Subject: bug#21001: Testsuite failure with new Perl
Date: Tue, 07 Jul 2015 11:36:53 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Based on build failure in Fedora 23 [1], automake has some testsuite
failures against newer perl (currently Perl v5.22).  Its because of new
Perl warning:

  $ automake
  Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex;
  marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ \t=:+{}]+)}/ at
  /usr/bin/automake line 3936.

Please consider the attached patch.
