+ net_if: give more details about the bug being fixed
+ * doc/posix-headers/net_if.texi: Add clarification.

+
+ net_if: new module
+ * modules/net_if: New module, borrowing ideas from netinet_in.
+ * m4/net_if_h.m4: New file.
+ * lib/net_if.in.h: Likewise.
+ * doc/posix-headers/net_if.texi (net/if.h): Document it.
+ * MODULES.html.sh (lacking POSIX:2008): Likewise.
+ * tests/test-net_if.c: Make function checks conditional.

+ readutmp: fix non-portable UT_PID use
+ * lib/readutmp.c (desirable_utmp_entry) <READ_UTMP_CHECK_PIDS>:
+ Use `UT_PID (u) > 0' as absolute condition.

+
+ 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>.

+
+ 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.

+ stdnoreturn: port to newer GCCs
+ * m4/stdnoreturn.m4 (gl_STDNORETURN_H): Avoid problems with
+ bleeding-edge GCC that complains about 'int _Noreturn foo (void);'.
+ Problem reported by Jim Meyering in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00121.html>.
+ Also, rename the 'test' function to a void a clash with the
+ already-supplied 'main' function; this fixes a bug that incorrectly
+ rejected GCC 4.7.1's <stdnoreturn.h>.
+ * doc/posix-headers/stdnoreturn.texi (stdnoreturn.h):
+ Document GCC problem.

+ execinfo: new module
+ This is for Emacs. Currently, it provides a no-effect stub
+ on all platforms where it does not already work.
+ It already works on glibc-based systems, and on Solaris 11.
+ * lib/execinfo.c, lib/execinfo.in.h, m4/execinfo.m4, modules/execinfo:
+ New files.

+ extern-inline: support old GCC 'inline'
+ * m4/extern-inline.m4 (gl_EXTERN_INLINE): Use pre-C99 GCC 'inline'
+ if available. This applies to GCC versions 2.7 through 4.2, or
+ when newer GCC is using -fgnu89-inline. The goal is to address
+ some of the performance issues mentioned by Bruno Haible in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00097.html>.
