On AIX, one can compile applications either in 32bit or 64bit.
With GCC, this is done by using: -maix64 or -maix32 (default).
Thus, when building & testing Swig in 64bit, the -maix64 option must be
passed to all calls to gcc.

As discussed and agreed in #1629, it's become hard to test with Perl
5.6 or earlier, such old versions are no longer in active use, and
4.1.0 is an appropriate time to make such a change.
I've dropped the compatibility code that was obvious to me, but there's
probably more that can be cleaned up now.
Use the overridden CC and CXX compiles when linking
when overriding at make time.
Previously the following would use CC and CXX specified at
configure time when linking:
make CC=gcc-11 CXX=g++-11
Remove replacement code added in by autoupdate.
Go with recommendation to unconditionally include C headers
(which we have been doing all along).
Minimum autoconf version can be restored back to what it was.
We do need AC_PROG_EGREP - used by AC_EGREP_CPP
Previously if the compiler was detected to support c++11,
-std=c++11 was set preventing c++17 code from being properly tested.
Now c++14 and c++17 support is looked for and the -std flag is
appropriately set to the compiler's maximum supported version.
All Python examples and tests have been written to be both Python 2 and Python 3
compatible, removing the need for 2to3 to run the examples or test-suite.
The 2to3 executable is not always available and even when available does not
always work, e.g. with pyenv. An alternative would be to use the lib2to3 Python
module instead, but this isn't available in some older versions of Python 3.
I had this problem on Ubuntu Bionic on Travis:
checking Examples/python/callback
pyenv: 2to3-3.8: command not found
The `2to3-3.8' command exists in these Python versions:
3.8
3.8.1

AC_CHECK_PROGS will find the tool using exactly the name given: it
only searches for "pkg-config". When doing native builds, this is
generally fine. However, when cross-compiling, this is not ideal
as `pkg-config` is often configured for the build system, not the
system we want to cross-compile for.
Switch to using the AC_PATH_TOOL tool instead. This will look for
"pkg-config" with a $host- prefix first before falling back to the
plain "pkg-config". When doing native builds, things should still
behave the same, but now things work better out of the box when we
cross-compile.
For example, `./configure --host=aarch64-linux-gnu` will first look
for "aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config" before falling back to the plain
"pkg-config".
Using `-isystem` flag causes compilation errors with GCC10.
Replace it with `-I` flag.

- As of Octave 5.1.0, mkoctfile no longer works with 'env -'
(no environment), so need to pass at least PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH for it to work.
- Still need to clear environment so that it doesn't override
mkoctfile defined variables, e.g. CXXFLAGS.
No real changes, just use simpler quoting construct which is sufficient
(as we don't need to expand any variables) and also happens not to break
Vim 8 syntax highlighting in the entire file, unlike double quotes.
Check Java version in configure and define SKIP_DOXYGEN_TEST_CASES if
it's less than 9, which is required by the new implementation of
CommentParser used in the Doxygen tests.
In particular, do not use com.sun.javadoc deprecated since Java 9 and
finally removed in Java 13, to allow the tests to run under modern JRE.
They don't run under Java 8 and earlier any more, but this shouldn't be
a huge problem nowadays and as SWIG output is independent from the Java
version used, it's enough to test it with modern Java versions.
Note that the tests themselves were changed only in the most minimal
way, to adapt them to the new way of running javadoc (which is now also
integrated into CommentParser itself instead of being duplicated in
every test).
Clean up to disable target languages that have been neglected/not functional.
Target language be fully deleted in SWIG 4.1 unless a new maintainer brings
it up to an acceptable status (experimental or supported).
