+       Make install-sh work even when names contain spaces or
+       certain (but not all) shell metachars.
+
+       * lib/install-sh: Remove lots of unnecessary quoting.
+       Add double quotes where necessary.
+       Write diagnostics to stderr, not stdout.
+       Normalize spacing in diagnostics: use one space (not two,
+       and not a TAB) after the leading `install:'.
+       Remove trailing white space.
+       Remove unnecessary curly braces.
+       If removing the destination fails, also try to move it aside.
+       Use `trap' more portably.
+       * tests/installsh2.test: New file, to test for the above fix.
+       * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add installsh2.test.
+
        * automake.texi: Fix some typos and a grammar nit.
