From 4335de1dfb7d2ec728427e07a54136b94a2d40f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: libool.m4: add ARFLAGS variable
Libtool has used $AR_FLAGS since 2000-05-29 commit
8300de4c54e6f04f0d, Automake ARFLAGS since 2003-04-06 commit
a71b3490639831ca. Even though ARFLAGS is younger, it sounds like
better name according GNU Coding Standards.
Related to bug#20082.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Copy ARFLAGS value into AR_FLAGS
variable if AR_FLAGS is not set. Add new _LT_DECL'ed variable
'lt_ar_flags' to keep the configure-time value of AR_FLAGS. The
new 'lt_ar_flags' is to be used as the default value for AR_FLAGS
at libtool-runtime.
* NEWS: Document.
