+	openat: test for fstatat (..., 0) bug
+	Further testing with tar suggests that fstatat (..., 0)
+	does not work in general, on AIX 7.1; see
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2011-09/msg00023.html>.
+	So, give up entirely on AIX 7.1's fstatat, and fall back on our
+	replacement fstatat (which is what older AIX releases were using
+	anyway).
+	* lib/fstatat.c (fstatat) [HAVE_FSTATAT]: Do not undef.  The only
+	use is now changed to orig_fstatat.  This was probably the right
+	thing to do anyway.
+	(FSTATAT_AT_FDCWD_0_BROKEN): Remove; no longer used.
+	(rpl_fstatat) [FSTATAT_ZERO_FLAG_BROKEN]: Remove.
+	(rpl_fstatat): Simplify, assuming !FSTATAT_ZERO_FLAG_BROKEN.
+	(AT_FUNC_NAME) [FSTATAT_ZERO_FLAG_BROKEN]: Now rpl_fstatat.
+	* m4/openat.m4 (gl_FUNC_FSTATAT): Test for the more-general bug
+	and define FSTATAT_ZERO_FLAG_BROKEN, not FSTATAT_AT_FDCWD_0_BROKEN,
+	if the bug is found.
+
+	openat: test for fstatat (AT_FDCWD, ..., 0) bug
+	This tests for another fstatat bug on AIX 7.1:
+	fstatat (AT_FDCWD, ..., 0) does not work.  See
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2011-09/msg00015.html>.
+	* lib/fstatat.c (FSTATAT_AT_FDCWD_0_BROKEN)
+	(LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK): Default to 0.
+	(rpl_fstatat): Adjust so that it works around either (or both)
+	bugs if present.
+	* m4/openat.m4 (gl_FUNC_FSTATAT): Test for this fstatat bug.

+
+	* doc/regex.texi (Character Class Operators): Avoid literal ":"
+	in index entries.
+
+2011-09-02  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+	Allow the user to override the choice of AR, ARFLAGS, RANLIB.
+	* m4/gnulib-common.m4 (gl_PROG_AR_RANLIB): Don't override the given
+	values of AR, ARFLAGS, RANLIB.
+	Reported by John W. Eaton <jwe@gnu.org> for Octave.
+
+2011-09-02  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+	Find 'ar' program that fits with --host argument.
+	* m4/gnulib-common.m4 (gl_PROG_AR_RANLIB): Use AC_CHECK_TOOL.

+
+	tests: init.sh: Support any non-GNU diff.
+	* tests/init.sh (compare): If "diff -c" is supported but "diff -u" is
+	not, use "diff -c". Useful on AIX 6.1, HP-UX 11.31, OSF/1 5.1,
+	Solaris 8.

 	tests: init.sh: work also with any non-GNU diff that supports -u
 	* tests/init.sh: Relax check for diff -u support.
 	Rather than checking for GNU diff via --version, simply check
 	for support for -u itself.  Useful at least on OpenBSD 4.9,
-	AIX 7.1, IRIX 6.5 and Solaris 10.
+	AIX 7.1, IRIX 6.5, and Solaris 10.
