[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify autoconf-archive-2012.09.08.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 99089D72

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
  Autoconf 2.69
  Automake 1.12.2
  Gnulib v0.0-7615-gd8d412c

NEWS

* Noteworthy changes in release 2012.09.08 (2012-09-08) [stable]

  AX_BLAS has been extended to detect the Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL). See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7807> for further details.

  Several bugs and inconsistencies in AX_TRY_RUN_JAVA, AX_PROG_JAVA_WORKS,
  AX_CHECK_CLASS, and AX_PROG_JAVA have been fixed. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7835> for further details.

  AX_INCLUDE_STRCASECMP has been added. The macro detects which header file
  defines the strcasecmp() function. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7836>
  for further details.

  AX_LIB_ORACLE_OCCI has been added. The macro detects the availability of the
  Oracle OCCI API of particular version or newer. Further details can be found
  at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7834>.

  AX_CHECK_POSTGRES_DB has been substantially re-written. The default behavior
  is unchanged, but there are two new (optional) arguments ACTION-IF-FOUND and
  ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7832> for further
  details.

  AX_CXX_RVALUE_REFERENCES has been added. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7833> for further details.

  AX_BLAS has been extended to support for the (free-software, BSD-licensed)
  OpenBLAS library, a descendant of GotoBLAS
  <http://xianyi.github.com/OpenBLAS/>. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7828> for further details.

  The reliability of AX_BOOST_SYSTEM and AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM has been improved.
  See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7816> for further details.

  The new entry AX_ZONEINFO has been added. Further details are available at
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?7814>.

  AX_CHECK_ZLIB has been updated significantly:

   - The behavior was changed so that the macro proceeds to compile and link
     tests even if zlib.h was not found in the "usual locations".

   - The macro interface has been extend to the typical ([action-if-found],
     [action-if-not-found])-style.

   - Previous versions used to search zlib in "usual locations" only if
     --with-zlib was provided [by user]. Now, the macro performs that search in
     default mode, too.

  See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-archive-maintainers/2012-0...>
  for further details.

  The new macro AX_PRINTF_SIZE_T has been added which can be used to check for
  the appropriate printf() format string modifier to use with a size_t
  argument. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7787> for further details.

  A bug has been fixed in the Intel MKL library test of AX_BLAS. See
  <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7770> for further details.

  AX_BOOST_SERIALIZATION has been improved to support for MacOS/BSD sed.
  Further details can be found at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7768>.
