Bugs fixed in 1.7.3:
* Fix stamp files numbering (when using multiple AC_CONFIG_HEADERS).
* Query distutils for `pythondir' and `pythonexecdir', instead of
using an hardcoded path. This should allow builds on 64-bit
distributions that usually use lib64/ instead of lib/.
* AM_PATH_PYTHON will also search for python2.3.
* elisp files are now built all at once instead of one by one. Besides
incurring a speed-up, this is required to support interdependent elisp files.
* Support for DJGPP:
- `make distcheck' will now work in `_inst/' and `_build' instead
of `=inst/' and `=build/'
- use `_dirstamp' when the file-system doesn't support `.dirstamp'
- install/uninstall `*.i[0-9][0-9]'-style info files
- more changes that affect only the Automake package (not its output)
* Fix some incompatibilities with upcoming perl-5.10.
* Properly quote AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME and AC_PACKAGE_VERSION when defining
PACKAGE and VERSION.
* depcomp fixes:
- dashmstdout and dashXmstdout modes: don't use `-o /dev/null', this
is troublesome with gcc and Solaris compilers. (PR/385)
- makedepend mode: work with Libtool. (PR/385 too)
- support for ICC.
* better support for unusual gettext setups, such as multiple po/ directories
(PR/381):
- Flag missing po/ and intl/ directories as warnings, not errors.
- Disable these warnings if po/ does not exist.
* Noteworthy manual updates:
- New FAQ chapter.
- Document how AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR interacts with missing files.
(Debian Bug #39542)
- Document `AM_YFLAGS = -d'. (PR/382)
- Automake 1.7.3 released,
