[PATCH] verify: use _Static_assert if available

This gnulib patch modifies "verify" to use C1X's _Static_assert if running GCC 4.6.0 or later, which generates easier-to-read diagnostics. I haven't pushed this yet because I thought it wouldn't hurt to get more pairs of eyes to look at it. diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index db0800c..3f3141

bootstrap botches .gitignore sorting

Running bootstrap updates .gitignore to sort it. However, it sorts lines with ! first, even though they should be last to be effective. For example, on libvirt, we have: /po/ !/po/POTFILES.in to quickly ignore all generated files under po, but then whitelist the version-controlled POTFILES.in fi
