Definitely. $PATH_SEPARATOR is documented in <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/File-System-Conventions.html> and it's currently set using a feature-based test, see the macro _AS_PATH_SEPARATOR_PREPARE in <http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/autoconf/lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4?root=autoconf&view=markup> So there's no need to roll your own.
