I had a little bit of time to test; I see 3 fails (I'm testing on
Archlinux) that block the release:

   FAIL: tmac/tests/e_chapter-titles-work.sh
   FAIL: tmac/tests/e_ld-works.sh
   FAIL: tmac/tests/localization-works.sh

For the 1st one we try to do:

  grep -Fqx '$C: "Chapter" "1" "The Boy Sickens"'

however the output I have is:

   $C: \$@ $C: \$@ $C: \$@ Chapter 1 The Boy Sickens Chapter 2 The Boy Dies 
Appendix A Pathology of Boy Aged 11 Years

I haven't checked the 2 other ones yet.

I've updated the gnulib to their latest sha and updated our bootstrap
script, no issue, so it's on master now.
