 Important notes
 ---------------
 
+2010-09-04  gnulib-tool     The option '--import' is no longer cumulative; it
+                            now expects the complete list of modules and other
+                            options on the command line. If you want to
+                            augment (not set) the list of modules, use the
+                            new option '--add-import' instead of '--import'.

+                            CFLAGS yourself. It is no longer added to LDFLAGS

+
+2010-03-05  exit            This module is deprecated, use 'stdlib' directly

 2009-12-10  *               Most source code files have been converted to
                             indentation by spaces (rather than tabs). Patches
                             of gnulib source code needs to be updated.
