+       ar-lib: fix configure output for "unrecognized archiver interface"
+       * m4/ar-lib.m4: Ensure that, even when an error is hit while trying
+       to determine the archiver interface kind, the "checking archiver
+       interface" message from configure is properly terminated before
+       an error message is printed, to avoid slightly garbled output.
+       * tests/ar4.test: Enhance.
+       * tests/ar5.test: Likewise.

 +
 +      tests: more faithful 'installcheck' support in few tests
 +      * tests/ar-lib5a.test: Use the `$am_scriptdir' variable instead
 +      of "$testsrcdir/../lib" or "$top_testsrcdir/lib", to test more
 +      faithfully under "make installcheck".
 +      * tests/ar-lib5a.test: Likewise.

 +      * tests/libobj19.test: Likewise.

 +      tests: remove redundant settings of `errexit' shell flag
 +      * tests/aclocal-path-install-serial.test: Do not set the
 +      `errexit' shell flag, as it is already set by `tests/defs'.

 +
 +      generated tests: avoid extra "FIXME" comments
 +      * tests/gen-testsuite-part: Avoid putting too much "FIXME"
 +      comments in the generated test scripts, since they end up
 +      being just counter-productive noise when one has to grep
 +      the test scripts looking for real "FIXME" items.

 +      * tests/prove-runner: Remove erroneously-repeated word.
 +      * THANKS: Update.
