| dirname: move m4/dos.m4 functionality into lib/dosname.h

| m4/dos.m4 needs to go. It laboriously invokes the C compiler, and
| extracts symbols from it, puts them into config.h; but it's much
| easier to use the symbols directly. filename.h already does this,
| but it disagrees with dos.m4 in some respects. This patch
| introduces a different include file dosname.h that packages up
| dos.m4, and then later we can work on merging filename.h and
| dosname.h. Applications that need only the easy-to-configure
| symbols should consider including dosname.h rather than dirname.h.

I don't see this problem. I did
hg pull
hg update
cd gnulib
git pull
cd ..
./autogen.sh
followed by changing to my build directory and doing
/path/to/src/directory/configure --prefix=... ...
make
and it all seems to works correctly.
