Hmm - true; as long as this is clearly stated in the docs, that would
be just fine.  We may even want to enforce this (by giving an error if
one of the paths given is absolute).

My psychic powers must be failing me... :]

So I guess doing a tr ':' $pathsep on AUTOTEST_PATH would be OK; though
we'd probably want to make it conditional in case some tr's don't
support identity translations:

test "$ac_path_separator" = ":" ||
  AUTOTEST_PATH=`echo $AUTOTEST_PATH | tr ':' $ac_path_separator`
