Subject: Backport improved autoconf semantics of AC_DEFUN_ONCE.
X-Git-Tag: v0.1~6392
X-Git-Url: http://erislabs.org.uk/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fcf62c3dfcc0a9ca32860327494e9971623f062c;p=gnulib.git

Backport improved autoconf semantics of AC_DEFUN_ONCE.

* m4/00gnulib.m4: New file.
* gnulib-tool (func_get_filelist): Always use it.
* m4/gnulib-common.m4 (gl_COMMON): Force the file to be used.
Reported by Bruno Haible, with suggestions from Paolo Bonzini.
