OK to apply.  So far, I haven't yet branched (nor even checked with Jim 
whether merges are allowed on main), but all patches in place at the 
moment are good candidates for 2.68.1 this week.

If I get time to figure out the AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS issues, then 
we'll have the first case of a patch appropriate for 2.69 but not the 
maint branch, at which point I'll have to make sure the branching scheme 
is in place.
