Yes, libgnu is built as a "convenience library" (the term used by
the automake and libtool manuals) and all of its functions are supposed
to be inserted into libcruft. There is not supposed to be a separate
libgnu library that we would need to link with. Do you see an error?
Are the functions from libgnu not being inserted into the libcruft
library?
