Re: [Bug-gnulib] modules, AC_FUNC_MEMCMP and old ANSI C dependencies

    on the assumption that we have arrived in ANSI C land and don't care
    about extremely ancient systems.

I agree with this.

    This means that every maintainer who cares about pre-ANSI-C
    portability has to determine which of these old substitute module he
    needs by hand.

I think that's ok.  I doubt there will ever be such a maintainer.


I realized the other day that some ANSI C crept into Texinfo from a
user's patch a couple of years ago, and no one has ever noticed :).
