[*] You can use either of the above signature files to verify that
the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact.  First,
be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball.
Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify autoconf-archive-2011.01.02.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 99089D72

and rerun the `gpg --verify' command.

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
  Autoconf 2.68
  Automake 1.11.1
  Gnulib v0.0-4510-gc96bccb

* Noteworthy changes in release 2011.01.02 (2011-01-02) [stable]

  AX_BOOST_BASE has been extended to support non-x86 64-bit architectures, such
  as PPC64 or Sparc64, too. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7428> for
  further details.

  AX_CHECK_ZLIB has been bug-fixed to honor the --with-zlib option. Further
  details are available at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7411>.

  AX_CHECK_JAVA_HOME has been extended to deal correctly with MacOS X. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7408> for further details.

  The robustness of AX_PROG_FLEX and AX_PROG_BISON has been improved. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7405> for further details.

  A bug in AX_EXT_HAVE_LIB has been fixed that prevented the macro from being
  called several times. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7403> for further
  details.

  The new macro AX_CXX_RESTRICT_THIS has been added. It's purpose is to
  determine whether the C++ compiler supports qualifying a member function with
  a restricted "this" pointer. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7397> for
  further details.

  AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_0X has been improved to support GCC 4.5.x. Please refer
  to <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7387> for further details.

  The macro AX_GCC_OPTION has been marked obsolete and will be deleted from the
  archive in the foreseeable future. Its functionality is now provided by
  AX_C_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CXX_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CPP_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CXXCPP_CHECK_FLAG,
  and AX_LD_CHECK_FLAG.

  The license of the following macros has been updated from GPLv2 (with
  Autoconf exception) to GPLv3 (with Autoconf exception):
  AX_ARG_WITH_PATH_STYLE, AX_C_BIGENDIAN_CROSS, AX_C_DECLARE_BLOCK,
  AX_CFLAGS_AIX_OPTION, AX_CFLAGS_FORCE_C89, AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION,
  AX_CFLAGS_HPUX_OPTION, AX_CFLAGS_IRIX_OPTION, AX_CFLAGS_NO_WRITABLE_STRINGS,
  AX_CFLAGS_STRICT_PROTOTYPES, AX_CFLAGS_SUN_OPTION, AX_CFLAGS_WARN_ALL_ANSI,
  AX_CHECK_ALIGNED_ACCESS_REQUIRED, AX_CHECK_DEFINE, AX_CHECK_FUNC_IN,
  AX_CHECK_SYMBOL, AX_CHECK_TYPEDEF, AX_COND_WITH_LEVEL, AX_CONFIGURE_ARGS,
  AX_CREATE_GENERIC_CONFIG, AX_CREATE_STDINT_H, AX_CREATE_TARGET_H,
  AX_DEFINE_SUB_PATH, AX_DIRNAME, AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR, AX_EXPAND_PREFIX,
  AX_GCC_CONST_CALL, AX_GCC_MALLOC_CALL, AX_GCC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT,
  AX_MAINTAINER_MODE_AUTO_SILENT, AX_NOT_ENABLE_FRAME_POINTER,
  AX_NUMERIC_NAMEDLEVEL, AX_PATCH_LIBTOOL_CHANGING_CMDS_IFS, AX_PATH_LIB_PCRE,
  AX_PREFIG_CONFIG_H, AX_PROG_CC_CHAR_SUBSCRIPTS, AX_PROG_CP_S,
  AX_SET_DEFAULT_PATHS_SYSTEM, AX_SPEC_FILE, AX_SPEC_PACKAGE_VERSION,
  AX_SUBDIR_FILES, AX_SUBST_WITH, AX_SYS_LARGEFILE_SENSITIVE,
  AX_WARNING_DEFAULT_ACLOCALDIR, and AX_WARNING_DEFAULT_PKGCONFIG.

  The macros AX_CXX_CPPFLAGS_STD_LANG, AX_CXX_CXXFLAGS_STD_LANG and
  AX_CXX_LDFLAGS_STD_LANG have been modified to use AX_COMPILER_VENDOR
  for compiler detection.

  The new macro AX_ASM_INLINE has been added. It's purpose is to determine
  whether the C compiler supports in-line assembler instructions.

  The new macro AX_FORCEINLINE has been added. It's purpose is to determine
  whether the C compiler supports forced in-lining.

  The new macro AX_LIB_CGAL_CORE has been added. Further details are available
  at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7370>.

  The new macro AX_CHECK_LIBRARY has been added. Further details are available
  at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7363>.

  AX_JNI_INCLUDE_DIR has been fixed to work correctly on MacOS X 10.6.4, where
  the header <jni.h> is a symbolic link. Further details are available at
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7360>.
