No problem, I don't think they are that touchy ;-)

Yes, but you explained that it was because those patches would require 
quite an extensive testing on different platforms/shells, and this 
can't be currently provided by the Automake community.  Anyway, if the 
situation will change and you'll start planning to apply them, please 
let me know, because they are now in a dire need of a rebasing and a 
fair amount of tweaking/amending.

You mean the `check-list-of-tests' stuff, right?  I remember this was a 
more controversial issue, and the discussion regarding it sorta faded 
away.  Let me know if you want to resume it (when and if you'll have 
more time, of course).

Right.

Do you mean for ksh?  If it's so, right.

To summarise, I don't see any other stuff by me pending apart from that 
you've listed here.
