Hmm. I'd have written s/validates/exercises/, but that's really me being super nitpicky. FWIW, even though the Autoconf test suite is pretty large already, there are lots of bits that are not validated, for example several error paths or unusual code path combinations; also, nowhere do we ensure that our tests really produce the answers that users expect on their particular system. That's not to say that I want to start doing this; a table of such answers would go right against the spirit of Autoconf. Just my two cents. Cheers, Ralf
