OK; but note that this message wasn't meant to hurry you: if this
change goes in automake, it's not gonna need a fast review, but rather
a careful one, even if it's slow (as is usually the case with careful
reviews).
I just thought that the feature could be a reasonable candidate for a
new branch, which BTW would have given me a first opportunity to mess
around with remote branching and pushing without touching/endangering
the master/maint branches.

Agreed.  But I think it would be a good idea anyway to edit the
ChangeLog of the [PATCH 2/6] to cite also Solaris 10 /usr/xpg4/bin/make
rather than only Heirloom make.

Yes, it's definitely possibile.  But why maint?  I'm not so sure the
change should to be considered as maintainance/bugfixing only...
