* Sun Dec 13 2020 Andreas Stieger - autoconf 2.70:
* Warnings about obsolete constructs are now on by default, these warnings can be turned off with -Wno-obsolete
* Many macros have become pickier about argument quotation
* Many macros no longer AC_REQUIRE as many other macros as they used to, may expose several classes of latent bugs
* More macros use config.sub and config.guess internally
* Setting CC to a C++ compiler is no longer supported
* Running configure tests with warnings promoted to errors is not supported
* Including confdefs.h manually may cause test failures
* Older versions of automake and aclocal (< 1.8) are no longer supported
* AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS no longer directly supports Cygnus configure
* AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_HEADERS only do a compilation test
* AC_INCLUDES_DEFAULT assumes an ISO C90 compliant C implementation
* AS_ECHO and AS_ECHO_N unconditionally use ‘printf’
* Configure scripts require support for $( ... ) command substitution
* AC_INIT now trims extra white space from its arguments
* Macros that take whitespace-separated lists as arguments now always expand macros within those arguments
* AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R assumes strerror_r is unavailable if it’s not declared
* AC_OPENMP can’t be used if you have files named ‘mp’ or ‘penmp’
* Configure scripts now support a ‘--runstatedir’ option
* autoreconf will now run gtkdocize and intltoolize when appropriate
* autoreconf now recognizes AM_GNU_GETTEXT_REQUIRE_VERSION
* autoheader handles secondary config headers better
* AC_PROG_CC now enables C2011 mode if the compiler supports it
* New macro AC_C__GENERIC tests for C2011 _Generic support
* AC_C_VARARRAYS has been aligned with C2011.
* New macro AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
* AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS knows about more extensions to enable
* New compatibility macro AC_CHECK_INCLUDES_DEFAULT
* AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE has been improved
* AC_PROG_LEX has an option to not look for yywrap
* Use of the long-deprecated name ‘configure.in’ for the autoconf input file now elicits a warning in the “obsolete” category
* Use of the undocumented internal shell variables $as_echo and $as_echo_n now elicits a warning in the “obsolete” category. The macros AS_ECHO and AS_ECHO_N should be used instead.
* autoconf will now issue warnings (in the “syntax” category) if the input file is missing a call to AC_INIT and/or AC_OUTPUT
* autoconf will now issue warnings (in the “syntax” category) for a non-literal URL argument to AC_INIT, and for a TARNAME argument to AC_INIT which is either non-literal or contains characters that should not be used in file names (e.g. ‘
*’).
* AC_PROG_CC_STDC, AC_PROG_CC_C89, AC_PROG_CC_C99 are now obsolete. Applications should use AC_PROG_CC.
* AC_HEADER_STDC and AC_HEADER_TIME are now stubs.
* AC_DIAGNOSE, AC_FATAL, AC_WARNING, and _AC_COMPUTE_INT are now replaced with modern equivalents by autoupdate.
* AC_CONFIG_HEADER is now diagnosed as obsolete, and replaced with AC_CONFIG_HEADERS by autoupdate.
* The macro AC_OBSOLETE is obsolete.
* Man pages for config.guess and config.sub are no longer provided
* Bug fixes for compatibility with current Automake, Libtool, Perl, Texinfo, and shells
* Compatibility fixes for compilers and build environments
* Various autotest enhancements- drop upstream patches:

* Tue Nov 05 2019 Stefan Brüns - Fix testsuite with Bash 5, add port-tests-to-bash-5.patch
