And with that done, now I can go back to focusing on preparations for
1.9b.  I still need to break up my ${11} patch into pieces, in response to
Gary's good critique.

At any rate, I ported the following last-minute changes on the branch to
head as follows.  I also decided that since gnulib-tool now generates
ltdl/m4/.cvsignore, we might as well remove it from CVS control (keeping
generated files under CVS control can lead to spurious conflicts or
differences).

2007-03-24  Eric Blake  <address@hidden>

        * m4/output.c (m4_output_init): Update to latest gnulib.
        * bootstrap (ltdl/m4/.cvsignore): No longer track generated
        .cvsignore in CVS.
        * NEWS: Reflect release of 1.4.9.
        * THANKS: Update.
