I think I'd happily take 1, 2, 5 and 6, but 3 and 4 really needs to be redone, mentioning every option just once, not twice as it is done now. After that's done, it might be not necessary anymore for 3 at all. Or I can wait for a resend of whole series. Or alternatively I can try to rework it myself, but for now I'm quite busy so can't promise anything. Please note that major tweaks in ./configure will most likely conflict with modules support series which has been posted for revew again. What should I do? Thanks, /mjt
