How about this?
I haven't been following the re-licensing discussions closely (still
catching up), but these files seems to be used during the build phase,
and using the GPLv3 for that seems non-controversial, or?
Btw, libidn 1.0 (recently released) uses latest gnulib, and there were
no license problems. I'm doing the same exercise now with gsasl, but it
seems there are no conflicts there either.
