Yes, it's because of the way how patch uses gnulib -- it still has a static copy. I was trying to get it to build on most systems before ripping out the static copy, switching to automake, using gnulib as intended, etc. Apparently I got several things wrong when trying that. Any help towards fixing this up properly would be highly appreciated! > Is GNU patch properly using the string.in.h replacement header? No, I was trying to get things running without pulling in another dozen files from gnulib. Thanks, Andreas
