+
+ Fix potential regressions in depcomp{3,5}.test.
+ * tests/depcomp3.test: Do not uselessly escape the character `$'
+ in makefile rules, when it's used to expand a make macro.
+ * tests/depcomp5.test: Likewise.

+
+ Docs: clarify how to avoid automatic dependencies tracking.
+ * doc/automake.texi (Automatic dependency tracking): Mention that
+ automatic dependencies tracking is enabled by default, but that
+ the package developer can disable it altogether. Add a reference
+ to the proper section for a more in-depth explanation.
+
+ Fix typo in manual (`Makefile.in' instead of `Makefile.am').
+ * doc/automake.texi (Automatic dependency tracking): Fix typo.
+
+2010-08-16 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+ Don't hide the table of contents.
+ * doc/automake.texi: Move the table of contents to the beginning.

+
+ Optimize compile script on MSYS.
+ * lib/compile (func_file_conv): Add new argument 'lazy' which
+ takes an optional list of conversion types where the requested
+ conversion isn't needed.
+ (func_cl_wrapper): Take advantage of the above for cases where
+ MSYS is doing the conversion for us.
+ Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2010-08-16 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
+
+ Support more C++ file extensions for MSVC in the compile script.
+ * lib/compile (func_cl_wrapper): MSVC only recognizes the .cpp
+ file extension as C++, unless it's given a hint. So hint about
+ .cc, .CC, .cxx, .CXX, c++ and C++. Also do path conversion on
+ .c, .cpp, .CPP, .lib, .LIB and .Lib files.
+ * lib/compile3.test: Test the C++ hinting.

+ archiver, as well as allowing some other options to be passed
+ through to the wrapped archiver.

+ Also, add trailing `:' command, and cosmetic changes in spacing.
+ * tests/pr224.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
+ in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Do not export
+ `CC=gcc' to configure explicitly (it's already exported globally

+ stricter.
+ * tests/pr307.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
+ in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Escape literal
+ dots in grep regular expressions. Also, add a trailing `:'

+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated.
+
