OK.  I've pushed the patches now in Luc's name, and added everyone to
THANKS.  Hope that's OK for everyone.  Thanks.

Not yet.  What you can do is try the git tree.  For that, ensure you
have a fairly recent Autoconf + Automake installed, then:

git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf.git
cd autoconf
autoreconf -vim
make check TESTSUITEFLAGS='-v -d -k AC_F[7C].* -k fortran'

and watch the output for any non-PASSing tests; even SKIPs can, but
don't have to, hint towards issues.  We have to be a bit conservative in
the test suite to avoid feedback noise.  In order to test specific
compilers, pass values for CC=..., F77, FC in TESTSUITEFLAGS as well.

Thank you,
Ralf
