Hi Bruno, > Jim, would you agree to put the 'lstat' module under LGPL if we cut its > dependency from the 'xalloc' module?

The first one looks ok, but just using malloc would be simpler. IMHO, performance shouldn't be a concern here. This is a replacement function to work around deficient systems, after all. Regarding the second patch, I see no explanation for why it makes such a fundamental change (not appending `.'?). _______________________________________________ bug-gnulib mailing list bug-gnulib@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnulib
