Gnulib uses source code sharing.  There is no libgnulib.a, just a lot of
small modules that can be individually selected using `gnulib-tool
- --import', using a line in configure.ac `gl_MODULES(<modulename>...)'.

The list of modules is constantly being updated, the best bet is to check
this link from the gnulib homepage:
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/gnulib/gnulib/MODULES.html?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/html

As an example, CVS head of m4 uses gl_MODULES(assert error exit free
gettext mkstemp obstack progname regex stdbool strtol xalloc xalloc-die
xstrndup).  Coreutils uses a bigger subset of available modules (and to
keep this thread cygwin-related, I will note that some of my patches to
upstream coreutils have made their way into gnulib, so that other programs
also have the same cygwin porting issues fixed simply by using gnulib).
Other gnulib-using projects include findutils and GNU tar.
