FYI: More Makefile.maint

[Akim Demaille]

Jim, don't you think it'd be cool if we could 1. fill in ChangeLog,
2. have the same kind of mechanism for error.[ch], error.m4 etc.

I think the m4 files should help.  Say error.m4 says where to find the
master, and what other files are to be fetched.  A mere --trace would
then give the list of what is to be done.

from  Akim Demaille  <address@hidden>
        * Makefile.maint: Formatting changes.
        (do-po-update, po-update, cvs-update, update): New targets.
        (AMTAR): Remove.
