Here's an obvious patch to simplify src/Makefile.am now that
gnulib strtod no longer needs libm.  Is it OK to install this?

Subject: [PATCH] omit $(POW_LIB) when linking, as this is no longer needed

* src/Makefile.am (printf_LDADD, seq_LDADD, sleep_LDADD, sort_LDADD):
(tail_LDADD, uptime_LDADD): Omit $(POW_LIB), as it's no longer
needed due to recent gnulib changes, where the strtod module no
longer uses the pow function.  strtold needs pow only because it's
sometimes aliased to strtod.  See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-07/msg00076.html

That looks good.
I've just updated to the latest gnulib,
so I went ahead and pushed that.

cheers,
Pádraig.
