      user; still, the old Makefile.am files that used to define it should
      still continue to work as before.
  
+   - When using DejaGnu-based testsuites, the user can extend the `site.exp'
+     file generated by automake-provided rules by defining the special make
+     variable `$(EXTRA_DEJAGNU_SITE_CONFIG)'.
+ 
+   - The `install-info' rule can now be instructed not to create/update
+     the `${infodir}/dir' file, by exporting the new environment variable
+     `AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR' to the value "no".
+ 
 +* Changes to Yacc support:
 +
 +  - C source and header files derived from non-distributed Yacc and/or
 +    Lex sources are now removed by a simple "make clean" (while they were
 +    previously removed only "make maintainer-clean").
 +
 +  - Slightly backward-incompatible change, relevant only for use of Yacc
 +    with C++: the extensions of the header files produced by the Yacc
 +    rules are now modelled after extension of the sources corresponding
 +    sources.  For example, yacc files named "foo.y++" and "bar.yy" will
 +    produce header files named respectively "foo.h++" and "bar.hh", where
 +    they would have previously produced header files named simply "foo.h"
 +    and "bar.h".  This change offers better compatibility with `bison -o'.

      processes, honour the configure-time definitions of AUTOCONF and
      AUTOM4TE.
  
+   - The `install-info' recipe does not try anymore to guess whether the
+     `install-info' program is from Debian or from GNU, and adaptively
+     change its behaviour; this has proven to be frail and easy to regress.
