Hi Akim,
How about the following patch to:
- include timevar.texi in the Gnulib documentation,
- mention '#include <stdio.h>', needed for stderr,
- use GNU coding style for function definitions,
- use #include "work.h". The common practice is to use #include <>
for header files defined outside the package.
Also, Where is the documentation regarding
- the comparison with profiling tools,
- the multithreading,
- child processes?
