-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Andreas Schwab on 6/3/2008 2:00 AM: | | You would also lose the capability to build on a system with an old | kernel, but new glibc (eg in a chroot), and getting the same result as | if building on the target system.

Convincing argument. I've checked in my patch, so that gnulib now uses a runtime fallback when utimensat fails with ENOSYS. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
