to optimize away the test against
+@code{INT_MAX} and the @code{abort} call.
+Worse, if an earlier bug in the program lets the compiler deduce that
+@code{counter == INT_MAX} or that @code{counter} previously overflowed,
+the C standard allows the compiler to optimize away the password test
+and generate code that allows superuser privileges unconditionally.
+
+Despite this requirement by the standard, it has long been common for C
+code to assume wraparound arithmetic after signed overflow, and all
+known practical C implementations support some C idioms that assume
+wraparound signed arithmetic, even if the idioms do not conform
+strictly to the standard.  If your code looks like the following
+examples it will almost surely work with real-world compilers.
+
+Here is an example derived from the 7th Edition Unix implementation of
+@code{atoi} (1979-01-10):
+
+@example
+char *p;
+int f, n;
+@dots{}
+while (*p >= '0' && *p <= '9')
+  n = n * 10 + *p++ - '0';
+return (f ? -n : n);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Even if the input string is in range, on most modern machines this has
+signed overflow when computing the most negative integer (the @code{-n}
+overflows) or a value near an extreme integer (the first @code{+}
+overflows).
+
+Here is another example, derived from the 7th Edition implementation of
+@code{rand} (1979-01-10).  Here the programmer expects both
+multiplication and addition to wrap on overflow:
+
+@example
+static long int randx = 1;
+@dots{}
+randx = randx * 1103515245 + 12345;
+return (randx >> 16) & 077777;
+@end example
+
+In the following example, derived from the GNU C Library 2.5
+implementation of @code{mktime} (2006-09-09), the code assumes
+wraparound arithmetic in @code{+} to detect signed overflow:
+
+@example
+time_t t, t1, t2;
+int sec_requested, sec_adjustment;
+@dots{}
+t1 = t + sec_requested;
+t2 = t1 + sec_adjustment;
+if (((t1 < t) != (sec_requested < 0))
+    | ((t2 < t1) != (sec_adjustment < 0)))
+  return -1;
+@end example
+
+If your code looks like these examples, it is probably safe even though
+it does not strictly conform to the C standard.  This might lead one to
+believe that one can generally assume wraparound on overflow, but that
+is not always true, as can be seen in the next section.
+
+@node Optimization and Wraparound
+@subsection Optimizations That Break Wraparound Arithmetic
+@cindex loop induction
+
+Compilers sometimes generate code that is incompatible with wraparound
+integer arithmetic.  A simple example is an algebraic simplification: a
+compiler might translate @code{(i * 2000) / 1000} to @code{i * 2}
+because it assumes that @code{i * 2000} does not overflow.  The
+translation is not equivalent to the original when overflow occurs:
+e.g., in the typical case of 32-bit signed two's complement wraparound
+@code{int}, if @code{i} has type @code{int} and value @code{1073742},
+the original expression returns @minus{}2147483 but the optimized
+version returns the mathematically correct value 2147484.
+
+More subtly, loop induction optimizations often exploit the undefined
+behavior of signed overflow.  Consider the following contrived function
+@code{sumc}:
+
+@example
+int
+sumc (int lo, int hi)
+@{
+  int sum = 0;
+  int i;
+  for (i = lo; i <= hi; i++)
+    sum ^= i * 53;
+  return sum;
+@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+To avoid multiplying by 53 each time through the loop, an optimizing
+compiler might internally transform @code{sumc} to the equivalent of the
+following:
+
+@example
+int
+transformed_sumc (int lo, int hi)
+@{
+  int sum = 0;
+  int hic = hi * 53;
+  int ic;
+  for (ic = lo * 53; ic <= hic; ic += 53)
+    sum ^= ic;
+  return sum;
+@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This transformation is allowed by the C standard, but it is invalid for
+wraparound arithmetic when @code{INT_MAX / 53 < hi}, because then the
+overflow in computing expressions like @code{hi * 53} can cause the
+expression @code{i <= hi} to yield a different value from the
+transformed expression @code{ic <= hic}.
+
+For this reason, compilers that use loop induction and similar
+techniques often do not support reliable wraparound arithmetic when a
+loop induction variable like @code{ic} is involved.  Since loop
+induction variables are generated by the compiler, and are not visible
+in the source code, it is not always trivial to say whether the problem
+affects your code.
+
+Hardly any code actually depends on wraparound arithmetic in cases like
+these, so in practice these loop induction optimizations are almost
+always useful.  However, edge cases in this area can cause problems.
+For example:
+
+@example
+int j;
+for (j = 1; 0 < j; j *= 2)
+  test (j);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Here, the loop attempts to iterate through all powers of 2 that
+@code{int} can represent, but the C standard allows a compiler to
+optimize away the comparison and generate an infinite loop,
+under the argument that behavior is undefined on overflow.  As of this
+writing this optimization is not done by any production version of
+GCC with @option{-O2}, but it might be performed by other
+compilers, or by more aggressive GCC optimization options,
+and the GCC developers have not decided whether it will
+continue to work with GCC and @option{-O2}.
+
+@node Signed Overflow Advice
+@subsection Practical Advice for Signed Overflow Issues
+@cindex integer overflow
+@cindex overflow, signed integer
+@cindex signed integer overflow
+@cindex wraparound arithmetic
+
+Ideally the safest approach is to avoid signed integer overflow
+entirely.  For example, instead of multiplying two signed integers, you
+can convert them to unsigned integers, multiply the unsigned values,
+then test whether the result is in signed range.
+
+Rewriting code in this way will be inconvenient, though, particularly if
+the signed values might be negative.  Also, it may hurt
+performance.  Using unsigned arithmetic to check for overflow is
+particularly painful to do portably and efficiently when dealing with an
+integer type like @code{uid_t} whose width and signedness vary from
+platform to platform.
+
+Furthermore, many C applications pervasively assume wraparound behavior
+and typically it is not easy to find and remove all these assumptions.
+Hence it is often useful to maintain nonstandard code that assumes
+wraparound on overflow, instead of rewriting the code.  The rest of this
+section attempts to give practical advice for this situation.
+
+If your code wants to detect signed integer overflow in @code{sum = a +
+b}, it is generally safe to use an expression like @code{(sum < a) != (b
+< 0)}.
+
+If your code uses a signed loop index, make sure that the index cannot
+overflow, along with all signed expressions derived from the index.
+Here is a contrived example of problematic code with two instances of
+overflow.
+
+@example
+for (i = INT_MAX - 10; i <= INT_MAX; i++)
+  if (i + 1 < 0)
+    @{
+      report_overflow ();
+      break;
+    @}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Because of the two overflows, a compiler might optimize away or
+transform the two comparisons in a way that is incompatible with the
+wraparound assumption.
+
+If your code uses an expression like @code{(i * 2000) / 1000} and you
+actually want the multiplication to wrap around on overflow, use
+unsigned arithmetic
+to do it, e.g., @code{((int) (i * 2000u)) / 1000}.
+
+If your code assumes wraparound behavior and you want to insulate it
+against any GCC optimizations that would fail to support that
+behavior, you should use GCC's @option{-fwrapv} option, which
+causes signed overflow to wrap around reliably (except for division and
+remainder, as discussed in the next section).
+
+If you need to port to platforms where signed integer overflow does not
+reliably wrap around (e.g., due to hardware overflow checking, or to
+highly aggressive optimizations), you should consider debugging with
+GCC's @option{-ftrapv} option, which causes signed overflow to
+raise an exception.
+
+@node Signed Integer Division
+@subsection Signed Integer Division and Integer Overflow
+@cindex division, integer
+
+Overflow in signed
+integer division is not always harmless: for example, on CPUs of the
+i386 family, dividing @code{INT_MIN} by @code{-1} yields a SIGFPE signal
+which by default terminates the program.  Worse, taking the remainder
+of these two values typically yields the same signal on these CPUs,
+even though the C standard requires @code{INT_MIN % -1} to yield zero
+because the expression does not overflow.
+
+@node Preprocessor Arithmetic
+@section Preprocessor Arithmetic
+@cindex preprocessor arithmetic
+
+In C99, preprocessor arithmetic, used for @code{#if} expressions, must
+be evaluated as if all signed values are of type @code{intmax_t} and all
+unsigned values of type @code{uintmax_t}.  Many compilers are buggy in
+this area, though.  For example, as of 2007, Sun C mishandles @code{#if
+LLONG_MIN < 0} on a platform with 32-bit @code{long int} and 64-bit
+@code{long long int}.  Also, some older preprocessors mishandle
+constants ending in @code{LL}.  To work around these problems, you can
+compute the value of expressions like @code{LONG_MAX < LLONG_MAX} at
+@code{configure}-time rather than at @code{#if}-time.
+
+@node Null Pointers
+@section Properties of Null Pointers
+@cindex null pointers
+
+Most modern hosts reliably fail when you attempt to dereference a null
+pointer.
+
+On almost all modern hosts, null pointers use an all-bits-zero internal
+representation, so you can reliably use @code{memset} with 0 to set all
+the pointers in an array to null values.
+
+If @code{p} is a null pointer to an object type, the C expression
+@code{p + 0} always evaluates to @code{p} on modern hosts, even though
+the standard says that it has undefined behavior.
+
+@node Buffer Overruns
+@section Buffer Overruns and Subscript Errors
+@cindex buffer overruns
+
+Buffer overruns and subscript errors are the most common dangerous
+errors in C programs.  They result in undefined behavior because storing
+outside an array typically modifies storage that is used by some other
+object, and most modern systems lack runtime checks to catch these
+errors.  Programs should not rely on buffer overruns being caught.
+
+There is one exception to the usual rule that a portable program cannot
+address outside an array.  In C, it is valid to compute the address just
+past an object, e.g., @code{&a[N]} where @code{a} has @code{N} elements,
+so long as you do not dereference the resulting pointer.  But it is not
+valid to compute the address just before an object, e.g., @code{&a[-1]};
+nor is it valid to compute two past the end, e.g., @code{&a[N+1]}.  On
+most platforms @code{&a[-1] < &a[0] && &a[N] < &a[N+1]}, but this is not
+reliable in general, and it is usually easy enough to avoid the
+potential portability problem, e.g., by allocating an extra unused array
+element at the start or end.
+
+@uref{http://@/valgrind.org/, Valgrind} can catch many overruns.
+GCC
+users might also consider using the @option{-fmudflap} option to catch
+overruns.
+
+Buffer overruns are usually caused by off-by-one errors, but there are
+more subtle ways to get them.
+
+Using @code{int} values to index into an array or compute array sizes
+causes problems on typical 64-bit hosts where an array index might
+be @math{2^{31}} or larger.  Index values of type @code{size_t} avoid this
+problem, but cannot be negative.  Index values of type @code{ptrdiff_t}
+are signed, and are wide enough in practice.
+
+If you add or multiply two numbers to calculate an array size, e.g.,
+@code{malloc (x * sizeof y + z)}, havoc ensues if the addition or
+multiplication overflows.
+
+Many implementations of the @code{alloca} function silently misbehave
+and can generate buffer overflows if given sizes that are too large.
+The size limits are implementation dependent, but are at least 4000
+bytes on all platforms that we know about.
+
+The standard functions @code{asctime}, @code{asctime_r}, @code{ctime},
+@code{ctime_r}, and @code{gets} are prone to buffer overflows, and
+portable code should not use them unless the inputs are known to be
+within certain limits.  The time-related functions can overflow their
+buffers if given timestamps out of range (e.g., a year less than -999
+or greater than 9999).  Time-related buffer overflows cannot happen with
+recent-enough versions of the GNU C library, but are possible
+with other
+implementations.  The @code{gets} function is the worst, since it almost
+invariably overflows its buffer when presented with an input line larger
+than the buffer.
+
+@node Volatile Objects
+@section Volatile Objects
+@cindex volatile objects
+
+The keyword @code{volatile} is often misunderstood in portable code.
+Its use inhibits some memory-access optimizations, but programmers often
+wish that it had a different meaning than it actually does.
+
+@code{volatile} was designed for code that accesses special objects like
+memory-mapped device registers whose contents spontaneously change.
+Such code is inherently low-level, and it is difficult to specify
+portably what @code{volatile} means in these cases.  The C standard
+says, ``What constitutes an access to an object that has
+volatile-qualified type is implementation-defined,'' so in theory each
+implementation is supposed to fill in the gap by documenting what
+@code{volatile} means for that implementation.  In practice, though,
+this documentation is usually absent or incomplete.
+
+One area of confusion is the distinction between objects defined with
+volatile types, and volatile lvalues.  From the C standard's point of
+view, an object defined with a volatile type has externally visible
+behavior.  You can think of such objects as having little oscilloscope
+probes attached to them, so that the user can observe some properties of
+accesses to them, just as the user can observe data written to output
+files.  However, the standard does not make it clear whether users can
+observe accesses by volatile lvalues to ordinary objects.  For example:
+
+@example
+/* Declare and access a volatile object.
+   Accesses to X are "visible" to users.  */
+static int volatile x;
+x = 1;
+
+/* Access two ordinary objects via a volatile lvalue.
+   It's not clear whether accesses to *P are "visible".  */
+int y;
+int *z = malloc (sizeof (int));
+int volatile *p;
+p = &y;
+*p = 1;
+p = z;
+*p = 1;
+@end example
+
+Programmers often wish that @code{volatile} meant ``Perform the memory
+access here and now, without merging several memory accesses, without
+changing the memory word size, and without reordering.''  But the C
+standard does not require this.  For objects defined with a volatile
+type, accesses must be done before the next sequence point; but
+otherwise merging, reordering, and word-size change is allowed.  Worse,
+it is not clear from the standard whether volatile lvalues provide more
+guarantees in general than nonvolatile lvalues, if the underlying
+objects are ordinary.
+
+Even when accessing objects defined with a volatile type,
+the C standard allows only
+extremely limited signal handlers: the behavior is undefined if a signal
+handler reads any nonlocal object, or writes to any nonlocal object
+whose type is not @code{sig_atomic_t volatile}, or calls any standard
+library function other than @code{abort}, @code{signal}, and (if C99)
+@code{_Exit}.  Hence C compilers need not worry about a signal handler
+disturbing ordinary computation, unless the computation accesses a
+@code{sig_atomic_t volatile} lvalue that is not a local variable.
+(There is an obscure exception for accesses via a pointer to a volatile
+character, since it may point into part of a @code{sig_atomic_t
+volatile} object.)  Posix
+adds to the list of library functions callable from a portable signal
+handler, but otherwise is like the C standard in this area.
+
+Some C implementations allow memory-access optimizations within each
+translation unit, such that actual behavior agrees with the behavior
+required by the standard only when calling a function in some other
+translation unit, and a signal handler acts like it was called from a
+different translation unit.  The C standard hints that in these
+implementations, objects referred to by signal handlers ``would require
+explicit specification of @code{volatile} storage, as well as other
+implementation-defined restrictions.''  But unfortunately even for this
+special case these other restrictions are often not documented well.
+@xref{Volatiles, , When is a Volatile Object Accessed?, gcc, Using the
+GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)}, for some
+restrictions imposed by GCC.  @xref{Defining Handlers, ,
+Defining Signal Handlers, libc, The GNU C Library}, for some
+restrictions imposed by the GNU C library.  Restrictions
+differ on other platforms.
+
+If possible, it is best to use a signal handler that fits within the
+limits imposed by the C and Posix standards.
+
+If this is not practical, you can try the following rules of thumb.  A
+signal handler should access only volatile lvalues, preferably lvalues
+that refer to objects defined with a volatile type, and should not
+assume that the accessed objects have an internally consistent state
+if they are larger than a machine word.  Furthermore, installers
+should employ compilers and compiler options that are commonly used
+for building operating system kernels, because kernels often need more
+from @code{volatile} than the C Standard requires, and installers who
+compile an application in a similar environment can sometimes benefit
+from the extra constraints imposed by kernels on compilers.
+Admittedly we are handwaving somewhat here, as there are few
+guarantees in this area; the rules of thumb may help to fix some bugs
+but there is a good chance that they will not fix them all.
+
+For @code{volatile}, C++ has the same problems that C does.
+Multithreaded applications have even more problems with @code{volatile},
+but they are beyond the scope of this section.
+
+The bottom line is that using @code{volatile} typically hurts
+performance but should not hurt correctness.  In some cases its use
+does help correctness, but these cases are often so poorly understood
+that all too often adding @code{volatile} to a data structure merely
+alleviates some symptoms of a bug while not fixing the bug in general.

+@node Floating Point Portability
+@section Floating Point Portability
+@cindex floating point
+
+Almost all modern systems use IEEE-754 floating point, and it is safe to
+assume IEEE-754 in most portable code these days.  For more information,
+please see David Goldberg's classic paper

+
+@node Exiting Portably
+@section Exiting Portably
+@cindex exiting portably
+
+A C or C++ program can exit with status @var{N} by returning
+@var{N} from the @code{main} function.  Portable programs are supposed
+to exit either with status 0 or @code{EXIT_SUCCESS} to succeed, or with
+status @code{EXIT_FAILURE} to fail, but in practice it is portable to
+fail by exiting with status 1, and test programs that assume Posix can
+fail by exiting with status values from 1 through 255.  Programs on
+SunOS 2.0 (1985) through 3.5.2 (1988) incorrectly exited with zero
+status when @code{main} returned nonzero, but ancient systems like these
+are no longer of practical concern.
+
+A program can also exit with status @var{N} by passing @var{N} to the
+@code{exit} function, and a program can fail by calling the @code{abort}
+function.  If a program is specialized to just some platforms, it can fail
+by calling functions specific to those platforms, e.g., @code{_exit}
+(Posix) and @code{_Exit} (C99).  However, like other functions, an exit
+function should be declared, typically by including a header.  For
+example, if a C program calls @code{exit}, it should include @file{stdlib.h}
+either directly or via the default includes (@pxref{Default Includes}).
+
+A program can fail due to undefined behavior such as dereferencing a null
+pointer, but this is not recommended as undefined behavior allows an
+implementation to do whatever it pleases and this includes exiting
+successfully.

+@c This node used to be named Specifying Names.  The @anchor allows old
+@c links to still work.
+@anchor{Specifying Names}
+
+Autoconf-generated
+@command{configure} scripts can make decisions based on a canonical name
+for the system type, or @dfn{target triplet}, which has the form:
+@samp{@var{cpu}-@var{vendor}-@var{os}}, where @var{os} can be
+@samp{@var{system}} or @samp{@var{kernel}-@var{system}}
+
+@command{configure} can usually guess the canonical name for the type of
+system it's running on.  To do so it runs a script called
+@command{config.guess}, which infers the name using the @code{uname}
+command or symbols predefined by the C preprocessor.
+
+Alternately, the user can specify the system type with command line
+arguments to @command{configure} (@pxref{System Type}.  Doing so is
+necessary when
+cross-compiling.  In the most complex case of cross-compiling, three
+system types are involved.  The options to specify them are:
+
+@table @option
+@item --build=@var{build-type}
+the type of system on which the package is being configured and
+compiled.  It defaults to the result of running @command{config.guess}.
+Specifying a @var{build-type} that differs from @var{host-type} enables
+cross-compilation mode.
+
+@item --host=@var{host-type}
+the type of system on which the package runs.  By default it is the
+same as the build machine.  Specifying a @var{host-type} that differs
+from @var{build-type}, when @var{build-type} was also explicitly
+specified, enables cross-compilation mode.
+
+@item --target=@var{target-type}
+the type of system for which any compiler tools in the package
+produce code (rarely needed).  By default, it is the same as host.
+@end table
+
+If you mean to override the result of @command{config.guess}, use
+@option{--build}, not @option{--host}, since the latter enables
+cross-compilation.  For historical reasons,
+whenever you specify @option{--host},
+be sure to specify @option{--build} too; this will be fixed in the
+future.  So, to enter cross-compilation mode, use a command like this
+
+@example
+./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=m68k-coff
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Note that if you do not specify @option{--host}, @command{configure}
+fails if it can't run the code generated by the specified compiler.  For
+example, configuring as follows fails:
+
+@example
+./configure CC=m68k-coff-gcc
+@end example
+
+When cross-compiling, @command{configure} will warn about any tools
+(compilers, linkers, assemblers) whose name is not prefixed with the
+host type.  This is an aid to users performing cross-compilation.
+Continuing the example above, if a cross-compiler named @command{cc} is
+used with a native @command{pkg-config}, then libraries found by
+@command{pkg-config} will likely cause subtle build failures; but using
+the names @command{m68k-coff-cc} and @command{m68k-coff-pkg-config}
+avoids any confusion.  Avoiding the warning is as simple as creating the
+correct symlinks naming the cross tools.
+
+@cindex @command{config.sub}
+@command{configure} recognizes short aliases for many system types; for
+example, @samp{decstation} can be used instead of
+@samp{mips-dec-ultrix4.2}.  @command{configure} runs a script called
+@command{config.sub} to canonicalize system type aliases.
+

+
+@node Using System Type
+@section Using the System Type
+
+In @file{configure.ac} the system type is generally used by one or more
+@code{case} statements to select system-specifics.  Shell wildcards can
+be used to match a group of system types.
+
+For example, an extra assembler code object file could be chosen, giving
+access to a CPU cycle counter register.  @code{$(CYCLE_OBJ)} in the
+following would be used in a makefile to add the object to a
+program or library.
+
+@example
+AS_CASE([$host],
+  [alpha*-*-*], [CYCLE_OBJ=rpcc.o],
+  [i?86-*-*],   [CYCLE_OBJ=rdtsc.o],
+  [CYCLE_OBJ=""]
+)
+AC_SUBST([CYCLE_OBJ])
+@end example
+
+@code{AC_CONFIG_LINKS} (@pxref{Configuration Links}) is another good way
+to select variant source files, for example optimized code for some
+CPUs.  The configured CPU type doesn't always indicate exact CPU types,
+so some runtime capability checks may be necessary too.
+
+@example
+case $host in
+  alpha*-*-*)   AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:alpha/dither.c]) ;;
+  powerpc*-*-*) AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:powerpc/dither.c]) ;;
+  *-*-*)        AC_CONFIG_LINKS([dither.c:generic/dither.c]) ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+The host system type can also be used to find cross-compilation tools
+with @code{AC_CHECK_TOOL} (@pxref{Generic Programs}).
+
+The above examples all show @samp{$host}, since this is where the code
+is going to run.  Only rarely is it necessary to test @samp{$build}
+(which is where the build is being done).
+
+Whenever you're tempted to use @samp{$host} it's worth considering
+whether some sort of probe would be better.  New system types come along
+periodically or previously missing features are added.  Well-written
+probes can adapt themselves to such things, but hard-coded lists of
+names can't.  Here are some guidelines,
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Availability of libraries and library functions should always be checked
+by probing.
+@item
+Variant behavior of system calls is best identified with runtime tests
+if possible, but bug workarounds or obscure difficulties might have to
+be driven from @samp{$host}.
+@item
+Assembler code is inevitably highly CPU-specific and is best selected
+according to @samp{$host_cpu}.
+@item
+Assembler variations like underscore prefix on globals or ELF versus
+COFF type directives are however best determined by probing, perhaps
+even examining the compiler output.
+@end itemize
+
+@samp{$target} is for use by a package creating a compiler or similar.
+For ordinary packages it's meaningless and should not be used.  It
+indicates what the created compiler should generate code for, if it can
+cross-compile.  @samp{$target} generally selects various hard-coded CPU
+and system conventions, since usually the compiler or tools under
+construction themselves determine how the target works.

+@node External Software
+@section Working With External Software
+@cindex External software
+
+Some packages require, or can optionally use, other software packages
+that are already installed.  The user can give @command{configure}
+command line options to specify which such external software to use.
+The options have one of these forms:
+
+@c FIXME: Can't use @ovar here, Texinfo 4.0 goes lunatic and emits something
+@c awful.
+@example
+--with-@var{package}@r{[}=@var{arg}@r{]}
+--without-@var{package}
+@end example
+
+For example, @option{--with-gnu-ld} means work with the GNU linker
+instead of some other linker.  @option{--with-x} means work with The X
+Window System.
+
+The user can give an argument by following the package name with
+@samp{=} and the argument.  Giving an argument of @samp{no} is for
+packages that are used by default; it says to @emph{not} use the
+package.  An argument that is neither @samp{yes} nor @samp{no} could
+include a name or number of a version of the other package, to specify
+more precisely which other package this program is supposed to work
+with.  If no argument is given, it defaults to @samp{yes}.
+@option{--without-@var{package}} is equivalent to
+@option{--with-@var{package}=no}.
+
+Normally @command{configure} scripts complain about
+@option{--with-@var{package}} options that they do not support.
+@xref{Option Checking}, for details, and for how to override the
+defaults.
+
+For each external software package that may be used, @file{configure.ac}
+should call @code{AC_ARG_WITH} to detect whether the @command{configure}
+user asked to use it.  Whether each package is used or not by default,
+and which arguments are valid, is up to you.
+
+@anchor{AC_ARG_WITH}
+@defmac AC_ARG_WITH (@var{package}, @var{help-string}, @
+  @ovar{action-if-given}, @ovar{action-if-not-given})
+@acindex{ARG_WITH}
+If the user gave @command{configure} the option @option{--with-@var{package}}
+or @option{--without-@var{package}}, run shell commands
+@var{action-if-given}.  If neither option was given, run shell commands
+@var{action-if-not-given}.  The name @var{package} indicates another
+software package that this program should work with.  It should consist
+only of alphanumeric characters, dashes, plus signs, and dots.
+
+The option's argument is available to the shell commands
+@var{action-if-given} in the shell variable @code{withval}, which is
+actually just the value of the shell variable named
+@code{with_@var{package}}, with any non-alphanumeric characters in
+@var{package} changed into @samp{_}.  You may use that variable instead,
+if you wish.
+
+The argument @var{help-string} is a description of the option that
+looks like this:
+@example
+  --with-readline         support fancy command line editing
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+@var{help-string} may be more than one line long, if more detail is
+needed.  Just make sure the columns line up in @samp{configure
+--help}.  Avoid tabs in the help string.  The easiest way to provide the
+proper leading whitespace is to format your @var{help-string} with the macro
+@code{AS_HELP_STRING} (@pxref{Pretty Help Strings}).
+
+The following example shows how to use the @code{AC_ARG_WITH} macro in
+a common situation.  You want to let the user decide whether to enable
+support for an external library (e.g., the readline library); if the user
+specified neither @option{--with-readline} nor @option{--without-readline},
+you want to enable support for readline only if the library is available

+@node Package Options
+@section Choosing Package Options
+@cindex Package options
+@cindex Options, package
+
+If a software package has optional compile-time features, the user can
+give @command{configure} command line options to specify whether to
+compile them.  The options have one of these forms:
+
+@c FIXME: Can't use @ovar here, Texinfo 4.0 goes lunatic and emits something
+@c awful.
+@example
+--enable-@var{feature}@r{[}=@var{arg}@r{]}
+--disable-@var{feature}
+@end example
+
+These options allow users to choose which optional features to build and
+install.  @option{--enable-@var{feature}} options should never make a
+feature behave differently or cause one feature to replace another.
+They should only cause parts of the program to be built rather than left
+out.
+
+The user can give an argument by following the feature name with
+@samp{=} and the argument.  Giving an argument of @samp{no} requests
+that the feature @emph{not} be made available.  A feature with an
+argument looks like @option{--enable-debug=stabs}.  If no argument is
+given, it defaults to @samp{yes}.  @option{--disable-@var{feature}} is
+equivalent to @option{--enable-@var{feature}=no}.
+
+Normally @command{configure} scripts complain about
+@option{--enable-@var{package}} options that they do not support.
+@xref{Option Checking}, for details, and for how to override the
+defaults.
+
+For each optional feature, @file{configure.ac} should call
+@code{AC_ARG_ENABLE} to detect whether the @command{configure} user asked
+to include it.  Whether each feature is included or not by default, and
+which arguments are valid, is up to you.
+
+@anchor{AC_ARG_ENABLE}
+@defmac AC_ARG_ENABLE (@var{feature}, @var{help-string}, @
+  @ovar{action-if-given}, @ovar{action-if-not-given})
+@acindex{ARG_ENABLE}
+If the user gave @command{configure} the option
+@option{--enable-@var{feature}} or @option{--disable-@var{feature}}, run
+shell commands @var{action-if-given}.  If neither option was given, run
+shell commands @var{action-if-not-given}.  The name @var{feature}
+indicates an optional user-level facility.  It should consist only of
+alphanumeric characters, dashes, plus signs, and dots.
+
+The option's argument is available to the shell commands
+@var{action-if-given} in the shell variable @code{enableval}, which is
+actually just the value of the shell variable named
+@code{enable_@var{feature}}, with any non-alphanumeric characters in
+@var{feature} changed into @samp{_}.  You may use that variable instead,
+if you wish.  The @var{help-string} argument is like that of
+@code{AC_ARG_WITH} (@pxref{External Software}).
+
+You should format your @var{help-string} with the macro
+@code{AS_HELP_STRING} (@pxref{Pretty Help Strings}).

+
+Properly formatting the @samp{help strings} which are used in
+@code{AC_ARG_WITH} (@pxref{External Software}) and @code{AC_ARG_ENABLE}
+(@pxref{Package Options}) can be challenging.  Specifically, you want
+your own @samp{help strings} to line up in the appropriate columns of
+@samp{configure --help} just like the standard Autoconf @samp{help
+strings} do.  This is the purpose of the @code{AS_HELP_STRING} macro.
+
+@anchor{AS_HELP_STRING}
+@defmac AS_HELP_STRING (@var{left-hand-side}, @var{right-hand-side} @
+  @dvar{indent-column, 26}, @dvar{wrap-column, 79})
+@asindex{HELP_STRING}
+
+Expands into a help string that looks pretty when the user executes
+@samp{configure --help}.  It is typically used in @code{AC_ARG_WITH}
+(@pxref{External Software}) or @code{AC_ARG_ENABLE} (@pxref{Package
+Options}).  The following example makes this clearer.
+
+@example
+AC_ARG_WITH([foo],
+  [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-foo],
+     [use foo (default is no)])],
+  [use_foo=$withval],
+  [use_foo=no])
+@end example
+
+Then the last few lines of @samp{configure --help} appear like
+this:
+
+@example
+--enable and --with options recognized:
+  --with-foo              use foo (default is no)
+@end example
+
+Macro expansion is performed on the first argument.  However, the second
+argument of @code{AS_HELP_STRING} is treated as a whitespace separated
+list of text to be reformatted, and is not subject to macro expansion.
+Since it is not expanded, it should not be double quoted.
+@xref{Autoconf Language}, for a more detailed explanation.
+
+The @code{AS_HELP_STRING} macro is particularly helpful when the
+@var{left-hand-side} and/or @var{right-hand-side} are composed of macro
+arguments, as shown in the following example.  Be aware that
+@var{left-hand-side} may not expand to unbalanced quotes,
+although quadrigraphs can be used.
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([MY_ARG_WITH],
+  [AC_ARG_WITH(m4_translit([[$1]], [_], [-]),
+     [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-m4_translit([$1], [_], [-])],

+     [use_[]$1=$withval],
+     [use_[]$1=$2])])
+MY_ARG_WITH([a_b], [no])
+@end example

+
+@example
+--enable and --with options recognized:
+  --with-a-b              use a_b (default is no)
+@end example
+
+The parameters @var{indent-column} and @var{wrap-column} were introduced
+in Autoconf 2.62.  Generally, they should not be specified; they exist
+for fine-tuning of the wrapping.
+@example
+AS_HELP_STRING([--option], [description of option])
+@result{}  --option                description of option
+AS_HELP_STRING([--option], [description of option], [15], [30])

+@node Option Checking
+@section Controlling Checking of @command{configure} Options
+@cindex Options, Package
+
+The @command{configure} script checks its command-line options against a
+list of known options, like @option{--help} or @option{--config-cache}.
+An unknown option ordinarily indicates a mistake by the user and
+@command{configure} halts with an error.  However, by default unknown
+@option{--with-@var{package}} and @option{--enable-@var{feature}}
+options elicit only a warning, to support configuring entire source
+trees.
+
+Source trees often contain multiple packages with a top-level
+@command{configure} script that uses the @code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS} macro
+(@pxref{Subdirectories}).  Because the packages generally support
+different @option{--with-@var{package}} and
+@option{--enable-@var{feature}} options, the GNU Coding
+Standards say they must accept unrecognized options without halting.
+Even a warning message is undesirable here, so @code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS}
+automatically disables the warnings.
+
+This default behavior may be modified in two ways.  First, the installer
+can invoke @code{configure --disable-option-checking} to disable
+these warnings, or invoke @code{configure --enable-option-checking=fatal}
+options to turn them into fatal errors, respectively.  Second, the
+maintainer can use @code{AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING}.
+
+@defmac AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING
+@acindex{DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING}
+
+By default, disable warnings related to any unrecognized
+@option{--with-@var{package}} or @option{--enable-@var{feature}}
+options.  This is implied by @code{AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS}.
+
+The installer can override this behavior by passing
+@option{--enable-option-checking} (enable warnings) or
+@option{--enable-option-checking=fatal} (enable errors) to
+@command{configure}.

+@node Site Details
+@section Configuring Site Details
+@cindex Site details
+
+Some software packages require complex site-specific information.  Some
+examples are host names to use for certain services, company names, and
+email addresses to contact.  Since some configuration scripts generated
+by Metaconfig ask for such information interactively, people sometimes
+wonder how to get that information in Autoconf-generated configuration
+scripts, which aren't interactive.
+
+Such site configuration information should be put in a file that is
+edited @emph{only by users}, not by programs.  The location of the file
+can either be based on the @code{prefix} variable, or be a standard
+location such as the user's home directory.  It could even be specified
+by an environment variable.  The programs should examine that file at
+runtime, rather than at compile time.  Runtime configuration is more
+convenient for users and makes the configuration process simpler than
+getting the information while configuring.  @xref{Directory Variables, ,

+Place in output variable @code{program_transform_name} a sequence of
+@code{sed} commands for changing the names of installed programs.
+
+If any of the options described below are given to @command{configure},
+program names are transformed accordingly.  Otherwise, if
+@code{AC_CANONICAL_TARGET} has been called and a @option{--target} value
+is given, the target type followed by a dash is used as a prefix.
+Otherwise, no program name transformation is done.

+* Transformation Options::      @command{configure} options to transform names

+
+@node Transformation Options
+@subsection Transformation Options
+
+You can specify name transformations by giving @command{configure} these
+command line options:
+
+@table @option
+@item --program-prefix=@var{prefix}
+prepend @var{prefix} to the names;
+
+@item --program-suffix=@var{suffix}
+append @var{suffix} to the names;
+
+@item --program-transform-name=@var{expression}
+perform @code{sed} substitution @var{expression} on the names.
+@end table
+
+@node Transformation Examples
+@subsection Transformation Examples
+
+These transformations are useful with programs that can be part of a
+cross-compilation development environment.  For example, a
+cross-assembler running on a Sun 4 configured with
+@option{--target=i960-vxworks} is normally installed as
+@file{i960-vxworks-as}, rather than @file{as}, which could be confused
+with a native Sun 4 assembler.
+
+You can force a program name to begin with @file{g}, if you don't want
+GNU programs installed on your system to shadow other programs with
+the same name.  For example, if you configure GNU @code{diff} with
+@option{--program-prefix=g}, then when you run @samp{make install} it is
+installed as @file{/usr/local/bin/gdiff}.
+
+As a more sophisticated example, you could use
+
+@example
+--program-transform-name='s/^/g/; s/^gg/g/; s/^gless/less/'
+@end example
+@noindent
+
+to prepend @samp{g} to most of the program names in a source tree,
+excepting those like @code{gdb} that already have one and those like
+@code{less} and @code{lesskey} that aren't GNU programs.  (That is
+assuming that you have a source tree containing those programs that is
+set up to use this feature.)
+
+One way to install multiple versions of some programs simultaneously is
+to append a version number to the name of one or both.  For example, if
+you want to keep Autoconf version 1 around for awhile, you can configure
+Autoconf version 2 using @option{--program-suffix=2} to install the
+programs as @file{/usr/local/bin/autoconf2},
+@file{/usr/local/bin/autoheader2}, etc.  Nevertheless, pay attention
+that only the binaries are renamed, therefore you'd have problems with
+the library files which might overlap.
+
+@node Transformation Rules
+@subsection Transformation Rules
+
+Here is how to use the variable @code{program_transform_name} in a
+@file{Makefile.in}:
+
+@example
+PROGRAMS = cp ls rm
+transform = @@program_transform_name@@
+install:
+        for p in $(PROGRAMS); do \
+          $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) $$p $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/`echo $$p | \
+                                              sed '$(transform)'`; \
+        done
+
+uninstall:
+        for p in $(PROGRAMS); do \
+          rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/`echo $$p | sed '$(transform)'`; \
+@c $$ restore font-lock
+        done
+@end example
+
+It is guaranteed that @code{program_transform_name} is never empty, and
+that there are no useless separators.  Therefore you may safely embed
+@code{program_transform_name} within a sed program using @samp{;}:
+
+@example
+transform = @@program_transform_name@@
+transform_exe = s/$(EXEEXT)$$//;$(transform);s/$$/$(EXEEXT)/
+@end example
+
+Whether to do the transformations on documentation files (Texinfo or
+@code{man}) is a tricky question; there seems to be no perfect answer,
+due to the several reasons for name transforming.  Documentation is not
+usually particular to a specific architecture, and Texinfo files do not
+conflict with system documentation.  But they might conflict with
+earlier versions of the same files, and @code{man} pages sometimes do
+conflict with system documentation.  As a compromise, it is probably
+best to do name transformations on @code{man} pages but not on Texinfo
+manuals.
+
+@node Site Defaults
+@section Setting Site Defaults
+@cindex Site defaults
+@cindex config.site
+
+Autoconf-generated @command{configure} scripts allow your site to provide
+default values for some configuration values.  You do this by creating
+site- and system-wide initialization files.
+
+@evindex CONFIG_SITE
+If the environment variable @code{CONFIG_SITE} is set, @command{configure}
+uses its value as the name of a shell script to read; it is recommended
+that this be an absolute file name.  Otherwise, it
+reads the shell script @file{@var{prefix}/share/config.site} if it exists,
+then @file{@var{prefix}/etc/config.site} if it exists.  Thus,
+settings in machine-specific files override those in machine-independent
+ones in case of conflict.
+
+Site files can be arbitrary shell scripts, but only certain kinds of
+code are really appropriate to be in them.  Because @command{configure}
+reads any cache file after it has read any site files, a site file can
+define a default cache file to be shared between all Autoconf-generated
+@command{configure} scripts run on that system (@pxref{Cache Files}).  If
+you set a default cache file in a site file, it is a good idea to also
+set the output variable @code{CC} in that site file, because the cache
+file is only valid for a particular compiler, but many systems have
+several available.
+
+You can examine or override the value set by a command line option to
+@command{configure} in a site file; options set shell variables that have
+the same names as the options, with any dashes turned into underscores.
+The exceptions are that @option{--without-} and @option{--disable-} options
+are like giving the corresponding @option{--with-} or @option{--enable-}
+option and the value @samp{no}.  Thus, @option{--cache-file=localcache}
+sets the variable @code{cache_file} to the value @samp{localcache};
+@option{--enable-warnings=no} or @option{--disable-warnings} sets the variable
+@code{enable_warnings} to the value @samp{no}; @option{--prefix=/usr} sets the
+variable @code{prefix} to the value @samp{/usr}; etc.
+
+Site files are also good places to set default values for other output
+variables, such as @code{CFLAGS}, if you need to give them non-default
+values: anything you would normally do, repetitively, on the command
+line.  If you use non-default values for @var{prefix} or
+@var{exec_prefix} (wherever you locate the site file), you can set them
+in the site file if you specify it with the @code{CONFIG_SITE}
+environment variable.
+
+You can set some cache values in the site file itself.  Doing this is
+useful if you are cross-compiling, where it is impossible to check features
+that require running a test program.  You could ``prime the cache'' by
+setting those values correctly for that system in
+@file{@var{prefix}/etc/config.site}.  To find out the names of the cache
+variables you need to set, see the documentation of the respective
+Autoconf macro.  If the variables or their semantics are undocumented,
+you may need to look for shell variables with @samp{_cv_} in their names
+in the affected @command{configure} scripts, or in the Autoconf M4
+source code for those macros; but in that case, their name or semantics
+may change in a future Autoconf version.
+
+The cache file is careful to not override any variables set in the site
+files.  Similarly, you should not override command-line options in the
+site files.  Your code should check that variables such as @code{prefix}
+and @code{cache_file} have their default values (as set near the top of
+@command{configure}) before changing them.
+
+Here is a sample file @file{/usr/share/local/@/gnu/share/@/config.site}.  The
+command @samp{configure --prefix=/usr/share/local/gnu} would read this
+file (if @code{CONFIG_SITE} is not set to a different file).
+
+@example
+# /usr/share/local/gnu/share/config.site for configure
+#
+# Change some defaults.
+test "$prefix" = NONE && prefix=/usr/share/local/gnu
+test "$exec_prefix" = NONE && exec_prefix=/usr/local/gnu
+test "$sharedstatedir" = '$@{prefix@}/com' && sharedstatedir=/var
+test "$localstatedir" = '$@{prefix@}/var' && localstatedir=/var
+
+# Give Autoconf 2.x generated configure scripts a shared default
+# cache file for feature test results, architecture-specific.
+if test "$cache_file" = /dev/null; then
+  cache_file="$prefix/var/config.cache"
+  # A cache file is only valid for one C compiler.
+  CC=gcc
+fi
+@end example
+
+@c Leave this use of ``File system'' rendered as one word, but
+@c slightly obfuscated so as not to trigger the syntax-check prohibition.
+@cindex File@/system Hierarchy Standard
+@cindex FHS
+
+Another use of @file{config.site} is for priming the directory variables
+@c ``File system'', but slightly obfuscated, as above.
+in a manner consistent with the File@/system Hierarchy Standard
+(FHS).  Once the following file is installed at
+@file{/usr/share/config.site}, a user can execute simply
+@code{./configure --prefix=/usr} to get all the directories chosen in
+the locations recommended by FHS.
+
+@example
+# /usr/share/config.site for FHS defaults when installing below /usr,
+# and the respective settings were not changed on the command line.
+if test "$prefix" = /usr; then
+  test "$sysconfdir" = '$@{prefix@}/etc' && sysconfdir=/etc
+  test "$sharedstatedir" = '$@{prefix@}/com' && sharedstatedir=/var
+  test "$localstatedir" = '$@{prefix@}/var' && localstatedir=/var
+fi

+it is appropriate to install @file{/usr/local/@/share/config.site}:
+
+@example
+# /usr/local/share/config.site for platforms that prefer

+
+The @command{configure} script creates a file named @file{config.status},
+which actually configures, @dfn{instantiates}, the template files.  It
+also records the configuration options that were specified when the
+package was last configured in case reconfiguring is needed.
+
+Synopsis:
+@example
+./config.status @ovar{option}@dots{} @ovar{tag}@dots{}
+@end example
+
+It configures each @var{tag}; if none are specified, all the templates
+are instantiated.  A @var{tag} refers to a file or other tag associated
+with a configuration action, as specified by an @code{AC_CONFIG_@var{ITEMS}}
+macro (@pxref{Configuration Actions}).  The files must be specified
+without their dependencies, as in
+
+@example
+./config.status foobar
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+not
+
+@example
+./config.status foobar:foo.in:bar.in
+@end example
+
+The supported options are:
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Print a summary of the command line options, the list of the template
+files, and exit.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Print the version number of Autoconf and the configuration settings,
+and exit.
+
+@item --config
+Print the configuration settings in reusable way, quoted for the shell,
+and exit.  For example, for a debugging build that otherwise reuses the
+configuration from a different build directory @var{build-dir} of a
+package in @var{src-dir}, you could use the following:
+
+@example
+args=`@var{build-dir}/config.status --config`
+eval @var{src-dir}/configure "$args" CFLAGS=-g --srcdir=@var{src-dir}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Note that it may be necessary to override a @option{--srcdir} setting
+that was saved in the configuration, if the arguments are used in a
+different build directory.
+
+@item --silent
+@itemx --quiet
+@itemx -q
+Do not print progress messages.
+
+@item --debug
+@itemx -d
+Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+@item --file=@var{file}[:@var{template}]
+Require that @var{file} be instantiated as if
+@samp{AC_CONFIG_FILES(@var{file}:@var{template})} was used.  Both
+@var{file} and @var{template} may be @samp{-} in which case the standard
+output and/or standard input, respectively, is used.  If a
+@var{template} file name is relative, it is first looked for in the build
+tree, and then in the source tree.  @xref{Configuration Actions}, for
+more details.
+
+This option and the following ones provide one way for separately
+distributed packages to share the values computed by @command{configure}.
+Doing so can be useful if some of the packages need a superset of the
+features that one of them, perhaps a common library, does.  These
+options allow a @file{config.status} file to create files other than the
+ones that its @file{configure.ac} specifies, so it can be used for a
+different package, or for extracting a subset of values.  For example,
+
+@example
+echo '@@CC@@' | ./config.status --file=-
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+provides the value of @code{@@CC@@} on standard output.
+
+@item --header=@var{file}[:@var{template}]
+Same as @option{--file} above, but with @samp{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}.
+
+@item --recheck
+Ask @file{config.status} to update itself and exit (no instantiation).
+This option is useful if you change @command{configure}, so that the
+results of some tests might be different from the previous run.  The
+@option{--recheck} option reruns @command{configure} with the same arguments
+you used before, plus the @option{--no-create} option, which prevents
+@command{configure} from running @file{config.status} and creating
+@file{Makefile} and other files, and the @option{--no-recursion} option,
+which prevents @command{configure} from running other @command{configure}
+scripts in subdirectories.  (This is so other Make rules can
+run @file{config.status} when it changes; @pxref{Automatic Remaking},
+for an example).
+@end table
+
+@file{config.status} checks several optional environment variables that
+can alter its behavior:
+
+@anchor{CONFIG_SHELL}
+@defvar CONFIG_SHELL
+@evindex CONFIG_SHELL
+The shell with which to run @command{configure}.  It must be
+Bourne-compatible, and the absolute name of the shell should be passed.
+The default is a shell that supports @code{LINENO} if available, and
+@file{/bin/sh} otherwise.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar CONFIG_STATUS
+@evindex CONFIG_STATUS
+The file name to use for the shell script that records the
+configuration.  The default is @file{./config.status}.  This variable is
+useful when one package uses parts of another and the @command{configure}
+scripts shouldn't be merged because they are maintained separately.
+@end defvar
+
+You can use @file{./config.status} in your makefiles.  For example, in
+the dependencies given above (@pxref{Automatic Remaking}),
+@file{config.status} is run twice when @file{configure.ac} has changed.
+If that bothers you, you can make each run only regenerate the files for
+that rule:
+@example
+@group
+config.h: stamp-h
+stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+        ./config.status config.h
+        echo > stamp-h
+
+Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+        ./config.status Makefile
+@end group
+@end example
+
+The calling convention of @file{config.status} has changed; see
+@ref{Obsolete config.status Use}, for details.

+@cindex Obsolete constructs
+
+Autoconf changes, and throughout the years some constructs have been
+obsoleted.  Most of the changes involve the macros, but in some cases
+the tools themselves, or even some concepts, are now considered
+obsolete.
+
+You may completely skip this chapter if you are new to Autoconf.  Its
+intention is mainly to help maintainers updating their packages by
+understanding how to move to more modern constructs.

+@section Obsolete @file{config.status} Invocation
+
+@file{config.status} now supports arguments to specify the files to
+instantiate; see @ref{config.status Invocation}, for more details.
+Before, environment variables had to be used.
+
+@defvar CONFIG_COMMANDS
+@evindex CONFIG_COMMANDS
+The tags of the commands to execute.  The default is the arguments given
+to @code{AC_OUTPUT} and @code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} in
+@file{configure.ac}.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar CONFIG_FILES
+@evindex CONFIG_FILES
+The files in which to perform @samp{@@@var{variable}@@} substitutions.
+The default is the arguments given to @code{AC_OUTPUT} and
+@code{AC_CONFIG_FILES} in @file{configure.ac}.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar CONFIG_HEADERS
+@evindex CONFIG_HEADERS
+The files in which to substitute C @code{#define} statements.  The
+default is the arguments given to @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}; if that
+macro was not called, @file{config.status} ignores this variable.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar CONFIG_LINKS
+@evindex CONFIG_LINKS
+The symbolic links to establish.  The default is the arguments given to
+@code{AC_CONFIG_LINKS}; if that macro was not called,
+@file{config.status} ignores this variable.
+@end defvar
+
+In @ref{config.status Invocation}, using this old interface, the example
+would be:
+
+@example
+@group
+config.h: stamp-h
+stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
+        CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_FILES= \
+          CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h ./config.status
+        echo > stamp-h
+
+Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
+        CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_HEADERS= \
+          CONFIG_FILES=Makefile ./config.status
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(If @file{configure.ac} does not call @code{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}, there is
+no need to set @code{CONFIG_HEADERS} in the @command{make} rules.  Equally
+for @code{CONFIG_COMMANDS}, etc.)
+
+
+@node acconfig Header
+@section @file{acconfig.h}
+
+@cindex @file{acconfig.h}
+@cindex @file{config.h.top}
+@cindex @file{config.h.bot}
+
+In order to produce @file{config.h.in}, @command{autoheader} needs to
+build or to find templates for each symbol.  Modern releases of Autoconf
+use @code{AH_VERBATIM} and @code{AH_TEMPLATE} (@pxref{Autoheader
+Macros}), but in older releases a file, @file{acconfig.h}, contained the
+list of needed templates.  @command{autoheader} copied comments and
+@code{#define} and @code{#undef} statements from @file{acconfig.h} in
+the current directory, if present.  This file used to be mandatory if
+you @code{AC_DEFINE} any additional symbols.
+
+Modern releases of Autoconf also provide @code{AH_TOP} and
+@code{AH_BOTTOM} if you need to prepend/append some information to
+@file{config.h.in}.  Ancient versions of Autoconf had a similar feature:
+if @file{./acconfig.h} contains the string @samp{@@TOP@@},
+@command{autoheader} copies the lines before the line containing
+@samp{@@TOP@@} into the top of the file that it generates.  Similarly,
+if @file{./acconfig.h} contains the string @samp{@@BOTTOM@@},
+@command{autoheader} copies the lines after that line to the end of the
+file it generates.  Either or both of those strings may be omitted.  An
+even older alternate way to produce the same effect in ancient versions
+of Autoconf is to create the files @file{@var{file}.top} (typically
+@file{config.h.top}) and/or @file{@var{file}.bot} in the current
+directory.  If they exist, @command{autoheader} copies them to the
+beginning and end, respectively, of its output.
+
+In former versions of Autoconf, the files used in preparing a software
+package for distribution were:
+@example
+@group
+configure.ac --.   .------> autoconf* -----> configure
+               +---+
+[aclocal.m4] --+   `---.
+[acsite.m4] ---'       |
+                       +--> [autoheader*] -> [config.h.in]
+[acconfig.h] ----.     |
+                 +-----'
+[config.h.top] --+
+[config.h.bot] --'
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Using only the @code{AH_} macros, @file{configure.ac} should be
+self-contained, and should not depend upon @file{acconfig.h} etc.
+
+
+@node autoupdate Invocation
+@section Using @command{autoupdate} to Modernize @file{configure.ac}
+@cindex @command{autoupdate}
+
+The @command{autoupdate} program updates a @file{configure.ac} file that
+calls Autoconf macros by their old names to use the current macro names.
+In version 2 of Autoconf, most of the macros were renamed to use a more
+uniform and descriptive naming scheme.  @xref{Macro Names}, for a
+description of the new scheme.  Although the old names still work
+(@pxref{Obsolete Macros}, for a list of the old macros and the corresponding
+new names), you can make your @file{configure.ac} files more readable
+and make it easier to use the current Autoconf documentation if you
+update them to use the new macro names.
+
+@evindex SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX
+If given no arguments, @command{autoupdate} updates @file{configure.ac},
+backing up the original version with the suffix @file{~} (or the value
+of the environment variable @code{SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX}, if that is
+set).  If you give @command{autoupdate} an argument, it reads that file
+instead of @file{configure.ac} and writes the updated file to the
+standard output.
+
+@noindent
+@command{autoupdate} accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Print the version number of Autoconf and exit.
+
+@item --verbose
+@itemx -v
+Report processing steps.
+
+@item --debug
+@itemx -d
+Don't remove the temporary files.
+
+@item --force
+@itemx -f
+Force the update even if the file has not changed.  Disregard the cache.
+
+@item --include=@var{dir}
+@itemx -I @var{dir}
+Also look for input files in @var{dir}.  Multiple invocations accumulate.
+Directories are browsed from last to first.
+
+@item --prepend-include=@var{dir}
+@itemx -B @var{dir}
+Prepend directory @var{dir} to the search path.  This is used to include
+the language-specific files before any third-party macros.
+@end table
+
+@node Obsolete Macros
+@section Obsolete Macros
+
+Several macros are obsoleted in Autoconf, for various reasons (typically
+they failed to quote properly, couldn't be extended for more recent
+issues, etc.).  They are still supported, but deprecated: their use
+should be avoided.
+
+During the jump from Autoconf version 1 to version 2, most of the
+macros were renamed to use a more uniform and descriptive naming scheme,
+but their signature did not change.  @xref{Macro Names}, for a
+description of the new naming scheme.  Below, if there is just the mapping
+from old names to new names for these macros, the reader is invited to
+refer to the definition of the new macro for the signature and the
+description.
+
+@defmac AC_AIX
+@acindex{AIX}

+@acindex{C_LONG_DOUBLE}
+@cvindex HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE
+If the C compiler supports a working @code{long double} type with more
+range or precision than the @code{double} type, define
+@code{HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE}.
+
+You should use @code{AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE} or
+@code{AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER} instead.  @xref{Particular Types}.
+@end defmac

+@defmac AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM
+@acindex{CANONICAL_SYSTEM}
+Determine the system type and set output variables to the names of the
+canonical system types.  @xref{Canonicalizing}, for details about the
+variables this macro sets.
+
+The user is encouraged to use either @code{AC_CANONICAL_BUILD}, or
+@code{AC_CANONICAL_HOST}, or @code{AC_CANONICAL_TARGET}, depending on
+the needs.  Using @code{AC_CANONICAL_TARGET} is enough to run the two
+other macros (@pxref{Canonicalizing}).
+@end defmac

+@acindex{CHAR_UNSIGNED}
+Replaced by @code{AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED} (@pxref{AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED}).
+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_CHECK_TYPE (@var{type}, @var{default})
+@acindex{CHECK_TYPE}
+Autoconf, up to 2.13, used to provide this version of
+@code{AC_CHECK_TYPE}, deprecated because of its flaws.  First, although
+it is a member of the @code{CHECK} clan, it does
+more than just checking.  Secondly, missing types are defined
+using @code{#define}, not @code{typedef}, and this can lead to
+problems in the case of pointer types.
+
+This use of @code{AC_CHECK_TYPE} is obsolete and discouraged; see
+@ref{Generic Types}, for the description of the current macro.
+
+If the type @var{type} is not defined, define it to be the C (or C++)
+builtin type @var{default}, e.g., @samp{short int} or @samp{unsigned int}.
+
+This macro is equivalent to:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_TYPE([@var{type}], [],
+  [AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([@var{type}], [@var{default}],
+     [Define to `@var{default}'
+      if <sys/types.h> does not define.])])
+@end example
+
+In order to keep backward compatibility, the two versions of
+@code{AC_CHECK_TYPE} are implemented, selected using these heuristics:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+If there are three or four arguments, the modern version is used.
+
+@item
+If the second argument appears to be a C or C++ type, then the
+obsolete version is used.  This happens if the argument is a C or C++
+@emph{builtin} type or a C identifier ending in @samp{_t}, optionally
+followed by one of @samp{[(* } and then by a string of zero or more
+characters taken from the set @samp{[]()* _a-zA-Z0-9}.
+
+@item
+If the second argument is spelled with the alphabet of valid C and C++
+types, the user is warned and the modern version is used.
+
+@item
+Otherwise, the modern version is used.
+@end enumerate
+
+@noindent
+You are encouraged either to use a valid builtin type, or to use the
+equivalent modern code (see above), or better yet, to use
+@code{AC_CHECK_TYPES} together with
+

+addition that it prints @samp{checking for @var{echo-text}} to the
+standard output first, if @var{echo-text} is non-empty.  Use

+  *cygwin* ) CYGWIN=yes;;
+         * ) CYGWIN=no;;

+The use of @code{AC_OUTPUT} with arguments is deprecated.  This obsoleted

+
+@example
+@group
+AC_CONFIG_FILES(@var{file}@dots{})
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([default],
+                   @var{extra-cmds}, @var{init-cmds})

+@end defmac
+
+@defmac AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS (@var{extra-cmds}, @ovar{init-cmds})
+@acindex{OUTPUT_COMMANDS}
+Specify additional shell commands to run at the end of
+@file{config.status}, and shell commands to initialize any variables
+from @command{configure}.  This macro may be called multiple times.  It is
+obsolete, replaced by @code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} (@pxref{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS}).
+
+Here is an unrealistic example:
+
+@example
+fubar=27
+AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo this is extra $fubar, and so on.],
+                   [fubar=$fubar])
+AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo this is another, extra, bit],
+                   [echo init bit])
+@end example
+
+Aside from the fact that @code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS} requires an
+additional key, an important difference is that
+@code{AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS} is quoting its arguments twice, unlike
+@code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS}.  This means that @code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS}
+can safely be given macro calls as arguments:
+
+@example
+AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS(foo, [my_FOO()])
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Conversely, where one level of quoting was enough for literal strings
+with @code{AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS}, you need two with
+@code{AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS}.  The following lines are equivalent:
+
+@example
+@group
+AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS([echo "Square brackets: []"])

+
+If you have an @file{aclocal.m4} installed with Autoconf (as opposed to
+in a particular package's source directory), you must rename it to
+@file{acsite.m4}.  @xref{autoconf Invocation}.
+
+If you distribute @file{install.sh} with your package, rename it to
+@file{install-sh} so @command{make} builtin rules don't inadvertently
+create a file called @file{install} from it.  @code{AC_PROG_INSTALL}
+looks for the script under both names, but it is best to use the new name.
+
+If you were using @file{config.h.top}, @file{config.h.bot}, or

+use the @code{AH_} macros.  @xref{Autoheader Macros}.
+

+of those variables in the environment when @command{configure} is run.
+Doing this isn't necessary, but it's a convenience for users.
+
+Also add @samp{@@configure_input@@} in a comment to each input file for
+@code{AC_OUTPUT}, so that the output files contain a comment saying
+they were produced by @command{configure}.  Automatically selecting the
+right comment syntax for all the kinds of files that people call
+@code{AC_OUTPUT} on became too much work.
+
+Add @file{config.log} and @file{config.cache} to the list of files you
+remove in @code{distclean} targets.
+
+If you have the following in @file{Makefile.in}:
+
+@example

+@end example
+
+@noindent
+you must change it to:
+
+@example
+prefix = @@prefix@@
+exec_prefix = @@exec_prefix@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The old behavior of replacing those variables without @samp{@@}
+characters around them has been removed.
+
+@node Changed Macros
+@subsection Changed Macros
+
+Many of the macros were renamed in Autoconf version 2.  You can still
+use the old names, but the new ones are clearer, and it's easier to find
+the documentation for them.  @xref{Obsolete Macros}, for a table showing the
+new names for the old macros.  Use the @command{autoupdate} program to
+convert your @file{configure.ac} to using the new macro names.
+@xref{autoupdate Invocation}.
+
+Some macros have been superseded by similar ones that do the job better,
+but are not call-compatible.  If you get warnings about calling obsolete
+macros while running @command{autoconf}, you may safely ignore them, but
+your @command{configure} script generally works better if you follow
+the advice that is printed about what to replace the obsolete macros with.  In
+particular, the mechanism for reporting the results of tests has
+changed.  If you were using @command{echo} or @code{AC_VERBOSE} (perhaps
+via @code{AC_COMPILE_CHECK}), your @command{configure} script's output
+looks better if you switch to @code{AC_MSG_CHECKING} and
+@code{AC_MSG_RESULT}.  @xref{Printing Messages}.  Those macros work best
+in conjunction with cache variables.  @xref{Caching Results}.
+
+
+
+@node Changed Results
+@subsection Changed Results
+
+If you were checking the results of previous tests by examining the
+shell variable @code{DEFS}, you need to switch to checking the values of
+the cache variables for those tests.  @code{DEFS} no longer exists while
+@command{configure} is running; it is only created when generating output
+files.  This difference from version 1 is because properly quoting the
+contents of that variable turned out to be too cumbersome and
+inefficient to do every time @code{AC_DEFINE} is called.  @xref{Cache
+Variable Names}.
+
+For example, here is a @file{configure.ac} fragment written for Autoconf
+version 1:
+
+@example
+AC_HAVE_FUNCS(syslog)
+case "$DEFS" in
+*-DHAVE_SYSLOG*) ;;
+*) # syslog is not in the default libraries.  See if it's in some other.
+  saved_LIBS="$LIBS"
+  for lib in bsd socket inet; do
+    AC_CHECKING(for syslog in -l$lib)
+    LIBS="-l$lib $saved_LIBS"
+    AC_HAVE_FUNCS(syslog)
+    case "$DEFS" in
+    *-DHAVE_SYSLOG*) break ;;
+    *) ;;
+    esac
+    LIBS="$saved_LIBS"
+  done ;;
+esac
+@end example
+
+Here is a way to write it for version 2:
+
+@example
+AC_CHECK_FUNCS([syslog])
+if test "x$ac_cv_func_syslog" = xno; then
+  # syslog is not in the default libraries.  See if it's in some other.
+  for lib in bsd socket inet; do
+    AC_CHECK_LIB([$lib], [syslog], [AC_DEFINE([HAVE_SYSLOG])
+      LIBS="-l$lib $LIBS"; break])
+  done
+fi
+@end example
+
+If you were working around bugs in @code{AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED} by adding
+backslashes before quotes, you need to remove them.  It now works
+predictably, and does not treat quotes (except back quotes) specially.
+@xref{Setting Output Variables}.
+
+All of the Boolean shell variables set by Autoconf macros now use
+@samp{yes} for the true value.  Most of them use @samp{no} for false,
+though for backward compatibility some use the empty string instead.  If
+you were relying on a shell variable being set to something like 1 or
+@samp{t} for true, you need to change your tests.
+
+@node Changed Macro Writing
+@subsection Changed Macro Writing
+
+When defining your own macros, you should now use @code{AC_DEFUN}
+instead of @code{define}.  @code{AC_DEFUN} automatically calls
+@code{AC_PROVIDE} and ensures that macros called via @code{AC_REQUIRE}
+do not interrupt other macros, to prevent nested @samp{checking@dots{}}
+messages on the screen.  There's no actual harm in continuing to use the
+older way, but it's less convenient and attractive.  @xref{Macro
+Definitions}.
+
+You probably looked at the macros that came with Autoconf as a guide for
+how to do things.  It would be a good idea to take a look at the new
+versions of them, as the style is somewhat improved and they take
+advantage of some new features.
+
+If you were doing tricky things with undocumented Autoconf internals
+(macros, variables, diversions), check whether you need to change
+anything to account for changes that have been made.  Perhaps you can
+even use an officially supported technique in version 2 instead of
+kludging.  Or perhaps not.
+
+To speed up your locally written feature tests, add caching to them.
+See whether any of your tests are of general enough usefulness to
+encapsulate them into macros that you can share.

+@subsection Changed Quotation
+
+The most important changes are invisible to you: the implementation of
+most macros have completely changed.  This allowed more factorization of
+the code, better error messages, a higher uniformity of the user's
+interface etc.  Unfortunately, as a side effect, some construct which
+used to (miraculously) work might break starting with Autoconf 2.50.
+The most common culprit is bad quotation.
+
+For instance, in the following example, the message is not properly
+quoted:
+
+@example
+AC_INIT
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS(foo.h, ,
+  AC_MSG_ERROR(cannot find foo.h, bailing out))
+AC_OUTPUT
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Autoconf 2.13 simply ignores it:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{autoconf-2.13; ./configure --silent}
+creating cache ./config.cache
+configure: error: cannot find foo.h
+$
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+while Autoconf 2.50 produces a broken @file{configure}:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{autoconf-2.50; ./configure --silent}
+configure: error: cannot find foo.h
+./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `bailing'
+./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `bailing'
+$
+@end example
+
+The message needs to be quoted, and the @code{AC_MSG_ERROR} invocation
+too!
+
+@example
+AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@@example.org])
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([foo.h], [],
+  [AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot find foo.h, bailing out])])
+AC_OUTPUT
+@end example
+
+Many many (and many more) Autoconf macros were lacking proper quotation,
+including no less than@dots{} @code{AC_DEFUN} itself!
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat configure.in}
+AC_DEFUN([AC_PROG_INSTALL],
+[# My own much better version

+@node New Macros
+@subsection New Macros
+
+@cindex undefined macro
+@cindex @code{_m4_divert_diversion}
+
+While Autoconf was relatively dormant in the late 1990s, Automake
+provided Autoconf-like macros for a while.  Starting with Autoconf 2.50
+in 2001, Autoconf provided
+versions of these macros, integrated in the @code{AC_} namespace,
+instead of @code{AM_}.  But in order to ease the upgrading via
+@command{autoupdate}, bindings to such @code{AM_} macros are provided.
+
+Unfortunately older versions of Automake (e.g., Automake 1.4)
+did not quote the names of these macros.
+Therefore, when @command{m4} finds something like
+@samp{AC_DEFUN(AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T, @dots{})} in @file{aclocal.m4},
+@code{AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T} is
+expanded, replaced with its Autoconf definition.
+
+Fortunately Autoconf catches pre-@code{AC_INIT} expansions, and
+complains, in its own words:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@@example.org])
+AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T
+$ @kbd{aclocal-1.4}
+$ @kbd{autoconf}
+aclocal.m4:17: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion
+aclocal.m4:17: the top level
+autom4te: m4 failed with exit status: 1
+$
+@end example
+
+Modern versions of Automake no longer define most of these
+macros, and properly quote the names of the remaining macros.
+If you must use an old Automake, do not depend upon macros from Automake
+as it is simply not its job
+to provide macros (but the one it requires itself):
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@@example.org])
+AM_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T
+$ @kbd{rm aclocal.m4}
+$ @kbd{autoupdate}
+autoupdate: `configure.ac' is updated
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@@example.org])
+AC_CHECK_TYPES([ptrdiff_t])
+$ @kbd{aclocal-1.4}

+
+@node Hosts and Cross-Compilation
+@subsection Hosts and Cross-Compilation
+@cindex Cross compilation
+
+Based on the experience of compiler writers, and after long public
+debates, many aspects of the cross-compilation chain have changed:
+
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+the relationship between the build, host, and target architecture types,
+
+@item
+the command line interface for specifying them to @command{configure},
+
+@item
+the variables defined in @command{configure},
+
+@item
+the enabling of cross-compilation mode.
+@end itemize
+
+@sp 1
+
+The relationship between build, host, and target have been cleaned up:
+the chain of default is now simply: target defaults to host, host to
+build, and build to the result of @command{config.guess}.  Nevertheless,
+in order to ease the transition from 2.13 to 2.50, the following
+transition scheme is implemented.  @emph{Do not rely on it}, as it will
+be completely disabled in a couple of releases (we cannot keep it, as it
+proves to cause more problems than it cures).
+
+They all default to the result of running @command{config.guess}, unless
+you specify either @option{--build} or @option{--host}.  In this case,
+the default becomes the system type you specified.  If you specify both,
+and they're different, @command{configure} enters cross compilation
+mode, so it doesn't run any tests that require execution.
+
+Hint: if you mean to override the result of @command{config.guess},
+prefer @option{--build} over @option{--host}.
+
+@sp 1
+
+For backward compatibility, @command{configure} accepts a system
+type as an option by itself.  Such an option overrides the
+defaults for build, host, and target system types.  The following
+configure statement configures a cross toolchain that runs on
+NetBSD/alpha but generates code for GNU Hurd/sparc,
+which is also the build platform.
+
+@example
+./configure --host=alpha-netbsd sparc-gnu
+@end example
+
+@sp 1
+
+In Autoconf 2.13 and before, the variables @code{build}, @code{host},
+and @code{target} had a different semantics before and after the
+invocation of @code{AC_CANONICAL_BUILD} etc.  Now, the argument of
+@option{--build} is strictly copied into @code{build_alias}, and is left
+empty otherwise.  After the @code{AC_CANONICAL_BUILD}, @code{build} is
+set to the canonicalized build type.  To ease the transition, before,
+its contents is the same as that of @code{build_alias}.  Do @emph{not}
+rely on this broken feature.
+
+For consistency with the backward compatibility scheme exposed above,
+when @option{--host} is specified but @option{--build} isn't, the build
+system is assumed to be the same as @option{--host}, and
+@samp{build_alias} is set to that value.  Eventually, this
+historically incorrect behavior will go away.
+
+@sp 1
+
+The former scheme to enable cross-compilation proved to cause more harm
+than good, in particular, it used to be triggered too easily, leaving
+regular end users puzzled in front of cryptic error messages.
+@command{configure} could even enter cross-compilation mode only
+because the compiler was not functional.  This is mainly because
+@command{configure} used to try to detect cross-compilation, instead of
+waiting for an explicit flag from the user.
+
+Now, @command{configure} enters cross-compilation mode if and only if
+@option{--host} is passed.
+
+That's the short documentation.  To ease the transition between 2.13 and
+its successors, a more complicated scheme is implemented.  @emph{Do not
+rely on the following}, as it will be removed in the near future.
+
+If you specify @option{--host}, but not @option{--build}, when
+@command{configure} performs the first compiler test it tries to run
+an executable produced by the compiler.  If the execution fails, it
+enters cross-compilation mode.  This is fragile.  Moreover, by the time
+the compiler test is performed, it may be too late to modify the
+build-system type: other tests may have already been performed.
+Therefore, whenever you specify @option{--host}, be sure to specify
+@option{--build} too.
+
+@example
+./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=m68k-coff
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+enters cross-compilation mode.  The former interface, which
+consisted in setting the compiler to a cross-compiler without informing
+@command{configure} is obsolete.  For instance, @command{configure}
+fails if it can't run the code generated by the specified compiler if you
+configure as follows:
+
+@example
+./configure CC=m68k-coff-gcc
+@end example
+
+
+@node AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS
+@subsection @code{AC_LIBOBJ} vs.@: @code{LIBOBJS}
+
+Up to Autoconf 2.13, the replacement of functions was triggered via the
+variable @code{LIBOBJS}.  Since Autoconf 2.50, the macro
+@code{AC_LIBOBJ} should be used instead (@pxref{Generic Functions}).
+Starting at Autoconf 2.53, the use of @code{LIBOBJS} is an error.
+
+This change is mandated by the unification of the GNU Build System
+components.  In particular, the various fragile techniques used to parse
+a @file{configure.ac} are all replaced with the use of traces.  As a
+consequence, any action must be traceable, which obsoletes critical
+variable assignments.  Fortunately, @code{LIBOBJS} was the only problem,
+and it can even be handled gracefully (read, ``without your having to
+change something'').
+
+There were two typical uses of @code{LIBOBJS}: asking for a replacement
+function, and adjusting @code{LIBOBJS} for Automake and/or Libtool.
+
+@sp 1
+
+As for function replacement, the fix is immediate: use
+@code{AC_LIBOBJ}.  For instance:
+
+@example
+LIBOBJS="$LIBOBJS fnmatch.o"
+LIBOBJS="$LIBOBJS malloc.$ac_objext"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+should be replaced with:
+
+@example
+AC_LIBOBJ([fnmatch])
+AC_LIBOBJ([malloc])
+@end example
+
+@sp 1
+
+@ovindex LIBOBJDIR
+When used with Automake 1.10 or newer, a suitable value for
+@code{LIBOBJDIR} is set so that the @code{LIBOBJS} and @code{LTLIBOBJS}
+can be referenced from any @file{Makefile.am}.  Even without Automake,
+arranging for @code{LIBOBJDIR} to be set correctly enables
+referencing @code{LIBOBJS} and @code{LTLIBOBJS} in another directory.
+The @code{LIBOBJDIR} feature is experimental.

+Since Autoconf 2.50, internal codes uses @code{AC_PREPROC_IFELSE},

+@code{AC_RUN_IFELSE} on one hand and @code{AC_LANG_SOURCE},
+and @code{AC_LANG_PROGRAM} on the other hand instead of the deprecated
+@code{AC_TRY_CPP}, @code{AC_TRY_COMPILE}, @code{AC_TRY_LINK}, and
+@code{AC_TRY_RUN}.  The motivations where:
+@itemize @minus
+@item
+a more consistent interface: @code{AC_TRY_COMPILE} etc.@: were double
+quoting their arguments;
+
+@item
+the combinatoric explosion is solved by decomposing on the one hand the
+generation of sources, and on the other hand executing the program;
+
+@item
+this scheme helps supporting more languages than plain C and C++.
+@end itemize
+
+In addition to the change of syntax, the philosophy has changed too:
+while emphasis was put on speed at the expense of accuracy, today's
+Autoconf promotes accuracy of the testing framework at, ahem@dots{}, the
+expense of speed.
+
+
+As a perfect example of what is @emph{not} to be done, here is how to
+find out whether a header file contains a particular declaration, such
+as a typedef, a structure, a structure member, or a function.  Use
+@code{AC_EGREP_HEADER} instead of running @code{grep} directly on the
+header file; on some systems the symbol might be defined in another
+header file that the file you are checking includes.
+
+As a (bad) example, here is how you should not check for C preprocessor
+symbols, either defined by header files or predefined by the C
+preprocessor: using @code{AC_EGREP_CPP}:
+
+@example
+@group
+AC_EGREP_CPP(yes,
+[#ifdef _AIX
+  yes
+#endif
+], is_aix=yes, is_aix=no)
+@end group
+@end example

+@example
+@group
+AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
+[[#ifndef _AIX
+ error: This isn't AIX!
+#endif
+]])],
+                   [is_aix=yes],

+the very platforms that are most likely to torture Autoconf and
+exhibit deficiencies.
+
+To circumvent this problem, many package maintainers have developed their
+own testing framework, based on simple shell scripts whose sole outputs
+are exit status values describing whether the test succeeded.  Most of
+these tests share common patterns, and this can result in lots of
+duplicated code and tedious maintenance.
+
+Following exactly the same reasoning that yielded to the inception of
+Autoconf, Autotest provides a test suite generation framework, based on
+M4 macros building a portable shell script.  The suite itself is
+equipped with automatic logging and tracing facilities which greatly
+diminish the interaction with bug reporters, and simple timing reports.
+
+Autoconf itself has been using Autotest for years, and we do attest that
+it has considerably improved the strength of the test suite and the
+quality of bug reports.  Other projects are known to use some generation
+of Autotest, such as Bison, Free Recode, Free Wdiff, GNU Tar, each of
+them with different needs, and this usage has validated Autotest as a general
+testing framework.
+
+Nonetheless, compared to DejaGNU, Autotest is inadequate for
+interactive tool testing, which is probably its main limitation.

+@subsection @command{testsuite} Scripts
+
+@cindex @command{testsuite}
+
+Generating testing or validation suites using Autotest is rather easy.
+The whole validation suite is held in a file to be processed through
+@command{autom4te}, itself using GNU M4 under the hood, to
+produce a stand-alone Bourne shell script which then gets distributed.
+Neither @command{autom4te} nor GNU M4 are needed at
+the installer's end.
+
+@cindex test group
+Each test of the validation suite should be part of some test group.  A
+@dfn{test group} is a sequence of interwoven tests that ought to be
+executed together, usually because one test in the group creates data
+files that a later test in the same group needs to read.  Complex test
+groups make later debugging more tedious.  It is much better to
+keep only a few tests per test group.  Ideally there is only one test
+per test group.
+
+For all but the simplest packages, some file such as @file{testsuite.at}
+does not fully hold all test sources, as these are often easier to
+maintain in separate files.  Each of these separate files holds a single
+test group, or a sequence of test groups all addressing some common
+functionality in the package.  In such cases, @file{testsuite.at}
+merely initializes the validation suite, and sometimes does elementary
+health checking, before listing include statements for all other test
+files.  The special file @file{package.m4}, containing the
+identification of the package, is automatically included if found.
+
+A convenient alternative consists in moving all the global issues
+(local Autotest macros, elementary health checking, and @code{AT_INIT}
+invocation) into the file @code{local.at}, and making
+@file{testsuite.at} be a simple list of @code{m4_include}s of sub test
+suites.  In such case, generating the whole test suite or pieces of it
+is only a matter of choosing the @command{autom4te} command line
+arguments.
+
+The validation scripts that Autotest produces are by convention called
+@command{testsuite}.  When run, @command{testsuite} executes each test
+group in turn, producing only one summary line per test to say if that
+particular test succeeded or failed.  At end of all tests, summarizing
+counters get printed.  One debugging directory is left for each test
+group which failed, if any: such directories are named
+@file{testsuite.dir/@var{nn}}, where @var{nn} is the sequence number of
+the test group, and they include:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item a debugging script named @file{run} which reruns the test in
+@dfn{debug mode} (@pxref{testsuite Invocation}).  The automatic generation
+of debugging scripts has the purpose of easing the chase for bugs.
+
+@item all the files created with @code{AT_DATA}
+
+@item all the Erlang source code files created with @code{AT_CHECK_EUNIT}
+
+@item a log of the run, named @file{testsuite.log}
+@end itemize
+
+In the ideal situation, none of the tests fail, and consequently no
+debugging directory is left behind for validation.
+
+It often happens in practice that individual tests in the validation
+suite need to get information coming out of the configuration process.
+Some of this information, common for all validation suites, is provided
+through the file @file{atconfig}, automatically created by
+@code{AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR}.  For configuration information which your
+testing environment specifically needs, you might prepare an optional
+file named @file{atlocal.in}, instantiated by @code{AC_CONFIG_FILES}.
+The configuration process produces @file{atconfig} and @file{atlocal}
+out of these two input files, and these two produced files are
+automatically read by the @file{testsuite} script.
+
+Here is a diagram showing the relationship between files.

+@node Autotest Logs
+@subsection Autotest Logs
+
+When run, the test suite creates a log file named after itself, e.g., a
+test suite named @command{testsuite} creates @file{testsuite.log}.  It
+contains a lot of information, usually more than maintainers actually
+need, but therefore most of the time it contains all that is needed:
+
+@table @asis
+@item command line arguments
+A bad but unfortunately widespread habit consists of
+setting environment variables before the command, such as in
+@samp{CC=my-home-grown-cc ./testsuite}.  The test suite does not
+know this change, hence (i) it cannot report it to you, and (ii)
+it cannot preserve the value of @code{CC} for subsequent runs.
+Autoconf faced exactly the same problem, and solved it by asking
+users to pass the variable definitions as command line arguments.
+Autotest requires this rule, too, but has no means to enforce it; the log
+then contains a trace of the variables that were changed by the user.
+
+@item @file{ChangeLog} excerpts
+The topmost lines of all the @file{ChangeLog} files found in the source
+hierarchy.  This is especially useful when bugs are reported against
+development versions of the package, since the version string does not
+provide sufficient information to know the exact state of the sources
+the user compiled.  Of course, this relies on the use of a
+@file{ChangeLog}.
+
+@item build machine
+Running a test suite in a cross-compile environment is not an easy task,
+since it would mean having the test suite run on a machine @var{build},
+while running programs on a machine @var{host}.  It is much simpler to
+run both the test suite and the programs on @var{host}, but then, from
+the point of view of the test suite, there remains a single environment,
+@var{host} = @var{build}.  The log contains relevant information on the
+state of the @var{build} machine, including some important environment
+variables.
+@c FIXME: How about having an M4sh macro to say `hey, log the value
+@c of `@dots{}'?  This would help both Autoconf and Autotest.
+
+@item tested programs
+The absolute file name and answers to @option{--version} of the tested
+programs (see @ref{Writing Testsuites}, @code{AT_TESTED}).
+
+@item configuration log
+The contents of @file{config.log}, as created by @command{configure},
+are appended.  It contains the configuration flags and a detailed report
+on the configuration itself.
+@end table
+
+
+@node Writing Testsuites
+@section Writing @file{testsuite.at}
+
+The @file{testsuite.at} is a Bourne shell script making use of special
+Autotest M4 macros.  It often contains a call to @code{AT_INIT} near
+its beginning followed by one call to @code{m4_include} per source file
+for tests.  Each such included file, or the remainder of
+@file{testsuite.at} if include files are not used, contain a sequence of
+test groups.  Each test group begins with a call to @code{AT_SETUP},
+then an arbitrary number of shell commands or calls to @code{AT_CHECK},
+and then completes with a call to @code{AT_CLEANUP}.  Multiple test
+groups can be categorized by a call to @code{AT_BANNER}.
+
+All of the public Autotest macros have all-uppercase names in the
+namespace @samp{^AT_} to prevent them from accidentally conflicting with
+other text; Autoconf also reserves the namespace @samp{^_AT_} for
+internal macros.  All shell variables used in the testsuite for internal
+purposes have mostly-lowercase names starting with @samp{at_}.  Autotest
+also uses here-document delimiters in the namespace @samp{^_AT[A-Z]}, and
+makes use of the file system namespace @samp{^at-}.
+
+Since Autoconf is built on top of M4sugar (@pxref{Programming in
+M4sugar}) and M4sh (@pxref{Programming in M4sh}), you must also be aware
+of those namespaces (@samp{^_?\(m4\|AS\)_}).  In general, you
+@emph{should not use} the namespace of a package that does not own the
+macro or shell code you are writing.
+
+@defmac AT_INIT (@ovar{name})
+@atindex{INIT}
+@c FIXME: Not clear, plus duplication of the information.

+encouraged if your package includes several test suites.  Before this
+macro is called, @code{AT_PACKAGE_STRING} and
+@code{AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT} must be defined, which are used to display
+information about the testsuite to the user.  Typically, these macros
+are provided by a file @file{package.m4} built by @command{make}
+(@pxref{Making testsuite Scripts}), in order to inherit the package
+name, version, and bug reporting address from @file{configure.ac}.

+@atindex{CHECK_UNQUOTED}
+@vrindex at_status
+Execute a test by performing given shell @var{commands} in a subshell.
+@var{commands} is output as-is, so shell expansions are honored.  These
+commands should normally exit with @var{status}, while producing expected
+@var{stdout} and @var{stderr} contents.  If @var{commands} exit with
+unexpected status 77, then the rest of the test group is skipped.  If
+@var{commands} exit with unexpected status 99, then the test group is
+immediately failed.  Otherwise, if this test fails, run shell commands
+@var{run-if-fail} or, if this test passes, run shell commands
+@var{run-if-pass}, both inside the current shell execution environment.
+At the beginning of @var{run-if-fail} and @var{run-if-pass}, the status of
+@var{commands} is available in the @code{at_status} shell variable.
+
+This macro must be invoked in between @code{AT_SETUP} and @code{AT_CLEANUP}.
+
+If @var{status} is the literal @samp{ignore}, then the corresponding
+exit status is not checked, except for the special cases of 77 (skip)
+and 99 (hard failure).  The existence of hard failures allows one to
+mark a test as an expected failure with @code{AT_XFAIL_IF} because a
+feature has not yet been implemented, but to still distinguish between
+gracefully handling the missing feature and dumping core.  A hard
+failure also inhibits post-test actions in @var{run-if-fail}.
+
+If the value of the @var{stdout} or @var{stderr} parameter is one of the
+literals in the following table, then the test treats the output
+according to the rules of that literal.  Otherwise, the value of the
+parameter is treated as text that must exactly match the output given by
+@var{commands} on standard output and standard error (including an empty
+parameter for no output); any differences are captured in the testsuite
+log and the test is failed (unless an unexpected exit status of 77
+skipped the test instead).  The difference between @code{AT_CHECK} and
+@code{AT_CHECK_UNQUOTED} is that only the latter performs shell variable
+expansion (@samp{$}), command substitution (@samp{`}), and backslash
+escaping (@samp{\}) on comparison text given in the @var{stdout} and
+@var{stderr} arguments; if the text includes a trailing newline, this
+would be the same as if it were specified via an unquoted
+here-document.  (However, there is no difference in the interpretation
+of @var{commands}).
+
+@table @samp
+@item ignore
+The content of the output is ignored, but still captured in the test
+group log (if the testsuite is run with option @option{-v}, the test
+group log is displayed as the test is run; if the test group later
+fails, the test group log is also copied into the overall testsuite
+log).  This action is valid for both @var{stdout} and @var{stderr}.
+
+@item ignore-nolog
+The content of the output is ignored, and nothing is captured in the log
+files.  If @var{commands} are likely to produce binary output (including
+long lines) or large amounts of output, then logging the output can make
+it harder to locate details related to subsequent tests within the
+group, and could potentially corrupt terminal display of a user running
+@command{testsuite -v}.
+
+@item stdout
+For the @var{stdout} parameter, capture the content of standard output
+to both the file @file{stdout} and the test group log.  Subsequent
+commands in the test group can then post-process the file.  This action
+is often used when it is desired to use @command{grep} to look for a
+substring in the output, or when the output must be post-processed to
+normalize error messages into a common form.
+
+@item stderr
+Like @samp{stdout}, except that it only works for the @var{stderr}
+parameter, and the standard error capture file will be named
+@file{stderr}.
+
+@item stdout-nolog
+@itemx stderr-nolog
+Like @samp{stdout} or @samp{stderr}, except that the captured output is
+not duplicated into the test group log.  This action is particularly
+useful for an intermediate check that produces large amounts of data,
+which will be followed by another check that filters down to the
+relevant data, as it makes it easier to locate details in the log.
+
+@item expout
+For the @var{stdout} parameter, compare standard output contents with
+the previously created file @file{expout}, and list any differences in
+the testsuite log.
+
+@item experr
+Like @samp{expout}, except that it only works for the @var{stderr}
+parameter, and the standard error contents are compared with
+@file{experr}.

+This macro must be invoked in between @code{AT_SETUP} and @code{AT_CLEANUP}.
+
+Variables @code{ERL}, @code{ERLC}, and (optionally) @code{ERLCFLAGS}
+must be defined as the path of the Erlang interpreter, the path of the
+Erlang compiler, and the command-line flags to pass to the compiler,
+respectively.  Those variables should be configured in
+@file{configure.ac} using the @command{AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL} and
+@command{AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC} macros, and the configured values of those
+variables are automatically defined in the testsuite.  If @code{ERL} or
+@code{ERLC} is not defined, the test group is skipped.
+
+If the EUnit library cannot be found, i.e. if module @code{eunit} cannot
+be loaded, the test group is skipped.  Otherwise, if @var{test-spec} is
+an invalid EUnit test specification, the test group fails.  Otherwise,
+if the EUnit test passes, shell commands @var{run-if-pass} are executed
+or, if the EUnit test fails, shell commands @var{run-if-fail} are
+executed and the test group fails.
+
+Only the generated test Erlang module is automatically compiled and
+executed.  If @var{test-spec} involves testing other Erlang modules,
+e.g. module @samp{testme} in the example above, those modules must be
+already compiled.
+
+If the testsuite is run in verbose mode, with option @option{--verbose},
+EUnit is also run in verbose mode to output more details about

+@section Running @command{testsuite} Scripts
+@cindex @command{testsuite}
+
+Autotest test suites support the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Display the list of options and exit successfully.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Display the version of the test suite and exit successfully.
+
+@item --directory=@var{dir}
+@itemx -C @var{dir}
+Change the current directory to @var{dir} before creating any files.
+Useful for running the testsuite in a subdirectory from a top-level
+Makefile.
+
+@item --jobs@r{[}=@var{n}@r{]}
+@itemx -j@ovar{n}
+Run @var{n} tests in parallel, if possible.  If @var{n} is not given,
+run all given tests in parallel.  Note that there should be no space
+before the argument to @option{-j}, as @option{-j @var{number}} denotes
+the separate arguments @option{-j} and @option{@var{number}}, see below.
+
+In parallel mode, the standard input device of the testsuite script is
+not available to commands inside a test group.  Furthermore, banner
+lines are not printed, and the summary line for each test group is
+output after the test group completes.  Summary lines may appear
+unordered.  If verbose and trace output are enabled (see below), they
+may appear intermixed from concurrently running tests.
+
+Parallel mode requires the @command{mkfifo} command to work, and will be
+silently disabled otherwise.
+
+@item --clean
+@itemx -c
+Remove all the files the test suite might have created and exit.  Meant
+for @code{clean} Make targets.
+
+@item --list
+@itemx -l
+List all the tests (or only the selection), including their possible
+keywords.
+@end table
+
+@sp 1
+
+By default all tests are performed (or described with @option{--list})
+silently in the default environment, but the environment, set of tests,
+and verbosity level can be tuned:
+
+@table @samp
+@item @var{variable}=@var{value}
+Set the environment @var{variable} to @var{value}.  Use this rather
+than @samp{FOO=foo ./testsuite} as debugging scripts would then run in a
+different environment.
+
+@cindex @code{AUTOTEST_PATH}
+The variable @code{AUTOTEST_PATH} specifies the testing path to prepend
+to @env{PATH}.  Relative directory names (not starting with
+@samp{/}) are considered to be relative to the top level of the
+package being built.  All directories are made absolute, first
+starting from the top level @emph{build} tree, then from the
+@emph{source} tree.  For instance @samp{./testsuite
+AUTOTEST_PATH=tests:bin} for a @file{/src/foo-1.0} source package built
+in @file{/tmp/foo} results in @samp{/tmp/foo/tests:/tmp/foo/bin} and
+then @samp{/src/foo-1.0/tests:/src/foo-1.0/bin} being prepended to
+@env{PATH}.
+
+@item @var{number}
+@itemx @var{number}-@var{number}
+@itemx @var{number}-
+@itemx -@var{number}
+Add the corresponding test groups, with obvious semantics, to the
+selection.
+
+@item --keywords=@var{keywords}
+@itemx -k @var{keywords}
+Add to the selection the test groups with title or keywords (arguments
+to @code{AT_SETUP} or @code{AT_KEYWORDS}) that match @emph{all} keywords
+of the comma separated list @var{keywords}, case-insensitively.  Use
+@samp{!} immediately before the keyword to invert the selection for this
+keyword.  By default, the keywords match whole words; enclose them in
+@samp{.*} to also match parts of words.
+
+For example, running
+
+@example
+@kbd{./testsuite -k 'autoupdate,.*FUNC.*'}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+selects all tests tagged @samp{autoupdate} @emph{and} with tags
+containing @samp{FUNC} (as in @samp{AC_CHECK_FUNC}, @samp{AC_FUNC_ALLOCA},
+etc.), while
+
+@example
+@kbd{./testsuite -k '!autoupdate' -k '.*FUNC.*'}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+selects all tests not tagged @samp{autoupdate} @emph{or} with tags
+containing @samp{FUNC}.
+
+@item --errexit
+@itemx -e
+If any test fails, immediately abort testing.  This implies
+@option{--debug}: post test group clean up, and top-level logging
+are inhibited.  This option is meant for the full test
+suite, it is not really useful for generated debugging scripts.
+If the testsuite is run in parallel mode using @option{--jobs},
+then concurrently running tests will finish before exiting.
+
+@item --verbose
+@itemx -v
+Force more verbosity in the detailed output of what is being done.  This
+is the default for debugging scripts.
+
+@item --color
+@itemx --color@r{[}=never@r{|}auto@r{|}always@r{]}
+Enable colored test results.  Without an argument, or with @samp{always},
+test results will be colored.  With @samp{never}, color mode is turned
+off.  Otherwise, if either the macro @code{AT_COLOR_TESTS} is used by
+the testsuite author, or the argument @samp{auto} is given, then test
+results are colored if standard output is connected to a terminal.
+
+@item --debug
+@itemx -d
+Do not remove the files after a test group was performed---but they are
+still removed @emph{before}, therefore using this option is sane when
+running several test groups.  Create debugging scripts.  Do not
+overwrite the top-level
+log (in order to preserve a supposedly existing full log file).  This is
+the default for debugging scripts, but it can also be useful to debug
+the testsuite itself.
+
+@item --recheck
+Add to the selection all test groups that failed or passed unexpectedly
+during the last non-debugging test run.
+
+@item --trace
+@itemx -x
+Trigger shell tracing of the test groups.
+@end table
+
+Besides these options accepted by every Autotest testsuite, the
+testsuite author might have added package-specific options
+via the @code{AT_ARG_OPTION} and @code{AT_ARG_OPTION_ARG} macros
+(@pxref{Writing Testsuites}); refer to @command{testsuite --help} and
+the package documentation for details.

+@node Making testsuite Scripts
+@section Making @command{testsuite} Scripts
+
+For putting Autotest into movement, you need some configuration and
+makefile machinery.  We recommend, at least if your package uses deep or
+shallow hierarchies, that you use @file{tests/} as the name of the
+directory holding all your tests and their makefile.  Here is a
+check list of things to do.
+
+@itemize @minus
+
+@item
+@cindex @file{package.m4}

+@atindex{PACKAGE_NAME}
+@atindex{PACKAGE_TARNAME}
+@atindex{PACKAGE_VERSION}
+@atindex{PACKAGE_URL}
+Make sure to create the file @file{package.m4}, which defines the
+identity of the package.  It must define @code{AT_PACKAGE_STRING}, the
+full signature of the package, and @code{AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT}, the
+address to which bug reports should be sent.  For sake of completeness,
+we suggest that you also define @code{AT_PACKAGE_NAME},
+@code{AT_PACKAGE_TARNAME}, @code{AT_PACKAGE_VERSION}, and
+@code{AT_PACKAGE_URL}.
+@xref{Initializing configure}, for a description of these variables.
+Be sure to distribute @file{package.m4} and to put it into the source
+hierarchy: the test suite ought to be shipped!  See below for an example
+@file{Makefile} excerpt.
+
+@item
+Invoke @code{AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR}.
+
+@defmac AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR (@var{directory}, @dvar{test-path, directory})
+@acindex{CONFIG_TESTDIR}
+An Autotest test suite is to be configured in @var{directory}.  This
+macro causes @file{@var{directory}/atconfig} to be created by
+@command{config.status} and sets the default @code{AUTOTEST_PATH} to
+@var{test-path} (@pxref{testsuite Invocation}).
+@end defmac
+
+@item
+Still within @file{configure.ac}, as appropriate, ensure that some
+@code{AC_CONFIG_FILES} command includes substitution for
+@file{tests/atlocal}.
+
+@item
+The appropriate @file{Makefile} should be modified so the validation in
+your package is triggered by @samp{make check}.  An example is provided
+below.
+@end itemize
+
+With Automake, here is a minimal example for inclusion in
+@file{tests/Makefile.am}, in order to link @samp{make check} with a
+validation suite.
+
+@example
+# The `:;' works around a Bash 3.2 bug when the output is not writable.

+        $(AUTOTEST) -I '$(srcdir)' -o $@@.tmp $@@.at
+        mv $@@.tmp $@@
+@end example
+
+Note that the built testsuite is distributed; this is necessary because
+users might not have Autoconf installed, and thus would not be able to
+rebuild it.  Likewise, the use of @file{missing} provides the user with
+a nicer error message if they modify a source file to the testsuite, and
+accidentally trigger the rebuild rules.
+
+You might want to list explicitly the dependencies, i.e., the list of
+the files @file{testsuite.at} includes.
+
+If you don't use Automake, you should include the above example in
+@file{tests/@/Makefile.in}, along with additional lines inspired from
+the following:
+
+@example
+subdir = tests
+PACKAGE_NAME = @@PACKAGE_NAME@@
+PACKAGE_TARNAME = @@PACKAGE_TARNAME@@
+PACKAGE_VERSION = @@PACKAGE_VERSION@@
+PACKAGE_STRING = @@PACKAGE_STRING@@
+PACKAGE_BUGREPORT = @@PACKAGE_BUGREPORT@@
+PACKAGE_URL = @@PACKAGE_URL@@
+
+atconfig: $(top_builddir)/config.status

+           $(SHELL) ./config.status $(subdir)/$@@
+
+atlocal: $(srcdir)/atlocal.in $(top_builddir)/config.status
+        cd $(top_builddir) && \
+           $(SHELL) ./config.status $(subdir)/$@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and manage to have @code{$(EXTRA_DIST)} distributed.  You will also want
+to distribute the file @file{build-aux/@/missing} from the Automake
+project; a copy of this file resides in the Autoconf source tree.
+
+With all this in place, and if you have not initialized @samp{TESTSUITEFLAGS}
+within your makefile, you can fine-tune test suite execution with this
+variable, for example:
+
+@example
+make check TESTSUITEFLAGS='-v -d -x 75 -k AC_PROG_CC CFLAGS=-g'

+What are the restrictions on distributing @command{configure}

+@end display
+
+There are no restrictions on how the configuration scripts that Autoconf
+produces may be distributed or used.  In Autoconf version 1, they were
+covered by the GNU General Public License.  We still encourage
+software authors to distribute their work under terms like those of the
+GPL, but doing so is not required to use Autoconf.
+
+Of the other files that might be used with @command{configure},
+@file{config.h.in} is under whatever copyright you use for your
+@file{configure.ac}.  @file{config.sub} and @file{config.guess} have an
+exception to the GPL when they are used with an Autoconf-generated
+@command{configure} script, which permits you to distribute them under the
+same terms as the rest of your package.  @file{install-sh} is from the X
+Consortium and is not copyrighted.
+
+@node Why GNU M4
+@section Why Require GNU M4?
+
+@display
+Why does Autoconf require GNU M4?
+@end display
+
+Many M4 implementations have hard-coded limitations on the size and
+number of macros that Autoconf exceeds.  They also lack several
+builtin macros that it would be difficult to get along without in a
+sophisticated application like Autoconf, including:
+
+@example
+m4_builtin
+m4_indir
+m4_bpatsubst
+__file__
+__line__
+@end example
+
+Autoconf requires version 1.4.6 or later of GNU M4.
+
+Since only software maintainers need to use Autoconf, and since GNU
+M4 is simple to configure and install, it seems reasonable to require
+GNU M4 to be installed also.  Many maintainers of GNU and
+other free software already have most of the GNU utilities
+installed, since they prefer them.
+
+@node Bootstrapping
+@section How Can I Bootstrap?
+@cindex Bootstrap
+
+@display
+If Autoconf requires GNU M4 and GNU M4 has an Autoconf
+@command{configure} script, how do I bootstrap?  It seems like a chicken
+and egg problem!
+@end display
+
+This is a misunderstanding.  Although GNU M4 does come with a
+@command{configure} script produced by Autoconf, Autoconf is not required
+in order to run the script and install GNU M4.  Autoconf is only
+required if you want to change the M4 @command{configure} script, which few
+people have to do (mainly its maintainer).
+
+@node Why Not Imake
+@section Why Not Imake?
+@cindex Imake
+
+@display
+Why not use Imake instead of @command{configure} scripts?
+@end display
+
+Several people have written addressing this question, so
+adaptations of their explanations are included here.
+
+The following answer is based on one written by Richard Pixley:
+
+@quotation
+Autoconf generated scripts frequently work on machines that it has
+never been set up to handle before.  That is, it does a good job of
+inferring a configuration for a new system.  Imake cannot do this.
+
+Imake uses a common database of host specific data.  For X11, this makes
+sense because the distribution is made as a collection of tools, by one
+central authority who has control over the database.
+
+GNU tools are not released this way.  Each GNU tool has a
+maintainer; these maintainers are scattered across the world.  Using a
+common database would be a maintenance nightmare.  Autoconf may appear
+to be this kind of database, but in fact it is not.  Instead of listing
+host dependencies, it lists program requirements.
+
+If you view the GNU suite as a collection of native tools, then the
+problems are similar.  But the GNU development tools can be
+configured as cross tools in almost any host+target permutation.  All of
+these configurations can be installed concurrently.  They can even be
+configured to share host independent files across hosts.  Imake doesn't
+address these issues.
+
+Imake templates are a form of standardization.  The GNU coding
+standards address the same issues without necessarily imposing the same
+restrictions.
+@end quotation
+
+
+Here is some further explanation, written by Per Bothner:
+
+@quotation
+One of the advantages of Imake is that it is easy to generate large
+makefiles using the @samp{#include} and macro mechanisms of @command{cpp}.
+However, @code{cpp} is not programmable: it has limited conditional
+facilities, and no looping.  And @code{cpp} cannot inspect its
+environment.
+
+All of these problems are solved by using @code{sh} instead of
+@code{cpp}.  The shell is fully programmable, has macro substitution,
+can execute (or source) other shell scripts, and can inspect its
+environment.
+@end quotation
+
+
+Paul Eggert elaborates more:
+
+@quotation
+With Autoconf, installers need not assume that Imake itself is already
+installed and working well.  This may not seem like much of an advantage
+to people who are accustomed to Imake.  But on many hosts Imake is not
+installed or the default installation is not working well, and requiring
+Imake to install a package hinders the acceptance of that package on
+those hosts.  For example, the Imake template and configuration files
+might not be installed properly on a host, or the Imake build procedure
+might wrongly assume that all source files are in one big directory
+tree, or the Imake configuration might assume one compiler whereas the
+package or the installer needs to use another, or there might be a
+version mismatch between the Imake expected by the package and the Imake
+supported by the host.  These problems are much rarer with Autoconf,
+where each package comes with its own independent configuration
+processor.
+
+Also, Imake often suffers from unexpected interactions between
+@command{make} and the installer's C preprocessor.  The fundamental problem
+here is that the C preprocessor was designed to preprocess C programs,
+not makefiles.  This is much less of a problem with Autoconf,
+which uses the general-purpose preprocessor M4, and where the
+package's author (rather than the installer) does the preprocessing in a
+standard way.
+@end quotation
+
+
+Finally, Mark Eichin notes:
+
+@quotation
+Imake isn't all that extensible, either.  In order to add new features to
+Imake, you need to provide your own project template, and duplicate most
+of the features of the existing one.  This means that for a sophisticated
+project, using the vendor-provided Imake templates fails to provide any
+leverage---since they don't cover anything that your own project needs
+(unless it is an X11 program).
+
+On the other side, though:
+
+The one advantage that Imake has over @command{configure}:
+@file{Imakefile} files tend to be much shorter (likewise, less redundant)
+than @file{Makefile.in} files.  There is a fix to this, however---at least
+for the Kerberos V5 tree, we've modified things to call in common
+@file{post.in} and @file{pre.in} makefile fragments for the
+entire tree.  This means that a lot of common things don't have to be
+duplicated, even though they normally are in @command{configure} setups.

+@node Defining Directories
+@section How Do I @code{#define} Installation Directories?
+
+@display
+My program needs library files, installed in @code{datadir} and

+Do not use @code{AC_DEFINE} but use your makefile to pass the
+actual value of @code{datadir} via compilation flags.
+@xref{Installation Directory Variables}, for the details.

+This solution can be simplified when compiling a program: you may either
+extend the @code{CPPFLAGS}:
+
+@example
+CPPFLAGS = -DDATADIR='"$(datadir)"' @@CPPFLAGS@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If you are using Automake, you should use @code{AM_CPPFLAGS} instead:
+
+@example
+AM_CPPFLAGS = -DDATADIR='"$(datadir)"'
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Alternatively, create a dedicated header file:
+
+@example
+DISTCLEANFILES = myprog-paths.h
+myprog-paths.h: Makefile
+        echo '#define DATADIR "$(datadir)"' >$@@
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The gnulib module @samp{configmake} provides such a header with all the
+standard directory variables defined, @pxref{configmake,,, gnulib, GNU
+Gnulib}.
+
+@item
+Use @code{AC_DEFINE} but have @command{configure} compute the literal
+value of @code{datadir} and others.  Many people have wrapped macros to
+automate this task; for an example, see the macro @code{AC_DEFINE_DIR} from
+the @uref{http://@/www.gnu.org/@/software/@/autoconf-archive/, Autoconf Macro
+Archive}.
+
+This solution does not conform to the GNU Coding Standards.
+
+@item
+Note that all the previous solutions hard wire the absolute name of
+these directories in the executables, which is not a good property.  You
+may try to compute the names relative to @code{prefix}, and try to
+find @code{prefix} at runtime, this way your package is relocatable.

+@node Autom4te Cache
+@section What is @file{autom4te.cache}?
+
+@display
+What is this directory @file{autom4te.cache}?  Can I safely remove it?
+@end display
+
+In the GNU Build System, @file{configure.ac} plays a central
+role and is read by many tools: @command{autoconf} to create
+@file{configure}, @command{autoheader} to create @file{config.h.in},
+@command{automake} to create @file{Makefile.in}, @command{autoscan} to
+check the completeness of @file{configure.ac}, @command{autoreconf} to
+check the GNU Build System components that are used.  To
+``read @file{configure.ac}'' actually means to compile it with M4,
+which can be a long process for complex @file{configure.ac}.
+
+This is why all these tools, instead of running directly M4, invoke
+@command{autom4te} (@pxref{autom4te Invocation}) which, while answering to
+a specific demand, stores additional information in
+@file{autom4te.cache} for future runs.  For instance, if you run
+@command{autoconf}, behind the scenes, @command{autom4te} also
+stores information for the other tools, so that when you invoke
+@command{autoheader} or @command{automake} etc., reprocessing
+@file{configure.ac} is not needed.  The speed up is frequently 30%,
+and is increasing with the size of @file{configure.ac}.
+
+But it is and remains being simply a cache: you can safely remove it.
+
+@sp 1

+Can I permanently get rid of it?
+@end display
+
+The creation of this cache can be disabled from
+@file{~/.autom4te.cfg}, see @ref{Customizing autom4te}, for more
+details.  You should be aware that disabling the cache slows down the
+Autoconf test suite by 40%.  The more GNU Build System
+components are used, the more the cache is useful; for instance
+running @samp{autoreconf -f} on the Core Utilities is twice slower without
+the cache @emph{although @option{--force} implies that the cache is
+not fully exploited}, and eight times slower than without
+@option{--force}.

+Unfortunately, old versions of @code{AC_CHECK_HEADER} and
+@code{AC_CHECK_HEADERS} failed to follow this idea, and called
+the preprocessor, instead of the compiler, to check for headers.  As a
+result, incompatibilities between headers went unnoticed during
+configuration, and maintainers finally had to deal with this issue
+elsewhere.
+
+The transition began with Autoconf 2.56.  As of Autoconf 2.64 both
+checks are performed, and @command{configure} complains loudly if the
+compiler and the preprocessor do not agree.  However, only the compiler
+result is considered.
+
+Consider the following example:
+
+@smallexample
+$ @kbd{cat number.h}
+typedef int number;
+$ @kbd{cat pi.h}
+const number pi = 3;
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+AC_INIT([Example], [1.0], [bug-example@@example.org])
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS([pi.h])
+$ @kbd{autoconf -Wall}

+@node Expanded Before Required
+@section Expanded Before Required
+
+@cindex expanded before required
+Older versions of Autoconf silently built files with incorrect ordering
+between dependent macros if an outer macro first expanded, then later
+indirectly required, an inner macro.  Starting with Autoconf 2.64, this
+situation no longer generates out-of-order code, but results in
+duplicate output and a syntax warning:
+
+@example
+$ @kbd{cat configure.ac}
+@result{}AC_DEFUN([TESTA], [[echo in A
+@result{}if test -n "$SEEN_A" ; then echo duplicate ; fi
+@result{}SEEN_A=:]])
+@result{}AC_DEFUN([TESTB], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTA])[echo in B
+@result{}if test -z "$SEEN_A" ; then echo bug ; fi]])
+@result{}AC_DEFUN([TESTC], [AC_REQUIRE([TESTB])[echo in C]])
+@result{}AC_DEFUN([OUTER], [[echo in OUTER]
+@result{}TESTA
+@result{}TESTC])
+@result{}AC_INIT
+@result{}OUTER
+@result{}AC_OUTPUT
+$ @kbd{autoconf}
+@result{}configure.ac:11: warning: AC_REQUIRE:
+@result{} `TESTA' was expanded before it was required
+@result{}configure.ac:4: TESTB is expanded from...
+@result{}configure.ac:6: TESTC is expanded from...
+@result{}configure.ac:7: OUTER is expanded from...
+@result{}configure.ac:11: the top level
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+To avoid this warning, decide what purpose the macro in question serves.
+If it only needs to be expanded once (for example, if it provides
+initialization text used by later macros), then the simplest fix is to
+change the macro to be declared with @code{AC_DEFUN_ONCE}
+(@pxref{One-Shot Macros}), although this only works in Autoconf 2.64 and
+newer.  A more portable fix is to change all
+instances of direct calls to instead go through @code{AC_REQUIRE}
+(@pxref{Prerequisite Macros}).  If, instead, the macro is parameterized
+by arguments or by the current definition of other macros in the m4
+environment, then the macro should always be directly expanded instead
+of required.
+
+For another case study, consider this example trimmed down from an
+actual package.  Originally, the package contained shell code and
+multiple macro invocations at the top level of @file{configure.ac}:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([@dots{}])])
+foobar=
+AC_PROG_CC
+FOO
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but that was getting complex, so the author wanted to offload some of
+the text into a new macro in another file included via
+@file{aclocal.m4}.  The na@"ive approach merely wraps the text in a new
+macro:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([@dots{}])])
+AC_DEFUN([BAR], [
+foobar=
+AC_PROG_CC
+FOO
+])
+BAR
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+With older versions of Autoconf, the setting of @samp{foobar=} occurs
+before the single compiler check, as the author intended.  But with
+Autoconf 2.64, this issues the ``expanded before it was required''
+warning for @code{AC_PROG_CC}, and outputs two copies of the compiler
+check, one before @samp{foobar=}, and one after.  To understand why this
+is happening, remember that the use of @code{AC_COMPILE_IFELSE} includes
+a call to @code{AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])} under the hood.  According to
+the documented semantics of @code{AC_REQUIRE}, this means that
+@code{AC_PROG_CC} @emph{must} occur before the body of the outermost
+@code{AC_DEFUN}, which in this case is @code{BAR}, thus preceding the
+use of @samp{foobar=}.  The older versions of Autoconf were broken with
+regards to the rules of @code{AC_REQUIRE}, which explains why the code
+changed from one over to two copies of @code{AC_PROG_CC} when upgrading
+autoconf.  In other words, the author was unknowingly relying on a bug
+exploit to get the desired results, and that exploit broke once the bug
+was fixed.
+
+So, what recourse does the author have, to restore their intended
+semantics of setting @samp{foobar=} prior to a single compiler check,
+regardless of whether Autoconf 2.63 or 2.64 is used?  One idea is to
+remember that only @code{AC_DEFUN} is impacted by @code{AC_REQUIRE};
+there is always the possibility of using the lower-level
+@code{m4_define}:
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([@dots{}])])
+m4_define([BAR], [
+foobar=
+AC_PROG_CC
+FOO
+])
+BAR
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This works great if everything is in the same file.  However, it does
+not help in the case where the author wants to have @command{aclocal}
+find the definition of @code{BAR} from its own file, since
+@command{aclocal} requires the use of @code{AC_DEFUN}.  In this case, a
+better fix is to recognize that if @code{BAR} also uses
+@code{AC_REQUIRE}, then there will no longer be direct expansion prior
+to a subsequent require.  Then, by creating yet another helper macro,
+the author can once again guarantee a single invocation of
+@code{AC_PROG_CC}, which will still occur after @code{foobar=}.  The
+author can also use @code{AC_BEFORE} to make sure no other macro
+appearing before @code{BAR} has triggered an unwanted expansion of
+@code{AC_PROG_CC}.
+
+@example
+AC_DEFUN([FOO], [AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([@dots{}])])
+AC_DEFUN([BEFORE_CC], [
+foobar=
+])
+AC_DEFUN([BAR], [
+AC_BEFORE([$0], [AC_PROG_CC])dnl
+AC_REQUIRE([BEFORE_CC])dnl
+AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])dnl
+FOO
+])
+BAR

+@node Debugging
+@section Debugging @command{configure} scripts
+
+While in general, @command{configure} scripts generated by Autoconf
+strive to be fairly portable to various systems, compilers, shells, and
+other tools, it may still be necessary to debug a failing test, broken
+script or makefile, or fix or override an incomplete, faulty, or erroneous
+test, especially during macro development.  Failures can occur at all levels,
+in M4 syntax or semantics, shell script issues, or due to bugs in the
+test or the tools invoked by @command{configure}.  Together with the
+rather arcane error message that @command{m4} and @command{make} may
+produce when their input contains syntax errors, this can make debugging
+rather painful.
+
+Nevertheless, here is a list of hints and strategies that may help:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+When @command{autoconf} fails, common causes for error include:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+mismatched or unbalanced parentheses or braces (@pxref{Balancing
+Parentheses}),
+
+@item under- or overquoted macro arguments (@pxref{Autoconf
+Language}, @pxref{Quoting and Parameters}, @pxref{Quotation and Nested
+Macros}),
+
+@item spaces between macro name and opening parenthesis (@pxref{Autoconf
+Language}).
+@end itemize
+
+Typically, it helps to go back to the last working version of the input
+and compare the differences for each of these errors.  Another
+possibility is to sprinkle pairs of @code{m4_traceon} and
+@code{m4_traceoff} judiciously in the code, either without a parameter
+or listing some macro names and watch @command{m4} expand its input
+verbosely (@pxref{Debugging via autom4te}).
+
+@item
+Sometimes @command{autoconf} succeeds but the generated
+@command{configure} script has invalid shell syntax.  You can detect this
+case by running @samp{bash -n configure} or @samp{sh -n configure}.
+If this command fails, the same tips apply, as if @command{autoconf} had
+failed.
+
+@item
+Debugging @command{configure} script execution may be done by sprinkling
+pairs of @code{set -x} and @code{set +x} into the shell script before
+and after the region that contains a bug.  Running the whole script with
+@samp{@var{shell} -vx ./configure 2>&1 | tee @var{log-file}} with a decent
+@var{shell} may work, but produces lots of output.  Here, it can help to
+search for markers like @samp{checking for} a particular test in the
+@var{log-file}.
+
+@item
+Alternatively, you might use a shell with debugging capabilities like
+@uref{http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/, bashdb}.
+
+@item
+When @command{configure} tests produce invalid results for your system,
+it may be necessary to override them:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+For programs, tools or libraries variables, preprocessor, compiler, or
+linker flags, it is often sufficient to override them at @command{make}
+run time with some care (@pxref{Macros and Submakes}).  Since this
+normally won't cause @command{configure} to be run again with these
+changed settings, it may fail if the changed variable would have caused
+different test results from @command{configure}, so this may work only
+for simple differences.
+
+@item
+Most tests which produce their result in a substituted variable allow to
+override the test by setting the variable on the @command{configure}
+command line (@pxref{Compilers and Options}, @pxref{Defining Variables},
+@pxref{Particular Systems}).
+
+@item
+Many tests store their result in a cache variable (@pxref{Caching
+Results}).  This lets you override them either on the
+@command{configure} command line as above, or through a primed cache or
+site file (@pxref{Cache Files}, @pxref{Site Defaults}).  The name of a
+cache variable is documented with a test macro or may be inferred from
+@ref{Cache Variable Names}; the precise semantics of undocumented
+variables are often internal details, subject to change.
+@end itemize
+
+@item
+Alternatively, @command{configure} may produce invalid results because
+of uncaught programming errors, in your package or in an upstream
+library package.  For example, when @code{AC_CHECK_LIB} fails to find a
+library with a specified function, always check @file{config.log}.  This
+will reveal the exact error that produced the failing result: the
+library linked by @code{AC_CHECK_LIB} probably has a fatal bug.
+@end itemize
+
+Conversely, as macro author, you can make it easier for users of your
+macro:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+by minimizing dependencies between tests and between test results as far
+as possible,
+
+@item
+by using @command{make} variables to factorize and allow
+override of settings at @command{make} run time,
+
+@item
+by honoring the GNU Coding Standards and not overriding flags
+reserved for the user except temporarily during @command{configure}
+tests,
+
+@item
+by not requiring users of your macro to use the cache variables.
+Instead, expose the result of the test via @var{run-if-true} and
+@var{run-if-false} parameters.  If the result is not a boolean,
+then provide it through documented shell variables.

+
+In June 1991 I was maintaining many of the GNU utilities for the
+Free Software Foundation.  As they were ported to more platforms and
+more programs were added, the number of @option{-D} options that users
+had to select in the makefile (around 20) became burdensome.
+Especially for me---I had to test each new release on a bunch of
+different systems.  So I wrote a little shell script to guess some of
+the correct settings for the fileutils package, and released it as part
+of fileutils 2.0.  That @command{configure} script worked well enough that
+the next month I adapted it (by hand) to create similar @command{configure}
+scripts for several other GNU utilities packages.  Brian Berliner
+also adapted one of my scripts for his CVS revision control system.
+
+Later that summer, I learned that Richard Stallman and Richard Pixley
+were developing similar scripts to use in the GNU compiler tools;
+so I adapted my @command{configure} scripts to support their evolving
+interface: using the file name @file{Makefile.in} as the templates;
+adding @samp{+srcdir}, the first option (of many); and creating
+@file{config.status} files.
+
+@node Exodus
+@section Exodus
+
+As I got feedback from users, I incorporated many improvements, using
+Emacs to search and replace, cut and paste, similar changes in each of
+the scripts.  As I adapted more GNU utilities packages to use
+@command{configure} scripts, updating them all by hand became impractical.
+Rich Murphey, the maintainer of the GNU graphics utilities, sent me
+mail saying that the @command{configure} scripts were great, and asking if
+I had a tool for generating them that I could send him.  No, I thought,
+but I should!  So I started to work out how to generate them.  And the
+journey from the slavery of hand-written @command{configure} scripts to the
+abundance and ease of Autoconf began.
+
+Cygnus @command{configure}, which was being developed at around that time,
+is table driven; it is meant to deal mainly with a discrete number of
+system types with a small number of mainly unguessable features (such as
+details of the object file format).  The automatic configuration system
+that Brian Fox had developed for Bash takes a similar approach.  For
+general use, it seems to me a hopeless cause to try to maintain an
+up-to-date database of which features each variant of each operating
+system has.  It's easier and more reliable to check for most features on
+the fly---especially on hybrid systems that people have hacked on
+locally or that have patches from vendors installed.
+
+I considered using an architecture similar to that of Cygnus
+@command{configure}, where there is a single @command{configure} script that
+reads pieces of @file{configure.in} when run.  But I didn't want to have
+to distribute all of the feature tests with every package, so I settled
+on having a different @command{configure} made from each
+@file{configure.in} by a preprocessor.  That approach also offered more
+control and flexibility.
+
+I looked briefly into using the Metaconfig package, by Larry Wall,
+Harlan Stenn, and Raphael Manfredi, but I decided not to for several
+reasons.  The @command{Configure} scripts it produces are interactive,
+which I find quite inconvenient; I didn't like the ways it checked for
+some features (such as library functions); I didn't know that it was
+still being maintained, and the @command{Configure} scripts I had
+seen didn't work on many modern systems (such as System V R4 and NeXT);
+it wasn't flexible in what it could do in response to a feature's
+presence or absence; I found it confusing to learn; and it was too big
+and complex for my needs (I didn't realize then how much Autoconf would
+eventually have to grow).
+
+I considered using Perl to generate my style of @command{configure}
+scripts, but decided that M4 was better suited to the job of simple
+textual substitutions: it gets in the way less, because output is
+implicit.  Plus, everyone already has it.  (Initially I didn't rely on
+the GNU extensions to M4.)  Also, some of my friends at the
+University of Maryland had recently been putting M4 front ends on
+several programs, including @code{tvtwm}, and I was interested in trying
+out a new language.
+
+@node Leviticus
+@section Leviticus
+
+Since my @command{configure} scripts determine the system's capabilities
+automatically, with no interactive user intervention, I decided to call
+the program that generates them Autoconfig.  But with a version number
+tacked on, that name would be too long for old Unix file systems,
+so I shortened it to Autoconf.
+
+In the fall of 1991 I called together a group of fellow questers after
+the Holy Grail of portability (er, that is, alpha testers) to give me
+feedback as I encapsulated pieces of my handwritten scripts in M4 macros
+and continued to add features and improve the techniques used in the
+checks.  Prominent among the testers were Fran@,{c}ois Pinard, who came up
+with the idea of making an Autoconf shell script to run M4
+and check for unresolved macro calls; Richard Pixley, who suggested
+running the compiler instead of searching the file system to find
+include files and symbols, for more accurate results; Karl Berry, who
+got Autoconf to configure @TeX{} and added the macro index to the
+documentation; and Ian Lance Taylor, who added support for creating a C
+header file as an alternative to putting @option{-D} options in a
+makefile, so he could use Autoconf for his UUCP package.
+The alpha testers cheerfully adjusted their files again and again as the
+names and calling conventions of the Autoconf macros changed from
+release to release.  They all contributed many specific checks, great
+ideas, and bug fixes.
+
+@node Numbers
+@section Numbers
+
+In July 1992, after months of alpha testing, I released Autoconf 1.0,
+and converted many GNU packages to use it.  I was surprised by how
+positive the reaction to it was.  More people started using it than I
+could keep track of, including people working on software that wasn't
+part of the GNU Project (such as TCL, FSP, and Kerberos V5).
+Autoconf continued to improve rapidly, as many people using the
+@command{configure} scripts reported problems they encountered.
+
+Autoconf turned out to be a good torture test for M4 implementations.
+Unix M4 started to dump core because of the length of the
+macros that Autoconf defined, and several bugs showed up in GNU
+M4 as well.  Eventually, we realized that we needed to use some
+features that only GNU M4 has.  4.3BSD M4, in
+particular, has an impoverished set of builtin macros; the System V
+version is better, but still doesn't provide everything we need.
+
+More development occurred as people put Autoconf under more stresses
+(and to uses I hadn't anticipated).  Karl Berry added checks for X11.
+david zuhn contributed C++ support.  Fran@,{c}ois Pinard made it diagnose
+invalid arguments.  Jim Blandy bravely coerced it into configuring
+GNU Emacs, laying the groundwork for several later improvements.
+Roland McGrath got it to configure the GNU C Library, wrote the
+@command{autoheader} script to automate the creation of C header file
+templates, and added a @option{--verbose} option to @command{configure}.
+Noah Friedman added the @option{--autoconf-dir} option and
+@code{AC_MACRODIR} environment variable.  (He also coined the term
+@dfn{autoconfiscate} to mean ``adapt a software package to use
+Autoconf''.)  Roland and Noah improved the quoting protection in
+@code{AC_DEFINE} and fixed many bugs, especially when I got sick of
+dealing with portability problems from February through June, 1993.

+
+A long wish list for major features had accumulated, and the effect of
+several years of patching by various people had left some residual
+cruft.  In April 1994, while working for Cygnus Support, I began a major
+revision of Autoconf.  I added most of the features of the Cygnus
+@command{configure} that Autoconf had lacked, largely by adapting the
+relevant parts of Cygnus @command{configure} with the help of david zuhn
+and Ken Raeburn.  These features include support for using
+@file{config.sub}, @file{config.guess}, @option{--host}, and
+@option{--target}; making links to files; and running @command{configure}
+scripts in subdirectories.  Adding these features enabled Ken to convert
+GNU @code{as}, and Rob Savoye to convert DejaGNU, to using
+Autoconf.
+
+I added more features in response to other peoples' requests.  Many
+people had asked for @command{configure} scripts to share the results of
+the checks between runs, because (particularly when configuring a large
+source tree, like Cygnus does) they were frustratingly slow.  Mike
+Haertel suggested adding site-specific initialization scripts.  People
+distributing software that had to unpack on MS-DOS asked for a way to
+override the @file{.in} extension on the file names, which produced file
+names like @file{config.h.in} containing two dots.  Jim Avera did an
+extensive examination of the problems with quoting in @code{AC_DEFINE}
+and @code{AC_SUBST}; his insights led to significant improvements.
+Richard Stallman asked that compiler output be sent to @file{config.log}
+instead of @file{/dev/null}, to help people debug the Emacs
+@command{configure} script.
+
+I made some other changes because of my dissatisfaction with the quality
+of the program.  I made the messages showing results of the checks less
+ambiguous, always printing a result.  I regularized the names of the
+macros and cleaned up coding style inconsistencies.  I added some
+auxiliary utilities that I had developed to help convert source code
+packages to use Autoconf.  With the help of Fran@,{c}ois Pinard, I made
+the macros not interrupt each others' messages.  (That feature revealed
+some performance bottlenecks in GNU M4, which he hastily
+corrected!)  I reorganized the documentation around problems people want
+to solve.  And I began a test suite, because experience had shown that
+Autoconf has a pronounced tendency to regress when we change it.
+
+Again, several alpha testers gave invaluable feedback, especially
+Fran@,{c}ois Pinard, Jim Meyering, Karl Berry, Rob Savoye, Ken Raeburn,
+and Mark Eichin.
+
+Finally, version 2.0 was ready.  And there was much rejoicing.  (And I
+have free time again.  I think.  Yeah, right.)

+Copyright @copyright{} 2000, 2001, 2002, 2007, 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+@uref{http://fsf.org/}
+
+Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+@end display

+@enumerate 0
+@item
+PREAMBLE
+
+The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+functional and useful document @dfn{free} in the sense of freedom: to
+assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
+Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
+to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
+for modifications made by others.
+
+This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
+works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
+complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+license designed for free software.
+
+We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
+software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
+program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
+software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals;
+it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
+whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
+principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
+
+@item
+APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
+contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
+distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice grants a
+world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
+work under the conditions stated herein.  The ``Document'', below,
+refers to any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a
+licensee, and is addressed as ``you''.  You accept the license if you
+copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
+under copyright law.
+
+A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the
+Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section
+of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
+subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
+directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document is in
+part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
+any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
+connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
+commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
+them.
+
+The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
+are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
+that says that the Document is released under this License.  If a
+section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
+allowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero
+Invariant Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant
+Sections then there are none.
+
+The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed,
+as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
+the Document is released under this License.  A Front-Cover Text may
+be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
+
+A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
+pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
+drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
+for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
+to text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
+format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
+or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
+An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
+of text.  A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.
+
+Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input
+format, SGML or XML using a publicly available
+DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML,
+PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.  Examples
+of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and
+JPG.  Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be
+read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or
+XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are
+not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML,
+PostScript or PDF produced by some word processors for
+output purposes only.
+
+The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
+this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
+formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
+the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
+preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+The ``publisher'' means any person or entity that distributes copies
+of the Document to the public.
+
+A section ``Entitled XYZ'' means a named subunit of the Document whose
+title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
+text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands for a
+specific section name mentioned below, such as ``Acknowledgements'',
+``Dedications'', ``Endorsements'', or ``History''.)  To ``Preserve the Title''
+of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
+section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition.
+
+The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
+states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty
+Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
+License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
+no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+@item
+VERBATIM COPYING
+
+You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
+to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
+conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
+technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
+compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
+number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
+
+You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+you may publicly display copies.
+
+@item
+COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
+printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
+Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
+copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
+Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
+the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
+you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present
+the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
+visible.  You may add other material on the covers in addition.
+Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
+the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
+as verbatim copying in other respects.
+
+If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+pages.
+
+If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
+more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
+copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
+a computer-network location from which the general network-using
+public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
+a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
+If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
+when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
+that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
+Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
+edition to the public.
+
+It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
+them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
+
+@item
+MODIFICATIONS
+
+You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
+the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
+the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
+Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
+and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
+of it.  In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
+
+@enumerate A
+@item
+Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
+from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
+(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
+of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
+if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+
+@item
+List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
+responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
+Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
+unless they release you from this requirement.
+
+@item
+State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+@item
+Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+@item
+Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+@item
+Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
+terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+
+@item
+Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
+and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
+
+@item
+Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+@item
+Preserve the section Entitled ``History'', Preserve its Title, and add
+to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
+publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.  If
+there is no section Entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one
+stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
+given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
+Version as stated in the previous sentence.
+
+@item
+Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
+public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
+the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
+it was based on.  These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
+You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
+least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
+publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+
+@item
+For any section Entitled ``Acknowledgements'' or ``Dedications'', Preserve
+the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the
+substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or
+dedications given therein.
+
+@item
+Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
+or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
+
+@item
+Delete any section Entitled ``Endorsements''.  Such a section
+may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+@item
+Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled ``Endorsements'' or
+to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+
+@item
+Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+@end enumerate
+
+If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
+copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
+list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
+These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
+
+You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
+nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
+been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
+standard.
+
+You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
+passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
+of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
+Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
+through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already
+includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
+by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
+you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
+permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
+
+The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
+give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
+imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+@item
+COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
+License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
+versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
+Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
+list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
+license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
+different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
+adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
+author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
+Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
+Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+
+In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History''
+in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
+``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
+and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''.  You must delete all
+sections Entitled ``Endorsements.''
+
+@item
+COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
+released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
+License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
+the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
+verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
+
+You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
+it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+
+@item
+AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
+and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
+distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright
+resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
+of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
+When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
+apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
+derivative works of the Document.
+
+If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
+the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
+covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
+Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
+aggregate.
+
+@item
+TRANSLATION
+
+Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
+Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
+translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
+the original English version of this License and the original versions
+of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a disagreement between
+the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
+or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
+
+If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
+``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
+its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
+title.
+
+@item
+TERMINATION
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and
+will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+
+However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
+from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
+unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
+terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
+fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
+60 days after the cessation.
+
+Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same material does
+not give you any rights to use it.
+
+@item
+FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
+of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new

+RELICENSING
+
+``Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site'' (or ``MMC Site'') means any
+World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
+provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A
+public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.  A
+``Massive Multiauthor Collaboration'' (or ``MMC'') contained in the
+site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
+site.
+
+``CC-BY-SA'' means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
+license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
+corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
+California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
+published by that same organization.
+
+``Incorporate'' means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
+in part, as part of another Document.
+
+An MMC is ``eligible for relicensing'' if it is licensed under this
+License, and if all works that were first published under this License
+somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole
+or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections,
+and (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008.
+
+The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site
+under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009,

+
+@node Basic Installation
+@section Basic Installation
+
+Briefly, the shell commands @samp{./configure; make; make install}
+should configure, build, and install this package.  The following
+more-detailed instructions are generic; see the @file{README} file for
+instructions specific to this package.
+@ifclear autoconf
+Some packages provide this @file{INSTALL} file but do not implement all
+of the features documented below.  The lack of an optional feature in a
+given package is not necessarily a bug.
+@end ifclear
+More recommendations for GNU packages can be found in
+@ref{Makefile Conventions, , Makefile Conventions, standards,
+GNU Coding Standards}.
+
+The @command{configure} shell script attempts to guess correct values
+for various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
+those values to create a @file{Makefile} in each directory of the
+package.  It may also create one or more @file{.h} files containing
+system-dependent definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script
+@file{config.status} that you can run in the future to recreate the
+current configuration, and a file @file{config.log} containing compiler
+output (useful mainly for debugging @command{configure}).
+
+It can also use an optional file (typically called @file{config.cache}
+and enabled with @option{--cache-file=config.cache} or simply
+@option{-C}) that saves the results of its tests to speed up
+reconfiguring.  Caching is disabled by default to prevent problems with
+accidental use of stale cache files.
+
+If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try to
+figure out how @command{configure} could check whether to do them, and
+mail diffs or instructions to the address given in the @file{README} so
+they can be considered for the next release.  If you are using the
+cache, and at some point @file{config.cache} contains results you don't
+want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
+
+The file @file{configure.ac} (or @file{configure.in}) is used to create
+@file{configure} by a program called @command{autoconf}.  You need
+@file{configure.ac} if you want to change it or regenerate
+@file{configure} using a newer version of @command{autoconf}.
+
+The simplest way to compile this package is:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+@command{cd} to the directory containing the package's source code and type
+@samp{./configure} to configure the package for your system.
+
+Running @command{configure} might take a while.  While running, it prints some
+messages telling which features it is checking for.
+
+@item
+Type @samp{make} to compile the package.
+
+@item
+Optionally, type @samp{make check} to run any self-tests that come with
+the package, generally using the just-built uninstalled binaries.
+
+@item
+Type @samp{make install} to install the programs and any data files and
+documentation.  When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is
+recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular user,
+and only the @samp{make install} phase executed with root privileges.
+
+@item
+Optionally, type @samp{make installcheck} to repeat any self-tests, but
+this time using the binaries in their final installed location.  This
+target does not install anything.  Running this target as a regular
+user, particularly if the prior @samp{make install} required root
+privileges, verifies that the installation completed correctly.
+
+@item
+You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source
+code directory by typing @samp{make clean}.  To also remove the files
+that @command{configure} created (so you can compile the package for a
+different kind of computer), type @samp{make distclean}.  There is also
+a @samp{make maintainer-clean} target, but that is intended mainly for
+the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get all sorts
+of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the
+distribution.
+
+@item
+Often, you can also type @samp{make uninstall} to remove the installed
+files again.  In practice, not all packages have tested that
+uninstallation works correctly, even though it is required by the
+GNU Coding Standards.
+
+@item
+Some packages, particularly those that use Automake, provide @samp{make
+distcheck}, which can by used by developers to test that all other
+targets like @samp{make install} and @samp{make uninstall} work
+correctly.  This target is generally not run by end users.
+@end enumerate
+
+@node Compilers and Options
+@section Compilers and Options
+
+Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that the
+@command{configure} script does not know about.  Run @samp{./configure
+--help} for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
+
+You can give @command{configure} initial values for configuration
+parameters by setting variables in the command line or in the environment.
+Here is an example:
+
+@example
+./configure CC=c99 CFLAGS=-g LIBS=-lposix
+@end example
+
+@xref{Defining Variables}, for more details.
+
+
+@node Multiple Architectures
+@section Compiling For Multiple Architectures
+
+You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
+same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
+own directory.  To do this, you can use GNU @command{make}.
+@command{cd} to the directory where you want the object files and
+executables to go and run the @command{configure} script.
+@command{configure} automatically checks for the source code in the
+directory that @command{configure} is in and in @file{..}.  This is
+known as a @dfn{VPATH} build.
+
+With a non-GNU @command{make},
+it is safer to compile the package for one
+architecture at a time in the source code directory.  After you have
+installed the package for one architecture, use @samp{make distclean}
+before reconfiguring for another architecture.
+
+On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
+executables that work on multiple system types---known as @dfn{fat} or
+@dfn{universal} binaries---by specifying multiple @option{-arch} options
+to the compiler but only a single @option{-arch} option to the
+preprocessor.  Like this:
+
+@example
+./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+            CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
+            CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
+@end example
+
+This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you may
+have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
+using the @command{lipo} tool if you have problems.
+
+@node Installation Names
+@section Installation Names
+
+By default, @samp{make install} installs the package's commands under
+@file{/usr/local/bin}, include files under @file{/usr/local/include}, etc.
+You can specify an
+installation prefix other than @file{/usr/local} by giving
+@command{configure} the option @option{--prefix=@var{prefix}}, where
+@var{prefix} must be an absolute file name.
+
+You can specify separate installation prefixes for architecture-specific
+files and architecture-independent files.  If you pass the option
+@option{--exec-prefix=@var{prefix}} to @command{configure}, the
+package uses @var{prefix} as the prefix for installing programs and
+libraries.  Documentation and other data files still use the
+regular prefix.
+
+In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give options
+like @option{--bindir=@var{dir}} to specify different values for
+particular kinds of files.  Run @samp{configure --help} for a list of
+the directories you can set and what kinds of files go in them.  In
+general, the default for these options is expressed in terms of
+@samp{$@{prefix@}}, so that specifying just @option{--prefix} will
+affect all of the other directory specifications that were not
+explicitly provided.
+
+The most portable way to affect installation locations is to pass the
+correct locations to @command{configure}; however, many packages provide
+one or both of the following shortcuts of passing variable assignments
+to the @samp{make install} command line to change installation locations
+without having to reconfigure or recompile.
+
+The first method involves providing an override variable for each
+affected directory.  For example, @samp{make install
+prefix=/alternate/directory} will choose an alternate location for all
+directory configuration variables that were expressed in terms of
+@samp{$@{prefix@}}.  Any directories that were specified during
+@command{configure}, but not in terms of @samp{$@{prefix@}}, must each be
+overridden at install time for the entire
+installation to be relocated.  The approach of makefile variable
+overrides for each directory variable is required by the GNU
+Coding Standards, and ideally causes no recompilation.  However, some
+platforms have known limitations with the semantics of shared libraries
+that end up requiring recompilation when using this method, particularly
+noticeable in packages that use GNU Libtool.
+
+The second method involves providing the @samp{DESTDIR} variable.  For
+example, @samp{make install DESTDIR=/alternate/directory} will prepend
+@samp{/alternate/directory} before all installation names.  The approach
+of @samp{DESTDIR} overrides is not required by the GNU Coding
+Standards, and does not work on platforms that have drive letters.  On
+the other hand, it does better at avoiding recompilation issues, and
+works well even when some directory options were not specified in terms
+of @samp{$@{prefix@}} at @command{configure} time.
+
+@node Optional Features
+@section Optional Features
+
+If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed with
+an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving @command{configure}
+the option @option{--program-prefix=@var{PREFIX}} or
+@option{--program-suffix=@var{SUFFIX}}.
+
+Some packages pay attention to @option{--enable-@var{feature}} options
+to @command{configure}, where @var{feature} indicates an optional part
+of the package.  They may also pay attention to
+@option{--with-@var{package}} options, where @var{package} is something
+like @samp{gnu-as} or @samp{x} (for the X Window System).  The
+@file{README} should mention any @option{--enable-} and @option{--with-}
+options that the package recognizes.
+
+For packages that use the X Window System, @command{configure} can
+usually find the X include and library files automatically, but if it
+doesn't, you can use the @command{configure} options
+@option{--x-includes=@var{dir}} and @option{--x-libraries=@var{dir}} to
+specify their locations.
+
+Some packages offer the ability to configure how verbose the execution
+of @command{make} will be.  For these packages, running
+@samp{./configure --enable-silent-rules} sets the default to minimal
+output, which can be overridden with @code{make V=1}; while running
+@samp{./configure --disable-silent-rules} sets the default to verbose,
+which can be overridden with @code{make V=0}.
+
+@node Particular Systems
+@section Particular systems
+
+On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible.  If GNU CC is
+not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in order to
+use an ANSI C compiler:
+
+@example
+./configure CC="cc -Ae -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and if that doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of GCC for HP-UX.
+
+HP-UX @command{make} updates targets which have the same time stamps as
+their prerequisites, which makes it generally unusable when shipped
+generated files such as @command{configure} are involved.  Use GNU
+@command{make} instead.
+
+On OSF/1 a.k.a.@: Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot
+parse its @code{<wchar.h>} header file.  The option @option{-nodtk} can be
+used as a workaround.  If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore
+recommended to try
+
+@example
+./configure CC="cc"
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and if that doesn't work, try
+
+@example
+./configure CC="cc -nodtk"
+@end example
+
+On Solaris, don't put @code{/usr/ucb} early in your @env{PATH}.  This
+directory contains several dysfunctional programs; working variants
+of these programs are available in @code{/usr/bin}.  So, if you need
+@code{/usr/ucb} in your @env{PATH}, put it @emph{after} @code{/usr/bin}.
+
+On Haiku, software installed for all users goes in @file{/boot/common},
+not @file{/usr/local}.  It is recommended to use the following options:
+
+@example
+./configure --prefix=/boot/common
+@end example
+
+@node System Type
+@section Specifying the System Type
+
+There may be some features @command{configure} cannot figure out
+automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
+will run on.  Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
+@emph{same} architectures, @command{configure} can figure that out, but
+if it prints a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it
+the @option{--build=@var{type}} option.  @var{type} can either be a
+short name for the system type, such as @samp{sun4}, or a canonical name
+which has the form:
+
+@example
+@var{cpu}-@var{company}-@var{system}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+where @var{system} can have one of these forms:
+
+@example
+@var{os}
+@var{kernel}-@var{os}
+@end example
+
+See the file @file{config.sub} for the possible values of each field.
+If @file{config.sub} isn't included in this package, then this package
+doesn't need to know the machine type.
+
+If you are @emph{building} compiler tools for cross-compiling, you
+should use the option @option{--target=@var{type}} to select the type of
+system they will produce code for.
+
+If you want to @emph{use} a cross compiler, that generates code for a
+platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
+@dfn{host} platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
+eventually be run) with @option{--host=@var{type}}.
+
+@node Sharing Defaults
+@section Sharing Defaults
+
+If you want to set default values for @command{configure} scripts to
+share, you can create a site shell script called @file{config.site} that
+gives default values for variables like @code{CC}, @code{cache_file},
+and @code{prefix}.  @command{configure} looks for
+@file{@var{prefix}/share/config.site} if it exists, then
+@file{@var{prefix}/etc/config.site} if it exists.  Or, you can set the
+@code{CONFIG_SITE} environment variable to the location of the site
+script.  A warning: not all @command{configure} scripts look for a site
+script.
+
+@node Defining Variables
+@section Defining Variables
+
+Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
+environment passed to @command{configure}.  However, some packages may
+run configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
+variables may be lost.  In order to avoid this problem, you should set
+them in the @command{configure} command line, using @samp{VAR=value}.
+For example:
+
+@example
+./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+causes the specified @command{gcc} to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
+overridden in the site shell script).
+
+@noindent
+Unfortunately, this technique does not work for @env{CONFIG_SHELL} due
+to an Autoconf limitation.  Until the limitation is lifted, you can use
+this workaround:
+
+@example
+CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash ./configure CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
+@end example
+
+@node configure Invocation
+@section @command{configure} Invocation
+
+@command{configure} recognizes the following options to control how it
+operates.
+
+@table @option
+@item --help
+@itemx -h
+Print a summary of all of the options to @command{configure}, and exit.
+
+@item --help=short
+@itemx --help=recursive
+Print a summary of the options unique to this package's
+@command{configure}, and exit.  The @code{short} variant lists options
+used only in the top level, while the @code{recursive} variant lists
+options also present in any nested packages.
+
+@item --version
+@itemx -V
+Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the @command{configure}
+script, and exit.
+
+@item --cache-file=@var{file}
+@cindex Cache, enabling
+Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in @var{file},
+traditionally @file{config.cache}.  @var{file} defaults to
+@file{/dev/null} to disable caching.
+
+@item --config-cache
+@itemx -C
+Alias for @option{--cache-file=config.cache}.
+
+@item --quiet
+@itemx --silent
+@itemx -q
+Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To suppress
+all normal output, redirect it to @file{/dev/null} (any error messages
+will still be shown).
+
+@item --srcdir=@var{dir}
+Look for the package's source code in directory @var{dir}.  Usually
+@command{configure} can determine that directory automatically.
+
+@item --prefix=@var{dir}
+Use @var{dir} as the installation prefix.  @ref{Installation Names}
+for more details, including other options available for fine-tuning
+the installation locations.
+
+@item --no-create
+@itemx -n
+Run the configure checks, but stop before creating any output files.
+@end table
+
+@noindent
+@command{configure} also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.
+Run @samp{configure --help} for more details.

+
+@node Makefile Basics
+@section General Conventions for Makefiles
+
+Every Makefile should contain this line:
+
+@example
+SHELL = /bin/sh
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+to avoid trouble on systems where the @code{SHELL} variable might be
+inherited from the environment.  (This is never a problem with GNU
+@code{make}.)
+
+Different @code{make} programs have incompatible suffix lists and
+implicit rules, and this sometimes creates confusion or misbehavior.  So
+it is a good idea to set the suffix list explicitly using only the
+suffixes you need in the particular Makefile, like this:
+
+@example
+.SUFFIXES:
+.SUFFIXES: .c .o
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The first line clears out the suffix list, the second introduces all
+suffixes which may be subject to implicit rules in this Makefile.
+
+Don't assume that @file{.} is in the path for command execution.  When
+you need to run programs that are a part of your package during the
+make, please make sure that it uses @file{./} if the program is built as
+part of the make or @file{$(srcdir)/} if the file is an unchanging part
+of the source code.  Without one of these prefixes, the current search
+path is used.
+
+The distinction between @file{./} (the @dfn{build directory}) and
+@file{$(srcdir)/} (the @dfn{source directory}) is important because
+users can build in a separate directory using the @samp{--srcdir} option
+to @file{configure}.  A rule of the form:
+
+@smallexample
+foo.1 : foo.man sedscript
+        sed -f sedscript foo.man > foo.1
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+will fail when the build directory is not the source directory, because
+@file{foo.man} and @file{sedscript} are in the source directory.
+
+When using GNU @code{make}, relying on @samp{VPATH} to find the source
+file will work in the case where there is a single dependency file,
+since the @code{make} automatic variable @samp{$<} will represent the
+source file wherever it is.  (Many versions of @code{make} set @samp{$<}
+only in implicit rules.)  A Makefile target like
+
+@smallexample
+foo.o : bar.c
+        $(CC) -I. -I$(srcdir) $(CFLAGS) -c bar.c -o foo.o
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+should instead be written as
+
+@smallexample
+foo.o : bar.c
+        $(CC) -I. -I$(srcdir) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $@@
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+in order to allow @samp{VPATH} to work correctly.  When the target has
+multiple dependencies, using an explicit @samp{$(srcdir)} is the easiest
+way to make the rule work well.  For example, the target above for
+@file{foo.1} is best written as:
+
+@smallexample
+foo.1 : foo.man sedscript
+        sed -f $(srcdir)/sedscript $(srcdir)/foo.man > $@@
+@end smallexample
+
+GNU distributions usually contain some files which are not source
+files---for example, Info files, and the output from Autoconf, Automake,
+Bison or Flex.  Since these files normally appear in the source
+directory, they should always appear in the source directory, not in the
+build directory.  So Makefile rules to update them should put the
+updated files in the source directory.
+
+However, if a file does not appear in the distribution, then the
+Makefile should not put it in the source directory, because building a
+program in ordinary circumstances should not modify the source directory
+in any way.
+
+Try to make the build and installation targets, at least (and all their
+subtargets) work correctly with a parallel @code{make}.
+
+@node Utilities in Makefiles
+@section Utilities in Makefiles
+
+Write the Makefile commands (and any shell scripts, such as
+@code{configure}) to run under @code{sh} (both the traditional Bourne
+shell and the @sc{posix} shell), not @code{csh}.  Don't use any
+special features of @code{ksh} or @code{bash}, or @sc{posix} features
+not widely supported in traditional Bourne @code{sh}.
+
+The @code{configure} script and the Makefile rules for building and
+installation should not use any utilities directly except these:
+
+@c dd find
+@c gunzip gzip md5sum
+@c mkfifo mknod tee uname
+
+@example
+awk cat cmp cp diff echo egrep expr false grep install-info ln ls
+mkdir mv printf pwd rm rmdir sed sleep sort tar test touch tr true
+@end example
+
+Compression programs such as @code{gzip} can be used in the
+@code{dist} rule.
+
+Generally, stick to the widely-supported (usually
+@sc{posix}-specified) options and features of these programs.  For
+example, don't use @samp{mkdir -p}, convenient as it may be, because a
+few systems don't support it at all and with others, it is not safe
+for parallel execution.  For a list of known incompatibilities, see
+@ref{Portable Shell, Portable Shell Programming,, autoconf, Autoconf}.
+
+
+It is a good idea to avoid creating symbolic links in makefiles, since a
+few file systems don't support them.
+
+The Makefile rules for building and installation can also use compilers
+and related programs, but should do so via @code{make} variables so that the
+user can substitute alternatives.  Here are some of the programs we
+mean:
+
+@example
+ar bison cc flex install ld ldconfig lex
+make makeinfo ranlib texi2dvi yacc
+@end example
+
+Use the following @code{make} variables to run those programs:
+
+@example
+$(AR) $(BISON) $(CC) $(FLEX) $(INSTALL) $(LD) $(LDCONFIG) $(LEX)
+$(MAKE) $(MAKEINFO) $(RANLIB) $(TEXI2DVI) $(YACC)
+@end example
+
+When you use @code{ranlib} or @code{ldconfig}, you should make sure
+nothing bad happens if the system does not have the program in question.
+Arrange to ignore an error from that command, and print a message before
+the command to tell the user that failure of this command does not mean
+a problem.  (The Autoconf @samp{AC_PROG_RANLIB} macro can help with
+this.)
+
+If you use symbolic links, you should implement a fallback for systems
+that don't have symbolic links.
+
+Additional utilities that can be used via Make variables are:
+
+@example
+chgrp chmod chown mknod
+@end example
+
+It is ok to use other utilities in Makefile portions (or scripts)
+intended only for particular systems where you know those utilities
+exist.
+
+@node Command Variables
+@section Variables for Specifying Commands
+
+Makefiles should provide variables for overriding certain commands, options,
+and so on.
+
+In particular, you should run most utility programs via variables.
+Thus, if you use Bison, have a variable named @code{BISON} whose default
+value is set with @samp{BISON = bison}, and refer to it with
+@code{$(BISON)} whenever you need to use Bison.
+
+File management utilities such as @code{ln}, @code{rm}, @code{mv}, and
+so on, need not be referred to through variables in this way, since users
+don't need to replace them with other programs.
+
+Each program-name variable should come with an options variable that is
+used to supply options to the program.  Append @samp{FLAGS} to the
+program-name variable name to get the options variable name---for
+example, @code{BISONFLAGS}.  (The names @code{CFLAGS} for the C
+compiler, @code{YFLAGS} for yacc, and @code{LFLAGS} for lex, are
+exceptions to this rule, but we keep them because they are standard.)
+Use @code{CPPFLAGS} in any compilation command that runs the
+preprocessor, and use @code{LDFLAGS} in any compilation command that
+does linking as well as in any direct use of @code{ld}.
+
+If there are C compiler options that @emph{must} be used for proper
+compilation of certain files, do not include them in @code{CFLAGS}.
+Users expect to be able to specify @code{CFLAGS} freely themselves.
+Instead, arrange to pass the necessary options to the C compiler
+independently of @code{CFLAGS}, by writing them explicitly in the
+compilation commands or by defining an implicit rule, like this:
+
+@smallexample
+CFLAGS = -g
+ALL_CFLAGS = -I. $(CFLAGS)
+.c.o:
+        $(CC) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(ALL_CFLAGS) $<
+@end smallexample
+
+Do include the @samp{-g} option in @code{CFLAGS}, because that is not
+@emph{required} for proper compilation.  You can consider it a default
+that is only recommended.  If the package is set up so that it is
+compiled with GCC by default, then you might as well include @samp{-O}
+in the default value of @code{CFLAGS} as well.
+
+Put @code{CFLAGS} last in the compilation command, after other variables
+containing compiler options, so the user can use @code{CFLAGS} to
+override the others.
+
+@code{CFLAGS} should be used in every invocation of the C compiler,
+both those which do compilation and those which do linking.
+
+Every Makefile should define the variable @code{INSTALL}, which is the
+basic command for installing a file into the system.
+
+Every Makefile should also define the variables @code{INSTALL_PROGRAM}
+and @code{INSTALL_DATA}.  (The default for @code{INSTALL_PROGRAM} should
+be @code{$(INSTALL)}; the default for @code{INSTALL_DATA} should be
+@code{$@{INSTALL@} -m 644}.)  Then it should use those variables as the
+commands for actual installation, for executables and non-executables
+respectively.  Minimal use of these variables is as follows:
+
+@example
+$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo $(bindir)/foo
+$(INSTALL_DATA) libfoo.a $(libdir)/libfoo.a
+@end example
+
+However, it is preferable to support a @code{DESTDIR} prefix on the
+target files, as explained in the next section.
+
+It is acceptable, but not required, to install multiple files in one
+command, with the final argument being a directory, as in:
+
+@example
+$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo bar baz $(bindir)
+@end example
+
+
+@node DESTDIR
+@section @code{DESTDIR}: Support for Staged Installs
+
+@vindex DESTDIR
+@cindex staged installs
+@cindex installations, staged
+
+@code{DESTDIR} is a variable prepended to each installed target file,
+like this:
+
+@example
+$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/foo
+$(INSTALL_DATA) libfoo.a $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/libfoo.a
+@end example
+
+The @code{DESTDIR} variable is specified by the user on the @code{make}
+command line as an absolute file name.  For example:
+
+@example
+make DESTDIR=/tmp/stage install
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+@code{DESTDIR} should be supported only in the @code{install*} and
+@code{uninstall*} targets, as those are the only targets where it is
+useful.
+
+If your installation step would normally install
+@file{/usr/local/bin/foo} and @file{/usr/@/local/@/lib/@/libfoo.a}, then an
+installation invoked as in the example above would install
+@file{/tmp/stage/usr/local/bin/foo} and
+@file{/tmp/stage/usr/local/lib/libfoo.a} instead.
+
+Prepending the variable @code{DESTDIR} to each target in this way
+provides for @dfn{staged installs}, where the installed files are not
+placed directly into their expected location but are instead copied
+into a temporary location (@code{DESTDIR}).  However, installed files
+maintain their relative directory structure and any embedded file names
+will not be modified.
+
+You should not set the value of @code{DESTDIR} in your @file{Makefile}
+at all; then the files are installed into their expected locations by
+default.  Also, specifying @code{DESTDIR} should not change the
+operation of the software in any way, so its value should not be
+included in any file contents.
+
+@code{DESTDIR} support is commonly used in package creation.  It is
+also helpful to users who want to understand what a given package will
+install where, and to allow users who don't normally have permissions
+to install into protected areas to build and install before gaining
+those permissions.  Finally, it can be useful with tools such as
+@code{stow}, where code is installed in one place but made to appear
+to be installed somewhere else using symbolic links or special mount
+operations.  So, we strongly recommend GNU packages support
+@code{DESTDIR}, though it is not an absolute requirement.
+
+
+@node Directory Variables
+@section Variables for Installation Directories
+
+Installation directories should always be named by variables, so it is
+easy to install in a nonstandard place.  The standard names for these
+variables and the values they should have in GNU packages are
+described below.  They are based on a standard file system layout;
+variants of it are used in GNU/Linux and other modern operating
+systems.
+
+Installers are expected to override these values when calling
+@command{make} (e.g., @kbd{make prefix=/usr install} or
+@command{configure} (e.g., @kbd{configure --prefix=/usr}).  GNU
+packages should not try to guess which value should be appropriate for
+these variables on the system they are being installed onto: use the
+default settings specified here so that all GNU packages behave
+identically, allowing the installer to achieve any desired layout.
+
+@cindex directories, creating installation
+@cindex installation directories, creating
+All installation directories, and their parent directories, should be
+created (if necessary) before they are installed into.
+
+These first two variables set the root for the installation.  All the
+other installation directories should be subdirectories of one of
+these two, and nothing should be directly installed into these two
+directories.
+
+@table @code
+@item prefix
+@vindex prefix
+A prefix used in constructing the default values of the variables listed
+below.  The default value of @code{prefix} should be @file{/usr/local}.
+When building the complete GNU system, the prefix will be empty and
+@file{/usr} will be a symbolic link to @file{/}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@prefix@@}.)
+
+Running @samp{make install} with a different value of @code{prefix} from
+the one used to build the program should @emph{not} recompile the
+program.
+
+@item exec_prefix
+@vindex exec_prefix
+A prefix used in constructing the default values of some of the
+variables listed below.  The default value of @code{exec_prefix} should
+be @code{$(prefix)}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@exec_prefix@@}.)
+
+Generally, @code{$(exec_prefix)} is used for directories that contain
+machine-specific files (such as executables and subroutine libraries),
+while @code{$(prefix)} is used directly for other directories.
+
+Running @samp{make install} with a different value of @code{exec_prefix}
+from the one used to build the program should @emph{not} recompile the
+program.
+@end table
+
+Executable programs are installed in one of the following directories.
+
+@table @code
+@item bindir
+@vindex bindir
+The directory for installing executable programs that users can run.
+This should normally be @file{/usr/local/bin}, but write it as
+@file{$(exec_prefix)/bin}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@bindir@@}.)
+
+@item sbindir
+@vindex sbindir
+The directory for installing executable programs that can be run from
+the shell, but are only generally useful to system administrators.  This
+should normally be @file{/usr/local/sbin}, but write it as
+@file{$(exec_prefix)/sbin}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@sbindir@@}.)
+
+@item libexecdir
+@vindex libexecdir
+@comment This paragraph adjusted to avoid overfull hbox --roland 5jul94
+The directory for installing executable programs to be run by other
+programs rather than by users.  This directory should normally be
+@file{/usr/local/libexec}, but write it as @file{$(exec_prefix)/libexec}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@libexecdir@@}.)
+
+The definition of @samp{libexecdir} is the same for all packages, so
+you should install your data in a subdirectory thereof.  Most packages
+install their data under @file{$(libexecdir)/@var{package-name}/},
+possibly within additional subdirectories thereof, such as
+@file{$(libexecdir)/@var{package-name}/@var{machine}/@var{version}}.
+@end table
+
+Data files used by the program during its execution are divided into
+categories in two ways.
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Some files are normally modified by programs; others are never normally
+modified (though users may edit some of these).
+
+@item
+Some files are architecture-independent and can be shared by all
+machines at a site; some are architecture-dependent and can be shared
+only by machines of the same kind and operating system; others may never
+be shared between two machines.
+@end itemize
+
+This makes for six different possibilities.  However, we want to
+discourage the use of architecture-dependent files, aside from object
+files and libraries.  It is much cleaner to make other data files
+architecture-independent, and it is generally not hard.
+
+Here are the variables Makefiles should use to specify directories
+to put these various kinds of files in:
+
+@table @samp
+@item datarootdir
+The root of the directory tree for read-only architecture-independent
+data files.  This should normally be @file{/usr/local/share}, but
+write it as @file{$(prefix)/share}.  (If you are using Autoconf, write
+it as @samp{@@datarootdir@@}.)  @samp{datadir}'s default value is
+based on this variable; so are @samp{infodir}, @samp{mandir}, and
+others.
+
+@item datadir
+The directory for installing idiosyncratic read-only
+architecture-independent data files for this program.  This is usually
+the same place as @samp{datarootdir}, but we use the two separate
+variables so that you can move these program-specific files without
+altering the location for Info files, man pages, etc.
+
+@c raggedright  (not until next Texinfo release)
+This should normally be @file{/usr/local/share}, but write it as
+@file{$(datarootdir)}.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+@samp{@@datadir@@}.)
+@c end raggedright
+
+The definition of @samp{datadir} is the same for all packages, so you
+should install your data in a subdirectory thereof.  Most packages
+install their data under @file{$(datadir)/@var{package-name}/}.
+
+@item sysconfdir
+The directory for installing read-only data files that pertain to a
+single machine--that is to say, files for configuring a host.  Mailer
+and network configuration files, @file{/etc/passwd}, and so forth belong
+here.  All the files in this directory should be ordinary ASCII text
+files.  This directory should normally be @file{/usr/local/etc}, but
+write it as @file{$(prefix)/etc}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@sysconfdir@@}.)
+
+Do not install executables here in this directory (they probably belong
+in @file{$(libexecdir)} or @file{$(sbindir)}).  Also do not install
+files that are modified in the normal course of their use (programs
+whose purpose is to change the configuration of the system excluded).
+Those probably belong in @file{$(localstatedir)}.
+
+@item sharedstatedir
+The directory for installing architecture-independent data files which
+the programs modify while they run.  This should normally be
+@file{/usr/local/com}, but write it as @file{$(prefix)/com}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@sharedstatedir@@}.)
+
+@item localstatedir
+The directory for installing data files which the programs modify while
+they run, and that pertain to one specific machine.  Users should never
+need to modify files in this directory to configure the package's
+operation; put such configuration information in separate files that go
+in @file{$(datadir)} or @file{$(sysconfdir)}.  @file{$(localstatedir)}
+should normally be @file{/usr/local/var}, but write it as
+@file{$(prefix)/var}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@localstatedir@@}.)
+@end table
+
+These variables specify the directory for installing certain specific
+types of files, if your program has them.  Every GNU package should
+have Info files, so every program needs @samp{infodir}, but not all
+need @samp{libdir} or @samp{lispdir}.
+
+@table @samp
+@item includedir
+The directory for installing header files to be included by user
+programs with the C @samp{#include} preprocessor directive.  This
+should normally be @file{/usr/local/include}, but write it as
+@file{$(prefix)/include}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@includedir@@}.)
+
+Most compilers other than GCC do not look for header files in directory
+@file{/usr/local/include}.  So installing the header files this way is
+only useful with GCC.  Sometimes this is not a problem because some
+libraries are only really intended to work with GCC.  But some libraries
+are intended to work with other compilers.  They should install their
+header files in two places, one specified by @code{includedir} and one
+specified by @code{oldincludedir}.
+
+@item oldincludedir
+The directory for installing @samp{#include} header files for use with
+compilers other than GCC.  This should normally be @file{/usr/include}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, you can write it as @samp{@@oldincludedir@@}.)
+
+The Makefile commands should check whether the value of
+@code{oldincludedir} is empty.  If it is, they should not try to use
+it; they should cancel the second installation of the header files.
+
+A package should not replace an existing header in this directory unless
+the header came from the same package.  Thus, if your Foo package
+provides a header file @file{foo.h}, then it should install the header
+file in the @code{oldincludedir} directory if either (1) there is no
+@file{foo.h} there or (2) the @file{foo.h} that exists came from the Foo
+package.
+
+To tell whether @file{foo.h} came from the Foo package, put a magic
+string in the file---part of a comment---and @code{grep} for that string.
+
+@item docdir
+The directory for installing documentation files (other than Info) for
+this package.  By default, it should be
+@file{/usr/local/share/doc/@var{yourpkg}}, but it should be written as
+@file{$(datarootdir)/doc/@var{yourpkg}}.  (If you are using Autoconf,
+write it as @samp{@@docdir@@}.)  The @var{yourpkg} subdirectory, which
+may include a version number, prevents collisions among files with
+common names, such as @file{README}.
+
+@item infodir
+The directory for installing the Info files for this package.  By
+default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/info}, but it should be
+written as @file{$(datarootdir)/info}.  (If you are using Autoconf,
+write it as @samp{@@infodir@@}.)  @code{infodir} is separate from
+@code{docdir} for compatibility with existing practice.
+
+@item htmldir
+@itemx dvidir
+@itemx pdfdir
+@itemx psdir
+Directories for installing documentation files in the particular
+format.  They should all be set to @code{$(docdir)} by default.  (If
+you are using Autoconf, write them as @samp{@@htmldir@@},
+@samp{@@dvidir@@}, etc.)  Packages which supply several translations
+of their documentation should install them in
+@samp{$(htmldir)/}@var{ll}, @samp{$(pdfdir)/}@var{ll}, etc. where
+@var{ll} is a locale abbreviation such as @samp{en} or @samp{pt_BR}.
+
+@item libdir
+The directory for object files and libraries of object code.  Do not
+install executables here, they probably ought to go in @file{$(libexecdir)}
+instead.  The value of @code{libdir} should normally be
+@file{/usr/local/lib}, but write it as @file{$(exec_prefix)/lib}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@libdir@@}.)
+
+@item lispdir
+The directory for installing any Emacs Lisp files in this package.  By
+default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp}, but it
+should be written as @file{$(datarootdir)/emacs/site-lisp}.
+
+If you are using Autoconf, write the default as @samp{@@lispdir@@}.
+In order to make @samp{@@lispdir@@} work, you need the following lines
+in your @file{configure.in} file:
+
+@example
+lispdir='$@{datarootdir@}/emacs/site-lisp'
+AC_SUBST(lispdir)
+@end example
+
+@item localedir
+The directory for installing locale-specific message catalogs for this
+package.  By default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/locale}, but
+it should be written as @file{$(datarootdir)/locale}.  (If you are
+using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@localedir@@}.)  This directory
+usually has a subdirectory per locale.
+@end table
+
+Unix-style man pages are installed in one of the following:
+
+@table @samp
+@item mandir
+The top-level directory for installing the man pages (if any) for this
+package.  It will normally be @file{/usr/local/share/man}, but you
+should write it as @file{$(datarootdir)/man}.  (If you are using
+Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@mandir@@}.)
+
+@item man1dir
+The directory for installing section 1 man pages.  Write it as
+@file{$(mandir)/man1}.
+@item man2dir
+The directory for installing section 2 man pages.  Write it as
+@file{$(mandir)/man2}
+@item @dots{}
+
+@strong{Don't make the primary documentation for any GNU software be a
+man page.  Write a manual in Texinfo instead.  Man pages are just for
+the sake of people running GNU software on Unix, which is a secondary
+application only.}
+
+@item manext
+The file name extension for the installed man page.  This should contain
+a period followed by the appropriate digit; it should normally be @samp{.1}.
+
+@item man1ext
+The file name extension for installed section 1 man pages.
+@item man2ext
+The file name extension for installed section 2 man pages.
+@item @dots{}
+Use these names instead of @samp{manext} if the package needs to install man
+pages in more than one section of the manual.
+@end table
+
+And finally, you should set the following variable:
+
+@table @samp
+@item srcdir
+The directory for the sources being compiled.  The value of this
+variable is normally inserted by the @code{configure} shell script.
+(If you are using Autoconf, use @samp{srcdir = @@srcdir@@}.)
+@end table
+
+For example:
+
+@smallexample
+@c I have changed some of the comments here slightly to fix an overfull
+@c hbox, so the make manual can format correctly. --roland
+# Common prefix for installation directories.
+# NOTE: This directory must exist when you start the install.
+prefix = /usr/local
+datarootdir = $(prefix)/share
+datadir = $(datarootdir)
+exec_prefix = $(prefix)
+# Where to put the executable for the command `gcc'.
+bindir = $(exec_prefix)/bin
+# Where to put the directories used by the compiler.
+libexecdir = $(exec_prefix)/libexec
+# Where to put the Info files.
+infodir = $(datarootdir)/info
+@end smallexample
+
+If your program installs a large number of files into one of the
+standard user-specified directories, it might be useful to group them
+into a subdirectory particular to that program.  If you do this, you
+should write the @code{install} rule to create these subdirectories.
+
+Do not expect the user to include the subdirectory name in the value of
+any of the variables listed above.  The idea of having a uniform set of
+variable names for installation directories is to enable the user to
+specify the exact same values for several different GNU packages.  In
+order for this to be useful, all the packages must be designed so that
+they will work sensibly when the user does so.
+
+At times, not all of these variables may be implemented in the current
+release of Autoconf and/or Automake; but as of Autoconf@tie{}2.60, we
+believe all of them are.  When any are missing, the descriptions here
+serve as specifications for what Autoconf will implement.  As a
+programmer, you can either use a development version of Autoconf or
+avoid using these variables until a stable release is made which
+supports them.
+
+
+@node Standard Targets
+@section Standard Targets for Users
+
+All GNU programs should have the following targets in their Makefiles:
+
+@table @samp
+@item all
+Compile the entire program.  This should be the default target.  This
+target need not rebuild any documentation files; Info files should
+normally be included in the distribution, and DVI (and other
+documentation format) files should be made only when explicitly asked
+for.
+
+By default, the Make rules should compile and link with @samp{-g}, so
+that executable programs have debugging symbols.  Otherwise, you are
+essentially helpless in the face of a crash, and it is often far from
+easy to reproduce with a fresh build.
+
+@item install
+Compile the program and copy the executables, libraries, and so on to
+the file names where they should reside for actual use.  If there is a
+simple test to verify that a program is properly installed, this target
+should run that test.
+
+Do not strip executables when installing them.  This helps eventual
+debugging that may be needed later, and nowadays disk space is cheap
+and dynamic loaders typically ensure debug sections are not loaded during
+normal execution.  Users that need stripped binaries may invoke the
+@code{install-strip} target to do that.
+
+If possible, write the @code{install} target rule so that it does not
+modify anything in the directory where the program was built, provided
+@samp{make all} has just been done.  This is convenient for building the
+program under one user name and installing it under another.
+
+The commands should create all the directories in which files are to be
+installed, if they don't already exist.  This includes the directories
+specified as the values of the variables @code{prefix} and
+@code{exec_prefix}, as well as all subdirectories that are needed.
+One way to do this is by means of an @code{installdirs} target
+as described below.
+
+Use @samp{-} before any command for installing a man page, so that
+@code{make} will ignore any errors.  This is in case there are systems
+that don't have the Unix man page documentation system installed.
+
+The way to install Info files is to copy them into @file{$(infodir)}
+with @code{$(INSTALL_DATA)} (@pxref{Command Variables}), and then run
+the @code{install-info} program if it is present.  @code{install-info}
+is a program that edits the Info @file{dir} file to add or update the
+menu entry for the given Info file; it is part of the Texinfo package.
+
+Here is a sample rule to install an Info file that also tries to
+handle some additional situations, such as @code{install-info} not
+being present.
+
+@comment This example has been carefully formatted for the Make manual.
+@comment Please do not reformat it without talking to bug-make@gnu.org.
+@smallexample
+do-install-info: foo.info installdirs
+        $(NORMAL_INSTALL)
+# Prefer an info file in . to one in srcdir.
+        if test -f foo.info; then d=.; \
+         else d="$(srcdir)"; fi; \
+        $(INSTALL_DATA) $$d/foo.info \
+          "$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/foo.info"
+# Run install-info only if it exists.
+# Use `if' instead of just prepending `-' to the
+# line so we notice real errors from install-info.
+# Use `$(SHELL) -c' because some shells do not
+# fail gracefully when there is an unknown command.
+        $(POST_INSTALL)
+        if $(SHELL) -c 'install-info --version' \
+           >/dev/null 2>&1; then \
+          install-info --dir-file="$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/dir" \
+                       "$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/foo.info"; \
+        else true; fi
+@end smallexample
+
+When writing the @code{install} target, you must classify all the
+commands into three categories: normal ones, @dfn{pre-installation}
+commands and @dfn{post-installation} commands.  @xref{Install Command
+Categories}.
+
+@item install-html
+@itemx install-dvi
+@itemx install-pdf
+@itemx install-ps
+These targets install documentation in formats other than Info;
+they're intended to be called explicitly by the person installing the
+package, if that format is desired.  GNU prefers Info files, so these
+must be installed by the @code{install} target.
+
+When you have many documentation files to install, we recommend that
+you avoid collisions and clutter by arranging for these targets to
+install in subdirectories of the appropriate installation directory,
+such as @code{htmldir}.  As one example, if your package has multiple
+manuals, and you wish to install HTML documentation with many files
+(such as the ``split'' mode output by @code{makeinfo --html}), you'll
+certainly want to use subdirectories, or two nodes with the same name
+in different manuals will overwrite each other.
+
+Please make these @code{install-@var{format}} targets invoke the
+commands for the @var{format} target, for example, by making
+@var{format} a dependency.
+
+@item uninstall
+Delete all the installed files---the copies that the @samp{install}
+and @samp{install-*} targets create.
+
+This rule should not modify the directories where compilation is done,
+only the directories where files are installed.
+
+The uninstallation commands are divided into three categories, just like
+the installation commands.  @xref{Install Command Categories}.
+
+@item install-strip
+Like @code{install}, but strip the executable files while installing
+them.  In simple cases, this target can use the @code{install} target in
+a simple way:
+
+@smallexample
+install-strip:
+        $(MAKE) INSTALL_PROGRAM='$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) -s' \
+                install
+@end smallexample
+
+But if the package installs scripts as well as real executables, the
+@code{install-strip} target can't just refer to the @code{install}
+target; it has to strip the executables but not the scripts.
+
+@code{install-strip} should not strip the executables in the build
+directory which are being copied for installation.  It should only strip
+the copies that are installed.
+
+Normally we do not recommend stripping an executable unless you are sure
+the program has no bugs.  However, it can be reasonable to install a
+stripped executable for actual execution while saving the unstripped
+executable elsewhere in case there is a bug.
+
+@item clean
+Delete all files in the current directory that are normally created by
+building the program.  Also delete files in other directories if they
+are created by this makefile.  However, don't delete the files that
+record the configuration.  Also preserve files that could be made by
+building, but normally aren't because the distribution comes with
+them.  There is no need to delete parent directories that were created
+with @samp{mkdir -p}, since they could have existed anyway.
+
+Delete @file{.dvi} files here if they are not part of the distribution.
+
+@item distclean
+Delete all files in the current directory (or created by this
+makefile) that are created by configuring or building the program.  If
+you have unpacked the source and built the program without creating
+any other files, @samp{make distclean} should leave only the files
+that were in the distribution.  However, there is no need to delete
+parent directories that were created with @samp{mkdir -p}, since they
+could have existed anyway.
+
+@item mostlyclean
+Like @samp{clean}, but may refrain from deleting a few files that people
+normally don't want to recompile.  For example, the @samp{mostlyclean}
+target for GCC does not delete @file{libgcc.a}, because recompiling it
+is rarely necessary and takes a lot of time.
+
+@item maintainer-clean
+Delete almost everything that can be reconstructed with this Makefile.
+This typically includes everything deleted by @code{distclean}, plus
+more: C source files produced by Bison, tags tables, Info files, and
+so on.
+
+The reason we say ``almost everything'' is that running the command
+@samp{make maintainer-clean} should not delete @file{configure} even
+if @file{configure} can be remade using a rule in the Makefile.  More
+generally, @samp{make maintainer-clean} should not delete anything
+that needs to exist in order to run @file{configure} and then begin to
+build the program.  Also, there is no need to delete parent
+directories that were created with @samp{mkdir -p}, since they could
+have existed anyway.  These are the only exceptions;
+@code{maintainer-clean} should delete everything else that can be
+rebuilt.
+
+The @samp{maintainer-clean} target is intended to be used by a maintainer of
+the package, not by ordinary users.  You may need special tools to
+reconstruct some of the files that @samp{make maintainer-clean} deletes.
+Since these files are normally included in the distribution, we don't
+take care to make them easy to reconstruct.  If you find you need to
+unpack the full distribution again, don't blame us.
+
+To help make users aware of this, the commands for the special
+@code{maintainer-clean} target should start with these two:
+
+@smallexample
+@@echo 'This command is intended for maintainers to use; it'
+@@echo 'deletes files that may need special tools to rebuild.'
+@end smallexample
+
+@item TAGS
+Update a tags table for this program.
+@c ADR: how?
+
+@item info
+Generate any Info files needed.  The best way to write the rules is as
+follows:
+
+@smallexample
+info: foo.info
+
+foo.info: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+        $(MAKEINFO) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+You must define the variable @code{MAKEINFO} in the Makefile.  It should
+run the @code{makeinfo} program, which is part of the Texinfo
+distribution.
+
+Normally a GNU distribution comes with Info files, and that means the
+Info files are present in the source directory.  Therefore, the Make
+rule for an info file should update it in the source directory.  When
+users build the package, ordinarily Make will not update the Info files
+because they will already be up to date.
+
+@item dvi
+@itemx html
+@itemx pdf
+@itemx ps
+Generate documentation files in the given format.  These targets
+should always exist, but any or all can be a no-op if the given output
+format cannot be generated.  These targets should not be dependencies
+of the @code{all} target; the user must manually invoke them.
+
+Here's an example rule for generating DVI files from Texinfo:
+
+@smallexample
+dvi: foo.dvi
+
+foo.dvi: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+        $(TEXI2DVI) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+You must define the variable @code{TEXI2DVI} in the Makefile.  It
+should run the program @code{texi2dvi}, which is part of the Texinfo
+distribution.  (@code{texi2dvi} uses @TeX{} to do the real work of
+formatting. @TeX{} is not distributed with Texinfo.)  Alternatively,
+write only the dependencies, and allow GNU @code{make} to provide the
+command.
+
+Here's another example, this one for generating HTML from Texinfo:
+
+@smallexample
+html: foo.html
+
+foo.html: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+        $(TEXI2HTML) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+Again, you would define the variable @code{TEXI2HTML} in the Makefile;
+for example, it might run @code{makeinfo --no-split --html}
+(@command{makeinfo} is part of the Texinfo distribution).
+
+@item dist
+Create a distribution tar file for this program.  The tar file should be
+set up so that the file names in the tar file start with a subdirectory
+name which is the name of the package it is a distribution for.  This
+name can include the version number.
+
+For example, the distribution tar file of GCC version 1.40 unpacks into
+a subdirectory named @file{gcc-1.40}.
+
+The easiest way to do this is to create a subdirectory appropriately
+named, use @code{ln} or @code{cp} to install the proper files in it, and
+then @code{tar} that subdirectory.
+
+Compress the tar file with @code{gzip}.  For example, the actual
+distribution file for GCC version 1.40 is called @file{gcc-1.40.tar.gz}.
+It is ok to support other free compression formats as well.
+
+The @code{dist} target should explicitly depend on all non-source files
+that are in the distribution, to make sure they are up to date in the
+distribution.
+@ifset CODESTD
+@xref{Releases, , Making Releases}.
+@end ifset
+@ifclear CODESTD
+@xref{Releases, , Making Releases, standards, GNU Coding Standards}.
+@end ifclear
+
+@item check
+Perform self-tests (if any).  The user must build the program before
+running the tests, but need not install the program; you should write
+the self-tests so that they work when the program is built but not
+installed.
+@end table
+
+The following targets are suggested as conventional names, for programs
+in which they are useful.
+
+@table @code
+@item installcheck
+Perform installation tests (if any).  The user must build and install
+the program before running the tests.  You should not assume that
+@file{$(bindir)} is in the search path.
+
+@item installdirs
+It's useful to add a target named @samp{installdirs} to create the
+directories where files are installed, and their parent directories.
+There is a script called @file{mkinstalldirs} which is convenient for
+this; you can find it in the Gnulib package.
+You can use a rule like this:
+
+@comment This has been carefully formatted to look decent in the Make manual.
+@comment Please be sure not to make it extend any further to the right.--roland
+@smallexample
+# Make sure all installation directories (e.g. $(bindir))
+# actually exist by making them if necessary.
+installdirs: mkinstalldirs
+        $(srcdir)/mkinstalldirs $(bindir) $(datadir) \
+                                $(libdir) $(infodir) \
+                                $(mandir)
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+or, if you wish to support @env{DESTDIR} (strongly encouraged),
+
+@smallexample
+# Make sure all installation directories (e.g. $(bindir))
+# actually exist by making them if necessary.
+installdirs: mkinstalldirs
+        $(srcdir)/mkinstalldirs \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(bindir) $(DESTDIR)$(datadir) \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(libdir) $(DESTDIR)$(infodir) \
+            $(DESTDIR)$(mandir)
+@end smallexample
+
+This rule should not modify the directories where compilation is done.
+It should do nothing but create installation directories.
+@end table
+
+@node Install Command Categories
+@section Install Command Categories
+
+@cindex pre-installation commands
+@cindex post-installation commands
+When writing the @code{install} target, you must classify all the
+commands into three categories: normal ones, @dfn{pre-installation}
+commands and @dfn{post-installation} commands.
+
+Normal commands move files into their proper places, and set their
+modes.  They may not alter any files except the ones that come entirely
+from the package they belong to.
+
+Pre-installation and post-installation commands may alter other files;
+in particular, they can edit global configuration files or data bases.
+
+Pre-installation commands are typically executed before the normal
+commands, and post-installation commands are typically run after the
+normal commands.
+
+The most common use for a post-installation command is to run
+@code{install-info}.  This cannot be done with a normal command, since
+it alters a file (the Info directory) which does not come entirely and
+solely from the package being installed.  It is a post-installation
+command because it needs to be done after the normal command which
+installs the package's Info files.
+
+Most programs don't need any pre-installation commands, but we have the
+feature just in case it is needed.
+
+To classify the commands in the @code{install} rule into these three
+categories, insert @dfn{category lines} among them.  A category line
+specifies the category for the commands that follow.
+
+A category line consists of a tab and a reference to a special Make
+variable, plus an optional comment at the end.  There are three
+variables you can use, one for each category; the variable name
+specifies the category.  Category lines are no-ops in ordinary execution
+because these three Make variables are normally undefined (and you
+@emph{should not} define them in the makefile).
+
+Here are the three possible category lines, each with a comment that
+explains what it means:
+
+@smallexample
+        $(PRE_INSTALL)     # @r{Pre-install commands follow.}
+        $(POST_INSTALL)    # @r{Post-install commands follow.}
+        $(NORMAL_INSTALL)  # @r{Normal commands follow.}
+@end smallexample
+
+If you don't use a category line at the beginning of the @code{install}
+rule, all the commands are classified as normal until the first category
+line.  If you don't use any category lines, all the commands are
+classified as normal.
+
+These are the category lines for @code{uninstall}:
+
+@smallexample
+        $(PRE_UNINSTALL)     # @r{Pre-uninstall commands follow.}
+        $(POST_UNINSTALL)    # @r{Post-uninstall commands follow.}
+        $(NORMAL_UNINSTALL)  # @r{Normal commands follow.}
+@end smallexample
+
+Typically, a pre-uninstall command would be used for deleting entries
+from the Info directory.
+
+If the @code{install} or @code{uninstall} target has any dependencies
+which act as subroutines of installation, then you should start
+@emph{each} dependency's commands with a category line, and start the
+main target's commands with a category line also.  This way, you can
+ensure that each command is placed in the right category regardless of
+which of the dependencies actually run.
+
+Pre-installation and post-installation commands should not run any
+programs except for these:
+
+@example
+[ basename bash cat chgrp chmod chown cmp cp dd diff echo
+egrep expand expr false fgrep find getopt grep gunzip gzip
+hostname install install-info kill ldconfig ln ls md5sum
+mkdir mkfifo mknod mv printenv pwd rm rmdir sed sort tee
+test touch true uname xargs yes
+@end example
+
+@cindex binary packages
+The reason for distinguishing the commands in this way is for the sake
+of making binary packages.  Typically a binary package contains all the
+executables and other files that need to be installed, and has its own
+method of installing them---so it does not need to run the normal
+installation commands.  But installing the binary package does need to
+execute the pre-installation and post-installation commands.
+
+Programs to build binary packages work by extracting the
+pre-installation and post-installation commands.  Here is one way of
+extracting the pre-installation commands (the @option{-s} option to
+@command{make} is needed to silence messages about entering
+subdirectories):
+
+@smallexample
+make -s -n install -o all \
+      PRE_INSTALL=pre-install \
+      POST_INSTALL=post-install \
+      NORMAL_INSTALL=normal-install \
+  | gawk -f pre-install.awk
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+where the file @file{pre-install.awk} could contain this:
+
+@smallexample
+$0 ~ /^(normal-install|post-install)[ \t]*$/ @{on = 0@}

+1 About the GNU Coding Standards
+********************************
+
+The GNU Coding Standards were written by Richard Stallman and other GNU
+Project volunteers.  Their purpose is to make the GNU system clean,
+consistent, and easy to install.  This document can also be read as a
+guide to writing portable, robust and reliable programs.  It focuses on
+programs written in C, but many of the rules and principles are useful
+even if you write in another programming language.  The rules often
+state reasons for writing in a certain way.
+
+   If you did not obtain this file directly from the GNU project and
+recently, please check for a newer version.  You can get the GNU Coding
+Standards from the GNU web server in many different formats, including
+the Texinfo source, PDF, HTML, DVI, plain text, and more, at:
+`http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/'.
+
+   If you are maintaining an official GNU package, in addition to this
+document, please read and follow the GNU maintainer information (*note
+Contents: (maintain)Top.).
+
+   If you want to receive diffs for every change to these GNU documents,
+join the mailing list `gnustandards-commit@gnu.org', via the web
+interface at
+`http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustandards-commit'.  Archives
+are also available there.
+
+   Please send corrections or suggestions for this document to
+<bug-standards@gnu.org>.  If you make a suggestion, please include a
+suggested new wording for it, to help us consider the suggestion
+efficiently.  We prefer a context diff to the Texinfo source, but if
+that's difficult for you, you can make a context diff for some other
+version of this document, or propose it in any way that makes it clear.
+The source repository for this document can be found at
+`http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnustandards'.
+
+   These standards cover the minimum of what is important when writing a
+GNU package.  Likely, the need for additional standards will come up.
+Sometimes, you might suggest that such standards be added to this
+document.  If you think your standards would be generally useful, please
+do suggest them.
+
+   You should also set standards for your package on many questions not
+addressed or not firmly specified here.  The most important point is to
+be self-consistent--try to stick to the conventions you pick, and try
+to document them as much as possible.  That way, your program will be
+more maintainable by others.
+
+   The GNU Hello program serves as an example of how to follow the GNU
+coding standards for a trivial program.
+`http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/hello.html'.

+
+2.1 Referring to Proprietary Programs
+=====================================
+
+Don't in any circumstances refer to Unix source code for or during your
+work on GNU!  (Or to any other proprietary programs.)
+
+   If you have a vague recollection of the internals of a Unix program,
+this does not absolutely mean you can't write an imitation of it, but
+do try to organize the imitation internally along different lines,
+because this is likely to make the details of the Unix version
+irrelevant and dissimilar to your results.
+
+   For example, Unix utilities were generally optimized to minimize
+memory use; if you go for speed instead, your program will be very
+different.  You could keep the entire input file in memory and scan it
+there instead of using stdio.  Use a smarter algorithm discovered more
+recently than the Unix program.  Eliminate use of temporary files.  Do
+it in one pass instead of two (we did this in the assembler).
+
+   Or, on the contrary, emphasize simplicity instead of speed.  For some
+applications, the speed of today's computers makes simpler algorithms
+adequate.
+
+   Or go for generality.  For example, Unix programs often have static
+tables or fixed-size strings, which make for arbitrary limits; use
+dynamic allocation instead.  Make sure your program handles NULs and
+other funny characters in the input files.  Add a programming language
+for extensibility and write part of the program in that language.
+
+   Or turn some parts of the program into independently usable
+libraries.  Or use a simple garbage collector instead of tracking
+precisely when to free memory, or use a new GNU facility such as
+obstacks.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Contributions,  Next: Trademarks,  Prev: Reading Non-Free Code,  Up: Legal Issues
+
+2.2 Accepting Contributions
+===========================
+
+If the program you are working on is copyrighted by the Free Software
+Foundation, then when someone else sends you a piece of code to add to
+the program, we need legal papers to use it--just as we asked you to
+sign papers initially.  _Each_ person who makes a nontrivial
+contribution to a program must sign some sort of legal papers in order
+for us to have clear title to the program; the main author alone is not
+enough.
+
+   So, before adding in any contributions from other people, please tell
+us, so we can arrange to get the papers.  Then wait until we tell you
+that we have received the signed papers, before you actually use the
+contribution.
+
+   This applies both before you release the program and afterward.  If
+you receive diffs to fix a bug, and they make significant changes, we
+need legal papers for that change.
+
+   This also applies to comments and documentation files.  For copyright
+law, comments and code are just text.  Copyright applies to all kinds of
+text, so we need legal papers for all kinds.
+
+   We know it is frustrating to ask for legal papers; it's frustrating
+for us as well.  But if you don't wait, you are going out on a limb--for
+example, what if the contributor's employer won't sign a disclaimer?
+You might have to take that code out again!
+
+   You don't need papers for changes of a few lines here or there, since
+they are not significant for copyright purposes.  Also, you don't need
+papers if all you get from the suggestion is some ideas, not actual code
+which you use.  For example, if someone sent you one implementation, but
+you write a different implementation of the same idea, you don't need to
+get papers.
+
+   The very worst thing is if you forget to tell us about the other
+contributor.  We could be very embarrassed in court some day as a
+result.
+
+   We have more detailed advice for maintainers of GNU packages.  If you
+have reached the stage of maintaining a GNU program (whether released
+or not), please take a look: *note Legal Matters: (maintain)Legal
+Matters.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Trademarks,  Prev: Contributions,  Up: Legal Issues
+
+2.3 Trademarks
+==============
+
+Please do not include any trademark acknowledgements in GNU software
+packages or documentation.
+
+   Trademark acknowledgements are the statements that such-and-such is a
+trademark of so-and-so.  The GNU Project has no objection to the basic
+idea of trademarks, but these acknowledgements feel like kowtowing, and
+there is no legal requirement for them, so we don't use them.
+
+   What is legally required, as regards other people's trademarks, is to
+avoid using them in ways which a reader might reasonably understand as
+naming or labeling our own programs or activities.  For example, since
+"Objective C" is (or at least was) a trademark, we made sure to say
+that we provide a "compiler for the Objective C language" rather than
+an "Objective C compiler".  The latter would have been meant as a
+shorter way of saying the former, but it does not explicitly state the
+relationship, so it could be misinterpreted as using "Objective C" as a
+label for the compiler rather than for the language.
+
+   Please don't use "win" as an abbreviation for Microsoft Windows in
+GNU software or documentation.  In hacker terminology, calling
+something a "win" is a form of praise.  If you wish to praise Microsoft
+Windows when speaking on your own, by all means do so, but not in GNU
+software.  Usually we write the name "Windows" in full, but when
+brevity is very important (as in file names and sometimes symbol
+names), we abbreviate it to "w".  For instance, the files and functions
+in Emacs that deal with Windows start with `w32'.

+3 General Program Design
+************************

+This chapter discusses some of the issues you should take into account
+when designing your program.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Source Language::             Which languages to use.
+* Compatibility::               Compatibility with other implementations.
+* Using Extensions::            Using non-standard features.

+* Conditional Compilation::     Compiling code only if a conditional is true.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Source Language,  Next: Compatibility,  Up: Design Advice
+
+3.1 Which Languages to Use
+==========================
+
+When you want to use a language that gets compiled and runs at high
+speed, the best language to use is C.  Using another language is like
+using a non-standard feature: it will cause trouble for users.  Even if
+GCC supports the other language, users may find it inconvenient to have
+to install the compiler for that other language in order to build your
+program.  For example, if you write your program in C++, people will
+have to install the GNU C++ compiler in order to compile your program.
+
+   C has one other advantage over C++ and other compiled languages: more
+people know C, so more people will find it easy to read and modify the
+program if it is written in C.
+
+   So in general it is much better to use C, rather than the comparable
+alternatives.
+
+   But there are two exceptions to that conclusion:
+
+   * It is no problem to use another language to write a tool
+     specifically intended for use with that language.  That is because
+     the only people who want to build the tool will be those who have
+     installed the other language anyway.
+
+   * If an application is of interest only to a narrow part of the
+     community, then the question of which language it is written in
+     has less effect on other people, so you may as well please
+     yourself.
+
+   Many programs are designed to be extensible: they include an
+interpreter for a language that is higher level than C.  Often much of
+the program is written in that language, too.  The Emacs editor
+pioneered this technique.
+
+   The standard extensibility interpreter for GNU software is Guile
+(`http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/'), which implements the language
+Scheme (an especially clean and simple dialect of Lisp).  Guile also
+includes bindings for GTK+/GNOME, making it practical to write modern
+GUI functionality within Guile.  We don't reject programs written in
+other "scripting languages" such as Perl and Python, but using Guile is
+very important for the overall consistency of the GNU system.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Compatibility,  Next: Using Extensions,  Prev: Source Language,  Up: Design Advice
+
+3.2 Compatibility with Other Implementations
+============================================
+
+With occasional exceptions, utility programs and libraries for GNU
+should be upward compatible with those in Berkeley Unix, and upward
+compatible with Standard C if Standard C specifies their behavior, and
+upward compatible with POSIX if POSIX specifies their behavior.
+
+   When these standards conflict, it is useful to offer compatibility
+modes for each of them.
+
+   Standard C and POSIX prohibit many kinds of extensions.  Feel free
+to make the extensions anyway, and include a `--ansi', `--posix', or
+`--compatible' option to turn them off.  However, if the extension has
+a significant chance of breaking any real programs or scripts, then it
+is not really upward compatible.  So you should try to redesign its
+interface to make it upward compatible.
+
+   Many GNU programs suppress extensions that conflict with POSIX if the
+environment variable `POSIXLY_CORRECT' is defined (even if it is
+defined with a null value).  Please make your program recognize this
+variable if appropriate.
+
+   When a feature is used only by users (not by programs or command
+files), and it is done poorly in Unix, feel free to replace it
+completely with something totally different and better.  (For example,
+`vi' is replaced with Emacs.)  But it is nice to offer a compatible
+feature as well.  (There is a free `vi' clone, so we offer it.)
+
+   Additional useful features are welcome regardless of whether there
+is any precedent for them.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Using Extensions,  Next: Standard C,  Prev: Compatibility,  Up: Design Advice
+
+3.3 Using Non-standard Features
+===============================
+
+Many GNU facilities that already exist support a number of convenient
+extensions over the comparable Unix facilities.  Whether to use these
+extensions in implementing your program is a difficult question.
+
+   On the one hand, using the extensions can make a cleaner program.
+On the other hand, people will not be able to build the program unless
+the other GNU tools are available.  This might cause the program to
+work on fewer kinds of machines.
+
+   With some extensions, it might be easy to provide both alternatives.
+For example, you can define functions with a "keyword" `INLINE' and
+define that as a macro to expand into either `inline' or nothing,
+depending on the compiler.
+
+   In general, perhaps it is best not to use the extensions if you can
+straightforwardly do without them, but to use the extensions if they
+are a big improvement.
+
+   An exception to this rule are the large, established programs (such
+as Emacs) which run on a great variety of systems.  Using GNU
+extensions in such programs would make many users unhappy, so we don't
+do that.
+
+   Another exception is for programs that are used as part of
+compilation: anything that must be compiled with other compilers in
+order to bootstrap the GNU compilation facilities.  If these require
+the GNU compiler, then no one can compile them without having them
+installed already.  That would be extremely troublesome in certain
+cases.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Standard C,  Next: Conditional Compilation,  Prev: Using Extensions,  Up: Design Advice
+
+3.4 Standard C and Pre-Standard C
+=================================
+
+1989 Standard C is widespread enough now that it is ok to use its
+features in new programs.  There is one exception: do not ever use the
+"trigraph" feature of Standard C.
+
+   1999 Standard C is not widespread yet, so please do not require its
+features in programs.  It is ok to use its features if they are present.
+
+   However, it is easy to support pre-standard compilers in most
+programs, so if you know how to do that, feel free.  If a program you
+are maintaining has such support, you should try to keep it working.
+
+   To support pre-standard C, instead of writing function definitions in
+standard prototype form,
+
+     int
+     foo (int x, int y)
+     ...
+
+write the definition in pre-standard style like this,
+
+     int
+     foo (x, y)
+          int x, y;
+     ...
+
+and use a separate declaration to specify the argument prototype:
+
+     int foo (int, int);
+
+   You need such a declaration anyway, in a header file, to get the
+benefit of prototypes in all the files where the function is called.
+And once you have the declaration, you normally lose nothing by writing
+the function definition in the pre-standard style.
+
+   This technique does not work for integer types narrower than `int'.
+If you think of an argument as being of a type narrower than `int',
+declare it as `int' instead.
+
+   There are a few special cases where this technique is hard to use.
+For example, if a function argument needs to hold the system type
+`dev_t', you run into trouble, because `dev_t' is shorter than `int' on
+some machines; but you cannot use `int' instead, because `dev_t' is
+wider than `int' on some machines.  There is no type you can safely use
+on all machines in a non-standard definition.  The only way to support
+non-standard C and pass such an argument is to check the width of
+`dev_t' using Autoconf and choose the argument type accordingly.  This
+may not be worth the trouble.
+
+   In order to support pre-standard compilers that do not recognize
+prototypes, you may want to use a preprocessor macro like this:
+
+     /* Declare the prototype for a general external function.  */
+     #if defined (__STDC__) || defined (WINDOWSNT)
+     #define P_(proto) proto
+     #else
+     #define P_(proto) ()
+     #endif
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Conditional Compilation,  Prev: Standard C,  Up: Design Advice
+
+3.5 Conditional Compilation
+===========================
+
+When supporting configuration options already known when building your
+program we prefer using `if (... )' over conditional compilation, as in
+the former case the compiler is able to perform more extensive checking
+of all possible code paths.
+
+   For example, please write
+
+       if (HAS_FOO)
+         ...
+       else
+         ...
+
+instead of:
+
+       #ifdef HAS_FOO
+         ...
+       #else
+         ...
+       #endif
+
+   A modern compiler such as GCC will generate exactly the same code in
+both cases, and we have been using similar techniques with good success
+in several projects.  Of course, the former method assumes that
+`HAS_FOO' is defined as either 0 or 1.
+
+   While this is not a silver bullet solving all portability problems,
+and is not always appropriate, following this policy would have saved
+GCC developers many hours, or even days, per year.
+
+   In the case of function-like macros like `REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE' in GCC
+which cannot be simply used in `if (...)' statements, there is an easy
+workaround.  Simply introduce another macro `HAS_REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE' as
+in the following example:
+
+       #ifdef REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE
+       #define HAS_REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE 1
+       #else
+       #define HAS_REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE 0
+       #endif

+
+4.1 Non-GNU Standards
+=====================
+
+The GNU Project regards standards published by other organizations as
+suggestions, not orders.  We consider those standards, but we do not
+"obey" them.  In developing a GNU program, you should implement an
+outside standard's specifications when that makes the GNU system better
+overall in an objective sense.  When it doesn't, you shouldn't.
+
+   In most cases, following published standards is convenient for
+users--it means that their programs or scripts will work more portably.
+For instance, GCC implements nearly all the features of Standard C as
+specified by that standard.  C program developers would be unhappy if
+it did not.  And GNU utilities mostly follow specifications of POSIX.2;
+shell script writers and users would be unhappy if our programs were
+incompatible.
+
+   But we do not follow either of these specifications rigidly, and
+there are specific points on which we decided not to follow them, so as
+to make the GNU system better for users.
+
+   For instance, Standard C says that nearly all extensions to C are
+prohibited.  How silly!  GCC implements many extensions, some of which
+were later adopted as part of the standard.  If you want these
+constructs to give an error message as "required" by the standard, you
+must specify `--pedantic', which was implemented only so that we can
+say "GCC is a 100% implementation of the standard", not because there
+is any reason to actually use it.
+
+   POSIX.2 specifies that `df' and `du' must output sizes by default in
+units of 512 bytes.  What users want is units of 1k, so that is what we
+do by default.  If you want the ridiculous behavior "required" by
+POSIX, you must set the environment variable `POSIXLY_CORRECT' (which
+was originally going to be named `POSIX_ME_HARDER').
+
+   GNU utilities also depart from the letter of the POSIX.2
+specification when they support long-named command-line options, and
+intermixing options with ordinary arguments.  This minor
+incompatibility with POSIX is never a problem in practice, and it is
+very useful.
+
+   In particular, don't reject a new feature, or remove an old one,
+merely because a standard says it is "forbidden" or "deprecated".
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Semantics,  Next: Libraries,  Prev: Non-GNU Standards,  Up: Program Behavior
+
+4.2 Writing Robust Programs
+===========================
+
+Avoid arbitrary limits on the length or number of _any_ data structure,
+including file names, lines, files, and symbols, by allocating all data
+structures dynamically.  In most Unix utilities, "long lines are
+silently truncated".  This is not acceptable in a GNU utility.
+
+   Utilities reading files should not drop NUL characters, or any other
+nonprinting characters _including those with codes above 0177_.  The
+only sensible exceptions would be utilities specifically intended for
+interface to certain types of terminals or printers that can't handle
+those characters.  Whenever possible, try to make programs work
+properly with sequences of bytes that represent multibyte characters;
+UTF-8 is the most important.
+
+   Check every system call for an error return, unless you know you wish
+to ignore errors.  Include the system error text (from `perror',
+`strerror', or equivalent) in _every_ error message resulting from a
+failing system call, as well as the name of the file if any and the
+name of the utility.  Just "cannot open foo.c" or "stat failed" is not
+sufficient.
+
+   Check every call to `malloc' or `realloc' to see if it returned
+zero.  Check `realloc' even if you are making the block smaller; in a
+system that rounds block sizes to a power of 2, `realloc' may get a
+different block if you ask for less space.
+
+   In Unix, `realloc' can destroy the storage block if it returns zero.
+GNU `realloc' does not have this bug: if it fails, the original block
+is unchanged.  Feel free to assume the bug is fixed.  If you wish to
+run your program on Unix, and wish to avoid lossage in this case, you
+can use the GNU `malloc'.
+
+   You must expect `free' to alter the contents of the block that was
+freed.  Anything you want to fetch from the block, you must fetch before
+calling `free'.
+
+   If `malloc' fails in a noninteractive program, make that a fatal
+error.  In an interactive program (one that reads commands from the
+user), it is better to abort the command and return to the command
+reader loop.  This allows the user to kill other processes to free up
+virtual memory, and then try the command again.
+
+   Use `getopt_long' to decode arguments, unless the argument syntax
+makes this unreasonable.
+
+   When static storage is to be written in during program execution, use
+explicit C code to initialize it.  Reserve C initialized declarations
+for data that will not be changed.
+
+   Try to avoid low-level interfaces to obscure Unix data structures
+(such as file directories, utmp, or the layout of kernel memory), since
+these are less likely to work compatibly.  If you need to find all the
+files in a directory, use `readdir' or some other high-level interface.
+These are supported compatibly by GNU.
+
+   The preferred signal handling facilities are the BSD variant of
+`signal', and the POSIX `sigaction' function; the alternative USG
+`signal' interface is an inferior design.
+
+   Nowadays, using the POSIX signal functions may be the easiest way to
+make a program portable.  If you use `signal', then on GNU/Linux
+systems running GNU libc version 1, you should include `bsd/signal.h'
+instead of `signal.h', so as to get BSD behavior.  It is up to you
+whether to support systems where `signal' has only the USG behavior, or
+give up on them.
+
+   In error checks that detect "impossible" conditions, just abort.
+There is usually no point in printing any message.  These checks
+indicate the existence of bugs.  Whoever wants to fix the bugs will have
+to read the source code and run a debugger.  So explain the problem with
+comments in the source.  The relevant data will be in variables, which
+are easy to examine with the debugger, so there is no point moving them
+elsewhere.
+
+   Do not use a count of errors as the exit status for a program.
+_That does not work_, because exit status values are limited to 8 bits
+(0 through 255).  A single run of the program might have 256 errors; if
+you try to return 256 as the exit status, the parent process will see 0
+as the status, and it will appear that the program succeeded.
+
+   If you make temporary files, check the `TMPDIR' environment
+variable; if that variable is defined, use the specified directory
+instead of `/tmp'.
+
+   In addition, be aware that there is a possible security problem when
+creating temporary files in world-writable directories.  In C, you can
+avoid this problem by creating temporary files in this manner:
+
+     fd = open (filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0600);
+
+or by using the `mkstemps' function from Gnulib (*note mkstemps:
+(gnulib)mkstemps.).
+
+   In bash, use `set -C' (long name `noclobber') to avoid this problem.
+In addition, the `mktemp' utility is a more general solution for
+creating temporary files from shell scripts (*note mktemp invocation:
+(coreutils)mktemp invocation.).

+
+4.3 Library Behavior
+====================
+
+Try to make library functions reentrant.  If they need to do dynamic
+storage allocation, at least try to avoid any nonreentrancy aside from
+that of `malloc' itself.
+
+   Here are certain name conventions for libraries, to avoid name
+conflicts.
+
+   Choose a name prefix for the library, more than two characters long.
+All external function and variable names should start with this prefix.
+In addition, there should only be one of these in any given library
+member.  This usually means putting each one in a separate source file.
+
+   An exception can be made when two external symbols are always used
+together, so that no reasonable program could use one without the
+other; then they can both go in the same file.
+
+   External symbols that are not documented entry points for the user
+should have names beginning with `_'.  The `_' should be followed by
+the chosen name prefix for the library, to prevent collisions with
+other libraries.  These can go in the same files with user entry points
+if you like.
+
+   Static functions and variables can be used as you like and need not
+fit any naming convention.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Errors,  Next: User Interfaces,  Prev: Libraries,  Up: Program Behavior
+
+4.4 Formatting Error Messages
+=============================
+
+Error messages from compilers should look like this:
+
+     SOURCEFILE:LINENO: MESSAGE
+
+If you want to mention the column number, use one of these formats:
+
+     SOURCEFILE:LINENO:COLUMN: MESSAGE
+     SOURCEFILE:LINENO.COLUMN: MESSAGE
+
+Line numbers should start from 1 at the beginning of the file, and
+column numbers should start from 1 at the beginning of the line.  (Both
+of these conventions are chosen for compatibility.)  Calculate column
+numbers assuming that space and all ASCII printing characters have
+equal width, and assuming tab stops every 8 columns.  For non-ASCII
+characters, Unicode character widths should be used when in a UTF-8
+locale; GNU libc and GNU gnulib provide suitable `wcwidth' functions.
+
+   The error message can also give both the starting and ending
+positions of the erroneous text.  There are several formats so that you
+can avoid redundant information such as a duplicate line number.  Here
+are the possible formats:
+
+     SOURCEFILE:LINE1.COLUMN1-LINE2.COLUMN2: MESSAGE
+     SOURCEFILE:LINE1.COLUMN1-COLUMN2: MESSAGE
+     SOURCEFILE:LINE1-LINE2: MESSAGE
+
+When an error is spread over several files, you can use this format:
+
+     FILE1:LINE1.COLUMN1-FILE2:LINE2.COLUMN2: MESSAGE
+
+   Error messages from other noninteractive programs should look like
+this:
+
+     PROGRAM:SOURCEFILE:LINENO: MESSAGE
+
+when there is an appropriate source file, or like this:
+
+     PROGRAM: MESSAGE
+
+when there is no relevant source file.
+
+   If you want to mention the column number, use this format:
+
+     PROGRAM:SOURCEFILE:LINENO:COLUMN: MESSAGE
+
+   In an interactive program (one that is reading commands from a
+terminal), it is better not to include the program name in an error
+message.  The place to indicate which program is running is in the
+prompt or with the screen layout.  (When the same program runs with
+input from a source other than a terminal, it is not interactive and
+would do best to print error messages using the noninteractive style.)
+
+   The string MESSAGE should not begin with a capital letter when it
+follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn't the
+beginning of a sentence.  (The sentence conceptually starts at the
+beginning of the line.)  Also, it should not end with a period.
+
+   Error messages from interactive programs, and other messages such as
+usage messages, should start with a capital letter.  But they should not
+end with a period.

+
+4.5 Standards for Interfaces Generally
+======================================
+
+Please don't make the behavior of a utility depend on the name used to
+invoke it.  It is useful sometimes to make a link to a utility with a
+different name, and that should not change what it does.
+
+   Instead, use a run time option or a compilation switch or both to
+select among the alternate behaviors.
+
+   Likewise, please don't make the behavior of the program depend on the
+type of output device it is used with.  Device independence is an
+important principle of the system's design; do not compromise it merely
+to save someone from typing an option now and then.  (Variation in error
+message syntax when using a terminal is ok, because that is a side issue
+that people do not depend on.)
+
+   If you think one behavior is most useful when the output is to a
+terminal, and another is most useful when the output is a file or a
+pipe, then it is usually best to make the default behavior the one that
+is useful with output to a terminal, and have an option for the other
+behavior.
+
+   Compatibility requires certain programs to depend on the type of
+output device.  It would be disastrous if `ls' or `sh' did not do so in
+the way all users expect.  In some of these cases, we supplement the
+program with a preferred alternate version that does not depend on the
+output device type.  For example, we provide a `dir' program much like
+`ls' except that its default output format is always multi-column
+format.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Graphical Interfaces,  Next: Command-Line Interfaces,  Prev: User Interfaces,  Up: Program Behavior
+
+4.6 Standards for Graphical Interfaces
+======================================
+
+When you write a program that provides a graphical user interface,
+please make it work with the X Window System and the GTK+ toolkit
+unless the functionality specifically requires some alternative (for
+example, "displaying jpeg images while in console mode").
+
+   In addition, please provide a command-line interface to control the
+functionality.  (In many cases, the graphical user interface can be a
+separate program which invokes the command-line program.)  This is so
+that the same jobs can be done from scripts.
+
+   Please also consider providing a D-bus interface for use from other
+running programs, such as within GNOME.  (GNOME used to use CORBA for
+this, but that is being phased out.)  In addition, consider providing a
+library interface (for use from C), and perhaps a keyboard-driven
+console interface (for use by users from console mode).  Once you are
+doing the work to provide the functionality and the graphical
+interface, these won't be much extra work.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Command-Line Interfaces,  Next: Dynamic Plug-In Interfaces,  Prev: Graphical Interfaces,  Up: Program Behavior
+
+4.7 Standards for Command Line Interfaces
+=========================================
+
+It is a good idea to follow the POSIX guidelines for the command-line
+options of a program.  The easiest way to do this is to use `getopt' to
+parse them.  Note that the GNU version of `getopt' will normally permit
+options anywhere among the arguments unless the special argument `--'
+is used.  This is not what POSIX specifies; it is a GNU extension.
+
+   Please define long-named options that are equivalent to the
+single-letter Unix-style options.  We hope to make GNU more user
+friendly this way.  This is easy to do with the GNU function
+`getopt_long'.
+
+   One of the advantages of long-named options is that they can be
+consistent from program to program.  For example, users should be able
+to expect the "verbose" option of any GNU program which has one, to be
+spelled precisely `--verbose'.  To achieve this uniformity, look at the
+table of common long-option names when you choose the option names for
+your program (*note Option Table::).
+
+   It is usually a good idea for file names given as ordinary arguments
+to be input files only; any output files would be specified using
+options (preferably `-o' or `--output').  Even if you allow an output
+file name as an ordinary argument for compatibility, try to provide an
+option as another way to specify it.  This will lead to more consistency
+among GNU utilities, and fewer idiosyncrasies for users to remember.
+
+   All programs should support two standard options: `--version' and
+`--help'.  CGI programs should accept these as command-line options,
+and also if given as the `PATH_INFO'; for instance, visiting
+`http://example.org/p.cgi/--help' in a browser should output the same
+information as invoking `p.cgi --help' from the command line.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* --version::       The standard output for --version.
+* --help::          The standard output for --help.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: --version,  Next: --help,  Up: Command-Line Interfaces
+
+4.7.1 `--version'
+-----------------
+
+The standard `--version' option should direct the program to print
+information about its name, version, origin and legal status, all on
+standard output, and then exit successfully.  Other options and
+arguments should be ignored once this is seen, and the program should
+not perform its normal function.
+
+   The first line is meant to be easy for a program to parse; the
+version number proper starts after the last space.  In addition, it
+contains the canonical name for this program, in this format:
+
+     GNU Emacs 19.30
+
+The program's name should be a constant string; _don't_ compute it from
+`argv[0]'.  The idea is to state the standard or canonical name for the
+program, not its file name.  There are other ways to find out the
+precise file name where a command is found in `PATH'.
+
+   If the program is a subsidiary part of a larger package, mention the
+package name in parentheses, like this:
+
+     emacsserver (GNU Emacs) 19.30
+
+If the package has a version number which is different from this
+program's version number, you can mention the package version number
+just before the close-parenthesis.
+
+   If you _need_ to mention the version numbers of libraries which are
+distributed separately from the package which contains this program,
+you can do so by printing an additional line of version info for each
+library you want to mention.  Use the same format for these lines as for
+the first line.
+
+   Please do not mention all of the libraries that the program uses
+"just for completeness"--that would produce a lot of unhelpful clutter.
+Please mention library version numbers only if you find in practice that
+they are very important to you in debugging.
+
+   The following line, after the version number line or lines, should
+be a copyright notice.  If more than one copyright notice is called
+for, put each on a separate line.
+
+   Next should follow a line stating the license, preferably using one
+of abbreviations below, and a brief statement that the program is free
+software, and that users are free to copy and change it.  Also mention
+that there is no warranty, to the extent permitted by law.  See
+recommended wording below.
+
+   It is ok to finish the output with a list of the major authors of the
+program, as a way of giving credit.
+
+   Here's an example of output that follows these rules:
+
+     GNU hello 2.3
+     Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+     License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>
+     This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.
+     There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.
+
+   You should adapt this to your program, of course, filling in the
+proper year, copyright holder, name of program, and the references to
+distribution terms, and changing the rest of the wording as necessary.
+
+   This copyright notice only needs to mention the most recent year in
+which changes were made--there's no need to list the years for previous
+versions' changes.  You don't have to mention the name of the program in
+these notices, if that is inconvenient, since it appeared in the first
+line.  (The rules are different for copyright notices in source files;
+*note Copyright Notices: (maintain)Copyright Notices.)
+
+   Translations of the above lines must preserve the validity of the
+copyright notices (*note Internationalization::).  If the translation's
+character set supports it, the `(C)' should be replaced with the
+copyright symbol, as follows:
+
+   (the official copyright symbol, which is the letter C in a circle);
+
+   Write the word "Copyright" exactly like that, in English.  Do not
+translate it into another language.  International treaties recognize
+the English word "Copyright"; translations into other languages do not
+have legal significance.
+
+   Finally, here is the table of our suggested license abbreviations.
+Any abbreviation can be followed by `vVERSION[+]', meaning that
+particular version, or later versions with the `+', as shown above.
+
+   In the case of exceptions for extra permissions with the GPL, we use
+`/' for a separator; the version number can follow the license
+abbreviation as usual, as in the examples below.

+
+4.7.2 `--help'
+--------------
+
+The standard `--help' option should output brief documentation for how
+to invoke the program, on standard output, then exit successfully.
+Other options and arguments should be ignored once this is seen, and
+the program should not perform its normal function.
+
+   Near the end of the `--help' option's output, please place lines
+giving the email address for bug reports, the package's home page
+(normally <http://www.gnu.org/software/PKG>, and the general page for
+help using GNU programs.  The format should be like this:
+
+     Report bugs to: MAILING-ADDRESS
+     PKG home page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/PKG/>
+     General help using GNU software: <http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/>
+
+   It is ok to mention other appropriate mailing lists and web pages.

+
+4.8 Standards for Dynamic Plug-in Interfaces
+============================================
+
+Another aspect of keeping free programs free is encouraging development
+of free plug-ins, and discouraging development of proprietary plug-ins.
+Many GNU programs will not have anything like plug-ins at all, but
+those that do should follow these practices.
+
+   First, the general plug-in architecture design should closely tie the
+plug-in to the original code, such that the plug-in and the base
+program are parts of one extended program.  For GCC, for example,
+plug-ins receive and modify GCC's internal data structures, and so
+clearly form an extended program with the base GCC.
+
+   Second, you should require plug-in developers to affirm that their
+plug-ins are released under an appropriate license.  This should be
+enforced with a simple programmatic check.  For GCC, again for example,
+a plug-in must define the global symbol `plugin_is_GPL_compatible',
+thus asserting that the plug-in is released under a GPL-compatible
+license (*note Plugins: (gccint)Plugins.).
+
+   By adding this check to your program you are not creating a new legal
+requirement.  The GPL itself requires plug-ins to be free software,
+licensed compatibly.  As long as you have followed the first rule above
+to keep plug-ins closely tied to your original program, the GPL and AGPL
+already require those plug-ins to be released under a compatible
+license.  The symbol definition in the plug-in--or whatever equivalent
+works best in your program--makes it harder for anyone who might
+distribute proprietary plug-ins to legally defend themselves.  If a case
+about this got to court, we can point to that symbol as evidence that
+the plug-in developer understood that the license had this requirement.

+4.10 OID Allocations
+====================
+
+The OID (object identifier) 1.3.6.1.4.1.11591 has been assigned to the
+GNU Project (thanks to Werner Koch).  These are used for SNMP, LDAP,
+X.509 certificates, and so on.  The web site
+`http://www.alvestrand.no/objectid' has a (voluntary) listing of many
+OID assignments.

+
+4.11 Memory Usage
+=================
+
+If a program typically uses just a few meg of memory, don't bother
+making any effort to reduce memory usage.  For example, if it is
+impractical for other reasons to operate on files more than a few meg
+long, it is reasonable to read entire input files into memory to
+operate on them.
+
+   However, for programs such as `cat' or `tail', that can usefully
+operate on very large files, it is important to avoid using a technique
+that would artificially limit the size of files it can handle.  If a
+program works by lines and could be applied to arbitrary user-supplied
+input files, it should keep only a line in memory, because this is not
+very hard and users will want to be able to operate on input files that
+are bigger than will fit in memory all at once.
+
+   If your program creates complicated data structures, just make them
+in memory and give a fatal error if `malloc' returns zero.
+
+   Memory analysis tools such as `valgrind' can be useful, but don't
+complicate a program merely to avoid their false alarms.  For example,
+if memory is used until just before a process exits, don't free it
+simply to silence such a tool.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: File Usage,  Prev: Memory Usage,  Up: Program Behavior
+
+4.12 File Usage
+===============
+
+Programs should be prepared to operate when `/usr' and `/etc' are
+read-only file systems.  Thus, if the program manages log files, lock
+files, backup files, score files, or any other files which are modified
+for internal purposes, these files should not be stored in `/usr' or
+`/etc'.
+
+   There are two exceptions.  `/etc' is used to store system
+configuration information; it is reasonable for a program to modify
+files in `/etc' when its job is to update the system configuration.
+Also, if the user explicitly asks to modify one file in a directory, it
+is reasonable for the program to store other files in the same
+directory.

+
+5.1 Formatting Your Source Code
+===============================
+
+It is important to put the open-brace that starts the body of a C
+function in column one, so that they will start a defun.  Several tools
+look for open-braces in column one to find the beginnings of C
+functions.  These tools will not work on code not formatted that way.
+
+   Avoid putting open-brace, open-parenthesis or open-bracket in column
+one when they are inside a function, so that they won't start a defun.
+The open-brace that starts a `struct' body can go in column one if you
+find it useful to treat that definition as a defun.
+
+   It is also important for function definitions to start the name of
+the function in column one.  This helps people to search for function
+definitions, and may also help certain tools recognize them.  Thus,
+using Standard C syntax, the format is this:
+
+     static char *
+     concat (char *s1, char *s2)
+     {
+       ...
+     }
+
+or, if you want to use traditional C syntax, format the definition like
+this:
+
+     static char *
+     concat (s1, s2)        /* Name starts in column one here */
+          char *s1, *s2;
+     {                     /* Open brace in column one here */
+       ...
+     }
+
+   In Standard C, if the arguments don't fit nicely on one line, split
+it like this:
+
+     int
+     lots_of_args (int an_integer, long a_long, short a_short,
+                   double a_double, float a_float)
+     ...
+
+   For `struct' and `enum' types, likewise put the braces in column
+one, unless the whole contents fits on one line:
+
+     struct foo
+     {
+       int a, b;
+     }
+or
+     struct foo { int a, b; }
+
+   The rest of this section gives our recommendations for other aspects
+of C formatting style, which is also the default style of the `indent'
+program in version 1.2 and newer.  It corresponds to the options
+
+     -nbad -bap -nbc -bbo -bl -bli2 -bls -ncdb -nce -cp1 -cs -di2
+     -ndj -nfc1 -nfca -hnl -i2 -ip5 -lp -pcs -psl -nsc -nsob
+
+   We don't think of these recommendations as requirements, because it
+causes no problems for users if two different programs have different
+formatting styles.
+
+   But whatever style you use, please use it consistently, since a
+mixture of styles within one program tends to look ugly.  If you are
+contributing changes to an existing program, please follow the style of
+that program.
+
+   For the body of the function, our recommended style looks like this:
+
+     if (x < foo (y, z))
+       haha = bar[4] + 5;
+     else
+       {
+         while (z)
+           {
+             haha += foo (z, z);
+             z--;
+           }
+         return ++x + bar ();
+       }
+
+   We find it easier to read a program when it has spaces before the
+open-parentheses and after the commas.  Especially after the commas.
+
+   When you split an expression into multiple lines, split it before an
+operator, not after one.  Here is the right way:
+
+     if (foo_this_is_long && bar > win (x, y, z)
+         && remaining_condition)
+
+   Try to avoid having two operators of different precedence at the same
+level of indentation.  For example, don't write this:
+
+     mode = (inmode[j] == VOIDmode
+             || GET_MODE_SIZE (outmode[j]) > GET_MODE_SIZE (inmode[j])
+             ? outmode[j] : inmode[j]);
+
+   Instead, use extra parentheses so that the indentation shows the
+nesting:
+
+     mode = ((inmode[j] == VOIDmode
+              || (GET_MODE_SIZE (outmode[j]) > GET_MODE_SIZE (inmode[j])))
+             ? outmode[j] : inmode[j]);
+
+   Insert extra parentheses so that Emacs will indent the code properly.
+For example, the following indentation looks nice if you do it by hand,
+
+     v = rup->ru_utime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_utime.tv_usec/1000
+         + rup->ru_stime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_stime.tv_usec/1000;
+
+but Emacs would alter it.  Adding a set of parentheses produces
+something that looks equally nice, and which Emacs will preserve:
+
+     v = (rup->ru_utime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_utime.tv_usec/1000
+          + rup->ru_stime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_stime.tv_usec/1000);
+
+   Format do-while statements like this:
+
+     do
+       {
+         a = foo (a);
+       }
+     while (a > 0);
+
+   Please use formfeed characters (control-L) to divide the program into
+pages at logical places (but not within a function).  It does not matter
+just how long the pages are, since they do not have to fit on a printed
+page.  The formfeeds should appear alone on lines by themselves.
+
+

+
+5.2 Commenting Your Work
+========================
+
+Every program should start with a comment saying briefly what it is for.
+Example: `fmt - filter for simple filling of text'.  This comment
+should be at the top of the source file containing the `main' function
+of the program.
+
+   Also, please write a brief comment at the start of each source file,
+with the file name and a line or two about the overall purpose of the
+file.
+
+   Please write the comments in a GNU program in English, because
+English is the one language that nearly all programmers in all
+countries can read.  If you do not write English well, please write
+comments in English as well as you can, then ask other people to help
+rewrite them.  If you can't write comments in English, please find
+someone to work with you and translate your comments into English.
+
+   Please put a comment on each function saying what the function does,
+what sorts of arguments it gets, and what the possible values of
+arguments mean and are used for.  It is not necessary to duplicate in
+words the meaning of the C argument declarations, if a C type is being
+used in its customary fashion.  If there is anything nonstandard about
+its use (such as an argument of type `char *' which is really the
+address of the second character of a string, not the first), or any
+possible values that would not work the way one would expect (such as,
+that strings containing newlines are not guaranteed to work), be sure
+to say so.
+
+   Also explain the significance of the return value, if there is one.
+
+   Please put two spaces after the end of a sentence in your comments,
+so that the Emacs sentence commands will work.  Also, please write
+complete sentences and capitalize the first word.  If a lower-case
+identifier comes at the beginning of a sentence, don't capitalize it!
+Changing the spelling makes it a different identifier.  If you don't
+like starting a sentence with a lower case letter, write the sentence
+differently (e.g., "The identifier lower-case is ...").
+
+   The comment on a function is much clearer if you use the argument
+names to speak about the argument values.  The variable name itself
+should be lower case, but write it in upper case when you are speaking
+about the value rather than the variable itself.  Thus, "the inode
+number NODE_NUM" rather than "an inode".
+
+   There is usually no purpose in restating the name of the function in
+the comment before it, because readers can see that for themselves.
+There might be an exception when the comment is so long that the
+function itself would be off the bottom of the screen.
+
+   There should be a comment on each static variable as well, like this:
+
+     /* Nonzero means truncate lines in the display;
+        zero means continue them.  */
+     int truncate_lines;
+
+   Every `#endif' should have a comment, except in the case of short
+conditionals (just a few lines) that are not nested.  The comment should
+state the condition of the conditional that is ending, _including its
+sense_.  `#else' should have a comment describing the condition _and
+sense_ of the code that follows.  For example:
+
+     #ifdef foo
+       ...
+     #else /* not foo */
+       ...
+     #endif /* not foo */
+     #ifdef foo
+       ...
+     #endif /* foo */
+
+but, by contrast, write the comments this way for a `#ifndef':
+
+     #ifndef foo
+       ...
+     #else /* foo */
+       ...
+     #endif /* foo */
+     #ifndef foo
+       ...
+     #endif /* not foo */
+

+
+5.3 Clean Use of C Constructs
+=============================
+
+Please explicitly declare the types of all objects.  For example, you
+should explicitly declare all arguments to functions, and you should
+declare functions to return `int' rather than omitting the `int'.
+
+   Some programmers like to use the GCC `-Wall' option, and change the
+code whenever it issues a warning.  If you want to do this, then do.
+Other programmers prefer not to use `-Wall', because it gives warnings
+for valid and legitimate code which they do not want to change.  If you
+want to do this, then do.  The compiler should be your servant, not
+your master.
+
+   Don't make the program ugly just to placate static analysis tools
+such as `lint', `clang', and GCC with extra warnings options such as
+`-Wconversion' and `-Wundef'.  These tools can help find bugs and
+unclear code, but they can also generate so many false alarms that it
+hurts readability to silence them with unnecessary casts, wrappers, and
+other complications.  For example, please don't insert casts to `void'
+or calls to do-nothing functions merely to pacify a lint checker.
+
+   Declarations of external functions and functions to appear later in
+the source file should all go in one place near the beginning of the
+file (somewhere before the first function definition in the file), or
+else should go in a header file.  Don't put `extern' declarations inside
+functions.
+
+   It used to be common practice to use the same local variables (with
+names like `tem') over and over for different values within one
+function.  Instead of doing this, it is better to declare a separate
+local variable for each distinct purpose, and give it a name which is
+meaningful.  This not only makes programs easier to understand, it also
+facilitates optimization by good compilers.  You can also move the
+declaration of each local variable into the smallest scope that includes
+all its uses.  This makes the program even cleaner.
+
+   Don't use local variables or parameters that shadow global
+identifiers.  GCC's `-Wshadow' option can detect this problem.
+
+   Don't declare multiple variables in one declaration that spans lines.
+Start a new declaration on each line, instead.  For example, instead of
+this:
+
+     int    foo,
+            bar;
+
+write either this:
+
+     int foo, bar;
+
+or this:
+
+     int foo;
+     int bar;
+
+(If they are global variables, each should have a comment preceding it
+anyway.)
+
+   When you have an `if'-`else' statement nested in another `if'
+statement, always put braces around the `if'-`else'.  Thus, never write
+like this:
+
+     if (foo)
+       if (bar)
+         win ();
+       else
+         lose ();
+
+always like this:
+
+     if (foo)
+       {
+         if (bar)
+           win ();
+         else
+           lose ();
+       }
+
+   If you have an `if' statement nested inside of an `else' statement,
+either write `else if' on one line, like this,
+
+     if (foo)
+       ...
+     else if (bar)
+       ...
+
+with its `then'-part indented like the preceding `then'-part, or write
+the nested `if' within braces like this:
+
+     if (foo)
+       ...
+     else
+       {
+         if (bar)
+           ...
+       }
+
+   Don't declare both a structure tag and variables or typedefs in the
+same declaration.  Instead, declare the structure tag separately and
+then use it to declare the variables or typedefs.
+
+   Try to avoid assignments inside `if'-conditions (assignments inside
+`while'-conditions are ok).  For example, don't write this:
+
+     if ((foo = (char *) malloc (sizeof *foo)) == 0)
+       fatal ("virtual memory exhausted");
+
+instead, write this:
+
+     foo = (char *) malloc (sizeof *foo);
+     if (foo == 0)
+       fatal ("virtual memory exhausted");
+
+   This example uses zero without a cast as a null pointer constant.
+This is perfectly fine, except that a cast is needed when calling a
+varargs function or when using `sizeof'.

+
+5.4 Naming Variables, Functions, and Files
+==========================================
+
+The names of global variables and functions in a program serve as
+comments of a sort.  So don't choose terse names--instead, look for
+names that give useful information about the meaning of the variable or
+function.  In a GNU program, names should be English, like other
+comments.
+
+   Local variable names can be shorter, because they are used only
+within one context, where (presumably) comments explain their purpose.
+
+   Try to limit your use of abbreviations in symbol names.  It is ok to
+make a few abbreviations, explain what they mean, and then use them
+frequently, but don't use lots of obscure abbreviations.
+
+   Please use underscores to separate words in a name, so that the Emacs
+word commands can be useful within them.  Stick to lower case; reserve
+upper case for macros and `enum' constants, and for name-prefixes that
+follow a uniform convention.
+
+   For example, you should use names like `ignore_space_change_flag';
+don't use names like `iCantReadThis'.
+
+   Variables that indicate whether command-line options have been
+specified should be named after the meaning of the option, not after
+the option-letter.  A comment should state both the exact meaning of
+the option and its letter.  For example,
+
+     /* Ignore changes in horizontal whitespace (-b).  */
+     int ignore_space_change_flag;
+
+   When you want to define names with constant integer values, use
+`enum' rather than `#define'.  GDB knows about enumeration constants.
+
+   You might want to make sure that none of the file names would
+conflict if the files were loaded onto an MS-DOS file system which
+shortens the names.  You can use the program `doschk' to test for this.
+
+   Some GNU programs were designed to limit themselves to file names of
+14 characters or less, to avoid file name conflicts if they are read
+into older System V systems.  Please preserve this feature in the
+existing GNU programs that have it, but there is no need to do this in
+new GNU programs.  `doschk' also reports file names longer than 14
+characters.

+
+5.5 Portability between System Types
+====================================
+
+In the Unix world, "portability" refers to porting to different Unix
+versions.  For a GNU program, this kind of portability is desirable, but
+not paramount.
+
+   The primary purpose of GNU software is to run on top of the GNU
+kernel, compiled with the GNU C compiler, on various types of CPU.  So
+the kinds of portability that are absolutely necessary are quite
+limited.  But it is important to support Linux-based GNU systems, since
+they are the form of GNU that is popular.
+
+   Beyond that, it is good to support the other free operating systems
+(*BSD), and it is nice to support other Unix-like systems if you want
+to.  Supporting a variety of Unix-like systems is desirable, although
+not paramount.  It is usually not too hard, so you may as well do it.
+But you don't have to consider it an obligation, if it does turn out to
+be hard.
+
+   The easiest way to achieve portability to most Unix-like systems is
+to use Autoconf.  It's unlikely that your program needs to know more
+information about the host platform than Autoconf can provide, simply
+because most of the programs that need such knowledge have already been
+written.
+
+   Avoid using the format of semi-internal data bases (e.g.,
+directories) when there is a higher-level alternative (`readdir').
+
+   As for systems that are not like Unix, such as MSDOS, Windows, VMS,
+MVS, and older Macintosh systems, supporting them is often a lot of
+work.  When that is the case, it is better to spend your time adding
+features that will be useful on GNU and GNU/Linux, rather than on
+supporting other incompatible systems.
+
+   If you do support Windows, please do not abbreviate it as "win".  In
+hacker terminology, calling something a "win" is a form of praise.
+You're free to praise Microsoft Windows on your own if you want, but
+please don't do this in GNU packages.  Instead of abbreviating
+"Windows" to "win", you can write it in full or abbreviate it to "woe"
+or "w".  In GNU Emacs, for instance, we use `w32' in file names of
+Windows-specific files, but the macro for Windows conditionals is
+called `WINDOWSNT'.
+
+   It is a good idea to define the "feature test macro" `_GNU_SOURCE'
+when compiling your C files.  When you compile on GNU or GNU/Linux,
+this will enable the declarations of GNU library extension functions,
+and that will usually give you a compiler error message if you define
+the same function names in some other way in your program.  (You don't
+have to actually _use_ these functions, if you prefer to make the
+program more portable to other systems.)
+
+   But whether or not you use these GNU extensions, you should avoid
+using their names for any other meanings.  Doing so would make it hard
+to move your code into other GNU programs.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: CPU Portability,  Next: System Functions,  Prev: System Portability,  Up: Writing C
+
+5.6 Portability between CPUs
+============================
+
+Even GNU systems will differ because of differences among CPU
+types--for example, difference in byte ordering and alignment
+requirements.  It is absolutely essential to handle these differences.
+However, don't make any effort to cater to the possibility that an
+`int' will be less than 32 bits.  We don't support 16-bit machines in
+GNU.
+
+   Similarly, don't make any effort to cater to the possibility that
+`long' will be smaller than predefined types like `size_t'.  For
+example, the following code is ok:
+
+     printf ("size = %lu\n", (unsigned long) sizeof array);
+     printf ("diff = %ld\n", (long) (pointer2 - pointer1));
+
+   1989 Standard C requires this to work, and we know of only one
+counterexample: 64-bit programs on Microsoft Windows.  We will leave it
+to those who want to port GNU programs to that environment to figure
+out how to do it.
+
+   Predefined file-size types like `off_t' are an exception: they are
+longer than `long' on many platforms, so code like the above won't work
+with them.  One way to print an `off_t' value portably is to print its
+digits yourself, one by one.
+
+   Don't assume that the address of an `int' object is also the address
+of its least-significant byte.  This is false on big-endian machines.
+Thus, don't make the following mistake:
+
+     int c;
+     ...
+     while ((c = getchar ()) != EOF)
+       write (file_descriptor, &c, 1);
+
+Instead, use `unsigned char' as follows.  (The `unsigned' is for
+portability to unusual systems where `char' is signed and where there
+is integer overflow checking.)
+
+     int c;
+     while ((c = getchar ()) != EOF)
+       {
+         unsigned char u = c;
+         write (file_descriptor, &u, 1);
+       }
+
+   Avoid casting pointers to integers if you can.  Such casts greatly
+reduce portability, and in most programs they are easy to avoid.  In the
+cases where casting pointers to integers is essential--such as, a Lisp
+interpreter which stores type information as well as an address in one
+word--you'll have to make explicit provisions to handle different word
+sizes.  You will also need to make provision for systems in which the
+normal range of addresses you can get from `malloc' starts far away
+from zero.

+
+5.7 Calling System Functions
+============================
+
+Historically, C implementations differed substantially, and many
+systems lacked a full implementation of ANSI/ISO C89.  Nowadays,
+however, very few systems lack a C89 compiler and GNU C supports almost
+all of C99.  Similarly, most systems implement POSIX.1-1993 libraries
+and tools, and many have POSIX.1-2001.
+
+   Hence, there is little reason to support old C or non-POSIX systems,
+and you may want to take advantage of C99 and POSIX-1.2001 to write
+clearer, more portable, or faster code.  You should use standard
+interfaces where possible; but if GNU extensions make your program more
+maintainable, powerful, or otherwise better, don't hesitate to use
+them.  In any case, don't make your own declaration of system
+functions; that's a recipe for conflict.
+
+   Despite the standards, nearly every library function has some sort of
+portability issue on some system or another.  Here are some examples:
+
+`open'
+     Names with trailing `/''s are mishandled on many platforms.
+
+`printf'
+     `long double' may be unimplemented; floating values Infinity and
+     NaN are often mishandled; output for large precisions may be
+     incorrect.
+
+`readlink'
+     May return `int' instead of `ssize_t'.
+
+`scanf'
+     On Windows, `errno' is not set on failure.
+
+   Gnulib (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/) is a big help in this
+regard.  Gnulib provides implementations of standard interfaces on many
+of the systems that lack them, including portable implementations of
+enhanced GNU interfaces, thereby making their use portable, and of
+POSIX-1.2008 interfaces, some of which are missing even on up-to-date
+GNU systems.
+
+   Gnulib also provides many useful non-standard interfaces; for
+example, C implementations of standard data structures (hash tables,
+binary trees), error-checking type-safe wrappers for memory allocation
+functions (`xmalloc', `xrealloc'), and output of error messages.
+
+   Gnulib integrates with GNU Autoconf and Automake to remove much of
+the burden of writing portable code from the programmer: Gnulib makes
+your configure script automatically determine what features are missing
+and use the Gnulib code to supply the missing pieces.
+
+   The Gnulib and Autoconf manuals have extensive sections on
+portability: *note Introduction: (gnulib)Top. and *note Portable C and
+C++: (autoconf)Portable C and C++.  Please consult them for many more
+details.

+
+5.8 Internationalization
+========================
+
+GNU has a library called GNU gettext that makes it easy to translate the
+messages in a program into various languages.  You should use this
+library in every program.  Use English for the messages as they appear
+in the program, and let gettext provide the way to translate them into
+other languages.
+
+   Using GNU gettext involves putting a call to the `gettext' macro
+around each string that might need translation--like this:
+
+     printf (gettext ("Processing file '%s'..."), file);
+
+This permits GNU gettext to replace the string `"Processing file
+'%s'..."' with a translated version.
+
+   Once a program uses gettext, please make a point of writing calls to
+`gettext' when you add new strings that call for translation.
+
+   Using GNU gettext in a package involves specifying a "text domain
+name" for the package.  The text domain name is used to separate the
+translations for this package from the translations for other packages.
+Normally, the text domain name should be the same as the name of the
+package--for example, `coreutils' for the GNU core utilities.
+
+   To enable gettext to work well, avoid writing code that makes
+assumptions about the structure of words or sentences.  When you want
+the precise text of a sentence to vary depending on the data, use two or
+more alternative string constants each containing a complete sentences,
+rather than inserting conditionalized words or phrases into a single
+sentence framework.
+
+   Here is an example of what not to do:
+
+     printf ("%s is full", capacity > 5000000 ? "disk" : "floppy disk");
+
+   If you apply gettext to all strings, like this,
+
+     printf (gettext ("%s is full"),
+             capacity > 5000000 ? gettext ("disk") : gettext ("floppy disk"));
+
+the translator will hardly know that "disk" and "floppy disk" are meant
+to be substituted in the other string.  Worse, in some languages (like
+French) the construction will not work: the translation of the word
+"full" depends on the gender of the first part of the sentence; it
+happens to be not the same for "disk" as for "floppy disk".
+
+   Complete sentences can be translated without problems:
+
+     printf (capacity > 5000000 ? gettext ("disk is full")
+             : gettext ("floppy disk is full"));
+
+   A similar problem appears at the level of sentence structure with
+this code:
+
+     printf ("#  Implicit rule search has%s been done.\n",
+             f->tried_implicit ? "" : " not");
+
+Adding `gettext' calls to this code cannot give correct results for all
+languages, because negation in some languages requires adding words at
+more than one place in the sentence.  By contrast, adding `gettext'
+calls does the job straightforwardly if the code starts out like this:
+
+     printf (f->tried_implicit
+             ? "#  Implicit rule search has been done.\n",
+             : "#  Implicit rule search has not been done.\n");
+
+   Another example is this one:
+
+     printf ("%d file%s processed", nfiles,
+             nfiles != 1 ? "s" : "");
+
+The problem with this example is that it assumes that plurals are made
+by adding `s'.  If you apply gettext to the format string, like this,
+
+     printf (gettext ("%d file%s processed"), nfiles,
+             nfiles != 1 ? "s" : "");
+
+the message can use different words, but it will still be forced to use
+`s' for the plural.  Here is a better way, with gettext being applied to
+the two strings independently:
+
+     printf ((nfiles != 1 ? gettext ("%d files processed")
+              : gettext ("%d file processed")),
+             nfiles);
+
+But this still doesn't work for languages like Polish, which has three
+plural forms: one for nfiles == 1, one for nfiles == 2, 3, 4, 22, 23,
+24, ...  and one for the rest.  The GNU `ngettext' function solves this
+problem:
+
+     printf (ngettext ("%d files processed", "%d file processed", nfiles),
+             nfiles);

+
+5.9 Character Set
+=================
+
+Sticking to the ASCII character set (plain text, 7-bit characters) is
+preferred in GNU source code comments, text documents, and other
+contexts, unless there is good reason to do something else because of
+the application domain.  For example, if source code deals with the
+French Revolutionary calendar, it is OK if its literal strings contain
+accented characters in month names like "Flore'al".  Also, it is OK
+(but not required) to use non-ASCII characters to represent proper
+names of contributors in change logs (*note Change Logs::).
+
+   If you need to use non-ASCII characters, you should normally stick
+with one encoding, certainly within a single file.  UTF-8 is likely to
+be the best choice.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Quote Characters,  Next: Mmap,  Prev: Character Set,  Up: Writing C
+
+5.10 Quote Characters
+=====================
+
+In the C locale, the output of GNU programs should stick to plain ASCII
+for quotation characters in messages to users: preferably 0x22 (`"') or
+0x27 (`'') for both opening and closing quotes.  Although GNU programs
+traditionally used 0x60 (``') for opening and 0x27 (`'') for closing
+quotes, nowadays quotes ``like this'' are typically rendered
+asymmetrically, so quoting `"like this"' or `'like this'' typically
+looks better.
+
+   It is ok, but not required, for GNU programs to generate
+locale-specific quotes in non-C locales.  For example:
+
+     printf (gettext ("Processing file '%s'..."), file);
+
+Here, a French translation might cause `gettext' to return the string
+`"Traitement de fichier < %s >..."', yielding quotes more appropriate
+for a French locale.
+
+   Sometimes a program may need to use opening and closing quotes
+directly.  By convention, `gettext' translates the string `"`"' to the
+opening quote and the string `"'"' to the closing quote, and a program
+can use these translations.  Generally, though, it is better to
+translate quote characters in the context of longer strings.
+
+   If the output of your program is ever likely to be parsed by another
+program, it is good to provide an option that makes this parsing
+reliable.  For example, you could escape special characters using
+conventions from the C language or the Bourne shell.  See for example
+the option `--quoting-style' of GNU `ls'.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Mmap,  Prev: Quote Characters,  Up: Writing C
+
+5.11 Mmap
+=========
+
+Don't assume that `mmap' either works on all files or fails for all
+files.  It may work on some files and fail on others.
+
+   The proper way to use `mmap' is to try it on the specific file for
+which you want to use it--and if `mmap' doesn't work, fall back on
+doing the job in another way using `read' and `write'.
+
+   The reason this precaution is needed is that the GNU kernel (the
+HURD) provides a user-extensible file system, in which there can be many
+different kinds of "ordinary files".  Many of them support `mmap', but
+some do not.  It is important to make programs handle all these kinds
+of files.

+
+6.1 GNU Manuals
+===============
+
+The preferred document format for the GNU system is the Texinfo
+formatting language.  Every GNU package should (ideally) have
+documentation in Texinfo both for reference and for learners.  Texinfo
+makes it possible to produce a good quality formatted book, using TeX,
+and to generate an Info file.  It is also possible to generate HTML
+output from Texinfo source.  See the Texinfo manual, either the
+hardcopy, or the on-line version available through `info' or the Emacs
+Info subsystem (`C-h i').
+
+   Nowadays some other formats such as Docbook and Sgmltexi can be
+converted automatically into Texinfo.  It is ok to produce the Texinfo
+documentation by conversion this way, as long as it gives good results.
+
+   Make sure your manual is clear to a reader who knows nothing about
+the topic and reads it straight through.  This means covering basic
+topics at the beginning, and advanced topics only later.  This also
+means defining every specialized term when it is first used.
+
+   Programmers tend to carry over the structure of the program as the
+structure for its documentation.  But this structure is not necessarily
+good for explaining how to use the program; it may be irrelevant and
+confusing for a user.
+
+   Instead, the right way to structure documentation is according to the
+concepts and questions that a user will have in mind when reading it.
+This principle applies at every level, from the lowest (ordering
+sentences in a paragraph) to the highest (ordering of chapter topics
+within the manual).  Sometimes this structure of ideas matches the
+structure of the implementation of the software being documented--but
+often they are different.  An important part of learning to write good
+documentation is to learn to notice when you have unthinkingly
+structured the documentation like the implementation, stop yourself,
+and look for better alternatives.
+
+   For example, each program in the GNU system probably ought to be
+documented in one manual; but this does not mean each program should
+have its own manual.  That would be following the structure of the
+implementation, rather than the structure that helps the user
+understand.
+
+   Instead, each manual should cover a coherent _topic_.  For example,
+instead of a manual for `diff' and a manual for `diff3', we have one
+manual for "comparison of files" which covers both of those programs,
+as well as `cmp'.  By documenting these programs together, we can make
+the whole subject clearer.
+
+   The manual which discusses a program should certainly document all of
+the program's command-line options and all of its commands.  It should
+give examples of their use.  But don't organize the manual as a list of
+features.  Instead, organize it logically, by subtopics.  Address the
+questions that a user will ask when thinking about the job that the
+program does.  Don't just tell the reader what each feature can do--say
+what jobs it is good for, and show how to use it for those jobs.
+Explain what is recommended usage, and what kinds of usage users should
+avoid.
+
+   In general, a GNU manual should serve both as tutorial and reference.
+It should be set up for convenient access to each topic through Info,
+and for reading straight through (appendixes aside).  A GNU manual
+should give a good introduction to a beginner reading through from the
+start, and should also provide all the details that hackers want.  The
+Bison manual is a good example of this--please take a look at it to see
+what we mean.
+
+   That is not as hard as it first sounds.  Arrange each chapter as a
+logical breakdown of its topic, but order the sections, and write their
+text, so that reading the chapter straight through makes sense.  Do
+likewise when structuring the book into chapters, and when structuring a
+section into paragraphs.  The watchword is, _at each point, address the
+most fundamental and important issue raised by the preceding text._
+
+   If necessary, add extra chapters at the beginning of the manual which
+are purely tutorial and cover the basics of the subject.  These provide
+the framework for a beginner to understand the rest of the manual.  The
+Bison manual provides a good example of how to do this.
+
+   To serve as a reference, a manual should have an Index that list all
+the functions, variables, options, and important concepts that are part
+of the program.  One combined Index should do for a short manual, but
+sometimes for a complex package it is better to use multiple indices.
+The Texinfo manual includes advice on preparing good index entries, see
+*note Making Index Entries: (texinfo)Index Entries, and see *note
+Defining the Entries of an Index: (texinfo)Indexing Commands.
+
+   Don't use Unix man pages as a model for how to write GNU
+documentation; most of them are terse, badly structured, and give
+inadequate explanation of the underlying concepts.  (There are, of
+course, some exceptions.)  Also, Unix man pages use a particular format
+which is different from what we use in GNU manuals.
+
+   Please include an email address in the manual for where to report
+bugs _in the text of the manual_.
+
+   Please do not use the term "pathname" that is used in Unix
+documentation; use "file name" (two words) instead.  We use the term
+"path" only for search paths, which are lists of directory names.
+
+   Please do not use the term "illegal" to refer to erroneous input to
+a computer program.  Please use "invalid" for this, and reserve the
+term "illegal" for activities prohibited by law.
+
+   Please do not write `()' after a function name just to indicate it
+is a function.  `foo ()' is not a function, it is a function call with
+no arguments.

+
+6.2 Doc Strings and Manuals
+===========================
+
+Some programming systems, such as Emacs, provide a documentation string
+for each function, command or variable.  You may be tempted to write a
+reference manual by compiling the documentation strings and writing a
+little additional text to go around them--but you must not do it.  That
+approach is a fundamental mistake.  The text of well-written
+documentation strings will be entirely wrong for a manual.
+
+   A documentation string needs to stand alone--when it appears on the
+screen, there will be no other text to introduce or explain it.
+Meanwhile, it can be rather informal in style.
+
+   The text describing a function or variable in a manual must not stand
+alone; it appears in the context of a section or subsection.  Other text
+at the beginning of the section should explain some of the concepts, and
+should often make some general points that apply to several functions or
+variables.  The previous descriptions of functions and variables in the
+section will also have given information about the topic.  A description
+written to stand alone would repeat some of that information; this
+redundancy looks bad.  Meanwhile, the informality that is acceptable in
+a documentation string is totally unacceptable in a manual.
+
+   The only good way to use documentation strings in writing a good
+manual is to use them as a source of information for writing good text.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Manual Structure Details,  Next: License for Manuals,  Prev: Doc Strings and Manuals,  Up: Documentation
+
+6.3 Manual Structure Details
+============================
+
+The title page of the manual should state the version of the programs or
+packages documented in the manual.  The Top node of the manual should
+also contain this information.  If the manual is changing more
+frequently than or independent of the program, also state a version
+number for the manual in both of these places.
+
+   Each program documented in the manual should have a node named
+`PROGRAM Invocation' or `Invoking PROGRAM'.  This node (together with
+its subnodes, if any) should describe the program's command line
+arguments and how to run it (the sort of information people would look
+for in a man page).  Start with an `@example' containing a template for
+all the options and arguments that the program uses.
+
+   Alternatively, put a menu item in some menu whose item name fits one
+of the above patterns.  This identifies the node which that item points
+to as the node for this purpose, regardless of the node's actual name.
+
+   The `--usage' feature of the Info reader looks for such a node or
+menu item in order to find the relevant text, so it is essential for
+every Texinfo file to have one.
+
+   If one manual describes several programs, it should have such a node
+for each program described in the manual.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: License for Manuals,  Next: Manual Credits,  Prev: Manual Structure Details,  Up: Documentation
+
+6.4 License for Manuals
+=======================
+
+Please use the GNU Free Documentation License for all GNU manuals that
+are more than a few pages long.  Likewise for a collection of short
+documents--you only need one copy of the GNU FDL for the whole
+collection.  For a single short document, you can use a very permissive
+non-copyleft license, to avoid taking up space with a long license.
+
+   See `http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl-howto.html' for more explanation
+of how to employ the GFDL.
+
+   Note that it is not obligatory to include a copy of the GNU GPL or
+GNU LGPL in a manual whose license is neither the GPL nor the LGPL.  It
+can be a good idea to include the program's license in a large manual;
+in a short manual, whose size would be increased considerably by
+including the program's license, it is probably better not to include
+it.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Manual Credits,  Next: Printed Manuals,  Prev: License for Manuals,  Up: Documentation
+
+6.5 Manual Credits
+==================
+
+Please credit the principal human writers of the manual as the authors,
+on the title page of the manual.  If a company sponsored the work, thank
+the company in a suitable place in the manual, but do not cite the
+company as an author.

+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Printed Manuals,  Next: NEWS File,  Prev: Manual Credits,  Up: Documentation
+
+6.6 Printed Manuals
+===================
+
+The FSF publishes some GNU manuals in printed form.  To encourage sales
+of these manuals, the on-line versions of the manual should mention at
+the very start that the printed manual is available and should point at
+information for getting it--for instance, with a link to the page
+`http://www.gnu.org/order/order.html'.  This should not be included in
+the printed manual, though, because there it is redundant.
+
+   It is also useful to explain in the on-line forms of the manual how
+the user can print out the manual from the sources.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: NEWS File,  Next: Change Logs,  Prev: Printed Manuals,  Up: Documentation
+
+6.7 The NEWS File
+=================
+
+In addition to its manual, the package should have a file named `NEWS'
+which contains a list of user-visible changes worth mentioning.  In
+each new release, add items to the front of the file and identify the
+version they pertain to.  Don't discard old items; leave them in the
+file after the newer items.  This way, a user upgrading from any
+previous version can see what is new.
+
+   If the `NEWS' file gets very long, move some of the older items into
+a file named `ONEWS' and put a note at the end referring the user to
+that file.

+
+6.8 Change Logs
+===============
+
+Keep a change log to describe all the changes made to program source
+files.  The purpose of this is so that people investigating bugs in the
+future will know about the changes that might have introduced the bug.
+Often a new bug can be found by looking at what was recently changed.
+More importantly, change logs can help you eliminate conceptual
+inconsistencies between different parts of a program, by giving you a
+history of how the conflicting concepts arose and who they came from.

+
+6.8.1 Change Log Concepts
+-------------------------
+
+You can think of the change log as a conceptual "undo list" which
+explains how earlier versions were different from the current version.
+People can see the current version; they don't need the change log to
+tell them what is in it.  What they want from a change log is a clear
+explanation of how the earlier version differed.
+
+   The change log file is normally called `ChangeLog' and covers an
+entire directory.  Each directory can have its own change log, or a
+directory can use the change log of its parent directory--it's up to
+you.
+
+   Another alternative is to record change log information with a
+version control system such as RCS or CVS.  This can be converted
+automatically to a `ChangeLog' file using `rcs2log'; in Emacs, the
+command `C-x v a' (`vc-update-change-log') does the job.
+
+   There's no need to describe the full purpose of the changes or how
+they work together.  However, sometimes it is useful to write one line
+to describe the overall purpose of a change or a batch of changes.  If
+you think that a change calls for explanation, you're probably right.
+Please do explain it--but please put the full explanation in comments
+in the code, where people will see it whenever they see the code.  For
+example, "New function" is enough for the change log when you add a
+function, because there should be a comment before the function
+definition to explain what it does.
+
+   In the past, we recommended not mentioning changes in non-software
+files (manuals, help files, etc.) in change logs.  However, we've been
+advised that it is a good idea to include them, for the sake of
+copyright records.
+
+   The easiest way to add an entry to `ChangeLog' is with the Emacs
+command `M-x add-change-log-entry'.  An entry should have an asterisk,
+the name of the changed file, and then in parentheses the name of the
+changed functions, variables or whatever, followed by a colon.  Then
+describe the changes you made to that function or variable.

+6.8.2 Style of Change Logs
+--------------------------
+
+Here are some simple examples of change log entries, starting with the
+header line that says who made the change and when it was installed,
+followed by descriptions of specific changes.  (These examples are
+drawn from Emacs and GCC.)
+
+     1998-08-17  Richard Stallman  <rms@gnu.org>
+
+     * register.el (insert-register): Return nil.
+     (jump-to-register): Likewise.
+
+     * sort.el (sort-subr): Return nil.
+
+     * tex-mode.el (tex-bibtex-file, tex-file, tex-region):
+     Restart the tex shell if process is gone or stopped.
+     (tex-shell-running): New function.
+
+     * expr.c (store_one_arg): Round size up for move_block_to_reg.
+     (expand_call): Round up when emitting USE insns.
+     * stmt.c (assign_parms): Round size up for move_block_from_reg.
+
+   It's important to name the changed function or variable in full.
+Don't abbreviate function or variable names, and don't combine them.
+Subsequent maintainers will often search for a function name to find all
+the change log entries that pertain to it; if you abbreviate the name,
+they won't find it when they search.
+
+   For example, some people are tempted to abbreviate groups of function
+names by writing `* register.el ({insert,jump-to}-register)'; this is
+not a good idea, since searching for `jump-to-register' or
+`insert-register' would not find that entry.
+
+   Separate unrelated change log entries with blank lines.  When two
+entries represent parts of the same change, so that they work together,
+then don't put blank lines between them.  Then you can omit the file
+name and the asterisk when successive entries are in the same file.
+
+   Break long lists of function names by closing continued lines with
+`)', rather than `,', and opening the continuation with `(' as in this
+example:
+
+     * keyboard.c (menu_bar_items, tool_bar_items)
+     (Fexecute_extended_command): Deal with 'keymap' property.
+
+   When you install someone else's changes, put the contributor's name
+in the change log entry rather than in the text of the entry.  In other
+words, write this:
+
+     2002-07-14  John Doe  <jdoe@gnu.org>
+
+             * sewing.c: Make it sew.
+
+rather than this:
+
+     2002-07-14  Usual Maintainer  <usual@gnu.org>
+
+             * sewing.c: Make it sew.  Patch by jdoe@gnu.org.
+
+   As for the date, that should be the date you applied the change.

+
+6.8.3 Simple Changes
+--------------------
+
+Certain simple kinds of changes don't need much detail in the change
+log.
+
+   When you change the calling sequence of a function in a simple
+fashion, and you change all the callers of the function to use the new
+calling sequence, there is no need to make individual entries for all
+the callers that you changed.  Just write in the entry for the function
+being called, "All callers changed"--like this:
+
+     * keyboard.c (Fcommand_execute): New arg SPECIAL.
+     All callers changed.
+
+   When you change just comments or doc strings, it is enough to write
+an entry for the file, without mentioning the functions.  Just "Doc
+fixes" is enough for the change log.
+
+   There's no technical need to make change log entries for
+documentation files.  This is because documentation is not susceptible
+to bugs that are hard to fix.  Documentation does not consist of parts
+that must interact in a precisely engineered fashion.  To correct an
+error, you need not know the history of the erroneous passage; it is
+enough to compare what the documentation says with the way the program
+actually works.
+
+   However, you should keep change logs for documentation files when the
+project gets copyright assignments from its contributors, so as to make
+the records of authorship more accurate.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Conditional Changes,  Next: Indicating the Part Changed,  Prev: Simple Changes,  Up: Change Logs
+
+6.8.4 Conditional Changes
+-------------------------
+
+Source files can often contain code that is conditional to build-time
+or static conditions.  For example, C programs can contain compile-time
+`#if' conditionals; programs implemented in interpreted languages can
+contain module imports of function definitions that are only performed
+for certain versions of the interpreter; and Automake `Makefile.am'
+files can contain variable definitions or target declarations that are
+only to be considered if a configure-time Automake conditional is true.
+
+   Many changes are conditional as well: sometimes you add a new
+variable, or function, or even a new program or library, which is
+entirely dependent on a build-time condition.  It is useful to indicate
+in the change log the conditions for which a change applies.
+
+   Our convention for indicating conditional changes is to use _square
+brackets around the name of the condition_.
+
+   Conditional changes can happen in numerous scenarios and with many
+variations, so here are some examples to help clarify.  This first
+example describes changes in C, Perl, and Python files which are
+conditional but do not have an associated function or entity name:
+
+     * xterm.c [SOLARIS2]: Include <string.h>.
+     * FilePath.pm [$^O eq 'VMS']: Import the VMS::Feature module.
+     * framework.py [sys.version_info < (2, 6)]: Make "with" statement
+       available by importing it from __future__,
+       to support also python 2.5.
+
+   Our other examples will for simplicity be limited to C, as the minor
+changes necessary to adapt them to other languages should be
+self-evident.
+
+   Next, here is an entry describing a new definition which is entirely
+conditional: the C macro `FRAME_WINDOW_P' is defined (and used) only
+when the macro `HAVE_X_WINDOWS' is defined:
+
+     * frame.h [HAVE_X_WINDOWS] (FRAME_WINDOW_P): Macro defined.
+
+   Next, an entry for a change within the function `init_display',
+whose definition as a whole is unconditional, but the changes
+themselves are contained in a `#ifdef HAVE_LIBNCURSES' conditional:
+
+     * dispnew.c (init_display) [HAVE_LIBNCURSES]: If X, call tgetent.
+
+   Finally, here is an entry for a change that takes effect only when a
+certain macro is _not_ defined:
+
+     (gethostname) [!HAVE_SOCKETS]: Replace with winsock version.

+
+6.8.5 Indicating the Part Changed
+---------------------------------
+
+Indicate the part of a function which changed by using angle brackets
+enclosing an indication of what the changed part does.  Here is an entry
+for a change in the part of the function `sh-while-getopts' that deals
+with `sh' commands:
+
+     * progmodes/sh-script.el (sh-while-getopts) <sh>: Handle case that
+     user-specified option string is empty.

+
+6.9 Man Pages
+=============
+
+In the GNU project, man pages are secondary.  It is not necessary or
+expected for every GNU program to have a man page, but some of them do.
+It's your choice whether to include a man page in your program.
+
+   When you make this decision, consider that supporting a man page
+requires continual effort each time the program is changed.  The time
+you spend on the man page is time taken away from more useful work.
+
+   For a simple program which changes little, updating the man page may
+be a small job.  Then there is little reason not to include a man page,
+if you have one.
+
+   For a large program that changes a great deal, updating a man page
+may be a substantial burden.  If a user offers to donate a man page,
+you may find this gift costly to accept.  It may be better to refuse
+the man page unless the same person agrees to take full responsibility
+for maintaining it--so that you can wash your hands of it entirely.  If
+this volunteer later ceases to do the job, then don't feel obliged to
+pick it up yourself; it may be better to withdraw the man page from the
+distribution until someone else agrees to update it.
+
+   When a program changes only a little, you may feel that the
+discrepancies are small enough that the man page remains useful without
+updating.  If so, put a prominent note near the beginning of the man
+page explaining that you don't maintain it and that the Texinfo manual
+is more authoritative.  The note should say how to access the Texinfo
+documentation.
+
+   Be sure that man pages include a copyright statement and free
+license.  The simple all-permissive license is appropriate for simple
+man pages (*note License Notices for Other Files: (maintain)License
+Notices for Other Files.).
+
+   For long man pages, with enough explanation and documentation that
+they can be considered true manuals, use the GFDL (*note License for
+Manuals::).
+
+   Finally, the GNU help2man program
+(`http://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/') is one way to automate
+generation of a man page, in this case from `--help' output.  This is
+sufficient in many cases.

+
+6.10 Reading other Manuals
+==========================
+
+There may be non-free books or documentation files that describe the
+program you are documenting.
+
+   It is ok to use these documents for reference, just as the author of
+a new algebra textbook can read other books on algebra.  A large portion
+of any non-fiction book consists of facts, in this case facts about how
+a certain program works, and these facts are necessarily the same for
+everyone who writes about the subject.  But be careful not to copy your
+outline structure, wording, tables or examples from preexisting non-free
+documentation.  Copying from free documentation may be ok; please check
+with the FSF about the individual case.

+7 The Release Process
+*********************
+
+Making a release is more than just bundling up your source files in a
+tar file and putting it up for FTP.  You should set up your software so
+that it can be configured to run on a variety of systems.  Your Makefile
+should conform to the GNU standards described below, and your directory
+layout should also conform to the standards discussed below.  Doing so
+makes it easy to include your package into the larger framework of all
+GNU software.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Configuration::               How configuration of GNU packages should work.
+* Makefile Conventions::        Makefile conventions.
+* Releases::                    Making releases
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Configuration,  Next: Makefile Conventions,  Up: Managing Releases
+
+7.1 How Configuration Should Work
+=================================
+
+Each GNU distribution should come with a shell script named
+`configure'.  This script is given arguments which describe the kind of
+machine and system you want to compile the program for.  The
+`configure' script must record the configuration options so that they
+affect compilation.
+
+   The description here is the specification of the interface for the
+`configure' script in GNU packages.  Many packages implement it using
+GNU Autoconf (*note Introduction: (autoconf)Top.)  and/or GNU Automake
+(*note Introduction: (automake)Top.), but you do not have to use these
+tools.  You can implement it any way you like; for instance, by making
+`configure' be a wrapper around a completely different configuration
+system.
+
+   Another way for the `configure' script to operate is to make a link
+from a standard name such as `config.h' to the proper configuration
+file for the chosen system.  If you use this technique, the
+distribution should _not_ contain a file named `config.h'.  This is so
+that people won't be able to build the program without configuring it
+first.
+
+   Another thing that `configure' can do is to edit the Makefile.  If
+you do this, the distribution should _not_ contain a file named
+`Makefile'.  Instead, it should include a file `Makefile.in' which
+contains the input used for editing.  Once again, this is so that people
+won't be able to build the program without configuring it first.
+
+   If `configure' does write the `Makefile', then `Makefile' should
+have a target named `Makefile' which causes `configure' to be rerun,
+setting up the same configuration that was set up last time.  The files
+that `configure' reads should be listed as dependencies of `Makefile'.
+
+   All the files which are output from the `configure' script should
+have comments at the beginning explaining that they were generated
+automatically using `configure'.  This is so that users won't think of
+trying to edit them by hand.
+
+   The `configure' script should write a file named `config.status'
+which describes which configuration options were specified when the
+program was last configured.  This file should be a shell script which,
+if run, will recreate the same configuration.
+
+   The `configure' script should accept an option of the form
+`--srcdir=DIRNAME' to specify the directory where sources are found (if
+it is not the current directory).  This makes it possible to build the
+program in a separate directory, so that the actual source directory is
+not modified.
+
+   If the user does not specify `--srcdir', then `configure' should
+check both `.' and `..' to see if it can find the sources.  If it finds
+the sources in one of these places, it should use them from there.
+Otherwise, it should report that it cannot find the sources, and should
+exit with nonzero status.
+
+   Usually the easy way to support `--srcdir' is by editing a
+definition of `VPATH' into the Makefile.  Some rules may need to refer
+explicitly to the specified source directory.  To make this possible,
+`configure' can add to the Makefile a variable named `srcdir' whose
+value is precisely the specified directory.
+
+   In addition, the `configure' script should take options
+corresponding to most of the standard directory variables (*note
+Directory Variables::).  Here is the list:
+
+     --prefix --exec-prefix --bindir --sbindir --libexecdir --sysconfdir
+     --sharedstatedir --localstatedir --libdir --includedir --oldincludedir
+     --datarootdir --datadir --infodir --localedir --mandir --docdir
+     --htmldir --dvidir --pdfdir --psdir
+
+   The `configure' script should also take an argument which specifies
+the type of system to build the program for.  This argument should look
+like this:
+
+     CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
+
+   For example, an Athlon-based GNU/Linux system might be
+`i686-pc-linux-gnu'.
+
+   The `configure' script needs to be able to decode all plausible
+alternatives for how to describe a machine.  Thus,
+`athlon-pc-gnu/linux' would be a valid alias.  There is a shell script
+called `config.sub'
+(http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD)
+that you can use as a subroutine to validate system types and
+canonicalize aliases.
+
+   The `configure' script should also take the option
+`--build=BUILDTYPE', which should be equivalent to a plain BUILDTYPE
+argument.  For example, `configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu' is
+equivalent to `configure i686-pc-linux-gnu'.  When the build type is
+not specified by an option or argument, the `configure' script should
+normally guess it using the shell script `config.guess'
+(http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD).
+
+   Other options are permitted to specify in more detail the software
+or hardware present on the machine, to include or exclude optional parts
+of the package, or to adjust the name of some tools or arguments to
+them:
+
+`--enable-FEATURE[=PARAMETER]'
+     Configure the package to build and install an optional user-level
+     facility called FEATURE.  This allows users to choose which
+     optional features to include.  Giving an optional PARAMETER of
+     `no' should omit FEATURE, if it is built by default.
+
+     No `--enable' option should *ever* cause one feature to replace
+     another.  No `--enable' option should ever substitute one useful
+     behavior for another useful behavior.  The only proper use for
+     `--enable' is for questions of whether to build part of the program
+     or exclude it.
+
+`--with-PACKAGE'
+     The package PACKAGE will be installed, so configure this package
+     to work with PACKAGE.
+
+     Possible values of PACKAGE include `gnu-as' (or `gas'), `gnu-ld',
+     `gnu-libc', `gdb', `x', and `x-toolkit'.
+
+     Do not use a `--with' option to specify the file name to use to
+     find certain files.  That is outside the scope of what `--with'
+     options are for.
+
+`VARIABLE=VALUE'
+     Set the value of the variable VARIABLE to VALUE.  This is used to
+     override the default values of commands or arguments in the build
+     process.  For example, the user could issue `configure CFLAGS=-g
+     CXXFLAGS=-g' to build with debugging information and without the
+     default optimization.
+
+     Specifying variables as arguments to `configure', like this:
+          ./configure CC=gcc
+     is preferable to setting them in environment variables:
+          CC=gcc ./configure
+     as it helps to recreate the same configuration later with
+     `config.status'.  However, both methods should be supported.
+
+   All `configure' scripts should accept all of the "detail" options
+and the variable settings, whether or not they make any difference to
+the particular package at hand.  In particular, they should accept any
+option that starts with `--with-' or `--enable-'.  This is so users
+will be able to configure an entire GNU source tree at once with a
+single set of options.
+
+   You will note that the categories `--with-' and `--enable-' are
+narrow: they *do not* provide a place for any sort of option you might
+think of.  That is deliberate.  We want to limit the possible
+configuration options in GNU software.  We do not want GNU programs to
+have idiosyncratic configuration options.
+
+   Packages that perform part of the compilation process may support
+cross-compilation.  In such a case, the host and target machines for the
+program may be different.
+
+   The `configure' script should normally treat the specified type of
+system as both the host and the target, thus producing a program which
+works for the same type of machine that it runs on.
+
+   To compile a program to run on a host type that differs from the
+build type, use the configure option `--host=HOSTTYPE', where HOSTTYPE
+uses the same syntax as BUILDTYPE.  The host type normally defaults to
+the build type.
+
+   To configure a cross-compiler, cross-assembler, or what have you, you
+should specify a target different from the host, using the configure
+option `--target=TARGETTYPE'.  The syntax for TARGETTYPE is the same as
+for the host type.  So the command would look like this:
+
+     ./configure --host=HOSTTYPE --target=TARGETTYPE
+
+   The target type normally defaults to the host type.  Programs for
+which cross-operation is not meaningful need not accept the `--target'
+option, because configuring an entire operating system for
+cross-operation is not a meaningful operation.
+
+   Some programs have ways of configuring themselves automatically.  If
+your program is set up to do this, your `configure' script can simply
+ignore most of its arguments.

+========================
+
+This node describes conventions for writing the Makefiles for GNU
+programs.  Using Automake will help you write a Makefile that follows
+these conventions.  For more information on portable Makefiles, see

+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Makefile Basics,  Next: Utilities in Makefiles,  Up: Makefile Conventions
+
+7.2.1 General Conventions for Makefiles
+---------------------------------------
+
+Every Makefile should contain this line:
+
+     SHELL = /bin/sh
+
+to avoid trouble on systems where the `SHELL' variable might be
+inherited from the environment.  (This is never a problem with GNU
+`make'.)
+
+   Different `make' programs have incompatible suffix lists and
+implicit rules, and this sometimes creates confusion or misbehavior.  So
+it is a good idea to set the suffix list explicitly using only the
+suffixes you need in the particular Makefile, like this:
+
+     .SUFFIXES:
+     .SUFFIXES: .c .o
+
+The first line clears out the suffix list, the second introduces all
+suffixes which may be subject to implicit rules in this Makefile.
+
+   Don't assume that `.' is in the path for command execution.  When
+you need to run programs that are a part of your package during the
+make, please make sure that it uses `./' if the program is built as
+part of the make or `$(srcdir)/' if the file is an unchanging part of
+the source code.  Without one of these prefixes, the current search
+path is used.
+
+   The distinction between `./' (the "build directory") and
+`$(srcdir)/' (the "source directory") is important because users can
+build in a separate directory using the `--srcdir' option to
+`configure'.  A rule of the form:
+
+     foo.1 : foo.man sedscript
+             sed -f sedscript foo.man > foo.1
+
+will fail when the build directory is not the source directory, because
+`foo.man' and `sedscript' are in the source directory.
+
+   When using GNU `make', relying on `VPATH' to find the source file
+will work in the case where there is a single dependency file, since
+the `make' automatic variable `$<' will represent the source file
+wherever it is.  (Many versions of `make' set `$<' only in implicit
+rules.)  A Makefile target like
+
+     foo.o : bar.c
+             $(CC) -I. -I$(srcdir) $(CFLAGS) -c bar.c -o foo.o
+
+should instead be written as
+
+     foo.o : bar.c
+             $(CC) -I. -I$(srcdir) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $@
+
+in order to allow `VPATH' to work correctly.  When the target has
+multiple dependencies, using an explicit `$(srcdir)' is the easiest way
+to make the rule work well.  For example, the target above for `foo.1'
+is best written as:
+
+     foo.1 : foo.man sedscript
+             sed -f $(srcdir)/sedscript $(srcdir)/foo.man > $@
+
+   GNU distributions usually contain some files which are not source
+files--for example, Info files, and the output from Autoconf, Automake,
+Bison or Flex.  Since these files normally appear in the source
+directory, they should always appear in the source directory, not in the
+build directory.  So Makefile rules to update them should put the
+updated files in the source directory.
+
+   However, if a file does not appear in the distribution, then the
+Makefile should not put it in the source directory, because building a
+program in ordinary circumstances should not modify the source directory
+in any way.
+
+   Try to make the build and installation targets, at least (and all
+their subtargets) work correctly with a parallel `make'.
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: Utilities in Makefiles,  Next: Command Variables,  Prev: Makefile Basics,  Up: Makefile Conventions
+
+7.2.2 Utilities in Makefiles
+----------------------------
+
+Write the Makefile commands (and any shell scripts, such as
+`configure') to run under `sh' (both the traditional Bourne shell and
+the POSIX shell), not `csh'.  Don't use any special features of `ksh'
+or `bash', or POSIX features not widely supported in traditional Bourne
+`sh'.
+
+   The `configure' script and the Makefile rules for building and
+installation should not use any utilities directly except these:
+
+     awk cat cmp cp diff echo egrep expr false grep install-info ln ls
+     mkdir mv printf pwd rm rmdir sed sleep sort tar test touch tr true
+
+   Compression programs such as `gzip' can be used in the `dist' rule.
+
+   Generally, stick to the widely-supported (usually POSIX-specified)
+options and features of these programs.  For example, don't use `mkdir
+-p', convenient as it may be, because a few systems don't support it at
+all and with others, it is not safe for parallel execution.  For a list
+of known incompatibilities, see *note Portable Shell Programming:
+(autoconf)Portable Shell.
+
+   It is a good idea to avoid creating symbolic links in makefiles,
+since a few file systems don't support them.
+
+   The Makefile rules for building and installation can also use
+compilers and related programs, but should do so via `make' variables
+so that the user can substitute alternatives.  Here are some of the
+programs we mean:
+
+     ar bison cc flex install ld ldconfig lex
+     make makeinfo ranlib texi2dvi yacc
+
+   Use the following `make' variables to run those programs:
+
+     $(AR) $(BISON) $(CC) $(FLEX) $(INSTALL) $(LD) $(LDCONFIG) $(LEX)
+     $(MAKE) $(MAKEINFO) $(RANLIB) $(TEXI2DVI) $(YACC)
+
+   When you use `ranlib' or `ldconfig', you should make sure nothing
+bad happens if the system does not have the program in question.
+Arrange to ignore an error from that command, and print a message before
+the command to tell the user that failure of this command does not mean
+a problem.  (The Autoconf `AC_PROG_RANLIB' macro can help with this.)
+
+   If you use symbolic links, you should implement a fallback for
+systems that don't have symbolic links.
+
+   Additional utilities that can be used via Make variables are:
+

+
+   It is ok to use other utilities in Makefile portions (or scripts)
+intended only for particular systems where you know those utilities
+exist.

+
+7.2.3 Variables for Specifying Commands
+---------------------------------------
+
+Makefiles should provide variables for overriding certain commands,
+options, and so on.
+
+   In particular, you should run most utility programs via variables.
+Thus, if you use Bison, have a variable named `BISON' whose default
+value is set with `BISON = bison', and refer to it with `$(BISON)'
+whenever you need to use Bison.
+
+   File management utilities such as `ln', `rm', `mv', and so on, need
+not be referred to through variables in this way, since users don't
+need to replace them with other programs.
+
+   Each program-name variable should come with an options variable that
+is used to supply options to the program.  Append `FLAGS' to the
+program-name variable name to get the options variable name--for
+example, `BISONFLAGS'.  (The names `CFLAGS' for the C compiler,
+`YFLAGS' for yacc, and `LFLAGS' for lex, are exceptions to this rule,
+but we keep them because they are standard.)  Use `CPPFLAGS' in any
+compilation command that runs the preprocessor, and use `LDFLAGS' in
+any compilation command that does linking as well as in any direct use
+of `ld'.
+
+   If there are C compiler options that _must_ be used for proper
+compilation of certain files, do not include them in `CFLAGS'.  Users
+expect to be able to specify `CFLAGS' freely themselves.  Instead,
+arrange to pass the necessary options to the C compiler independently
+of `CFLAGS', by writing them explicitly in the compilation commands or
+by defining an implicit rule, like this:
+
+     CFLAGS = -g
+     ALL_CFLAGS = -I. $(CFLAGS)
+     .c.o:
+             $(CC) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(ALL_CFLAGS) $<
+
+   Do include the `-g' option in `CFLAGS', because that is not
+_required_ for proper compilation.  You can consider it a default that
+is only recommended.  If the package is set up so that it is compiled
+with GCC by default, then you might as well include `-O' in the default
+value of `CFLAGS' as well.
+
+   Put `CFLAGS' last in the compilation command, after other variables
+containing compiler options, so the user can use `CFLAGS' to override
+the others.
+
+   `CFLAGS' should be used in every invocation of the C compiler, both
+those which do compilation and those which do linking.
+
+   Every Makefile should define the variable `INSTALL', which is the
+basic command for installing a file into the system.
+
+   Every Makefile should also define the variables `INSTALL_PROGRAM'
+and `INSTALL_DATA'.  (The default for `INSTALL_PROGRAM' should be
+`$(INSTALL)'; the default for `INSTALL_DATA' should be `${INSTALL} -m
+644'.)  Then it should use those variables as the commands for actual
+installation, for executables and non-executables respectively.
+Minimal use of these variables is as follows:
+
+     $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo $(bindir)/foo
+     $(INSTALL_DATA) libfoo.a $(libdir)/libfoo.a
+
+   However, it is preferable to support a `DESTDIR' prefix on the
+target files, as explained in the next section.
+
+   It is acceptable, but not required, to install multiple files in one
+command, with the final argument being a directory, as in:
+
+     $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo bar baz $(bindir)
+
+
+File: standards.info,  Node: DESTDIR,  Next: Directory Variables,  Prev: Command Variables,  Up: Makefile Conventions
+
+7.2.4 `DESTDIR': Support for Staged Installs
+--------------------------------------------
+
+`DESTDIR' is a variable prepended to each installed target file, like
+this:
+
+     $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/foo
+     $(INSTALL_DATA) libfoo.a $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/libfoo.a
+
+   The `DESTDIR' variable is specified by the user on the `make'
+command line as an absolute file name.  For example:
+
+     make DESTDIR=/tmp/stage install
+
+`DESTDIR' should be supported only in the `install*' and `uninstall*'
+targets, as those are the only targets where it is useful.
+
+   If your installation step would normally install
+`/usr/local/bin/foo' and `/usr/local/lib/libfoo.a', then an
+installation invoked as in the example above would install
+`/tmp/stage/usr/local/bin/foo' and `/tmp/stage/usr/local/lib/libfoo.a'
+instead.
+
+   Prepending the variable `DESTDIR' to each target in this way
+provides for "staged installs", where the installed files are not
+placed directly into their expected location but are instead copied
+into a temporary location (`DESTDIR').  However, installed files
+maintain their relative directory structure and any embedded file names
+will not be modified.
+
+   You should not set the value of `DESTDIR' in your `Makefile' at all;
+then the files are installed into their expected locations by default.
+Also, specifying `DESTDIR' should not change the operation of the
+software in any way, so its value should not be included in any file
+contents.
+
+   `DESTDIR' support is commonly used in package creation.  It is also
+helpful to users who want to understand what a given package will
+install where, and to allow users who don't normally have permissions
+to install into protected areas to build and install before gaining
+those permissions.  Finally, it can be useful with tools such as
+`stow', where code is installed in one place but made to appear to be
+installed somewhere else using symbolic links or special mount
+operations.  So, we strongly recommend GNU packages support `DESTDIR',
+though it is not an absolute requirement.
+

+
+7.2.5 Variables for Installation Directories
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Installation directories should always be named by variables, so it is
+easy to install in a nonstandard place.  The standard names for these
+variables and the values they should have in GNU packages are described
+below.  They are based on a standard file system layout; variants of it
+are used in GNU/Linux and other modern operating systems.
+
+   Installers are expected to override these values when calling `make'
+(e.g., `make prefix=/usr install' or `configure' (e.g., `configure
+--prefix=/usr').  GNU packages should not try to guess which value
+should be appropriate for these variables on the system they are being
+installed onto: use the default settings specified here so that all GNU
+packages behave identically, allowing the installer to achieve any
+desired layout.
+
+   All installation directories, and their parent directories, should be
+created (if necessary) before they are installed into.
+
+   These first two variables set the root for the installation.  All the
+other installation directories should be subdirectories of one of these
+two, and nothing should be directly installed into these two
+directories.
+
+`prefix'
+     A prefix used in constructing the default values of the variables
+     listed below.  The default value of `prefix' should be
+     `/usr/local'.  When building the complete GNU system, the prefix
+     will be empty and `/usr' will be a symbolic link to `/'.  (If you
+     are using Autoconf, write it as `@prefix@'.)
+
+     Running `make install' with a different value of `prefix' from the
+     one used to build the program should _not_ recompile the program.
+
+`exec_prefix'
+     A prefix used in constructing the default values of some of the
+     variables listed below.  The default value of `exec_prefix' should
+     be `$(prefix)'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+     `@exec_prefix@'.)
+
+     Generally, `$(exec_prefix)' is used for directories that contain
+     machine-specific files (such as executables and subroutine
+     libraries), while `$(prefix)' is used directly for other
+     directories.
+
+     Running `make install' with a different value of `exec_prefix'
+     from the one used to build the program should _not_ recompile the
+     program.
+
+   Executable programs are installed in one of the following
+directories.
+
+`bindir'
+     The directory for installing executable programs that users can
+     run.  This should normally be `/usr/local/bin', but write it as
+     `$(exec_prefix)/bin'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+     `@bindir@'.)
+
+`sbindir'
+     The directory for installing executable programs that can be run
+     from the shell, but are only generally useful to system
+     administrators.  This should normally be `/usr/local/sbin', but
+     write it as `$(exec_prefix)/sbin'.  (If you are using Autoconf,
+     write it as `@sbindir@'.)
+
+`libexecdir'
+     The directory for installing executable programs to be run by other
+     programs rather than by users.  This directory should normally be
+     `/usr/local/libexec', but write it as `$(exec_prefix)/libexec'.
+     (If you are using Autoconf, write it as `@libexecdir@'.)
+
+     The definition of `libexecdir' is the same for all packages, so
+     you should install your data in a subdirectory thereof.  Most
+     packages install their data under `$(libexecdir)/PACKAGE-NAME/',
+     possibly within additional subdirectories thereof, such as
+     `$(libexecdir)/PACKAGE-NAME/MACHINE/VERSION'.
+
+   Data files used by the program during its execution are divided into
+categories in two ways.
+
+   * Some files are normally modified by programs; others are never
+     normally modified (though users may edit some of these).
+
+   * Some files are architecture-independent and can be shared by all
+     machines at a site; some are architecture-dependent and can be
+     shared only by machines of the same kind and operating system;
+     others may never be shared between two machines.
+
+   This makes for six different possibilities.  However, we want to
+discourage the use of architecture-dependent files, aside from object
+files and libraries.  It is much cleaner to make other data files
+architecture-independent, and it is generally not hard.
+
+   Here are the variables Makefiles should use to specify directories
+to put these various kinds of files in:
+
+`datarootdir'
+     The root of the directory tree for read-only
+     architecture-independent data files.  This should normally be
+     `/usr/local/share', but write it as `$(prefix)/share'.  (If you
+     are using Autoconf, write it as `@datarootdir@'.)  `datadir''s
+     default value is based on this variable; so are `infodir',
+     `mandir', and others.
+
+`datadir'
+     The directory for installing idiosyncratic read-only
+     architecture-independent data files for this program.  This is
+     usually the same place as `datarootdir', but we use the two
+     separate variables so that you can move these program-specific
+     files without altering the location for Info files, man pages, etc.
+
+     This should normally be `/usr/local/share', but write it as
+     `$(datarootdir)'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+     `@datadir@'.)
+
+     The definition of `datadir' is the same for all packages, so you
+     should install your data in a subdirectory thereof.  Most packages
+     install their data under `$(datadir)/PACKAGE-NAME/'.
+
+`sysconfdir'
+     The directory for installing read-only data files that pertain to a
+     single machine-that is to say, files for configuring a host.
+     Mailer and network configuration files, `/etc/passwd', and so
+     forth belong here.  All the files in this directory should be
+     ordinary ASCII text files.  This directory should normally be
+     `/usr/local/etc', but write it as `$(prefix)/etc'.  (If you are
+     using Autoconf, write it as `@sysconfdir@'.)
+
+     Do not install executables here in this directory (they probably
+     belong in `$(libexecdir)' or `$(sbindir)').  Also do not install
+     files that are modified in the normal course of their use (programs
+     whose purpose is to change the configuration of the system
+     excluded).  Those probably belong in `$(localstatedir)'.
+
+`sharedstatedir'
+     The directory for installing architecture-independent data files
+     which the programs modify while they run.  This should normally be
+     `/usr/local/com', but write it as `$(prefix)/com'.  (If you are
+     using Autoconf, write it as `@sharedstatedir@'.)
+
+`localstatedir'
+     The directory for installing data files which the programs modify
+     while they run, and that pertain to one specific machine.  Users
+     should never need to modify files in this directory to configure
+     the package's operation; put such configuration information in
+     separate files that go in `$(datadir)' or `$(sysconfdir)'.
+     `$(localstatedir)' should normally be `/usr/local/var', but write
+     it as `$(prefix)/var'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+     `@localstatedir@'.)
+
+   These variables specify the directory for installing certain specific
+types of files, if your program has them.  Every GNU package should
+have Info files, so every program needs `infodir', but not all need
+`libdir' or `lispdir'.
+
+`includedir'
+     The directory for installing header files to be included by user
+     programs with the C `#include' preprocessor directive.  This
+     should normally be `/usr/local/include', but write it as
+     `$(prefix)/include'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write it as
+     `@includedir@'.)
+
+     Most compilers other than GCC do not look for header files in
+     directory `/usr/local/include'.  So installing the header files
+     this way is only useful with GCC.  Sometimes this is not a problem
+     because some libraries are only really intended to work with GCC.
+     But some libraries are intended to work with other compilers.
+     They should install their header files in two places, one
+     specified by `includedir' and one specified by `oldincludedir'.
+
+`oldincludedir'
+     The directory for installing `#include' header files for use with
+     compilers other than GCC.  This should normally be `/usr/include'.
+     (If you are using Autoconf, you can write it as `@oldincludedir@'.)
+
+     The Makefile commands should check whether the value of
+     `oldincludedir' is empty.  If it is, they should not try to use
+     it; they should cancel the second installation of the header files.
+
+     A package should not replace an existing header in this directory
+     unless the header came from the same package.  Thus, if your Foo
+     package provides a header file `foo.h', then it should install the
+     header file in the `oldincludedir' directory if either (1) there
+     is no `foo.h' there or (2) the `foo.h' that exists came from the
+     Foo package.
+
+     To tell whether `foo.h' came from the Foo package, put a magic
+     string in the file--part of a comment--and `grep' for that string.
+
+`docdir'
+     The directory for installing documentation files (other than Info)
+     for this package.  By default, it should be
+     `/usr/local/share/doc/YOURPKG', but it should be written as
+     `$(datarootdir)/doc/YOURPKG'.  (If you are using Autoconf, write
+     it as `@docdir@'.)  The YOURPKG subdirectory, which may include a
+     version number, prevents collisions among files with common names,
+     such as `README'.
+
+`infodir'
+     The directory for installing the Info files for this package.  By
+     default, it should be `/usr/local/share/info', but it should be
+     written as `$(datarootdir)/info'.  (If you are using Autoconf,
+     write it as `@infodir@'.)  `infodir' is separate from `docdir' for
+     compatibility with existing practice.
+
+`htmldir'
+`dvidir'
+`pdfdir'
+`psdir'
+     Directories for installing documentation files in the particular
+     format.  They should all be set to `$(docdir)' by default.  (If
+     you are using Autoconf, write them as `@htmldir@', `@dvidir@',
+     etc.)  Packages which supply several translations of their
+     documentation should install them in `$(htmldir)/'LL,
+     `$(pdfdir)/'LL, etc. where LL is a locale abbreviation such as
+     `en' or `pt_BR'.
+
+`libdir'
+     The directory for object files and libraries of object code.  Do
+     not install executables here, they probably ought to go in
+     `$(libexecdir)' instead.  The value of `libdir' should normally be
+     `/usr/local/lib', but write it as `$(exec_prefix)/lib'.  (If you
+     are using Autoconf, write it as `@libdir@'.)
+
+`lispdir'
+     The directory for installing any Emacs Lisp files in this package.
+     By default, it should be `/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp', but it
+     should be written as `$(datarootdir)/emacs/site-lisp'.
+
+     If you are using Autoconf, write the default as `@lispdir@'.  In
+     order to make `@lispdir@' work, you need the following lines in
+     your `configure.in' file:
+
+          lispdir='${datarootdir}/emacs/site-lisp'
+          AC_SUBST(lispdir)
+
+`localedir'
+     The directory for installing locale-specific message catalogs for
+     this package.  By default, it should be `/usr/local/share/locale',
+     but it should be written as `$(datarootdir)/locale'.  (If you are
+     using Autoconf, write it as `@localedir@'.)  This directory
+     usually has a subdirectory per locale.
+
+   Unix-style man pages are installed in one of the following:
+
+`mandir'
+     The top-level directory for installing the man pages (if any) for
+     this package.  It will normally be `/usr/local/share/man', but you
+     should write it as `$(datarootdir)/man'.  (If you are using
+     Autoconf, write it as `@mandir@'.)
+
+`man1dir'
+     The directory for installing section 1 man pages.  Write it as
+     `$(mandir)/man1'.
+
+`man2dir'
+     The directory for installing section 2 man pages.  Write it as
+     `$(mandir)/man2'
+
+`...'
+     *Don't make the primary documentation for any GNU software be a
+     man page.  Write a manual in Texinfo instead.  Man pages are just
+     for the sake of people running GNU software on Unix, which is a
+     secondary application only.*
+
+`manext'
+     The file name extension for the installed man page.  This should
+     contain a period followed by the appropriate digit; it should
+     normally be `.1'.
+
+`man1ext'
+     The file name extension for installed section 1 man pages.
+
+`man2ext'
+     The file name extension for installed section 2 man pages.
+
+`...'
+     Use these names instead of `manext' if the package needs to
+     install man pages in more than one section of the manual.
+
+   And finally, you should set the following variable:
+
+`srcdir'
+     The directory for the sources being compiled.  The value of this
+     variable is normally inserted by the `configure' shell script.
+     (If you are using Autoconf, use `srcdir = @srcdir@'.)
+
+   For example:
+
+     # Common prefix for installation directories.
+     # NOTE: This directory must exist when you start the install.
+     prefix = /usr/local
+     datarootdir = $(prefix)/share
+     datadir = $(datarootdir)
+     exec_prefix = $(prefix)
+     # Where to put the executable for the command `gcc'.
+     bindir = $(exec_prefix)/bin
+     # Where to put the directories used by the compiler.
+     libexecdir = $(exec_prefix)/libexec
+     # Where to put the Info files.
+     infodir = $(datarootdir)/info
+
+   If your program installs a large number of files into one of the
+standard user-specified directories, it might be useful to group them
+into a subdirectory particular to that program.  If you do this, you
+should write the `install' rule to create these subdirectories.
+
+   Do not expect the user to include the subdirectory name in the value
+of any of the variables listed above.  The idea of having a uniform set
+of variable names for installation directories is to enable the user to
+specify the exact same values for several different GNU packages.  In
+order for this to be useful, all the packages must be designed so that
+they will work sensibly when the user does so.
+
+   At times, not all of these variables may be implemented in the
+current release of Autoconf and/or Automake; but as of Autoconf 2.60, we
+believe all of them are.  When any are missing, the descriptions here
+serve as specifications for what Autoconf will implement.  As a
+programmer, you can either use a development version of Autoconf or
+avoid using these variables until a stable release is made which
+supports them.

+
+7.2.6 Standard Targets for Users
+--------------------------------
+
+All GNU programs should have the following targets in their Makefiles:
+
+`all'
+     Compile the entire program.  This should be the default target.
+     This target need not rebuild any documentation files; Info files
+     should normally be included in the distribution, and DVI (and other
+     documentation format) files should be made only when explicitly
+     asked for.
+
+     By default, the Make rules should compile and link with `-g', so
+     that executable programs have debugging symbols.  Otherwise, you
+     are essentially helpless in the face of a crash, and it is often
+     far from easy to reproduce with a fresh build.
+
+`install'
+     Compile the program and copy the executables, libraries, and so on
+     to the file names where they should reside for actual use.  If
+     there is a simple test to verify that a program is properly
+     installed, this target should run that test.
+
+     Do not strip executables when installing them.  This helps eventual
+     debugging that may be needed later, and nowadays disk space is
+     cheap and dynamic loaders typically ensure debug sections are not
+     loaded during normal execution.  Users that need stripped binaries
+     may invoke the `install-strip' target to do that.
+
+     If possible, write the `install' target rule so that it does not
+     modify anything in the directory where the program was built,
+     provided `make all' has just been done.  This is convenient for
+     building the program under one user name and installing it under
+     another.
+
+     The commands should create all the directories in which files are
+     to be installed, if they don't already exist.  This includes the
+     directories specified as the values of the variables `prefix' and
+     `exec_prefix', as well as all subdirectories that are needed.  One
+     way to do this is by means of an `installdirs' target as described
+     below.
+
+     Use `-' before any command for installing a man page, so that
+     `make' will ignore any errors.  This is in case there are systems
+     that don't have the Unix man page documentation system installed.
+
+     The way to install Info files is to copy them into `$(infodir)'
+     with `$(INSTALL_DATA)' (*note Command Variables::), and then run
+     the `install-info' program if it is present.  `install-info' is a
+     program that edits the Info `dir' file to add or update the menu
+     entry for the given Info file; it is part of the Texinfo package.
+
+     Here is a sample rule to install an Info file that also tries to
+     handle some additional situations, such as `install-info' not
+     being present.
+
+          do-install-info: foo.info installdirs
+                  $(NORMAL_INSTALL)
+          # Prefer an info file in . to one in srcdir.
+                  if test -f foo.info; then d=.; \
+                   else d="$(srcdir)"; fi; \
+                  $(INSTALL_DATA) $$d/foo.info \
+                    "$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/foo.info"
+          # Run install-info only if it exists.
+          # Use `if' instead of just prepending `-' to the
+          # line so we notice real errors from install-info.
+          # Use `$(SHELL) -c' because some shells do not
+          # fail gracefully when there is an unknown command.
+                  $(POST_INSTALL)
+                  if $(SHELL) -c 'install-info --version' \
+                     >/dev/null 2>&1; then \
+                    install-info --dir-file="$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/dir" \
+                                 "$(DESTDIR)$(infodir)/foo.info"; \
+                  else true; fi
+
+     When writing the `install' target, you must classify all the
+     commands into three categories: normal ones, "pre-installation"
+     commands and "post-installation" commands.  *Note Install Command
+     Categories::.
+
+`install-html'
+`install-dvi'
+`install-pdf'
+`install-ps'
+     These targets install documentation in formats other than Info;
+     they're intended to be called explicitly by the person installing
+     the package, if that format is desired.  GNU prefers Info files,
+     so these must be installed by the `install' target.
+
+     When you have many documentation files to install, we recommend
+     that you avoid collisions and clutter by arranging for these
+     targets to install in subdirectories of the appropriate
+     installation directory, such as `htmldir'.  As one example, if
+     your package has multiple manuals, and you wish to install HTML
+     documentation with many files (such as the "split" mode output by
+     `makeinfo --html'), you'll certainly want to use subdirectories,
+     or two nodes with the same name in different manuals will
+     overwrite each other.
+
+     Please make these `install-FORMAT' targets invoke the commands for
+     the FORMAT target, for example, by making FORMAT a dependency.
+
+`uninstall'
+     Delete all the installed files--the copies that the `install' and
+     `install-*' targets create.
+
+     This rule should not modify the directories where compilation is
+     done, only the directories where files are installed.
+
+     The uninstallation commands are divided into three categories,
+     just like the installation commands.  *Note Install Command
+     Categories::.
+
+`install-strip'
+     Like `install', but strip the executable files while installing
+     them.  In simple cases, this target can use the `install' target in
+     a simple way:
+
+          install-strip:
+                  $(MAKE) INSTALL_PROGRAM='$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) -s' \
+                          install
+
+     But if the package installs scripts as well as real executables,
+     the `install-strip' target can't just refer to the `install'
+     target; it has to strip the executables but not the scripts.
+
+     `install-strip' should not strip the executables in the build
+     directory which are being copied for installation.  It should only
+     strip the copies that are installed.
+
+     Normally we do not recommend stripping an executable unless you
+     are sure the program has no bugs.  However, it can be reasonable
+     to install a stripped executable for actual execution while saving
+     the unstripped executable elsewhere in case there is a bug.
+
+`clean'
+     Delete all files in the current directory that are normally
+     created by building the program.  Also delete files in other
+     directories if they are created by this makefile.  However, don't
+     delete the files that record the configuration.  Also preserve
+     files that could be made by building, but normally aren't because
+     the distribution comes with them.  There is no need to delete
+     parent directories that were created with `mkdir -p', since they
+     could have existed anyway.
+
+     Delete `.dvi' files here if they are not part of the distribution.
+
+`distclean'
+     Delete all files in the current directory (or created by this
+     makefile) that are created by configuring or building the program.
+     If you have unpacked the source and built the program without
+     creating any other files, `make distclean' should leave only the
+     files that were in the distribution.  However, there is no need to
+     delete parent directories that were created with `mkdir -p', since
+     they could have existed anyway.
+
+`mostlyclean'
+     Like `clean', but may refrain from deleting a few files that people
+     normally don't want to recompile.  For example, the `mostlyclean'
+     target for GCC does not delete `libgcc.a', because recompiling it
+     is rarely necessary and takes a lot of time.
+
+`maintainer-clean'
+     Delete almost everything that can be reconstructed with this
+     Makefile.  This typically includes everything deleted by
+     `distclean', plus more: C source files produced by Bison, tags
+     tables, Info files, and so on.
+
+     The reason we say "almost everything" is that running the command
+     `make maintainer-clean' should not delete `configure' even if
+     `configure' can be remade using a rule in the Makefile.  More
+     generally, `make maintainer-clean' should not delete anything that
+     needs to exist in order to run `configure' and then begin to build
+     the program.  Also, there is no need to delete parent directories
+     that were created with `mkdir -p', since they could have existed
+     anyway.  These are the only exceptions; `maintainer-clean' should
+     delete everything else that can be rebuilt.
+
+     The `maintainer-clean' target is intended to be used by a
+     maintainer of the package, not by ordinary users.  You may need
+     special tools to reconstruct some of the files that `make
+     maintainer-clean' deletes.  Since these files are normally
+     included in the distribution, we don't take care to make them easy
+     to reconstruct.  If you find you need to unpack the full
+     distribution again, don't blame us.
+
+     To help make users aware of this, the commands for the special
+     `maintainer-clean' target should start with these two:
+
+          @echo 'This command is intended for maintainers to use; it'
+          @echo 'deletes files that may need special tools to rebuild.'
+
+`TAGS'
+     Update a tags table for this program.
+
+`info'
+     Generate any Info files needed.  The best way to write the rules
+     is as follows:
+
+          info: foo.info
+
+          foo.info: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+                  $(MAKEINFO) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+
+     You must define the variable `MAKEINFO' in the Makefile.  It should
+     run the `makeinfo' program, which is part of the Texinfo
+     distribution.
+
+     Normally a GNU distribution comes with Info files, and that means
+     the Info files are present in the source directory.  Therefore,
+     the Make rule for an info file should update it in the source
+     directory.  When users build the package, ordinarily Make will not
+     update the Info files because they will already be up to date.
+
+`dvi'
+`html'
+`pdf'
+`ps'
+     Generate documentation files in the given format.  These targets
+     should always exist, but any or all can be a no-op if the given
+     output format cannot be generated.  These targets should not be
+     dependencies of the `all' target; the user must manually invoke
+     them.
+
+     Here's an example rule for generating DVI files from Texinfo:
+
+          dvi: foo.dvi
+
+          foo.dvi: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+                  $(TEXI2DVI) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+
+     You must define the variable `TEXI2DVI' in the Makefile.  It
+     should run the program `texi2dvi', which is part of the Texinfo
+     distribution.  (`texi2dvi' uses TeX to do the real work of
+     formatting. TeX is not distributed with Texinfo.)  Alternatively,
+     write only the dependencies, and allow GNU `make' to provide the
+     command.
+
+     Here's another example, this one for generating HTML from Texinfo:
+
+          html: foo.html
+
+          foo.html: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi
+                  $(TEXI2HTML) $(srcdir)/foo.texi
+
+     Again, you would define the variable `TEXI2HTML' in the Makefile;
+     for example, it might run `makeinfo --no-split --html' (`makeinfo'
+     is part of the Texinfo distribution).
+
+`dist'
+     Create a distribution tar file for this program.  The tar file
+     should be set up so that the file names in the tar file start with
+     a subdirectory name which is the name of the package it is a
+     distribution for.  This name can include the version number.
+
+     For example, the distribution tar file of GCC version 1.40 unpacks
+     into a subdirectory named `gcc-1.40'.
+
+     The easiest way to do this is to create a subdirectory
+     appropriately named, use `ln' or `cp' to install the proper files
+     in it, and then `tar' that subdirectory.
+
+     Compress the tar file with `gzip'.  For example, the actual
+     distribution file for GCC version 1.40 is called `gcc-1.40.tar.gz'.
+     It is ok to support other free compression formats as well.
+
+     The `dist' target should explicitly depend on all non-source files
+     that are in the distribution, to make sure they are up to date in
+     the distribution.  *Note Making Releases: Releases.
+
+`check'
+     Perform self-tests (if any).  The user must build the program
+     before running the tests, but need not install the program; you
+     should write the self-tests so that they work when the program is
+     built but not installed.
+
+   The following targets are suggested as conventional names, for
+programs in which they are useful.
+
+`installcheck'
+     Perform installation tests (if any).  The user must build and
+     install the program before running the tests.  You should not
+     assume that `$(bindir)' is in the search path.
+
+`installdirs'
+     It's useful to add a target named `installdirs' to create the
+     directories where files are installed, and their parent
+     directories.  There is a script called `mkinstalldirs' which is
+     convenient for this; you can find it in the Gnulib package.  You
+     can use a rule like this:
+
+          # Make sure all installation directories (e.g. $(bindir))
+          # actually exist by making them if necessary.
+          installdirs: mkinstalldirs
+                  $(srcdir)/mkinstalldirs $(bindir) $(datadir) \
+                                          $(libdir) $(infodir) \
+                                          $(mandir)
+
+     or, if you wish to support `DESTDIR' (strongly encouraged),
+
+          # Make sure all installation directories (e.g. $(bindir))
+          # actually exist by making them if necessary.
+          installdirs: mkinstalldirs
+                  $(srcdir)/mkinstalldirs \
+                      $(DESTDIR)$(bindir) $(DESTDIR)$(datadir) \
+                      $(DESTDIR)$(libdir) $(DESTDIR)$(infodir) \
+                      $(DESTDIR)$(mandir)
+
+     This rule should not modify the directories where compilation is
+     done.  It should do nothing but create installation directories.

+
+7.2.7 Install Command Categories
+--------------------------------
+
+When writing the `install' target, you must classify all the commands
+into three categories: normal ones, "pre-installation" commands and
+"post-installation" commands.
+
+   Normal commands move files into their proper places, and set their
+modes.  They may not alter any files except the ones that come entirely
+from the package they belong to.
+
+   Pre-installation and post-installation commands may alter other
+files; in particular, they can edit global configuration files or data
+bases.
+
+   Pre-installation commands are typically executed before the normal
+commands, and post-installation commands are typically run after the
+normal commands.
+
+   The most common use for a post-installation command is to run
+`install-info'.  This cannot be done with a normal command, since it
+alters a file (the Info directory) which does not come entirely and
+solely from the package being installed.  It is a post-installation
+command because it needs to be done after the normal command which
+installs the package's Info files.
+
+   Most programs don't need any pre-installation commands, but we have
+the feature just in case it is needed.
+
+   To classify the commands in the `install' rule into these three
+categories, insert "category lines" among them.  A category line
+specifies the category for the commands that follow.
+
+   A category line consists of a tab and a reference to a special Make
+variable, plus an optional comment at the end.  There are three
+variables you can use, one for each category; the variable name
+specifies the category.  Category lines are no-ops in ordinary execution
+because these three Make variables are normally undefined (and you
+_should not_ define them in the makefile).
+
+   Here are the three possible category lines, each with a comment that
+explains what it means:
+
+             $(PRE_INSTALL)     # Pre-install commands follow.
+             $(POST_INSTALL)    # Post-install commands follow.
+             $(NORMAL_INSTALL)  # Normal commands follow.
+
+   If you don't use a category line at the beginning of the `install'
+rule, all the commands are classified as normal until the first category
+line.  If you don't use any category lines, all the commands are
+classified as normal.
+
+   These are the category lines for `uninstall':
+
+             $(PRE_UNINSTALL)     # Pre-uninstall commands follow.
+             $(POST_UNINSTALL)    # Post-uninstall commands follow.
+             $(NORMAL_UNINSTALL)  # Normal commands follow.
+
+   Typically, a pre-uninstall command would be used for deleting entries
+from the Info directory.
+
+   If the `install' or `uninstall' target has any dependencies which
+act as subroutines of installation, then you should start _each_
+dependency's commands with a category line, and start the main target's
+commands with a category line also.  This way, you can ensure that each
+command is placed in the right category regardless of which of the
+dependencies actually run.
+
+   Pre-installation and post-installation commands should not run any
+programs except for these:
+
+     [ basename bash cat chgrp chmod chown cmp cp dd diff echo
+     egrep expand expr false fgrep find getopt grep gunzip gzip
+     hostname install install-info kill ldconfig ln ls md5sum
+     mkdir mkfifo mknod mv printenv pwd rm rmdir sed sort tee
+     test touch true uname xargs yes
+
+   The reason for distinguishing the commands in this way is for the
+sake of making binary packages.  Typically a binary package contains
+all the executables and other files that need to be installed, and has
+its own method of installing them--so it does not need to run the normal
+installation commands.  But installing the binary package does need to
+execute the pre-installation and post-installation commands.
+
+   Programs to build binary packages work by extracting the
+pre-installation and post-installation commands.  Here is one way of
+extracting the pre-installation commands (the `-s' option to `make' is
+needed to silence messages about entering subdirectories):
+
+     make -s -n install -o all \
+           PRE_INSTALL=pre-install \
+           POST_INSTALL=post-install \
+           NORMAL_INSTALL=normal-install \
+       | gawk -f pre-install.awk
+
+where the file `pre-install.awk' could contain this:
+
+     $0 ~ /^(normal-install|post-install)[ \t]*$/ {on = 0}
+     on {print $0}
+     $0 ~ /^pre-install[ \t]*$/ {on = 1}
+

+File: standards.info,  Node: Releases,  Prev: Makefile Conventions,  Up: Managing Releases
+
+7.3 Making Releases
+===================
+
+You should identify each release with a pair of version numbers, a
+major version and a minor.  We have no objection to using more than two
+numbers, but it is very unlikely that you really need them.
+
+   Package the distribution of `Foo version 69.96' up in a gzipped tar
+file with the name `foo-69.96.tar.gz'.  It should unpack into a
+subdirectory named `foo-69.96'.
+
+   Building and installing the program should never modify any of the
+files contained in the distribution.  This means that all the files
+that form part of the program in any way must be classified into "source
+files" and "non-source files".  Source files are written by humans and
+never changed automatically; non-source files are produced from source
+files by programs under the control of the Makefile.
+
+   The distribution should contain a file named `README' which gives
+the name of the package, and a general description of what it does.  It
+is also good to explain the purpose of each of the first-level
+subdirectories in the package, if there are any.  The `README' file
+should either state the version number of the package, or refer to where
+in the package it can be found.
+
+   The `README' file should refer to the file `INSTALL', which should
+contain an explanation of the installation procedure.
+
+   The `README' file should also refer to the file which contains the
+copying conditions.  The GNU GPL, if used, should be in a file called
+`COPYING'.  If the GNU LGPL is used, it should be in a file called
+`COPYING.LESSER'.
+
+   Naturally, all the source files must be in the distribution.  It is
+okay to include non-source files in the distribution along with the
+source files they are generated from, provided they are up-to-date with
+the source they are made from, and machine-independent, so that normal
+building of the distribution will never modify them.  We commonly
+include non-source files produced by Autoconf, Automake, Bison, `lex',
+TeX, and `makeinfo'; this helps avoid unnecessary dependencies between
+our distributions, so that users can install whichever packages they
+want to install.
+
+   Non-source files that might actually be modified by building and
+installing the program should *never* be included in the distribution.
+So if you do distribute non-source files, always make sure they are up
+to date when you make a new distribution.
+
+   Make sure that all the files in the distribution are world-readable,
+and that directories are world-readable and world-searchable (octal
+mode 755).  We used to recommend that all directories in the
+distribution also be world-writable (octal mode 777), because ancient
+versions of `tar' would otherwise not cope when extracting the archive
+as an unprivileged user.  That can easily lead to security issues when
+creating the archive, however, so now we recommend against that.
+
+   Don't include any symbolic links in the distribution itself.  If the
+tar file contains symbolic links, then people cannot even unpack it on
+systems that don't support symbolic links.  Also, don't use multiple
+names for one file in different directories, because certain file
+systems cannot handle this and that prevents unpacking the distribution.
+
+   Try to make sure that all the file names will be unique on MS-DOS.  A
+name on MS-DOS consists of up to 8 characters, optionally followed by a
+period and up to three characters.  MS-DOS will truncate extra
+characters both before and after the period.  Thus, `foobarhacker.c'
+and `foobarhacker.o' are not ambiguous; they are truncated to
+`foobarha.c' and `foobarha.o', which are distinct.
+
+   Include in your distribution a copy of the `texinfo.tex' you used to
+test print any `*.texinfo' or `*.texi' files.
+
+   Likewise, if your program uses small GNU software packages like
+regex, getopt, obstack, or termcap, include them in the distribution
+file.  Leaving them out would make the distribution file a little
+smaller at the expense of possible inconvenience to a user who doesn't
+know what other files to get.

+8 References to Non-Free Software and Documentation
+***************************************************
+
+A GNU program should not recommend, promote, or grant legitimacy to the
+use of any non-free program.  Proprietary software is a social and
+ethical problem, and our aim is to put an end to that problem.  We
+can't stop some people from writing proprietary programs, or stop other
+people from using them, but we can and should refuse to advertise them
+to new potential customers, or to give the public the idea that their
+existence is ethical.
+
+   The GNU definition of free software is found on the GNU web site at
+`http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html', and the definition of
+free documentation is found at
+`http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-doc.html'.  The terms "free" and
+"non-free", used in this document, refer to those definitions.
+
+   A list of important licenses and whether they qualify as free is in
+`http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html'.  If it is not clear
+whether a license qualifies as free, please ask the GNU Project by
+writing to <licensing@gnu.org>.  We will answer, and if the license is
+an important one, we will add it to the list.
+
+   When a non-free program or system is well known, you can mention it
+in passing--that is harmless, since users who might want to use it
+probably already know about it.  For instance, it is fine to explain
+how to build your package on top of some widely used non-free operating
+system, or how to use it together with some widely used non-free
+program.
+
+   However, you should give only the necessary information to help those
+who already use the non-free program to use your program with it--don't
+give, or refer to, any further information about the proprietary
+program, and don't imply that the proprietary program enhances your
+program, or that its existence is in any way a good thing.  The goal
+should be that people already using the proprietary program will get
+the advice they need about how to use your free program with it, while
+people who don't already use the proprietary program will not see
+anything likely to lead them to take an interest in it.
+
+   If a non-free program or system is obscure in your program's domain,
+your program should not mention or support it at all, since doing so
+would tend to popularize the non-free program more than it popularizes
+your program.  (You cannot hope to find many additional users for your
+program among the users of Foobar, if the existence of Foobar is not
+generally known among people who might want to use your program.)
+
+   Sometimes a program is free software in itself but depends on a
+non-free platform in order to run.  For instance, many Java programs
+depend on some non-free Java libraries.  To recommend or promote such a
+program is to promote the other programs it needs.  This is why we are
+careful about listing Java programs in the Free Software Directory: we
+don't want to promote the non-free Java libraries.
+
+   We hope this particular problem with Java will be gone by and by, as
+we replace the remaining non-free standard Java libraries with free
+software, but the general principle will remain the same: don't
+recommend, promote or legitimize programs that depend on non-free
+software to run.
+
+   Some free programs strongly encourage the use of non-free software.
+A typical example is `mplayer'.  It is free software in itself, and the
+free code can handle some kinds of files.  However, `mplayer'
+recommends use of non-free codecs for other kinds of files, and users
+that install `mplayer' are very likely to install those codecs along
+with it.  To recommend `mplayer' is, in effect, to promote use of the
+non-free codecs.
+
+   Thus, you should not recommend programs that strongly encourage the
+use of non-free software.  This is why we do not list `mplayer' in the
+Free Software Directory.
+
+   A GNU package should not refer the user to any non-free documentation
+for free software.  Free documentation that can be included in free
+operating systems is essential for completing the GNU system, or any
+free operating system, so encouraging it is a priority; to recommend
+use of documentation that we are not allowed to include undermines the
+impetus for the community to produce documentation that we can include.
+So GNU packages should never recommend non-free documentation.
+
+   By contrast, it is ok to refer to journal articles and textbooks in
+the comments of a program for explanation of how it functions, even
+though they are non-free.  This is because we don't include such things
+in the GNU system even if they are free--they are outside the scope of
+what a software distribution needs to include.
+
+   Referring to a web site that describes or recommends a non-free
+program is promoting that program, so please do not make links to (or
+mention by name) web sites that contain such material.  This policy is
+relevant particularly for the web pages for a GNU package.
+
+   Following links from nearly any web site can lead eventually to
+non-free software; this is inherent in the nature of the web.  So it
+makes no sense to criticize a site for having such links.  As long as
+the site does not itself recommend a non-free program, there is no need
+to consider the question of the sites that it links to for other
+reasons.
+
+   Thus, for example, you should not refer to AT&T's web site if that
+recommends AT&T's non-free software packages; you should not refer to a
+site that links to AT&T's site presenting it as a place to get some
+non-free program, because that link recommends and legitimizes the
+non-free program.  However, that a site contains a link to AT&T's web
+site for some other purpose (such as long-distance telephone service)
+is not an objection against it.

+     assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+     with or without modifying it, either commercially or
+     noncommercially.  Secondarily, this License preserves for the
+     author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
+     being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
+
+     This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
+     works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
+     It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+     license designed for free software.
+
+     We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
+     free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
+     free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
+     that the software does.  But this License is not limited to
+     software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
+     of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
+     We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
+     instruction or reference.
+
+  1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+     This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
+     that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it
+     can be distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice
+     grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
+     to use that work under the conditions stated herein.  The
+     "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work.  Any member
+     of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you".  You
+     accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a
+     way requiring permission under copyright law.
+
+     A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
+     Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+     modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+     A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
+     of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+     publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
+     subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
+     fall directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document
+     is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
+     explain any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of
+     historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
+     of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
+     regarding them.
+
+     The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
+     titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
+     the notice that says that the Document is released under this
+     License.  If a section does not fit the above definition of
+     Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant.
+     The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections.  If the Document
+     does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.
+
+     The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
+     listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
+     that says that the Document is released under this License.  A
+     Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
+     be at most 25 words.
+
+     A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+     represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+     general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+     straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
+     composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
+     widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
+     text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
+     formats suitable for input to text formatters.  A copy made in an
+     otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of
+     markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent
+     modification by readers is not Transparent.  An image format is
+     not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text.  A
+     copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+     Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+     ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
+     SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
+     standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for
+     human modification.  Examples of transparent image formats include
+     PNG, XCF and JPG.  Opaque formats include proprietary formats that
+     can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or
+     XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
+     available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF
+     produced by some word processors for output purposes only.
+
+     The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+     plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
+     material this License requires to appear in the title page.  For
+     works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
+     Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
+     work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+     The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies
+     of the Document to the public.
+
+     A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
+     whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
+     following text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ
+     stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
+     "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
+     To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
+     Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
+     to this definition.
+
+     The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
+     which states that this License applies to the Document.  These
+     Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
+     this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+     implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
+     has no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+  2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+     You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+     commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+     copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
+     applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
+     add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You
+     may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
+     or further copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However,
+     you may accept compensation in exchange for copies.  If you
+     distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
+     the conditions in section 3.
+
+     You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
+     and you may publicly display copies.
+
+  3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+     If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
+     have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
+     the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
+     enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
+     these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
+     Back-Cover Texts on the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly
+     and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies.  The
+     front cover must present the full title with all words of the
+     title equally prominent and visible.  You may add other material
+     on the covers in addition.  Copying with changes limited to the
+     covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
+     satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
+     other respects.
+
+     If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+     legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+     reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
+     adjacent pages.
+
+     If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
+     numbering more than 100, you must either include a
+     machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
+     state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from
+     which the general network-using public has access to download
+     using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent
+     copy of the Document, free of added material.  If you use the
+     latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
+     begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
+     this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+     location until at least one year after the last time you
+     distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
+     retailers) of that edition to the public.
+
+     It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
+     the Document well before redistributing any large number of
+     copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
+     version of the Document.
+
+  4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+     You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
+     under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
+     release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
+     the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
+     licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
+     whoever possesses a copy of it.  In addition, you must do these
+     things in the Modified Version:
+
+       A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
+          distinct from that of the Document, and from those of
+          previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed
+          in the History section of the Document).  You may use the
+          same title as a previous version if the original publisher of
+          that version gives permission.
+
+       B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
+          entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
+          the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
+          principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
+          authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
+          from this requirement.
+
+       C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+          Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+       D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+       E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+          adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+       F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
+          notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
+          Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
+          the Addendum below.
+
+       G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
+          Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
+          license notice.
+
+       H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+       I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
+          and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
+          authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on
+          the Title Page.  If there is no section Entitled "History" in
+          the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors,
+          and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page,
+          then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in
+          the previous sentence.
+
+       J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
+          for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
+          likewise the network locations given in the Document for
+          previous versions it was based on.  These may be placed in
+          the "History" section.  You may omit a network location for a
+          work that was published at least four years before the
+          Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version
+          it refers to gives permission.
+
+       K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
+          Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the
+          section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
+          acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
+
+       L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+          unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
+          or the equivalent are not considered part of the section
+          titles.
+
+       M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements".  Such a section
+          may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+       N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
+          "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
+          Section.
+
+       O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+     If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+     appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
+     material copied from the Document, you may at your option
+     designate some or all of these sections as invariant.  To do this,
+     add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
+     Version's license notice.  These titles must be distinct from any
+     other section titles.
+
+     You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+     nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+     parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
+     has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
+     definition of a standard.
+
+     You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
+     and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
+     of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one
+     passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
+     added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the
+     Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
+     previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
+     you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
+     replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
+     publisher that added the old one.
+
+     The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
+     License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
+     assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+  5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+     You may combine the Document with other documents released under
+     this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
+     modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
+     all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
+     unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
+     combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
+     their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+     The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+     multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+     copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
+     but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
+     by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
+     original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
+     unique number.  Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
+     the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
+     combined work.
+
+     In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
+     "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
+     Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
+     "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications".  You
+     must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
+
+  6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+     You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
+     documents released under this License, and replace the individual
+     copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
+     that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
+     rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
+     documents in all other respects.
+
+     You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
+     distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
+     a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
+     this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
+     that document.
+
+  7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+     A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
+     separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
+     a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
+     copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
+     legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
+     works permit.  When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
+     License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
+     are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
+
+     If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+     copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
+     of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
+     on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+     electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
+     form.  Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
+     the whole aggregate.
+
+  8. TRANSLATION
+
+     Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+     distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
+     4.  Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+     permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+     translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+     original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
+     translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+     Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
+     include the original English version of this License and the
+     original versions of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a
+     disagreement between the translation and the original version of
+     this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
+     prevail.
+
+     If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+     "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
+     Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
+     actual title.
+
+  9. TERMINATION
+
+     You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
+     except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+     otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
+     and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+
+     However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+     license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+     provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly
+     and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
+     copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
+     reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+     Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+     reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+     violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+     received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
+     that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
+     after your receipt of the notice.
+
+     Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
+     the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from
+     you under this License.  If your rights have been terminated and
+     not permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of
+     the same material does not give you any rights to use it.
+
+ 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+     The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
+     the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
+     versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+     differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
+     `http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/'.
+
+     Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
+     number.  If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
+     version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
+     have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
+     that specified version or of any later version that has been
+     published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If
+     the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
+     you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
+     Free Software Foundation.  If the Document specifies that a proxy
+     can decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
+     proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
+     authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
+
+ 11. RELICENSING
+
+     "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
+     World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
+     provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A
+     public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
+     A "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the
+     site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
+     site.
+
+     "CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
+     license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
+     corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
+     California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
+     published by that same organization.
+
+     "Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
+     in part, as part of another Document.
+
+     An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
+     License, and if all works that were first published under this
+     License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
+     incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
+     texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
+     to November 1, 2008.
+
+     The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
+     site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
+     2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
+
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+====================================================
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
+notices just after the title page:
+
+       Copyright (C)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.
+       Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+       under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
+       or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+       with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
+       Texts.  A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+       Free Documentation License''.
+
+   If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
+Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
+
+         with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
+         the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
+         being LIST.
+
+   If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+situation.
+
+   If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
+permit their use in free software.

+@chapter About the GNU Coding Standards
+
+The GNU Coding Standards were written by Richard Stallman and other GNU
+Project volunteers.  Their purpose is to make the GNU system clean,
+consistent, and easy to install.  This document can also be read as a
+guide to writing portable, robust and reliable programs.  It focuses on
+programs written in C, but many of the rules and principles are useful
+even if you write in another programming language.  The rules often
+state reasons for writing in a certain way.
+
+@cindex where to obtain @code{standards.texi}
+@cindex downloading this manual
+If you did not obtain this file directly from the GNU project and
+recently, please check for a newer version.  You can get the GNU
+Coding Standards from the GNU web server in many
+different formats, including the Texinfo source, PDF, HTML, DVI, plain
+text, and more, at: @uref{http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/}.
+
+If you are maintaining an official GNU package, in addition to this
+document, please read and follow the GNU maintainer information
+(@pxref{Top, , Contents, maintain, Information for Maintainers of GNU
+Software}).
+
+@cindex @code{gnustandards-commit@@gnu.org} mailing list
+If you want to receive diffs for every change to these GNU documents,
+join the mailing list @code{gnustandards-commit@@gnu.org}, via the web
+interface at
+@url{http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustandards-commit}.
+Archives are also available there.
+
+@cindex @code{bug-standards@@gnu.org} email address
+@cindex Savannah repository for gnustandards
+@cindex gnustandards project repository
+Please send corrections or suggestions for this document to
+@email{bug-standards@@gnu.org}.  If you make a suggestion, please
+include a suggested new wording for it, to help us consider the
+suggestion efficiently.  We prefer a context diff to the Texinfo
+source, but if that's difficult for you, you can make a context diff
+for some other version of this document, or propose it in any way that
+makes it clear.  The source repository for this document can be found
+at @url{http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnustandards}.
+
+These standards cover the minimum of what is important when writing a
+GNU package.  Likely, the need for additional standards will come up.
+Sometimes, you might suggest that such standards be added to this
+document.  If you think your standards would be generally useful, please
+do suggest them.
+
+You should also set standards for your package on many questions not
+addressed or not firmly specified here.  The most important point is to
+be self-consistent---try to stick to the conventions you pick, and try
+to document them as much as possible.  That way, your program will be
+more maintainable by others.
+
+The GNU Hello program serves as an example of how to follow the GNU
+coding standards for a trivial program.

+@node Reading Non-Free Code
+@section Referring to Proprietary Programs
+@cindex proprietary programs
+@cindex avoiding proprietary code
+
+Don't in any circumstances refer to Unix source code for or during
+your work on GNU!  (Or to any other proprietary programs.)
+
+If you have a vague recollection of the internals of a Unix program,
+this does not absolutely mean you can't write an imitation of it, but
+do try to organize the imitation internally along different lines,
+because this is likely to make the details of the Unix version
+irrelevant and dissimilar to your results.
+
+For example, Unix utilities were generally optimized to minimize
+memory use; if you go for speed instead, your program will be very
+different.  You could keep the entire input file in memory and scan it
+there instead of using stdio.  Use a smarter algorithm discovered more
+recently than the Unix program.  Eliminate use of temporary files.  Do
+it in one pass instead of two (we did this in the assembler).
+
+Or, on the contrary, emphasize simplicity instead of speed.  For some
+applications, the speed of today's computers makes simpler algorithms
+adequate.
+
+Or go for generality.  For example, Unix programs often have static
+tables or fixed-size strings, which make for arbitrary limits; use
+dynamic allocation instead.  Make sure your program handles NULs and
+other funny characters in the input files.  Add a programming language
+for extensibility and write part of the program in that language.
+
+Or turn some parts of the program into independently usable libraries.
+Or use a simple garbage collector instead of tracking precisely when
+to free memory, or use a new GNU facility such as obstacks.
+
+
+@node Contributions
+@section Accepting Contributions
+@cindex legal papers
+@cindex accepting contributions
+
+If the program you are working on is copyrighted by the Free Software
+Foundation, then when someone else sends you a piece of code to add to
+the program, we need legal papers to use it---just as we asked you to
+sign papers initially.  @emph{Each} person who makes a nontrivial
+contribution to a program must sign some sort of legal papers in order
+for us to have clear title to the program; the main author alone is not
+enough.
+
+So, before adding in any contributions from other people, please tell
+us, so we can arrange to get the papers.  Then wait until we tell you
+that we have received the signed papers, before you actually use the
+contribution.
+
+This applies both before you release the program and afterward.  If
+you receive diffs to fix a bug, and they make significant changes, we
+need legal papers for that change.
+
+This also applies to comments and documentation files.  For copyright
+law, comments and code are just text.  Copyright applies to all kinds of
+text, so we need legal papers for all kinds.
+
+We know it is frustrating to ask for legal papers; it's frustrating for
+us as well.  But if you don't wait, you are going out on a limb---for
+example, what if the contributor's employer won't sign a disclaimer?
+You might have to take that code out again!
+
+You don't need papers for changes of a few lines here or there, since
+they are not significant for copyright purposes.  Also, you don't need
+papers if all you get from the suggestion is some ideas, not actual code
+which you use.  For example, if someone sent you one implementation, but
+you write a different implementation of the same idea, you don't need to
+get papers.
+
+The very worst thing is if you forget to tell us about the other
+contributor.  We could be very embarrassed in court some day as a
+result.
+
+We have more detailed advice for maintainers of GNU packages.  If you
+have reached the stage of maintaining a GNU program (whether released
+or not), please take a look: @pxref{Legal Matters,,, maintain,
+Information for GNU Maintainers}.
+
+
+@node Trademarks
+@section Trademarks
+@cindex trademarks
+
+Please do not include any trademark acknowledgements in GNU software
+packages or documentation.
+
+Trademark acknowledgements are the statements that such-and-such is a
+trademark of so-and-so.  The GNU Project has no objection to the basic
+idea of trademarks, but these acknowledgements feel like kowtowing,
+and there is no legal requirement for them, so we don't use them.
+
+What is legally required, as regards other people's trademarks, is to
+avoid using them in ways which a reader might reasonably understand as
+naming or labeling our own programs or activities.  For example, since
+``Objective C'' is (or at least was) a trademark, we made sure to say
+that we provide a ``compiler for the Objective C language'' rather
+than an ``Objective C compiler''.  The latter would have been meant as
+a shorter way of saying the former, but it does not explicitly state
+the relationship, so it could be misinterpreted as using ``Objective
+C'' as a label for the compiler rather than for the language.
+
+Please don't use ``win'' as an abbreviation for Microsoft Windows in
+GNU software or documentation.  In hacker terminology, calling
+something a ``win'' is a form of praise.  If you wish to praise
+Microsoft Windows when speaking on your own, by all means do so, but
+not in GNU software.  Usually we write the name ``Windows'' in full,
+but when brevity is very important (as in file names and sometimes
+symbol names), we abbreviate it to ``w''.  For instance, the files and
+functions in Emacs that deal with Windows start with @samp{w32}.

+
+@node Source Language
+@section Which Languages to Use
+@cindex programming languages
+
+When you want to use a language that gets compiled and runs at high
+speed, the best language to use is C.  Using another language is like
+using a non-standard feature: it will cause trouble for users.  Even if
+GCC supports the other language, users may find it inconvenient to have
+to install the compiler for that other language in order to build your
+program.  For example, if you write your program in C++, people will
+have to install the GNU C++ compiler in order to compile your program.
+
+C has one other advantage over C++ and other compiled languages: more
+people know C, so more people will find it easy to read and modify the
+program if it is written in C.
+
+So in general it is much better to use C, rather than the
+comparable alternatives.
+
+But there are two exceptions to that conclusion:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+It is no problem to use another language to write a tool specifically
+intended for use with that language.  That is because the only people
+who want to build the tool will be those who have installed the other
+language anyway.
+
+@item
+If an application is of interest only to a narrow part of the community,
+then the question of which language it is written in has less effect on
+other people, so you may as well please yourself.
+@end itemize
+
+Many programs are designed to be extensible: they include an interpreter
+for a language that is higher level than C.  Often much of the program
+is written in that language, too.  The Emacs editor pioneered this
+technique.
+
+@cindex Guile
+@cindex GNOME and Guile
+The standard extensibility interpreter for GNU software is Guile
+(@uref{http://www.gnu.org/@/software/@/guile/}), which implements the
+language Scheme (an especially clean and simple dialect of Lisp).
+Guile also includes bindings for GTK+/GNOME, making it practical to
+write modern GUI functionality within Guile.  We don't reject programs
+written in other ``scripting languages'' such as Perl and Python, but
+using Guile is very important for the overall consistency of the GNU
+system.
+
+
+@node Compatibility
+@section Compatibility with Other Implementations
+@cindex compatibility with C and @sc{posix} standards
+@cindex @sc{posix} compatibility
+
+With occasional exceptions, utility programs and libraries for GNU
+should be upward compatible with those in Berkeley Unix, and upward
+compatible with Standard C if Standard C specifies their
+behavior, and upward compatible with @sc{posix} if @sc{posix} specifies
+their behavior.
+
+When these standards conflict, it is useful to offer compatibility
+modes for each of them.
+
+@cindex options for compatibility
+Standard C and @sc{posix} prohibit many kinds of extensions.  Feel
+free to make the extensions anyway, and include a @samp{--ansi},
+@samp{--posix}, or @samp{--compatible} option to turn them off.
+However, if the extension has a significant chance of breaking any real
+programs or scripts, then it is not really upward compatible.  So you
+should try to redesign its interface to make it upward compatible.
+
+@cindex @code{POSIXLY_CORRECT}, environment variable
+Many GNU programs suppress extensions that conflict with @sc{posix} if the
+environment variable @code{POSIXLY_CORRECT} is defined (even if it is
+defined with a null value).  Please make your program recognize this
+variable if appropriate.
+
+When a feature is used only by users (not by programs or command
+files), and it is done poorly in Unix, feel free to replace it
+completely with something totally different and better.  (For example,
+@code{vi} is replaced with Emacs.)  But it is nice to offer a compatible
+feature as well.  (There is a free @code{vi} clone, so we offer it.)
+
+Additional useful features are welcome regardless of whether
+there is any precedent for them.
+
+@node Using Extensions
+@section Using Non-standard Features
+@cindex non-standard extensions
+
+Many GNU facilities that already exist support a number of convenient
+extensions over the comparable Unix facilities.  Whether to use these
+extensions in implementing your program is a difficult question.
+
+On the one hand, using the extensions can make a cleaner program.
+On the other hand, people will not be able to build the program
+unless the other GNU tools are available.  This might cause the
+program to work on fewer kinds of machines.
+
+With some extensions, it might be easy to provide both alternatives.
+For example, you can define functions with a ``keyword'' @code{INLINE}
+and define that as a macro to expand into either @code{inline} or
+nothing, depending on the compiler.
+
+In general, perhaps it is best not to use the extensions if you can
+straightforwardly do without them, but to use the extensions if they
+are a big improvement.
+
+An exception to this rule are the large, established programs (such as
+Emacs) which run on a great variety of systems.  Using GNU extensions in
+such programs would make many users unhappy, so we don't do that.
+
+Another exception is for programs that are used as part of compilation:
+anything that must be compiled with other compilers in order to
+bootstrap the GNU compilation facilities.  If these require the GNU
+compiler, then no one can compile them without having them installed
+already.  That would be extremely troublesome in certain cases.
+
+@node Standard C
+@section Standard C and Pre-Standard C
+@cindex @sc{ansi} C standard
+
+1989 Standard C is widespread enough now that it is ok to use its
+features in new programs.  There is one exception: do not ever use the
+``trigraph'' feature of Standard C.
+
+1999 Standard C is not widespread yet, so please do not require its
+features in programs.  It is ok to use its features if they are present.
+
+However, it is easy to support pre-standard compilers in most programs,
+so if you know how to do that, feel free.  If a program you are
+maintaining has such support, you should try to keep it working.
+
+@cindex function prototypes
+To support pre-standard C, instead of writing function definitions in
+standard prototype form,
+
+@example
+int
+foo (int x, int y)
+@dots{}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+write the definition in pre-standard style like this,
+
+@example
+int
+foo (x, y)
+     int x, y;
+@dots{}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+and use a separate declaration to specify the argument prototype:
+
+@example
+int foo (int, int);
+@end example
+
+You need such a declaration anyway, in a header file, to get the benefit
+of prototypes in all the files where the function is called.  And once
+you have the declaration, you normally lose nothing by writing the
+function definition in the pre-standard style.
+
+This technique does not work for integer types narrower than @code{int}.
+If you think of an argument as being of a type narrower than @code{int},
+declare it as @code{int} instead.
+
+There are a few special cases where this technique is hard to use.  For
+example, if a function argument needs to hold the system type
+@code{dev_t}, you run into trouble, because @code{dev_t} is shorter than
+@code{int} on some machines; but you cannot use @code{int} instead,
+because @code{dev_t} is wider than @code{int} on some machines.  There
+is no type you can safely use on all machines in a non-standard
+definition.  The only way to support non-standard C and pass such an
+argument is to check the width of @code{dev_t} using Autoconf and choose
+the argument type accordingly.  This may not be worth the trouble.
+
+In order to support pre-standard compilers that do not recognize
+prototypes, you may want to use a preprocessor macro like this:
+
+@example
+/* Declare the prototype for a general external function.  */
+#if defined (__STDC__) || defined (WINDOWSNT)
+#define P_(proto) proto
+#else
+#define P_(proto) ()
+#endif
+@end example
+
+@node Conditional Compilation
+@section Conditional Compilation
+
+When supporting configuration options already known when building your
+program we prefer using @code{if (... )} over conditional compilation,
+as in the former case the compiler is able to perform more extensive
+checking of all possible code paths.
+
+For example, please write
+
+@smallexample
+  if (HAS_FOO)
+    ...
+  else
+    ...
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+instead of:
+
+@smallexample
+  #ifdef HAS_FOO
+    ...
+  #else

+A modern compiler such as GCC will generate exactly the same code in
+both cases, and we have been using similar techniques with good success
+in several projects.  Of course, the former method assumes that
+@code{HAS_FOO} is defined as either 0 or 1.
+
+While this is not a silver bullet solving all portability problems,
+and is not always appropriate, following this policy would have saved
+GCC developers many hours, or even days, per year.
+
+In the case of function-like macros like @code{REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE} in
+GCC which cannot be simply used in @code{if (...)} statements, there is
+an easy workaround.  Simply introduce another macro
+@code{HAS_REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE} as in the following example:

+@node Non-GNU Standards
+@section Non-GNU Standards
+
+The GNU Project regards standards published by other organizations as
+suggestions, not orders.  We consider those standards, but we do not
+``obey'' them.  In developing a GNU program, you should implement
+an outside standard's specifications when that makes the GNU system
+better overall in an objective sense.  When it doesn't, you shouldn't.
+
+In most cases, following published standards is convenient for
+users---it means that their programs or scripts will work more
+portably.  For instance, GCC implements nearly all the features of
+Standard C as specified by that standard.  C program developers would
+be unhappy if it did not.  And GNU utilities mostly follow
+specifications of POSIX.2; shell script writers and users would be
+unhappy if our programs were incompatible.
+
+But we do not follow either of these specifications rigidly, and there
+are specific points on which we decided not to follow them, so as to
+make the GNU system better for users.
+
+For instance, Standard C says that nearly all extensions to C are
+prohibited.  How silly!  GCC implements many extensions, some of which
+were later adopted as part of the standard.  If you want these
+constructs to give an error message as ``required'' by the standard,
+you must specify @samp{--pedantic}, which was implemented only so that
+we can say ``GCC is a 100% implementation of the standard'', not
+because there is any reason to actually use it.
+
+POSIX.2 specifies that @samp{df} and @samp{du} must output sizes by
+default in units of 512 bytes.  What users want is units of 1k, so
+that is what we do by default.  If you want the ridiculous behavior
+``required'' by POSIX, you must set the environment variable
+@samp{POSIXLY_CORRECT} (which was originally going to be named
+@samp{POSIX_ME_HARDER}).
+
+GNU utilities also depart from the letter of the POSIX.2 specification
+when they support long-named command-line options, and intermixing
+options with ordinary arguments.  This minor incompatibility with
+POSIX is never a problem in practice, and it is very useful.
+
+In particular, don't reject a new feature, or remove an old one,
+merely because a standard says it is ``forbidden'' or ``deprecated''.
+
+
+@node Semantics
+@section Writing Robust Programs
+
+@cindex arbitrary limits on data
+Avoid arbitrary limits on the length or number of @emph{any} data
+structure, including file names, lines, files, and symbols, by allocating
+all data structures dynamically.  In most Unix utilities, ``long lines
+are silently truncated''.  This is not acceptable in a GNU utility.
+
+@cindex @code{NUL} characters
+@findex libiconv
+Utilities reading files should not drop NUL characters, or any other
+nonprinting characters @emph{including those with codes above 0177}.
+The only sensible exceptions would be utilities specifically intended
+for interface to certain types of terminals or printers that can't
+handle those characters.  Whenever possible, try to make programs work
+properly with sequences of bytes that represent multibyte characters;
+UTF-8 is the most important.
+
+@cindex error messages
+Check every system call for an error return, unless you know you wish
+to ignore errors.  Include the system error text (from @code{perror},
+@code{strerror}, or equivalent) in @emph{every} error message
+resulting from a failing system call, as well as the name of the file
+if any and the name of the utility.  Just ``cannot open foo.c'' or
+``stat failed'' is not sufficient.
+
+@cindex @code{malloc} return value
+@cindex memory allocation failure
+Check every call to @code{malloc} or @code{realloc} to see if it
+returned zero.  Check @code{realloc} even if you are making the block
+smaller; in a system that rounds block sizes to a power of 2,
+@code{realloc} may get a different block if you ask for less space.
+
+In Unix, @code{realloc} can destroy the storage block if it returns
+zero.  GNU @code{realloc} does not have this bug: if it fails, the
+original block is unchanged.  Feel free to assume the bug is fixed.  If
+you wish to run your program on Unix, and wish to avoid lossage in this
+case, you can use the GNU @code{malloc}.
+
+You must expect @code{free} to alter the contents of the block that was
+freed.  Anything you want to fetch from the block, you must fetch before
+calling @code{free}.
+
+If @code{malloc} fails in a noninteractive program, make that a fatal
+error.  In an interactive program (one that reads commands from the
+user), it is better to abort the command and return to the command
+reader loop.  This allows the user to kill other processes to free up
+virtual memory, and then try the command again.
+
+@cindex command-line arguments, decoding
+Use @code{getopt_long} to decode arguments, unless the argument syntax
+makes this unreasonable.
+
+When static storage is to be written in during program execution, use
+explicit C code to initialize it.  Reserve C initialized declarations
+for data that will not be changed.
+@c ADR: why?
+
+Try to avoid low-level interfaces to obscure Unix data structures (such
+as file directories, utmp, or the layout of kernel memory), since these
+are less likely to work compatibly.  If you need to find all the files
+in a directory, use @code{readdir} or some other high-level interface.
+These are supported compatibly by GNU.
+
+@cindex signal handling
+The preferred signal handling facilities are the BSD variant of
+@code{signal}, and the @sc{posix} @code{sigaction} function; the
+alternative USG @code{signal} interface is an inferior design.
+
+Nowadays, using the @sc{posix} signal functions may be the easiest way
+to make a program portable.  If you use @code{signal}, then on GNU/Linux
+systems running GNU libc version 1, you should include
+@file{bsd/signal.h} instead of @file{signal.h}, so as to get BSD
+behavior.  It is up to you whether to support systems where
+@code{signal} has only the USG behavior, or give up on them.
+
+@cindex impossible conditions
+In error checks that detect ``impossible'' conditions, just abort.
+There is usually no point in printing any message.  These checks
+indicate the existence of bugs.  Whoever wants to fix the bugs will have
+to read the source code and run a debugger.  So explain the problem with
+comments in the source.  The relevant data will be in variables, which
+are easy to examine with the debugger, so there is no point moving them
+elsewhere.
+
+Do not use a count of errors as the exit status for a program.
+@emph{That does not work}, because exit status values are limited to 8
+bits (0 through 255).  A single run of the program might have 256
+errors; if you try to return 256 as the exit status, the parent process
+will see 0 as the status, and it will appear that the program succeeded.
+
+@cindex temporary files
+@cindex @code{TMPDIR} environment variable
+If you make temporary files, check the @code{TMPDIR} environment
+variable; if that variable is defined, use the specified directory
+instead of @file{/tmp}.
+
+In addition, be aware that there is a possible security problem when
+creating temporary files in world-writable directories.  In C, you can
+avoid this problem by creating temporary files in this manner:
+
+@example
+fd = open (filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0600);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+or by using the @code{mkstemps} function from Gnulib
+(@pxref{mkstemps,,, gnulib, Gnulib}).
+
+In bash, use @code{set -C} (long name @code{noclobber}) to avoid this
+problem.  In addition, the @code{mktemp} utility is a more general
+solution for creating temporary files from shell scripts
+(@pxref{mktemp invocation,,, coreutils, GNU Coreutils}).
+
+
+@node Libraries
+@section Library Behavior
+@cindex libraries
+
+Try to make library functions reentrant.  If they need to do dynamic
+storage allocation, at least try to avoid any nonreentrancy aside from
+that of @code{malloc} itself.
+
+Here are certain name conventions for libraries, to avoid name
+conflicts.
+
+Choose a name prefix for the library, more than two characters long.
+All external function and variable names should start with this
+prefix.  In addition, there should only be one of these in any given
+library member.  This usually means putting each one in a separate
+source file.
+
+An exception can be made when two external symbols are always used
+together, so that no reasonable program could use one without the
+other; then they can both go in the same file.
+
+External symbols that are not documented entry points for the user
+should have names beginning with @samp{_}.  The @samp{_} should be
+followed by the chosen name prefix for the library, to prevent
+collisions with other libraries.  These can go in the same files with
+user entry points if you like.
+
+Static functions and variables can be used as you like and need not
+fit any naming convention.
+
+@node Errors
+@section Formatting Error Messages
+@cindex formatting error messages
+@cindex error messages, formatting
+
+Error messages from compilers should look like this:
+
+@example
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{lineno}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If you want to mention the column number, use one of these formats:
+
+@example
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{lineno}:@var{column}: @var{message}
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{lineno}.@var{column}: @var{message}
+
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Line numbers should start from 1 at the beginning of the file, and
+column numbers should start from 1 at the beginning of the line.
+(Both of these conventions are chosen for compatibility.)  Calculate
+column numbers assuming that space and all ASCII printing characters
+have equal width, and assuming tab stops every 8 columns.  For
+non-ASCII characters, Unicode character widths should be used when in
+a UTF-8 locale; GNU libc and GNU gnulib provide suitable
+@code{wcwidth} functions.
+
+The error message can also give both the starting and ending positions
+of the erroneous text.  There are several formats so that you can
+avoid redundant information such as a duplicate line number.
+Here are the possible formats:
+
+@example
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{line1}.@var{column1}-@var{line2}.@var{column2}: @var{message}
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{line1}.@var{column1}-@var{column2}: @var{message}
+@var{sourcefile}:@var{line1}-@var{line2}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+When an error is spread over several files, you can use this format:
+
+@example
+@var{file1}:@var{line1}.@var{column1}-@var{file2}:@var{line2}.@var{column2}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+Error messages from other noninteractive programs should look like this:
+
+@example
+@var{program}:@var{sourcefile}:@var{lineno}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+when there is an appropriate source file, or like this:
+
+@example
+@var{program}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+when there is no relevant source file.
+
+If you want to mention the column number, use this format:
+
+@example
+@var{program}:@var{sourcefile}:@var{lineno}:@var{column}: @var{message}
+@end example
+
+In an interactive program (one that is reading commands from a
+terminal), it is better not to include the program name in an error
+message.  The place to indicate which program is running is in the
+prompt or with the screen layout.  (When the same program runs with
+input from a source other than a terminal, it is not interactive and
+would do best to print error messages using the noninteractive style.)
+
+The string @var{message} should not begin with a capital letter when
+it follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn't the
+beginning of a sentence.  (The sentence conceptually starts at the
+beginning of the line.)  Also, it should not end with a period.
+
+Error messages from interactive programs, and other messages such as
+usage messages, should start with a capital letter.  But they should not
+end with a period.
+
+@node User Interfaces
+@section Standards for Interfaces Generally
+
+@cindex program name and its behavior
+@cindex behavior, dependent on program's name
+Please don't make the behavior of a utility depend on the name used
+to invoke it.  It is useful sometimes to make a link to a utility
+with a different name, and that should not change what it does.
+
+Instead, use a run time option or a compilation switch or both
+to select among the alternate behaviors.
+
+@cindex output device and program's behavior
+Likewise, please don't make the behavior of the program depend on the
+type of output device it is used with.  Device independence is an
+important principle of the system's design; do not compromise it merely
+to save someone from typing an option now and then.  (Variation in error
+message syntax when using a terminal is ok, because that is a side issue
+that people do not depend on.)
+
+If you think one behavior is most useful when the output is to a
+terminal, and another is most useful when the output is a file or a
+pipe, then it is usually best to make the default behavior the one that
+is useful with output to a terminal, and have an option for the other
+behavior.
+
+Compatibility requires certain programs to depend on the type of output
+device.  It would be disastrous if @code{ls} or @code{sh} did not do so
+in the way all users expect.  In some of these cases, we supplement the
+program with a preferred alternate version that does not depend on the
+output device type.  For example, we provide a @code{dir} program much
+like @code{ls} except that its default output format is always
+multi-column format.
+
+
+@node Graphical Interfaces
+@section Standards for Graphical Interfaces
+@cindex graphical user interface
+@cindex interface styles
+@cindex user interface styles
+
+@cindex GTK+
+When you write a program that provides a graphical user interface,
+please make it work with the X Window System and the GTK+ toolkit
+unless the functionality specifically requires some alternative (for
+example, ``displaying jpeg images while in console mode'').
+
+In addition, please provide a command-line interface to control the
+functionality.  (In many cases, the graphical user interface can be a
+separate program which invokes the command-line program.)  This is
+so that the same jobs can be done from scripts.
+
+@cindex CORBA
+@cindex GNOME
+@cindex D-bus
+@cindex keyboard interface
+@cindex library interface
+Please also consider providing a D-bus interface for use from other
+running programs, such as within GNOME.  (GNOME used to use CORBA
+for this, but that is being phased out.)  In addition, consider
+providing a library interface (for use from C), and perhaps a
+keyboard-driven console interface (for use by users from console
+mode).  Once you are doing the work to provide the functionality and
+the graphical interface, these won't be much extra work.
+
+
+@node Command-Line Interfaces
+@section Standards for Command Line Interfaces
+@cindex command-line interface
+
+@findex getopt
+It is a good idea to follow the @sc{posix} guidelines for the
+command-line options of a program.  The easiest way to do this is to use
+@code{getopt} to parse them.  Note that the GNU version of @code{getopt}
+will normally permit options anywhere among the arguments unless the
+special argument @samp{--} is used.  This is not what @sc{posix}
+specifies; it is a GNU extension.
+
+@cindex long-named options
+Please define long-named options that are equivalent to the
+single-letter Unix-style options.  We hope to make GNU more user
+friendly this way.  This is easy to do with the GNU function
+@code{getopt_long}.
+
+One of the advantages of long-named options is that they can be
+consistent from program to program.  For example, users should be able
+to expect the ``verbose'' option of any GNU program which has one, to be
+spelled precisely @samp{--verbose}.  To achieve this uniformity, look at
+the table of common long-option names when you choose the option names
+for your program (@pxref{Option Table}).
+
+It is usually a good idea for file names given as ordinary arguments to
+be input files only; any output files would be specified using options
+(preferably @samp{-o} or @samp{--output}).  Even if you allow an output
+file name as an ordinary argument for compatibility, try to provide an
+option as another way to specify it.  This will lead to more consistency
+among GNU utilities, and fewer idiosyncrasies for users to remember.
+
+@cindex standard command-line options
+@cindex options, standard command-line
+@cindex CGI programs, standard options for
+@cindex PATH_INFO, specifying standard options as
+All programs should support two standard options: @samp{--version}
+and @samp{--help}.  CGI programs should accept these as command-line
+options, and also if given as the @env{PATH_INFO}; for instance,
+visiting @url{http://example.org/p.cgi/--help} in a browser should
+output the same information as invoking @samp{p.cgi --help} from the
+command line.
+
+@menu
+* --version::       The standard output for --version.
+* --help::          The standard output for --help.
+@end menu
+
+@node --version
+@subsection @option{--version}
+
+@cindex @samp{--version} output
+
+The standard @code{--version} option should direct the program to
+print information about its name, version, origin and legal status,
+all on standard output, and then exit successfully.  Other options and
+arguments should be ignored once this is seen, and the program should
+not perform its normal function.
+
+@cindex canonical name of a program
+@cindex program's canonical name
+The first line is meant to be easy for a program to parse; the version
+number proper starts after the last space.  In addition, it contains
+the canonical name for this program, in this format:
+
+@example
+GNU Emacs 19.30
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The program's name should be a constant string; @emph{don't} compute it
+from @code{argv[0]}.  The idea is to state the standard or canonical
+name for the program, not its file name.  There are other ways to find
+out the precise file name where a command is found in @code{PATH}.
+
+If the program is a subsidiary part of a larger package, mention the
+package name in parentheses, like this:
+
+@example
+emacsserver (GNU Emacs) 19.30
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+If the package has a version number which is different from this
+program's version number, you can mention the package version number
+just before the close-parenthesis.
+
+If you @emph{need} to mention the version numbers of libraries which
+are distributed separately from the package which contains this program,
+you can do so by printing an additional line of version info for each
+library you want to mention.  Use the same format for these lines as for
+the first line.
+
+Please do not mention all of the libraries that the program uses ``just
+for completeness''---that would produce a lot of unhelpful clutter.
+Please mention library version numbers only if you find in practice that
+they are very important to you in debugging.
+
+The following line, after the version number line or lines, should be a
+copyright notice.  If more than one copyright notice is called for, put
+each on a separate line.
+
+Next should follow a line stating the license, preferably using one of
+abbreviations below, and a brief statement that the program is free
+software, and that users are free to copy and change it.  Also mention
+that there is no warranty, to the extent permitted by law.  See
+recommended wording below.
+
+It is ok to finish the output with a list of the major authors of the
+program, as a way of giving credit.
+
+Here's an example of output that follows these rules:
+
+@smallexample
+GNU hello 2.3
+Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>
+This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.
+There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.
+@end smallexample
+
+You should adapt this to your program, of course, filling in the proper
+year, copyright holder, name of program, and the references to
+distribution terms, and changing the rest of the wording as necessary.
+
+This copyright notice only needs to mention the most recent year in
+which changes were made---there's no need to list the years for previous
+versions' changes.  You don't have to mention the name of the program in
+these notices, if that is inconvenient, since it appeared in the first
+line.  (The rules are different for copyright notices in source files;
+@pxref{Copyright Notices,,,maintain,Information for GNU Maintainers}.)
+
+Translations of the above lines must preserve the validity of the
+copyright notices (@pxref{Internationalization}).  If the translation's
+character set supports it, the @samp{(C)} should be replaced with the
+copyright symbol, as follows:
+
+@ifinfo
+(the official copyright symbol, which is the letter C in a circle);
+@end ifinfo
+@ifnotinfo
+@copyright{}
+@end ifnotinfo
+
+Write the word ``Copyright'' exactly like that, in English.  Do not
+translate it into another language.  International treaties recognize
+the English word ``Copyright''; translations into other languages do not
+have legal significance.
+
+Finally, here is the table of our suggested license abbreviations.
+Any abbreviation can be followed by @samp{v@var{version}[+]}, meaning
+that particular version, or later versions with the @samp{+}, as shown
+above.
+
+In the case of exceptions for extra permissions with the GPL, we use
+@samp{/} for a separator; the version number can follow the license
+abbreviation as usual, as in the examples below.

+@cindex plug-ins
+@cindex dynamic plug-ins
+
+Another aspect of keeping free programs free is encouraging
+development of free plug-ins, and discouraging development of
+proprietary plug-ins.  Many GNU programs will not have anything like
+plug-ins at all, but those that do should follow these
+practices.
+
+First, the general plug-in architecture design should closely tie the
+plug-in to the original code, such that the plug-in and the base
+program are parts of one extended program.  For GCC, for example,
+plug-ins receive and modify GCC's internal data structures, and so
+clearly form an extended program with the base GCC.
+
+@vindex plugin_is_GPL_compatible
+Second, you should require plug-in developers to affirm that their
+plug-ins are released under an appropriate license.  This should be
+enforced with a simple programmatic check.  For GCC, again for
+example, a plug-in must define the global symbol
+@code{plugin_is_GPL_compatible}, thus asserting that the plug-in is
+released under a GPL-compatible license (@pxref{Plugins,, Plugins,
+gccint, GCC Internals}).
+
+By adding this check to your program you are not creating a new legal
+requirement.  The GPL itself requires plug-ins to be free software,
+licensed compatibly.  As long as you have followed the first rule above
+to keep plug-ins closely tied to your original program, the GPL and AGPL
+already require those plug-ins to be released under a compatible
+license.  The symbol definition in the plug-in---or whatever equivalent
+works best in your program---makes it harder for anyone who might
+distribute proprietary plug-ins to legally defend themselves.  If a case
+about this got to court, we can point to that symbol as evidence that
+the plug-in developer understood that the license had this requirement.

+@node Option Table

+@cindex long option names
+@cindex table of long options
+
+Here is a table of long options used by GNU programs.  It is surely
+incomplete, but we aim to list all the options that a new program might
+want to be compatible with.  If you use names not already in the table,
+please send @email{bug-standards@@gnu.org} a list of them, with their
+meanings, so we can update the table.
+
+@c Please leave newlines between items in this table; it's much easier
+@c to update when it isn't completely squashed together and unreadable.
+@c When there is more than one short option for a long option name, put
+@c a semicolon between the lists of the programs that use them, not a
+@c period.   --friedman

+@node Memory Usage
+@section Memory Usage
+@cindex memory usage
+
+If a program typically uses just a few meg of memory, don't bother making any
+effort to reduce memory usage.  For example, if it is impractical for
+other reasons to operate on files more than a few meg long, it is
+reasonable to read entire input files into memory to operate on them.
+
+However, for programs such as @code{cat} or @code{tail}, that can
+usefully operate on very large files, it is important to avoid using a
+technique that would artificially limit the size of files it can handle.
+If a program works by lines and could be applied to arbitrary
+user-supplied input files, it should keep only a line in memory, because
+this is not very hard and users will want to be able to operate on input
+files that are bigger than will fit in memory all at once.
+
+If your program creates complicated data structures, just make them in
+memory and give a fatal error if @code{malloc} returns zero.
+
+@pindex valgrind
+@cindex memory leak
+Memory analysis tools such as @command{valgrind} can be useful, but
+don't complicate a program merely to avoid their false alarms.  For
+example, if memory is used until just before a process exits, don't
+free it simply to silence such a tool.
+
+
+@node File Usage
+@section File Usage
+@cindex file usage
+
+Programs should be prepared to operate when @file{/usr} and @file{/etc}
+are read-only file systems.  Thus, if the program manages log files,
+lock files, backup files, score files, or any other files which are
+modified for internal purposes, these files should not be stored in
+@file{/usr} or @file{/etc}.
+
+There are two exceptions.  @file{/etc} is used to store system
+configuration information; it is reasonable for a program to modify
+files in @file{/etc} when its job is to update the system configuration.
+Also, if the user explicitly asks to modify one file in a directory, it
+is reasonable for the program to store other files in the same
+directory.

+@node Formatting
+@section Formatting Your Source Code
+@cindex formatting source code
+
+@cindex open brace
+@cindex braces, in C source
+@cindex function definitions, formatting
+It is important to put the open-brace that starts the body of a C
+function in column one, so that they will start a defun.  Several
+tools look for open-braces in column one to find the beginnings of C
+functions.  These tools will not work on code not formatted that way.
+
+Avoid putting open-brace, open-parenthesis or open-bracket in column
+one when they are inside a function, so that they won't start a defun.
+The open-brace that starts a @code{struct} body can go in column one
+if you find it useful to treat that definition as a defun.
+
+It is also important for function definitions to start the name of the
+function in column one.  This helps people to search for function
+definitions, and may also help certain tools recognize them.  Thus,
+using Standard C syntax, the format is this:
+
+@example
+static char *
+concat (char *s1, char *s2)
+@{
+  @dots{}
+@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+or, if you want to use traditional C syntax, format the definition like
+this:
+
+@example
+static char *
+concat (s1, s2)        /* Name starts in column one here */
+     char *s1, *s2;
+@{                     /* Open brace in column one here */
+  @dots{}
+@}
+@end example
+
+In Standard C, if the arguments don't fit nicely on one line,
+split it like this:
+
+@example
+int
+lots_of_args (int an_integer, long a_long, short a_short,
+              double a_double, float a_float)
+@dots{}
+@end example
+
+@cindex @code{struct} types, formatting
+@cindex @code{enum} types, formatting
+For @code{struct} and @code{enum} types, likewise put the braces in
+column one, unless the whole contents fits on one line:
+
+@example
+struct foo
+@{
+  int a, b;
+@}
+@exdent @r{or}
+struct foo @{ int a, b; @}
+@end example
+
+The rest of this section gives our recommendations for other aspects of
+C formatting style, which is also the default style of the @code{indent}
+program in version 1.2 and newer.  It corresponds to the options
+
+@smallexample
+-nbad -bap -nbc -bbo -bl -bli2 -bls -ncdb -nce -cp1 -cs -di2
+-ndj -nfc1 -nfca -hnl -i2 -ip5 -lp -pcs -psl -nsc -nsob
+@end smallexample
+
+We don't think of these recommendations as requirements, because it
+causes no problems for users if two different programs have different
+formatting styles.
+
+But whatever style you use, please use it consistently, since a mixture
+of styles within one program tends to look ugly.  If you are
+contributing changes to an existing program, please follow the style of
+that program.
+
+For the body of the function, our recommended style looks like this:
+
+@example
+if (x < foo (y, z))
+  haha = bar[4] + 5;
+else
+  @{
+    while (z)
+      @{
+        haha += foo (z, z);
+        z--;
+      @}
+    return ++x + bar ();
+  @}
+@end example
+
+@cindex spaces before open-paren
+We find it easier to read a program when it has spaces before the
+open-parentheses and after the commas.  Especially after the commas.
+
+When you split an expression into multiple lines, split it
+before an operator, not after one.  Here is the right way:
+
+@cindex expressions, splitting
+@example
+if (foo_this_is_long && bar > win (x, y, z)
+    && remaining_condition)
+@end example
+
+Try to avoid having two operators of different precedence at the same
+level of indentation.  For example, don't write this:
+
+@example
+mode = (inmode[j] == VOIDmode
+        || GET_MODE_SIZE (outmode[j]) > GET_MODE_SIZE (inmode[j])
+        ? outmode[j] : inmode[j]);
+@end example
+
+Instead, use extra parentheses so that the indentation shows the nesting:
+
+@example
+mode = ((inmode[j] == VOIDmode
+         || (GET_MODE_SIZE (outmode[j]) > GET_MODE_SIZE (inmode[j])))
+        ? outmode[j] : inmode[j]);
+@end example
+
+Insert extra parentheses so that Emacs will indent the code properly.
+For example, the following indentation looks nice if you do it by hand,
+
+@example
+v = rup->ru_utime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_utime.tv_usec/1000
+    + rup->ru_stime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_stime.tv_usec/1000;
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but Emacs would alter it.  Adding a set of parentheses produces
+something that looks equally nice, and which Emacs will preserve:
+
+@example
+v = (rup->ru_utime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_utime.tv_usec/1000
+     + rup->ru_stime.tv_sec*1000 + rup->ru_stime.tv_usec/1000);
+@end example
+
+Format do-while statements like this:
+
+@example
+do
+  @{
+    a = foo (a);
+  @}
+while (a > 0);
+@end example
+
+@cindex formfeed
+@cindex control-L
+Please use formfeed characters (control-L) to divide the program into
+pages at logical places (but not within a function).  It does not matter
+just how long the pages are, since they do not have to fit on a printed
+page.  The formfeeds should appear alone on lines by themselves.
+
+@node Comments
+@section Commenting Your Work
+@cindex commenting
+
+Every program should start with a comment saying briefly what it is for.
+Example: @samp{fmt - filter for simple filling of text}.  This comment
+should be at the top of the source file containing the @samp{main}
+function of the program.
+
+Also, please write a brief comment at the start of each source file,
+with the file name and a line or two about the overall purpose of the
+file.
+
+Please write the comments in a GNU program in English, because English
+is the one language that nearly all programmers in all countries can
+read.  If you do not write English well, please write comments in
+English as well as you can, then ask other people to help rewrite them.
+If you can't write comments in English, please find someone to work with
+you and translate your comments into English.
+
+Please put a comment on each function saying what the function does,
+what sorts of arguments it gets, and what the possible values of
+arguments mean and are used for.  It is not necessary to duplicate in
+words the meaning of the C argument declarations, if a C type is being
+used in its customary fashion.  If there is anything nonstandard about
+its use (such as an argument of type @code{char *} which is really the
+address of the second character of a string, not the first), or any
+possible values that would not work the way one would expect (such as,
+that strings containing newlines are not guaranteed to work), be sure
+to say so.
+
+Also explain the significance of the return value, if there is one.
+
+Please put two spaces after the end of a sentence in your comments, so
+that the Emacs sentence commands will work.  Also, please write
+complete sentences and capitalize the first word.  If a lower-case
+identifier comes at the beginning of a sentence, don't capitalize it!
+Changing the spelling makes it a different identifier.  If you don't
+like starting a sentence with a lower case letter, write the sentence
+differently (e.g., ``The identifier lower-case is @dots{}'').
+
+The comment on a function is much clearer if you use the argument
+names to speak about the argument values.  The variable name itself
+should be lower case, but write it in upper case when you are speaking
+about the value rather than the variable itself.  Thus, ``the inode
+number NODE_NUM'' rather than ``an inode''.
+
+There is usually no purpose in restating the name of the function in
+the comment before it, because readers can see that for themselves.
+There might be an exception when the comment is so long that the function
+itself would be off the bottom of the screen.
+
+There should be a comment on each static variable as well, like this:
+
+@example
+/* Nonzero means truncate lines in the display;
+   zero means continue them.  */
+int truncate_lines;
+@end example
+
+@cindex conditionals, comments for
+@cindex @code{#endif}, commenting
+Every @samp{#endif} should have a comment, except in the case of short
+conditionals (just a few lines) that are not nested.  The comment should
+state the condition of the conditional that is ending, @emph{including
+its sense}.  @samp{#else} should have a comment describing the condition
+@emph{and sense} of the code that follows.  For example:
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifdef foo
+  @dots{}
+#else /* not foo */
+  @dots{}
+#endif /* not foo */
+@end group
+@group
+#ifdef foo
+  @dots{}
+#endif /* foo */
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+but, by contrast, write the comments this way for a @samp{#ifndef}:
+
+@example
+@group
+#ifndef foo
+  @dots{}
+#else /* foo */
+  @dots{}
+#endif /* foo */
+@end group
+@group
+#ifndef foo
+  @dots{}
+#endif /* not foo */
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@node Syntactic Conventions
+@section Clean Use of C Constructs
+@cindex syntactic conventions
+
+@cindex implicit @code{int}
+@cindex function argument, declaring
+Please explicitly declare the types of all objects.  For example, you
+should explicitly declare all arguments to functions, and you should
+declare functions to return @code{int} rather than omitting the
+@code{int}.
+
+@cindex compiler warnings
+@cindex @samp{-Wall} compiler option
+Some programmers like to use the GCC @samp{-Wall} option, and change the
+code whenever it issues a warning.  If you want to do this, then do.
+Other programmers prefer not to use @samp{-Wall}, because it gives
+warnings for valid and legitimate code which they do not want to change.
+If you want to do this, then do.  The compiler should be your servant,
+not your master.
+
+@pindex clang
+@pindex lint
+Don't make the program ugly just to placate static analysis tools such
+as @command{lint}, @command{clang}, and GCC with extra warnings
+options such as @option{-Wconversion} and @option{-Wundef}.  These
+tools can help find bugs and unclear code, but they can also generate
+so many false alarms that it hurts readability to silence them with
+unnecessary casts, wrappers, and other complications.  For example,
+please don't insert casts to @code{void} or calls to do-nothing
+functions merely to pacify a lint checker.
+
+Declarations of external functions and functions to appear later in the
+source file should all go in one place near the beginning of the file
+(somewhere before the first function definition in the file), or else
+should go in a header file.  Don't put @code{extern} declarations inside
+functions.
+
+@cindex temporary variables
+It used to be common practice to use the same local variables (with
+names like @code{tem}) over and over for different values within one
+function.  Instead of doing this, it is better to declare a separate local
+variable for each distinct purpose, and give it a name which is
+meaningful.  This not only makes programs easier to understand, it also
+facilitates optimization by good compilers.  You can also move the
+declaration of each local variable into the smallest scope that includes
+all its uses.  This makes the program even cleaner.
+
+Don't use local variables or parameters that shadow global identifiers.
+GCC's @samp{-Wshadow} option can detect this problem.
+
+@cindex multiple variables in a line
+Don't declare multiple variables in one declaration that spans lines.
+Start a new declaration on each line, instead.  For example, instead
+of this:
+
+@example
+@group
+int    foo,
+       bar;
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+write either this:
+
+@example
+int foo, bar;
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+or this:
+
+@example
+int foo;
+int bar;
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(If they are global variables, each should have a comment preceding it
+anyway.)
+
+When you have an @code{if}-@code{else} statement nested in another
+@code{if} statement, always put braces around the @code{if}-@code{else}.
+Thus, never write like this:
+
+@example
+if (foo)
+  if (bar)
+    win ();
+  else
+    lose ();
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+always like this:
+
+@example
+if (foo)
+  @{
+    if (bar)
+      win ();
+    else
+      lose ();
+  @}
+@end example
+
+If you have an @code{if} statement nested inside of an @code{else}
+statement, either write @code{else if} on one line, like this,
+
+@example
+if (foo)
+  @dots{}
+else if (bar)
+  @dots{}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+with its @code{then}-part indented like the preceding @code{then}-part,
+or write the nested @code{if} within braces like this:
+
+@example
+if (foo)
+  @dots{}
+else
+  @{
+    if (bar)
+      @dots{}
+  @}
+@end example
+
+Don't declare both a structure tag and variables or typedefs in the
+same declaration.  Instead, declare the structure tag separately
+and then use it to declare the variables or typedefs.
+
+Try to avoid assignments inside @code{if}-conditions (assignments
+inside @code{while}-conditions are ok).  For example, don't write
+this:
+
+@example
+if ((foo = (char *) malloc (sizeof *foo)) == 0)
+  fatal ("virtual memory exhausted");
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+instead, write this:
+
+@example
+foo = (char *) malloc (sizeof *foo);
+if (foo == 0)
+  fatal ("virtual memory exhausted");
+@end example
+
+This example uses zero without a cast as a null pointer constant.
+This is perfectly fine, except that a cast is needed when calling a
+varargs function or when using @code{sizeof}.
+
+@node Names
+@section Naming Variables, Functions, and Files
+
+@cindex names of variables, functions, and files
+The names of global variables and functions in a program serve as
+comments of a sort.  So don't choose terse names---instead, look for
+names that give useful information about the meaning of the variable or
+function.  In a GNU program, names should be English, like other
+comments.
+
+Local variable names can be shorter, because they are used only within
+one context, where (presumably) comments explain their purpose.
+
+Try to limit your use of abbreviations in symbol names.  It is ok to
+make a few abbreviations, explain what they mean, and then use them
+frequently, but don't use lots of obscure abbreviations.
+
+Please use underscores to separate words in a name, so that the Emacs
+word commands can be useful within them.  Stick to lower case; reserve
+upper case for macros and @code{enum} constants, and for name-prefixes
+that follow a uniform convention.
+
+For example, you should use names like @code{ignore_space_change_flag};
+don't use names like @code{iCantReadThis}.
+
+Variables that indicate whether command-line options have been
+specified should be named after the meaning of the option, not after
+the option-letter.  A comment should state both the exact meaning of
+the option and its letter.  For example,
+
+@example
+@group
+/* Ignore changes in horizontal whitespace (-b).  */
+int ignore_space_change_flag;
+@end group
+@end example
+
+When you want to define names with constant integer values, use
+@code{enum} rather than @samp{#define}.  GDB knows about enumeration
+constants.
+
+@cindex file-name limitations
+@pindex doschk
+You might want to make sure that none of the file names would conflict
+if the files were loaded onto an MS-DOS file system which shortens the
+names.  You can use the program @code{doschk} to test for this.
+
+Some GNU programs were designed to limit themselves to file names of 14
+characters or less, to avoid file name conflicts if they are read into
+older System V systems.  Please preserve this feature in the existing
+GNU programs that have it, but there is no need to do this in new GNU
+programs.  @code{doschk} also reports file names longer than 14
+characters.

+In the Unix world, ``portability'' refers to porting to different Unix
+versions.  For a GNU program, this kind of portability is desirable, but
+not paramount.
+
+The primary purpose of GNU software is to run on top of the GNU kernel,
+compiled with the GNU C compiler, on various types of @sc{cpu}.  So the
+kinds of portability that are absolutely necessary are quite limited.
+But it is important to support Linux-based GNU systems, since they
+are the form of GNU that is popular.
+
+Beyond that, it is good to support the other free operating systems
+(*BSD), and it is nice to support other Unix-like systems if you want
+to.  Supporting a variety of Unix-like systems is desirable, although
+not paramount.  It is usually not too hard, so you may as well do it.
+But you don't have to consider it an obligation, if it does turn out to
+be hard.
+
+@pindex autoconf
+The easiest way to achieve portability to most Unix-like systems is to
+use Autoconf.  It's unlikely that your program needs to know more
+information about the host platform than Autoconf can provide, simply
+because most of the programs that need such knowledge have already been
+written.
+
+Avoid using the format of semi-internal data bases (e.g., directories)
+when there is a higher-level alternative (@code{readdir}).
+
+@cindex non-@sc{posix} systems, and portability
+As for systems that are not like Unix, such as MSDOS, Windows, VMS, MVS,
+and older Macintosh systems, supporting them is often a lot of work.
+When that is the case, it is better to spend your time adding features
+that will be useful on GNU and GNU/Linux, rather than on supporting
+other incompatible systems.
+
+If you do support Windows, please do not abbreviate it as ``win''.  In
+hacker terminology, calling something a ``win'' is a form of praise.
+You're free to praise Microsoft Windows on your own if you want, but
+please don't do this in GNU packages.  Instead of abbreviating
+``Windows'' to ``win'', you can write it in full or abbreviate it to
+``woe'' or ``w''.  In GNU Emacs, for instance, we use @samp{w32} in
+file names of Windows-specific files, but the macro for Windows
+conditionals is called @code{WINDOWSNT}.
+
+It is a good idea to define the ``feature test macro''
+@code{_GNU_SOURCE} when compiling your C files.  When you compile on GNU
+or GNU/Linux, this will enable the declarations of GNU library extension
+functions, and that will usually give you a compiler error message if
+you define the same function names in some other way in your program.
+(You don't have to actually @emph{use} these functions, if you prefer
+to make the program more portable to other systems.)
+
+But whether or not you use these GNU extensions, you should avoid
+using their names for any other meanings.  Doing so would make it hard
+to move your code into other GNU programs.
+
+@node CPU Portability
+@section Portability between @sc{cpu}s
+
+@cindex data types, and portability
+@cindex portability, and data types
+Even GNU systems will differ because of differences among @sc{cpu}
+types---for example, difference in byte ordering and alignment
+requirements.  It is absolutely essential to handle these differences.
+However, don't make any effort to cater to the possibility that an
+@code{int} will be less than 32 bits.  We don't support 16-bit machines
+in GNU.
+
+Similarly, don't make any effort to cater to the possibility that
+@code{long} will be smaller than predefined types like @code{size_t}.
+For example, the following code is ok:
+
+@example
+printf ("size = %lu\n", (unsigned long) sizeof array);
+printf ("diff = %ld\n", (long) (pointer2 - pointer1));
+@end example
+
+1989 Standard C requires this to work, and we know of only one
+counterexample: 64-bit programs on Microsoft Windows.  We will leave
+it to those who want to port GNU programs to that environment to
+figure out how to do it.
+
+Predefined file-size types like @code{off_t} are an exception: they are
+longer than @code{long} on many platforms, so code like the above won't
+work with them.  One way to print an @code{off_t} value portably is to
+print its digits yourself, one by one.
+
+Don't assume that the address of an @code{int} object is also the
+address of its least-significant byte.  This is false on big-endian
+machines.  Thus, don't make the following mistake:
+
+@example
+int c;
+@dots{}
+while ((c = getchar ()) != EOF)
+  write (file_descriptor, &c, 1);
+@end example
+
+@noindent Instead, use @code{unsigned char} as follows.  (The @code{unsigned}
+is for portability to unusual systems where @code{char} is signed and
+where there is integer overflow checking.)
+
+@example
+int c;
+while ((c = getchar ()) != EOF)
+  @{
+    unsigned char u = c;
+    write (file_descriptor, &u, 1);
+  @}
+@end example
+
+@cindex casting pointers to integers
+Avoid casting pointers to integers if you can.  Such casts greatly
+reduce portability, and in most programs they are easy to avoid.  In the
+cases where casting pointers to integers is essential---such as, a Lisp
+interpreter which stores type information as well as an address in one
+word---you'll have to make explicit provisions to handle different word
+sizes.  You will also need to make provision for systems in which the
+normal range of addresses you can get from @code{malloc} starts far away
+from zero.

+
+@cindex C library functions, and portability
+@cindex POSIX functions, and portability
+@cindex library functions, and portability
+@cindex portability, and library functions
+
+Historically, C implementations differed substantially, and many
+systems lacked a full implementation of ANSI/ISO C89.  Nowadays,
+however, very few systems lack a C89 compiler and GNU C supports
+almost all of C99.  Similarly, most systems implement POSIX.1-1993
+libraries and tools, and many have POSIX.1-2001.
+
+Hence, there is little reason to support old C or non-POSIX systems,
+and you may want to take advantage of C99 and POSIX-1.2001 to write
+clearer, more portable, or faster code.  You should use standard
+interfaces where possible; but if GNU extensions make your program
+more maintainable, powerful, or otherwise better, don't hesitate to
+use them.  In any case, don't make your own declaration of system
+functions; that's a recipe for conflict.
+
+Despite the standards, nearly every library function has some sort of
+portability issue on some system or another.  Here are some examples:
+
+@table @code
+@item open
+Names with trailing @code{/}'s are mishandled on many platforms.
+
+@item printf
+@code{long double} may be unimplemented; floating values Infinity and
+NaN are often mishandled; output for large precisions may be
+incorrect.
+
+@item readlink
+May return @code{int} instead of @code{ssize_t}.
+
+@item scanf
+On Windows, @code{errno} is not set on failure.
+@end table
+
+@cindex Gnulib
+@uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/, Gnulib} is a big help in
+this regard.  Gnulib provides implementations of standard interfaces
+on many of the systems that lack them, including portable
+implementations of enhanced GNU interfaces, thereby making their use
+portable, and of POSIX-1.2008 interfaces, some of which are missing
+even on up-to-date GNU systems.
+
+@findex xmalloc, in Gnulib
+@findex error messages, in Gnulib
+@findex data structures, in Gnulib
+Gnulib also provides many useful non-standard interfaces; for example,
+C implementations of standard data structures (hash tables, binary
+trees), error-checking type-safe wrappers for memory allocation
+functions (@code{xmalloc}, @code{xrealloc}), and output of error
+messages.
+
+Gnulib integrates with GNU Autoconf and Automake to remove much of the
+burden of writing portable code from the programmer: Gnulib makes your
+configure script automatically determine what features are missing and
+use the Gnulib code to supply the missing pieces.
+
+The Gnulib and Autoconf manuals have extensive sections on

+@node Internationalization

+@cindex internationalization
+
+@pindex gettext
+GNU has a library called GNU gettext that makes it easy to translate the
+messages in a program into various languages.  You should use this
+library in every program.  Use English for the messages as they appear
+in the program, and let gettext provide the way to translate them into
+other languages.
+
+Using GNU gettext involves putting a call to the @code{gettext} macro
+around each string that might need translation---like this:
+
+@example
+printf (gettext ("Processing file '%s'..."), file);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+This permits GNU gettext to replace the string @code{"Processing file
+'%s'..."} with a translated version.
+
+Once a program uses gettext, please make a point of writing calls to
+@code{gettext} when you add new strings that call for translation.
+
+Using GNU gettext in a package involves specifying a @dfn{text domain
+name} for the package.  The text domain name is used to separate the
+translations for this package from the translations for other packages.
+Normally, the text domain name should be the same as the name of the
+package---for example, @samp{coreutils} for the GNU core utilities.
+
+@cindex message text, and internationalization
+To enable gettext to work well, avoid writing code that makes
+assumptions about the structure of words or sentences.  When you want
+the precise text of a sentence to vary depending on the data, use two or
+more alternative string constants each containing a complete sentences,
+rather than inserting conditionalized words or phrases into a single
+sentence framework.
+
+Here is an example of what not to do:
+
+@smallexample
+printf ("%s is full", capacity > 5000000 ? "disk" : "floppy disk");
+@end smallexample
+
+If you apply gettext to all strings, like this,
+
+@smallexample
+printf (gettext ("%s is full"),
+        capacity > 5000000 ? gettext ("disk") : gettext ("floppy disk"));
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+the translator will hardly know that "disk" and "floppy disk" are meant to
+be substituted in the other string.  Worse, in some languages (like French)
+the construction will not work: the translation of the word "full" depends
+on the gender of the first part of the sentence; it happens to be not the
+same for "disk" as for "floppy disk".
+
+Complete sentences can be translated without problems:
+
+@example
+printf (capacity > 5000000 ? gettext ("disk is full")
+        : gettext ("floppy disk is full"));
+@end example
+
+A similar problem appears at the level of sentence structure with this
+code:
+
+@example
+printf ("#  Implicit rule search has%s been done.\n",
+        f->tried_implicit ? "" : " not");
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Adding @code{gettext} calls to this code cannot give correct results for
+all languages, because negation in some languages requires adding words
+at more than one place in the sentence.  By contrast, adding
+@code{gettext} calls does the job straightforwardly if the code starts
+out like this:
+
+@example
+printf (f->tried_implicit
+        ? "#  Implicit rule search has been done.\n",
+        : "#  Implicit rule search has not been done.\n");
+@end example
+
+Another example is this one:
+
+@example
+printf ("%d file%s processed", nfiles,
+        nfiles != 1 ? "s" : "");
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+The problem with this example is that it assumes that plurals are made
+by adding `s'.  If you apply gettext to the format string, like this,
+
+@example
+printf (gettext ("%d file%s processed"), nfiles,
+        nfiles != 1 ? "s" : "");
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+the message can use different words, but it will still be forced to use
+`s' for the plural.  Here is a better way, with gettext being applied to
+the two strings independently:
+
+@example
+printf ((nfiles != 1 ? gettext ("%d files processed")
+         : gettext ("%d file processed")),
+        nfiles);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+But this still doesn't work for languages like Polish, which has three
+plural forms: one for nfiles == 1, one for nfiles == 2, 3, 4, 22, 23, 24, ...
+and one for the rest.  The GNU @code{ngettext} function solves this problem:
+
+@example
+printf (ngettext ("%d files processed", "%d file processed", nfiles),
+        nfiles);
+@end example

+@node Character Set
+@section Character Set
+@cindex character set
+@cindex encodings
+@cindex ASCII characters
+@cindex non-ASCII characters
+
+Sticking to the ASCII character set (plain text, 7-bit characters) is
+preferred in GNU source code comments, text documents, and other
+contexts, unless there is good reason to do something else because of
+the application domain.  For example, if source code deals with the
+French Revolutionary calendar, it is OK if its literal strings contain
+accented characters in month names like ``Flor@'eal''.  Also, it is OK
+(but not required) to use non-ASCII characters to represent proper
+names of contributors in change logs (@pxref{Change Logs}).
+
+If you need to use non-ASCII characters, you should normally stick
+with one encoding, certainly within a single file.  UTF-8 is likely to
+be the best choice.

+@cindex single quote
+@cindex double quote
+@cindex grave accent
+@set txicodequoteundirected
+@set txicodequotebacktick
+
+In the C locale, the output of GNU programs should stick to plain
+ASCII for quotation characters in messages to users: preferably 0x22
+(@samp{"}) or 0x27 (@samp{'}) for both opening and closing quotes.
+Although GNU programs traditionally used 0x60 (@samp{`}) for opening
+and 0x27 (@samp{'}) for closing quotes, nowadays quotes @samp{`like
+this'} are typically rendered asymmetrically, so quoting @samp{"like
+this"} or @samp{'like this'} typically looks better.
+
+It is ok, but not required, for GNU programs to generate
+locale-specific quotes in non-C locales.  For example:
+
+@example
+printf (gettext ("Processing file '%s'..."), file);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Here, a French translation might cause @code{gettext} to return the
+string @code{"Traitement de fichier
+@guilsinglleft{}@tie{}%s@tie{}@guilsinglright{}..."}, yielding quotes
+more appropriate for a French locale.
+
+Sometimes a program may need to use opening and closing quotes
+directly.  By convention, @code{gettext} translates the string
+@samp{"`"} to the opening quote and the string @samp{"'"} to the
+closing quote, and a program can use these translations.  Generally,
+though, it is better to translate quote characters in the context of
+longer strings.
+
+If the output of your program is ever likely to be parsed by another
+program, it is good to provide an option that makes this parsing
+reliable.  For example, you could escape special characters using
+conventions from the C language or the Bourne shell.  See for example
+the option @option{--quoting-style} of GNU @code{ls}.

+doing the job in another way using @code{read} and @code{write}.
+
+The reason this precaution is needed is that the GNU kernel (the HURD)
+provides a user-extensible file system, in which there can be many

+@node GNU Manuals
+@section GNU Manuals
+
+The preferred document format for the GNU system is the Texinfo
+formatting language.  Every GNU package should (ideally) have
+documentation in Texinfo both for reference and for learners.  Texinfo
+makes it possible to produce a good quality formatted book, using
+@TeX{}, and to generate an Info file.  It is also possible to generate
+HTML output from Texinfo source.  See the Texinfo manual, either the
+hardcopy, or the on-line version available through @code{info} or the
+Emacs Info subsystem (@kbd{C-h i}).
+
+Nowadays some other formats such as Docbook and Sgmltexi can be
+converted automatically into Texinfo.  It is ok to produce the Texinfo
+documentation by conversion this way, as long as it gives good results.
+
+Make sure your manual is clear to a reader who knows nothing about the
+topic and reads it straight through.  This means covering basic topics
+at the beginning, and advanced topics only later.  This also means
+defining every specialized term when it is first used.
+
+Programmers tend to carry over the structure of the program as the
+structure for its documentation.  But this structure is not
+necessarily good for explaining how to use the program; it may be
+irrelevant and confusing for a user.
+
+Instead, the right way to structure documentation is according to the
+concepts and questions that a user will have in mind when reading it.
+This principle applies at every level, from the lowest (ordering
+sentences in a paragraph) to the highest (ordering of chapter topics
+within the manual).  Sometimes this structure of ideas matches the
+structure of the implementation of the software being documented---but
+often they are different.  An important part of learning to write good
+documentation is to learn to notice when you have unthinkingly
+structured the documentation like the implementation, stop yourself,
+and look for better alternatives.
+
+For example, each program in the GNU system probably ought to be
+documented in one manual; but this does not mean each program should
+have its own manual.  That would be following the structure of the
+implementation, rather than the structure that helps the user
+understand.
+
+Instead, each manual should cover a coherent @emph{topic}.  For example,
+instead of a manual for @code{diff} and a manual for @code{diff3}, we
+have one manual for ``comparison of files'' which covers both of those
+programs, as well as @code{cmp}.  By documenting these programs
+together, we can make the whole subject clearer.
+
+The manual which discusses a program should certainly document all of
+the program's command-line options and all of its commands.  It should
+give examples of their use.  But don't organize the manual as a list
+of features.  Instead, organize it logically, by subtopics.  Address
+the questions that a user will ask when thinking about the job that
+the program does.  Don't just tell the reader what each feature can
+do---say what jobs it is good for, and show how to use it for those
+jobs.  Explain what is recommended usage, and what kinds of usage
+users should avoid.
+
+In general, a GNU manual should serve both as tutorial and reference.
+It should be set up for convenient access to each topic through Info,
+and for reading straight through (appendixes aside).  A GNU manual
+should give a good introduction to a beginner reading through from the
+start, and should also provide all the details that hackers want.
+The Bison manual is a good example of this---please take a look at it
+to see what we mean.
+
+That is not as hard as it first sounds.  Arrange each chapter as a
+logical breakdown of its topic, but order the sections, and write their
+text, so that reading the chapter straight through makes sense.  Do
+likewise when structuring the book into chapters, and when structuring a
+section into paragraphs.  The watchword is, @emph{at each point, address
+the most fundamental and important issue raised by the preceding text.}
+
+If necessary, add extra chapters at the beginning of the manual which
+are purely tutorial and cover the basics of the subject.  These provide
+the framework for a beginner to understand the rest of the manual.  The
+Bison manual provides a good example of how to do this.
+
+To serve as a reference, a manual should have an Index that list all the
+functions, variables, options, and important concepts that are part of
+the program.  One combined Index should do for a short manual, but
+sometimes for a complex package it is better to use multiple indices.
+The Texinfo manual includes advice on preparing good index entries, see
+@ref{Index Entries, , Making Index Entries, texinfo, GNU Texinfo}, and
+see @ref{Indexing Commands, , Defining the Entries of an
+Index, texinfo, GNU Texinfo}.
+
+Don't use Unix man pages as a model for how to write GNU documentation;
+most of them are terse, badly structured, and give inadequate
+explanation of the underlying concepts.  (There are, of course, some
+exceptions.)  Also, Unix man pages use a particular format which is
+different from what we use in GNU manuals.
+
+Please include an email address in the manual for where to report
+bugs @emph{in the text of the manual}.
+
+Please do not use the term ``pathname'' that is used in Unix
+documentation; use ``file name'' (two words) instead.  We use the term
+``path'' only for search paths, which are lists of directory names.
+
+Please do not use the term ``illegal'' to refer to erroneous input to
+a computer program.  Please use ``invalid'' for this, and reserve the
+term ``illegal'' for activities prohibited by law.
+
+Please do not write @samp{()} after a function name just to indicate
+it is a function.  @code{foo ()} is not a function, it is a function
+call with no arguments.
+
+@node Doc Strings and Manuals
+@section Doc Strings and Manuals
+
+Some programming systems, such as Emacs, provide a documentation string
+for each function, command or variable.  You may be tempted to write a
+reference manual by compiling the documentation strings and writing a
+little additional text to go around them---but you must not do it.  That
+approach is a fundamental mistake.  The text of well-written
+documentation strings will be entirely wrong for a manual.
+
+A documentation string needs to stand alone---when it appears on the
+screen, there will be no other text to introduce or explain it.
+Meanwhile, it can be rather informal in style.
+
+The text describing a function or variable in a manual must not stand
+alone; it appears in the context of a section or subsection.  Other text
+at the beginning of the section should explain some of the concepts, and
+should often make some general points that apply to several functions or
+variables.  The previous descriptions of functions and variables in the
+section will also have given information about the topic.  A description
+written to stand alone would repeat some of that information; this
+redundancy looks bad.  Meanwhile, the informality that is acceptable in
+a documentation string is totally unacceptable in a manual.
+
+The only good way to use documentation strings in writing a good manual
+is to use them as a source of information for writing good text.
+
+@node Manual Structure Details
+@section Manual Structure Details
+@cindex manual structure
+
+The title page of the manual should state the version of the programs or
+packages documented in the manual.  The Top node of the manual should
+also contain this information.  If the manual is changing more
+frequently than or independent of the program, also state a version
+number for the manual in both of these places.
+
+Each program documented in the manual should have a node named
+@samp{@var{program} Invocation} or @samp{Invoking @var{program}}.  This
+node (together with its subnodes, if any) should describe the program's
+command line arguments and how to run it (the sort of information people
+would look for in a man page).  Start with an @samp{@@example}
+containing a template for all the options and arguments that the program
+uses.
+
+Alternatively, put a menu item in some menu whose item name fits one of
+the above patterns.  This identifies the node which that item points to
+as the node for this purpose, regardless of the node's actual name.
+
+The @samp{--usage} feature of the Info reader looks for such a node
+or menu item in order to find the relevant text, so it is essential

+If one manual describes several programs, it should have such a node for

+them in the file after the newer items.  This way, a user upgrading from
+any previous version can see what is new.
+
+If the @file{NEWS} file gets very long, move some of the older items
+into a file named @file{ONEWS} and put a note at the end referring the
+user to that file.

+@node Change Logs
+@section Change Logs
+@cindex change logs
+
+Keep a change log to describe all the changes made to program source
+files.  The purpose of this is so that people investigating bugs in the
+future will know about the changes that might have introduced the bug.
+Often a new bug can be found by looking at what was recently changed.
+More importantly, change logs can help you eliminate conceptual
+inconsistencies between different parts of a program, by giving you a
+history of how the conflicting concepts arose and who they came from.

+@node Change Log Concepts
+@subsection Change Log Concepts
+
+You can think of the change log as a conceptual ``undo list'' which
+explains how earlier versions were different from the current version.
+People can see the current version; they don't need the change log
+to tell them what is in it.  What they want from a change log is a
+clear explanation of how the earlier version differed.
+
+The change log file is normally called @file{ChangeLog} and covers an
+entire directory.  Each directory can have its own change log, or a
+directory can use the change log of its parent directory---it's up to
+you.
+
+Another alternative is to record change log information with a version
+control system such as RCS or CVS.  This can be converted automatically
+to a @file{ChangeLog} file using @code{rcs2log}; in Emacs, the command
+@kbd{C-x v a} (@code{vc-update-change-log}) does the job.
+
+There's no need to describe the full purpose of the changes or how
+they work together.  However, sometimes it is useful to write one line
+to describe the overall purpose of a change or a batch of changes.  If
+you think that a change calls for explanation, you're probably right.
+Please do explain it---but please put the full explanation in comments
+in the code, where people will see it whenever they see the code.  For
+example, ``New function'' is enough for the change log when you add a
+function, because there should be a comment before the function
+definition to explain what it does.
+
+In the past, we recommended not mentioning changes in non-software
+files (manuals, help files, etc.) in change logs.  However, we've been
+advised that it is a good idea to include them, for the sake of
+copyright records.
+
+The easiest way to add an entry to @file{ChangeLog} is with the Emacs
+command @kbd{M-x add-change-log-entry}.  An entry should have an
+asterisk, the name of the changed file, and then in parentheses the name
+of the changed functions, variables or whatever, followed by a colon.
+Then describe the changes you made to that function or variable.
+
+@node Style of Change Logs
+@subsection Style of Change Logs
+@cindex change logs, style
+
+Here are some simple examples of change log entries, starting with the
+header line that says who made the change and when it was installed,
+followed by descriptions of specific changes.  (These examples are
+drawn from Emacs and GCC.)
+
+@example
+1998-08-17  Richard Stallman  <rms@@gnu.org>
+
+* register.el (insert-register): Return nil.
+(jump-to-register): Likewise.
+
+* sort.el (sort-subr): Return nil.
+
+* tex-mode.el (tex-bibtex-file, tex-file, tex-region):
+Restart the tex shell if process is gone or stopped.
+(tex-shell-running): New function.
+
+* expr.c (store_one_arg): Round size up for move_block_to_reg.
+(expand_call): Round up when emitting USE insns.
+* stmt.c (assign_parms): Round size up for move_block_from_reg.
+@end example
+
+It's important to name the changed function or variable in full.  Don't
+abbreviate function or variable names, and don't combine them.
+Subsequent maintainers will often search for a function name to find all
+the change log entries that pertain to it; if you abbreviate the name,
+they won't find it when they search.
+
+For example, some people are tempted to abbreviate groups of function
+names by writing @samp{* register.el (@{insert,jump-to@}-register)};
+this is not a good idea, since searching for @code{jump-to-register} or
+@code{insert-register} would not find that entry.
+
+Separate unrelated change log entries with blank lines.  When two
+entries represent parts of the same change, so that they work together,
+then don't put blank lines between them.  Then you can omit the file
+name and the asterisk when successive entries are in the same file.
+
+Break long lists of function names by closing continued lines with
+@samp{)}, rather than @samp{,}, and opening the continuation with
+@samp{(} as in this example:
+
+@example
+* keyboard.c (menu_bar_items, tool_bar_items)
+(Fexecute_extended_command): Deal with 'keymap' property.
+@end example
+
+When you install someone else's changes, put the contributor's name in
+the change log entry rather than in the text of the entry.  In other
+words, write this:
+
+@example
+2002-07-14  John Doe  <jdoe@@gnu.org>
+
+        * sewing.c: Make it sew.
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+rather than this:
+
+@example
+2002-07-14  Usual Maintainer  <usual@@gnu.org>
+
+        * sewing.c: Make it sew.  Patch by jdoe@@gnu.org.
+@end example
+
+As for the date, that should be the date you applied the change.
+
+@node Simple Changes
+@subsection Simple Changes
+
+Certain simple kinds of changes don't need much detail in the change
+log.
+
+When you change the calling sequence of a function in a simple fashion,
+and you change all the callers of the function to use the new calling
+sequence, there is no need to make individual entries for all the
+callers that you changed.  Just write in the entry for the function
+being called, ``All callers changed''---like this:
+
+@example
+* keyboard.c (Fcommand_execute): New arg SPECIAL.
+All callers changed.
+@end example
+
+When you change just comments or doc strings, it is enough to write an
+entry for the file, without mentioning the functions.  Just ``Doc
+fixes'' is enough for the change log.
+
+There's no technical need to make change log entries for documentation
+files.  This is because documentation is not susceptible to bugs that
+are hard to fix.  Documentation does not consist of parts that must
+interact in a precisely engineered fashion.  To correct an error, you
+need not know the history of the erroneous passage; it is enough to
+compare what the documentation says with the way the program actually
+works.
+
+However, you should keep change logs for documentation files when the
+project gets copyright assignments from its contributors, so as to
+make the records of authorship more accurate.
+
+@node Conditional Changes
+@subsection Conditional Changes
+@cindex conditional changes, and change logs
+@cindex change logs, conditional changes
+
+Source files can often contain code that is conditional to build-time
+or static conditions.  For example, C programs can contain
+compile-time @code{#if} conditionals; programs implemented in
+interpreted languages can contain module imports of function
+definitions that are only performed for certain versions of the
+interpreter; and Automake @file{Makefile.am} files can contain
+variable definitions or target declarations that are only to be
+considered if a configure-time Automake conditional is true.
+
+Many changes are conditional as well: sometimes you add a new variable,
+or function, or even a new program or library, which is entirely
+dependent on a build-time condition.  It is useful to indicate
+in the change log the conditions for which a change applies.
+
+Our convention for indicating conditional changes is to use
+@emph{square brackets around the name of the condition}.
+
+Conditional changes can happen in numerous scenarios and with many
+variations, so here are some examples to help clarify.  This first
+example describes changes in C, Perl, and Python files which are
+conditional but do not have an associated function or entity name:
+
+@example
+* xterm.c [SOLARIS2]: Include <string.h>.
+* FilePath.pm [$^O eq 'VMS']: Import the VMS::Feature module.
+* framework.py [sys.version_info < (2, 6)]: Make "with" statement
+  available by importing it from __future__,
+  to support also python 2.5.
+@end example
+
+Our other examples will for simplicity be limited to C, as the minor
+changes necessary to adapt them to other languages should be
+self-evident.
+
+Next, here is an entry describing a new definition which is entirely
+conditional: the C macro @code{FRAME_WINDOW_P} is defined (and used)
+only when the macro @code{HAVE_X_WINDOWS} is defined:
+
+@example
+* frame.h [HAVE_X_WINDOWS] (FRAME_WINDOW_P): Macro defined.
+@end example
+
+Next, an entry for a change within the function @code{init_display},
+whose definition as a whole is unconditional, but the changes
+themselves are contained in a @samp{#ifdef HAVE_LIBNCURSES}
+conditional:
+
+@example
+* dispnew.c (init_display) [HAVE_LIBNCURSES]: If X, call tgetent.
+@end example
+
+Finally, here is an entry for a change that takes effect only when
+a certain macro is @emph{not} defined:
+
+@example
+(gethostname) [!HAVE_SOCKETS]: Replace with winsock version.
+@end example
+
+@node Indicating the Part Changed
+@subsection Indicating the Part Changed
+
+Indicate the part of a function which changed by using angle brackets
+enclosing an indication of what the changed part does.  Here is an entry
+for a change in the part of the function @code{sh-while-getopts} that
+deals with @code{sh} commands:
+
+@example
+* progmodes/sh-script.el (sh-while-getopts) <sh>: Handle case that
+user-specified option string is empty.

+
+@node Man Pages
+@section Man Pages
+@cindex man pages
+
+In the GNU project, man pages are secondary.  It is not necessary or
+expected for every GNU program to have a man page, but some of them do.
+It's your choice whether to include a man page in your program.
+
+When you make this decision, consider that supporting a man page
+requires continual effort each time the program is changed.  The time
+you spend on the man page is time taken away from more useful work.
+
+For a simple program which changes little, updating the man page may be
+a small job.  Then there is little reason not to include a man page, if
+you have one.
+
+For a large program that changes a great deal, updating a man page may
+be a substantial burden.  If a user offers to donate a man page, you may
+find this gift costly to accept.  It may be better to refuse the man
+page unless the same person agrees to take full responsibility for
+maintaining it---so that you can wash your hands of it entirely.  If
+this volunteer later ceases to do the job, then don't feel obliged to
+pick it up yourself; it may be better to withdraw the man page from the
+distribution until someone else agrees to update it.
+
+When a program changes only a little, you may feel that the
+discrepancies are small enough that the man page remains useful without
+updating.  If so, put a prominent note near the beginning of the man
+page explaining that you don't maintain it and that the Texinfo manual
+is more authoritative.  The note should say how to access the Texinfo
+documentation.
+
+Be sure that man pages include a copyright statement and free license.
+The simple all-permissive license is appropriate for simple man pages
+(@pxref{License Notices for Other Files,,,maintain,Information for GNU
+Maintainers}).
+
+For long man pages, with enough explanation and documentation that
+they can be considered true manuals, use the GFDL (@pxref{License for
+Manuals}).
+
+Finally, the GNU help2man program
+(@uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/}) is one way to automate
+generation of a man page, in this case from @option{--help} output.
+This is sufficient in many cases.
+
+@node Reading other Manuals
+@section Reading other Manuals
+
+There may be non-free books or documentation files that describe the
+program you are documenting.
+
+It is ok to use these documents for reference, just as the author of a
+new algebra textbook can read other books on algebra.  A large portion
+of any non-fiction book consists of facts, in this case facts about how
+a certain program works, and these facts are necessarily the same for
+everyone who writes about the subject.  But be careful not to copy your
+outline structure, wording, tables or examples from preexisting non-free
+documentation.  Copying from free documentation may be ok; please check
+with the FSF about the individual case.

+@node Managing Releases
+@chapter The Release Process
+@cindex releasing
+
+Making a release is more than just bundling up your source files in a
+tar file and putting it up for FTP.  You should set up your software so
+that it can be configured to run on a variety of systems.  Your Makefile
+should conform to the GNU standards described below, and your directory
+layout should also conform to the standards discussed below.  Doing so
+makes it easy to include your package into the larger framework of
+all GNU software.

+@end menu
+
+@node Configuration
+@section How Configuration Should Work
+@cindex program configuration
+
+@pindex configure
+Each GNU distribution should come with a shell script named
+@code{configure}.  This script is given arguments which describe the
+kind of machine and system you want to compile the program for.
+The @code{configure} script must record the configuration options so
+that they affect compilation.
+
+The description here is the specification of the interface for the
+@code{configure} script in GNU packages.  Many packages implement it
+using GNU Autoconf (@pxref{Top,, Introduction, autoconf, Autoconf})
+and/or GNU Automake (@pxref{Top,, Introduction, automake, Automake}),
+but you do not have to use these tools.  You can implement it any way
+you like; for instance, by making @code{configure} be a wrapper around
+a completely different configuration system.
+
+Another way for the @code{configure} script to operate is to make a
+link from a standard name such as @file{config.h} to the proper
+configuration file for the chosen system.  If you use this technique,
+the distribution should @emph{not} contain a file named
+@file{config.h}.  This is so that people won't be able to build the
+program without configuring it first.
+
+Another thing that @code{configure} can do is to edit the Makefile.  If
+you do this, the distribution should @emph{not} contain a file named
+@file{Makefile}.  Instead, it should include a file @file{Makefile.in} which
+contains the input used for editing.  Once again, this is so that people
+won't be able to build the program without configuring it first.
+
+If @code{configure} does write the @file{Makefile}, then @file{Makefile}
+should have a target named @file{Makefile} which causes @code{configure}
+to be rerun, setting up the same configuration that was set up last
+time.  The files that @code{configure} reads should be listed as
+dependencies of @file{Makefile}.
+
+All the files which are output from the @code{configure} script should
+have comments at the beginning explaining that they were generated
+automatically using @code{configure}.  This is so that users won't think
+of trying to edit them by hand.
+
+The @code{configure} script should write a file named @file{config.status}
+which describes which configuration options were specified when the
+program was last configured.  This file should be a shell script which,
+if run, will recreate the same configuration.
+
+The @code{configure} script should accept an option of the form
+@samp{--srcdir=@var{dirname}} to specify the directory where sources are found
+(if it is not the current directory).  This makes it possible to build
+the program in a separate directory, so that the actual source directory
+is not modified.
+
+If the user does not specify @samp{--srcdir}, then @code{configure} should
+check both @file{.} and @file{..} to see if it can find the sources.  If
+it finds the sources in one of these places, it should use them from
+there.  Otherwise, it should report that it cannot find the sources, and
+should exit with nonzero status.
+
+Usually the easy way to support @samp{--srcdir} is by editing a
+definition of @code{VPATH} into the Makefile.  Some rules may need to
+refer explicitly to the specified source directory.  To make this
+possible, @code{configure} can add to the Makefile a variable named
+@code{srcdir} whose value is precisely the specified directory.
+
+In addition, the @samp{configure} script should take options
+corresponding to most of the standard directory variables
+(@pxref{Directory Variables}).  Here is the list:
+
+@example
+--prefix --exec-prefix --bindir --sbindir --libexecdir --sysconfdir
+--sharedstatedir --localstatedir --libdir --includedir --oldincludedir
+--datarootdir --datadir --infodir --localedir --mandir --docdir
+--htmldir --dvidir --pdfdir --psdir
+@end example
+
+The @code{configure} script should also take an argument which specifies the
+type of system to build the program for.  This argument should look like
+this:
+
+@example
+@var{cpu}-@var{company}-@var{system}
+@end example
+
+For example, an Athlon-based GNU/Linux system might be
+@samp{i686-pc-linux-gnu}.
+
+The @code{configure} script needs to be able to decode all plausible
+alternatives for how to describe a machine.  Thus,
+@samp{athlon-pc-gnu/linux} would be a valid alias.  There is a shell
+script called
+@uref{http://git.savannah.gnu.org/@/gitweb/@/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD,
+@file{config.sub}} that you can use as a subroutine to validate system
+types and canonicalize aliases.
+
+The @code{configure} script should also take the option
+@option{--build=@var{buildtype}}, which should be equivalent to a
+plain @var{buildtype} argument.  For example, @samp{configure
+--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu} is equivalent to @samp{configure
+i686-pc-linux-gnu}.  When the build type is not specified by an option
+or argument, the @code{configure} script should normally guess it using
+the shell script
+@uref{http://git.savannah.gnu.org/@/gitweb/@/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD,
+@file{config.guess}}.
+
+@cindex optional features, configure-time
+Other options are permitted to specify in more detail the software
+or hardware present on the machine, to include or exclude optional parts
+of the package, or to adjust the name of some tools or arguments to them:
+
+@table @samp
+@item --enable-@var{feature}@r{[}=@var{parameter}@r{]}
+Configure the package to build and install an optional user-level
+facility called @var{feature}.  This allows users to choose which
+optional features to include.  Giving an optional @var{parameter} of
+@samp{no} should omit @var{feature}, if it is built by default.
+
+No @samp{--enable} option should @strong{ever} cause one feature to
+replace another.  No @samp{--enable} option should ever substitute one
+useful behavior for another useful behavior.  The only proper use for
+@samp{--enable} is for questions of whether to build part of the program
+or exclude it.
+
+@item --with-@var{package}
+@c @r{[}=@var{parameter}@r{]}
+The package @var{package} will be installed, so configure this package
+to work with @var{package}.
+
+@c  Giving an optional @var{parameter} of
+@c @samp{no} should omit @var{package}, if it is used by default.
+
+Possible values of @var{package} include
+@samp{gnu-as} (or @samp{gas}), @samp{gnu-ld}, @samp{gnu-libc},
+@samp{gdb},
+@samp{x},
+and
+@samp{x-toolkit}.
+
+Do not use a @samp{--with} option to specify the file name to use to
+find certain files.  That is outside the scope of what @samp{--with}
+options are for.
+
+@item @var{variable}=@var{value}
+Set the value of the variable @var{variable} to @var{value}.  This is
+used to override the default values of commands or arguments in the
+build process.  For example, the user could issue @samp{configure
+CFLAGS=-g CXXFLAGS=-g} to build with debugging information and without
+the default optimization.
+
+Specifying variables as arguments to @code{configure}, like this:
+@example
+./configure CC=gcc
+@end example
+is preferable to setting them in environment variables:
+@example
+CC=gcc ./configure
+@end example
+as it helps to recreate the same configuration later with
+@file{config.status}.  However, both methods should be supported.
+@end table
+
+All @code{configure} scripts should accept all of the ``detail''
+options and the variable settings, whether or not they make any
+difference to the particular package at hand.  In particular, they
+should accept any option that starts with @samp{--with-} or
+@samp{--enable-}.  This is so users will be able to configure an
+entire GNU source tree at once with a single set of options.
+
+You will note that the categories @samp{--with-} and @samp{--enable-}
+are narrow: they @strong{do not} provide a place for any sort of option
+you might think of.  That is deliberate.  We want to limit the possible
+configuration options in GNU software.  We do not want GNU programs to
+have idiosyncratic configuration options.
+
+Packages that perform part of the compilation process may support
+cross-compilation.  In such a case, the host and target machines for the
+program may be different.
+
+The @code{configure} script should normally treat the specified type of
+system as both the host and the target, thus producing a program which
+works for the same type of machine that it runs on.
+
+To compile a program to run on a host type that differs from the build
+type, use the configure option @option{--host=@var{hosttype}}, where
+@var{hosttype} uses the same syntax as @var{buildtype}.  The host type
+normally defaults to the build type.
+
+To configure a cross-compiler, cross-assembler, or what have you, you
+should specify a target different from the host, using the configure
+option @samp{--target=@var{targettype}}.  The syntax for
+@var{targettype} is the same as for the host type.  So the command would
+look like this:
+
+@example
+./configure --host=@var{hosttype} --target=@var{targettype}
+@end example
+
+The target type normally defaults to the host type.
+Programs for which cross-operation is not meaningful need not accept the
+@samp{--target} option, because configuring an entire operating system for
+cross-operation is not a meaningful operation.
+
+Some programs have ways of configuring themselves automatically.  If
+your program is set up to do this, your @code{configure} script can simply
+ignore most of its arguments.

+@node Releases
+@section Making Releases
+@cindex packaging
+
+You should identify each release with a pair of version numbers, a
+major version and a minor.  We have no objection to using more than
+two numbers, but it is very unlikely that you really need them.
+
+Package the distribution of @code{Foo version 69.96} up in a gzipped tar
+file with the name @file{foo-69.96.tar.gz}.  It should unpack into a
+subdirectory named @file{foo-69.96}.
+
+Building and installing the program should never modify any of the files
+contained in the distribution.  This means that all the files that form
+part of the program in any way must be classified into @dfn{source
+files} and @dfn{non-source files}.  Source files are written by humans
+and never changed automatically; non-source files are produced from
+source files by programs under the control of the Makefile.
+
+@cindex @file{README} file
+The distribution should contain a file named @file{README} which gives
+the name of the package, and a general description of what it does.  It
+is also good to explain the purpose of each of the first-level
+subdirectories in the package, if there are any.  The @file{README} file
+should either state the version number of the package, or refer to where
+in the package it can be found.
+
+The @file{README} file should refer to the file @file{INSTALL}, which
+should contain an explanation of the installation procedure.
+
+The @file{README} file should also refer to the file which contains the
+copying conditions.  The GNU GPL, if used, should be in a file called
+@file{COPYING}.  If the GNU LGPL is used, it should be in a file called
+@file{COPYING.LESSER}.
+
+Naturally, all the source files must be in the distribution.  It is
+okay to include non-source files in the distribution along with the
+source files they are generated from, provided they are up-to-date
+with the source they are made from, and machine-independent, so that
+normal building of the distribution will never modify them.  We
+commonly include non-source files produced by Autoconf, Automake,
+Bison, @code{lex}, @TeX{}, and @code{makeinfo}; this helps avoid
+unnecessary dependencies between our distributions, so that users can
+install whichever packages they want to install.
+
+Non-source files that might actually be modified by building and
+installing the program should @strong{never} be included in the
+distribution.  So if you do distribute non-source files, always make
+sure they are up to date when you make a new distribution.
+
+Make sure that all the files in the distribution are world-readable, and
+that directories are world-readable and world-searchable (octal mode 755).
+We used to recommend that all directories in the distribution also be
+world-writable (octal mode 777), because ancient versions of @code{tar}
+would otherwise not cope when extracting the archive as an unprivileged
+user.  That can easily lead to security issues when creating the archive,
+however, so now we recommend against that.
+
+Don't include any symbolic links in the distribution itself.  If the tar
+file contains symbolic links, then people cannot even unpack it on
+systems that don't support symbolic links.  Also, don't use multiple
+names for one file in different directories, because certain file
+systems cannot handle this and that prevents unpacking the
+distribution.
+
+Try to make sure that all the file names will be unique on MS-DOS.  A
+name on MS-DOS consists of up to 8 characters, optionally followed by a
+period and up to three characters.  MS-DOS will truncate extra
+characters both before and after the period.  Thus,
+@file{foobarhacker.c} and @file{foobarhacker.o} are not ambiguous; they
+are truncated to @file{foobarha.c} and @file{foobarha.o}, which are
+distinct.
+
+@cindex @file{texinfo.tex}, in a distribution
+Include in your distribution a copy of the @file{texinfo.tex} you used
+to test print any @file{*.texinfo} or @file{*.texi} files.
+
+Likewise, if your program uses small GNU software packages like regex,
+getopt, obstack, or termcap, include them in the distribution file.
+Leaving them out would make the distribution file a little smaller at
+the expense of possible inconvenience to a user who doesn't know what
+other files to get.

+A GNU program should not recommend, promote, or grant legitimacy to
+the use of any non-free program.  Proprietary software is a social and
+ethical problem, and our aim is to put an end to that problem.  We
+can't stop some people from writing proprietary programs, or stop
+other people from using them, but we can and should refuse to
+advertise them to new potential customers, or to give the public the
+idea that their existence is ethical.
+
+The GNU definition of free software is found on the GNU web site at
+@url{http://www.gnu.org/@/philosophy/@/free-sw.html}, and the definition
+of free documentation is found at
+@url{http://www.gnu.org/@/philosophy/@/free-doc.html}.  The terms ``free''
+and ``non-free'', used in this document, refer to those definitions.
+
+A list of important licenses and whether they qualify as free is in
+@url{http://www.gnu.org/@/licenses/@/license-list.html}.  If it is not
+clear whether a license qualifies as free, please ask the GNU Project
+by writing to @email{licensing@@gnu.org}.  We will answer, and if the
+license is an important one, we will add it to the list.
+
+When a non-free program or system is well known, you can mention it in
+passing---that is harmless, since users who might want to use it
+probably already know about it.  For instance, it is fine to explain
+how to build your package on top of some widely used non-free
+operating system, or how to use it together with some widely used
+non-free program.
+
+However, you should give only the necessary information to help those
+who already use the non-free program to use your program with
+it---don't give, or refer to, any further information about the
+proprietary program, and don't imply that the proprietary program
+enhances your program, or that its existence is in any way a good
+thing.  The goal should be that people already using the proprietary
+program will get the advice they need about how to use your free
+program with it, while people who don't already use the proprietary
+program will not see anything likely to lead them to take an interest
+in it.
+
+If a non-free program or system is obscure in your program's domain,
+your program should not mention or support it at all, since doing so
+would tend to popularize the non-free program more than it popularizes
+your program.  (You cannot hope to find many additional users for your
+program among the users of Foobar, if the existence of Foobar is not
+generally known among people who might want to use your program.)
+
+Sometimes a program is free software in itself but depends on a
+non-free platform in order to run.  For instance, many Java programs
+depend on some non-free Java libraries.  To recommend or promote such
+a program is to promote the other programs it needs.  This is why we
+are careful about listing Java programs in the Free Software
+Directory: we don't want to promote the non-free Java libraries.
+
+We hope this particular problem with Java will be gone by and by, as
+we replace the remaining non-free standard Java libraries with free
+software, but the general principle will remain the same: don't
+recommend, promote or legitimize programs that depend on non-free
+software to run.
+
+Some free programs strongly encourage the use of non-free software.  A
+typical example is @command{mplayer}.  It is free software in itself,
+and the free code can handle some kinds of files.  However,
+@command{mplayer} recommends use of non-free codecs for other kinds of
+files, and users that install @command{mplayer} are very likely to
+install those codecs along with it.  To recommend @command{mplayer}
+is, in effect, to promote use of the non-free codecs.
+
+Thus, you should not recommend programs that strongly encourage the
+use of non-free software.  This is why we do not list
+@command{mplayer} in the Free Software Directory.
+
+A GNU package should not refer the user to any non-free documentation
+for free software.  Free documentation that can be included in free
+operating systems is essential for completing the GNU system, or any
+free operating system, so encouraging it is a priority; to recommend
+use of documentation that we are not allowed to include undermines the
+impetus for the community to produce documentation that we can
+include.  So GNU packages should never recommend non-free
+documentation.
+
+By contrast, it is ok to refer to journal articles and textbooks in
+the comments of a program for explanation of how it functions, even
+though they are non-free.  This is because we don't include such
+things in the GNU system even if they are free---they are outside the
+scope of what a software distribution needs to include.
+
+Referring to a web site that describes or recommends a non-free
+program is promoting that program, so please do not make links to (or
+mention by name) web sites that contain such material.  This policy is
+relevant particularly for the web pages for a GNU package.
+
+Following links from nearly any web site can lead eventually to
+non-free software; this is inherent in the nature of the web.  So it
+makes no sense to criticize a site for having such links.  As long as
+the site does not itself recommend a non-free program, there is no
+need to consider the question of the sites that it links to for other
+reasons.
+
+Thus, for example, you should not refer to AT&T's web site if that
+recommends AT&T's non-free software packages; you should not refer to
+a site that links to AT&T's site presenting it as a place to get some
+non-free program, because that link recommends and legitimizes the
+non-free program.  However, that a site contains a link to AT&T's web
+site for some other purpose (such as long-distance telephone service)
+is not an objection against it.

+  # Register a channel to output warnings about unused variables.
+  register_channel 'unused', type => 'warning';
+
+  # Register a channel for system errors.
+  register_channel 'system', type => 'error', exit_code => 4;
+
+  # Output a message on channel 'unused'.
+  msg 'unused', "$file:$line", "unused variable '$var'";

+  # Make the 'unused' channel silent.
+  setup_channel 'unused', silent => 1;
+
+  # Turn on all channels of type 'warning'.
+  setup_channel_type 'warning', silent => 0;
+
+  # Redirect all channels to push messages on a Thread::Queue using
+  # the specified serialization key.
+  setup_channel_queue $queue, $key;

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This perl module provides support functions for handling diagnostic
+channels in programs.  Channels can be registered to convey fatal,
+error, warning, or debug messages.  Each channel has various options
+(e.g. is the channel silent, should duplicate messages be removed,
+etc.) that can also be overridden on a per-message basis.

+of the message that should be considered when filtering out duplicates.
+If C<UP_LOC_TEXT> is used, the location and the explanation message
+are used for filtering.  If C<UP_TEXT> is used, only the explanation
+message is used (so the same message will be filtered out if it appears

+=head2 Options
+
+Channels accept the options described below.  These options can be
+passed as a hash to the C<register_channel>, C<setup_channel>, and C<msg>
+functions.  The possible keys, with their default value are:
+
+=over
+
+=item C<type =E<gt> 'warning'>
+
+The type of the channel.  One of C<'debug'>, C<'warning'>, C<'error'>, or
+C<'fatal'>.  Fatal messages abort the program when they are output.
+Error messages update the exit status.  Debug and warning messages are
+harmless, except that warnings are treated as errors if
+C<$warnings_are_errors> is set.
+
+=item C<exit_code =E<gt> 1>
+
+The value to update C<$exit_code> with when a fatal or error message
+is emitted.  C<$exit_code> is also updated for warnings output
+when C<$warnings_are_errors> is set.
+
+=item C<file =E<gt> \*STDERR>
+
+The file where the error should be output.
+
+=item C<silent =E<gt> 0>
+
+Whether the channel should be silent.  Use this do disable a
+category of warning, for instance.
+
+=item C<ordered =E<gt> 1>
+
+Whether, with multi-threaded execution, the message should be queued
+for ordered output.
+
+=item C<uniq_part =E<gt> UP_LOC_TEXT>
+
+The part of the message subject to duplicate filtering.  See the
+documentation for the C<UP_NONE>, C<UP_TEXT>, and C<UP_LOC_TEXT>
+constants above.
+
+C<uniq_part> can also be set to an arbitrary string that will be used
+instead of the message when considering duplicates.
+
+=item C<uniq_scope =E<gt> US_LOCAL>
+
+The scope of duplicate filtering.  See the documentation for the
+C<US_LOCAL>, and C<US_GLOBAL> constants above.
+
+=item C<header =E<gt> ''>
+
+A string to prepend to each message emitted through this channel.
+With partial messages, only the first part will have C<header>
+prepended.
+
+=item C<footer =E<gt> ''>
+
+A string to append to each message emitted through this channel.
+With partial messages, only the final part will have C<footer>
+appended.
+
+=item C<backtrace =E<gt> 0>
+
+Die with a stack backtrace after displaying the message.
+
+=item C<partial =E<gt> 0>
+
+When set, indicates a partial message that should
+be output along with the next message with C<partial> unset.
+Several partial messages can be stacked this way.
+
+Duplicate filtering will apply to the I<global> message resulting from
+all I<partial> messages, using the options from the last (non-partial)
+message.  Linking associated messages is the main reason to use this
+option.
+
+For instance the following messages
+
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:2', 'redefinition of A ...';
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:1', '... A previously defined here';
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:3', 'redefinition of A ...';
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:1', '... A previously defined here';
+
+will result in
+
+ foo:2: redefinition of A ...
+ foo:1: ... A previously defined here
+ foo:3: redefinition of A ...
+
+where the duplicate "I<... A previously defined here>" has been
+filtered out.
+
+Linking these messages using C<partial> as follows will prevent the
+fourth message to disappear.
+
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:2', 'redefinition of A ...', partial => 1;
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:1', '... A previously defined here';
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:3', 'redefinition of A ...', partial => 1;
+  msg 'channel', 'foo:1', '... A previously defined here';
+
+Note that because the stack of C<partial> messages is printed with the
+first non-C<partial> message, most options of C<partial> messages will
+be ignored.

+
+Emit a message on C<$channel>, overriding some options of the channel with
+those specified in C<%options>.  Obviously C<$channel> must have been
+registered with C<register_channel>.
+
+C<$message> is the text of the message, and C<$location> is a location
+associated to the message.
+
+For instance to complain about some unused variable C<mumble>
+declared at line 10 in F<foo.c>, one could do:
+
+  msg 'unused', 'foo.c:10', "unused variable 'mumble'";
+
+If channel C<unused> is not silent (and if this message is not a duplicate),
+the following would be output:
+
+  foo.c:10: unused variable 'mumble'
+
+C<$location> can also be an instance of C<Autom4te::Location>.  In this
+case, the stack of contexts will be displayed in addition.
+
+If C<$message> contains newline characters, C<$location> is prepended
+to each line.  For instance,
+
+  msg 'error', 'somewhere', "1st line\n2nd line";
+
+becomes
+
+  somewhere: 1st line
+  somewhere: 2nd line
+
+If C<$location> is an empty string, it is replaced by the name of the
+program.  Actually, if you don't use C<%options>, you can even
+elide the empty C<$location>.  Thus

+
+By default, when C<msg> is called, messages are processed immediately.
+
+Sometimes it is necessary to delay the output of messages.
+For instance you might want to make diagnostics before
+channels have been completely configured.
+
+After C<buffer_messages(@types)> has been called, messages sent with
+C<msg> to a channel whose type is listed in C<@types> will be stored in a
+list for later processing.
+
+This backlog of messages is processed when C<flush_messages> is
+called, with the current channel options (not the options in effect,
+at the time of C<msg>).  So for instance, if some channel was silenced
+in the meantime, messages to this channel will not be printed.
+
+C<flush_messages> cancels the effect of C<buffer_messages>.  Following
+calls to C<msg> are processed immediately as usual.

+
+C<Autom4te::XFile> inherits from C<IO::File>.  It provides the method
+C<name> returning the file name.  It provides dying versions of the
+methods C<close>, C<lock> (corresponding to C<flock>), C<new>,
+C<open>, C<seek>, and C<truncate>.  It also overrides the C<getline>
+and C<getlines> methods to translate C<\r\n> to C<\n>.

+#
+m4_define([AU_DEFINE], [])
+
+# AU_DEFUN(NAME, NEW-CODE, [MESSAGE])
+# -----------------------------------
+# Declare that the macro NAME is now obsoleted, and should be replaced
+# by NEW-CODE.  Tell the user she should run autoupdate, and when
+# autoupdate is run, emit MESSAGE as a warning and include it in
+# the updated configure.ac file.
+#
+# Also define NAME as a macro which code is NEW-CODE.
+#
+# This allows sharing the same code for both supporting obsoleted macros,
+# and to update a configure.ac.
+# See the end of `autoupdate.in' for a longer description.
+m4_define([AU_DEFUN],
+[# This is what autoupdate's m4 run will expand.  It fires
+# the warning (with _au_warn_XXX), outputs it into the
+# updated configure.ac (with AC_DIAGNOSE), and then outputs
+# the replacement expansion.

+# order to expand this macro's arguments, not AU_DEFUN's.
+AU_DEFINE([_au_warn_$1],

+# Finally, this is the expansion that is picked up by

+# ----------------------------
+# The OLD-NAME is no longer used, just use NEW-NAME instead.  There is
+# little difference with using AU_DEFUN but the fact there is little
+# interest in running the test suite on both OLD-NAME and NEW-NAME.
+# This macro makes it possible to distinguish such cases.
+#
+# Do not use `defn' since then autoupdate would replace an old macro
+# call with the new macro body instead of the new macro call.
+#
+# Moreover, we have to take care that calls without parameters are
+# expanded to calls without parameters, not with one empty parameter.
+# This is not only an aesthetic improvement of autoupdate, it also
+# matters with poorly written macros which test for $# = 0.
+#
+m4_define([AU_ALIAS],
+[AU_DEFUN([$1], _AU_ALIAS_BODY([$], [$2]))])
+
+# The body for the AU_DEFUN above should look like:

+# Thus the helper macro is:
+m4_define([_AU_ALIAS_BODY], [[m4_if($1#, 0, [$2], [$2($1@)])]])

+## ---------- ##
+
+# Fortran vs. Fortran 77:
+#   This file contains macros for both "Fortran 77" and "Fortran", where
+# the former is the "classic" autoconf Fortran interface and is intended
+# for legacy F77 codes, while the latter is intended to support newer Fortran
+# dialects.  Fortran 77 uses environment variables F77, FFLAGS, and FLIBS,
+# while Fortran uses FC, FCFLAGS, and FCLIBS.  For each user-callable AC_*
+# macro, there is generally both an F77 and an FC version, where both versions
+# share the same _AC_*_FC_* backend.  This backend macro requires that
+# the appropriate language be AC_LANG_PUSH'ed, and uses _AC_LANG_ABBREV and
+# _AC_LANG_PREFIX in order to name cache and environment variables, etc.

+# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+#
+# Processing the elements of a list is tedious in shell programming,
+# as lists tend to be implemented as space delimited strings.
+#
+# This macro searches LIST for ELEMENT, and executes ACTION-IF-FOUND
+# if ELEMENT is a member of LIST, otherwise it executes

+# -------------------------------------------------
+#
+# Specifying options to the compiler (whether it be the C, C++ or
+# Fortran 77 compiler) that are meant for the linker is compiler
+# dependent.  This macro lets you give options to the compiler that
+# are meant for the linker in a portable, compiler-independent way.
+#
+# This macro take two arguments, a list of linker options that the
+# compiler should pass to the linker (LINKER-OPTIONS) and the name of
+# a shell variable (SHELL-VARIABLE).  The list of linker options are
+# appended to the shell variable in a compiler-dependent way.
+#
+# For example, if the selected language is C, then this:
+#
+#   _AC_LINKER_OPTION([-R /usr/local/lib/foo], foo_LDFLAGS)
+#
+# will expand into this if the selected C compiler is gcc:
+#
+#   foo_LDFLAGS="-Xlinker -R -Xlinker /usr/local/lib/foo"
+#
+# otherwise, it will expand into this:
+#
+#   foo_LDFLAGS"-R /usr/local/lib/foo"

+# doesn't currently support.

+#
+# For example, if object files from a C++ and Fortran compiler must

+# linked in as well, but the C++ compiler/linker doesn't know how to

+# libraries.
+#
+# This macro was packaged in its current form by Matthew D. Langston.
+# However, nearly all of this macro came from the "OCTAVE_FLIBS" macro

+# Check whether `mkdir -p' is known to be thread-safe, and fall back to
+# install-sh -d otherwise.
+#
+# Automake 1.8 used `mkdir -m 0755 -p --' to ensure that directories
+# created by `make install' are always world readable, even if the
+# installer happens to have an overly restrictive umask (e.g. 077).
+# This was a mistake.  There are at least two reasons why we must not
+# use `-m 0755':
+#   - it causes special bits like SGID to be ignored,
+#   - it may be too restrictive (some setups expect 775 directories).
+#
+# Do not use -m 0755 and let people choose whatever they expect by
+# setting umask.
+#
+# We cannot accept any implementation of `mkdir' that recognizes `-p'.
+# Some implementations (such as Solaris 8's) are vulnerable to race conditions:
+# if a parallel make tries to run `mkdir -p a/b' and `mkdir -p a/c'
+# concurrently, both version can detect that a/ is missing, but only
+# one can create it and the other will error out.  Consequently we
+# restrict ourselves to known race-free implementations.
+#
+# Automake used to define mkdir_p as `mkdir -p .', in order to
+# allow $(mkdir_p) to be used without argument.  As in
+#   $(mkdir_p) $(somedir)
+# where $(somedir) is conditionally defined.  However we don't do
+# that for MKDIR_P.
+#  1. before we restricted the check to GNU mkdir, `mkdir -p .' was
+#     reported to fail in read-only directories.  The system where this
+#     happened has been forgotten.
+#  2. in practice we call $(MKDIR_P) on directories such as
+#       $(MKDIR_P) "$(DESTDIR)$(somedir)"
+#     and we don't want to create $(DESTDIR) if $(somedir) is empty.
+#     To support the latter case, we have to write
+#       test -z "$(somedir)" || $(MKDIR_P) "$(DESTDIR)$(somedir)"
+#     so $(MKDIR_P) always has an argument.
+#     We will have better chances of detecting a missing test if
+#     $(MKDIR_P) complains about missing arguments.
+#  3. $(MKDIR_P) is named after `mkdir -p' and we don't expect this
+#     to accept no argument.
+#  4. having something like `mkdir .' in the output is unsightly.
+#
+# On NextStep and OpenStep, the `mkdir' command does not
+# recognize any option.  It will interpret all options as

+# This file handles about all the preparation aspects for

+# little mixture though of things actually handled by `configure',
+# such as running the `configure' in the sub directories.  Minor
+# detail.
+#
+# There are two kinds of commands:
+#
+# COMMANDS:
+#
+#   They are output into `config.status' via a quoted here doc.  These
+#   commands are always associated to a tag which the user can use to
+#   tell `config.status' what are the commands she wants to run.
+#
+# INIT-CMDS:
+#
+#   They are output via an *unquoted* here-doc.  As a consequence $var
+#   will be output as the value of VAR.  This is typically used by
+#   `configure' to give `config.status' some variables it needs to run
+#   the COMMANDS.  At the difference of COMMANDS, the INIT-CMDS are
+#   always run.
+#
+#
+# Honorable members of this family are AC_CONFIG_FILES,
+# AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_LINKS and AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS.  Bad boys
+# are AC_LINK_FILES, AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS and AC_OUTPUT when used with
+# arguments.  False members are AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR, AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS
+# and AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR.  Cousins are AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE and

+
+# Up to 2.13 included, Autoconf used to provide the macro
+#
+#    AC_CHECK_TYPE(TYPE, DEFAULT)
+#
+# Since, it provides another version which fits better with the other
+# AC_CHECK_ families:
+#
+#    AC_CHECK_TYPE(TYPE,
+#		   [ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND],
+#		   [INCLUDES = DEFAULT-INCLUDES])
+#
+# In order to provide backward compatibility, the new scheme is
+# implemented as _AC_CHECK_TYPE_NEW, the old scheme as _AC_CHECK_TYPE_OLD,
+# and AC_CHECK_TYPE branches to one or the other, depending upon its
+# arguments.
+
+
+# _AC_CHECK_TYPE_NEW_BODY
+# -----------------------
+# Shell function body for _AC_CHECK_TYPE_NEW.  This macro implements the
+# former task of AC_CHECK_TYPE, with one big difference though: AC_CHECK_TYPE
+# used to grep in the headers, which, BTW, led to many problems until the
+# extended regular expression was correct and did not give false positives.
+# It turned out there are even portability issues with egrep...
+#
+# The most obvious way to check for a TYPE is just to compile a variable
+# definition:
+#
+#	  TYPE my_var;
+#
+# (TYPE being the second parameter to the shell function, hence $[]2 in m4).
+# Unfortunately this does not work for const qualified types in C++, where
+# you need an initializer.  So you think of
+#
+#	  TYPE my_var = (TYPE) 0;
+#
+# Unfortunately, again, this is not valid for some C++ classes.
+#
+# Then you look for another scheme.  For instance you think of declaring
+# a function which uses a parameter of type TYPE:
+#
+#	  int foo (TYPE param);
+#
+# but of course you soon realize this does not make it with K&R
+# compilers.  And by no means do you want to use this:
+#
+#	  int foo (param)
+#	    TYPE param
+#	  { ; }
+#
+# since C++ would complain loudly.
+#
+# Don't even think of using a function return type, since K&R cries
+# there too.  So you start thinking of declaring a *pointer* to this TYPE:
+#
+#	  TYPE *p;
+#
+# but you know fairly well that this is legal in C for aggregates which
+# are unknown (TYPE = struct does-not-exist).
+#
+# Then you think of using sizeof to make sure the TYPE is really
+# defined:
+#
+#	  sizeof (TYPE);
+#
+# That is great, but has one drawback: it succeeds when TYPE happens
+# to be a variable: you'd get the size of the variable's type.
+# Obviously, we must not accept a variable in place of a type name.
+#
+# So, to filter out the last possibility, we will require that this fail:
+#
+#	  sizeof ((TYPE));
+#
+# This evokes a syntax error when TYPE is a type, but succeeds if TYPE
+# is actually a variable.
+#
+# Also note that we use
+#
+#	  if (sizeof (TYPE))
+#
+# to `read' sizeof (to avoid warnings), while not depending on its type
+# (not necessarily size_t etc.).
+#
+# C++ disallows defining types inside `sizeof ()', but that's OK,
+# since we don't want to consider unnamed structs to be types for C++,
+# precisely because they don't work in cases like that.

+dnl Catching signals correctly:
+dnl
+dnl The first idea was: trap the signal, send it to all spawned jobs,
+dnl then reset the handler and reraise the signal for ourselves.
+dnl However, before exiting, ksh will then send the signal to all
+dnl process group members, potentially killing the outer testsuite
+dnl and/or the 'make' process driving us.
+dnl So now the strategy is: trap the signal, send it to all spawned jobs,
+dnl then exit the script with the right status.
+dnl
+dnl In order to let the jobs know about the signal, we cannot just send it
+dnl to the current process group (kill $SIG 0), for the same reason as above.
+dnl Also, it does not reliably stop the suite to send the signal to the
+dnl spawned processes, because they might not transport it further
+dnl (maybe this can be fixed?).
+dnl
+dnl So what we do is enable shell job control if available, which causes the
+dnl shell to start each parallel task as its own shell job, thus as a new
+dnl process group leader.  We then send the signal to all new process groups.

+# _AT_DECIDE_TRACEABLE(COMMANDS)
+# ------------------------------
+# Worker for _AT_CHECK that expands to shell code.  If COMMANDS are safe to
+# trace with `set -x', the shell code will evaluate to true.  Otherwise,
+# the shell code will print a message stating an aspect of COMMANDS that makes
+# tracing them unsafe, and evaluate to false.
+#
+# Tracing COMMANDS is not safe if they contain a command that spans multiple
+# lines.  When the test suite user passes `-x' or `--trace', the test suite
+# precedes every command with a `set -x'.  Since most tests expect a specific
+# stderr, if only to confirm that it is empty, the test suite filters ^+ from
+# the captured stderr before comparing with the expected stderr.  If a command
+# spans multiple lines, so will its trace, but a `+' only prefixes the first
+# line of that trace:
+#
+# $ echo 'foo
+# bar'
+# => stdout
+# foo
+# bar
+# => stderr
+# + foo
+# bar
+#
+# In a subset of cases, one could filter such extended shell traces from
+# stderr.  Since test commands spanning several lines are rare, I chose
+# instead to simply not trace COMMANDS that could yield multiple trace lines.
+# Distinguishing such COMMANDS became the task at hand.
+#
+# These features may cause a shell command to span multiple lines:
+#
+# (a) A quoted literal newline.
+# Example:
+#   echo foo'
+#   'bar
+# M4 is a hostile language for the job of parsing COMMANDS to determine whether
+# each literal newline is quoted, so we simply disable tracing for all COMMANDS
+# that bear literal newlines.
+#
+# (b) A command substitution not subject to word splitting.
+# Example:
+#   var=$(printf 'foo\nbar')
+# Example:
+#   echo "`printf 'foo\\nbar`"
+# One cannot know in general the number of lines a command substitution will
+# yield without executing the substituted command.  As such, we disable tracing
+# for all COMMANDS containing these constructs.
+#
+# (c) A parameter expansion not subject to word splitting.
+# Example:
+#   var=foo'
+#   'bar
+#   echo "$var"
+# Parameter expansions appear in COMMANDS with much greater frequency than do
+# newlines and command substitutions, so disabling tracing for all such
+# COMMANDS would much more substantially devalue `testsuite -x'.  To determine
+# which parameter expansions yield multiple lines, we escape all ``', `"',
+# and `\' in a copy of COMMANDS and expand that string within double quotes
+# at runtime.  If the result of that expansion contains multiple lines, the
+# test suite disables tracing for the command in question.
+#
+# This method leads the test suite to expand some parameters that the shell
+# itself will never expand due to single-quotes or backslash escapes.  This is
+# not a problem for `$foo' expansions, which will simply yield the empty string
+# or some unrelated value.  A `${...}' expansion could actually form invalid
+# shell code, however; consider `${=foo}'.  Therefore, we disable tracing for
+# all COMMANDS containing `${...}'.  This affects few COMMANDS.
+#
+# This macro falls in a very hot path; the Autoconf test suite expands it 1640
+# times as of this writing.  To give a sense of the impact of the heuristics I
+# just described, the test suite preemptively disables tracing for 31 of those,
+# and 268 contain parameter expansions that require runtime evaluation.  The

+#
+# Implementation Details
+# ----------------------
+# Ideally, we would like to run
+#
+#    ( $at_traceon; COMMANDS >at-stdout 2> at-stderr )
+#
+# but we must group COMMANDS as it is not limited to a single command, and
+# then the shells will save the traces in at-stderr. So we have to filter
+# them out when checking stderr, and we must send them into the test suite's
+# stderr to honor -x properly. Since only the first line of the trace of a
+# multiline command starts with a `+', and I know of no straightforward way to
+# filter out the unadorned trace lines, we disable shell tracing entirely for
+# commands that could span multiple lines.
+#
+# Limiting COMMANDS to a single command is not good either, since then
+# the user herself would use {} or (), and then we face the same problem.
+#
+# But then, there is no point in running
+#
+#   ( $at_traceon { $1 ; } >at-stdout 2>at-stder1 )
+#
+# instead of the simpler
+#
+#  ( $at_traceon; $1 ) >at-stdout 2>at-stder1
+#
+# Note that we truncate and append to the output files, to avoid losing
+# output from multiple concurrent processes, e.g., an inner testsuite
+# with parallel jobs.

+# In M4 1.4.x, every byte of $@ is rescanned.  This means that an
+# algorithm on n arguments that recurses with one less argument each
+# iteration will scan n * (n + 1) / 2 arguments, for O(n^2) time.  In
+# M4 1.6, this was fixed so that $@ is only scanned once, then
+# back-references are made to information stored about the scan.
+# Thus, n iterations need only scan n arguments, for O(n) time.
+# Additionally, in M4 1.4.x, recursive algorithms did not clean up
+# memory very well, requiring O(n^2) memory rather than O(n) for n
+# iterations.
+#
+# This file is designed to overcome the quadratic nature of $@
+# recursion by writing a variant of m4_foreach that uses m4_for rather
+# than $@ recursion to operate on the list.  This involves more macro
+# expansions, but avoids the need to rescan a quadratic number of
+# arguments, making these replacements very attractive for M4 1.4.x.
+# On the other hand, in any version of M4, expanding additional macros
+# costs additional time; therefore, in M4 1.6, where $@ recursion uses
+# fewer macros, these replacements actually pessimize performance.
+# Additionally, the use of $10 to mean the tenth argument violates
+# POSIX; although all versions of m4 1.4.x support this meaning, a
+# future m4 version may switch to take it as the first argument
+# concatenated with a literal 0, so the implementations in this file
+# are not future-proof.  Thus, this file is conditionally included as
+# part of m4_init(), only when it is detected that M4 probably has
+# quadratic behavior (ie. it lacks the macro __m4_version__).
+#
+# Please keep this file in sync with m4sugar.m4.
+
+# _m4_foreach(PRE, POST, IGNORED, ARG...)
+# ---------------------------------------
+# Form the common basis of the m4_foreach and m4_map macros.  For each
+# ARG, expand PRE[ARG]POST[].  The IGNORED argument makes recursion
+# easier, and must be supplied rather than implicit.
+#
+# This version minimizes the number of times that $@ is evaluated by
+# using m4_for to generate a boilerplate into _m4_f then passing $@ to
+# that temporary macro.  Thus, the recursion is done in m4_for without
+# reparsing any user input, and is not quadratic.  For an idea of how
+# this works, note that m4_foreach(i,[1,2],[i]) calls
+#   _m4_foreach([m4_define([i],],[)i],[],[1],[2])
+# which defines _m4_f:
+#   $1[$4]$2[]$1[$5]$2[]_m4_popdef([_m4_f])
+# then calls _m4_f([m4_define([i],],[)i],[],[1],[2]) for a net result:

+# INDENT-COLUMN which is the column where wrapped lines should begin
+# (the default of 26 is recommended), and a decimal WRAP-COLUMN which is
+# the column where lines should wrap (the default of 79 is recommended).
+# LHS is expanded, RHS is not.
+#
+# For backwards compatibility not documented in the manual, INDENT-COLUMN
+# can also be specified as a string of white spaces, whose width
+# determines the indentation column.  Using TABs in INDENT-COLUMN is not
+# recommended, since screen width of TAB is not computed.
+#
+# The resulting string is suitable for use in other macros that require
+# a help string (e.g. AC_ARG_WITH).
+#
+# Here is the sample string from the Autoconf manual (Node: External
+# Software) which shows the proper spacing for help strings.

+#  | column 2                column 26
+#  |
+#  column 0
+#
+# A help string is made up of a "left hand side" (LHS) and a "right
+# hand side" (RHS).  In the example above, the LHS is
+# "--with-readline", while the RHS is "support fancy command line
+# editing".
+#
+# If the LHS contains more than (INDENT-COLUMN - 3) characters, then the
+# LHS is terminated with a newline so that the RHS starts on a line of its

+# LHS with more than 23 characters.

+# Therefore, in the example, if the LHS were instead

+# must be complex to safely deal with ``, while a simpler
+# expression IF-SIMPLE-REF can be used if the indirection
+# involves only shell variable expansion (as in ${varname}).
+#
+# EXPRESSION is treated as a literal if it results in the same
+# interpretation whether it is unquoted or contained within double
+# quotes, with the exception that whitespace is ignored (on the
+# assumption that it will be flattened to _).  Therefore, neither `\$'
+# nor `a''b' is a literal, since both backslash and single quotes have
+# different quoting behavior in the two contexts; and `a*' is not a
+# literal, because it has different globbing.  Note, however, that
+# while `${a+b}' is neither a literal nor a simple ref, `a+b' is a
+# literal.  This macro is an *approximation*: it is possible that
+# there are some EXPRESSIONs which the shell would treat as literals,
+# but which this macro does not recognize.
+#
+# Why do we reject EXPRESSION expanding with `[' or `]' as a literal?
+# Because AS_TR_SH is MUCH faster if it can use m4_translit on literals
+# instead of m4_bpatsubst; but m4_translit is much tougher to do safely
+# if `[' is translated.  That, and file globbing matters.
+#
+# Note that the quadrigraph @S|@ can result in non-literals, but outright
+# rejecting all @ would make AC_INIT complain on its bug report address.
+#
+# We used to use m4_bmatch(m4_quote($1), [[`$]], [$3], [$2]), but
+# profiling shows that it is faster to use m4_translit.
+#
+# Because the translit is stripping quotes, it must also neutralize
+# anything that might be in a macro name, as well as comments, commas,
+# or unbalanced parentheses.  Valid shell variable characters and
+# unambiguous literal characters are deleted (`a.b'), and remaining
+# characters are normalized into `$' if they can form simple refs
+# (${a}), `+' if they can potentially form literals (a+b), ``' if they
+# can interfere with m4 parsing, or left alone otherwise.  If both `$'
+# and `+' are left, it is treated as a complex reference (${a+b}),
+# even though it could technically be a simple reference (${a}+b).
+# _AS_LITERAL_IF_ only has to check for an empty string after removing
+# one of the two normalized characters.
+#
+# Rather than expand m4_defn every time AS_LITERAL_IF is expanded, we
+# inline its expansion up front.  _AS_LITERAL_IF expands to the name
+# of a macro that takes three arguments: IF-SIMPLE-REF,
+# IF-NOT-LITERAL, IF-LITERAL.  It also takes an optional argument of
+# any additional characters to allow as literals (useful for AS_TR_SH

+# Define DST as the definition of SRC.
+# What's the difference between:
+# 1. m4_copy([from], [to])
+# 2. m4_define([to], [from($@)])
+# Well, obviously 1 is more expensive in space.  Maybe 2 is more expensive
+# in time, but because of the space cost of 1, it's not that obvious.
+# Nevertheless, one huge difference is the handling of `$0'.  If `from'
+# uses `$0', then with 1, `to''s `$0' is `to', while it is `from' in 2.
+# The user would certainly prefer to see `to'.

+# there are no pushdef stacks; later on, we redefine it to something

+#
+# Bingo!

+# With a better look, you realize that the parens are more a pain than

+# Now, just replace the `$2' with `m4_quote($2)' in the outer `m4_if'
+# to improve robustness, and you come up with a nice implementation

+# bring the system to its knees with the memory m4 then requires, or trip

+# quadratic growth is ensure m4_shift is expanded prior to the recursion.
+# Hence the design below.
+#

+## 10. Defining macros with bells and whistles.  ##
+## --------------------------------------------- ##
+
+# `m4_defun' is basically `m4_define' but it equips the macro with the
+# needed machinery for `m4_require'.  A macro must be m4_defun'd if
+# either it is m4_require'd, or it m4_require's.
+#
+# Two things deserve attention and are detailed below:
+#  1. Implementation of m4_require
+#  2. Keeping track of the expansion stack
+#
+# 1. Implementation of m4_require
+# ===============================
+#
+# Of course m4_defun calls m4_provide, so that a macro which has
+# been expanded is not expanded again when m4_require'd, but the
+# difficult part is the proper expansion of macros when they are
+# m4_require'd.
+#
+# The implementation is based on three ideas, (i) using diversions to
+# prepare the expansion of the macro and its dependencies (by Franc,ois
+# Pinard), (ii) expand the most recently m4_require'd macros _after_
+# the previous macros (by Axel Thimm), and (iii) track instances of
+# provide before require (by Eric Blake).
+#
+#
+# The first idea: why use diversions?
+# -----------------------------------
+#
+# When a macro requires another, the other macro is expanded in new
+# diversion, GROW.  When the outer macro is fully expanded, we first
+# undivert the most nested diversions (GROW - 1...), and finally
+# undivert GROW.  To understand why we need several diversions,
+# consider the following example:
+#
+# | m4_defun([TEST1], [Test...m4_require([TEST2])1])
+# | m4_defun([TEST2], [Test...m4_require([TEST3])2])
+# | m4_defun([TEST3], [Test...3])
+#
+# Because m4_require is not required to be first in the outer macros, we
+# must keep the expansions of the various levels of m4_require separated.
+# Right before executing the epilogue of TEST1, we have:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2: Test...3
+#	   GROW - 1: Test...2
+#	   GROW:     Test...1
+#	   BODY:
+#
+# Finally the epilogue of TEST1 undiverts GROW - 2, GROW - 1, and
+# GROW into the regular flow, BODY.
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1:
+#	   GROW:
+#	   BODY:        Test...3; Test...2; Test...1
+#
+# (The semicolons are here for clarification, but of course are not
+# emitted.)  This is what Autoconf 2.0 (I think) to 2.13 (I'm sure)
+# implement.
+#
+#
+# The second idea: first required first out
+# -----------------------------------------
+#
+# The natural implementation of the idea above is buggy and produces
+# very surprising results in some situations.  Let's consider the
+# following example to explain the bug:
+#
+# | m4_defun([TEST1],  [m4_require([TEST2a])m4_require([TEST2b])])
+# | m4_defun([TEST2a], [])
+# | m4_defun([TEST2b], [m4_require([TEST3])])
+# | m4_defun([TEST3],  [m4_require([TEST2a])])
+# |
+# | AC_INIT
+# | TEST1
+#
+# The dependencies between the macros are:
+#
+#		 3 --- 2b
+#		/        \              is m4_require'd by
+#	       /          \       left -------------------- right
+#	    2a ------------ 1
+#
+# If you strictly apply the rules given in the previous section you get:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2: TEST3
+#	   GROW - 1: TEST2a; TEST2b
+#	   GROW:     TEST1
+#	   BODY:
+#
+# (TEST2a, although required by TEST3 is not expanded in GROW - 3
+# because is has already been expanded before in GROW - 1, so it has
+# been AC_PROVIDE'd, so it is not expanded again) so when you undivert
+# the stack of diversions, you get:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1:
+#	   GROW:
+#	   BODY:        TEST3; TEST2a; TEST2b; TEST1
+#
+# i.e., TEST2a is expanded after TEST3 although the latter required the
+# former.
+#
+# Starting from 2.50, we use an implementation provided by Axel Thimm.
+# The idea is simple: the order in which macros are emitted must be the
+# same as the one in which macros are expanded.  (The bug above can
+# indeed be described as: a macro has been m4_provide'd before its
+# dependent, but it is emitted after: the lack of correlation between
+# emission and expansion order is guilty).
+#
+# How to do that?  You keep the stack of diversions to elaborate the
+# macros, but each time a macro is fully expanded, emit it immediately.
+#
+# In the example above, when TEST2a is expanded, but it's epilogue is
+# not run yet, you have:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1: TEST2a
+#	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
+#	   BODY:
+#
+# The epilogue of TEST2a emits it immediately:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1:
+#	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
+#	   BODY:     TEST2a
+#
+# TEST2b then requires TEST3, so right before the epilogue of TEST3, you
+# have:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2: TEST3
+#	   GROW - 1: Elaboration of TEST2b
+#	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
+#	   BODY:      TEST2a
+#
+# The epilogue of TEST3 emits it:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1: Elaboration of TEST2b
+#	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
+#	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3
+#
+# TEST2b is now completely expanded, and emitted:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1:
+#	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
+#	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3; TEST2b
+#
+# and finally, TEST1 is finished and emitted:
+#
+#	   GROW - 2:
+#	   GROW - 1:
+#	   GROW:
+#	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3; TEST2b: TEST1
+#
+# The idea is simple, but the implementation is a bit involved.  If
+# you are like me, you will want to see the actual functioning of this
+# implementation to be convinced.  The next section gives the full
+# details.
+#
+#
+# The Axel Thimm implementation at work
+# -------------------------------------
+#
+# We consider the macros above, and this configure.ac:
+#
+#	    AC_INIT
+#	    TEST1
+#
+# You should keep the definitions of _m4_defun_pro, _m4_defun_epi, and
+# m4_require at hand to follow the steps.
+#
+# This implementation tries not to assume that the current diversion is
+# BODY, so as soon as a macro (m4_defun'd) is expanded, we first
+# record the current diversion under the name _m4_divert_dump (denoted
+# DUMP below for short).  This introduces an important difference with
+# the previous versions of Autoconf: you cannot use m4_require if you
+# are not inside an m4_defun'd macro, and especially, you cannot
+# m4_require directly from the top level.
+#
+# We have not tried to simulate the old behavior (better yet, we
+# diagnose it), because it is too dangerous: a macro m4_require'd from
+# the top level is expanded before the body of `configure', i.e., before
+# any other test was run.  I let you imagine the result of requiring
+# AC_STDC_HEADERS for instance, before AC_PROG_CC was actually run....
+#
+# After AC_INIT was run, the current diversion is BODY.
+# * AC_INIT was run
+#   DUMP:                undefined
+#   diversion stack:     BODY |-
+#
+# * TEST1 is expanded
+# The prologue of TEST1 sets _m4_divert_dump, which is the diversion
+# where the current elaboration will be dumped, to the current

+#
+# The third idea: track macros provided before they were required
+# ---------------------------------------------------------------
+#
+# Using just the first two ideas, Autoconf 2.50 through 2.63 still had
+# a subtle bug for more than seven years.  Let's consider the
+# following example to explain the bug:
+#
+# | m4_defun([TEST1], [1])
+# | m4_defun([TEST2], [2[]m4_require([TEST1])])
+# | m4_defun([TEST3], [3 TEST1 m4_require([TEST2])])
+# | TEST3
+#
+# After the prologue of TEST3, we are collecting text in GROW with the
+# intent of dumping it in BODY during the epilogue.  Next, we
+# encounter the direct invocation of TEST1, which provides the macro
+# in place in GROW.  From there, we encounter a requirement for TEST2,
+# which must be collected in a new diversion.  While expanding TEST2,
+# we encounter a requirement for TEST1, but since it has already been
+# expanded, the Axel Thimm algorithm states that we can treat it as a
+# no-op.  But that would lead to an end result of `2 3 1', meaning
+# that we have once again output a macro (TEST2) prior to its
+# requirements (TEST1).
+#
+# The problem can only occur if a single defun'd macro first provides,
+# then later indirectly requires, the same macro.  Note that directly
+# expanding then requiring a macro is okay: because the dependency was
+# met, the require phase can be a no-op.  For that matter, the outer
+# macro can even require two helpers, where the first helper expands
+# the macro, and the second helper indirectly requires the macro.
+# Out-of-order expansion is only present if the inner macro is
+# required by something that will be hoisted in front of where the
+# direct expansion occurred.  In other words, we must be careful not
+# to warn on:
+#
+# | m4_defun([TEST4], [4])
+# | m4_defun([TEST5], [5 TEST4 m4_require([TEST4])])
+# | TEST5 => 5 4
+#
+# or even the more complex:
+#
+# | m4_defun([TEST6], [6])
+# | m4_defun([TEST7], [7 TEST6])
+# | m4_defun([TEST8], [8 m4_require([TEST6])])
+# | m4_defun([TEST9], [9 m4_require([TEST8])])
+# | m4_defun([TEST10], [10 m4_require([TEST7]) m4_require([TEST9])])
+# | TEST10 => 7 6 8 9 10
+#
+# So, to detect whether a require was direct or indirect, m4_defun and
+# m4_require track the name of the macro that caused a diversion to be
+# created (using the stack _m4_diverting, coupled with an O(1) lookup
+# _m4_diverting([NAME])), and m4_provide stores the name associated
+# with the diversion at which a macro was provided.  A require call is
+# direct if it occurs within the same diversion where the macro was
+# provided, or if the diversion associated with the providing context
+# has been collected.
+#
+# The implementation of the warning involves tracking the set of
+# macros which have been provided since the start of the outermost
+# defun'd macro (the set is named _m4_provide).  When starting an
+# outermost macro, the set is emptied; when a macro is provided, it is
+# added to the set; when require expands the body of a macro, it is
+# removed from the set; and when a macro is indirectly required, the
+# set is checked.  If a macro is in the set, then it has been provided
+# before it was required, and we satisfy dependencies by expanding the
+# macro as if it had never been provided; in the example given above,
+# this means we now output `1 2 3 1'.  Meanwhile, a warning is issued
+# to inform the user that her macros trigger the bug in older autoconf
+# versions, and that her output file now contains redundant contents
+# (and possibly new problems, if the repeated macro was not
+# idempotent).  Meanwhile, macros defined by m4_defun_once instead of
+# m4_defun are idempotent, avoiding any warning or duplicate output.
+#
+#
+# 2. Keeping track of the expansion stack
+# =======================================
+#
+# When M4 expansion goes wrong it is often extremely hard to find the
+# path amongst macros that drove to the failure.  What is needed is
+# the stack of macro `calls'. One could imagine that GNU M4 would
+# maintain a stack of macro expansions, unfortunately it doesn't, so
+# we do it by hand.  This is of course extremely costly, but the help
+# this stack provides is worth it.  Nevertheless to limit the
+# performance penalty this is implemented only for m4_defun'd macros,
+# not for define'd macros.
+#
+# Each time we enter an m4_defun'd macros, we add a definition in
+# _m4_expansion_stack, and when we exit the macro, we remove it (thanks
+# to pushdef/popdef).  m4_stack_foreach is used to print the expansion
+# stack in the rare cases when it's needed.
+#
+# In addition, we want to detect circular m4_require dependencies.
+# Each time we expand a macro FOO we define _m4_expanding(FOO); and
+# m4_require(BAR) simply checks whether _m4_expanding(BAR) is defined.
+
+
+# m4_expansion_stack
+# ------------------
+# Expands to the entire contents of the expansion stack.  The caller
+# must supply a trailing newline.  This macro always prints a
+# location; check whether _m4_expansion_stack is defined to filter out
+# the case when no defun'd macro is in force.

+[m4_stack_foreach_sep_lifo([_$0], [_$0_entry(], [)

+## 15. Set handling.  ##
+## ------------------ ##
+
+# Autoconf likes to create arbitrarily large sets; for example, as of
+# this writing, the configure.ac for coreutils tracks a set of more
+# than 400 AC_SUBST.  How do we track all of these set members,
+# without introducing duplicates?  We could use m4_append_uniq, with
+# the set NAME residing in the contents of the macro NAME.
+# Unfortunately, m4_append_uniq is quadratic for set creation, because
+# it costs O(n) to search the string for each of O(n) insertions; not
+# to mention that with m4 1.4.x, even using m4_append is slow, costing
+# O(n) rather than O(1) per insertion.  Other set operations, not used
+# by Autoconf but still possible by manipulation of the definition
+# tracked in macro NAME, include O(n) deletion of one element and O(n)
+# computation of set size.  Because the set is exposed to the user via
+# the definition of a single macro, we cannot cache any data about the
+# set without risking the cache being invalidated by the user
+# redefining NAME.
+#
+# Can we do better?  Yes, because m4 gives us an O(1) search function
+# for free: ifdef.  Additionally, even m4 1.4.x gives us an O(1)
+# insert operation for free: pushdef.  But to use these, we must
+# represent the set via a group of macros; to keep the set consistent,
+# we must hide the set so that the user can only manipulate it through
+# accessor macros.  The contents of the set are maintained through two
+# access points; _m4_set([name]) is a pushdef stack of values in the
+# set, useful for O(n) traversal of the set contents; while the
+# existence of _m4_set([name],value) with no particular value is
+# useful for O(1) querying of set membership.  And since the user
+# cannot externally manipulate the set, we are free to add additional
+# caching macros for other performance improvements.  Deletion can be
+# O(1) per element rather than O(n), by reworking the definition of
+# _m4_set([name],value) to be 0 or 1 based on current membership, and
+# adding _m4_set_cleanup(name) to defer the O(n) cleanup of
+# _m4_set([name]) until we have another reason to do an O(n)
+# traversal.  The existence of _m4_set_cleanup(name) can then be used
+# elsewhere to determine if we must dereference _m4_set([name],value),
+# or assume that definition implies set membership.  Finally, size can
+# be tracked in an O(1) fashion with _m4_set_size(name).
+#
+# The quoting in _m4_set([name],value) is chosen so that there is no
+# ambiguity with a set whose name contains a comma, and so that we can
+# supply the value via _m4_defn([_m4_set([name])]) without needing any
+# quote manipulation.

+.SH NAME
+autom4te \- Generate files and scripts thanks to M4
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B autom4te
+[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIFILES\fR]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Run GNU M4 on the FILES, avoiding useless runs.  Output the traces if tracing,
+the frozen file if freezing, otherwise the expansion of the FILES.
+.PP
+If some of the FILES are named `FILE.m4f' they are considered to be M4
+frozen files of all the previous files (which are therefore not loaded).
+If `FILE.m4f' is not found, then `FILE.m4' will be used, together with
+all the previous files.
+.PP
+Some files may be optional, i.e., will only be processed if found in the
+include path, but then must end in `.m4?';  the question mark is not part of
+the actual file name.

+By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their
+sources.  If you install new versions of the GNU Build System,
+you can make `autoreconf' remake all of the files by giving it the
+`\-\-force' option.
