+ Fix bug in rules for creating vala vapi/header files.
+ * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Add forgotten "fi" in an
+ if control structure in a generated make rules. Bug introduced
+ by previous commit `v1.11-221-gd7c1679', and revealed by failure
+ of test `vala2.test'.

+
+ Fix and document rules to not touch the tree with `make -n'.
+ * doc/automake.texi (Multiple Outputs): Document the problem of
+ modifications during dry-run execution, propose solution.
+ * NEWS: Update.
+ * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Split recipe so the
+ stamp file is not removed with GNU `make -n'.
+ (lang_yacc_target_hook): Separate removal of parser output file
+ and header remaking.
+ * lib/am/lisp.am ($(am__ELCFILES)): Determine whether -n was
+ passed to make, take care not to remove any files in that case.
+ * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Separate removal of
+ %STAMP% file from induced remaking of config header.
+ * tests/autohdrdry.test, tests/lispdry.test, tests/yaccdry.test:
+ New tests.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

+
+ Fix potential bug in generated tests `instpc-*.test'.
+ This bug is due to the changes introduced by the recently-merged
+ "tests-init" branch. In that branch, `tests/defs' didn't define
+ anymore `$srcdir', instead defininig directly `$testsrcdir'; but
+ the generated tests were using `$srcdir', hence the bug.
+ Luckily, since the Automake parallel test driver automatically
+ exports `srcdir' to a proper value, that prevented the bug from
+ manifesting itself.
+ * tests/Makefile.am ($(instspc_tests)): In the generated test
+ scripts, use `$testsrcdir', not `$srcdir'.

+
+ Overhauled and modularized tests in `instspc.test'.
+ The test `instspc.test' was way too big and fragile. Its running
+ time was very long. It also produced a log that was nearly
+ unreadable due to its length, making it very difficult to find
+ out the reason for failures.
+ Also, it was too much monolithic, with a single (maybe spurious)
+ failure in a corner case causing the whole test to fail (even if
+ everything worked as expected in the other 99% of cases).
+ The present change should solve these problems, by separating
+ `instspc.test' into many smaller, self-contained, auto-generated
+ tests.
+ * tests/instspc.test: Removed.
+ * tests/instspc-tests.sh: New script, fulfilling a double role:
+ 1. it generates a Makefile.am snippet `tests/instspc-tests.am',
+ containing the definition of a list of new tests which will take
+ over the older `instspc.test', and
+ 2. it is sourced by said generated tests with proper parameters
+ pre-set, to run the "meat" of the checks.
+ This apparent abuse is indeed required because the test generation
+ code and test execution code are inevitably intertwined.
+ * tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/instspc-tests.am): Include this
+ snippet, which (among the other things) defines ...
+ (instspc_tests): ... this new macro, containing the list of the
+ newly generated `instspc*.test' tests, and ...
+ (instspc_xfail_tests): ... this new macro, containing the list
+ of the `instspc*.test' tests expected to fail.
+ ($(instspc_tests)): New rule, generates the `instspc*.test' tests.
+ ($(instspc_tests:.test=.log)): New rule, registers the dependency
+ of all `instspc*.test' tests on the `instspc-tests.sh' script.
+ (TESTS): Add `$(instspc_tests)', remove `instspc.test'.
+ (XFAIL_TESTS): Add `$(xfail_instspc_tests)'.
+ (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute instspc-tests.sh.
+ (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Added $(instspc_tests).
+ Other minor cosmetic changes.
+ * bootstrap: Generate instspc-tests.am.
+ * tests/.gitignore: Updated.
