bootstrap: avoid failure when there is no .gitmodules file ": ${gnulib_path=gnulib}" fails to set $gnulib_path when that variable has been assigned to, even when its value is the empty string. * build-aux/bootstrap (gnulib_path): Test explicitly for an empty "$gnulib_path", rather than using ${gnulib_path=gnulib}. Reported by John W. Eaton <jwe@gnu.org>.
