Yes, but I'm wondering a bit if changing the testsuite to match the actual output is the right solution here, because the actual output look strange:
Pike v7.8 release 412 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend)
string a="hej
Hilfe Error: Unterminated string ""hej\n" at line 1
I would not expect the precense of " and \n in an error message...
Granted, the error message that was there before Nilssons change also had this weirdness, but this seems like a good opportunity to improve further. :-)
Pike v7.8 release 350 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend)
string a="hej
Hilfe Error: Unterminated string: "string a="hej \n"
I'm also unsure about the "%O[%d]" style. Shouldn't there be a + sign before the bracket to match how strings are shortened in backtraces?

Using autoconf 2.65 I get an error in the Image module:

Which version of autoconf should I be using, or better yet, can someone fix this in the Pike source? I'm a total nitwit at GNU autoconf, so my own attempts at fixing it have failed miserably.

Looks like some kind of bug in autoconf itself.

Not even Gentoo regards autoconfs after 2.63 as stable, so try going back to autoconf 2.63.

Great. Autoconf already is a black art; we don't need bugs to complicate it any further.

Hmmm... Someone should tell the Debian maintainer for "testing". Then again, this might be exactly what they're looking for in "testing".
In any case, a downgrade to 2.64 seems to have done the trick (on Solaris, at least).

Indeed. The Autoconf development went sour after 2.13.
Bhelliom runs xenofarm with a bunch of diffrent autoconfs now and then just to see what the currently failing ones are. I just ran another batch, so http://pike.ida.liu.se/development/pikefarm/7.8.xml has the current status. 2.63 is a known bad version.
The problem with autoconf 2.63 seems to be:
| config.status: creating make_variables | awk: string too long near line 3 | awk: newline in string near line 3 | awk: syntax error near line 4 | awk: illegal statement near line 4 | awk: string too long near line 4 | awk: newline in string near line 4 | config.status: creating Makefile | awk: string too long near line 3 | awk: newline in string near line 3 | awk: syntax error near line 4 | awk: illegal statement near line 4 | awk: string too long near line 4 | awk: newline in string near line 4 | config.status: creating clf_machine.h
Probably a case of using GNU extensions to awk...

There still is a regression error in the (new) MIME.Message decoder, I'm currently chasing that.
Fixed.
