today I tried to start working on the drand48 issue but I can't apply 
the patch to my Gnulib copy. I just tried

git apply ../0001-new-module-rand48.patch

and got

../0001-new-module-rand48.patch:852: space before tab in indent.
                  srand48 seed48 lcong48 drand48_r erand48_r lrand48_r \
error: patch failed: lib/stdlib.in.h:234
error: lib/stdlib.in.h: patch does not apply

any help? I'm rathe rnew to git so be a little bit patient with me ...

greetings,

Stefan
