+ test defs: unindent without temporary file
+ * tests/defs.in (commented_sed_unindent_prog): Commented Sed program

+
+ libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES primary is used
+ When the LTLIBRARIES primary was used, but $(LIBTOOL) wasn't
+ defined, automake suggested to add a call to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
+ in configure.ac. But that macro is deprecated since Libtool
+ version 1.9b (2004-08-29), in favor of the newer LT_INIT. So
+ suggest the use of this latter macro instead.
+ * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_am_macro_for_var): Pair 'LIBTOOL'
+ with 'LT_INIT', not with 'AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'.
+ * libtool4.test: Adjust and extend. Also, add a call to macro
+ AC_PROG_CC in configure.in, to help ensuring that automake does
+ not fail for the wrong reasons.
+ * ltinit.test: New test, ensure that automake's libtool support
+ works with LT_INIT-based interface.
+ Thanks to Jack Kelly for the suggestion.

+ Fix spurious failures in `silent*.test' for $CC != gcc
+ In some tests on automake-produced silent rules, we forced the
