Hmm, on head, ./import-gnulib.sh just generated this file, rather than
trying to do it at 'make dist' time. I like that approach better (and
it's simpler); but at least the branch's solution works, even if it is not
optimal, so I'm not going to spend time backporting it.
2007-07-17 Eric Blake <address@hidden>
Ensure 'make distcheck' can pass on cygwin.
* configure.in: Rename...
* configure.ac: ...to this, to match automake recommendations.
* NEWS: Add release dates.
* doc/find-maint.texi (Documentation): Document where release
dates are usefully recorded.
* locate/Makefile.am (AM_INSTALLCHECK_STD_OPTIONS_EXEMPT): Be
aware of .exe.
* .cvsignore: Ignore 'make dist' files.
* po/.cvsignore: Ignore remove-potcdate.sed.
