I worked on this independently and comparing the results, I have
some objections:
* We can use the .tar.lz distfile.
* MODGNU_CONFIG_GUESS_DIRS should not be removed but set to the
correct ${WRKSRC}/build-aux.
* Instead of patching tests/scripts/features/exec we can just set
TEST_ENV= SHELL=$$SHELL
and honor the intention of the test.
* "You should use this name if you have a makefile that is specific
to GNU gmake, and will not be understood by other versions of
gmake."
Uhm, no. You cannot blindly substitute all instances of "make"
with "gmake" in the man page.
* You dropped the comment at the top of patch-src_makeint_h.

A great opportunity to look into this failure!

I'll run an amd64 bulk build with it sometime in the next few days.
The "WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!" changes could break some
cruft.
