+ maint.mk: use more readable (yet functionally equivalent) quoting
+ It is common to quote a single quote in a single quoted string like
+ this: '...'\''...'. Unless you know the idiom, that looks like
+ gibberish, so prefer to double-quote the string when possible.
+ Then you can use a more readable, lone single quote: "...'..."
+ * top/maint.mk (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free): Quoting like this
+ "don't" is more readable than the equivalent 'don'\''t'.
+ (sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value): Likewise.
+ (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value): Likewise.
+ (sc_makefile_path_separator_check): Similar: use ":" in '...',
+ rather than '\'':'\''.

+ stdalign: relax _Alignof and tighten _Alignas test
+ * m4/stdalign.m4 (gl_STDALIGN_H): Relax the _Alignof test,
+ as it was too strict: alignof must divide offsetof, but it need
+ not equal offsetof. Inspired by Joseph S. Myers's comment
+ <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52023#c10>.
+ Conversely, tighten the _Alignas test a bit, as the resulting
+ alignment must be exactly 8.

+ update-copyright: accept new option: UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=2
+ * build-aux/update-copyright: When UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=2,
+ convert a sequence with gaps to the minimal containing range.
+ For example, convert 2000, 2004-2007, 2009 to 2000-2009.
+ * tests/test-update-copyright.sh: Test for this.
+ The FSF confirmed it is ok to do this, assuming there is at
+ least one significant change per year in the affected range:

+ obstack: remove __STDC__ conditionals
+ * lib/obstack.h: Remove __STDC__ conditionals, as suggested by Joseph
+ S. Myers in <http://cygwin.com/ml/libc-alpha/2012-01/msg00104.html>.
+ This leaves lib/localcharset.c, m4/iconv.m4, and a confusing comment in
+ m4/include_next.m4 as the only gnulib-maintained places that still
+ refer to __STDC__.
