Definitely.  $PATH_SEPARATOR is documented in
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/File-System-Conventions.html>
and it's currently set using a feature-based test, see the macro
_AS_PATH_SEPARATOR_PREPARE in
<http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/autoconf/lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4?root=autoconf&view=markup>
So there's no need to roll your own.

Cheers,
