+ compile: implement library search to support MSVC static linking
+ * lib/compile (func_cl_wrapper): Implement library search and
+ -static option so that the user can select whether to prefer
+ dll import libraries or static libraries. This enables MSVC to
+ link against dlls generated by libtool without requiring libtool
+ or workarounds such as -lfoo.dll etc. Makes the tests/static.at
+ test case in libtool pass.
+ * tests/compile3.test: Don't trip up if there happens to exist
+ a "foo" library in the library search path.
+ * tests/compile6.test: New test, verifying the library search.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
+

+ * tests/help-depend2.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/help-dmalloc.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/help-init.test: Likewise.

+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
+
+2010-09-14 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ * tests/README: Don't put GCS mandated tools in $required.

+
+ Prefer `$(am__cd)' to plain `cd' in our Makefiles.
+ * Makefile.am (recheck, dist-hook, git-dist, path-check, fetch)
+ (release-stats): Use `$(am__cd)' rather than plain `cd'.
+ * tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/parallel-tests.am): Likewise.
+
+2010-09-12 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Fix regression in test `colon4.test'.
+ * tests/colon4.test: Fix botched editing to `configure.in'
+ that made the test useless. Since we are at it, improve
+ comments and make grepping of generated Makefile.in slighty
+ stricter.
+ Regression introduced by change "Modernize, improve and/or
+ extend tests `colon*.test" (Stefano Lattarini, 2010-08-08).
+
+2010-09-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Do not require "gzip" explicitly in tests.
+ The gzip utility is simply expected to be present on any decent
+ target system for Automake. So it's pointless to put it in
+ $required.
+ * tests/install2.test ($required): Do not require "gzip".
+ * tests/lex3.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/pr9.test: Likewise.
+ From a suggestion by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2010-09-09 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Use AS_HELP_STRING in AM_SILENT_RULES.
+ * m4/silent.m4 (AM_SILENT_RULES): Use `AS_HELP_STRING' to format
+ help message regarding configure options `--enable-silent-rules'
+ and `--disable-silent-rules'. Also throw in a couple of cosmetic
+ changes in the related `case' statement (indentation, balancing
+ of parentheses).
+ * THANKS: Update.
+ From a report by Jeff A. Daily.
+
+2010-09-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Make some `confh*.test' tests more "semantic" (plus tweakings).
+ * tests/confh.test: Run "autoconf", "configure" and "make check",
+ instead of munging/grepping the generated `Makefile.in'.
+ * tests/confh4.test: Relax the grepping of Makefile.in w.r.t.
+ white spaces. Do not create usless dummy source file `foo.c'
+ and useless dummy header file `acconfig.h'.
+ (configure.in): Remove superfluous call to `AC_OUTPUT'.
+ * tests/confh6.test: Add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/confh7.test: In comments, add reference to ...
+ * tests/confh8.test: ... this new test, "semantic" sister
+ of `confh7.test'.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated.
+ Prompted by a report from Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2010-09-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Remove useless whitespace padding in XFAIL_TESTS definition.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove whitespace padding.
+
+2010-09-07 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ parallel-tests: avoid command-line length limit issue.
+ * automake.in (handle_tests): New argument $makefile, new
+ substitution %MAKEFILE%.
+ (generate_makefile): Adjust.
+ * lib/am/check.am [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] (check-TESTS): Pass
+ sanitized TEST_LOGS value as makefile snippet on standard
+ input to $(MAKE), to avoid exceeding the command line limit on
+ w32 (MSYS).
+ * NEWS: Update.
+ Report by Bob Friesenhahn.
+
+ Posix 2008 requires make to set errexit.
+ * lib/am/check.am: Update comment.
+
+2010-08-27 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Fix bug in test missing6.test.
+ * tests/missing6.test: Fix the hack used to edit `configure.in',
+ to avoid producing a configure script that breaks with shells
+ that do not support $LINENO. Also throw in a couple of cosmetic
+ changes.
