59 Also check for iswcntrl, used for wcwidth fallback.
60 Use AC_TRY_COMPILE to emulate AC_CHECK_DECLS, for portability
63 2001-08-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
65 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Use `#include', not `@%:@include',

94 of $(unlocked_functions) is changed.
95 (jm-glibc-io.m4): New rule.
96 (unlocked-io.h): New rule -- currently unused.
98 2001-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

115 2001-05-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
117 * regex.m4: Change a couple backticks to single quotes to avoid shell

124 2001-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
126 * m4/strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME):
127 Don't bother to check library strftime, since
128 we'll be using our own my_strftime function anyway.
129 Define my_strftime instead of strftime.
131 2001-05-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
133 * regex.m4: Use proper quoting so brackets appear in the test program.

181 2001-03-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
183 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
184 AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.
186 2001-02-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
188 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.
190 2001-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
192 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
193 getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
194 further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
197 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,
198 rather than AC_CACHE_VAL.

211 2001-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
213 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.14d (not yet released), because

219 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of
220 AS_IF, now that it works once again (mysteriously).

249 Be sure that headers are checked before used in code compiled
251 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove all header checks.
252 In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
253 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
254 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
255 Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;
256 The check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.
258 The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
259 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.
260 (jm_PREREQ_HASH): New function.
262 2001-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

266 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.
268 2001-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
270 * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
271 foo and bar. Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
272 Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.
273 Remove conftestdir{,2} before trying to create the directory.
274 Make the entire configure script fail if the mkdir fails.

283 * libintl.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Define MKINSTALLDIRS by
284 expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
285 so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.
287 2001-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
289 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
290 on systems with utmpx.h. It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
291 ut_user member. Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
293 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
294 They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.

296 Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
298 2000-12-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
300 * libintl.m4 (AM_WITH_NLS): When using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR,
301 prepend $(top_srcdir) to the value of MKINSTALLDIRS so that it

319 2000-12-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
321 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
322 strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
323 Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
324 Check for strtol. Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
325 strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
326 Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.
328 2000-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

376 2000-08-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
378 * check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
379 `#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'. The latter would lose on systems with neither
380 utmp.h nor utmpx.h. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
382 2000-08-11 J. David Anglin <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>

412 2000-07-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
414 From a suggestion by Bruno Haible.
415 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
416 Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT. All uses changed.
417 Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
418 and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
419 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.
421 2000-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

440 Include <ctype.h> for use of isalpha.
442 2000-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
443 and Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
445 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
446 only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails. This
447 prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
448 system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
451 2000-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
453 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead

467 * mbstate_t.m4: Also define mbstate_t, if necessary.
469 * chown.m4: Replace each use of AC_SUBST(LIBOBJS)/LIBOBJS=... with
470 AC_LIBOBJ(function_name).
471 * chown.m4: Likewise.

502 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
504 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
505 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
507 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
509 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
510 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
511 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
513 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
515 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
516 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
518 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
520 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
521 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
522 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
523 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
524 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
525 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
527 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
529 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

548 * link-follow.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK): Change the
549 `checking whether...' message to be consistent with that of the
552 2000-06-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
554 * glibc21.m4 (jm_GLIBC21): Define GLIBC21 for Makefiles, not for C.
556 2000-06-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
558 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Replace with AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
559 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
560 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
561 the optional argument, `lib'.
563 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
565 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
567 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
569 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
570 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
571 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
573 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
574 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
575 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
576 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
577 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
579 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
580 test program without and with the macro definition.
581 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
582 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
585 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
587 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
588 now that autoconf requires that.
590 * jm-glibc-io.m4: Add a kludge to make autoheader emit the required
591 #undefs. E.g., #undef HAVE_DECL_FERROR_UNLOCKED.
592 Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS, now that autoconf requires that.
594 2000-05-26 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
596 * glibc21.m4: New file.
597 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_GLIBC21.

614 2000-05-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
616 * prereq.m4: Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_MEMBERS, now that
617 autoconf requires that.
618 * lib-check.m4: Likewise.
619 * jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
620 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
622 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
623 now that autoconf requires that.
625 2000-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
627 * stat.m4: Require jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
628 * lstat.m4: Likewise.
630 2000-05-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
632 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): New macro.
635 2000-05-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
637 * gettext.m4: Rename this...
638 * libintl.m4: ...to this.

650 (LIB_NANOSLEEP): Set and AC_SUBST.
652 2000-05-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
654 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
655 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
656 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
659 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
661 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Save and restore LIBS around AC_SEARCH_LIBS
662 call for clock_gettime.

667 su doesn't work on Solaris2.6.
668 * lib-check.m4: When checking for struct spwd.sp_pwdp, also include
669 <shadow.h>. Reported by Dragos Harabor.
671 2000-05-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
673 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add strndup.
675 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
677 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if
678 this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3). Use
679 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
680 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
682 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
684 * fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.
686 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add BeOS support.
687 Based on a patch from Bruno Haible.
689 2000-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
691 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_GETPAGESIZE): New macro.
694 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
697 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
698 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
699 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
701 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
703 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
704 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
706 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
708 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
709 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
710 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
712 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
714 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
715 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
716 Christian Krackowizer.
718 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
719 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
720 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
721 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
723 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
725 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
726 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
728 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
730 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
731 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
732 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
733 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
734 From John David Anglin.
736 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
737 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
739 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
741 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
743 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from
744 textutils/configure.in). Suggestion from Paul Eggert.
745 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add nl_langinfo. (also from textutils/configure.in)
747 2000-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
749 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
750 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
751 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
752 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
754 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
756 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
757 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
758 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
760 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
762 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
763 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
764 the underlying strftime.
766 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
768 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.
771 2000-02-02 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
773 * codeset.m4: New file.
774 * iconv.m4: New file.
775 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
777 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
779 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
780 for lib/localcharset.c.
782 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
784 * regex.m4: Make sure re_compile_pattern accepts patterns like `{1'.
786 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
788 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
789 the messages come out on separate lines.
791 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
792 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
793 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.
795 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.
797 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
799 * check-decl.m4: Add getenv to the list.
801 2000-02-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
803 * check-decl.m4: Now that we have the new AC_CHECK_DECLS, use it

809 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
811 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
813 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
814 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
816 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
818 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

830 2000-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
832 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
833 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
834 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
835 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
836 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
837 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
838 Reported by Volker Borchert.
840 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
842 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.
844 2000-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
846 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT): Fix typo that resulted in no
847 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
848 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
850 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
852 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
853 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
854 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
856 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
858 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
860 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
861 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
864 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
866 * lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from
867 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
869 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
871 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
872 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
874 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
876 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
877 as time.h in the compile check.
878 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
879 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
881 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
883 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
885 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
886 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.
888 * fsusage.m4: New file. Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.
889 s/space/ac_fsusage_space/.
890 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Take two parameters.
892 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
893 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
894 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
896 * jm-macros.m4 (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
897 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
898 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
900 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
901 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.
902 (AM_FUNC_STRTOD): Added (from textutils', sh-utils' configure.in).

919 from fileutils' configure.in.
921 * decl.m4: Remove kludgy `test -z $ac_...AC_CHECK_HEADERS(...)' code.
922 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
924 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
925 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
926 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
927 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
928 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
930 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
932 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.
933 Use AC_HEADER_TIME. Volker Borchert reported that OpenBSD-2.3/sparc
934 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
936 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
937 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
939 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
941 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_FUNC_GROUP_MEMBER, jm_FUNC_PUTENV,
942 AM_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME, jm_FUNC_MKTIME,
943 jm_FUNC_GETGROUPS AC_FUNC_VPRINTF, AC_FUNC_ALLOCA,
944 AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG, and jm_SYS_PROC_UPTIME.
946 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
948 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
949 because the latter didn't work.
951 2000-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
953 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.
954 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memcpy and memset.
955 Add these, too: stime strcspn stpcpy strstr strtol strtoul.
957 Add these: euidaccess memcmp mkdir rmdir rpmatch strndup strverscmp.

1003 * search-libs.m4: Escape `$' in $3 of dnl comment. I no longer
1004 remember if this is necessary.

1015 Check for gettimeofday.
1017 1999-12-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
1019 * strftime.m4: Remove kludge, now that I'm using the fixed
1020 autoconf-2.14a-1999-12-20.
1022 1999-12-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
1024 * lstat-slash.m4: New file.
