[ANNOUNCE] New stable automake release: automake-1.4-p4

[Gary V . Vaughan]

My very own brown paper bag release...

I have just uploaded patch release 4 from the automake-1.4 maintenance 
branch.  This time configure.ac from Autoconf-2.50 is supported properly.  
The tarball is available now from:

        ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.4-p4.tar.gz

Or as a a diff or xdelta against the previous release:

         ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.4-p3-1.4-p4.diff.gz
         ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.4-p3-1.4-p4.tar.xdp.gz

...and shortly from all GNU mirror sites.  Or else directly from anonymous 
CVS using the tag `Release-1-4-p4'.

The changes in this release since version 1.4-p3 are as follows:

   * Deal with configure.ac as well as configure.in -- this time for real!
   * The version numbering system now allows three point version numbers,
     such as 1.4.4, without thinking they are alpha release numbers.
         
Unless you use configure.ac, or 3 point release numbers there is no need to 
upgrade to this release.

Cheers,
         Gary.
