the substitute only if the system doesn't provide a correct one. The
template of this replacement is distributed in a slightly different name,
-with an added underscore, so that on systems which do provide a correct

+failure reports. Gnulib is available in two qualities:

+@item
+There is the newest version of Gnulib from the Git repository. The

+@item
+We also make stable releases every two months, at

+If you are willing to report an occasional regression, we recommend to
