Atte,

Thanks. I assume (without having looked) that your ideas refer to the
standalone program and not the patch for make itself?

My problem, aside from limited time of course, is that I have no
indication yet of whether the patch is likely to be accepted into 3.83
which in turn has an effect on how much work I want to put into the
standalone solution. Paul, any chance you can provide a status update
or thumbs up/down on http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33138?
