'make syntax-check' wants a newer gnulib for 2014 copyright.
Also, a couple of fixes for bootstrap issues reported on IRC:
- on some older glibc systems, ./configure could deadlock due to
a glibc malloc bug
- on FreeBSD systems, a broken autom4te coupled with gettext
0.18.3 prevents bootstrap; we can't work around it, but can at
least inform the user why they have a problem
And as always, portability fixes in other modules, some of which
are used by libvirt.
* .gnulib: Update to latest, in part for bootstrap improvements,
and for the new year.
* bootstrap: Resync to gnulib.
* gnulib/local/m4/ssize_t.m4.diff: Regenerate.

'make syntax-check' warned that gnulib's copyright is now out of date.
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for copyright year bump.
* gnulib/local/m4/ssize_t.m4.diff: Regenerate.
* bootstrap: Synchronize from upstream.
We are so close to a release that we don't want to pull in a
gnulib submodule update and risk regressions, since there has
been a lot of other gnulib churn upstream. However, there are
a couple of gnulib issues that are worth fixing in isolation,
by applying local patches to gnulib.
There was an upstream gnulib bug in maint.mk that rendered most
of our syntax checks ineffective (and fixing it flushed out a
minor bug in our code):
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-03/msg00194.html
There is still an upstream bug where gnulib uses the wrong type
for ssize_t on mingw; we need the fix now even though it has not
yet been accepted into gnulib:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-03/msg00188.html
* gnulib/local/top/maint.mk.diff: Pick up upstream gnulib
maint.mk.
* gnulib/local/m4/ssize_t.m4.diff: Work around gnulib bug.
* src/libvirt.c: Remove unused header.
* cfg.mk
(exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_empty_lines_at_EOF): Exempt
gnulib local files.
