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.

Support for the two- and three-arguments invocation forms of the
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE macro, as in:
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE($PACKAGE, $VERSION)
or:
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE($PACKAGE, $VERSION, NODEFINE)
will be removed in the next major Automake release (1.13).
Such usages have already been deprecated in the documentation
starting from commit v1.11-2015-ge99690a of 23-02-2012 "docs,
news: document planned removal of obsolete macros and features".
We now start giving runtime warnings as well (in the 'obsolete'
category).
* NEWS: Update.
* m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Report the two- and three-arguments
form invocation.
* automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Likewise.
* doc/automake.texi: Minor adjustments. Add an @anchor to the
location where it's described how to modernize outdated invocation
of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, so that it can be referenced from automake
warning/error messages.
* t/aminit-moreargs-deprecation.sh: New test.
* tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
* tests/ac-output-old.tap: Adjust by calling automake with the
warnings in the 'obsolete' category disabled.
* t/backcompat.test: Likewise.
* t/backcompat3.test: Likewise.
* t/backcompat5.test: Likewise.
* t/backcompat6.test: Likewise.
* t/version.test: Likewise.
* t/version2.test: Likewise.
* t/pr2.test: Modernize style of AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
invocations, and use proper m4 quoting.
* t/pr87.test: Likewise.
* t/confsub.test: Likewise.
* t/install2.test: Likewise.

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.
* tests/: Rename ...
* t/: ... to this.
* t/*.test: Rename ...
* t/*.sh: ... to this.
* t/.gitignore: Removed as obsolete.
* t/defs: Adjust.
