That makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. No there hasn't been a release yet. My original reason for updating Gnulib there was build errors that were fixed in a subsequent commit [1]. That also involved updating the argument list to 'execute'. > In other words: Each backward-incompatible change (-> mentioned in the > NEWS file) can trigger problems.
