Is there any reason why the pipe2_safer code is not in a file of its own? It's nice to be able to guess the file which contains a particular function, without resorting to 'grep -r'. Also, in situations where you have multiple gnulib-tool invocations in a single package, uses of "#if GNULIB_<indicator macro>" often lead to trouble. Here is a proposed patch: 2009-12-10 Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org> * lib/pipe2-safer.c: New file, extracted from lib/pipe-safer.c. * lib/pipe-safer.c (pipe2_safer): Remove function. * modules/pipe2-safer (Files): Add lib/pipe2-safer.c.
