You do realize that your patch is a fork from glibc. So forking from gnulib is no different. I personally used the gnulib-tool --local option for m4 1.4.10; there are just some things that need to be personalized to your package beyond what the generic behavior of gnulib can provide. > >> But it's an alternative to weird Makefile hacks that would use gcc when the >> user specified g++. > > both alternatives suck big time. Why not push upstream on the glibc people, then? - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
