+       [Update from gnulib]
+       This lets translators provide better translations for the
+       "Written by ..." part of --version output.
+       * version-etc.h: Include stdarg.h.
+       (version_etc_copyright): Declare as readonly.
+       (version_etc): Make this function variadic with a NULL-terminated list
+       of author name strings.
+       (version_etc_va): New declaration.
+       * version-etc.c: Include stdarg.h, stdlib.h.
+       (version_etc_copyright): Declare as readonly.
+       (version_etc_va): New function. Provide a different translatable string
+       for each possible number of authors < 10. Abbreviate when there are 10
+       authors or more.
+       (version_etc): Make this function variadic. Call version_etc_va.
+       Suggestion from Gary V. Vaughan.
+
+       * long-options.h (parse_long_options): Change prototype: the authors
+       string is moved to the end and becomes variadic.
+       * long-options.c: Include stdarg.h.
+       (parse_long_options): Make this function variadic, too.
+       Call version_etc_va, not version_etc.

        * xfts.c, xfts.h: New files.
