+       * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
+       can install only one file at a time.
+       (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
+       (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
+       (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
+       cause weird behavior with the other changes below.  All later uses
+       of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
+       Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
+       octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
+       likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
+       octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
+       'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
+       <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
+       (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
+       temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
+       (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
+       intermediate directories; this is safer.
+       (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
+       /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
+       HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
+       Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
+       traditional implementations.

        * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
        * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
        Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
+       This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
+       loses the race in creating the last path component against another
+       process.
        * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
