You are more than welcome to try patches that make the module usable

from a library context, as it does seem like a worthwhile feature to
offer from a library. I will warn, however, that the current maintainer
of the module is listed as Bruno Haible, and he has been relatively slow
at responding to license requests lately; this may be a case where we
have to appeal to the FSF (and get rms' permission) if we can't track
down permission from the original author, and that may be time-consuming
even if we have patches in hand to eliminate calls to exit().
call error() only if exit_on_error is set on all occations.patch
