I think the answer is, all those configures you ran you thought were
testing stuff, weren't.  Unless you set PATH_SEPARATOR=":".

No that test was just too complicated and it would only succeed
in the (unlikely) event that your path_separator was ";".  Nowhere
does it set path_separator to ':'since =: is not equivalent to =':'.
Earlier configures had a more pedestrian approach. The problem is the
AC_INIT macro, I believe.
