9 2008-04-28 rpmatch The include file is now <stdlib.h>.
11 2008-04-28 inet_ntop The include file is changed from "inet_ntop.h"
14 2008-04-28 inet_pton The include file is changed from "inet_pton.h"
17 2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
18 now increases by 1 after ungetc.
20 2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
21 isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
22 "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
23 defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
25 2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
26 implementations; clients that use controlled
27 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
28 efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
29 module instead for smaller code size.
31 2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
32 supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
33 expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
34 Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
35 <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
37 2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
38 implementations; clients that use controlled
39 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
40 efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
41 module instead for smaller code size.
43 2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
44 <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
45 longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
46 module if you need it.
48 2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
51 2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
54 2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
55 GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
56 A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
57 module description for the applicable license.
59 2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
60 locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
61 "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
63 2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
64 Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
65 Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
68 2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
69 The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
70 and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
72 2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
74 2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
75 Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
77 2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
78 error to standard error; that is now the
79 caller's responsibility. It returns an
80 error code of type enum strtol_error
81 instead of the integer option value, and stores
82 the option value via a new int * argument.
83 xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
84 are now an option name and option argument
85 instead of an option argument and a type string,
86 STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
88 2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
90 2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
91 gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
93 2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
96 2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
97 (There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
99 2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
102 2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
103 was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
107 2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
108 was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
113 2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
114 conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
115 that has a different signature.
117 2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
118 #include "sigprocmask.h"
122 2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
123 You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
124 'long double' as a type exists.

171 2007-03-19 iconvme The module is removed. Use module striconv instead:
172 iconv_string -> str_iconv
173 iconv_alloc -> str_cd_iconv (with reversed
176 2007-03-15 list The functions gl_list_create_empty and
177 array-list gl_list_create now take an extra fourth argument.
178 carray-list You can pass NULL.
186 2007-03-15 oset The function gl_oset_create_empty now takes a
187 array-oset third argument. You can pass NULL.

210 xreadlink-with-size. The function was renamed:
211 xreadlink -> xreadlink_with_size.
