Patch: more manual updates

[Tom Tromey]

I forgot to send last night's manual updates to this list.  Sorry.

Here's the next batch.

2001-06-12  Tom Tromey  <address@hidden>

        * automake.texi (ANSI): Minor clarification.
        (Other GNU Tools): Don't mention Guile.
        (Guile): Removed.
        (Java Support): Mention file extensions.
        (Man pages): Mention dist_.  Don't mention info pages.
