   Yes, that's the current status of the code, and none of the
   proposed changes should affect this.

   Of course there could be bugs in the current autoconf test -- which
   I've never tested on the Hurd -- but they should be fixable if they
   are present.

Great, then I'll just assume that it works for now. :-)

Thanks!
