Now that (a) inetutils is out, and (b) all of the automakes and 
autoconfs are updated, (c) libtool is next on my 
to-be-updated/64bit-ified list.  This includes running the test suite (a 
10-15 hour effort), and investigating/fixing the regressions.  So it is 
not a quick task.

However, I still have the ongoing issues with run/run2 to track down first.

thanks Chuck

It is not urgent for me as patching that source to
require "2.4 or higher" worked fine
;-)

just to be ready for the future

According to my notes there was only one (unexpected) failure,
namely in with-pic.at, line 40. The failure was only a testsuite
issue though and I later silenced it with commit d674eaa44
'tests: skip with-pic test when no "real" pic flag is used.'

Cheers,
Peter
