      Description

        The UTIL macros have several problematic flaws that may not seem apparent initially, the worst of which include parsing commas as actual argument separators to the underlying m4 macros, and completely, but very subtly wrecking shell constructs. This should be at least partially fixed so no one receives nasty surprises when trying to use them.
