The AC_TYPE_SIGNAL macro defined the RETSIGTYPE based on the signal
type defined in the signal.h. On pre C89 sistems (K&R C) it could be
void or int. Since C89 it can be safely assumed that the signal and
therefore the RETSIGTYPE is always void, so the RETSIGTYPE can be
replaced with void in the code if it uses it. PHP doesn't use the
RETSIGTYPE in current code anyway.

Autoconf 2.50 made several changes to macro calls. These include also
arguments passed to AC_OUTPUT macro. The upgrading chapter in Autoconf
documentation include an example of using AC_OUTPUT with
AC_CONFIG_FILES and AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS:

PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+, PHP 7.2+ require Autoconf 2.64+,
and PHP 7.2 phpize script requires Autoconf 2.59+ which are all greater
than above mentioned 2.50 version. Systems out there should well support
this by now.
This patch was created with the help of autoupdate script:
autoupdate <file>

Some editors utilizing .editorconfig automatically trim whitespaces. For
convenience this patch removes whitespaces in certain build files in
Zend and TSRM folders.
Autoconf 2.50 released in 2001 has made several macros obsolete. Instead
of the AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE and AC_STRUCT_ST_RDEV the new
AC_CHECK_MEMBERS should be used.
When checking for the presence of stat struct members st_blkzize and
st_rdev the new AC_CHECK_MEMBERS macro defines new constants
HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE and HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_RDEV.
Old constants HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE and HAVE_ST_RDEV need to be replaced
respectively in PHP code (this patch) and in PHP extenstions if they use
them.
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.
Since PHP 5.3 flex lexer has been replaced with re2c. Commit
0f9e2b1753 made PHP_PROG_LEX macro still
available for BC.
In commit df6bd506d4 it was updated. Since
this macro is entirely not used in PHP source code anymore from PHP 5.3
and up, this patch removes it together with some old traces of warnings
suppression and comments.
Some editors utilizing .editorconfig automatically trim whitespaces. For
convenience this patch removes whitespaces in certain build files:
- ext/*/config*.m4
- configure.ac
- acinclude.m4
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.
