tests: prefer including 'test-init.sh' rather than './defs'
This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8,
"tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh"
* All tests: To run the common setup, use the command:
. test-init.sh
instead of the older, "historical" one:
. ./defs || exit 1
Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit'
shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all
the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite
do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found
(at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only
mode that concerns us in the testsuite).
* t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
* gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh
We don't do this in a sweeping passage, because that would cause
endless headaches in the synchronization between the maint, master
and ng/master branches. Instead, we setup our framework to allow
test scripts to work by sourcing either './defs' or 'test-init.sh',
so that we'll be able to make the transition gradual and painless.
* t/ax/test-init.sh: New, copied from the previous ./defs file.
* defs: Simply work by sourcing the new file.
* Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): List the new file.
* t/README: Adjust to mandate the sourcing of 'test-init.sh' rather
than of './defs'.
* t/c-demo.sh: Source 'test-init.sh' instead of ./defs. This is
done to verify our new setup actually works.

compat: reinstate AM_PROG_MKDIR_P, for gettext
Do not remove AM_PROG_MKDIR_P just yet.
gettext (latest from git) still AC_REQUIRE's AM_PROG_MKDIR_P via its
intl.m4 and po.m4 files, which are pulled into *many* projects.
When I try to build one of those projects (coreutils) using the latest
from automake.git/master, I see this failure:
$ aclocal -I m4
configure.ac:477: warning: AM_PROG_MKDIR_P is m4_require'd \
but not m4_defun'd
m4/po.m4:23: AM_PO_SUBDIRS is expanded from...
m4/gettext.m4:57: AM_GNU_GETTEXT is expanded from...
configure.ac:477: the top level
That is because AM_PROG_MKDIR_P was removed (via commit
v1.12-20-g8a1c64f) in preparation for the next release of automake.
* NEWS: Remove the paragraph that announced the removal of
AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.

tests: ensure generation of wrapper tests matching multiple conditions
* gen-testsuite-part: Our old code to generate wrapper tests had a
severe limitation, in that if a test matched two or more conditions
calling for generation of wrapper tests, still only one wrapper test
was generated, instead of the three that would have been expected --
that is, one using the setup code triggered by the first condition,
one using the setup code triggered by the second condition, and one
using both this setup code fragments.
Admittedly, this was only a theoretical limitation for the moment,
since since so far no test exists that matches two or more conditions
for wrapping. Still, this might change in the future, and easily in
an unnoticed way, so better fix the issue now, before it might become
a real problem.

compile: support libfoo.a naming when wrapping Microsoft tools
There is a future plan to provide some means to have Automake
create static libraries that are named differently depending
on the system [1].
The background is that everyone has always named static libraries
libfoo.a, except the Redmond crowd who names them foo.lib, and
you have to jump through hoops to have Automake create libraries
named foo.lib in the land of non-GNU Windows while still creating
libfoo.a everywhere else.
However, there is probably no sane way to accomplish that system
dependent naming discussed in [1] without user intervention,
which makes it necessary to support the classic libfoo.a naming
when using Microsoft tools in the best possible way, for the
benefit of all projects today and for future projects not
opting in to whatever scheme is selected for the problem at
hand.
[1] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-09/msg00028.html
* lib/compile (func_cl_dashl): As a last resort, match -lfoo with
libfoo.a, if that file exist on the library search path.
* t/compile4.sh: Remove obsolescent workaround for the above.
* t/compile6.sh: Extend to check that libbaz.a is indeed found
when baz.lib and baz.dll.lib does not exist and that bar.lib
and bar.dll.lib are preferred over libbar.a.

config headers: don't emit rules for headers not generated by autoheader
This change fixed automake bug#12495.
Even if an AC_CONFIG_HEADERS invocation is passed a list of several files
as the first argument, only the first one of those file is considered by
autoheader for automatic generation of the corresponding '.in' template.
This is done on purpose, and is clearly documented in the Autoconf manual,
which (as of the 2.69 version) reads something like this:
The autoheader program searches for the first invocation of
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in configure sources to determine the name of
the template. If the first call of AC_CONFIG_HEADERS specifies
more than one input file name, autoheader uses the first one.
That is, an invocation like:
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h config2.h])
should cause autoheader to generate only a 'config.h.in' template,
and not also a 'config2.h.in' one.
Accordingly, automake, when tracing AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, should generate
remake rules only for the template associated to the first input file
name passed to that macro. In some situations, however, automake failed
to properly limit itself in this way; for example, with an input like:
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h sub/foo.h])
in configure.ac, and with the 'sub' directory listed in the SUBDIRS
variable of the top-level Makefile, automake would erroneously generate
in 'sub/Makefile.in' a rule to remake the 'foo.h.in' template by
invoking autoheader.
This issue was likely introduced in commit 'Release-1-8-23-g262bb92'
of 2004-01-05.
* NEWS: Update.
* doc/automake.texi (Optional): Improve wording in the description of
hat rules automake generates in response to an 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'
invocation.
* lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Only emit autoheader-invoking remake rules for
the %CONFIG_HIN% template if that corresponds to the first argument of
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, as explaned above. Do so using the automake-time
conditional %?FIRST-HDR%, that is properly passed ...
* automake.in (handle_configure): ... from a 'file_contents' invocation
in here.
* t/autohdr-subdir-pr12495.sh: New test.
* t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.

coverage: better exposure for automake bug#12372 (tags-related)
Alas, in contrast with what is said in the commit message of previous
commit 'v1.12.3-14-g94b7b8e', that bug is still present also in the
current maint branch (which will become automake version 1.12.4); it
is just that it only triggers when a _SOURCES variable contains only
files with custom extension.

news: some changes for 1.13 has been "de-planned"
* NEWS (Future backward-incompatibilities): The planned Automake release
1.13 already has too much stuff on its plate; so we are not going to
In Automake 1.13, we are definitely not going to change the exact order
in which the directories in the aclocal macro search path are looked up.
Also, experience and user feedback have shown that the "obsolescent"
two-arguments invocation for AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE:
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(PACKAGE-NAME, PACKAGE-VERSION)
is still useful (until at least Autoconf is fixed to offer better support
for "dynamically" package versions), so we are not going to remove
support for that usage in Automake 1.13. For more details, see commit
v1.12.2-245-g2abe183 of 2012-08-24, "AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: allow obsolescent
two-args invocation once again".

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: allow obsolescent two-args invocation once again
This partially reverts commit 'v1.12-67-ge186355' of 2012-05-25,
"init: obsolete usages of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE not supported anymore"
Some users still need to be able to define the version number for
their package dynamically, at configure runtime.
Their user case is that, for development snapshots, they want to be
able to base the complete version of the package on the VCS revision
ID (mostly Git or Mercurial). They could of course do so by
specifying such version dynamically in their call to AC_INIT, as is
done by several GNU packages. But then they would need to regenerate
and re-run the configure script before each snapshot, which might be
very time-consuming for complex packages, to the point of slowing
down and even somewhat impeding development.
The situation should truly be solved in Autoconf, by allowing a way
to specify the version dynamically in a way that doesn't force the
configure script to be regenerated and re-run every time the package
version changes. But until Autoconf has been improved to allow
this, Automake will have to support the obsolescent two-arguments
invocation for AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, to avoid regressing the suboptimal
but working solution for the use case described above.

<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-08/msg00025.html>
* NEWS: Update.
* m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Support once again invocation with
two or three arguments.

tests: fix a timestamp race in python tests
Fixes automake bug#12210.
* t/python-missing.sh: Call aclocal and autoconf with the "--force"
option. We need this because, on fast machines, it's possible for
'mypy.m4' and 'aclocal.m4' to end up with the same timestamp as configure,
so autoconf (without the "--force" options) wouldn't bother to rebuild it,
and would just rerun the previous AM_PATH_PYTHON test, succeeding rather
than failing as expected.

* t/scripts.sh: This: it used to check that the 'AC_PROG_INSTALL' macro
was not uselessly required, but today that macro is AC_REQUIRE'd by
'AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' anyway, so that the test is no more significant.
* t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.

tests: avoid spurious failures with older Texinfo
* t/distcheck-override-infodir.sh (main.texi): Add explicit calls to
'@dircategory' and '@direntry', to ensure a 'dir' file will be created
also by 'install-info' coming with Texinfo 4.8.

tests: avoid tons of spurious failures on NetBSD
* t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (process_requirements): Set the '$am_tool' variable
to the empty string before trying to unset it; otherwise, we might be
attempting to unset an already-unset variable, which (together with the
presence of the 'errexit' shell flag) causes spurious failures at least
with the /bin/sh shell from NetBSD 5.1. This was actually causing the
great majority of the Automake tests (all those not using a "required=..."
declaration) to fail spuriously on that platform!

runtest: avoid spurious failures on NetBSD
* runtest.in: Use ${1+"$@"} rather than simply "$@", because the 'set -u'
setting used in the script causes the latter to trigger a spurious error
with the NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh ("./runtest: @: parameter not set") if there
are no arguments to the test.

* t/instspc.tap: Here, by isolating the $(DESTDIR) used by runs with
different "problematic strings" to prevent them to unduly interfering

tests: avoid spurious failure of 't/vala-vapi.sh' on OpenIndiana
* t/vala-vapi.sh: Use 'printf', not 'echo', to print strings containing
substrings like '\n', that can be interpreted like escape strings. That
because the /bin/sh and the /bin/bash shell from OpenIndiana actually
interpret them that way:
$ /bin/sh -c 'echo "foo\nbar"'
foo
bar
$ /bin/bash -c 'echo "foo\nbar"'
foo
bar

tests: avoid spurious failure of 't/uninstall-fail.sh' on OpenIndiana
On current OpenIndiana (based on what once was OpenSolaris 11), the shell
/bin/sh (which, differently from what happens on Solaris, is a true POSIX
shell, thus worthy of consideration) somehow manages to "eat" the
error message from 'rm' when that fails to remove a file due to lacking
permission on the parent directory:
$ /bin/sh -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; rm -f foo"
$ echo rc = $?
rc = 1
$ /bin/bash -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; rm -f foo"
rm: foo not removed: Permission denied
$ echo rc = $?
rc = 2
$ /bin/sh -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; env rm -f foo"
rm: foo not removed: Permission denied
$ echo rc = $?
rc = 2
That is probably due to an improper optimization, that is, the shell tries
to be smart and remove the file itself instead of invoking 'rm', but fails
spectacularly in the attempt.
* t/uninstall-fail.sh: The just-described bug was causing a spurious
failure in this test case. Cater to thus situation, by relaxing the
test when a faulty shell is detected. And while at it, fix and improve
an unrelated comment.

tests: reimplement wrappers for automake and aclocal in perl
This will allow us to avoid one extra shell invocation per automake
and aclocal invocation in our testsuite, and, more importantly, will
allow us not to worry about potential shell portability issues, at
least in those wrappers. For an example of such a portability issue,
refer to the recent commit v1.12.2-80-g65dadf6 "tests: work around a
ksh bug w.r.t. ${1+"$@"}".
* t/wrap/automake.in, t/wrap/aclocal.in: Rewritten in perl.

tests: work around a ksh bug w.r.t. ${1+"$@"}
Fixes automake bug#10898. See also the older (much older) thread:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2009-12/msg00036.html>
At least the AT&T and OpenSolaris versions of the Korn shell, as well
as the /bin/sh from OpenIndiana 11, have a strange bug regarding the
expansion of ${1+"$@"}: when exactly *one empty* argument is passed to
a script run by one of this shells, inside that script ${1+"$@"} will
expand to *nothing*, rather than to to the single empty string, as
one would expect (OTOH, $# will correctly expand to 1). This buggy
behaviour was causing a spurious failure in our testsuite (test 6 in
't/automake-cmdline.tap'). Work around it.
* t/wrap/automake.in: Here.
