* .gnulib: Update to latest, to pick up 2011 copyrights. --- Gnulib has had a bit of churn lately, but this fixes the 'make syntax-check' complaint about copyright 2011 without introducing any other obvious failures. I think it's safe to include this patch as-is, but a simpler alternative is to modify cfg.mk to exclude the one failing test, if you think this update is too risky this close to a release. * .gnulib ce083ca...55b6628 (125):

* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Add sc_copyright_check, since we don't use version-etc module. ---

This is the simpler variant that avoids a .gnulib update. While gnulib has had a lot of recent fixes, most of them have been for HP-UX, Solaris, OSF/1, or Haiku (not primary targets of libvirt compilation at the moment), and many of the fixes are to modules not used by libvirt. Do we want to go with this more minimalistic patch instead?

I must admit I got confused, I locally patched dist.mk to avoid the check but then the modification didn't show up on git status. Moreover ssh and then git to libvirt.org wasn't working this morning from my home (a routing problem because I could access from elsewhere) so I ended up not pushing any patch specific to make syntax-check as part of libvirt 0.8.7 release. I think the right thing to do now is update gnulib (i.e. previous patch) since the release is done. Also if you could tag v0.8.7 on my commit with your key that would be nice (my master key is on a few hard drives but all in a box, in a container, on a ship somewhere :-\ I had forgotten this !)
