Re: sed prob in foreign.at

[Akim Demaille]

| ./foreign.at:25: libtoolize | sed -n "s,^.*\`\(/[^']*\)'.*,\1,p" >at-path
| + at_status=0
| + set +vx
| + libtoolize
| + sed -n s,^.*`\(/[^']*\)'.*,\1,p
| libtoolize: `configure.in' does not exist

Waf waf waf!  Stupid me.  Yeah, of course, libtoolize does not know
about configure.ac (yet).

Thanks!  I'm checking this in:

Index: ChangeLog
from  Akim Demaille  <address@hidden>
        * tests/foreign.at (Autoconf & Libtool): `configure.in', not `.ac'
        since Libtool does not yet support it.
        Let the test suite be more verbose about at-path.
        From Patrick Welche.

Note that it will fail anyway, but this is known, and we are waiting
for CVS Libtool to catch up the list of submitted patches.  Thanks!
