4 User visible incompatible changes
5 ---------------------------------
9 2008-08-19 strverscmp The include file is changed from "strverscmp.h"
12 2008-08-14 lock The include file is changed from "lock.h"
14 tls The include file is changed from "tls.h"
17 2008-07-17 c-stack The module now requires the addition of
18 $(LIBCSTACK) or $(LTLIBCSTACK) in Makefile.am,
19 since it may depend on linking with libsigsegv.
21 2008-07-07 isnanf-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnanf.h"
23 isnand-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnand.h"
26 2008-06-10 execute The execute function takes an additional termsigp
27 argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
28 wait-process The wait_subprocess function takes an additional
29 termsigp argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
31 2008-05-10 linebreak The module is split into several modules unilbrk/*.
32 The include file is changed from "linebreak.h" to
33 "unilbrk.h". Two functions are renamed:
34 mbs_possible_linebreaks -> ulc_possible_linebreaks
35 mbs_width_linebreaks -> ulc_width_linebreaks
37 2008-04-28 rpmatch The include file is now <stdlib.h>.
39 2008-04-28 inet_ntop The include file is changed from "inet_ntop.h"
42 2008-04-28 inet_pton The include file is changed from "inet_pton.h"
45 2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
46 now increases by 1 after ungetc.
48 2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
49 isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
50 "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
51 defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
53 2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
54 implementations; clients that use controlled
55 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
56 efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
57 module instead for smaller code size.
59 2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
60 supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
61 expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
62 Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
63 <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
65 2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
66 implementations; clients that use controlled
67 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
68 efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
69 module instead for smaller code size.
71 2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
72 <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
73 longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
74 module if you need it.
76 2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
79 2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
82 2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
83 GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
84 A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
85 module description for the applicable license.
87 2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
88 locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
89 "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
91 2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
92 Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
93 Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
96 2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
97 The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
98 and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
100 2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
102 2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
103 Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
105 2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
106 error to standard error; that is now the
107 caller's responsibility. It returns an
108 error code of type enum strtol_error
109 instead of the integer option value, and stores
110 the option value via a new int * argument.
111 xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
112 are now an option name and option argument
113 instead of an option argument and a type string,
114 STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
116 2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
118 2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
119 gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
121 2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
124 2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
125 (There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
127 2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
130 2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
131 was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
135 2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
136 was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
141 2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
142 conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
143 that has a different signature.
145 2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
146 #include "sigprocmask.h"
150 2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
151 You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
152 'long double' as a type exists.
154 2007-04-01 arcfour Renamed to crypto/arcfour.
155 arctwo Renamed to crypto/arctwo.

196 ucs4-utf16 The include file is changed from "ucs4-utf16.h"
199 2007-03-19 iconvme The module is removed. Use module striconv instead:
200 iconv_string -> str_iconv
201 iconv_alloc -> str_cd_iconv (with reversed
204 2007-03-15 list The functions gl_list_create_empty and
205 array-list gl_list_create now take an extra fourth argument.
206 carray-list You can pass NULL.
214 2007-03-15 oset The function gl_oset_create_empty now takes a
215 array-oset third argument. You can pass NULL.

238 xreadlink-with-size. The function was renamed:
