mdate-sh: support $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.
From https://bugs.gnu.org/77805.
* lib/mdate-sh: if $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, use it
instead of the mtime of any file. Debian was removing
@value{UPDATED}, etc., from manuals because of varying output.
Try date --date, then date -r, then perl gmtime, then
fall back to the file's mtime.
Also, warn if more than one file argument is given.
(mon_to_month): factor out conversion of Jan to January.

automake: algol68: rename A68 to A68C and AM_PROG_A68 to AM_PROG_A68C.
From https://bugs.gnu.org/78033 (automake-patches).
While upstreaming the Algol 68 autoconf support it was pointed
out that the shell variable A68 should be renamed to A68C and
that the macro AC_PROG_A68 should be renamed to AC_PROG_A68C.
This is to be more consistent to the support for other languages
like Go. This patch updates the Automake side.
The Algol 68 code snippets are also updated to use modern
stropping, which is the stropping regime now used by default by ga68.
* bin/automake.in (a68): change config_vars, libtool_tags et al.
* lib/Automake/Variable.pm: likewise rename.
* doc/automake.texi: likewise rename.

automake: recognize all-numeric MAJ.MIN.MICROa.ALPHA versions better.
* HACKING: more doc on version numbers.

to retain odd numbers for development and even numbers for pretests.

test: explanation of MTIME_RESOLUTION resetting.
* t/ax/test-defs.in (MTIME_RESOLUTION): separate the case
where am_cv_filesystem_timestamp_resolution is not set for
more explanations, but still reset MTIME_RESOLUTION to 1
even if it is already set. Which it should be when running
tests, because config.status is sourced. But it's too late in
the release process to change this now; after the release,
can try keeping a non-empty MTIME_RESOLUTION.

Paul Eggert fixed that on June 7,

Most of these spelling fixes are just to comments and documentation.
However, some affect tests as follows:
* t/cond36.sh (tparse.h): Fix misspelling of dependency.
* t/disthook.sh: Fix misspelling of file.
* t/help3.sh: Fix misspelling of long option.
* t/instdir-ltlib.sh: Fix misspellings of macro names.
This causes the test to fail, so someone with libtool
