Thanks. I've done the same for gzip, sed, diffutils, grep and cppi. It needed a tiny adaptation for sed's use of "testsuite" as the directory name rather than the more common "tests". Also, there were two new warnings exposed in gzip (because I built with bleeding edge GCC). Along the way, I updated each to latest gnulib+bootstrap, too.
