Applied (with a small adjustment -- we cannot safely assume `set -u`
works, not even in a script that only Autoconf hackers will use).
Thank you.

Note that we do not use Signed-off-by.  If you plan to keep working on
this project (which I certainly hope you will) you will need to file a
copyright assignment with the FSF.  Instructions for that can be found
at <https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/doc/Copyright/request-assign.future>.
