332 * autoreconf.sh: Do the right thing when AC_CONFIG_HEADER is
333 given more than one filename. As noted in the "Invoking
334 autoheader" node of the info files, autoheader will use the first
335 file argument given to AC_CONFIG_HEADER. Prior to this patch,
336 autoreconf would end up executing incorrect shell code (e.g.
337 "test ! -f 1.h 2.h.in") in such cases.
338 Patch submitted in parallel to bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu.
340 Fri Oct 3 18:10:39 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>

476 ac_max_here_lines here from AC_OUTPUT_HEADER.
478 * autoheader.sh: Take the multiple-include protection back out.
479 It's not needed for a file that just #defines stuff, and, as Ken
480 Raeburn pointed out in Apr 1994:
481 Since you don't make it optional, and you don't give the writer of
482 configure.in much control over the name of the symbol, it also would
483 prevent one "config.h" file in a subdirectory from including
484 "../config.h" as a way to avoid duplicating some common tests.
486 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_WORKS, AC_PROG_CXX_WORKS): Don't try
487 running a program, just try linking.
488 (AC_C_CROSS): Make the wording clearer.

493 compiler works before checking whether it's a GNU compiler.
494 (AC_FUNC_VFORK): Call _exit after perror.
495 (AC_PATH_XTRA): Go back to using -R, as setting an env var as part
496 of CC doesn't get eval'd correctly to actually work.
497 Directly test whether a space is needed after -R.
498 Don't add "-L" to LDFLAGS if $x_libraries is empty.
499 (AC_FUNC_STRFTIME): Check for it in -lintl only if it's not in the
502 * Test release 2.10.3.

505 Tromey <tromey@creche.cygnus.com>.

511 conftest.subs into multiple files named conftest.s[1-9][0-9]*.
512 Create a pipeline of sed commands that use these files, then delete
513 the temporary files. From John W. Eaton <jwe@bevo.che.wisc.edu>.
515 * acspecific.m4 (AC_AIX, AC_MINIX): Remove warnings about AC_TRY_LINK.
516 These macros don't change the linkage options.
518 * Test release 2.10.2.
520 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX) [GCC]: Use -O2 instead
521 of -O. Suggested by fnf@ninemoons.com (Fred Fish).
523 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Support passing
524 AC_CONFIG_HEADER a value containing shell variables. Suggested by
525 Markku Savela <msa@msa.tte.vtt.fi> and Julian Onions

527 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_RUN_NATIVE, AC_TRY_LINK, AC_TRY_COMPILE,
528 AC_TRY_CPP): Show the test program in config.log if the test fails.
529 From Karl Berry <karl@cs.umb.edu>.
531 * testsuite/config/unix.exp: Run the configure script as "./script"
532 in case the user doesn't have "." in their PATH.
534 Mon Nov 11 18:02:58 1996 David J MacKenzie <djm@catapult.va.pubnix.com>
536 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_COMPILE, AC_TRY_LINK): Deal with smart
537 compilers that know that an unused function doesn't have to be

586 AC_CHECK_HEADERS_DIRENT): Ditto.

604 (AC_ISC_POSIX): Require AC_PROG_CC, since it uses $GCC.
605 From gvran@uddeborg.pp.se.
606 Don't blather about being called before AC_TRY_LINK,

788 grep $name in $infile misses, give error message that there must
