It passed with coreutils because coreutils requests other crypto modules as well, and these set LIB_CRYPTO. The particular thing about Gnulib is that people can use an *arbitrary subset* of its set of modules. Therefore, when we add a module we must make sure that 1. the module works standalone, without any other modules, 2. conflicts with other modules are avoided. 'gnulib-tool --create-testdir' is the tool for verifying this. Bruno
