Let's have this fixed upstream instead. I'm CC'ing this to
address@hidden so that they can fix it.
POSIX uses "file system" (two words), and the GNU coding standards
prefer "file name" to "filename", so I think the change is a good one
for consistency.

* doc/make-stds.texi: Bump copyright year.
(Command Variables, Directory Variables): Fix spelling
`filesystem' -> `file system'.
