+ version-etc: extend for packagers
+ Add three new configure options, intended for packagers:
+ --with-packager="packager name"
+ --with-packager-version="packager-specific version"
+ --with-packager-bug-reports="packager bug reporting"
+ An example with coreutils:
+ $ ./configure \
+ --with-packager=Gentoo \
+ --with-packager-bug-report=http://bugs.gentoo.org/ \
+ --with-packager-version="patchset 1.6"
+ $ ./src/ls --version | head -n3
+ ls (GNU coreutils) 7.1-dirty
+ Packaged by Gentoo (patchset 1.6)
+ Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+ Note that the bug reporting info via --help doesn't show up because
+ coreutils uses its own custom emit_bug_reporting_address() implementation
+ in src/system.h. If it didn't, it'd look like:
+ $ ./src/ls --help | tail -n4
+ Report bugs to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>.
+ Report Gentoo bugs to <http://bugs.gentoo.org/>.
+ GNU coreutils home page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/>.
+ General help using GNU software: <http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/>.
+ * lib/version-etc.c: Print new information, if provided.
+ * m4/version-etc.m4: New file.
+ * modules/version-etc (Files): Add m4/version-etc.m4.
+ (configure.ac): Add gl_VERSION_ETC.
+

* tests/test-alignof.c: Include <stdint.h>. Check also 'long double'
