stupid question, but did you validate the licensing implications of
this particular commit?

No, not really. I'll check before the release. In the meantime, it's in
SVN, which should be OK.

Not sure if this may be relevant:

http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Distributing

PS. This same revision was backported to 1.4.x as well by Jim. So, if we
release 1.4.x before 1.3.x, same thing applies.

PPS. Is this what we are looking for (example from ltmain.sh distributed
with apr-1.3.3):
-----------------------
# As a special exception to the GNU General Public License, if you
# distribute this file as part of a program that contains a
# configuration script generated by Autoconf, you may include it under
# the same distribution terms that you use for the rest of that program.

No, but I'm just checking; this step absorbs local files... ergo
the finished bundle doesn't resemble svn.  Trunk is svn.  We tolerate
transitory GPL licenses in our build process.  But did you check what
this step now absorbs into the finished package?

Not sure what you mean. Is our trunk licensed differently than 1.3.x?
