Hi Paul,

The diffutils CI reports a build failure today:

Probably the cause is that gnulib/lib/propername.h now has a _() invocation
inside comments, per
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commitdiff;h=3f478b6cd3041b85891ff4a3ef1a141f85f82e49

Thanks, I installed the attached into Gnulib and propagated this into 
diffutils.
