[PATCH] bootstrap accepts --gnulib-srcdir=SRCDIR

[Giuseppe Scrivano]

Hi,

I saw `bootstrap' doesn't accept --gnulib-srcdir as it is already done
by other projects using gnulib.  It doesn't add a new feature as it can
be already done specifying GNULIB_SRCDIR, it just make the script more
similar to scripts used by other projects doing a bootstrap from
gnulib.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Giuseppe

* bootstrap: When --gnulib-srcdir=SRCDIR is specified, change the value
of GNULIB_SRCDIR to $SRCDIR.  Document --gnulib-srcdir usage.
