Re: adding URL to --help output

In the meantime, standards.texi was updated to make this recommendation 
official, and a bug report to coreutils suggested changing the punctuation to 
make help2man do a better job with the additional text.

The patch series now stands at the following:  The first three fix --help 
output of: autoconf's executables, built configure/config.status files, and 
built testsuites; and the fourth adds an undocumented macro 
m4_copyright_condense, useful for making autoconf's './configure --version' 
output match GNU standards of only displaying the most recent year.  What do 
you think?  Should I go ahead and document that macro, or the fact that I 
tweaked A[CT]_COPYRIGHT to take an optional filter parameter?  If we do 
document it, should we reorder AC_COPYRIGHT's parameters to make the filter 
second and diversion name third (as I want to leave the diversion name argument 
undocumented)?

$ git pull git://repo.or.cz/autoconf/ericb.git help

Unless I hear comments in 24 hours, I'll go ahead and push this series (plus 
maybe an upstream sync to pick up the updated standards.texi justifying the 
series in the first place):

Eric Blake (4):
      Use URLs in --help output, part 1: autoconf executables.
      Use URLs in --help output, part 2: configure.
      Use URLs in --help output, part 3: testsuite.
      Fix years in copyright notices.

Subject: [PATCH] Use URLs in --help output, part 3: testsuite.

* doc/autoconf.texi (Writing Testsuites): Mention autotest
namespace.
(Writing Testsuites) <AT_INIT>: Mention mandatory macros.
(Making testsuite Scripts): Document AT_PACKAGE_URL.
* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): Follow our own advice.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Give the user a hint about
package.m4.  Enhance --help output.

m4_PACKAGE_URL.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_COPYRIGHT_YEARS): New macro.
(AC_COPYRIGHT): Add undocumented third parameter.
(_AC_INIT_COPYRIGHT): Avoid need to bump copyright years.
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Likewise.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (_AT_COPYRIGHT_YEARS): New macro.
(AT_INIT): Avoid need to bump copyright years.
* lib/autoconf/autotest.m4 (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Likewise.
(AT_COPYRIGHT): Add undocumented third parameter.
* tests/local.at (AT_COPYRIGHT): Don't add an extra copyright
parameter; the generic copyright given by autotest is sufficient
since we are the package that owns autotest.
