Hi,
   sorry for the delay with this reply but I've seen this message only

hmmm, there's a "delivery" option in gnu mailman IIRC; maybe in your
case is set to disabled?
Or maybe GNU mailman is "smart" and considers your mail address as
not-real (given it's very uncommon/strange!!).

ouch!!! You're right. I've got VS2008 format enabled in my wxCode repo
but never checked it actually!!
Sorry for the misunderstaing; it's my fault. I've committed it now.

Actually I also found out that I'm using the wx presets updated to
wx29 which are a bit different from those in wxCode/build currently
(which are aimed at wx28). I won't commit the updated presets however
but I should inform all wxCode developers that current wxCode presets
should be used only with WX_VERSION=28 (maybe in some cases they work
also with wx29 but I'm not sure)...

As a side note, wx29 officially suggests to not use any macro around
strings. This improves the code readability. But if you want to update
the code you can just replace wxT() with wxS() which gives the best
performances.

this is strange... it seems to run fine here (I've got aclocal 1.11.1).
Which version of aclocal do you have?
Are you sure your acregen.sh is using the correct newlines (CR only, not CRLF)?
Maybe you can try to simply replace lines 35 and 36 with:

relok=$(($aclocal_maj == $aclocal_minimal_maj && $aclocal_min ==
$aclocal_minimal_min && $aclocal_rel >= $aclocal_minimal_rel))

(i.e. everything on the same line)....

HTH,
Francesco
