Update to 2.69: * Noteworthy changes in release 2.69 (2012-04-24) [stable] ** Autoconf now requires perl 5.6 or better (but generated configure scripts continue to run without perl). * Noteworthy changes in release 2.68b (2012-03-01) [beta] Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.68.*. ** Autoconf-generated configure scripts now unconditionally re-execute themselves with $CONFIG_SHELL, if that's set in the environment. ** The texinfo documentation no longer specifies "front-cover" or "back-cover" texts, so that it may now be included in Debian's "main" section. ** Support for the Go programming language has been added. The new macro AC_LANG_GO sets variables GOC and GOFLAGS. ** AS_LITERAL_IF again treats '=' as a literal. Regression introduced in 2.66. ** The macro AS_EXECUTABLE_P, present since 2.50, is now documented. ** Macros - AC_PROG_LN_S and AS_LN_S now fall back on 'cp -pR' (not 'cp -p') if 'ln -s' does not work. This works better for symlinks to directories. - New macro AC_HEADER_CHECK_STDBOOL. - New and updated macros for Fortran support: AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS to enable array bounds checking AC_F77_IMPLICIT_NONE and AC_FC_IMPLICIT_NONE to disable implicit integer AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION to compute the Fortran 90 module name extension AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module search path flag AC_FC_MODULE_OUTPUT_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module output directory flag AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT for preprocessed Fortran source files extensions AC_FC_PP_DEFINE for the Fortran preprocessor define flag

Update to 2.59: * Major changes in Autoconf 2.59 -*- outline -*- Released 2003-11-04, by Akim Demaille ** ac_abs_builddir etc. Absolute paths were actually relative in 2.58. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.58 Released 2003-11-04, by Akim Demaille ** core.* core.* files are no longer removed, as they may be valid user files. ** autoreconf and auxiliary directory Autoreconf creates the auxiliary directory if needed. This is especially useful for initial "bootstrapping" of fresh CVS checkouts. ** AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR Use this macro to declare the directory for local m4 macros for aclocal. ** AC_LIBOBJS No longer includes twice the same file in LIBOBJS if invoked multiple times. ** AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS The directory for its first argument is automatically created. For instance, with AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([src/modules.hh], [...]) $top_builddir/src/ is created if needed. ** Autotest and local.at The optional file local.at is always included in Autotest test suites. ** Warnings The warnings are always issued, including with cached runs. This became a significant problem since aclocal and automake can run autoconf behind the scene. ** autoheader warnings The warnings of autoheader can be turned off, using --warning. For instance, -Wno-obsolete disables the complaints about acconfig.h and other deprecated constructs. ** New macros AC_C_RESTRICT, AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT, AC_LANG_ASSERT, AC_LANG_WERROR, AS_SET_CATFILE. ** AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST Works again. ** AC_FUNC_MKTIME Now checks that mktime is the inverse of localtime. ** Improve DJGPP portability The Autoconf tools and configure behave better under DJGPP. ** Present But Cannot Be Compiled New FAQ section dedicated to the mystic configure: WARNING: pi.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: pi.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: pi.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result messages. ** Concurrent executions of autom4te autom4te now locks its internal files, which enables concurrent executions of autom4te, likely to happen if automake, autoconf, autoheader etc. are run simultaneously. ** Libtool Use of Libtool 1.5 and higher is encouraged. Compatibility with Libtool pre-1.4 is not checked. ** Autotest Testsuites no longer rerun failed tests in verbose mode; instead, failures are logged while the test is run. In addition, expected failures can be marked as such.

Update to 2.60: * Major changes in Autoconf 2.60 Released 2006-06-23, by Ralf Wildenhues. ** Autoconf no longer depends on whether m4wrap is FIFO (as Posix requires) or LIFO (as in GNU M4 1.4.x). GNU M4 2.0 is expected to conform to Posix here, so m4wrap/m4_wrap users should no longer depend on LIFO behavior. ** Provide a way to turn off warnings about the changed directory variables. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.59d Released 2006-06-05, by Ralf Wildenhues. ** GNU make now recommended for VPATH builds INSTALL now suggests VPATH builds (e.g., "sh ../srcdir/configure") only if you use GNU make. In practice, other 'make' implementations have too many subtle incompatibilities in their support for VPATH. Many packages (including Autoconf itself) are portable to other 'make' implementations, but some packages are not, and recommending GNU make keeps the installation instructions simpler. ** Even more safety checks for the new Directory variables: Warn about suspicious `${datarootdir}' found in config files output. ** AC_TRY_COMMAND, AC_TRY_EVAL, ac_config_guess, ac_config_sub, ac_configure These never-documented macros and variables have been marked with comments saying that they may be removed in a future release, because their use can lead to unintended code being executed. If you need functionality that only these macros or variables currently supply, please write bug-autoconf@gnu.org. ** AC_SUBST, AC_DEFINE Literal arguments to these are passed to m4_pattern_allow now. ** AC_PROG_CC_STDC Passing 'ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc=no' to 'configure' now sets ac_cv_prog_cc_c99 and ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 to 'no' as well, for backward compatibility with obsolete K&R tests in the Automake test suite. ** AC_PROG_CXX_C_O New macro. ** AC_PROG_MKDIR_P New macro. ** AS_MKDIR_P Now more robust with special characters in file names, or when multiple processes create the same directory at the same time. ** Obsolescent macros The documentation now says that the following macros are obsolescent: they test for problems that are so old that they are no longer of practical importance on current systems. AC_C_BACKSLASH_A AC_FUNC_MEMCMP AC_HEADER_DIRENT AC_C_CONST AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES AC_HEADER_STAT AC_C_PROTOTYPES AC_FUNC_SETPGRP AC_HEADER_STDC AC_C_STRINGIZE AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT AC_C_VOLATILE AC_FUNC_STAT AC_HEADER_TIME AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID AC_FUNC_STRFTIME AC_ISC_POSIX AC_FUNC_GETPGRP AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL AC_FUNC_LSTAT AC_FUNC_VPRINTF AC_STRUCT_TM New programs need not use these macros. We have no current plans to remove them. ** autoreconf For compatibility with future Libtool 2.0, autoreconf will invoke libtoolize with the option `--ltdl' now, if LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR is used. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.59c Released 2006-04-12, by Ralf Wildenhues. ** The configure command now redirects standard input from /dev/null, to help avoid problems with subsidiary commands that might mistakenly read standard input. AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD points to the original standard input before this redirection, if you really want configure to read from standard input. ** Directory variables adjusted to recent changes in the GNU Coding Standards. The following directory variables are new: datarootdir read-only architecture-independent data root [PREFIX/share] localedir locale-specific message catalogs [DATAROOTDIR/locale] docdir documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/PACKAGE] htmldir html documentation [DOCDIR] dvidir dvi documentation [DOCDIR] pdfdir pdf documentation [DOCDIR] psdir ps documentation [DOCDIR] The following variables have new default values: datadir read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR] infodir info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info] mandir man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man] This means that if you use any of `@datadir@', `@infodir@', or `@mandir@' in a file, you will have to ensure `${datarootdir}' is defined in this file. As a temporary measure, if any of those are found but no mention of `datarootdir', the substitutions will be replaced with values that do not contain `${datarootdir}', and a warning will be issued. ** @top_builddir@ is now a dir name: it is always nonempty and doesn't have a trailing slash. Similar change will be made to ac_top_builddir in a future release; the old style value, which matches (../)*, is (and will continue to be) available as ac_top_build_prefix. ** AC_C_TYPEOF New macro to check for support of 'typeof' syntax a la GNU C. ** AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE New "once-only" variants of commonly-used macros, to make 'configure' smaller and faster in common cases. ** AC_FUNC_STRTOLD New macro to check for strtold with C99 semantics. ** AC_HEADER_ASSERT New macro that lets builder disable assertions at 'configure'-time. ** AC_PATH_X Now checks for X11/Xlib.h and XrmInitialize (X proper) rather than X11/Intrinsic.h and XtMalloc (Xt). ** AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER New macro that causes `configure' to display help strings for AC_ARG_ENABLE and AC_ARG_WITH arguments in one region, in the order defined. The default behavior is to group options of each classes separately. ** AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX No longer automatically arrange to declare the 'exit' function of C, when a C++ compiler is used. Standard Autoconf macros no longer use 'exit', so this is no longer an issue for them. If you use C++, and want to call 'exit', you'll have to arrange for its declaration yourself. But we now suggest you return from 'main' instead. ** AC_PROG_CC_C89, AC_PROG_CC_C99 New macros for ISO C99 support. AC_PROG_CC_C89 and AC_PROG_CC_C99 check for ANSI C89 and ISO C99 support respectively. ** AC_PROG_CC_STDC Has been unobsoleted, and will check if the compiler supports ISO C99, falling back to ANSI C89 if not. ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc is retained for backwards compatibility, assuming the value of ac_cv_prog_cc_c99 or ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 (whichever is valid, in that order). ** AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO, AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE New macros for checking commonly-used members of struct dirent. ** AC_SUBST The substituted value can now contain newlines. ** AC_SUBST_FILE The substitution now occurs only when @variable@ is on a line by itself, optionally surrounded by spaces and tabs. The whole line is replaced. ** AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE, AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER New macros to check for long double, and whether it is wider than double. The old macro AC_C_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE has been marked as obsolete; applications should switch to the new macro. ** AC_TYPE_INT8_T, AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T, AC_TYPE_INT64_T, AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_INTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT, AC_TYPE_SSIZE_T, AC_TYPE_UINT8_T, AC_TYPE_UINT16_T, AC_TYPE_UINT32_T, AC_TYPE_UINT64_T, AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_UINTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT New macros to check for C99 and POSIX types. ** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS New macro to enable extensions to Posix. ** AH_HEADER New macro which is defined to the name of the first declared config header or undefined if no config headers have been declared yet. ** AS_HELP_STRING The macro correctly handles quadrigraphs now. ** AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE, AS_SHELL_SANITIZE, AS_CASE These macros are new or published now. ** AT_COPYRIGHT New macro for copyright notices in testsuite files. ** ALLOCA, LIBOBJS, LTLIBOBJS Object names added to these variables are now prefixed with `${LIBOBJDIR}', as in `${LIBOBJDIR}alloca.o'. LIBOBJDIR is meant to be defined from `Makefile.in' in case the object files lie in a different directory. The LIBOBJDIR feature is experimental. ** autoreconf Supports --no-recursive now. ** New macros to support Erlang/OTP. New macros for configuring paths to Erlang tools and libraries: AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL, AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERL, AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ROOT_DIR, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR. New macros for configuring installation of Erlang libraries: AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_SUBDIR. ** The manual now mentions Gnulib more prominently. ** New macros to support Objective C. AC_PROG_OBJC, AC_PROG_OBJCPP. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.59b Released 2004-08-20, by Paul Eggert. ** AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF New macro that computes the default alignment of a type. ** AC_CHECK_TOOL, AC_PATH_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TOOLS When cross-compiling, these macros will give a warning if the tool is not prefixed. In the future, unprefixed cross tools will not be detected; please consult the info documentation for information about the reason of this change. ** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL, AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS New macros that detect programs whose name is prefixed with the target type, if the build type and target type are different. ** AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE New trace macro that declares expected auxiliary files. ** AC_PROG_GREP New macro that tests for a grep program that accepts as a long a line as possible. ** AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP These macros now require AC_PROG_GREP, and try EGREP="$GREP -E" and FGREP="$GREP -F" respectively if possible, or else run a path search for a program that accepts as long a line as possible. ** AC_PROG_SED New macro that tests for a sed program that truncates as few characters as possible.

Update to 2.56. Set MAINTAINER to me. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.56 -*- outline -*- Released November 15th, 2002. One packaging problem fixed (config/install-sh was not executable). * Major changes in Autoconf 2.55 Released November 14th, 2002. Release tips: Have your configure.ac checked by autoscan ("autoscan"). Try the warning options ("autoreconf -fv -Wall"). ** Documentation - AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS More information on proper use. - Writing Test Programs This sections explains how to write good test sources to use with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE etc. It documents AC_LANG_PROGRAMS and so forth. - AC_FOO_IFELSE vs. AC_TRY_FOO Explains why Autoconf moves from AC_TRY_COMPILE etc. to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM etc. ** autoreconf - Is more robust to different Gettext installations. - Produces messages (when --verbose) to be understood by Emacs' compile mode. - Supports -W/--warnings. - -m/--make Once the GNU Build System reinstalled, run `./config.status --recheck && ./config.status && make' if possible. ** autom4te - Supports --cache, and --no-cache. - ~/.autom4te.cfg makes it possible to disable the caching mechanism (autom4te.cache). See `Customizing autom4te' in the documentation. ** config.status Supports --quiet. ** Obsolete options Support for the obsoleted options -m, --macrodir, -l, --localdir is dropped in favor of the safer --include/--prepend-include scheme. ** Macros - New macros AC_COMPILER_IFELSE, AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC, AC_HEADER_STDBOOL, AC_LANG_CONFTEST, AC_LANG_SOURCE, AC_LANG_PROGRAM, AC_LANG_CALL, AC_LANG_FUNC_TRY_LINK, AC_MSG_FAILURE, AC_PREPROC_IFELSE. - Obsoleted Obsoleted macros are kept for Autoconf backward compatibility, but should be avoided in configure.ac. Running autoupdate is advised. AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST. - AC_DEFINE/AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED We have to stop using the old compatibility scheme --that tried to avoid useless backslashes-- because Libtool 1.4.3 contains a AC_DEFINE([error_t], [int], [Define to a type to use for \`error_t' if it is not otherwise available.]) We have to quote the single quotes and backslashes with \. The old compatibility scheme saw that ` was backslashed, and therefore did not quote the single quote... Failure. Hence, Autoconf 2.54 is not compatible with Libtool. Autoconf 2.55 is, but in some cases might produce more \ than wanted. Please, note that in the future the same problem will happen with AC_MSG_*: use `autoreconf -f -Wall'. ** Bug Fixes - Portability of the Autoconf package to Solaris. - Spurious warnings caused by config.status. This bug is benign, but painful: on some systems (typically FreeBSD), warnings such as: config.status: creating Makefile mv: Makefile: set owner/group (was: 1357/0): Operation not permitted could be issued. This is fixed. - Parallel Builds Simultaneous executions of config.status are possible again. - Precious variables accumulation config.status could stack several copies of the precious variables assignments. ** Plans for 2.57 - ./configure <host> The compatibility hooks with the old scheme will be completely removed. Please, advice/use `--build', `--host', and `--target' only. - AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS The tests will be stricter, please make sure your invocations are valid. - shell functions Shell functions will gradually be introduced, probably starting with Autotest. If you know machines which are in use that you suspect *not* to support shell functions, please run the test suite of Autoconf 2.55 on it, and report the results to bug-autoconf@gnu.org. - AC_MSG_* Special characters in AC_MSG_* need not be quoted. Currently, Autoconf has heuristics to decide when a string is escaped, or has to be escaped. This scheme is fragile, and will be removed; the only risk is uglified messages. Please, run `autoreconf -f -Wall' to find occurrences that will be affected.

In the future, unprefixed cross tools will not be detected; please consult the info documentation for information about the reason of this change. ** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL, AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS New macros that detect programs whose name is prefixed with the target type, if the build type and target type are different. ** AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE New trace macro that declares expected auxiliary files. ** AC_PROG_GREP New macro that tests for a grep program that accepts as a long a line as possible. ** AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP These macros now require AC_PROG_GREP, and try EGREP="$GREP -E" and FGREP="$GREP -F" respectively if possible, or else run a path search for a program that accepts as long a line as possible. ** AC_PROG_SED New macro that tests for a sed program that truncates as few characters as possible.

Update to 2.69: * Noteworthy changes in release 2.69 (2012-04-24) [stable] ** Autoconf now requires perl 5.6 or better (but generated configure scripts continue to run without perl). * Noteworthy changes in release 2.68b (2012-03-01) [beta] Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.68.*. ** Autoconf-generated configure scripts now unconditionally re-execute themselves with $CONFIG_SHELL, if that's set in the environment. ** The texinfo documentation no longer specifies "front-cover" or "back-cover" texts, so that it may now be included in Debian's "main" section. ** Support for the Go programming language has been added. The new macro AC_LANG_GO sets variables GOC and GOFLAGS. ** AS_LITERAL_IF again treats '=' as a literal. Regression introduced in 2.66. ** The macro AS_EXECUTABLE_P, present since 2.50, is now documented. ** Macros - AC_PROG_LN_S and AS_LN_S now fall back on 'cp -pR' (not 'cp -p') if 'ln -s' does not work. This works better for symlinks to directories. - New macro AC_HEADER_CHECK_STDBOOL. - New and updated macros for Fortran support: AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS to enable array bounds checking AC_F77_IMPLICIT_NONE and AC_FC_IMPLICIT_NONE to disable implicit integer AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION to compute the Fortran 90 module name extension AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module search path flag AC_FC_MODULE_OUTPUT_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module output directory flag AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT for preprocessed Fortran source files extensions AC_FC_PP_DEFINE for the Fortran preprocessor define flag

Update to 2.56. Set MAINTAINER to me. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.56 -*- outline -*- Released November 15th, 2002. One packaging problem fixed (config/install-sh was not executable). * Major changes in Autoconf 2.55 Released November 14th, 2002. Release tips: Have your configure.ac checked by autoscan ("autoscan"). Try the warning options ("autoreconf -fv -Wall"). ** Documentation - AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS More information on proper use. - Writing Test Programs This sections explains how to write good test sources to use with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE etc. It documents AC_LANG_PROGRAMS and so forth. - AC_FOO_IFELSE vs. AC_TRY_FOO Explains why Autoconf moves from AC_TRY_COMPILE etc. to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM etc. ** autoreconf - Is more robust to different Gettext installations. - Produces messages (when --verbose) to be understood by Emacs' compile mode. - Supports -W/--warnings. - -m/--make Once the GNU Build System reinstalled, run `./config.status --recheck && ./config.status && make' if possible. ** autom4te - Supports --cache, and --no-cache. - ~/.autom4te.cfg makes it possible to disable the caching mechanism (autom4te.cache). See `Customizing autom4te' in the documentation. ** config.status Supports --quiet. ** Obsolete options Support for the obsoleted options -m, --macrodir, -l, --localdir is dropped in favor of the safer --include/--prepend-include scheme. ** Macros - New macros AC_COMPILER_IFELSE, AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC, AC_HEADER_STDBOOL, AC_LANG_CONFTEST, AC_LANG_SOURCE, AC_LANG_PROGRAM, AC_LANG_CALL, AC_LANG_FUNC_TRY_LINK, AC_MSG_FAILURE, AC_PREPROC_IFELSE. - Obsoleted Obsoleted macros are kept for Autoconf backward compatibility, but should be avoided in configure.ac. Running autoupdate is advised. AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST. - AC_DEFINE/AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED We have to stop using the old compatibility scheme --that tried to avoid useless backslashes-- because Libtool 1.4.3 contains a AC_DEFINE([error_t], [int], [Define to a type to use for \`error_t' if it is not otherwise available.]) We have to quote the single quotes and backslashes with \. The old compatibility scheme saw that ` was backslashed, and therefore did not quote the single quote... Failure. Hence, Autoconf 2.54 is not compatible with Libtool. Autoconf 2.55 is, but in some cases might produce more \ than wanted. Please, note that in the future the same problem will happen with AC_MSG_*: use `autoreconf -f -Wall'. ** Bug Fixes - Portability of the Autoconf package to Solaris. - Spurious warnings caused by config.status. This bug is benign, but painful: on some systems (typically FreeBSD), warnings such as: config.status: creating Makefile mv: Makefile: set owner/group (was: 1357/0): Operation not permitted could be issued. This is fixed. - Parallel Builds Simultaneous executions of config.status are possible again. - Precious variables accumulation config.status could stack several copies of the precious variables assignments. ** Plans for 2.57 - ./configure <host> The compatibility hooks with the old scheme will be completely removed. Please, advice/use `--build', `--host', and `--target' only. - AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS The tests will be stricter, please make sure your invocations are valid. - shell functions Shell functions will gradually be introduced, probably starting with Autotest. If you know machines which are in use that you suspect *not* to support shell functions, please run the test suite of Autoconf 2.55 on it, and report the results to bug-autoconf@gnu.org. - AC_MSG_* Special characters in AC_MSG_* need not be quoted. Currently, Autoconf has heuristics to decide when a string is escaped, or has to be escaped. This scheme is fragile, and will be removed; the only risk is uglified messages. Please, run `autoreconf -f -Wall' to find occurrences that will be affected.

Update to 2.63: GNU Autoconf NEWS - User visible changes. * Major changes in Autoconf 2.63 (2008-09-09) [stable] Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.62.*. ** AC_C_BIGENDIAN does not mistakenly report "universal" for some bigendian hosts, a regression introduced with universal binary support in 2.62. ** AC_PATH_X now includes /lib64 and /usr/lib64 in its list of default library directories. ** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS no longer conflicts with an external AC_DEFINE([__EXTENSIONS__]). This fixes a regression introduced in 2.62 when using macros such as AC_AIX that were made obsolete in favor of the more portable AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS. ** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS is usable in the non-cross-compile case. ** Newly obsolete macros The following macro has been marked obsolete, since current porting targets can safely assume C89 semantics that signal handlers return void. We have no current plans to remove the macro. AC_TYPE_SIGNAL ** The macros m4_map and m4_map_sep now ignore any list elements consisting of just empty quotes, and m4_map_sep now expands its separator. This fixes a regression in 2.62 when these macros were first documented, for the sake of clients expecting the semantics that these macros had prior to that time. The new macros m4_mapall and m4_mapall_sep, along with extra quoting of the separator, can be used to get the semantics that m4_map_sep had in 2.62. ** Clients of m4_expand, such as AS_HELP_STRING and AT_SETUP, can now handle properly quoted but otherwise unbalanced parentheses (for some macros, this fixes a regression in 2.62). ** Two new quadrigraphs have been introduced: @{:@ for (, and @:}@ for ), allowing the output of unbalanced parentheses in more contexts. ** The following m4sugar macros are new: m4_joinall m4_mapall m4_mapall_sep m4_reverse m4_set_add m4_set_add_all m4_set_contains m4_set_contents m4_set_delete m4_set_difference m4_set_dump m4_set_empty m4_set_foreach m4_set_intersection m4_set_list m4_set_listc m4_set_remove m4_set_size m4_set_union ** The following m4sugar macros now accept multiple arguments, as is the case with underlying m4: m4_defn m4_popdef m4_undefine ** The following m4sugar macros now guarantee linear scaling; they previously had linear scaling with m4 1.6 but quadratic scaling when using m4 1.4.x. All macros built on top of these also gain the scaling improvements. m4_bmatch m4_bpatsubsts m4_case m4_cond m4_do m4_dquote_elt m4_foreach m4_join m4_list_cmp m4_map m4_map_sep m4_max m4_min m4_shiftn ** AT_KEYWORDS once again performs expansion on its argument, such that AT_KEYWORDS([m4_if([$1], [], [default])]) no longer complains about the possibly unexpanded m4_if [regression introduced in 2.62]. ** Config header templates `#undef UNDEFINED /* comment */' do not lead to nested comments any more; regression introduced in 2.62.
