I'd like to apply your fix ASAP (so that it can be in automake 1.11.5), but your patch complete with the test case does *not* qualify as small enough to be applied without a copyright disclaimer to the FSF. Do you have such a disclaimer already in place? If not, I'll apply only the bugfixes provided by your patch without the testcase, since such a change is small enough not to require legal paperwork. Thanks, Stefano
