* bootstrap (get_version): Don't use perl's $] special
variable, as that requires updating all bootstrap.conf files to
use perl's x.yyyzzz version format. Instead make the regular
expression more general to support version formats from older
perl-5.005_002 (5.5.2) and perl-5.11 which has other numbers
in the version line.
* bootstrap (bootstrap_epilogue): Define a default, empty function.
Remove coreutils-specific code, and instead,
invoke this new function at the end of this script.
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Define, to override the default.
* bootstrap: Revert commit 9f39fa855, 2009-03-28,
"build: use automake's --silent-rules option when possible".
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Instead, set it here.
Require the just-released version of automake: 1.10b.
GNU cmp exits without reading all input when given the -s option,
and that can cause termination of the writing process via SIGPIPE.
Instead, when reading from a pipe, just redirect output to /dev/null
so that all input is read.
Prompted by a report from Ed Avis:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14710>
* README-hacking: Organise LZMA and Valgrind as
as optional requirements rather than in their own sections.
Mention bootstrap will now check tool versions.
* README-prereq: Make a start on specific instructions
for optaining build tools. Currently we just have notes
for Fedora linux.
* bootstrap.conf: Add the list of tools and versions required.
* bootstrap: Add the logic to check for the required tools,
and list all required tools and versions if any are missing.
* bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): This preserves line numbering
e.g., in assertions, which is important when correlating between
coreutils test failures and the original files in gnulib/tests.
Suggested by Eric Blake.
* bootstrap: Make the gnulib-tests/test-*.sh scripts executable.
This restores code removed by dec8bb25bb.

* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): ... not just when the checksum differs.
So now, if I manually remove po/xx.po, rerunning bootstrap will
copy the latest into place.

* bootstrap: After all is done, transform the generated gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Set it here.
* gnulib-tests/Makefile.am: New file.
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add gnulib-tests.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add gnulib-tests/Makefile.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS) [ARGMATCH_DIE_DECL]: Omit the
"extern " prefix to "void usage ()", so that the macro string value can
be used to construct a function definition in gnulib's test-argmatch.c.
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool_options): Add a space before the use
of $gnulib_tool_option_extras, so that it's separated from the
preceding argument.
