You should need to.  The whole thing is supposed to be thought of in
terms of 'modules', because of so much common code.  So you'd bring
over, say, the malloc module - which would have malloc, realloc, and all
that.

gnulib and libiberty will probably merge one day.  The big difference is
that libiberty insists on living in GCC's sourcetree, and we weren't
willing to accept that.  GCC wants it for ease of bootstrapping, though.

gnulib also shares its sources with glibc.  We trade updates back and
forth.

I don't know freelib at all.  I also don't know if François Pinard still
maintains libit.  If yes, it would be nice to merge that in too.

Tks,
