  I must admit I got confused, I locally patched dist.mk to avoid the
check but then the modification didn't show up on git status. Moreover
ssh and then git to libvirt.org wasn't working this morning from my
home (a routing problem because I could access from elsewhere) so I ended
up not pushing any patch specific to make syntax-check as part of libvirt
0.8.7 release. I think the right thing to do now is update gnulib (i.e.
previous patch) since the release is done.
  Also if you could tag v0.8.7 on my commit with your key that would be nice
(my master key is on a few hard drives but all in a box, in a container, on
a ship somewhere :-\ I had forgotten this !)
