init: ensure $ac_aux_dir is defined before being used
Since we use '$ac_aux_dir' to define '$am_aux_dir', we need to ensure the former has been initialized before we try to define the latter, otherwise the definition: am_aux_dir=`cd $ac_aux_dir && pwd` will set '$am_aux_dir' to '$HOME', likely causing weird and unexpected behaviours. This change fixes automake bug#15981. * m4/auxdir.m4 (AM_AUX_DIR_EXPAND): AC_REQUIRE expansion of 'AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR_DEFAULT'. Fix redundant comment and AC_PREREQ, add extra quoting around '$ac_aux_dir'. * t/auxdir-pr15981.sh: New test. * t/auxdir-cc-pr15981.sh: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): Add them. * THANKS, NEWS: Update. * bin/automake.in: Fix a harmless typo in comments, that I happened to notice while writing this patch.
