[Bug-autogen] [PATCH] documentation and warning cleanup patches

[Art Haas]

Hi.

I'm sending along three patches in this mail. Two patches are
for the documentation - they replace "..." with @dots{} and
fix an empty @pxref{}. The third patch adjusts the compat.in
file so that many warnings about concatentation of string
literals and__FUNCTION__ are removed. There's still a problematic
use in the ERROR_FUNCTION macro, but that will have to wait
for a later fix.

On another matter, I've been unable to build the last couple
of releases completely. When the build gets into the getdefs
directory, things go bad ...

Making all in getdefs

getdefs.c:370: `INDEX_OPT_ASSIGN' undeclared (first use in this

... lots more of the same ...

The problem seems to be that the generated opts.h file fails to be
properly built from the opts.def file - all the "flag" pieces
don't make it into the header file. I'm not sure what's happening
here. The last version I've been able to build was 5.3.5, BTW.
Is this problem happening elsewhere? Any ideas on how to fix
this?
