This gives us a few benefits:
1) make -j clean all
   this will start working, as it should. It currently doesn't.
2) increased parallel build
   recursive make will max out at number of files in a directory,
   non-recursive make doesn't have such a limitation
3) Removal of duplicate information in make files,
   less error prone

I've also slightly updated how we call AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, as the way
that was used was not only deprecated but will be *removed* in the next
major automake release (1.13).... so probably best that we can continue
to bulid tor without requiring old automake.
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Public-Macros.html )

This makes the V=1 or V=0 automake silent build options display (or hide)
the full command line used.

  GEN foo.bar

will be seen rather than the full command.

As with all automake silent rules, "make V=1" will output the full command.

Workaround for building EL5 RPMs by specifying rpmbuild-md5. Updated old note about using static libevent when building RPMs.

This is based on a pair of patches from A. Costa. I couldn't apply
those directly, since they changed the generated *roff files, not
the asciidoc source.

Fixes Tor bug 6500 and Debian bug 683359.

Test for config option AuthDirPublishIPv6 == 1 rather than for running
as a bridge authority when deciding whether to care or not about IPv6
OR ports in descriptors.

Bug 4748

squash! Document 0.2.3.x torrc/default-torrc/command line semantics changes

Incorporates fixes suggested by rransom.

The defense counts the circuit failure rate for each guard for the past N
circuits. Failure is defined as the ability to complete a first hop, but not
finish completing the circuit all the way to the exit.

If the failure rate exceeds a certain amount, a notice is emitted.

If it exceeds a greater amount, a warn is emitted and the guard is disabled.

These values are governed by consensus parameters which we intend to tune as
we perform experiments and statistical simulations.

Nearly everywhere, we end options with "(Default: foo)".  But in a
few places, we inserted an extra period after or before the close
parenthesis, and in a few other places we said "(Defaults to foo)".
Let's not do that.

This feature can make Tor relays less identifiable by their use of the
mod_ssl DH group, but at the cost of some usability (#4721) and bridge
tracing (#6087) regressions.

We should try to turn this on by default again if we find that the
mod_ssl group is uncommon and/or we move to a different DH group size
(see #6088).  Before we can do so, we need a fix for bugs #6087 and

Resolves ticket #5598 for now.

We explain the --options option, document --nt-service as an
internal-use-only thing (which it is), fix a URL, and generally
improve the prose.

Closes ticket 4572.

It is for the not-yet-implemented bridge community design.

Fixes bug 2987.  There is still some information to go, but now we
have a place to put it.

There isn't really any point to messing with it. Resolves ticket 5005.

Document ServerTransportPlugin and the managed proxy version of
ClientTransportPlugin.

PLURAL() assumes that the plural is the canonical name for the option,
so now it is.

Implements ticket #4207
