63b42fa235 Convert GNU make to use the gnulib portability library
Move content from glob/* and config/* into standard GNU directory
locations lib/* and m4/*.

Install the gnulib bootstrap script and its configuration file, and
create a bootstrap.bat file for Windows.  Update the README.git file
with new requirements and instructions for building from Git.

At this point we only install the alloca, getloadavg, and FDL modules
from gnulib.  We keep our old glob/fnmatch implementation since the
gnulib versions require significant amounts of infrastructure which
doesn't exist on Windows yet.  Further work is required here.

Due to a problem with gnulib's version of getloadavg, we need to bump
the minimum required version of automake to 1.16.1 unfortunately.

* README.git: Update instructions

* configure.ac: Update for use with gnulib modules

* bootstrap: Bootstrap from Git workspace (import from gnulib)
* bootstrap.conf: Bootstrap configuration for GNU make
* bootstrap.bat: Bootstrap from Git workspace for Windows
* gl/modules/make-glob: Support our local fnmatch/glob implementation

* config/acinclude.m4: Move to m4/
* config/dospaths.m4: Move to m4/
* glob/fnmatch.c: Move to lib/
* glob/fnmatch.h.in: Move to lib/
* glob/glob.c: Move to lib/

* Makefile.am: Update for new directories
* build.template: Update for new directories

* mk/Posix.mk.in: Update for new directories
* mk/VMS.mk: Update for new directories
* mk/Windows32.mk: Update for new directories

aa44e66c8f Remove unsupported build facilities.
Over time the non-standard build and install systems (nmake files,
smake files, Visual Studio project files, etc.) have atrophied and
maintaining them is not worth the effort, for such a simple utility
as make.  Remove all the non-standard build tool support and unify
OS-specific build rules under a basic set of (GNU make) makefiles.

Preserve the existing bootstrapping scripts (for POSIX, Windows,
and MS-DOS).  Also the existing VMS build scripts are left unchanged:
I don't have enough experience with VMS to venture into this area.
Perhaps one of the VMS maintainers might like to determine whether
conversion would be appropriate.

Rather than create libraries for w32 and glob (non-POSIX), simply
link the object files directly to remove the complexity.

* NEWS: Update with user-facing notes.
* Makefile.am: Clean up to use the latest automake best practices.
Build Windows code directly from the root makefile to avoid recursion.
* README.Amiga, README.DOS.template, README.W32.template: Updated.
* INSTALL: Point readers at the README.git file.
* maintMakefile: Remove obsolete files.  Create Basic.mk file.
* Basic.mk.template, mk/*.mk: Create basic GNU make-based makefiles.
* build_w32.bat: Copy Basic.mk to Makefile
* configure.ac: We no longer need AM_PROG_AR.
* dosbuild.bat: Rename to builddos.bat.  Incorporate configure.bat.
* Makefile.DOS.template: Remove.
* NMakefile.template, w32/subproc/NMakefile: Remove.
* SMakefile.template, glob/SMakefile, glob/SCOPTIONS, make.lnk: Remove.
* configure.bat, glob/configure.bat: Remove.
* w32/Makefile.am: Remove.
* make_msvc_net2003.sln, make_msvc_net2003.vcproj: Remove.

4792e154b6 Convert to auto-generated ChangeLog files.
Rename existing ChangeLog files so they won't be distributed.
Add targets to maintMakefile to generate ChangeLog from the Git
repository.  This will require a version of gnulib be available.
Because ChangeLog is auto-generated, we have to switch our
automake mode to "foreign" or it will complain and fail.

5058a94ee7 Expand the loadable object support.
Provide a simple API for loaded objects to interact with GNU make.  I still
won't guarantee that this API won't change but it's much closer to something
that's supported and provides easy-to-use interfaces with a public header
file.
