+       getaddrinfo: fix sh typo in gai_strerrorA decl checking
+       * m4/getaddrinfo.m4 (gl_GETADDRINFO): Fix typo in the generated
+       shell code: it contained a 'break' that was not in a loop.
+       Apparently the macro assumed that AC_CHECK_DECLS is implemenented
+       via a shell-language loop; this may have been true in old Autoconf
+       versions, but it's not true in Autoconf 2.68.  I found this bug
+       when testing coreutils git on Solaris 8, whose shell complains
+       about the syntax error.

        * lib/base64.c: Fix comment to reference RFC 4648.
