- strdup: undeprecate, IRIX 6.5 needs it
- * modules/strdup (Status): No longer obsolete.
- * doc/posix-functions/strdup.texi (strdup): Document this.

+
+ maint.mk: compute $(gpg_key_ID) more portably
+ * top/maint.mk (gpg_key_ID): Use awk in place of sed '{...;...;}'.
+ That use of sed is not portable to some fringe systems.
+ Reported by Paul Eggert in
+ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/30793/focus=30802

+
+ mktime: sync from glibc
+ * config/srclist.txt: Uncomment mktime.c.
+ * lib/mktime.c: Sync from glibc master. This incorporates 3 changes.
+ First, indent with tabs, since glibc uses tabs and doesn't want to
+ change and we'd rather be identical to glibc. Also, two small
+ coding changes:
+ (isdst_differ): Use &&, not &, as && is the usual style.
+ (__mktime_internal): Rename local var from abs_diff to approx_abs_diff
+ for clarity.

+
+ announce-gen: du -h is more portable than du --human
+ * build-aux/announce-gen (sizes): Invoke du with -h instead
+ of --human. Accept leading white space in its output.
+
+2012-05-23 Akim Demaille <akim@lrde.epita.fr>
+
+ announce-gen: Improve diagnostics.
+ * build-aux/announce-gen: When parsing command line options,
+ prefer "announce-gen: option --release-type requires an argument"
+ to "Option release-type requires an argument".

+
+ maint.mk: gpg_key_ID: use sed more portably
+ * top/maint.mk (gpg_key_ID): End sed block with a semicolon before
+ the closing brace.
+ (refresh-po): Fuse two sed invocations into one.

+
+ gitlog-to-changelog: support the log message format used in Bison.
+ * build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog: Support --strip-tab and
+ --strip-cherry-picked.

+
+ poll/select: prevent busy-waiting. SwitchToThread() only gives away
+ the rest of the current time slice to another thread in the current
+ process. So if the thread that feeds the file decscriptor we're
+ polling is not in the current process, we get busy-waiting.
+ * lib/poll.c: Use SleepEx(1, TRUE) instead of SwitchToThread().
+ Patch from Theodore Leblond.
+ * lib/select.c: Split polling out of the loop that sets the output
+ fd_sets. Check for zero result and loop if the wait timeout is
+ infinite.
