Yes. In general, any developer ``brave enough'' can commit changes to
configure.in. Just post them first for comment.

Can you just check that you're using the BINUTILS 000227 autoconf. I'm
asking as I noticed:

which has me puzzled. I suspect it might just be that config.in is
out-of-datem dig dig. Yep :-/
