+
+2008-09-28 sockets When using this module, you now need to link with
+ $(LIBSOCKET).
+
+2008-09-24 sys_select The limitation on `select', introduced 2008-09-23,
+ was removed. sys_select now includes a select
+ wrapper for Winsock. The wrapper expects socket
+ and file descriptors to be compatible as arranged
+ by the sys_socket on MinGW.
+
+2008-09-23 sys_socket Under Windows (MinGW), the module now adds
+ wrappers around Winsock functions, so that
+ socket descriptors are now compatible with
+ file descriptors. In general, this change
+ will simply improve your code's portability
+ between POSIX platforms and Windows. In
+ particular, you will be able to use ioctl and
+ close instead of ioctlsocket and closesocket,
+ and test errno instead of WSAGetLastError ().
+ On the other hand, you have to audit your code to
+ remove usage of these Winsock-specific functions.
+
+ This change does not remove the need to call
+ the gl_sockets_startup function from the sockets
+ gnulib module. Also, for now select is disabled
+ when you include the sys_socket module; while
+ the functionality will be restored soon, for
+ efficiency it is suggested to use the poll system
+ poll system call and gnulib module instead.
+
+2008-09-13 EOVERFLOW The module is removed. Use module errno instead.
+
+2008-09-01 filename The module does not define the function
+ concatenated_filename any more. To get an
+ equivalent function, use function
+ xconcatenated_filename from module
+ 'xconcat-filename'.
+
+2008-08-31 havelib On Solaris, when searching for 64-bit mode
+ libraries the directory $prefix/lib is now ignored.
+ Instead the directory $prefix/lib/64 is searched.
+ You may need to create a symbolic link for
+ $prefix/lib/64 if you have 64-bit libraries
+ installed in $prefix/lib.
+
+2008-08-19 strverscmp The include file is changed from "strverscmp.h"
+ to <string.h>.
+
+2008-08-14 lock The include file is changed from "lock.h"
+ to "glthread/lock.h".
+ tls The include file is changed from "tls.h"
+ to "glthread/tls.h".
+
+2008-07-17 c-stack The module now requires the addition of
+ $(LIBCSTACK) or $(LTLIBCSTACK) in Makefile.am,
+ since it may depend on linking with libsigsegv.
+
+2008-07-07 isnanf-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnanf.h"
+ to "isnanf-nolibm.h".
+ isnand-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnand.h"
+ to "isnand-nolibm.h".
+
+2008-06-10 execute The execute function takes an additional termsigp
+ argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
+ wait-process The wait_subprocess function takes an additional
+ termsigp argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
+
+2008-05-10 linebreak The module is split into several modules unilbrk/*.
+ The include file is changed from "linebreak.h" to
+ "unilbrk.h". Two functions are renamed:
+ mbs_possible_linebreaks -> ulc_possible_linebreaks
+ mbs_width_linebreaks -> ulc_width_linebreaks
+
+2008-04-28 rpmatch The include file is now <stdlib.h>.
+
+2008-04-28 inet_ntop The include file is changed from "inet_ntop.h"
+ to <arpa/inet.h>.
+
+2008-04-28 inet_pton The include file is changed from "inet_pton.h"
+ to <arpa/inet.h>.
+
+2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
+ now increases by 1 after ungetc.
+
+2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
+ isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
+ "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
+ defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
+
+2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
+ implementations; clients that use controlled
+ needles and thus do not care about worst-case
+ efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
+ module instead for smaller code size.
+
+2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
+ supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
+ expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
+ Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
+ <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
+
+2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
+ implementations; clients that use controlled
+ needles and thus do not care about worst-case
+ efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
+ module instead for smaller code size.
+
+2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
+ <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
+ longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
+ module if you need it.
+
+2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
+ to <unistd.h>.
+
+2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
+ <strings.h>.
+
+2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
+ GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
+ A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
+ module description for the applicable license.
+
+2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
+ locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
+ "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
+
+2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
+ Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
+ Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
+ areadlink_with_size.
+
+2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
+ The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
+ and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
+
+2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
+
+2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
+ Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
+
2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
error to standard error; that is now the
caller's responsibility. It returns an
