For your information: I'm getting more reluctant to approve your
patches, based on how much I expect we have to fix regressions stemming
from them later on, when you are not present.

Please state if and how you tested your patches, each by itself or only
all in conjunction?  On what system(s)?  Did you use GNU tools in $PATH
or maybe ensure they are not found while testing?  Anything unusual in
your environment setup?  Do you try different versions of relevant tools
(autoconf, git)?  Whenever making things more complex rather than
simpler, do you have a rationale for doing so (besides "that looked like
a cool thing to try out")?


Why do you post FYI commit emails without patches in them, and without
non-patch content over what gets auto-posted to the libtool-commit list?

Thanks,
Ralf
