FWIW, I haven't looked at the patch in detail, but it's ok with me if we warn about literal newlines, even if we don't for non-literal ones (passed through a shell variable with AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED), as long as we don't advertise this safeguard. So please go ahead. [...] > * THANKS: Update. What changed in THANKS? Cheers, Ralf
