-This subdirectory contains infrastructure which is not put into
-installed libraries, but may be linked into programs (installed or
-not) and tests.

-# Error-checking wrappers
-
-These wrappers test for error return codes an terminate the process on
-error. They are declared in these header files:
-
-* support.h
-* xsignal.h
-* xthread.h
-
-In general, new wrappers should be added to support.h if possible.
-However, support.h must remain fully compatible with C90 and therefore
-cannot include headers which use identifers not reserved in C90. If
-the wrappers need additional types, additional headers such as
-signal.h need to be introduced.
-
-# Test framework
-
-The test framework provides a main program for tests, including a
-timeout for hanging tests. See README-testing.c for a minimal
-example, and test-driver.c for details how to use it. The following
-header files provide related declarations:
-
-* check.h
-* temp_file.h
-* test-driver.h
