+ fpending: port to recent Cygwin change to stdio_ext.h
+ Reported by LRN in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2013-08/msg00028.html>.
+ * lib/fpending.h: Don't worry about HAVE_DECL___FPENDING;
+ just declare __fpending unless it's a macro.
+ A duplicate decl shouldn't hurt.
+ * m4/fpending.m4 (gl_FUNC_FPENDING): Check that an __fpending
+ call compiles and links, instead of separately checking for
+ decl and lib function.
+ * modules/fpending (configure-ac):
+ Adjust to fpending.m4's renaming of shell variable.

+
+ sys_time: port to OpenBSD
+ * lib/sys_time.in.h: Simply delegate to the system's header
+ in the BSDish cases as well. Problem reported by Mike Miller in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2013-08/msg00016.html>.
+ * tests/test-sys_select.c, tests/test-sys_time.c (verify_tv_sec_type):
+ Allow platforms like 64-bit OpenBSD where timeval's tv_sec is
+ wider than time_t.

+
+ bootstrap: support checksum utils having -c but not --status
+ * build-aux/bootstrap: Only look for sha1sum if updating po files.
+ Add sha1 to the list of supported checksum utils since it's now
+ supported through adjustments below.
+ (update_po_files): Remove the use of --status
+ in a way that will suppress all error messages, but since this is
+ only used to minimize updates, it shouldn't cause an issue.
+ Exit early if there is a problem updating the po file checksums.
+ (find_tool): Remove the check for --version support as this
+ is optional as per commit 86186b17. Don't even check for the
+ presence of the command as if that is needed, it's supported
+ through configuring prerequisites in bootstrap.conf.
+ Prompt that when a tool isn't found, one can define an environment
+ variable to add to the hardcoded search list.

+
+ regex: port to non-glibc/lock-using systems
+ Since 29-05-2013 commit, 55ba71f4, compilation on a non-glibc
+ system with GNULIB_LOCK would fail due to absence of the
+ included "glthread/lock.h". This would affect any package
+ for which the "lock" module is used only by the regex module,
+ and not explicitly used.
+ * m4/regex.m4 (gl_PREREQ_REGEX): Require gl_GLIBC21.
+ * modules/regex (Depends-on) [!GLIBC && $ac_use_included_regex]:
+ Add a dependency on the "lock" module.

+
+ tests/nap.h: use an adaptive delay to avoid ctime update issues
+ The recent change in nap.h (5191133e) decreased the probability of lost
+ races to about a third, however such problems could still be observed
+ in virtual machines and openSUSE's OBS.
+ Before, nap() detected the needed time once empirically and then used
+ that delay (together with a small correction multiplier) in further
+ calls. This problem has been reported and discussed several times,
+ including guesses about possible kernel issues:
+ https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2013-04/msg00071.html
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2012-03/msg00088.html

+ https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-11/msg00007.html
+ Now, nap() avoids the race alltogether by verifying on a reference
+ file whether a timestamp difference has happened.
+ * tests/nap.h (nap_fd): Define file descriptor variable for the
+ witness file.
+ (nap_works): Change return value to bool. Change passing
+ the old file's status by value instead of by reference as this function
+ does no longer update that timestamp; rename the function argument from
+ st to old_st. Remove the local variables cdiff and mdiff because that
+ function now returns true/false instead of the precise delay.
+ (guess_delay): Remove function.
+ (clear_tmp_file): Add new function to close and unlink the witness file.
+ (nap): Instead of re-using the delay which has been calculated during
+ the first call, avoid the race by actually verifying that a timestamp
+ difference can be observed on the current file system. Use an adaptive
+ approach for the delay to minimize execution time. Assert that the
+ maximum delay is <= ~2 seconds, more precisely sum(2^n) from 0 to 30
+ = 2^31 - 1 = 2.1s.
+ Use atexit to call clear_tmp_file when the process terminates.
