Sorry if I brought up this argument again.

I received Christina's message late, and I didn't look at its sending 
date (my bad here), which definitely precedes the end of the discussion 
on bug-autoconf.  Also, I missed Ralf's finall decision stated on that 
list (as it wasn't reported on automake-patches too).  Add my strong 
dislike for the gender-neutral-singular "their", and you can see why
I answered with a message that might seem bitter or polemic.  That
was not my intention; I hope that's clear now.

Also, I'm fine with Ralf's decision to use the simplest gender-neutral 
alternative, namely, speaking to and about "you", the user, or "you", 
the developer.

Regards,
    Stefano
