+       * bootstrap: Don't assume $(...) works; use `...` instead.
+       Problem reported by Paul Hilfinger.  Also, diagnose non-GNU
+       gettext better.
+
+       * doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary, Bison Options): Clarify what's
+       put into the -d output file, and mention what to do if YYSTYPE is
+       defined as a macro.

+
+       Undo change made earlier today: it caused autopoint to not bring
+       in ABOUT-NLS.  Ouch.  Instead, substitute our own diagnostic for
+       autopoint's.
+
+       * bootstrap: Check that gettext version matches what's in
+       configure.ac.  Warn users to ignore robots.txt ERROR 404.
+       * bootstrap: Undo today's earlier change (logged below).
+       * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Likewise.
+
+       The gettext version checking is causing more trouble than it's
+       curing; remove it.  Problem reported by Paul Hilfinger.
+
+       * bootstrap: Issue a warning that one can expect a message
+       'AM_GNU_GETTEXT is used, but not AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION'.
+       * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Remove.

+
+       Ensure that the C++ compiler used for testing actually works on a
+       simple test program; if not, skip the C++-related tests.  Problem
+       reported by Vin Shelton in:
+       http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2004-05/msg00026.html
+
+       * m4/cxx.m4: New file.
+       * configure.ac (BISON_TEST_FOR_WORKING_CXX_COMPILER): Add.
+       * tests/atlocal.in (BISON_CXX_WORKS): Add.
+       * tests/local.at (AT_COMPILE_CXX): Use it.

+       * data/glr.c (yylloc): Output this macro even if locations are not
+       being generated, as the GLR parser needs it even in that case.
+       Problem reported by Troy A. Johnson
+       <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=195946>.
+
        * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Update to 1.875e.
