[PATCH 3/3] maint: note that we'll remove amiga, atari, msdos, nt, os2, vms soon

[Jim Meyering]

While fixing a double-word, I noticed that vms/gzip.hlp
was essentially a generated file.  It's just a VC'd copy of
the generated gzip.1, with a few changes for vms.  Hence,
it was out of date, because it had not been kept in sync.

I've gone ahead and tweaked it to pass the new doubled-word
syntax check, but longer term plan to remove it, along with
these other directories:

  amiga, atari, msdos, nt, os2, vms

As mentioned in the TODO-updating commit below, if anyone thinks
some of those should *not* be removed, you should make the case soon.

I've also updated to the latest from gnulib/.

If someone can show that any of these are being used, let us know.
