+
+2000-08-06  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+	* automake.in (handle_dependencies): Set $require_file_found{'depcomp'}
+	if the depcomp file exists, before calling require_config_file on
+	`depcomp'.  This makes require_file_internal skip its buggy existence
+	test that would make automake fail (with `required file `lib/depcomp'
+	not found') when AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR is not set.
+
+	This change change does not fix the existing bug where, if `depcomp'
+	is not present in the build directory (at the top level), automake
+	still gives the inaccurate diagnostic about *lib*/depcomp rather
+	than ./depcomp.
