[FYI] docs: cygnus mode doesn't require AM_CYGWIN32 macro.


From: Stefano Lattarini
Subject: [FYI] docs: cygnus mode doesn't require AM_CYGWIN32 macro.
Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2010 00:21:48 +0100
User-agent: KMail/1.13.3 (Linux/2.6.30-2-686; KDE/4.4.4; i686; ; )

The automake manual states that the cygwin mode requires the macro AM_CYGWIN32,
but this is not true anymore since at least commit Release-1-2-31-g3038064
"merged changes from Cygnus" of 1997-08-25 (yep!); also, the AM_CYGWIN32 macro
has been obsoleted from at least commit Release-1-3b-14-gd4d5968 "Track recent
autoconf changes" of 1998-09-26.

So I installed the following patch to maint, and pushed.

Regards,
   Stefano

docs: cygnus mode doesn't require AM_CYGWIN32 macro.

* doc/automake.texi (Cygnus): Mode 'cygnus' does not require
the AM_CYGWIN32 macro (and indeed hasn't required it since at
least commit Release-1-2-31-g3038064 "merged changes from
Cygnus" of 1997-08-25).
