* README (Copyright statements): New section explaining the range
notation. The GNU coding standards require this explanation. I
copied ours from coreutils.
* build-aux/update-b4-copyright: Revert 2010-06-17 changes that
disabled Bison's automated use of ranges.
* cfg.mk (update-copyright-env): Likewise.
* HACKING (Release Procedure): Update notes on copyright years.
* Makefile.am (update-package-copyright-year): New target rule.
* build-aux/update-package-copyright-year: New file.
* cfg.mk (update-copyright): Add update-package-copyright-year
as a dependency.
(cherry picked from commit af8a609a90)
* gnulib: Update.
* .x-update-copyright (COPYING): Add as it's no longer implied
when .x-update-copyright is present.
* cfg.mk (update-copyright-local): Remove, now ignored.
(update-copyright): Declare update-b4-copyright as a dependency.
* build-aux/update-b4-copyright: In warnings, report line
numbers rather than character positions.
* cfg.mk (update-copyright-local): Set to update-b4-copyright so
that update-copyright runs it.
* gnulib: Update.
* HACKING (Administrivia): Make the git-merge-changelog notes more
helpful.
(Test suite): Don't say lalr1.cc is not exercised in the test suite.
(Release Procedure): Update for git and add numerous details that were
previously missing.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove Makefile.cfg and Makefile.maint.
* maint.mk (announcement): Don't list bison as a bootstrap tool so
that announcements don't claim we bootstrapped with whatever bison
happened to be in PATH. Add flex as a bootstrap tool.
* Makefile.maint: Remove, previously replaced by maint.mk.
* Makefile.cfg: Remove, and migrate settings to...
* cfg.mk: ... here for the sake of `make announcement'.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add announce-gen.
* README: Say GNU Bison instead of just Bison. Suggested by Karl
Berry.
