Correct, we found the situation with GCC 6 at odds with how we expected gnulib to work, and did not think it worth our time to try to fix it. We now build an internal library of wrapper functions around gnulib using the C compiler. AFAICT, no other projects are using GNULIB_NAMESPACE in the wild: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=%23+*define+*GNULIB_NAMESPACE -- mike
