+       maint: correct misuse of "a" and "an"
+       * doc/regex.texi (Collating Symbol Operators): s/an close.../a close/
+       * lib/argp-help.c: "an docum...": s/an/a/
+       * lib/argp-parse.c: "An vector": s/An/A/
+       * lib/execute.c: "an native": s/an/a/
+       * lib/spawn-pipe.c: Likewise.

+       intprops: work around IRIX 6.5 cc bug with 0u - 0u + -1
+       See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2011-05/msg00406.html
+       * lib/intprops.h (_GL_INT_NEGATE_CONVERT): New macro.
+       (_GL_INT_SIGNED, _GL_INT_MAXIMUM, _GL_DIVIDE_OVERFLOW):
+       (_GL_REMAINDER_OVERFLOW): Use it.
+
+       intprops: work around C compiler bugs
+       * lib/intprops.h (INT_MULTIPLY_RANGE_OVERFLOW): Work around compiler
+       bug in Sun C 5.11 2010/08/13 and other compilers; see
+       <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2011-05/msg00401.html>.
+
+       intprops: TYPE_IS_INTEGER, TYPE_SIGNED not integer constant exprs
+       * doc/intprops.texi (Integer Type Determination): Fix
+       documentation for TYPE_IS_INTEGER: it returns an constant
+       expression, not an integer constant expression.  Fix doc for
+       TYPE_SIGNED: it returns an integer constant expression only if its
+       argument is an integer type.  (TYPE_IS_INTEGER is the same, but is
+       hardly worth documented that way....)

+
+       fnmatch: avoid compiler warning
+       * lib/fnmatch_loop.c (FCT): Use correct type.
+       Reported by Matthias Bolte.

+
+       maint.mk: three new prohibit_<HDR>_without_use rules
+       * top/maint.mk (sc_prohibit_stdio--_without_use): New rule.
+       (sc_prohibit_stdio-safer_without_use): Likewise.
+       (sc_prohibit_xfreopen_without_use): Likewise.

+
+       announce-gen: fail if the NEWS delta is empty
+       If there's nothing noteworthy in NEWS, then either you forgot
+       or you shouldn't be releasing.
+       * build-aux/announce-gen: Die if the NEWS delta is effectively empty.
+
+2011-05-17  Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
+
+       * top/maint.mk (_gl_tight_scope:): Automatically exclude compiler
+       reserved symbols starting with double underscore from the check.
