-Things it might be nice to do someday:
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Make AC_CHECK_LIB check whether the function is already available
-  before checking for the library.  This might involve adding another
-  kind of cache variable to indicate whether a given function needs a
-  given library.  The current ac_cv_func_ variables are intended to
-  indicate whether the function is in the default libraries, but
-  actually also take into account whatever value LIBS had when they
-  were checked for.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Add AC_PROG_CC_POSIX to replace the current ad-hoc macros for AIX,
-  Minix, ISC, etc.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Use AC_EGREP_CPP instead of AC_TRY_LINK to detect structures and members.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Make AC_CHECK_FUNC[S] automatically use any particular macros for the
-  listed functions.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Support creating both config.h and DEFS in the same configure.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Select the right CONFIG_SHELL automatically (for Ultrix, Lynx especially.)
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Doc: Add concept index.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Doc: Centralize information on POSIX, MS-DOS, cross-compiling, and
-  other important topics.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Split up AC_SUBST substitutions using a loop to accomodate shells
-  with severely limited here document sizes, if it turns out to be a problem.
-  I'm not sure whether the limit is on lines or bytes; if bytes, it
-  will be less of a problem than it was with the long lines used for
-  creating a header file.
-  There has also been a report that HPUX and OSF/1 seds only allow 100
-  commands.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Allow [ and ] in egrep patterns and AC_DEFINE args.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Add a Makefile generator that supports the standard GNU targets.
-  (Being worked on.)
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Mike Haertel's suggestions:
-
-** Provide files containing decls for alloca, strings, etc.
-
-** Cross compiling:
-
-*** Error messages include instructions for overriding defaults using
-config.site.
-
-*** Distribute a config.site corresponding to a hypothetical bare POSIX system with c89.
-
-*** Cache consistency checking: ignore cache if environment
-(CC or PATH) differs.
-
-** Site defaults:
-
-*** Convention for consistency checking of env vars and options in config.site so config.site can print obnoxious messages if it doesn't like options or env vars that users use.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* autoscan: Tell the files that caused inclusion of each macro,
-in a dnl comment.  (Seems to be hard.)
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Look at user contributed macros: prototypes, IEEE double precision math, 
-shared libraries, various other things.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Test suite: more things to test:
-** That the shell scripts produce correct output on some simple data.
-** Configuration header files.  That autoheader does the right thing,
-   and so does AC_CONFIG_HEADER when autoconf is run.
