Description James Rowe 2005-09-17 00:53:25 UTC

When the gpl or acmkdir scripts are run the user is bombarded by the
"`-[num]' option is obsolete" warnings from head and tail.  It is caused by
the ~/.GPL parsing in src/gpl/gpl.sh(which is also called in acmkdir), the
attached patch simply adds a call to ht_fix_file to halt the ugliness.
