Wow, way to pull things out of context to spread some silly FUD. First, you have
no idea what I had been up to those 5 hours, let alone if I was parked in
front of the computer the whole time... Then, the "patch" was really a
multitude of patches, involving fixes to issues in GDB and GDBserver (GDBserver was
not using gnulib before, and that was that prompted the gnulib update), with the
most time consuming bit being that the way that GDB imports gnulib was changed
dramatically, because we now have _two_ programs in the same tree that share
the _same_ gnulib import in a way no other program does, afaik.

As Reuben says, just updating gnulib is a trivial case of git
pull + running gnulib-tool.
