Re: documentation example in AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE wrong

[Paul Eggert]

Thanks for the bug report.  I don't offhand know why
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE would be useful these days, so the simplest fix
is to remove the example.  I installed the following patch.

2002-09-03  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>

        * doc/autoconf.texi (Configuration Commands): Remove obsolete
        example for AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE.  Problem reported by Marcus
        Brinkmann.
