Subject: library auxiliary, 3rd trial



sorry if you already got this, but I have the impression it did not get
through ...

Hi!

  I'm currently writing the documentation for the library
`auxiliary`. As several of the tactics supplied by `auxiliary`
are good examples of a bad proof style (proof: problems with
porting the libraries well-order and zet to version 1.12), we
think about `rewriting` auxiliary ...

Thus, if you are using the library `auxiliary`, please let me
know (ASAP!) which functions you are using. The `dangerous`
features will be removed (completely) if nobody uses them, else
they might be put in the contrib or some of these even kept in
the library!!

All libraries depending on the tactics from `auxiliary` will
be/have been rewritten. If you are only using these libraries you
don't have to fear anything. (you won't `see` the changes)
