+ Skip MSVC oriented tests if the shell is not capable.
+ * tests/defs: New required entry 'xsi-shell'.
+ * tests/ar-lib.test, tests/compile3.test, tests/compile6.test:
+ Require a XSI capable shell.
+ Reported by Ralf Wildenhues.

+ compile: clear the `eat' variable earlier.
+ * lib/compile: Clear the `eat' variable earlier.
+ ($scriptversion): Update.
+ * tests/compile3.test: Prevent regressions.
+
+2010-11-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ More stable configure output from sanity check.
+ * m4/sanity.m4 (AM_SANITY_CHECK): Always print check line
+ about ensuring newer files, even if we don't actually need
+ to wait any more.
+
+2010-11-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ Rebuild menus in the manual.
+ * doc/automake.texi: Rebuild menus (using ^C ^U ^A in emacs).
+ Thanks to Ian Lance Taylor for the suggestion.
+
+ Fix install-strip when $(STRIP) contains several words.
+ * lib/am/install.am (install-strip): Update comment. Use
+ separate sub-make invocations for empty and nonempty $(STRIP),
+ to fix quoting issues.
+ * tests/strip2.test, tests/strip3.test: New tests.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust.

+
+ Fix bug in test `backcompat6.test' (MSYS portability).
+ * tests/backcompat6.test (Makefile.am): Grep the output from the
+ test program, rather than diffing it, to avoid spurious failures
+ on MinGW/MSYS due to LF vs. CRLF line endings.
+ Reported by Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2010-11-13 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Deprecate obsolete macro AM_WITH_REGEX.
+ * m4/regex.m4: Document the `AM_WITH_REGEX' macro as obsolete,
+ and state that it should be removed two years from now.
+ (AM_WITH_REGEX): Raise an m4-time warning of the "obsolete"
+ category when this macro is used.
+ * doc/automake.texi (Public Macros): Move description of
+ `AM_WITH_REGEX' from here ...
+ (Obsolete Macros): ... to here, and declare it as obsolete
+ and "to be removed in a future version".
+ * tests/regex-obsolete.test: New test.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
+
+2010-11-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Improve and extend tests on man pages support.
+ * tests/man.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related changes.
+ Make grepping of generated Makefile.in slighty stricter.
+ * tests/man3.test: Add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/man5.test: Prefer cat + here-doc over echo to append to
+ configure.in.
+ * tests/man2.test: Likewise, and add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/man4.test: More thorough and consistent checking of make
+ error messages. Place fake `help2man' program in a new `bin'
+ directory rather than in `.'. Move the checks using the real
+ `help2man' program to ...
+ * tests/man6.test: ... this new test, and extend them. This test
+ passes with GNU make and Solaris make, still fails with BSD make.
+ * tests/man7.test: New test, extracted from old man4.test, which
+ checks for a bug in maintainer-clean w.r.t. generated manpages.
+ * tests/man8.test: New test, extracted from old man4.test, which
+ checks for a bug in distcheck w.r.t. generated manpages. Passes
+ with GNU make and Solaris make, still fails with BSD make.
+
+2010-11-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Minor improvements and extensions to various tests.
+ * tests/defun.test: Also run autoconf and grep the generated
+ configure to make sure that aclocal truly picks up all the
+ required macros.
+ * tests/compile_f_c_cxx.test: Prefer trailing `:' over trailing
+ `Exit 0'. Do not create useless dummy source files. Do not set
+ useless `$(foo_LDADD)' variable in `Makefile.am'. Do not call
+ useless macro `AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS' in `configure.in'.
+ * tests/compile_f90_c_cxx.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/suffix10.test: Slighty stricter grepping of make output.
+ * tests/compile.test: Add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/defun2.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/vars3.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/vartar.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/vars.test: Likewise. Also, extend test by checking
+ that the definition of `MY_FLAGS*' variables is preserved in
+ the generated `Makefile.in'.
+ * tests/stamph2.test: Prefer trailing `:' over trailing `Exit 0'.
+ Use proper m4 quoting in `configure.in'.
