Hi Ben,
I am able to clone Savannah's projects via http. The general format is
http://git.sv.gnu.org/r/.git.
So,
git clone http://git.sv.gnu.org/r/gnulib.git
should work for you.
FYI, you can also browse the source via gitweb:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/
Hope this helps,
-Mike

Here's a proposed rewrite that tries to take all the comments in mind,

FWIW, this standards.texi change looked good to me. I sent it to rms.
Thanks to all.

Thanks, Karl. I take it that someone did review my patches? (Not
mentioned either in this thread or on the commit log AFAICS, except
Paolo saying he was going to.)

sh and ksh on IRIX 6.5
IRIX mis-parses "1e 1" as 10.0 and "" instead of 1.0 and "e 1".
Because the original parse may differ from the reparse in terms
of whether the value overflows, we have to do an errno dance.
* lib/strtod.c (strtod): Reparse number on shorter string if
exponent parse was invalid.
* tests/test-strtod
FYI,
No big deal, and no rush for such a corner case...
This certainly doesn't matter to grep.
While testing for grep, I hit this:
$ ./test-unsetenv
test-unsetenv.c:49: assertion failed
Abort trap (core dumped)
[Exit 134 (SIGABRT)]
It failed on this line:
ASSERT (putenv ("") == -1);

Using a better SHELL was the quick work-around.

If bash is manually installed, then things are okay. But all existing

If that happens, the result will be that each init.sh-using test
