I've just made the latest CVS versions of automake and autoconf work
together to generate configure et. al. for the fileutils. Here's one
of the changes I had to make: (I'm still trying to find a good fix for
a depcomp-related problem)
* m4/header.m4 (AM_CONFIG_HEADER): Fix typo in last change:
add missing closing bracket and closing parenthesis.
Don't quote the first argument to AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS.
Backslash-escape the backquotes and `$' in `am_indx'-incrementing stmt.
I'll do some more testing, then (barring any problems)
check this in tomorrow.
