In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use
https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading
software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to
Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is
downstream of, which I'll patch separately.
Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to
malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers,
and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other
countries browse US-based websites. See, for example:
Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar
S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI
2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626
HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant
help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should
take some care here.

Instead, properly use the -E, -O, or -M options of run_make.
The occurrences of the 'run_make' invocations using output
redirection has been found by the recently-introduced maintainer
check 'sc_tests_no_run_make_redirect'.
* t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh: Adjust.
* t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
* Several other tests: Likewise.

We now do so with a new wrapper shell function 'run_make()', which
relies on the use of AM_MAKEFLAGS, avoiding the use of the '-e' make
option. The use of that option (that causes the environment variables
to take precedence over the macro definitions in the Makefile) has
proved to be quite brittle in the past, causing annoying and sometimes
problematic spurious failures. This has worsened in some still
unpublished work going on in development branches. It's time to solve
the issue once and for all.
Note that we do not convert all uses of $MAKE in the testsuite right
away; we might do so in follow-up changes, with leisure, to avoid a
"patch bomb" effect (this commit is already too much of a bomb itself).
What we do in this commit is to get rid of all "$MAKE -e" invocations.
We admit that the implementation and feature-set of 'run_make()' are
far from perfect, but good enough for our current purposes. We'll
improve 'run_make()' if and when the need arises.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_make_e): New syntax check, guard against
the use of "$MAKE -e".
(syntax_check_rules): Add it.
(sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline): Adjust.
(lint): New, alias for 'maintainer-check', for lazy typists. Idea
backported from the 'maint' branch (Automake 1.13a).
* t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (run_make): New function. Run $MAKE with the
given command-line arguments, handling command-line override of variable
definitions in a smart way (using AM_MAKEFLAGS if a non-GNU make
implementation is detected to be in use).
(useless_vpath_rebuild): Adjust to use 'run_make', to avoid a spurious
maintainer check failure.
(yl_distcheck): Use 'run_make' rather than bare '$MAKE'.
(single_quote, append_single_quoted, is_valid_varname): New auxiliary
function, used, directly or indirectly, by it.
* Many tests: Adjust to avoid the use of "$MAKE -e", and prefer the
use of 'run_make' in few other contexts as well, where it makes sense.
Other minor fixlets while at it.

It gives the impression that they are directly runnable, as with
"./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that was the case. Today,
tests are runnable only through "make check" or "./runtest".
This change is for the 'micro' branch (automake 1.13.2a). It will
soon be followed by similar patches for the 'maint' branch (automake
1.13a) and the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a).
* t/*.sh, t/*.tap: Remove executable bit.
* maint.mk (sc_tests_executable): Remove.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
* gen-testsuite-part: Set permissions of generated tests to
'444' (-r--r--r--), rather than 555 (-r-xr-xr-x).

This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8,
"tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh"
* All tests: To run the common setup, use the command:
. test-init.sh
instead of the older, "historical" one:
. ./defs || exit 1
Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit'
shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all
the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite
do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found
(at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only
mode that concerns us in the testsuite).
* t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
* gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

Now that the early $PATH setup in both 'runtest' and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
allow the '.' built-in to find to-be-sourced shell scripts in the 't/ax/'
directory automatically, we can simplify several usages like:
. "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh
to just:
. foo.sh
Also, because our test scripts run with the 'errexit' flag active, and
because POSIX mandates that, when the '.' built-in is used,
... if no readable file is found, a non-interactive shell shall abort ...
we can further simplify usages like:
. "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh || fatal_ "sourcing foo.sh"
once again to to just:
. foo.sh
* ./defs, several tests: Adjusted.

Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we
can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated
correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot
dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required
by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh).
For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry
about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the
Autoconf manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap>
The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following
shells:
- Bash 4.1
- Bash 3.2
- Bash 3.0
- Bash 2.05b
- dash 0.5.5.1
- dash 0.5.2
- AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package)
- MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package)
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh
* t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ...
(_am_exit): ... like this.
(exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit'
as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10
/bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it.
(_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we
really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same
name.
* configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite
supports aliases named like shell builtins.
* t/REAMDE: Adjust.
* All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'.
* t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit'
after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t.
that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be
honored.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete.
(sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
(sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little.
* Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required
to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check.
* gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the
generated scripts.

Since commit 'v1.12-36-g2d68fd9' of 2012-05-07, "configure: search a
sturdy POSIX shell to be used in the testsuite", the shell running
our test script is assured to be a POSIX-conforming shell, so we can
use the more modern and flexible idioms and features that we couldn't
use when we also aimed at compatibility with non-POSIX Bourne shells,
like Solaris /bin/sh.
* t/README: Suggest to use POSIX shell features liberally in test cases,
with possible exception of Makefile recipes and configure shell code.
* Several tests: Adjust to use more POSIX shell features; e.g., $(...)
rather than `...`, $((...)) rather than `expr ...`, "if ! CMD; then ..."
instead of "if CMD; then :; else ...", and so on.
In several places, when using the 'test' built-in, prefer '-eq' over
'=' for numeric comparisons, and prefer "grep -c PATTERN FILE" over
"grep PATTERN FILE | wc -l".
Throw in other low-hanging easy improvements and fixlets while we are
at it.
* t/ax/depcomp.sh, t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/tap-functions.sh,
defs, defs-static.in: Likewise.

This will help our transition from 'serial-tests' to 'parallel-tests'
as the default test suite driver enabled by a TESTS assignment in the
input Makefile.am. Note that that change of default will only take
place in master, though.
* defs: Pass the 'parallel-tests' option to the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
invocation in the created 'configure.ac' stub, unless the variable
'am_serial_tests' is set to "yes". Don't pay attention anymore to
the 'am_parallel_tests' variable, that's obsolete now.
* defs-static.in: Warn if the 'am_serial_tests' variable is set in the
environment; conversely, don't warn anymore about 'am_parallel_tests'
being set in the environment.
* Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Nullify the 'am_serial_tests'
variable instead of the now-obsolete 'am_parallel_tests' one.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_obsolete_variables): Also warn against
uses of 'am_parallel_tests', which is now deprecated in favor of
'am_serial_tests'. Similarly, if a use of 'parallel_tests' is seen,
suggest using 'am_serial_tests' instead, not 'am_parallel_tests'.
* gen-testsuite-part: Now that we use the 'parallel-tests' by default
in our tests, we need to completely change the logic and semantics of
generation of sibling tests for those tests that check the Automake
generated testsuite harness itself. Do that, and give a complete
explanation of the new logic and semantics in the relevant comments.
* t/README: Update.
* Lots of test cases: Adjust.

When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive
make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be
prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase
the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of
exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most
notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information.
Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test'
script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test'
will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters.
