No, it's not.  There's still a bug (causing regression) due to some 
dark corners in Perl handling of `$1' across statements (ouch!).  The 
new bug triggers only when libtool objects are involved, so I didn't
notice it right away (I've noticed it now because I was re-running the 
full testsuite).  I will post an updated patch soonish, with enahnced 
test cases to guard against this regression.  BTW, I prefer to keep 
the refactoring of new code into a new function for a follow-up patch 
(not a squash-in), but I'll address your remarks about typos and too 
long comments.

Sorry for the inconvenient,
  Stefano
