Go through both run_make_tests.pl and test_driver.pl and slightly
modernize the Perl and clean up indentation etc. Fix a number of
warnings in the test scripts detected by running with -w.
* tests/test_driver.pl: Move make error string detection out of the
base test driver.
(run_all_tests): Ensure that we always look for tests in the cwd.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Use File::Spec for path manipulations.
Correctly use setlocale() when detecting error strings.
Get configuration from the config-flags.pm file not config.status.
* tests/scripts/features/archives: Use new $cwddir variable.
* tests/scripts/features/reinvoke: Add missing semicolon.
* tests/scripts/features/vpath2: Avoid non-existent variable.
* tests/scripts/functions/foreach: Escape variables.
* tests/scripts/misc/bs-nl: Remove non-existing \v escape sequence.
* tests/scripts/misc/general4: Use handy create_file().
* tests/scripts/options/dash-C: Use Cwd/$cwddir.
* tests/scripts/options/dash-I: Use subst_make_string() and #PWD#.
* tests/scripts/options/symlinks: Use File::Spec.
* tests/scripts/targets/DEFAULT: Use create_file and run_make_test.
* tests/scripts/variables/CURDIR: Use run_make_test.
* tests/scripts/variables/automatic: Remove extraneous "\".
* tests/scripts/vms/library: Remove extra "my" and extraneous "\".
* tests/scripts/features/jobserver: Windows doesn't use pipes
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Don't test kill -2 on Windows
* tests/scripts/misc/bs-nl: Windows doesn't handle single quotes
* tests/scripts/misc/general3: Ditto.
* makeint.h: Change MAP_SPACE to MAP_NEWLINE, and add MAP_PATHSEP
and MAP_SPACE which is now MAP_BLANK|MAP_NEWLINE. Create
NEW_TOKEN(), END_OF_TOKEN(), ISBLANK(), ISSPACE() macros.
* main.c (initialize_stopchar_map): Set MAP_NEWLINE only for
newline characters.
* Convert all uses of isblank() and isspace() to macros.
* Examine all uses of isblank() (doesn't accept newlines) and
change them wherever possible to ISSPACE() (does accept newlines).
* function.c (func_foreach): Strip leading/trailing space.
* variable.c (parse_variable_definition): Clean up.
* tests/scripts/functions/foreach: Test settings and errors.
* tests/scripts/functions/call: Rewrite to new-style.
* tests/scripts/misc/bs-nl: Add many more tests for newlines.
We fixed Savannah 16670 but that broke previously-working makefiles
that relied on the GNU make behavior. The POSIX behavior doesn't
seem to me to be better, and can be obtained using GNU make as well,
so put it back as the default behavior and require .POSIX to
get the POSIX behavior.
Add a new section to the manual discussing backslash/newline handling.
Update the test suite.
