Hi Raja,

Thanks for fixing this.

Someone started to apply unapproved patches on Autoconf CVS a
few days ago, so maybe this is the occasion to recall the
process here too.

The procedure is that people send their diff here and wait for
someone (Akim, Tom, me) to agree before they commit it.  Even
those who were allowed to apply patches without waiting will
*post the diff* as an FYI so it can be post-reviewed by anyone.

This said, I've looked at the change and it's wrong.  We don't
use `sleep 2' anymore in the test suite, `make maintainer-check'
will complain and like test/README it will tell you to use
`$sleep' instead.

Could you fix this and apply that to branch-1-7 too ?
