Thanks for replacing the obsolete forms.
A few files were already using write-file-functions; I don't know if
you want to change those to before-save-hook, for consistency.

PS If you drop Emacs < 23.1 (released July 2009), you can switch to a
single .dir-locals.el file (rather than having the same stanza in
multiple source files), as someone pointed out in
http://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-gnulib/2011-02/msg00282.html
Hi,
Many gnulib files contain an Emacs-specific feature like the
following, eg in build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog:
eval: (add-hook 'write-file-hooks 'time-stamp)
write-file-hooks is obsolete since Emacs 22.1 (released June 2007),
and hopefully can be removed from Emacs one day.
Please replace
No other package besides Emacs uses gitmerge.el, so I don't see that
this is relevant for upstream gnulib.

And you could of course put the other settings in there, which ought

Hi,
I'm not sure if I should be reporting this to gnulib or to the various
upstreams from which the relevant files derive; but it seems to be a
common feature...
We have various files in Emacs that are synced from gnulib now.
Several of them:
compile, config.guess, config.sub, depcomp, doc/mi
