    * README: reflect renaming of (old) Makefile to Makefile.hand.

    * configure.in:
    * Makefile.in:
    Apply patches from Niels Kristian Bech Jensen ([e-mail])
    to remove version number from Makefile.in and configure.in, and
    to avoid duplicate setting of "-ansi" flag.
    * Makefile.hand:
    Rename Makefile to Makefile.hand so by default there is no
    file named Makefile, as it is generated by running ./configure.

    needed signatures from the library files. This simplifies code
    generation for string concatenation, etc.

    Add code to special case ++ to use IINC where possible.

    Fix a few bugs.

    * configure.in:
    * configure:
    Applied patch from Moses DeJong:

Moses DeJong <[e-mail]> on 07/27/99 03:57:26 PM
To:   [e-mail]
Subject:  [jikes-bugs] Bug in Jikes configure.in script

It looks like the --with-gas option defined in the configure.in script
should not be included. It would only work on a MIPS system and there
is no working gnu assembler on mips right now so there is no reason
to keep the --with-gas option in the configure.in file. This patch
removes the unneeded option. The g++ compiler does not even accept
-mgas as a valid option so if someone gave the --with-gas option
then jikes would not compile (only the gcc compiler accepts it).

    Add patch from Larry Gensch ([e-mail]) who wrote:

    From: [e-mail]
    Reply-To: [e-mail]
    Subject: Patch for jikes to auto-determine -DTYPE_bool
    To: [e-mail]


    I've added a test in your configure.in script in jikes-052 to
    auto-detect the presense of the "bool" keyword (ANSI C++).  This was
    necessary for me to get Jikes to compile on Compaq Tru64 Unix
    (prerelease 5.0) with Digital C++ (prerelease 6.2).  What I have done
    here is simply create a one-line test program:

         bool some_boolean_value = true;

         And see if the compile is successful or unsuccessful, setting the
         CCREQUIREDFLAGS variable appropriately.

         Thus, I can use:

              CXX=cxx ./configure

          This should work with other platforms supporting the "bool" keyword as
          well, as there is nothing really Compaq-specific in the test that I
          have added.

          Feel free to incorporate this into a future release of Jikes.

      to release RPMs of jikes for RedHat 4.2 and earlier linux systems.
