automake 1.7.2 & DJGPP: =inst and =build directories

[Richard Dawe]

Hello.

The equals character '=' is not valid in DOS filenames. So automake will break
under DOS, when it uses =build and =inst filenames in Makefiles. Below is a
ChangeLog and patch to use _build and _inst instead.

Please CC me on any replies, because I'm not subscribed to bug-automake.

Thanks, regards,

        *  lib/am/distdir.am: '=' is not valid in DOS filenames.
        Use '_build' and '_inst' instead of '=build' and '=inst'.

        *  tests/man2.test: Reflect change automake: check
        for files in '_build' and '_inst' directories
        instead of '=build' and '=inst'.
