Reported by Nicolas Joly.
* aclang.m4 (AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN): Define _AC_LANG_PROGRAM_C_F77_HOOKS.

The runtime test for AC_FUNC_GETPGRP fails when prototypes are
used. Well, then use the prototypes when you can, and runtime as
a last resort.

From Jens Petersen.

etc. in the log.
2001-07-03 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* acheaders.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADER): When INCLUDES are set, use the
compiler, not the preprocessor.
* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT_REQUIREMENTS): No longer use
dedicated code to check for inttypes.h, as AC_CHECK_HEADERS does
the right thing.
* Makefile.am (.m4.m4f): Emphasize M4 error messages and fail
earlier if there are.
2001-07-03 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* autoscan.in ($initfile): Remove.
(&find_file): Rename as...
(&scan_file): this.

argument to AC_TRY_LINK.
2001-07-01 Steven G. Johnson <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
Add alternate 'main' routine detection for linking C/C++ with Fortran,
fixing link failures for e.g. AC_F77_WRAPPERS on NetBSD.
* aclang.m4 (AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN): New macro to detect whether a
dummy alternate main is required even if the user provides her own
'main'.
(AC_F77_MAIN): New macro to detect whether it is possible to
provide an alternate 'main' function name, using the 'main' from
the Fortran libraries.
(AC_LANG_PROGRAM(C)): Use F77_DUMMY_MAIN, if it is defined, so that
cross-language link tests can be performed successfully.
(_AC_F77_NAME_MANGLING): Require AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN. Also put $FLIBS
after $LIBS, for consistency; this should be the general rule since
the user may want to link to Fortran libraries that require $FLIBS.
* autoconf.texi: Document AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN and AC_F77_MAIN.
2001-06-29 Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>
* atgeneral.m4 (AT_CHECK): Add a newline to the end of

* tests/mktests.sh (update_exclude_list): Add
AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS and AC_FUNC_WAIT3.
* tests/semantics.at: Test AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS and
AC_FUNC_WAIT3 with "-W no-obsolete".
2001-06-25 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/foreign.at (libtool): Fix the `libtoolize --version' decoding.
2001-06-25 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* autoscan.in (%macro): Now maps from word to list of macros.

explicit macros is mapped to the default macro.
