Thank you! Looks great. This fix didn't make it into the 20240701-1 upload of gnulib into Debian, but hopefully I'll be able to take care of it before the next upload. It would be nice if the documentation is moved to the gnulib texinfo manual, but as I haven't tried git-merge-changelog yet I'm not the best person to work on that. /Simon
