Ok, here is what I learned. For whatever reason, there are no longer and
numerical associations with the constants for icons and buttons.

So for example, the original Autoquote script used "icon = 0" as a
messagebox option, instead you have to use "icon = scribus.ICON_NONE".
Similarly, "button1 = scribus.BUTTON_OK".

I will commit the corrected version.

Unless anyone has objections, I will also add Autoquote2 which has some
enhancements.
