Subject: update to latest gnulib
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 2010 08:50:28 +0200

I've just updated coreutils to use the latest from gnulib.
To do that, I needed a few preparatory patches to:
  - adapt to new lib-ignore
  - pass one new syntax-check: sc_prohibit_test_minus_ao
  - disable another: sc_texinfo_acronym
