Thanks for all the clean-up. Since you've modified old NEWS, you'll find that "make syntax-check" fails until you reset the SHA1 of the old NEWS entries. To do that, just run "make update-NEWS-hash". That updates the SHA1 in cfg.mk. ACK, assuming "make distcheck" (which does run syntax-check) still passes.
