  23. Old Macro Names
  24. ***************
  25.    In version 2 of Autoconf, most of the macros were renamed to use a
  26. more uniform and descriptive naming scheme.  Here are the old names of
  27. the macros that were renamed, followed by the current names of those
  28. macros.  Although the old names are still accepted by the `autoconf'
  29. program for backward compatibility, the old names are considered
  30. obsolete.  *Note Macro Names::, for a description of the new naming
  31. scheme.
