Enabling 'subdir-objects' would require sublter changes to several other parts of the build system that I don't know how to test properly. We should only enable the 'silent-rules' option for the moment. The updated patch below does this.

2013-05-06build: require Autoconf >= 2.62 and Automake >= 1.11.1Stefano Lattarini1-3/+3
Older versions of those tools should be considered fully obsolete. Also, GNU make already requires Gettext >= 0.18.1, which has been released six months after Automake 1.11.1 and two years after Autoconf 2.62; so the new requirement shouldn't be problematic for people already bootstrapping GNU make from the Git repository. * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Require Autoconf 2.62 or later. (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Automake 1.11.1 or later (1.11 had some serious bugs, and should not be used).

2013-05-06Remove use of vfork().Paul Smith1-1/+0
GCC was giving us warnings, most OS's now just run fork() when you call vfork(), and looking at the standard definition of vfork() we are a long way from using it safely anyway: you're not allowed to even call a function before you exec().
2013-05-05build: get rid of 'HAVE_ANSI_COMPILER' C preprocessor conditionalStefano Lattarini1-6/+0
GNU make already assume C89 or later throughout the codebase, and that preprocessor conditional was no longer used anyway. * configure.ac: Remove AC_DEFINE of HAVE_ANSI_COMPILER. * config.ami.template: Remove #define of HAVE_ANSI_COMPILER. * config.h-vms.template: Likewise. * config.h.W32.template: Likewise. * configh.dos.template: Likewise.

2013-04-28Remove support for pre-ANSI variadic function calls.Paul Smith1-5/+0
We've required support for ANSI C (ISO C 89) or better for quite a while. Get rid of the old varags.h, doprnt() stuff and simply assume ANSI C variadic function capability and basic C runtime library support (vfprintf, vsprintf, etc.)
