The definition of GLIBCXX_ENABLE has some quoting problems which results
in square brackets around optional arguments in the help text being lost
during autoconf processing.

OK?

Andreas.

2010-09-30  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@redhat.com>

	* acinclude.m4 (GLIBCXX_ENABLE): Properly quote argument to
	AC_HELP_STRING.  Double quote expansion of _g_help.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_LIBSTDCXX_TIME): Double quote third argument of
	GLIBCXX_ENABLE.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_CHEADERS): Likewise.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_CLOCALE): Likewise.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_ALLOCATOR): Likewise.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_CSTDIO): Likewise.
	(GLIBCXX_ENABLE_SYMVERS): Likewise.
	* configure: Regenerate.

I would say yes right away, but please wait just a few hours in case
Ralf has comments.

Thanks a lot,
Paolo.

I can't approve this, and the patch looks right, but ...

... why move away from quadrigraphs?  They are the most robust spelling
wrt. quoting.  Ah, ok, Autoconf 2.64 m4_text_wrap still treated them as
four not one characters, so alignment is wrong; but this has been fixed
in newer Autoconf.  FWIW, I intend to propose moving GCC to 2.68 for
4.6.

Cheers,
Ralf

I find them less readable and prefer the real characters as long as they
properly pair.

Andreas.

Andreas, the patch is OK as-is then.

Thanks again,
