Wow. This is a gigantic bug that I don't see documented anywhere. "git ls-files | grep '\.c$' | xargs grep '\\x'" shows that \x is used many places in the Gnulib tests directory. Do we need to document this and avoid \x everywhere? Thank you for the comments. I will push the new modules soon. -- Ben Pfaff http://benpfaff.org
