FWIW, libxml2 is (still) at 2.9.14, also on core-packages-team, and
building with gcc-14.2 just worked on core-packages-team. 

It didn't need updating and I'm trying to avoid scope creep beyond
moving to gcc-14 at this time, esp. an upgrade storm.

We still need to disable test-execute.sh, just like with 0.23

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
                   ;;libgettextlib-0.23.so => not found
                   (substitute* "gettext-tools/gnulib-tests/test-execute.sh"
                     (("^#!.*" all)
                      (string-append all "exit 77;\n")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

so I'm not seeing any difference.  But I guess newer is better and while
we're upgrading...

Okay, I've pushed an upgrade commit 0.23.1 to core-packages-team with
back-to-back a REMOVEME Revert... commit to not trigger a world rebuild
at this time.

Greetings,
