I did some testing on Debian unstable, Solaris 10, NetBSD 5.1 and Cygwin 1.5 (in
part by running the relevant test cases from the automake testsuite, in part
trying out the build system of GNU coreutils).   Everything seems fine so far.
I want to do some small improvements to the documentation, then I say we are
ready to merge the 'silent-fixes' branch into maint.
