GNU Autoconf 2.71 Release

Published package release GNU Autoconf 2.71 , which provides a set of M4 macros for creating autoconfiguration scripts for building applications on various Unix-like systems (the “configure” script is generated based on the prepared template) .

The new version resolves several compatibility issues that surfaced in Autoconf 2.70. In particular, compatibility with old versions of std-gnu11.m4 and automake rules for regenerating the configure script has been restored. Improved compatibility with the Clang and Oracle C ++ compilers. Provided the correct definition of compilers that support the C99 standard but not C2011.
