NG-NEWS: adjust w.r.t. recent changes in Automake master
The next version of Automake (1.14) is planned to drop few obsolete features that have already been removed in Automake-NG. There is thus no need to list this dropped features in our NG-NEWS file (as Automake-NG will certainly see no stable release before Automake 1.14 is out).

the once-accepted values '.txi' and '.texinfo' are not handled
anymore, and their use will trigger an error.
-* Support for the long-deprecated name 'configure.in' for the Autoconf
- input file (instead of the modern 'configure.ac') has been deprecated.

* If the sources for a target library like 'libfoo.a' or 'libbar.la' are
not explicitly specified, mainline Automake looks also (respectively)
for the files 'libfoo_a.c' or 'libbar_la.c' as possible default sources.

Similarly, the $(mkinstallscripts) make variable is not defined anymore;
one should use $(MKDIR_P) instead.
-* The $(INCLUDES) variable is not anymore passed to the invocations of
- compilers with a C-like preprocessing step (as are for example C, C++,
- Objective C, preprocessed assembler ...). One should just use
- $(AM_CPPFLAGS) instead, which has been supported and recommended for
- a long time.
-
-* Support for DJGPP, Windows 95/98/ME and MS-DOS has been removed.
- Of course, MinGW/MSYS and Cygwin on Windows 2000 and later are still
- fully supported.
-
-* Automake-generated Makefiles assume the target systems always support
- file names starting with a dot; accordingly, the internal m4 macro
- 'AM_SET_LEADING_DOT' and AC_SUBST'd variable 'am__leading_dot' have
- been removed.
-
* The Automake-defined internal make variable '$(ACLOCAL_M4)' has been
renamed to '$(am.remake.aclocal-m4)', and should be considered an
internal detail.
