11 * gettimeofday.m4: New file.
13 2001-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
15 * Makefile.am.in (glibc-io.struct): New target. Rework the code
16 that generates jm-glibc-io.m4 so that it doesn't trigger any make

21 The following changes were prompted by suggestions from Bruno Haible.
23 * jm-glibc-io.m4n: New file, the template from which jm-glibc-io.m4
25 * Makefile.am.in (Makefile.am): Include jm-glibc-io.m4n in emitted
26 definition of EXTRA_DIST.

28 ensure that the generated file is created/updated whenever the list
29 of $(unlocked_functions) is changed.
30 (jm-glibc-io.m4): New rule.
31 (unlocked-io.h): New rule -- currently unused.
33 2001-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
35 * regex.m4 (jm_INCLUDED_REGEX): Use a quadrigraph to represent an
36 unmatched right bracket, rather than kludging it with an extra,
37 falsely-matching quote in a comment. Patch by Akim Demaille.
39 2001-05-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
41 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for ut_type in struct utmpx.
42 Check for ut_type in struct utmp.
44 2001-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
46 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Don't use AC_LIBOBJ(strftime),
47 now that we use the package-supplied version unconditionally.
48 (jm_FUNC_STRFTIME): Don't replace strftime, for the same reason.
50 2001-05-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
52 * regex.m4: Change a couple backticks to single quotes to avoid shell
55 2001-05-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>

59 2001-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
61 * m4/strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME):
62 Don't bother to check library strftime, since
63 we'll be using our own my_strftime function anyway.
64 Define my_strftime instead of strftime.
66 2001-05-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
68 * regex.m4: Use proper quoting so brackets appear in the test program.
69 Reported by, and with help from, Bruno Haible.
71 2001-05-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
73 * jm-macros.m4 (major_t, minor_t): Define to unsigned int if undefined.

84 2001-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
86 * ftruncate.m4: Check for chsize.
87 Link with ftruncate.o unconditionally if ftruncate is missing.
88 This was required when cross-compiling to i586-mingw32msvc.
90 2001-03-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
92 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.49d.

98 2001-03-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
100 * memcmp.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Remove my copy of AC_FUNC_MEMCMP,
101 now that the version in autoconf is equivalent.
102 (jm_FUNC_MEMCMP): Adjust to use AC_FUNC_MEMCMP.
104 * error.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ERROR): Invoke AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R.
105 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.

110 2001-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
112 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use mkstemp replacement if the system
113 lacks mkstemp. Compile our own tempname.c if we compile our own
114 mkstemp.c, as mkstemp relies on tempname.
116 2001-03-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
118 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
119 AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.
121 2001-02-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
123 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.
125 2001-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
127 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
128 getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
129 further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
132 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,
133 rather than AC_CACHE_VAL.
135 2001-02-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
137 * mbrtowc.m4: New file, defining jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC.
138 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH):
139 Use jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC, not AC_CHECK_FUNCS(mbrtowc).
140 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Likewise.
142 2001-02-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

146 2001-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
148 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.14d (not yet released), because
149 it includes the patch required for `large file' support with at least
150 HP-UX's 10.20 /bin/cc.
152 2001-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
154 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of
155 AS_IF, now that it works once again (mysteriously).
156 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.
158 2001-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
160 Don't use filenames that are 8.3-equivalent to "conftest" on DOS.

162 * rename.m4: s/conftestdir/conftest.d1/ and s/conftestdir2/conftest.d2/.
163 * utimes.m4: s/conftestdata/conftest.data/
164 Inspired by Pavel Roskin's change in autoconf.
166 2001-01-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
168 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Open-code what was
170 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.
172 2001-01-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
174 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Check for stddef.h, now that
175 quotearg.c includes it.
177 2001-01-15 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
179 * iconv.m4 (jm_ICONV): Also check whether the iconv declaration
182 2001-01-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
184 Be sure that headers are checked before used in code compiled
186 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove all header checks.
187 In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
188 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
189 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
190 Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;
191 The check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.
193 The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
194 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.
195 (jm_PREREQ_HASH): New function.
197 2001-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
199 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use AS_IF, not AS_IFELSE,
201 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.
203 2001-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
205 * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
206 foo and bar. Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
207 Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.
208 Remove conftestdir{,2} before trying to create the directory.
209 Make the entire configure script fail if the mkdir fails.
211 2001-01-02 Volker Borchert <bt@teknon.de>
213 * rename.m4: New file.
214 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require vb_FUNC_RENAME.
216 2001-01-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
218 * libintl.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Define MKINSTALLDIRS by
219 expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
220 so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.
222 2001-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
224 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
225 on systems with utmpx.h. It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
226 ut_user member. Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
228 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
229 They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.
230 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for grp.h and pwd.h.
231 Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
233 2000-12-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
235 * libintl.m4 (AM_WITH_NLS): When using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR,
236 prepend $(top_srcdir) to the value of MKINSTALLDIRS so that it
237 can be used in subdirectories.
239 2000-12-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
241 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Rewrite (though it's still a stub) to work better
244 2000-12-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
246 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): New file and macro.
247 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require jm_AC_DOS.

254 2000-12-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
256 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
257 strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
258 Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
259 Check for strtol. Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
260 strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
261 Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.
263 2000-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
265 * off_t-format.m4 (OFF_T_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING): New file/macro.
266 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): require it.
268 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
270 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for stdint.h.
272 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

276 2000-11-03 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
278 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add test for wcrtomb.
280 2000-11-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
282 * regex.m4: Use the `m4_' prefix on `syscmd' and `m4_sysval'.
284 2000-10-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
286 * fsusage.m4: s/AC_SHELL_IFELSE/AS_IFELSE/ to match autoconf renaming.
287 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: Likewise
289 2000-10-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
291 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_MEMCHR.
292 (jm_PREREQ_MEMCHR): New function.
294 2000-10-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
296 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Also check for memrchr.
297 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_DIRNAME): New macro.
298 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memrchr.
300 2000-09-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
302 * getloadavg.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Restore the initial value of LIBS.
303 Otherwise, everyone ends up linking with -lelf for some configurations.
304 Reported by Mike Stone.
306 2000-08-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
308 * jm-macros.m4: Use jm_FUNC_FPENDING.
309 * fpending.m4: New file.
311 2000-08-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
313 * check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
314 `#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'. The latter would lose on systems with neither
315 utmp.h nor utmpx.h. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
317 2000-08-11 J. David Anglin <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>
319 Improve fileutils installation on systems where running
320 programs (like install) can't be unlinked.
321 * unlink-busy.m4 (jm_FUNC_UNLINK_BUSY_TEXT): New file/macro.
322 * jm-macros.m4: Use jm_FUNC_UNLINK_BUSY_TEXT.
324 2000-08-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
326 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T): Define mbstate_t to be int,
327 not char, for compatibility with glibc 2.1.3 strftime.c.
329 2000-07-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
331 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH): Check for wcwidth declaration.
333 2000-07-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
335 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Check for declarations of these, too:
336 getgrgid, getpwuid, getuid.
338 2000-07-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
340 * mbswidth.m4: New file.
341 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Call jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH.
343 2000-07-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
345 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Require jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T.
347 2000-07-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
349 From a suggestion by Bruno Haible.
350 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
351 Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT. All uses changed.
352 Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
353 and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
354 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.
356 2000-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
358 * strerror_r.m4: Mirror the correction made in autoconf.
360 * gnu-source.m4: Output to confdefs.h directly.
361 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
363 2000-07-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
365 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add a test to see if -lm is required
366 to link seq. If so, set SEQ_LIBM to -lm. From Bruno Haible.
368 * gnu-source.m4 (AC__GNU_SOURCE): New file/macro.
369 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require it.
371 2000-07-05 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
373 * strerror_r.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Pass a reasonably large buffer
375 Include <ctype.h> for use of isalpha.
377 2000-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
378 and Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
380 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
381 only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails. This
382 prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
383 system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
386 2000-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
388 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead
389 of the deprecated AC_CHECKING.
391 2000-07-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
393 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add strnlen.

400 2000-07-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
402 * mbstate_t.m4: Also define mbstate_t, if necessary.
404 * chown.m4: Replace each use of AC_SUBST(LIBOBJS)/LIBOBJS=... with
405 AC_LIBOBJ(function_name).
406 * chown.m4: Likewise.
407 * fnmatch.m4: Likewise.
408 * ftruncate.m4: Likewise.
409 * getgroups.m4: Likewise.
410 * getline.m4: Likewise.
411 * group-member.m4: Likewise.
412 * jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
413 * lstat.m4: Likewise.
414 * malloc.m4: Likewise.
415 * memcmp.m4: Likewise.
416 * nanosleep.m4: Likewise.
417 * putenv.m4: Likewise.
418 * realloc.m4: Likewise.
419 * regex.m4: Likewise.
421 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
423 2000-07-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

431 macro from MOUNTED_NEXT_DEV to MOUNTED_FS_STAT_DEV.
433 2000-07-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
435 * uptime.m4: Put double quotes around use of $cross_compiling.
437 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
439 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
440 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
442 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
444 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
445 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
446 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
448 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
450 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
451 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
453 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
455 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
456 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
457 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
458 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
459 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
460 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
462 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
464 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.
465 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Use it. Add check for iswprint.
467 2000-06-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

477 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add getpass.
479 2000-06-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
481 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Remove mkdir.
483 * link-follow.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK): Change the
484 `checking whether...' message to be consistent with that of the
487 2000-06-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
489 * glibc21.m4 (jm_GLIBC21): Define GLIBC21 for Makefiles, not for C.
491 2000-06-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
493 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Replace with AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
494 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
495 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
496 the optional argument, `lib'.
498 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
500 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
502 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
504 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
505 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
506 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
508 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
509 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
510 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
511 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
512 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
514 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
515 test program without and with the macro definition.
516 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
517 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
520 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
522 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
523 now that autoconf requires that.
525 * jm-glibc-io.m4: Add a kludge to make autoheader emit the required

610 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
612 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if

614 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
615 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
617 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

629 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
632 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the

634 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
636 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
638 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
639 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
641 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
643 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM

645 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
647 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
649 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not

684 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
685 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't

687 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
689 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
691 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
692 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
693 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
695 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
697 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
698 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
699 the underlying strftime.

721 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
723 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
724 the messages come out on separate lines.

767 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
768 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
769 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
770 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
771 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
772 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
773 Reported by Volker Borchert.
775 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
777 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

804 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
806 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
807 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
809 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
811 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
812 as time.h in the compile check.
813 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
814 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.

818 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in

829 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
831 * jm-macros.m4 (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):

860 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
861 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
862 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
863 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
865 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
867 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.

869 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
871 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
872 Thanks to Akim for explaining.

883 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
884 because the latter didn't work.
