In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use
https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading
software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to
Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is
downstream of, which I'll patch separately.
Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to
malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers,
and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other
countries browse US-based websites. See, for example:
Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar
S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI
2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626
HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant
help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should
take some care here.

The use 'run_make' with the -E, -O and -M option, it is more
idiomatic now. Also, this way, centralized fixes and improvements
done in 'run_make' will automatically propagate through most of
the testsuite.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_run_make_redirect): Also check against
'$MAKE' invocations that uses output redirections (and not only against
'run_make' invocation that do so).
* Several tests: Adjust (and few minor cosmetic changes as well, while
at it).

It gives the impression that they are directly runnable, as with
"./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that was the case. Today,
tests are runnable only through "make check" or "./runtest".
This change is for the 'micro' branch (automake 1.13.2a). It will
soon be followed by similar patches for the 'maint' branch (automake
1.13a) and the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a).
* t/*.sh, t/*.tap: Remove executable bit.
* maint.mk (sc_tests_executable): Remove.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
* gen-testsuite-part: Set permissions of generated tests to
'444' (-r--r--r--), rather than 555 (-r-xr-xr-x).

This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8,
"tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh"
* All tests: To run the common setup, use the command:
. test-init.sh
instead of the older, "historical" one:
. ./defs || exit 1
Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit'
shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all
the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite
do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found
(at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only
mode that concerns us in the testsuite).
* t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
* gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

Once, for the sake of (at least) Solaris 10 /bin/sh, we had to use
"test ! -f FILE" or "test ! -r FILE" or "test ! -d FILE" instead,
because the that shell's 'test' built-in didn't grok the '-e' option.
Note however that we still can't use "test ! -e" in the Makefile recipes
used in the test cases; that is because those recipes are run with the
shell detected by 'configure', and Autoconf-generated configure scripts
do no guarantee to find or provide a POSIX-compatible shell.
* Several tests: Adjust.
* t/yacc-clean-cxx: Adjust, and remove a couple of useless commands.
* t/parallel-tests-dry-run-2.sh: Adjust, and add invocation to
"make -n" forgotten in previous versions of the test.
* t/txinfo26.sh: Adjust, and don't bother to skip the test when it's
run in a directory whose absolute path contain whitespace: that setup
is not supported anyway.
* t/maken3.sh: Adjust, and fix a typo that could cause a minor false
negative.
* t/test-trs-recover2.sh: Prefer using 'skip_' with a suitable error
message over a bare 'exit 77'.

Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we
can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated
correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot
dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required
by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh).
For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry
about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the
Autoconf manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap>
The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following
shells:
- Bash 4.1
- Bash 3.2
- Bash 3.0
- Bash 2.05b
- dash 0.5.5.1
- dash 0.5.2
- AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package)
- MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package)
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh
* t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ...
(_am_exit): ... like this.
(exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit'
as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10
/bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it.
(_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we
really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same
name.
* configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite
supports aliases named like shell builtins.
* t/REAMDE: Adjust.
* All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'.
* t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit'
after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t.
that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be
honored.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete.
(sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
(sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little.
* Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required
to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check.
* gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the
generated scripts.

Since commit 'v1.12-36-g2d68fd9' of 2012-05-07, "configure: search a
sturdy POSIX shell to be used in the testsuite", the shell running
our test script is assured to be a POSIX-conforming shell, so we can
use the more modern and flexible idioms and features that we couldn't
use when we also aimed at compatibility with non-POSIX Bourne shells,
like Solaris /bin/sh.
* t/README: Suggest to use POSIX shell features liberally in test cases,
with possible exception of Makefile recipes and configure shell code.
* Several tests: Adjust to use more POSIX shell features; e.g., $(...)
rather than `...`, $((...)) rather than `expr ...`, "if ! CMD; then ..."
instead of "if CMD; then :; else ...", and so on.
In several places, when using the 'test' built-in, prefer '-eq' over
'=' for numeric comparisons, and prefer "grep -c PATTERN FILE" over
"grep PATTERN FILE | wc -l".
Throw in other low-hanging easy improvements and fixlets while we are
at it.
* t/ax/depcomp.sh, t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/tap-functions.sh,
defs, defs-static.in: Likewise.

* t/install-info-dir.sh: Skip some checks if 'install-info' is the one
from dpkg, not the one from GNU info; the former might try to create
files in '/var/backups/', causing spurious failures like this for any
non-root user:
install-info(.../install-info-dir.dir/_inst/info/foo.info): \
creating new section `Dummy utilities'
cp: cannot create regular file `/var/backups/infodir.bak': \
Permission denied
install-info(.../install-info-dir.dir/_inst/info/foo.info): \
could not backup .../install-info-dir.dir/_inst/info/dir in \
/var/backups/infodir.bak: No such file or directory

From a report by Dmitry V. Levin:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-04/msg00085.html>
* t/install-info-dir.sh : When 'install-info' is unavailable, create a
dummy '${infodir}/dir' file by hand when that file is required by later
checks.

* rmch:
maint: simplify generation of files with @substed@ stuff
t/README: update w.r.t. recent overhaul (non-recursive build system)
docs: fix names of relevant test cases in comments
NEWS: automake build systems avoids make recursion
maint: no more make recursion in Automake's build system
tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'
tests: remove recipes that run tests with 'prove'
tests: move most helper scripts and files into the 'ax' subdirectory

When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive
make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be
prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase
the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of
exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most
notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information.
Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test'
script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test'
will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters.
