* autogen.sh, autopull.sh, bootstrap-funclib.sh: New files, copied from gnulib/top. * bootstrap: Copy from gnulib/top/bootstrap (as opposed to copying from gnulib/build-aux/bootstrap, as we used to). * bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_post_pull_hook) (bootstrap_post_import_hook): New functions. Move commands into these functions as needed.
