Most of what these scripts have done in the past has been systematized
and folded into the make dist target in the mean time, and AFAICT, we
could integrate the documentation preparation as well, now that it
works automatically in a reliable fashion. That would reduce the
answer to the original question to something like
./configure
make dist[check]
If we can do that, that makes it even better. But is it something we can
reasonably backpatch? Otherwise we still need both documentation and
scripts to deal with back branches.
Marc, how's this coming? We still need this documented somewhere, if
it's not being put into CVS. And documenting what it is could be a good
starting point for somebody else to put it into the Makefile, if you
don't have the time to work on that part yourself.
But not having it documented *or* in the Makefile just sucks...
