 Date        Modules         Changes
 
+2008-11-11  warnings        This module subsumes the file m4/warning.m4 which
+                            was removed.
+
+2008-10-20  lstat           The include file is changed from "lstat.h" to
+                            <sys/stat.h>.
+
+2008-10-20  getaddrinfo     The include file is changed from "getaddrinfo.h"
+                            to <netdb.h>.
+
+2008-10-19  isnanf          The include file is changed from "isnanf.h" to
+                            <math.h>.
+            isnand          The include file is changed from "isnand.h" to
+                            <math.h>.
+            isnanl          The include file is changed from "isnanl.h" to
+                            <math.h>.
+
+2008-10-18  lchmod          The include file is changed from "lchmod.h" to
+                            <sys/stat.h>.
+
+2008-10-18  dirfd           The include file is changed from "dirfd.h" to
+                            <dirent.h>.
+
+2008-10-18  euidaccess      The include file is changed from "euidaccess.h"
+                            to <unistd.h>.
+
+2008-10-18  getdomainname   The include file is changed from "getdomainname.h"
+                            to <unistd.h>.
+
+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>.
