Date Modules Changes
+2009-09-23 same-inode The macro SAME_INODE is now tri-state, adding -1
+ for unknown.
+
+2009-09-16 canonicalize-lgpl
+ The include file is changed from "canonicalize.h"
+ to <stdlib.h>.
+
+2009-09-04 link-follow The macro LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK is now tri-state,
+ rather than only defined to 1.
+
+2009-09-03 openat The include files are standardized to POSIX 2008.
+ For openat, include <fcntl.h>; for
+ fchmodat, fstatat, and mkdirat, include
+ <sys/stat.h>; for fchownat and unlinkat,
+ include <unistd.h>. For all other
+ functions provided by this module,
+ continue to include "openat.h".
+
+2009-08-30 striconveh The functions mem_cd_iconveh and str_cd_iconveh
+ now take an 'iconveh_t *' argument instead of three
+ iconv_t arguments.
+
+2009-08-23 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
+ 'flags' argument. You can safely pass 0.
+
+2009-08-12 getopt This module is deprecated. Please choose among
+ getopt-posix and getopt-gnu. getopt-gnu provides
+ "long options" and "options with optional
+ arguments", getopt-posix doesn't.
+
+2009-06-25 fpurge The include file is changed from "fpurge.h" to
+ <stdio.h>.
+
+2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-from-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u16-conv-from-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u32-conv-from-enc
+ The calling convention of the functions
+ u*_conv_from_encoding is changed.
+
+2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-to-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u16-conv-to-enc
+ modules/uniconv/u32-conv-to-enc
+ The calling convention of the functions
+ u*_conv_to_encoding is changed.
+
+2009-04-24 maintainer-makefile
+ The maint.mk file was copied from
+ coreutils, and the old
+ coverage/gettext/indent rules were
+ re-added. If you used 'make syntax-check'
+ this will add several new checks. If some
+ new check is annoying, add the name of the
+ checks to 'local-checks-to-skip' in your
+ cfg.mk.
+
+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.
+
+2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
+ isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
+ "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
+ defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
+
+2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
+ implementations; clients that use controlled
+ needles and thus do not care about worst-case
+ efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
+ module instead for smaller code size.
+
+2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
+ supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
+ expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
+ Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
+ <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
+
+2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
+ implementations; clients that use controlled
+ needles and thus do not care about worst-case
+ efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
+ module instead for smaller code size.
+
+2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
+ <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
+ longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
+ module if you need it.
+
+2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
+ to <unistd.h>.
+
+2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
+ <strings.h>.
+
+2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
+ GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
+ A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
+ module description for the applicable license.
+
+2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
+ locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
+ "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
+
+2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
+ Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
+ Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
+ areadlink_with_size.
+
+2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
+ The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
+ and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
+
+2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
+
+2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
+ Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
+
+2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
+ error to standard error; that is now the
+ caller's responsibility. It returns an
+ error code of type enum strtol_error
+ instead of the integer option value, and stores
+ the option value via a new int * argument.
+ xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
+ are now an option name and option argument
+ instead of an option argument and a type string,
+ STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
+
+2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
+
+2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
+ gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
+
+2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
+ <wchar.h>.
+
+2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
+ (There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
+
+2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
+ <unistd.h>.
+
+2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
+ was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
+ renamed:
+ xallocsa -> xmalloca
+
+2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
+ was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
+ macros were renamed:
+ allocsa -> malloca
+ freesa -> freea
+
+2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
+ conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
+ that has a different signature.
+
+2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
+ #include "sigprocmask.h"
+ with
+ #include <signal.h>
+
+2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
+ You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
+ 'long double' as a type exists.
