Log Message:
Update to 2.69:
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.69 (2012-04-24) [stable]
** Autoconf now requires perl 5.6 or better (but generated configure
scripts continue to run without perl).
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.68b (2012-03-01) [beta]
Released by Eric Blake, based on git versions 2.68.*.
** Autoconf-generated configure scripts now unconditionally re-execute
themselves with $CONFIG_SHELL, if that's set in the environment.
** The texinfo documentation no longer specifies "front-cover" or
"back-cover" texts, so that it may now be included in Debian's
"main" section.
** Support for the Go programming language has been added. The new macro
AC_LANG_GO sets variables GOC and GOFLAGS.
** AS_LITERAL_IF again treats '=' as a literal. Regression introduced in
2.66.
** The macro AS_EXECUTABLE_P, present since 2.50, is now documented.
** Macros
- AC_PROG_LN_S and AS_LN_S now fall back on 'cp -pR' (not 'cp -p') if 'ln -s'
does not work. This works better for symlinks to directories.
- New macro AC_HEADER_CHECK_STDBOOL.
- New and updated macros for Fortran support:
AC_FC_CHECK_BOUNDS to enable array bounds checking
AC_F77_IMPLICIT_NONE and AC_FC_IMPLICIT_NONE to disable implicit integer
AC_FC_MODULE_EXTENSION to compute the Fortran 90 module name extension
AC_FC_MODULE_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module search path flag
AC_FC_MODULE_OUTPUT_FLAG for the Fortran 90 module output directory flag
AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT for preprocessed Fortran source files extensions
AC_FC_PP_DEFINE for the Fortran preprocessor define flag
