I'm sure it's nobody's fault. I was just trying to keep some activity
going.

Cool. I'll merge in my smaller changes (everything except autoconf).
Then if Jonathan has time to update his either he or I can merge them.
Then I'll merge the autoconf stuff. Although I don't think it really
matters if autoconf is merged before diffopt, if I remember right there
was only one or two minor conflicts.

If we get everything else merged and tested then there's only the win32
stuff left. That should make it less scary for starters. Hopefully with
autoconf some of that will be rather easier anyway, and I can work with
Nick to get it all merged. I don't have any windows machines though, so
I'd need his input for sure.

Cheers,

Martin.
