[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57044] Use gnulib without hg subrepo and `bootstrap` with proper revision control

[Kai Torben Ohlhus]

Follow-up Comment #40, bug #57044 (project octave):

Mike (comment #38), in the past this did not really happen very often, and the
fix is more than obvious.  In the same spirit some developers (including me)
face from time to time problems with stale build trees, if there where
breaking changes that require deleting all old stuff and starting from
bootstrap again.

My overall impression is Octave wins much more by doing this change, than it
looses.
