+       parallel-tests: automake error our on invalid TEST_EXTENSIONS
+       This change fixes automake bug#9400.
+       * automake.in (handle_tests): Bail out if a suffix specified in
+       TEST_EXTENSIONS would produce an invalid `xxx_LOG_COMPILER'
+       variable or an invalid suffix rule.  Before this change, automake
+       would have issued a confusing error messages (about invalid or
+       non-POSIX variables being defined), and in some situations would
+       have even produced a broken `Makefile.in' file.
+       ($TEST_EXTENSION_PATTERN): New helper variable.
+       * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Document
+       the limitations on TEST_EXTENSIONS explicitly.
+       * NEWS: Update.
+       * tests/test-extensions.test: New test.
+       * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

 +
 +      docs: don't suggest installing `.m4' files in hard-coded location
 +      This change fixes automake bug#7988.
 +      * doc/automake.texi (aclocal Options): State that the use of
 +      the `--print-ac-dir' option to determine the directory where
 +      third-party packages can install their `.m4' files is discouraged
 +      now.
 +      (Extending aclocal): Suggest telling the user about ACLOCAL_PATH.
 +      * THANKS: Update.
 +      Report by Peter Johansson.

 +
 +      distuninstallcheck: fail also when only one file is left installed
 +      This change fixes automake bug#9579.
 +      * lib/am/distdir.am (distuninstallcheck): Be stricter in ignoring
 +      a potential `dir' file created by install-info and left installed.
 +      Also, be more careful about "this can't happen" kind of errors.
 +      (am__distuninstallcheck_listfiles): New internal helper macro.
 +      * tests/distcheck-pr9579.test: New test.
 +      * tests/distcheck-override-infodir.test: Likewise.
 +      * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
 +      * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
 +      Report by Nick Bowler.

 +
 +      maintcheck: fix usage of `cd' instead of `$(am__cd)'
 +      * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__uninstall_files_from_dir): Use
 +      `$(am__cd)', not plain `cd'.
 +
 +2011-09-24  Stefano Lattarini  <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
 +
 +      uninstall: "make uninstall" before "make install" works
 +      This change fixes automake bug#9578.
 +      * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__uninstall_files_from_dir): New internal
 +      macro, that defines a shell code fragment to uninstall files from
 +      a given directory.
 +      * lib/am/data.am (uninstall-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Use it, to reduce code
 +      duplication and improve consistency and correctness.
 +      * lib/am/libs.am (uninstall-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
 +      * lib/am/lisp.am (uninstall-%DIR%LISP): Likewise.
