I have a couple of questions:

First, doc/gnulib mentions gnulib-tool --update as the preferred entry in
a project's bootstrap (similar to gnulib-tool --import but without editing
ChangeLogs), but that option does not exist.  Which is wrong, the docs or
a missing option in gnulib-tool?

Second, I am working on a patch to make the dirname module behave better
on cygwin (it wasn't respecting // as distinct from /; and cygwin, unlike
DJGPP, treats c:dir the same as c:/dir rather than tracking an additional
26 relative directories for each drive letter).  I have converted the test
app that is currently in lib/dirname.c into a full blown
modules/dirname-tests and tests/test-dirname.c, but now I can't figure out
how to get gnulib-tool --test to compile and run test-dirname.c.
