Yes, but a couple of issues on HP-UX are still pending; and some for w32.
I'll probably attack them in two batches. (I'm not firm enough with
either of them without some reading and digging; and I may be waiting
for Charles and Bruno to hash out things in their current discussion
on bug-gnu-gettext aka bug-gnu-utils; thanks to Eric for the pointer!)

Not very many, luckily.

Just try CVS HEAD Autoconf; but they are not very far apart.
Be sure to read NEWS (or the 2.59c announcement), though.

Feel free, any kind of feedback is helpful. Esp. we're looking for
packages that are broken by the new Autoconf, so that unintended
incompatibilities can be fixed before the release.
Cheers,
