Are the mentions of GSS in the section "Out of memory handling" bogus cut-and-paste-o's or similar? A bit of googling suggests that the text has indeed been cut and pasted from the GNU GSS manual. It seems that this section is essentially meant to document xalloc_die (not xalloc_fail_func, which is the name this section actually uses).
Should the section be deleted? Rewritten? By the way, I was delighted to discover the section (by accident, while researching for this email) on building the ISO/POSIX replacements as a library, as that's something I will shortly want to do. Along with the ability to remove installed modules, which I discovered accidentally today, this is a disadvantage of not having releases: no release notes means it's hard to keep up with cool new stuff that has been added to gnulib. Or is there a gnulib-specific way of doing this? -- http://rrt.sc3d.org
