+ bootstrap: handle perl-5.11's changed --version output
+ * build-aux/bootstrap (get_version): Handle perl separately,
+ since perl-5.11's --version output is different.
+
+2009-11-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
+
+ userspec: depend on the inttostr module, too
+ * modules/userspec (Depends-on): Add inttostr.
+
+ userspec: disallow an ID that maps to (uid_t)-1 or (gid_t)-1
+ * lib/userspec.c (parse_with_separator): Do not accept a user ID
+ number of MAXUID when it evaluates to (uid_t) -1.
+ Likewise for group ID. Reported by Matt McCutchen in
+ <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28113>
+
+ userspec: reformat to use spaces, not TABs
+ * lib/userspec.c: Expand TABs to spaces.
+ Add Emacs' "indent-tabs-mode: nil" hint.

+
+ getopt-gnu: flush out another BSD bug
+ * m4/getopt.m4 (gl_GETOPT_CHECK_HEADERS): Test for the bug.
+ * tests/test-getopt.c (main): Check POSIXLY_CORRECT first, to
+ flush out BSD bug.
+ * tests/test-getopt.h (test_getopt): End lists with NULL.
+ * tests/test-getopt_long.h (test_getopt_long): Likewise.
+ (test_getopt_long_posix): Enhance test.
+ * modules/getopt-posix-tests (Depends-on): Add stdbool.
+ * doc/glibc-functions/getopt_long.texi (getopt_long): Mention
+ getopt-gnu.
+ * doc/glibc-functions/getopt_long_only.texi (getopt_long_only):
+ Likewise.

+
+ * modules/idpriv-droptemp-tests (Notice): Fix text.

+
+ test-xalloc-die: avoid spurious failure due to libtool argv difference
+ In a libtool-enabled project, this test would fail due to a difference
+ in the emitted program name, e.g.,
+ -test-xalloc-die: memory exhausted
+ +/tmp/.../tests/.libs/lt-test-xalloc-die: memory exhausted
+ Use program to avoid that.
+ * modules/xalloc-die-tests (Depends-on): Add progname.
+ * tests/test-xalloc-die.c: Include progname.h".
+ (program_name): Remove decl.
+ (main): Call set_program_name.
+ * tests/test-xalloc-die.sh (compare): Remove unnecessary ${EXE}.
+

+
+ w32sock: leave win32 error in place.
+ * lib/w32sock.h (set_winsock_errno): Do not call WSASetLastError.

+
+ init.sh: suggest to use skip_ and fail_ functions in comments
+ * tests/init.sh: Add a sentence.
+
+2009-11-25 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+ init.sh: add documentation in comments
+ * tests/init.sh: Add some developer and user documentation.

+
+ init.sh: accommodate even those who specify bogus srcdir manually
+ * tests/init.sh: Normally, srcdir is guaranteed by automake and
+ configure-time tests to be sanitized, so that there is no need to
+ use "$srcdir" in Makefile rules and shell scripts. Using $srcdir
+ (with no double quotes) suffices. However, since tests may be
+ invoked manually, and since you may explicitly set srcdir to the
+ name of a directory containing spaces, do quote its uses here.
+ * tests/test-pread.sh: Likewise.
+ Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+
+ test-pread.sh: avoid diagnostics for those who ignore SIGPIPE
+ * tests/test-pread.sh: Write no data into the pipe, because
+ test-pread actually reads none. This avoids a diagnostic,
+ "bash: echo: write error: Broken pipe", that arises in the unusual
+ event something is ignoring SIGPIPE, and might be interpreted
+ as some sort of failure. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
2009-11-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
+ test-pread: cover failure with ESPIPE and EINVAL
+ * tests/test-pread.c (main): Test for failure, too.
+ * tests/test-pread.sh: Invoke with stdin on a pipe.
+ Suggested by Eric Blake.
+
+ pread: improvement and fix
+ * modules/pread (Depends-on): Depend on lseek, for portability to
+ e.g., mingw. Suggested by Eric Blake.
+ * lib/pread.c (__libc_read): Define. Reported by Richard W.M. Jones.
+
unistd.in.h: correct declaration of pread
* lib/unistd.in.h: Correct type of "buf" parameter: void*, not char*
Reported by Richard W.M. Jones.
