That said, it now becomes a question of whether we should upgrade the 1.4.x branch of m4 to use automake (to make it MUCH easier to generate all the GCS required make targets), or to just release 1.4.5 with missing targets and wait for m4 2.0 (which has already been fully autoconfiscated) to become compliant with the GCS.
In terms of time investment, autoconfiscating branch-1_4 is no big deal really. I resisted the pressure until now simply because there has been
no obvious advantage to investing that effort. I don't mind doing it in order to get some concrete return. Now that 2.0 is at least a few months away, releasing 1.4.5 is certainly worthwhile in the near term. Before we do that, I'd like to add Make rules to automate the production of the web documention with gendoc.sh. Is there anything else that needs to be in the tree before making a 1.4.5 release?
