Feel free to submit a patch to doc/build-automation.texi that references

I gave a shot at patching the documentation. The new version is at:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/gnulib.html#Building-gnulib
I did find one thing that's not in DEPENDENCIES: Perl. I don't know what
Perl version we're assuming, though.
Looks good for me to continue on.
I have perl 5.20 installed, and can easily upgrade to perl 5.24 if needed.
Perl on VMS currently supports shebangs in scripts. With out that, it
assumes that it running the DCL interpreter, not bash.
I have --create-testdir run and am now going to see how much of
do-autobuild works on VMS.
Thanks,
