Would you mind adding these projects to the 'users' file? From that file, I was under the impression that every gnulib user now uses gnulib-tool. > it seems that > these changes binds source code in gnulib even harder to gnulib-tool. You have a point. I'll back out the change to gnulib-tool. What remains is only the common naming convention of these macros (not _LGPL_PACKAGE here and others there). Instead I'll add an m4 macro GL_MODULE_INDICATOR that does the AC_DEFINE and that can be used in each configure.ac section of a module. Bruno
