Would you like to suggest what I should do next to my patch?
Not having had a reply, I've come up with my own answer: start with a little
bit of merging.
What I've done so far is to add the macros _prohibit_regexp and
_header_without_use to gnulib's maint.mk, redefine them to use C_SOURCES
rather than VC_LIST_EXCEPT, and, for already existing rules in gnulib's
maint.mk that use these macros, copy the definitions over from coreutils's
maint.mk.
I attach the patch.
This should change no functionality, but just imports some of the
coreutils's maint.mk's refactoring.
If this seems reasonable, I propose to continue to make a number of small
steps like this to reduce the size of the diff between the two maint.mk
files, even if I don't end up with a complete merge.
