I think so.  I installed all but codeset.m4 and signed.m4, which
Bruno should look at.

Not in gnulib, no.

Also, inttypes_h.m4, inttypes-h.m4, inttypes-pri.m4, intmax_t.m4,
size_max.m4, and uintmax_t.m4 are no longer needed now that we have
the inttypes and stdint modules.  I suspect that Bruno will get around
to removing the dependencies on this old stuff when he decides that
inttypes and stdint are stable enough, and therefore upgrades the
gettext, mkdtemp, xsize, linkedhash-list, rbtreehash-list,
avltreehash-list and vasnprintf modules, and removes the size_max
module.

At some point I'd like to rename _inttypes_h.m4 to inttypes.m4, which
would be more consistent with the stdint naming convention.
