I took a closer look at it this morning. What should I do about timespec_cmp (), gettime(), and settime(), which currently appear only in timespec.h, but are in use by both coreutils and tar? Until that is resolved, timespec.h (and the timespec module) can't be deleted. Should we just move these function declarations into time_.h, even though they are not strictly part of time.h's namespace? Or do we keep the timespec module, which both coreutils and tar explicitly request, as an add-on module not required by any other gnulib module? -- Eric Blake
