Yes. The changes are ok if you split the patch into one purely without semantic changes, and the rest (so that we don't need to revert the former when the latter turns out to be bad); and for setting the PATH separator, please use the code from Autoconf. Bonus points for lower-casing the first words in error messages and prepending (pre-set) `$me: '. ;-) Thanks, Ralf
