In making your case, it would be good to be able to itemize the glibc bug fixes that have not yet been ported to gnulib,
I think there are none pending.
and contrast that gain with the (theoretical?) loss of support for strings of length>= 2GiB.
More precisely that would loss of support for strings of length >= 2GiB *on 32-bit systems*. I didn't suggest going back to int, but rather to intptr_t or ptrdiff_t. I don't have the time now to do the change (also because first I'd rather add to gnulib the regex tests I have in sed), but I'll announce it to bug-gnulib when/if I do.
Anyway your patches are correct, and of course I'm fine if you keep them in coreutils. I would object to having them in gnulib though.
