+2011-07-24 close This module no longer pulls in the 'fclose' module.
+ If your code creates a socket descriptor using
+ socket() or accept(), then a FILE stream referring
+ to it using fdopen(), then in order to close this
+ stream, you need the 'fclose' module.
+
+2011-07-12 arg-nonnull Renamed to snippet/arg-nonnull.
+ c++defs Renamed to snippet/c++defs.
+ link-warning Renamed to snippet/link-warning.
+ unused-parameter Renamed to snippet/unused-parameter.
+ warn-on-use Renamed to snippet/warn-on-use.
+
+2011-06-15 verify verify_true (V) is deprecated; please use
+ verify_expr (V, 1) instead.
+
+2011-06-05 ansi-c++-opt When a C++ compiler is not found, the variable CXX
+ is now set to "no", not to ":".
+
+2011-05-11 group-member The include file is changed from "group-member.h"
+ to <unistd.h>.
+
+2011-05-02 exit The module is removed. It was deprecated
+ on 2010-03-05. Use 'stdlib' directly instead.
+
+2011-04-27 mgetgroups The 'xgetgroups' function has been split into
+ a new 'xgetgroups' module.
+
+2011-04-27 save-cwd This module pulls in fewer dependencies by
+ default; to retain robust handling of directories
+ with an absolute name longer than PATH_MAX, you
+ must now explicitly include the 'getcwd' module.
+
+2011-04-19 close-hook This module has been renamed to 'fd-hook' and
+ generalized.
+
+2011-03-08 regex-quote The last argument is no longer an 'int cflags'
+ but instead a pointer to a previously constructed
+ 'struct regex_quote_spec'.
+
+2011-02-25 dirname These modules no longer put #defines for the
+ dirname-lgpl following symbols into <config.h>: ISSLASH,
+ backupfile FILE_SYSTEM_ACCEPTS_DRIVE_LETTER_PREFIX,
+ lstat FILE_SYSTEM_BACKSLASH_IS_FILE_NAME_SEPARATOR,
+ openat FILE_SYSTEM_DRIVE_PREFIX_CAN_BE_RELATIVE.
+ remove Applications that need ISSLASH can include the new
+ rmdir header dosname.h.
+ savewd
+ stat
+ unlink
+
+2011-02-14 getloadavg This module no longer #defines C_GETLOADAVG or
+ HAVE_GETLOADAVG, as the application no longer needs
+ to worry about how getloadavg is defined. It no
+ longer defines the obsolete symbol NLIST_NAME_UNION
+ (which should have been internal to the module
+ anyway). Also, support for setgid use has been
+ removed, as nobody seems to be using it; thus
+ GETLOADAVG_PRIVILEGED is no longer #defined and
+ KMEM_GROUP and NEED_SETGID are no longer
+ substituted for.
+
+2011-02-08 stdlib Unless the random_r module is also used, this
+ module no longer guarantees that the following are
+ defined: struct random_data, RAND_MAX, random_r,
+ srandom_r, initstate_r, setstate_r.
+
+2011-02-08 wctype-h This module no longer provides the iswblank()
+ function. If you need this function, you now need
+ to request the 'iswblank' module.
+
+2011-02-07 wctype This module is renamed to wctype-h.
+
+2011-01-18 multiarch This no longer #defines AA_APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD;
+ instead, use the shell var APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD.
+
+2010-12-10 pipe This module is renamed to spawn-pipe. The include
+ file is renamed to "spawn-pipe.h".
+
+2010-10-05 getdate This module is deprecated. Please use the new
+ parse-datetime module for the replacement
+ function parse_datetime(), or help us write
+ getdate-posix for getdate(). Also, the header
+ "getdate.h" has been renamed "parse-datetime.h",
+ and doc/getdate.texi to doc/parse-datetime.texi.
+
+2010-09-29 sys_wait This module no longer provides the waitpid()
+ function. If you need this function, you now need
+ to request the 'waitpid' module.
+
+2010-09-17 utimens The function gl_futimens is removed, and its
+ signature has been migrated to fdutimens. Callers
+ of gl_futimens should change function name, and
+ callers of fdutimens should swap parameter order.
+
+2010-09-17 fdutimensat This function has a new signature: the fd now comes
+ first instead of the dir/name pair, and a new
+ atflag parameter is added at the end. Old code
+ should rearrange parameters, and pass 0 for atflag.
+
+2010-09-13 regex The module is not guaranteeing anymore support for
+ 64-bit regoff_t on 64-bit systems. The size of
+ regoff_t will always be 32-bit unless the program
+ is being configured --with-included-regex. This
+ may change again in the future once glibc provides
+ this feature as well.
+
+2010-09-12 savedir The fdsavedir function is now deprecated.
+
+2010-09-10 fcntl-h This module now defaults O_CLOEXEC to 0, and
+ it defaults O_EXEC and O_SEARCH to O_RDONLY.
+ Use "#if O_CLOEXEC" instead of "#ifdef O_CLOEXEC".
+
+2010-08-28 realloc This module is deprecated. Use 'realloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-28 calloc This module is deprecated. Use 'calloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-28 malloc This module is deprecated. Use 'malloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-14 memxfrm This module is renamed to amemxfrm. The include
+ file is renamed to "amemxfrm.h". The function is
+ renamed to amemxfrm.
+
+2010-08-09 symlinkat This module now only provides symlinkat; use the
+ new module 'readlinkat' if needed.
+
+2010-07-31 ansi-c++-opt If Autoconf >= 2.66 is used, the 'configure'
+ option is now called --disable-c++ rather than
+ --disable-cxx.
+
+2010-04-02 maintainer-makefile
+ The macro _prohibit_regexp has been revamped into
+ a new macro _sc_search_regexp; custom syntax
+ checks in your cfg.mk will need to be rewritten.
+
+2010-03-28 lib-ignore This module now provides a variable
+ IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES_CFLAGS that you should
+ add to LDFLAGS (when linking C programs only) or
+ CFLAGS yourself. It is no longer added to LDFLAGS
+ automatically.
+
+2010-03-18 pty This module now only declares the pty.h header.
+ Use the new modules 'forkpty' or 'openpty' to
+ get the functions that were previously provided.
+
+2010-03-05 exit This module is deprecated, use 'stdlib' directly
+ instead. It will be removed 2011-01-01.
+
+2009-12-13 sublist The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations. Use
+ module 'xsublist' and include file "gl_xsublist.h"
+ instead.
+
+2009-12-13 list The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
+ Use module 'xlist' and include file "gl_xlist.h"
+ instead.
+
+2009-12-13 oset The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
+ Use module 'xoset' and include file "gl_xoset.h"
+ instead.
+
+2009-12-10 * Most source code files have been converted to
+ indentation by spaces (rather than tabs). Patches
+ of gnulib source code needs to be updated.
+
+2009-12-09 link-warning The Makefile rules that use $(LINK_WARNING_H) now
+ must contain an explicit dependency on
+ $(LINK_WARNING_H).
+
+2009-11-12 getgroups These functions now use a signature of gid_t,
+ getugroups rather than GETGROUPS_T. This probably has no
+ effect except on very old platforms.
+
+2009-11-04 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
+ 'suffixlen' argument. You can safely pass 0.
+
+2009-11-04 nproc The num_processors function now takes an argument.
+
+2009-11-02 inet_pton The use of this module now requires linking with
+ $(INET_PTON_LIB).
+
+2009-11-02 inet_ntop The use of this module now requires linking with
+ $(INET_NTOP_LIB).
+
+2009-10-10 utimens The use of this module now requires linking with
+ $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).
+
+2009-09-16 canonicalize-lgpl
+ The include file is changed from "canonicalize.h"
+ to <stdlib.h>.
+
+2009-09-04 link-follow The macro LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK is now tri-state,
+ rather than only defined to 1.
+
+2009-09-03 openat The include files are standardized to POSIX 2008.
+ For openat, include <fcntl.h>; for
+ fchmodat, fstatat, and mkdirat, include
+ <sys/stat.h>; for fchownat and unlinkat,
+ include <unistd.h>. For all other
+ functions provided by this module,
+ continue to include "openat.h".
+
+2009-08-30 striconveh The functions mem_cd_iconveh and str_cd_iconveh
+ now take an 'iconveh_t *' argument instead of three
+ iconv_t arguments.
+
+2009-08-23 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
+ 'flags' argument. You can safely pass 0.
+
+2009-08-12 getopt This module is deprecated. Please choose among
+ getopt-posix and getopt-gnu. getopt-gnu provides
+ "long options" and "options with optional
+ arguments", getopt-posix doesn't.
+
+2009-06-25 fpurge The include file is changed from "fpurge.h" to
+ <stdio.h>.

+ modules/uniconv/u16-conv-from-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u32-conv-from-enc
+ The calling convention of the functions
+ u*_conv_from_encoding is changed.

+2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-to-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u16-conv-to-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u32-conv-to-enc
+ The calling convention of the functions
+ u*_conv_to_encoding is changed.
+
+2009-04-24 maintainer-makefile
+ The maint.mk file was copied from
+ coreutils, and the old
+ coverage/gettext/indent rules were
+ re-added. If you used 'make syntax-check'
+ this will add several new checks. If some
+ new check is annoying, add the name of the
+ checks to 'local-checks-to-skip' in your
+ cfg.mk.
+
+2009-04-01 visibility Renamed to lib-symbol-visibility.
+
+2009-04-01 ld-version-script Renamed to lib-symbol-versions.
+
+2009-03-20 close The substituted variable LIB_CLOSE is removed.
+
+2009-03-05 filevercmp Move hidden files up in ordering.
+
+2009-01-22 c-strtod This function no longer calls xalloc_die(). If
+ c-strtold you want to exit the program in case of out-of-
+ memory, the calling function needs to arrange
+ for it, like this:
+ errno = 0;
+ val = c_strtod (...);
+ if (val == 0 && errno == ENOMEM)
+ xalloc_die ();
+
+2009-01-17 relocatable-prog In the Makefile.am or Makefile.in, you now also
+ need to set RELOCATABLE_STRIP = :.
+
+2008-12-22 getaddrinfo When using this module, you now need to link with
+ canon-host $(GETADDRINFO_LIB).
+
+2008-12-21 mbiter The header files "mbiter.h", "mbuiter.h",
+ mbuiter "mbfile.h" can now be included without checking
+ mbfile HAVE_MBRTOWC. The macro HAVE_MBRTOWC will no
+ longer be defined by these modules in a year. If
+ you want to continue to use it, you need to invoke
+ AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC yourself.
+
+2008-11-11 warnings This module subsumes the file m4/warning.m4 which
+ was removed.
+
+2008-10-20 lstat The include file is changed from "lstat.h" to
+ <sys/stat.h>.
+
+2008-10-20 getaddrinfo The include file is changed from "getaddrinfo.h"
+ to <netdb.h>.

+ to <unistd.h>.
+
+2008-09-28 sockets When using this module, you now need to link with
+ $(LIBSOCKET).
+
+2008-09-24 sys_select The limitation on `select', introduced 2008-09-23,
+ was removed. sys_select now includes a select
+ wrapper for Winsock. The wrapper expects socket
+ and file descriptors to be compatible as arranged
+ by the sys_socket on MinGW.
