Having received one private vote in favor, and none against, I checked in this change. The patch is not interesting, but here is the ChangeLog entry: 2007-07-24 Ben Pfaff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Improve name: "count-one-bits" is better than "popcount". * MODULES.html.sh: Update name. * lib/popcount.h: Renamed lib/count-one-bits.h. (popcount): Renamed count_one_bits. (popcountl): Renamed count_one_bits_l.
