Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Eric Blake a01cf01fff maint: update to latest gnulib
'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.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
