Re: [PATCH] base32, base64: prefer signed to unsigned integers

[Bruno Haible]

Hi Paul,

There are two problems with this patch:

1) $ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=../testdir5 --single-configure base32 
base64
   prints messages
   gnulib-tool: warning: module base32 depends on a module with an incompatible 
license: ialloc
   gnulib-tool: warning: module base64 depends on a module with an incompatible 
license: ialloc

   The obvious fix would be to change the license of 'ialloc' from LGPL to 
LGPLv2+.

2) The continuous integration reported a test failure (both with GCC and clang):

   test-base64.c:131: assertion 'len == 0' failed
   FAIL test-base64 (exit status: 134)

   But, strangely, I can't reproduce it locally. (Maybe it depends on the glibc
   version?)
