If you want to + augment (not set) the list of modules, use the + new option '--add-import' instead of '--import'. + User visible incompatible changes --------------------------------- Date Modules Changes +2010-10-05 getdate This module is deprecated. Please use the new + parse-datetime module for the replacement + function parse_datetime(), or help us write + getdate-posix for getdate(). Also, the header + "getdate.h" has been renamed "parse-datetime.h", + and doc/getdate.texi to doc/parse-datetime.texi. + +2010-09-29 sys_wait This module no longer provides the waitpid() + function. If you need this function, you now need + to request the 'waitpid' module. + +2010-09-17 utimens The function gl_futimens is removed, and its + signature has been migrated to fdutimens. Callers + of gl_futimens should change function name, and + callers of fdutimens should swap parameter order. + +2010-09-17 fdutimensat This function has a new signature: the fd now comes + first instead of the dir/name pair, and a new + atflag parameter is added at the end. Old code + should rearrange parameters, and pass 0 for atflag. + +2010-09-13 regex The module is not guaranteeing anymore support for + 64-bit regoff_t on 64-bit systems. The size of + regoff_t will always be 32-bit unless the program + is being configured --with-included-regex. This + may change again in the future once glibc provides + this feature as well. + +2010-09-12 savedir The fdsavedir function is now deprecated. + +2010-09-10 fcntl-h This module now defaults O_CLOEXEC to 0, and + it defaults O_EXEC and O_SEARCH to O_RDONLY. + Use "#if O_CLOEXEC" instead of "#ifdef O_CLOEXEC". + +2010-08-28 realloc This module is deprecated. Use 'realloc-gnu' + instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01. + +2010-08-28 calloc This module is deprecated. Use 'calloc-gnu' + instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01. + +2010-08-28 malloc This module is deprecated. Use 'malloc-gnu' + instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01. + +2010-08-14 memxfrm This module is renamed to amemxfrm. The include + file is renamed to "amemxfrm.h". The function is + renamed to amemxfrm. + +2010-08-09 symlinkat This module now only provides symlinkat; use the + new module 'readlinkat' if needed. + 2010-07-31 ansi-c++-opt If Autoconf >= 2.66 is used, the 'configure' option is now called --disable-c++ rather than --disable-cxx.
