[FYI] distlinksbrk.test: Work around botched make -k.

2010-12-21 Thread Stefano Lattarini
I've applied the patch below to a temporary bug-fixing branch, merged it to maint, merged maint to master, and pushed. The testcase still works with GNU make, FreeBSD make and Solaris make, but I couldn't test if it really fixes the problem with HP-UX make and IRIX make. Regards, Stefano

[FYI] docs: cygnus mode doesn't require AM_CYGWIN32 macro.

The automake manual states that the cygwin mode requires the macro AM_CYGWIN32, but this is not true anymore since at least commit Release-1-2-31-g3038064 merged changes from Cygnus of 1997-08-25 (yep!); also, the AM_CYGWIN32 macro has been obsoleted from at least commit Release-1-3b-14-gd4d5968
