Now that we require Automake 1.15, we can use this macro rather than
set the tool up ourselves. The current code doesn't properly search
for a prefixed ar tool as-is.
When merging iq2000 up a level, it included a partial conversion to
AM_PROG_AS in the common directory. Finish it for all directories
to kill off the custom LIB_AM_PROG_AS which we no longer need since
we require Automake 1.15 now.
Now that we use AC_NO_EXECUTABLES, and we require a recent version of
autoconf, we don't need to define our own copies of these macros. So
switch to the standard AC_PROG_CC.
The cpu-init/configure script isn't doing anything useful, so merge
the logic up to the parent dir. This is how the arm/ tree integrates
its cpu-init/ subdir too.
The current libgloss multilib logic is almost exactly the same as the
config/multi.m4, and the differences should be minor, so switch over
to that to delete custom logic on ourside.
The insertions here look larger and that's because none of the scripts
were declaring --enable-multilib explicitly even though they checked the
flag and changed behavior.
The newlib & libgloss dirs are already generated using autoconf-2.69.
To avoid merging new code and/or accidental regeneration using diff
versions, leverage config/override.m4 to pin to 2.69 exactly. This
matches what gcc/binutils/gdb are already doing.
The README file already says to use autoconf-2.69.
To accomplish this, it's just as simple as adding -I flags to the
top-level config/ dir when running aclocal. This is because the
override.m4 file overrides AC_INIT to first require the specific
autoconf version before calling the real AC_INIT.
In order to transition to automake, we have to use hardcoded paths in
the AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR macro call (since automake evaluates the path
itself, and doesn't expand vars), so simplify all the calls here.
Regenerate the files using automake-1.15 & autoconf-2.69 to match the
binutils/gdb/gcc projects. Ran:
libgloss $ find -name configure.ac -printf '%h\n' | while read d; do
(cd $d; export WANT_AUTOCONF=2.69 WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.15;
aclocal-1.15 -I.. && autoconf-2.69); done
