	* catgets/gencat.c (main): Don't use exit() to avoid warnings with
	broken compilers.

	* include/features.h (__STDC_ISO_10646__): Correct value to be
	200009L.  Patch by Markus Kuhn <Markus.Kuhn@cl.cam.ac.uk>.

 * lots of disk space (~400MB for i?86-linux; more for RISC platforms).
 
 * plenty of time.  Compiling just the shared and static libraries for
-  i?86-linux takes approximately 1h on an AMD-K6@225MHz w/ 96MB of RAM,
-  45mins on a Celeron@400MHz w/ 128MB, and 55mins on a Alpha@533MHz w/ 256MB.
-  Multiply this by 1.5 or 2.0 if you build profiling and/or the highly
-  optimized version as well.  For Hurd systems times are much higher.
+  35mins on a 2xPIII@550Mhz w/ 512MB RAM.  On a 2xUltraSPARC-II@360Mhz
+  w/ 1GB RAM it takes about 14 minutes.  Multiply this by 1.5 or 2.0

   You should avoid compiling in a NFS mounted filesystem.  This is
   very slow.

   64MB of RAM, and about 9h on a 601@60Mhz w/ 72Mb.
