+
+ Improve support for popcount and counting trailing zeros (Bug#15550).
+ Do this by using the Gnulib modules for this.
+ This should generate faster code on non-GCC, non-MSC platforms,
+ and make the code a bit more portable, at least in theory.
+ * lib/count-one-bits.c, lib/count-one-bits.h:
+ * lib/count-trailing-zeros.c, lib/count-trailing-zeros.h:
+ * m4/count-one-bits.m4, m4/count-trailing-zeros.m4:
+ New files, copied from gnulib.
+ * lib/gnulib.mk, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
