5764fbe873 Fix C99-ism
Old NetBSD versions don't have a C99 compiler, so get rid a C99ism for
their benefit.

03bd4a5528 Drop support for legacy -config scripts
We used to call gnome-config, gtk-config, glib-config and so on, which
was useful in the beginning of pkg-config.  This hasn't served any
practical purpose in recent years, so drop the support.

2b86e9b466 Add some []s before dnl
Autoconf 2.66 has some problems with missing []s before dnls, causing
the expanded text to be garbled.

Fixes #29056

f76fe52575 Force generation of libtool script so it can be used reliably
We want to use the libtool script to determine if indirect dependencies
should be listed. LT_OUTPUT forces the script to be created immediately
so that the test can be run reliably.

This is borrowed from glib's configure.in.

a465eacaf6 Add test to exercise broken command option handling
The ancient bundled popt mishandles some cases of option parsing.

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pkg-config/2010-March/000508.html

Add a test program to exercise it. This should encourage people to use
an external popt until we have a better fix.

68763c08de Build pkg-config before descending to check directory
To ensure that pkg-config has been built and updated before running the
test suite, complete the top directory before descending to the check
directory.

84e4847c06 Greatly simplify autogen.sh and fix configure skipping
There is really no reason to manually vet and run all the autotools.
That's what autoreconf is for. It has the added bonus that it will
descend to the glib subdirectory and rebuild the autotools there. The
handling of configure is also fixed as the previous --no-configure code
was completely broken.

This is basically the xorg autogen.sh, so we can be pretty confident
it'll work as advertised.

6a27c57057 Handle empty valued fields with newer external popt
The bundled popt handled the case of Cflags or Libs with no value, but
newer popt linked through --with-installed-popt chokes parsing it into
a vector. This is arguably a popt bug in poptParseArgvString, but I
guess they expect you not to ask it to split an empty string.

376d42b004 Add COPYING files to give general licensing terms
In order to avoid having the COPYING file from automake included in
the distribution, add a copy of the GPLv2 for pkg-config. This matches
the source files, which all specify GPLv2+.

The COPYING file from upstream popt has also been added for the
bundled popt sources.

a048ace79e Optionally use an external popt library
The one imported into pkg-config has seen very little maintenance, so
let's give users the option to use the upstream version. The default is
to use the included sources, but it can search for the system library
using --with-installed-popt.
