really required.

semantics (`.java' files are expected *not* to be distributed by

(TESTS): Add the new tests.
Before this change, using the `--acdir' option caused aclocal to
redefine both the directory of automake-provided m4 macros and the
directory of third-party system-wide m4 macros. With this change,
we deprecate the `--acdir' aclocal option, and introduce two new
options `--automake-acdir' and `--system-acdir', to allow for more
granularity.
* aclocal.in (@automake_includes, @system_includes,
@user_includes): Fix and extend comments.
(usage): Update.

(parse_arguments): Recognize new options `--system-acdir' and
`automake-acdir', and handle `--acdir' using the new function
above. Simplify logic by assuming that the directory of
third-party system-wide m4 files always exists.
* tests/aclocal.in: Update to use the new options, instead of
the deprecated. `--acdir'.
* m4/dirlist: Move ...

(dist_system_ac_DATA): New, defined to an empty value; this will
ensure that the $(system_acdir) directory will be created by
"make install".
* tests/aclocal.test: Remove check about the `--print-ac-dir'
option of aclocal, it has been moved into ...
* tests/aclocal-print-acdir.test: ... this new test, and quite
extended.

java: avoid compilation errors when CLASSPATH is empty

CLASSPATH is empty or unset.
* tests/java-empty-classpath.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
parallel-tests: no more spurious successes for FreeBSD make
Work around a bug of FreeBSD make bug that was causing the
automake-generated "check" target to complete with success
even if some tests failed; this happened only when FreeBSD
make was run in concurrent mode (as in, e.g., "make -j2
check"). The bug is not present in NetBSD make.
This change fixes automake bug#9245:

* lib/am/check.am [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] $(TEST_SUITE_LOG): Use a
more "safe" (and apparently redundant) idiom to exit with error,

* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* tests/distcheck-configure-flags-am.test: Avoid using `+=' too
liberally with AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, since the line breaks

* tests/amhello-binpkg.test: Use "$MAKE", not bare "make".
* Makefile.am (sc_perl_local): Also allow perl special variable
`$~' to be localized. And be slightly laxer in the regexp, to
allow for usages like "local $_ = $foo;".
(sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline): Also allow for command
line overriding of the `DISABLE_HARD_ERRORS' make variable. Try
to avoid false positives for usages like "$MAKE || st=$?".
tests: relax a test on amhello examples to cater to Solaris tar
* tests/amhello-binpkg.test: When the tar implementation in use
is not GNU tar, relax the tests on tar output, to avoid spurious
failures. For example, "tar cvf ..." with GNU tar can output
lines like "./usr/bin/hello" on the standard output, while with
Solaris tar it can output lines like "a ./usr/bin/hello 8K" on
standard output, and with Heirloom tar it can output lines like
"a ./usr/bin/hello 15 tape blocks" on standard error.

It turned out that the current work to introduce TAP and SubUnit

require the introduction of slight incompatibilities in the
