* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Programs, Limitations of Usual Tools):
Use better wording to talk about AC_PROG_MKDIR_P's thread-safety.
Don't use the term "thread-safe" to talk about mkdir race
conditions, since the problem is more a process than a thread
issue. Problem reported by Stepan Kasal in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2006-05/msg00088.html
* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (AC_PROG_MKDIR_P): Use code that mimics
the test for 'install' more closely. Look at MKDIR_P first.
Look in the PATH, and at /opt/sfw/bin.
Look for a 'gmkdir' program as well (Solaris 10 /opt/sfw/bin/gmkdir).
Don't bother to try mkdir -p, since we already check mkdir --version;
just look at the version number. (There's no easy way to check
for race-free implementations.)
* tests/tools.at (autoconf: subdirectories): Adjust to above
changes, since MKDIR_P now might end in "/mkdir -p".
