Autoconf 2.50 released in 2001 made several macros obsolete including
the AC_TRY_RUN, AC_TRY_COMPILE and AC_TRY_LINK:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/tree/ChangeLog.2
These macros should be replaced with the current AC_FOO_IFELSE instead:
- AC_TRY_RUN with AC_RUN_IFELSE and AC_LANG_SOURCE
- AC_TRY_LINK with AC_LINK_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM
- AC_TRY_COMPILE with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM
PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+ version, PHP 7.2 and above require
2.64+ version, and the PHP 7.2 phpize script requires 2.59+ version which
are all greater than above mentioned 2.50 version therefore systems
should be well supported by now.
This patch was created with the help of autoupdate script:

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
The bundled libmbfl library is no longer API or ABI compatible with
the (currently unmaintained) upstream library. As such, building
against an external libmbfl is no longer possible.
If this does not break the Unix system somehow, I'll be amazed. This should get most of it out, apologies for any errors this may cause on non-Windows ends which I cannot test atm.
to link to the external oniguruma library.
- Prevent libmbfl files from being installed when --with-libmbfl is specified.
- Fixed mb_ereg_replace() to work with unicode strings.
. Supports various encodings such as BIG5, GB2312 and ISO-8859-*
. Fixes bug #26677 (mbstring compile errors with IRIX)
. Many thanks to K.Kosako.
- Remove redundant files that are not relevant to the build.
