It's an old approach, by Paul, for allowing applications to see which gnulib modules they need. In all other places, we now use the GNULIB_POSIXCHECK idiom, by Eric. But we haven't yet rewritten m4/time_h.m4 and lib/time.in.h to follow these newer idioms. Bruno -- In memoriam Paul Richter <http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Richter_(Pfarrer)>
