+
+ fts: reduce two or more trailing spaces to just one, usually
+ * lib/fts.c (fts_open): Upon initialization, if a name ends in two
+ or more slashes, trim all but the final one. But if a name consists
+ solely of two slashes, don't modify it. If it consists solely of
+ three or more slashes, strip all but one.
+
+ This is part of the solution to a minor problem with rm:
+ it would print a bogus ELOOP diagnostic when failing to remove
+ the slash-decorated name of a symlink-to-directory:
+
+ $ mkdir d && ln -s d s && env rm -r s/
+ rm: cannot remove 's': Too many levels of symbolic links
+
+ With the change below and a trivial don't-trim-trailing-slashes
+ adjustment to remove.c, it does this:
+
+ $ env rm -r s/
+ rm: cannot remove 's/': Not a directory
+
+ Improved by: Eric Blake
+
+ fts: when there is no risk of overlap, use memcpy, not memmove
+ * lib/fts.c (fts_alloc): Fix unjustified memcopy: s/memmove/memcpy/

+ stdbool: be more compatible with mixed C/C++ compiles
+ * lib/stdbool.in.h (_Bool, true, false) [__cplusplus]:
+ Define to bool, true, false, respectively, as GCC's builtin
+ stdbool.h does. Problem reported by Michael Goffioul in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00143.html>.

+ * tests/test-vc-list-files-git.sh: There's already a test for
+ a working git, just below.

+ doc: remove fdl-1.2.texi
+ It is no longer used or maintained, and its use of @acronym
+ is problematic. See the thread containing
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00134.html>.
+ * config/srclist.txt: Remove doc/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.texi.
+ * doc/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.texi: Remove.
+
+ execinfo: port to FreeBSD
+ * m4/execinfo.m4 (gl_EXECINFO_H): Set LIB_EXECINFO to -lexecinfo
+ if needed, as in FreeBSD. Reported by Bastien Roucariès in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00113.html>.
+ * modules/execinfo (Link): Add $(LIB_EXECINFO).

+
+ xstrtol.h: avoid "_Noreturn is not at beginning of declaration" warning
+ * lib/xstrtol.h: Put "_Noreturn" before "void" in declaration,
+ to placate gcc's -Wold-style-declaration.
