Date Modules Changes
+2009-04-01 visibility Renamed to lib-symbol-visibility.
+
+2009-04-01 ld-version-script Renamed to lib-symbol-versions.
+
+2009-03-20 close The substituted variable LIB_CLOSE is removed.
+
+2009-03-05 filevercmp Move hidden files up in ordering.
+
+2009-01-22 c-strtod This function no longer calls xalloc_die(). If
+ c-strtold you want to exit the program in case of out-of-
+ memory, the calling function needs to arrange
+ for it, like this:
+ errno = 0;
+ val = c_strtod (...);
+ if (val == 0 && errno == ENOMEM)
+ xalloc_die ();
+
+2009-01-17 relocatable-prog In the Makefile.am or Makefile.in, you now also
+ need to set RELOCATABLE_STRIP = :.
+
+2008-12-22 getaddrinfo When using this module, you now need to link with
+ canon-host $(GETADDRINFO_LIB).
+
+2008-12-21 mbiter The header files "mbiter.h", "mbuiter.h",
+ mbuiter "mbfile.h" can now be included without checking
+ mbfile HAVE_MBRTOWC. The macro HAVE_MBRTOWC will no
+ longer be defined by these modules in a year. If
+ you want to continue to use it, you need to invoke
+ AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC yourself.
+
+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>.
+
+2008-08-14 lock The include file is changed from "lock.h"
+ to "glthread/lock.h".
+ tls The include file is changed from "tls.h"
+ to "glthread/tls.h".
+
+2008-07-17 c-stack The module now requires the addition of
+ $(LIBCSTACK) or $(LTLIBCSTACK) in Makefile.am,
+ since it may depend on linking with libsigsegv.
+
+2008-07-07 isnanf-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnanf.h"
+ to "isnanf-nolibm.h".
+ isnand-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnand.h"
+ to "isnand-nolibm.h".
+
+2008-06-10 execute The execute function takes an additional termsigp
+ argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
+ wait-process The wait_subprocess function takes an additional
+ termsigp argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
+
+2008-05-10 linebreak The module is split into several modules unilbrk/*.
+ The include file is changed from "linebreak.h" to
+ "unilbrk.h". Two functions are renamed:
+ mbs_possible_linebreaks -> ulc_possible_linebreaks
+ mbs_width_linebreaks -> ulc_width_linebreaks
+
+2008-04-28 rpmatch The include file is now <stdlib.h>.
+
+2008-04-28 inet_ntop The include file is changed from "inet_ntop.h"
+ to <arpa/inet.h>.
+
+2008-04-28 inet_pton The include file is changed from "inet_pton.h"
+ to <arpa/inet.h>.
+
2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
now increases by 1 after ungetc.
