OK. Fixed.

OK. Fixed.

I think we should keep all the symlink resolution-related problems in one
place.

I don't think so. I seem to remember Mark E. mentioned that our linker script
is out-of-date relative to the one in binutils.

Great. I've removed that to the resolve section.

I agree with Charles here. See his mail.

Yes, they have been fixed. That bug is a marker for "some problems with the
handling of particular file descriptors". I'm not exactly sure what to do with
that bug, so I've left the Perl one there.

OK. Fixed.

I will take another look.

OK. Fixed.
BTW on your 2.04 testing page you refer to automake 2.73. There's autoconf
2.57 and automake 1.7.3, but no automake 2.73.
I've updated the status page appropriately. Thanks!
