[PATCH] maint: add a syntax-check rule to check for vulnerable Makefile.in

I've just pushed this to coreutils. I propose to move the rule to gnulib's maint.mk. Why? Just noticed that Fedora 11 is still using a vulnerable version of automake-1.11, and that some projects don't require automake-1.11.1. Any objections or suggestions? >From 1b361e21d08b2e7252f137b40419ffa0a

copyright statement

I noticed a problem in the copyright statements in gnulib when investigating why update-copyright added 2010 to 'gnupload' in GnuTLS. Most likely a problem I introduced at some point which has been cut'n'pasted a few time since then... /Simon >From ff867baa1c26bf57b30e0fcab2181421b15a1fa5 Mon Sep
