I saw you send one to texinfo.

I think these are the ones that were reverted by some automatic things
from other upstreams:
https://github.com/jsoref/gnu-gnulib/commit/142ff39f17f846808d018a1eb5e43d5e9ee7d2e6

Will someone else manage pulling in those bits? Or am I responsible for that?

I'm aware they're distinct words, but I believe that `obsolete` is the
appropriate term.

obsolescent is about "becoming obsolete", but afaict all of the
instances involve cases where something has declared a thing as in
fact *being* obsolete as opposed to merely things which through (lack
of) common usage are becoming obsolete.

The additional "in the neighborhood" changes look great.

Thanks, I pulled in the changes as
https://github.com/jsoref/gnu-gnulib/commits/142ff39f17f846808d018a1eb5e43d5e9ee7d2e6

For the curious, these are the bits which weren't dropped when I rebased:
