+ maint.mk: _sc_search_regexp, sc_vulnerable_makefile_CVE-2009-4029: fix
+ Bugs in both of those conspired to make the
+ sc_vulnerable_makefile_CVE-2009-4029 rule 99% useless.
+ _sc_search_regexp's handling of non-empty $in_files would filter
+ out any offending file names. sc_vulnerable_makefile_CVE-2009-4029's
+ choice of in_files value meant there would be no match in most
+ projects, due to the presence of two or more Makefile.in files.
+ * top/maint.mk (_sc_search_regexp) [in_vc_files,in_files]: Clarify.
+ Fix a bug in how a non-empty $$in_files was processed:
+ (sc_vulnerable_makefile_CVE-2009-4029): Fix erroneous use of in_files:
+ in spite of the name, it's a regexp, not a list of file names.

+
+ getloadavg, getopt: fix commentary re configure.in
+ Autoconf is deprecating the name 'configure.in', so change it to
+ to the new name 'configure.ac' in a couple of places.
+ * lib/getloadavg.c: configure.in -> configure.ac, in comment.
+ * m4/getopt.m4 (gl_GETOPT_IFELSE, gl_GETOPT_SUBSTITUTE_HEADER)
+ (gl_PREREQ_GETOPT): Remove obsolete commentary re Emacs configure.in.
+ Emacs has renamed it to configure.ac, and it no longer refers
+ to these macros anyway.
+
+ timespec: mark functions with const attributes
+ * lib/timespec.h (timespec_add, timespec_sub, dtotimespec):
+ Mark with _GL_ATTRIBUTE_CONST.

+
+ canonicalize[-lgpl]: handle "guessing" values when cross-building
+ * m4/canonicalize.m4 (gl_FUNC_CANONICALIZE_FILENAME_MODE)
+ (gl_CANONICALIZE_LGPL): Check whether $gl_cv_func_realpath_works
+ matches "*yes" instead of just "yes". Regression introduced in commit
+ e0bcf6626cde8dad4bfbdc4045c744f0cd8b9e24.

+
+ canonicalize: make the right guess when cross-compiling to GNU
+ * m4/canonicalize.m4 (gl_FUNC_REALPATH_WORKS): Match also "gnu*" to
+ determine whether cross-compiling to glibc systems, so as to
+ include GNU/Hurd.
+
+2012-07-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ timespec-sub: avoid duplicate include
+ * lib/timespec-sub.c: Do not include <config.h> twice.
+ Reported by Juanma Barranquero.

+
+ bootstrap: use a more consistent error reporting scheme
+ * build-aux/bootstrap (warn, die): New.
+ Use them.
+
+2012-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ sys_time: allow too-wide tv_sec
+ * m4/sys_time_h.m4 (gl_HEADER_SYS_TIME_H_BODY): Allow struct
+ timeval even if tv_sec is wider than time_t. This allows
+ OpenBSD 5.1 amd64 and fixes an Emacs porting glitch with utimens.c,
+ as without this patch gnulib replaces struct timeval
+ and OpenBSD futimes therefore has a type mismatch.
+ * doc/posix-headers/sys_time.texi: Mention this.
+
+ pthread: check for both pthread_create and pthread_join
+ * m4/pthread.m4 (gl_PTHREAD_CHECK): Revert previous change, but
+ alter the check so that it tests for both pthread_create and
+ pthread_join. This should be more portable to hosts like OSF/1 5.1.
+ Suggested by Bruno Haible and Richard Yao in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-07/msg00048.html>.
+
+ parse-datetime: doc tuneup
+ * doc/parse-datetime.texi: Index "leap seconds" and fix minor
+ spacing issues.

+
+ do-release-commit-and-tag: fix the previous commit
+ * build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: Actually the test was right,
+ but the comment and the error message were misleading.
+ Fix comment, and improve error message.
+ Perform check first, so that NEWS is not modified uselessly.
+
+ do-release-commit-and-tag: fix typo
+ * build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: Be sure that NEWS does
+ _not_ start with a stub.

+
+ pthread: check for pthread_create, not pthread_join
+ * m4/pthread.m4 (gl_PTHREAD_CHECK): Check for pthread_create, not
+ pthread_join. On FreeBSD 9, pthread_create is in libpthread but
+ pthread_join in libc. I hope this removes the need for all the
+ OSF/1 5.1 pthread_join business. Reported by Richard Yao in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-07/msg00042.html>.

+
+ parse-datetime: fix failure to diagnose invalid input
+ date -d "$(printf '\xb0')" would print 00:00:00 with today's date
+ rather than diagnosing the invalid input. Now it reports this:
+ date: invalid date '\260'
+ * lib/parse-datetime.y (to_uchar): Define.
+ (yylex): Don't sign-extend "other" bytes.
+ * m4/parse-datetime.m4: Require AC_C_INLINE for first use of "inline".
+ Thanks to Bruno Haible for the patch to this file.
+ * tests/test-parse-datetime.c (main): Add a test to trigger the bug.
+ Peter Evans reported the bug in GNU date: http://bugs.gnu.org/11843
+

+
+ bootstrap: do not require now-removed build-aux/missing
+ Now that build-aux/missing is, er, missing, bootstrap would
+ silently fail.
+ * build-aux/bootstrap (gnulib_extra_files): Remove $build_aux/missing
+ from the list, now that (since commit v0.0-7489-gd0f486f) the file is
+ no longer part of gnulib.
+ Diagnose the failure.
+

+
+ alloca: add support for HP NonStop TNS/E native
+ * lib/alloca.in.h (alloca): Support the new host.
+ From a suggestion by Joachim Schmitz in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-06/msg00355.html>.

+
+ fsusage: remove code not needed on non GNU/Linux systems.
+
+ * lib/fsusage.c [STAT_STATVFS || STAT_STATVFS64]:
+ Don't include headers no longer needed in this case.
+ * lib/fsusage.c [STAT_STATVFS &&
+ ! (__linux__ && (__GLIBC__||__UCLIBC__))]: Undefine
+ STAT_STATFS2_FRSIZE to exclude code not used in this case.
+
+2012-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ fsusage: include files needed for glibc 2.6 fallback
+ * lib/fsusage.c [STAT_STATVFS || STAT_STATVFS64]:
+ Include <sys/param.h>, <sys/mount.h>, <sys/vfs.h>
+ as they are needed for the 2.6 < glibc/Linux < 2.6.36 fallback.
+ Problem reported by Ludovic Courtès in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-07/msg00005.html>.
+
+ fsusage: avoid needless check on GNU/Linux
+ * m4/fsusage.m4 (gl_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Omit STAT_STATFS3_OSF1 check
+ on GNU/Linux systems, since it can't possibly work.
