+       tests: use perl for printing special sequences to files.
+       And skip tests if perl is not available.  This is better than
+       playing tricks with shell portability.  Suggested by Akim
+       Demaille.
+       * tests/input.at (Bad character literals): Use it here for
+       omitting final newlines.
+       (Bad escapes in literals): Use it here for special characters.

+
+       Use locale when quoting.
+       * src/scan-gram.l (SC_ESCAPED_STRING, SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER): Use
+       quote rather than implementing quoting here.

+
+       Make previous patch more robust.
+       * src/output.c (ARRAY_CARDINALITY): New macro, copied from
+       argmatch.h.
+       (output_skeleton): Use it.
+       Suggested by Akim Demaille.
+
+       Import latest m4/m4.m4.
+       * m4/m4.m4: Copy from autoconf 2.64.
+       * configure.ac (M4_GNU_OPTION): New define.
+       * src/output.c (output_skeleton): Use it to resolve FIXME.
+       * NEWS: Mention this.
