Message-ID <[email protected]>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR): Have config.status
create $top_builddir/LIBOBJ_DIR by INIT-CMDS, to support out of source
builds even when nothing else does create $top_builddir/LIBOBJ_DIR.
Based on discussion in https://github.com/westes/flex/issues/244.
