+Description: Allow package to build with glibc-2.16
+ 'gets' has been removed from glibc-2.16 but gnulib still refers to it
+ causing build failures.
+ The simple fix for now is just to put a check around the reference in
+ lib/stdio.in.h
+ A new release made with a new gnulib is a better fix.
+ .
