commit 90661f5cd9fcab958357d099e01c2e21dc6638de
Author: Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
Date:   Sat Nov 17 09:36:17 2007 +0100

    Avoid error with Tru64 awk and testsuite lines with many words.
    
    * lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): In the awk script that
    reads the testsuite, set the field separator to an unusual value,
    in order to not run over the limit of 199 fields.  Tru64 4.0D awk
    even splits the input if $i, i>0, was never accessed in the script.

        AC_*_TOOL does not canonicalize the prefix
        * doc/autoconf.texi (Generic Programs): Do not say that
        the *_TOOL macros canonicalize, they simply use the `host_alias'.
