+
+ maint.mk: avoid obscure sc_copyright_check failure in coreutils
+ * top/maint.mk (v_etc_file): Prepend $(gnulib_dir)/, to avoid
+ false positives (whose names may be ill-chosen) when searching

+ would cause a false-positive.
+
+ avoid coreutils "make distcheck" failure
+ Coreutils tests with an absolute build directory name that contains
+ a space. Not quoting this directory name caused a failure.
+ * tests/test-vc-list-files-git.sh: Quote PATH dir name.
+ * tests/test-vc-list-files-cvs.sh: Likewise.

+ * gnulib-tool: When collecting the m4dirs in a package that does not
+ have a Makefile.am, eliminate those directories that contain no
+ gnulib-cache.m4. Fix expression that counts these directories.

+
+ fcntl-h, etc.: prefer O_SEARCH to O_RDONLY when applicable
+
+ POSIX 2008 specifies a new 'open' flag O_SEARCH, which can be used
+ when one needs search access to a directory but not read access.
+ On systems where it is available, it works in some cases where
+ O_RDONLY does not, namely on directories that are searchable but
+ not readable, and which need only to be searchable. If O_SEARCH
+ is not available, fall back to the traditional method of using
+ O_RDONLY.
+
+ * lib/fcntl.in.h (O_SEARCH): #define to O_RDONLY if not defined.
+ * lib/chdir-long.c (cdb_advance_fd): Use O_SEARCH, not O_RDONLY,
+ when opening a directory that needs only to be searchable.
+ * lib/chdir-safer.c (chdir_no_follow): Likewise.
+ * lib/fts.c (diropen, fts_open, fd_ring_check): Likewise.
+ * lib/openat-proc.c (openat_proc_name): Likewise.
+ * lib/openat.c (openat_needs_fchdir): Likewise.
