[PATCH 0/6] {master} Get rid of de-ANSI-fication support

[Stefano Lattarini]

This patch series (for master) completely remove the obsolete
de-ANSI-fication support from the Automake codebase.

It doesn't get rid of the `AM_C_PROTOTYPES' m4 macro and `ansi2knr'
automake option completely, though: they are still handled to give
a more detailed error message about the de-ANSI-fication support
removal, to help transition of "stubborn" packages.  I plan to
completely remove them only starting from the next-after-the-next
release (1.13, ideally).

After the series is applied, the testsuite still passes (tested
on Solaris 10 with gcc 4.6.0, Sun C 5.9, GNU make 3.82 and
/usr/ccs/bin/make).

I will give 72 hours for reviews before pushing to a topic branch
'remove-deansification', to be soon merged into master.

Regards,
  Stefano
