+New in 1.13.3:
+
+* Documentation fixes:
+
+ - The documentation no longer mistakenly reports that the obsolete
+ 'AM_MKDIR_PROG_P' macro and '$(mkdir_p)' make variable are going
+ to be removed in Automake 2.0.
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+
+ - Byte-compilation of Emacs lisp files could fail spuriously on Solaris,
+ when /bin/ksh or /usr/xpg4/bin/sh were used as shell.
+
+ - The same user-defined suffix being transformed into different
+ Automake-known suffixes in different Makefiles could confuse automake
+ and make it generate inconsistent Makefiles (automake bug#14441).
+ For example, if 'Makefile.am' contained a ".ext.cc:" suffix rule, and
+ 'sub/Makefile.am' contained a ".ext.c:" suffix rule, automake would
+ have mistakenly put into 'Makefile.in' rules to compile *.c files
+ into object files, and into 'sub/Makefile.in' rules to compile *.cc
+ files into object files --- rather than the other way around.
+ This is now fixed.
+
+* Testsuite work:
+
+ - The test cases no longer have the executable bit set. This should
+ make it clear that they are not meant to be run directly; as
+ explained in t/README, they can only be run through the custom
+ 'runtest' script, or by a "make check" invocation.
+
+ - The testsuite has seen the introduction of a new helper function
+ 'run_make', and several related changes. These serve a two-fold
+ purpose:
+
+ 1. Removing brittleness due to the use of "make -e" in test cases.
+
+ 2. Seamlessly allowing the use of parallel make ("make -j...") in
+ the test cases, even where redirection of make output is involved
+ (see automake bug#11413 for a description of the subtle issues in
+ this area).
+
+ - Few spurious failures have been fixed (they hit especially MinGW/MSYS).
+ See automake bugs #14493, #14494, #14495, #14498, #14499, #14500 and
+ #14501.
+
+ - Some other minor miscellaneous changes and fixlets.
