One important thing to remember is to invoke the scripts from the directory
above, like so:

./tools-scripts/whichever-script-youre-calling

otherwise they won't work properly.   Both PRs and Tickets/Issues are
welcome.  For larger changes, you need to submit a copyright request at
ass...@gnu.org and copy me.  Once you've done that I can add you to the
repository.  The FSF takes some time to get the PDF to you and to process
it and my policy is to allow people to contribute ASAP once they have
requested the assignment with the assumption that they will submit it.  I
have worked on the scripts for a while so that they can provide commonly
needed things when building GNUstep.

I will look at these PRs and YES support for Arch Linux would absolutely be
welcomed and appreciated.  I have heard there are people who want Arch
support, so adding it would be awesome.
