gnulib now has more than 600 modules, some of which are already in

I propose two new subdirectories in the modules directory, with the aim of
clarity:
1) a subdirectory headers/
2) a subdirectory functions/
I think that some kind of categorisation could be helpful. While I am
not violently opposed to your suggestion, might I propose that we
entertain some alternative strategy? Perhaps something like this?
posix - for implementing POSIX functionality on broken systems
glibc - for gnulib's implementation of functions available on GNU
systems but not posix (i.e. for things we should sometimes sync with
glibc)
I think also some other arrangement might work: data structures,
string functions and math functions seem to be quite numerous.
