tests: fix spurious failures due to missing 'yywrap()' function
The AC_PROG_LEX Autoconf macro does not diagnose a failure to find
the "lex library" expected to provide a `yywrap' function (function
which is required to link most lex-generated programs). On the
contrary, when all the link attempts (i.e., with `-ll' and `-lfl')
fail, configure declares that no lex library is needed, and simply
proceeds with the configuration process -- only for the build to
possibly fail later, at make time.
This behaviour is intended; the Autoconf manual reads:
``You are encouraged to use Flex in your sources, since it is
both more pleasant to use than plain Lex and the C source it
produces is portable. In order to ensure portability, however,
you must either provide a function `yywrap' or, if you don't use
it (e.g., your scanner has no `#include'-like feature), simply
include a `%noyywrap' statement in the scanner's source.''
This AC_PROG_LEX behaviour is causing some spurious failures of
the Automake testsuite in environments which lack a proper library
providing `yywrap' (this happens for example on Fedora-based
systems). The proper workaround is to simply provide a fall-back
implementation of `yywrap' in our lexers.
See also partially-overlapping commit `v1.11-871-geb147a1' (from
the 'testsuite-work' branch), which was motivated by similar
spurious failures experienced when cross-compiling.

v1.11-464-gc9dfc36, `java_JAVA' is not a valid prefix/primary

aclocal: more granularity in acdir overriding
Before this change, using the `--acdir' option caused aclocal to
redefine both the directory of automake-provided m4 macros and the
directory of third-party system-wide m4 macros. With this change,
we deprecate the `--acdir' aclocal option, and introduce two new
options `--automake-acdir' and `--system-acdir', to allow for more
granularity.
* aclocal.in (@automake_includes, @system_includes,
@user_includes): Fix and extend comments.
(usage): Update.
(handle_acdir_option): New function.
(parse_arguments): Recognize new options `--system-acdir' and
`automake-acdir', and handle `--acdir' using the new function
above. Simplify logic by assuming that the directory of
third-party system-wide m4 files always exists.
* tests/aclocal.in: Update to use the new options, instead of
the deprecated. `--acdir'.
* m4/dirlist: Move ...
* m4/acdir/dirlist: ... here.

(system_acdir): New, directory.
(dist_system_ac_DATA): New, defined to an empty value; this will

"make install".
