Changed File Names
------------------

   If you have an `aclocal.m4' installed with Autoconf (as opposed to
in a particular package's source directory), you must rename it to
`acsite.m4'.  Note: autoconf Invocation.

   If you distribute `install.sh' with your package, rename it to
`install-sh' so `make' builtin rules won't inadvertently create a file
called `install' from it.  `AC_PROG_INSTALL' looks for the script under
both names, but it is best to use the new name.

   If you were using `config.h.top', `config.h.bot', or `acconfig.h',
you still can, but you will have less clutter if you use the `AH_'
macros.  Note: Autoheader Macros.
