If you want to check the various failures after configure was run, you
should browse config.log, that's its point.
config.log doesn't contain the compilers failure if I remember correctly. Only
where in configure that it is.

I want to use diverts in some macros, and wonder if there is any
divert management system for reserving/freeing divert numbers in
autoconf (couldn't find any with a quick grep at least). The point
is, if other macros are using diverts too, I don't want my diverts
to clash with those diverts and

Just look for the right header on a sane system, and include it under
the condition HAVE_foo_H. It is better to AC_CHECK_HEADER

Lars I don't, yet. It was just something I was pondering on. I

Right, diversions are not that powerful, sometimes
Also, one more item. In AC_OUTPUT_FILES, there is a sed command that should be
reversed
to keep filenames with colons in them (like c:/windows) from being affected. Would
there be any adverse affects to the output if the colon replacement were done first?

Akim, I checked today and found out that there have been updates to the
autoconf cvs. When will the cvs-commit mailing list move to the new site so
we can get notified immediately?
I just don't know. The subversions team, AFAIK, is working on it, but
there is nothing yet running.

Right. DOS can in very rare cases have drive letters outside of [A-Za-z]. So
