* m4/dos.m4, m4/lstat.m4, m4/readlink.m4, m4/stat.m4, m4/symlink.m4:
New files, automatically generated from gnulib.

[src/ChangeLog]
Work around some portability problems with symlinks.
* fileio.c (Frename_file, Fmake_symbolic_link, Ffile_symlink_p):
Simplify the code by assuming that the readlink and symlink calls
exist, even if they always fail on this host.
(Ffile_readable_p): Likewise, for fifos.
* config.in: Regenerate.
