>From autoconf 2.70 onwards, obsolescence warnings are enabled by default.
Recently I have fixed all the warnings we were getting, except for:
1. With autoconf 2.70 we get a warning about our use of AC_PROG_LEX;
this cannot be avoided while preserving support for autoconf 2.69
2. Warnings about escaping of quotes and double quotes, like:
warning: back quotes and double quotes must not be escaped in:
$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: WARNING: cannot find a working \`mkfifo' or \`mknod'
I haven't (yet) found a way to avoid this warning and get a configure
script that works :-( Suggestions welcome.
-------------
Do not warn about obsolete autoconf macros.
prepare.sh:
As above.
