    Merge branch 'master' into ng/master

    * master:
      news: Automake 1.13 will require Autoconf >= 2.65
      news: put planned future backward-incompatibilities on top
      readme: update INSTALL to latest version from Autoconf
      sync: some auxiliary files synced from upstream
      hacking: copyright notices must be updated before releasing
      color-tests: coloring can be forced on non-ANSI terminals as well
      tests: root can write on files without write perms; cater for this
      tests: require lex, not yacc, in a lex test case
      AM_PROG_MKDIR_P: remove as obsolete
      AM_PROG_MKDIR_P: deprecate, to be removed in Automake 1.13
      maint: fix a comment typo
