I agree that gnulib-tool does not need to be run by bootstrap. In fact
that is probably not a good idea, since it needs to be run more often.
I don't remember exactly what the problematic files were with
autoreconf. install-sh and texinfo.tex come to mind, but I don't have a
recipe. I don't remember that I ran -f, but maybe I did. Anyway, when
I start working on Hello, I guess I'll find out.
Why would you use the CVS version of these files, and not also the
CVS versions of Autoconf and Automake? I can't see the difference.
The difference is that auto* is an integrated piece of software. Gnulib
is a bunch of little modules, mostly completely independent. It makes
no sense to make a "release" of it.
