+ posixtm-tests: port to buggy compiler
+ Problem reported by Simon Josefsson in

+ Now of type int_least64_t, not int64_t, both because that's
+ what INT64_C returns and because int_least64_t works even

+ (T): Use INT64_C on constants outside the traditional int range,

+
+ mktime: fix integer overflow in 'configure'-time test
+ * m4/mktime.m4 (gl_FUNC_MKTIME): Do not rely on undefined behavior

+
+ bootstrap: take advantage of POSIX shell features
+
+ The 'bootstrap' script offered by Gnulib script already uses POSIX
+ shell features (like $((...)) arithmetic expansions) that are not
+ supported by legacy Bourne shells like Solaris 10 /bin/sh. This
+ means that bootstrap must already be run using a proper POSIX shell,
+ which will thus provide more features, like ${var#pattern} parameter
+ expansion or inversion of a command exit status with '!'. We can
+ thus use these features to improve the clarity and the performances
+ of the bootstrap script.
+
+ Suggested by Eric Blake.
+
+ * build-aux/bootstrap: Prefer xpg4 parameter expansions over use
+ of sed/expr plus command substitutions, to save some forks. While
+ we are at it, prefer the POSIX $(...) form of command substitution,
+ rather than the legacy form `...` (since the former is visually
+ clearer and interacts better with quoting), and prefer the idiom:
+ "if ! CMD; then ACTION ..."
+ over the idiom:
+ "if CMD; then :; else ACTION ..."
+ which was required by legacy Bourne shells not supporting '!'.
