Thanks for following up on this.  Let me know if you think there is
something I can do to help.

OK, I will make an effort to find all the FAQ patches and do some work
on that.

OK, please check this in.

I've merged the changes from the branch.  After updating, you will
need to at least run config.status in the top-level and scripts
directories.
