* tests/defs.in (cross_compiling): New subroutine.
(am__tool_prefix): New internal variable.
(gcc, g++, gcj): Force the use of the correct "tool prefix"
when cross compiling.
(gfortran, g77, non-cross): New requirements.
tests: fix portability issues in 'repeated-options.test'
* tests/repeated-options.test: Do not assume that object files
have `.o' suffix and executables have no default suffix; instead,
use `$(OBJEXT)' and `$(EXEEXT)'.
tests: fix spurious failure of extradep.test on FreeBSD
* tests/extradep.test: When using `ls -t' to determine whether a
file has been updated, make sure to use as reference a file whose
timestamp is expected to be *strictly* older that that of the file
being checked. This is required because at least FreeBSD `ls' do
not sort files with the same timestamp in alphabetical order when
using the `-t' option.
* tests/extradep2.test: Likewise.
tests: fix spurious failure of txinfo21.test on FreeBSD
* tests/txinfo21.test: Use the `is_newest' subroutine instead of
the `ls -t' hack to to determine whether a file has been updated.
This is required because at least FreeBSD `ls' do not sort files
with the same timestamp in alphabetical order when using the `-t'
option.
With some edits to `tests/defs' and `ChangeLog', to reflect the
fact that in master we already had a `yacc' requirement, and no
more had an explicitly-recognized `bison' requirement.
tests defs: allow requirements for compilers (mostly dummy)
Most of the new requirements that are now accepted in `$required'
as consequence of this patch are still dummy. They are planned
to be implemented only in master (or in some derived branch), but
having them here (even just as no-op) will allow for an easier
integration/backporting of potential new testcases.
* tests/defs.in (cc, c++, fortran, fortran77): New requirements,
still dummy.
(flex): New requirement, picking LEX for configure.
(lex): New requirement, alias for `flex'. A more appropriate
implementation, looking for a generic `lex' program, will follow
in the future.
(yacc): New requirement, alias for `bison'. A more appropriate
implementation, looking for a generic `yacc' program, will follow
in the future.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Added test scripts man[678].test,
which have been present on the filesystem and in the repository,
but which had erroneously been left out from $(TESTS).
* tests/color2.test: If $MAKE contains command-line arguments (as
in e.g., "make -j2"), expect's directive "spawn $env(MAKE)" fails
spuriously, because it tries to run "$MAKE" as a single command.
Fix this with proper uses of the TCL `eval' builtin.
tests: fix self check spurious failure with older bash versions
* tests/self-check-cleanup.test: Add trailing `:' to the test code
passed to $SHELL, otherwise older versions of bash (at least 2.05
and 3.2.39) fail to correctly remove the temporary directory in
the exit trap.
* tests/defs: Move the checks verifying that the variables `me',
`parallel_tests' and `required' aren't set in the environment ...
* tests/defs-static.in: ... in here, with some optimizations to
avoid useless forks. Also, do the same checks for the variables
`original_AUTOMAKE' and `original_ACLOCAL' too.
* tests/self-check-env-sanitize.test: Update.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Unset also variables
`original_AUTOMAKE' and `original_ACLOCAL'.
tests: fix spurious failure in a test on TESTS (VPATH-related)
* check-tests-in-builddir.test: When not using the parallel-tests
option, do not check that VPATH components are not present in the
displayed test name, since the simple-tests driver do not try to
strip them.

test defs: new subroutines for test skipping/failing.
* tests/defs.in (Exit): Move definition of this function earlier.
(warn_, skip_, fail_, framework_failure_): New functions, inspired
to the homonyms in gnulib's tests/init.sh.
($stderr_fileno_): New global variable, used by the new functions
above.
* tests/README: Updated.
* tests/mclean.test: Remove, it's a weak grepping test completely
superseded by the much more complete `maintclean.test'.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* tests/defs.in: Sanity check: abort if any of `parallel_tests'
or `required' is in the environment.
($sed_unindent_prog): Initialize to empty, to avoid interferences
from the environment.
* tests/self-check-me-in-env.test: Renamed to ...
* tests/self-check-env-sanitize.test: ... this, and extended.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Unset variables `parallel_tests' and
`required'. Adjust comments.
tests: don't allow `$me' to be overridden from the environment
* tests/defs.in: Sanity check: abort if $me is in the environment.
* tests/self-check-me-in-env.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Unset variable `me'.
(TESTS): Update.
The AM_TESTS_SETUP naming was not a good one after all. It may
be technically more correct than AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, but the
latter is a better one simply because it is easier to remember,
and even if you've never heard of it and only know the semantics
of TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, you can have a straightforward way to
figure out how AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT would work.
* tests/check.am (am__check_pre): Update.
* doc/automake.in (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Update.
* tests/parallel-tests-am_tests_setup.test: Renamed ...
* tests/parallel-tests-am_tests_environment.test: ... to this,
and updated.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
check: new developer-reserved AM_TESTS_SETUP variable
For reference, see the discussion at:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2011-01/msg00213.html>
* lib/am/check.am [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] (am__check_pre): Pass also
$(AM_TESTS_SETUP). Comments updated, and some typos fixed.
* doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Document
AM_TESTS_SETUP. Reorder some of the existing documentation a bit.
* tests/parallel-tests-am_tests_setup.test: New test.
* tests/depcomp8b.test: Add the `--enable-dependency-tracking'
option to the ./configure invocation, so that slower dependency
extractors are not rejects.
* tests/depcomp8b.test: Likewise. Also ...
(foo.c): ... since we are at it, fix spacing to be consistent
with GNU coding standards.
The following additional changes has been made:
* m4/amversion.in: Bump serial number from `1' to `8', to avoid
potential future conflicts with branch-1.11.
* m4/amversion.m4: Likewise.
* m4/gcj.m4: Likewise.
* m4/python.m4: Likewise.
* m4/install-sh.m4: Likewise.
* tests/self-check-cleanup.test: Be laxer when grepping output
from `ls -l', to account for ACLs and SELinux-only files.
* tests/self-check-dir.test: Source `defs-static' to read in the
correct definition for $SHELL.
* tests/self-check-me.test: Likewise, and extend a bit.
maintainer check: quote literal `$' in Makefile rule
* Makefile.am (sc_tests_PATH_SEPARATOR): Escape literal `$'
character in double-quoted string. Fix a bug in which the rule
emitted an erroneously empty substring in its error message.
test defs: define default $distdir (help reducing duplication)
* tests/defs.in ($distdir): New variable, might be used in
testcases checking distribution-related features.
* tests/pr9.test: Use it.
* tests/subdir9.test: Likewise.
* tests/vtexi3.test: Add comment explaining why we redefine
$distdir in this test.
depcomp: fix bugs in tests and in the depcomp script
* lib/depcomp (gcc): Remove duplicated `-e' from sed invocation.
* tests/depcomp10.test: Make it executable. Fix a blunder that
has left part of an intended comment not prefixed by `#', thus
causing shell syntax errors. In this same comment, break a
too-long reported error message on multiple lines, for clarity.
Add reference to the relevant bug report. Add a comment which
explains why the test result 'skipped' if the first "make" call
fails. Add other useful comments.
* tests/depcomp9.test: Slightly improve comments.
* lib/depcomp: Be sure to remove VPATH-prefixed object from
dependency output when creating stub rule.
* tests/depcomp10.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* NEWS: Update.

test defs: fix 'javac' requirement for older JDK versions
The Java compiler from JDK 1.5 (and presumably earlier versions)
cannot handle the `-version' option by itself; and while it does
print the version number, it then errors out with an usage error:
$ javac -version
javac 1.5.0_22
javac: no source files
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
...
Luckily, adding the `-help' option to the `javac' invocation
seems to fix this problem.
* tests/defs.in (javac): Pass also the `-help' option to the
`javac' program. Add a comment explaining why it is needed.
java: check_JAVA does not cause compilation by "make all" anymore
Fixes automake bug#8234.
* automake.in (handle_java): Make stamp of class files built from
java sources in $(check_JAVA) a dependency of `check' target, not
`all' target.
* tests/java-check.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* NEWS: Update.
* THANKS: Update.
coverage: more on java support: EXTRA_ and noinst_ prefixes
* tests/java-extra.test: New test, checking support for the
prefix `EXTRA_' with the JAVA primary.
* tests/java-noinst.test: New test, checking support for the
prefix `noinst_' with the JAVA primary.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* lib/depcomp [makedepend]: Remove any VPATH prefix from the
object file name, so a rebuild doesn't attempt to update the
.Po files in the source tree.
* tests/depcomp9.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* NEWS: Update.
Create subdirs for generated sources even when not dep tracking.
* automake.in (handle_single_transform): If $object is derived
and lands in subdir, be sure to output a dirstamp dependency.
* tests/yacc5.test: Avoid falsely matching the dirstamp
dependency when grepping for a rule.
* tests/lex-subobj-nodep.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* THANKS: Update.
Report by Ignacy Gawedzki.

* tests/aclocal6.test: Move checks related to "maintainer-clean"
functionalities into ...
* tests/maintclean-vpath.test: ... this new test.
