+
+2005-10-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+	* configure.ac: Use 5.92-cvs as the version string.
+	* NEWS: Adjust accordingly.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Depend on

+
+2005-10-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+	no longer confident that the m4/stdbool.m4 patch suffices.
+
+2005-10-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/sort.c (sortlines_temp): Undo previous change, since
+	today's change to m4/stdbool.m4 should catch it.
+
+2005-10-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* TODO: rm: add support for a -I option, like that from FreeBSD's.
+
+2005-10-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (sortlines_temp): Declare temporary as `int' rather
+	than `bool' to work around AIX 5.3 compiler bug in 64-bit mode.
+	From James Lemley.
+
+2005-10-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/factor.c (MAX_N_FACTORS): Define in terms of sizeof (uintmax_t)
+	rather than hard-coding to 128.  From Thomas M.Ott.
+
+2005-10-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_unmarked_diagnostics):
+	Search only cvs-controlled files.

+
+2005-10-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+2005-09-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+
+	* configure.ac: Remove -cvs suffix from version string.
+	* NEWS: Add today's date.

+
+2005-09-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/system.h (LONGEST_MODIFIER): Use ULONG_MAX_LT_ULLONG_MAX
+	instead of ULLONG_MAX, as the latter doesn't work with GCC 2.7.2.1.
+
+2005-09-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* configure.ac: Use 5.90-cvs as the version string, not 5.3.1-cvs.

+
+2005-09-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+	* tests/install/trap: Work around a bug in FreeBSD 5.0.
+
+2005-09-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+2005-09-26  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/touch.c (touch): Handle "touch -c - >&-" by checking for EBADF
+	and ENOSYS.
+	Do not pass "-" to futimens; pass NULL instead.
+	If close (STDIN_FILENO) fails, report the error separately instead
+	of letting the 'close' pollute errno.
+	* tests/touch/empty-file: Test "touch -" too.
+	* tests/touch/no-create-missing: Likewise.
+	* tests/touch/read-only: Likewise.
+
+2005-09-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/touch/read-only: New test, for root of chmod/usage failure.
+	* tests/touch/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add read-only.
+
+	Work around the root cause of alpha-linux-1.sf.net test failure.
+	* tests/chmod/usage: Remove *all* files before each inner loop
+	iteration.  Otherwise, with a touch program that fails on unwritable
+	files, (this happens at least on linux-2.2.20) a -w file left behind
+	from a previous iteration could cause a spurious test failure.
+
+2005-09-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* tests/chmod/usage: Undo the s/files/file/ change, but add
+	comments about why the old version was desired.
+
+2005-09-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/ls-2/tests (setuid-etc): Work around output mismatch when
+	a just-created test file cannot be made set-group-ID.
+
+	Avoid test failures on alpha-linux-1.sf.net.
+	* tests/chmod/usage: Use newer trap and tmpdir-creation framework.
+	Fix apparent typos (s/files/file/) in inner loop.
+
+2005-09-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: "touch -" now touches standard output.
+	* src/touch.c (touch): Implement this.
+	(usage): Document this.
+
+	* src/copy.c (HAVE_FCHMOD, HAVE_FCHOWN): Define to 0 if not defined.
+	(copy_reg): New args CHOWN_SUCCEDED and DST_SB.  All callers changed.
+	Add a "goto close_src_and_dst_desc;" that was missing in the
+	previous patch.
+	(copy_reg) [HAVE_FCHOWN]: Prefer fchown to chown.
+	(copy_reg) [HAVE_FCHMOD]: Prefer fchmod to chmod.
+	(copy_internal): Don't invoke chown if fchown worked,
+	and likewise for chmod and fchmod.
+
+2005-09-24  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/shred.c: Use `#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H', not `#if HAVE_CONFIG_H',
+	for consistency with gnulib.
+	* src/dircolors.c: Likewise.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_no_if_have_config_h): New rule.
+	(syntax-check-rules): Add it.
+	.x-sc_no_if_have_config_h: New file.
+	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
+
+	* tests/seq/basic (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Disable these tests for now.
+	They fail with non-gcc compilers and some combinations
+	of options and libraries on Solaris systems.
+
+	* tests/misc/date (uninit-64): Restore this test.
+	Add start-up code to detect, and work around, the cases in
+	which the test might fail.
+
+2005-09-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* tests/misc/date (uninit-64): Remove this test.  It wasn't
+	portable in theory (it doesn't work on hosts where 'int' is 64
+	bits, example) or in practice (Solaris 8 localtime returns garbage
+	in tm_year for the specified date, but that's not coreutils's
+	fault).
+
+2005-09-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Preserve time stamps if
+	x->preserve_timestamps is set, using futimens so that
+	we needn't resolve the path again.
+	(copy_internal): Don't preserve time stamps if copy_reg did it
+	already.
+	* src/install.c (change_timestamps): First arg is source
+	struct stat, not file name.  All uses changed.
+	(install_file_in_file): Stat the source file.
+	Don't try to change time stamps if copy_file did it.
+	* src/system.h: Don't include utime.h; not needed.
+	(struct utimbuf) [!defined HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF]: Remove; not needed.
+
+2005-09-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/od.c: Use `verify' to ensure that our hard-coded
+	bytes_to_*_digits arrays are long enough.  Of course, 17+-byte
+	integral types aren't on the near horizon, but just in case...
+	(MAX_INTEGRAL_TYPE_SIZE): Move definition to precede new first use.
+	(bytes_to_oct_digits, bytes_to_signed_dec_digits):
+	(bytes_to_unsigned_dec_digits, bytes_to_hex_digits): Change base
+	type from `char' to the clearer `unsigned int'.
+
+2005-09-21  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/rmdir.c (EEXIST, ENOTEMPTY): Remove unused macros.
+
+	Sync from gnulib.
+
+	* src/dircolors.c: Include strcase.h.
+	* src/pinky.c: Include canon-host.h rather than declaring
+	canon_host ourselves.
+	* src/who.c: Likewise.
+
+	* src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC): Moved here from
+	../lib/xalloc.h, with args properly parenthesized, and using
+	verify_expr rather than the old VERIFY_EXPR.
+
+2005-09-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/install/basic-1: Require that this test be run as non-root.
+	Otherwise, it fails due to the fact that the chmod 0 . doesn't
+	affect root.
+
+2005-09-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Change comment to
+	agree with the code.
+
+2005-09-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_dir): Return RM_ERROR, not `1',
+	when attempting to remove `/' with --preserve-root.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Syntactic tweak: move an
+	assignment out of an if-expression.
+
+2005-09-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/extract-magic (usage): Request that additions be sent to
+	bug-coreutils@gnu.org, too.
+
+2005-09-16  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/date (rfc822-1): Compensate for Solaris 5.9's /bin/sh,
+	which emits a diagnostic to stderr when this test's LC_ALL=de_DE
+	setting cannot be honored.
+
+	* tests/misc/date (subfmt-up1): Put quotes around format string
+	to protect `^' from interpretation by some shells.
+	Add a use of OUT_SUBST to compensate for Solaris strftime's slightly
+	different formatting of %c.
+
+	* src/dd.c (main): When failing to truncate, mention both the seek
+	block count and the block size, in case the block size is very large.
+	Now `make distcheck' should pass, once again.
+
+2005-09-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/copy.c: Include stat-time.h.
+	(copy_internal): Use its functions instead of the obsolete
+	TIMESPEC_NS macro.
+	* src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise.
+	* src/date.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/du.c (struct duinfo, duinfo_init, duinfo_set, duinfo_add):
+	(show_date, print_size, process_file): Likewise.
+	* src/install.c (change_timestamps): Likewise.
+	* src/ls.c (cmp_ctime, cmp_mtime, cmp_atime, print_long_format):
+	Likewise.
+	* src/pr.c (init_header): Likewise.
+	* src/stat.c (human_time, print_stat): Likewise.
+	* src/tail.c (record_open_fd, tail_forever): Likewise.
+	* src/test.c (get_mtime, binary_operator): Likewise.
+	* src/touch.c (touch, main): Likewise.
+	* src/test.c (get_mtime): Renamed from age_of.  All uses changed.
+
+2005-09-16  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Date no longer needs to allocate virtual memory to do its job,
+	so it can no longer fail due to an out-of-memory condition.
+
+	* src/date.c: Include fprintftime.h.
+	Don't include strftime.h or xanstrftime.h -- no longer needed.
+	(show_date): Use new fprintftime function rather than xanstrftime.
+	Correct comment: this function no longer handles a NULL format string.
+	* src/du.c: Likewise.
+	* NEWS: Mention this.
+
+	* tests/misc/date (subfmt-up1): Test the combination of the
+	to-upper-case modifier (^) and a conversion specifier that
+	expands to a string containing lower case characters.
+
+2005-09-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: uname -a no longer generates the -p and -i outputs if they
+	are unknown.
+	* src/uname.c (usage): Document this.
+	(main): Implement this.
+
+2005-09-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/date (tz-5w, tz-5wf): Test new %:z format with
+	a field width.
+
+2005-09-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/dd.c: Detect some very unlikely buffer overflows.
+	(INPUT_BLOCK_SLOP, OUTPUT_BLOCK_SLOP): New macros.
+	(MAX_BLOCKSIZE): Now accepts an arg.  All uses changed.
+	(page_size): New var.
+	(scanargs, skip, main): Use more-straightforward way to detect overflow.
+	(dd_copy): Use page_size rather than invoking getpagesize.
+	Use INPUT_BLOCK_SLOP, OUTPUT_BLOCK_SLOP.
+	(main): Set page_size.
+	Avoid a call to stat in the usual case where ftruncate succeeds.
+
+	* src/expr.c (docolon): Add IF_LINT check to avoid GCC warning.
+
+	* configure.ac: Don't invoke AC_CONFIGURE_HOST directly; AB_INIT
+	does it for us, and our invocation evokes a diagnostic from
+	Autoconf 2.59.
+
+	* NEWS: date has a new --rfc-3339 option, and the old --iso-8601
+	option is deprecated.  date, du, ls, and pr also have new time format
+	specifiers %:z, %::z, %:::z.
+	* src/date.c (TIME_SPEC_DATE): No longer needs to be nonzero, so
+	remove the "=1".
+	(TIME_SPEC_HOURS, TIME_SPEC_MINUTES): Must be at end now, so put
+	them there.
+	(time_spec_string, time_spec): Hours and minutes must be at
+	start now, so put them there.
+	(rfc_2822_format): Now a string constant, not a boolean.  All uses
+	changed.
+	(iso_8601_format, rfc_format): Remove.
+	(RFC_3339_OPTION): New constant.
+	(long_options): Add --rfc-3339.
+	(usage): Add --rfc-3339.  Don't mention --iso-8601.
+	Mention %:z, %::z, %:::z.
+	(main): Simplify calculation of 'format'; it was getting too hairy
+	to follow.  Add --rfc-3339.
+	(show_date): Assume format arg is not NULL, which is the case
+	now.  The default code is moved to 'main'.  This simplifies things
+	and allows the default to be calculated just once.
+	* tests/misc/date: Add tests for --rfc-3339, %:z, %::z, %:::z.
+
+2005-09-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (GZIP_ENV): Add --rsyncable option.
+	(makefile-check): Escape a `$' in a diagnostic.
+
+	* configure.ac: Use AB_INIT (from autobuild).
+
+2005-09-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/factor.c (usage): Remove leading spaces in 2-line
+	description, so that help2man doesn't mangle it.
+	Reported by Justin Pryzby.
+
+2005-09-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	csplit could produce corrupt output, given input lines longer than 8KB
+
+	* src/csplit.c (load_buffer): Don't read from free'd memory
+	when handling lines longer than the initial buffer length.
+	(save_to_hold_area): Don't leak the previous hold_area buffer.
+	Reported by Tristan Miller and Luke Kendall.
+	* NEWS: Mention this.
+	* tests/misc/csplit: New test for this.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (load_buffer): Avoid integer overflow in buffer
+	size calculations for very long lines.
+
+2005-09-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Support regular expressions in 64-bit code correctly, by
+	importing the latest gnulib regexp code, and not assuming
+	that sizes fit in 32 bits.
+	* src/csplit.c (process_regexp): Store match length in regoff_t,
+	not int.  Assume that negative return values less than -2
+	represent regoff_t overflow.
+	* src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise.
+	* src/nl.c (proc_text): Likewise.
+	* src/ptx.c (SKIP_SOMETHING, find_occurs_in_text): Likewise.
+	* src/tac.c (tac_seekable): Likewise.
+	* src/expr.c (docolon) Check for size calculation overflow.
+	* src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise.
+	* src/ptx.c (matcher_error): New function.
+	(SKIP_SOMETHING): Use it to report matcher errors.
+	(alloc_and_compile_regex): No longer any need to worry about
+	int versus size_t mismatch.
+
+	* NEWS: Document "niceness" vs "nice value".
+	* configure.ac (utils_cv_func_setpriority): Simplify the tests.
+	Define HAVE_NICE rather than NICE_PRIORITY (since a niceness is
+	not a priority); all uses changed.
+	* src/nice.c (main): Hoist errno=0 outside the ifdef.
+
+2005-09-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/date (neg-secs2, fill-1, fill-2): Add new tests.
+
+2005-09-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Use the phrase "niceness" instead of "nice value" to describe
+	the biased nice value that can go negative.  This corrects
+	a discrepancy with POSIX, which states that nice values are
+	nonnegative.
+	* src/nice.c (GET_NICENESS): Renamed from GET_NICE_VALUE.
+	All uses changed.
+	(usage): Say "niceness" rather than "nice value".
+	(main): Say "niceness" rather than "priority" (which is something else
+	entirely nowadays).
+
+2005-09-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/du.c (time_args): Use NULL in place of 0.
+
+2005-09-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/dcgen: Don't omit comments until there is better documentation.
+
+	Colorize set-user-ID and set-group-ID files and sticky,
+	other-writable, and sticky-and-other-writable directories.
+	* src/dircolors.c (slack_codes): Add new dircolors mode names.
+	(ls_codes): Add corresponding two-letter ls mode strings.
+	* src/ls.c (indicator_no[]): Add new symbols.
+	(indicator_name[]): Add corresponding mode strings.
+	(color_indicator[]): Add an entry for each new mode string.
+	(print_color_indicator): Honor new types.
+	* src/dircolors.hin: Document the default colors for the new strings.
+	From Mike Frysinger, based on a patch from Fedora.
+	* tests/ls-2/tests (setuid-etc): New test, for the above.
+
+2005-08-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: "rm -FOO" now suggests "rm ./-FOO" if the file "-FOO"
+	exists and "-FOO" is not a valid option.
+	* src/rm.c: Include lstat.h, quotearg.h.
+	(diagnose_leading_hyphen): New function.
+	(main): Use it.
+
+2005-08-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/du.c: Go ahead and leave the patch in (i.e., revert
+	today's change).  It doesn't cause a problem after all, since
+	--exclude-from=- is always handled before --files0-from=F.
+
+	* src/du.c: Revert the du.c part of the change from 2005-07-02:
+	That change (to reopen stdin on F for --files0-from=F) made it so
+	--exclude-from=- and --files0-from=F would not work together.
+
+2005-08-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* configure.ac: Use `5.3.1-cvs' as the version string.
+	* NEWS: Adjust accordingly.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_useless_cpp_parens): New rule.
+	(syntax-check-rules): Add it.
+	* .x-sc_useless_cpp_parens: New file.
+	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
+
+	* src/od.c: Include <float.h> unconditionally.
+	* src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Remove unnecessary parens in
+	`#if defined (SYMBOL)' expressions.
+	* src/system.h: Likewise.
+	* src/hostname.c: Likewise.
+	* src/su.c: Likewise.
+	* src/test.c: Likewise.
+
+2005-08-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/tail.c (xwrite_stdout): Rename from xwrite.  Remove always-
+	equal-to-STDOUT_FILENO parameter and associated assertion.
+	Adjust all callers.
+
+2005-08-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ln.c (do_link): If ln is invoked with --interactive (-i),
+	encounters an existing destination file, and gets an affirmative
+	response, then first try to unlink the destination file rather
+	than simply failing.  Suggestion from Karl Berry.
+	FIXME: add test for this
+
+	* src/ln.c (main): Declare `target_directory' with const attribute.
+	* src/du.c (time_style): Add `const' attribute.
+	(tot_dui): Remove unnecessary (and too-short) initializer list.
+

+
+2005-08-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (usage): Fix typo s/POS 2/POS2/.
+	Reported by Edward Welbourne.
+
+	* tests/misc/date [neg-secs]: New test for today's strftime.c bug fix.

+
+2005-08-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/df.c (show_dev): New arg STAT_FILE.  All uses changed.
+	This sometimes gives better results on networked file systems
+	that do not respect POSIX semantics.  Problem reported by
+	Bruno Haible.
+
+2005-08-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Don't print uninitialized data (or anything else) to stdout
+	upon localtime failure.
+	* src/date.c (show_date): Remove stray `puts (buf);' (debugging?)
+	from the 2004-02-02 change.
+	* tests/misc/date (uninit-64): New test for the above.
+	Rewrite all other OUT strings to include the terminating "\n".
+
+2005-08-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+	by Norbert Kiesel.
+
+	Use one fewer file descriptor in a common case.

+	Use fd_reopen rather than open.
+
+2005-08-14  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>
+
+	* src/test.c (age_of): Return the nanoseconds part of the timestamp,

+	(binary_operator) [-nt, -ot]: Use nanosecond values to break ties.
+
+2005-08-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ls.c (long_time_expected_width): Revert last change, just to
+	be paranoid, and add a comment explaining why.  Paul Eggert mentioned
+	the possibility.
+
+	* src/wc.c: Don't define mbrtowc at all.
+	If mbstate_t is not defined, then AC_TYPE_MBSTATE_T will define
+	it to `int' for us.  Now wc.c really does compile on HP-UX 11.23.
+
+2005-08-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/date: Remove directory
+	* tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove date.
+	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/date/Makefile.
+
+	* tests/Coreutils.pm: New keywords, ENV and ENV_DEL, to support
+	tests/misc/date.
+
+	With todays additions, the generated shell script,
+	tests/date/date-tests had becoming far too large (over 350KB),
+	so use the superior-but-perl-requiring framework instead.
+	* tests/date/Test.pm: Move all tests from here...
+	* tests/misc/date: ...to this new file.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add date.

+
+	* src/nohup.c (main): Explain why we reopen stdin for write-only access.
+
+	* src/ls.c (long_time_expected_width): Don't test for failed localtime.
+	That cannot happen when the result date's year is in range.
+	Add an assertion instead.
+
+	* src/ls.c (sort_files): Use cleaner `sizeof *VAR_NAME'
+	rather than `sizeof (TYPE_NAME)'.
+	* src/ptx.c (sort_found_occurs, digest_word_file): Likewise.
+	(alloc_and_compile_regex): Likewise.
+
+	* src/wc.c: Test `!defined HAVE_MBSTATE_T' rather than

+
+	Add bulletproofing in case stdin is closed.

+	* src/md5sum.c (usage, main): Support this new usage.
+
+2005-07-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Fix a problem noted by James Youngman: VPATH-style builds don't
+	work because of po file problems.
+	* src/Makefile.am (BUILT_SOURCES): Remove false.c.
+	(false.c): Remove; it's now a source file.
+	* src/false.c: New file.
+	* src/true.c (EXIT_STATUS): New macro.
+	(PROGRAM_NAME, usage): Behave like "false" if EXIT_STATUS indicates.

+
+2005-07-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/nohup.c (main): Don't worry about POSIXLY_CORRECT.  Today's

+	forward as proposed text for a future revision.
+
+2005-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (nanosec_libs): Remove $(FESETROUND_LIBM); no longer

+
+2005-07-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Binary input and output are now implemented more consistently.
+	These changes affect only platforms like MS-DOS that distinguish
+	between binary and text files.
+	* src/cat.c (usage, main, long_options) [O_BINARY]:
+	Remove support for -B.  Use same rules as other programs to decide
+	whether to use binary I/O, except that the -bensAE options always
+	select text mode.

+	(main): Don't report a file to be binary if we actually read it
+	as text in MS-DOS, because it was a terminal.
+	* src/shred.c (wipefile): Always use binary mode.  Clearly this
+	never worked right on DOS!
+	* src/system.h (setmode, fileno): Remove; no longer needed, we think.
+	(SET_MODE, SET_BINARY, SET_BINARY2): Remove.
+	[defined __DJGPP__]: Don't include <io.h> or <sys/exceptn.h>.
+	* src/wc.c (wc_file): FILE might be null now.

+
+	* configure.ac: Remove check for AC_HEADER_TIOCGWINSZ.
+	* src/cat.c, src/ls.c, src/stty.c: Include stropts.h if available,
+	because POSIX says that's where ioctl is declared.
+	* src/cat.c: Use HAVE_SYS_IOCTL_H instead of _POSIX_SOURCE
+	to decide whether to include <sys/ioctl.h>.
+	* src/stty.c: Use only HAVE_SYS_IOCTL_H to decide whether
+	to include <sys/ioctl.h>.
+
+	* src/id.c (print_user): Don't assume uid fits in unsigned int.

+
+2005-07-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+
+	* src/system.h (VERIFY_W_TYPEOF): Remove; no longer needed.
+	(DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE): Change last arg from T's maximum value
+	to T itself.  All callers changed.  Check that T is unsigned, and
+	that Accum is of type T.  This fixes a bug in the unlikely case

+	the proper validity checks.
+
+	* src/od.c: Adjust to verify.h change.

+	* src/od.c: Reflect name change.
+
+2005-07-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2005-06-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pr.c (main, store_char): Use x2realloc on 1-byte base types,

+

+
+2005-06-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Address the following "du" issues:
+
+	- The option name "--last-time=TYPE" is different from the ls's option
+	  "--time=TYPE" with a similar meaning.  I assume this wasn't intended.
+
+	- --time-style implies --time, but this is not true for "ls".  It's
+	  better to be consistent.
+
+	- Since we don't have POSIX compatibility concerns, there's no need
+	  for the "posix-" styles, or for support of styles with newlines, or
+	  for the "locale" style, except for parsing the TIME_STYLE
+	  environment variable.
+
+	- It's cleaner (and these days, no less efficient) to use functions
+	  rather than macros when possible.
+
+	- struct duinfo doesn't need a 'valid' flag; you can simply use a time
+	  stamp that is less than all valid time stamps.
+
+	- The code needs a bit of reformatting to fit the usual GNU style.
+
+	* NEWS: du's --last-time option is now --time.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (ls invocation): Fix typo: --time=use is
+	equivalent to --time=atime, not --time=ctime.
+	(ls invocation, du invocation): Fix typo: --time-style=long-iso
+	is equivalent to a time style with a leading "+".
+	(du invocation): --last-time is now --time.
+	--time-style no longer implies --time.
+	The locale and posix- stuff now works only for TIME_STYLE, not
+	for --time-style.  Give equivalent format for --time-style=iso.
+	* src/du.c: Do not include hard-locale.h.
+	(struct duinfo): Remove 'valid' member.  All uses changed to use
+	negative nsec instead.
+	(DUIINFO_INI, DUINFO_SET, DUINFO_ADD): Remove.
+	(duinfo_init, duinfo_set, duinfo_add): New functions, taking the
+	role of the removed macros.
+	(opt_time): Renamed from opt_last_time.  All uses changed.
+	(TIME_OPTION): Renamed from LAST_TIME_OPTION.  All uses changed.
+	(long_options, usage): Rename --last-time to --time.
+	(locale_time_style): Remove.
+	(time_style_args, time_style_types, usage): Remove support for
+	--time-style=locale.
+	(show_date): Now returns void, since nobody looked at the result.
+	Assume FORMAT is not null.  An empty FORMAT now outputs an empty time.
+	Simplify nstrftime invocation.
+	(main): Put in ls compatibility workarounds only for TIME_STYLE,
+	not for --time-style.  Omit unnecessary space in iso time style.
+
+2005-06-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/du.c (time_format): Add `const' attribute.
+
+	* src/date.c (show_date): Use puts rather than printf ("%s\n",.
+
+	* src/du.c (show_date): Rename local `time_format' so as not to

+	(show_date): Add a FIXME comment.
+
+	* src/du.c: Include hard-locale.h and strftime.h.
+	(DUINFO_INI, DUINFO_SET, DUINFO_ADD):

+	Adjust uses (add semicolons).
+	Adjust formatting, indentation.
+	(usage): Tweak formatting to maintain more or less constant indentation.

+	turned on.
+
+2005-06-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+	* NEWS: `rm -r' now removes all of the files it should, even on
+	systems with a buggy readdir affecting file systems inaccessible
+	at configure time.
+
+	In some unusual circumstances `rm -r' would fail to remove --
+	or even consider -- all entries in a directory with more than 254
+	(SunOS) or 338 (Darwin) entries.  This could cause trouble even on
+	other types of systems when using an affected file system via e.g.,
+	NFS.  The underlying cause was a bug in readdir on those systems.
+	Coreutils-5.2.1 and earlier used a configure-time test designed
+	to detect precisely those problem systems, but it would detect
+	the problem and enable remove.c's work-around code only when its
+	configure-time test was run on a losing file system.  Obviously,
+	it couldn't detect a problem if the offending file system wasn't
+	tested or even mounted at coreutils configure time.  Now, rm itself
+	performs a minimal-cost run-time test to detect the problem.
+
+	* src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Define.

+	* NEWS: Document this.
+
+	* src/nice.c (main): Report proper program name when getopt finds

+	if test -p doesn't work.
+
+	* tests/chmod/setgid: Use numeric group ids, not symbolic group names,

+	* src/system.h (VERIFY, VERIFY_EXPR, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
+	New macros.
+
+	Before, this command would make uniq skip 11 fields and print
+	only the first line:
+	$ _POSIX2_VERSION=1 ./uniq -f1 -1 <(seq --format='1 %g' 2)
+	1 1
+	1 2
+	* src/uniq.c (main): Interpret `uniq -f1 -1' like `uniq -f1',

+
+2005-03-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Both `pr -0' and e.g., `pr -03' would evoke `column count too large'.
+	`pr -0' should give a better diagnostic and `pr -03' should be
+	equivalent to `pr -3'.
+	* src/pr.c (parse_column_count): Change return type to void.
+	Call error (EXIT_FAILURE, ... for an invalid string.
+	(main): Allocate space for column_count_string using malloc.
+	Accumulate all old-style column-count digits before converting.
+	When the number of columns is specified via both old-style,
+	(e.g., -3), and a long option (--columns=5), ensure that only
+	the last one specified takes effect.

+	(print_statfs, print_stat): Add buf_len parameter and convert all
+	uses of strcat to xstrcat.  Update callers.
+	(print_it): Call print_func with buf_len parameter.
+
+	Invoking stat -c FMT with a lone format directive of %s, %f, %h, %s,
+	could cause a buffer overrun error.
+	* src/stat.c (print_it): Allocate 2 more bytes, to accommodate our

+
+2005-03-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Prompt once again for `mv -i A B' when A and B are hard links

+	(coreutils-5.0.1) change.  Reported by Thomas Wolff via Eric Blake.
+	* src/copy.c (abandon_move): New function, factored out of

+	whether it's alright to proceed and (usually) overwrite the
+	destination file.
+	* tests/mv/i-4: Add tests for the above.
+
+	Don't segfault for a very long date format string, e.g.,
+	ls -ld --time-style=+%99999999H .
+	* src/ls.c (long_time_expected_width): Use x2nrealloc, not alloca,

+
+	Don't segfault for a long header date string, e.g.,
+	echo a|pr -D +%9999999A
+	* src/pr.c (init_header): Use x2nrealloc, rather than alloca.

+
+2005-03-08  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/date.c (usage): Redo to match recent documentation changes.
+	Don't bother documenting which usages are GNU extensions; the list
+	wasn't correct, and is better left to the printed manual anyway.
+
+2005-03-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Factor out column-count processing.

+
+	* NEWS: Describe user-visible change to dd.

+	(print_stats, main): Use gethrxtime rather than gettime.

+
+2005-02-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2005-02-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/sort.c (mergefps): Use binary search rather than linear one

+
+2005-02-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2005-02-01  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>  (tiny change)

+
+2005-01-29  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>  (tiny change)

+
+2005-01-03  Corinna Vinschen  <corinna@vinschen.de>  (tiny change)

+2005-01-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2005-01-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+
+2005-01-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/shred.c (isaac_seed) [HAVE_GETHRTIME]: #if-0 this block,

+	failure when compiled with Sun's c89 on Solaris 8 and 9.
+	Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+
+	* src/shred.c (isaac_seed) [HAVE_GETHRTIME]: Don't call ISAAC_SEED

+
+2005-01-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	The test, tests/tail/f-1, failed on powerpc-apple-darwin7.7.0.
+	* src/tail.c (IS_TAILABLE_FILE_TYPE): Adjust definition also to include
+	sockets, since that's what you get when reading from a command-line-
+	supplied pipe on Darwin 7.7.
+	(IS_PIPE_LIKE_FILE_TYPE): Define.
+	(main): Use new IS_PIPE_LIKE_FILE_TYPE rather than simply S_ISFIFO.
+	Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+	This same change is also required on NetBSD/sparc-1.5.
+	Reported by Adrian Bunk.
+
+	* src/expr.c (toarith): Rewrite to detect/diagnose integer overflow,
+	rather than suffering silently.
+	Before, expr would silently overflow and wrap around:
+	  $ expr 9223372036854775808 = 0   # $(echo 2^63|bc)
+	  1
+	Now it detects the problem and exits nonzero:
+	  $ ./expr $(echo 2^63|bc) = 0
+	  ./expr: 9223372036854775808: integer is too large
+
+	* tests/chown/separator (id_gn): Exit 77, not 1, for a test-framework
+	failure, so that doesn't cause `make check' to stop.  Nelson Beebe
+	reported that this test would fail with the diagnostic,
+	`cannot find name for group ID 10', on one of his systems.
+
+2005-01-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/test.c (is_int): Don't overflow when evaluating integer
+	constants.  Before, ./test $(echo 2^64|bc) -eq 0 && echo FAIL
+	would print `FAIL'.
+
+	* tests/Fetish.pm (run_tests): Add code (if-0'd out) to detect
+	names of temporary files that would clash on 8.3 file systems.
+	* tests/mk-script (validate): Likewise.
+
+2005-01-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/dd/skip-seek: Shorten test names to accommodate 8.3 systems.

+	* src/unexpand.c (add_tab_stop): Properly diagnose a tabstop list
+	with decreasing values.
+
+	* src/expand.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/unexpand.c (main): Check for overflow in tabstop values
+	specified via the obsolete form.  E.g., now this command fails:
+	_POSIX2_VERSION=1 ./unexpand -$(echo '2^64+1'|bc)
+	Before it would act like `_POSIX2_VERSION=1 ./unexpand -1'.
+	* tests/unexpand/basic-1 (obs-ovflo): New test for this.
+
+2005-01-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+	* src/pathchk.c (PORTABILITY_OPTION): New constant.
+	(longopts, usage, main, validate_file_name):
+	Add support for new -P option.
+	Reject empty file names (unless -p is not specified and the
+	current system allows empty file names).
+	Change --portability so that is now equivalent to -p -P.
+	Don't test whether file name is too long, if it is known to exist.
+	(no_leading_hyphen): New function.
+	* tests/misc/pathchk1: Add tests for empty file names and
+	pathchk -P.
+
+2005-01-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 5.3.0.
+
+	`pr --columns=N' was not equivalent to `pr -N' when also using
+	either -s or -w.
+
+	* src/pr.c (main): Set `explicit_columns' for --columns=N,
+	not just for -N.  This bug has existed since the introduction
+	of the --columns=N option on 1998-08-15.
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* tests/pr/Test.pm (test_vector): For each -N test, automatically
+	create a new test vector using --columns=N.
+
+2005-01-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/pr.c (main): Check for column count overflow with
+	usages like "pr -2147483648".
+
+2005-01-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pr.c (init_fps): Use xnmalloc, rather than xmalloc.
+
+2005-01-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* README: List the precise HP-UX version numbers that are affected.
+	Suggestion from Bob Proulx.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_changelog): Specify find's `-maxdepth 2'

+	from find-4.2.10.
+
+2005-01-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/help-version: Punt on the uptime test, since it fails when
+	it can't get boot time, and I don't want that to stop `make check'.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Evaluate exclusion rules against
+	the entire file name, not just the last component.
+	Reported by Robert Lindgren.
+	* tests/du/exclude: Test for this.
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+
+	Ensure that tests/Makefile.am's check-root actions stay up to date.

+	(syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
+
+2005-01-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* man/shred.x: Change one-line summary to reflect that shred does
+	not remove files by default.  Suggestion from Helen Faulkner in
+	http://bugs.debian.org/288552
+
+	* README: Request VERBOSE=yes output when reporting test failures.
+	Other minor changes.
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Update.
+
+2005-01-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/system.h: Undo previous change; we now use Autoconf.
+
+2005-01-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/stty/row-col-1: Don't set rows or columns to zero, to avoid
+	a bug in the TIOCGWINSZ ioctl on at least Solaris5.9 systems.  Setting
+	either (or both) to zero would succeed, but subsequent `stty size'
+	would say `no size information for this device' due to the ioctl
+	failing with EINVAL.
+
+	* src/system.h: If PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, PRIuMAX, and PRIxMAX are
+	not all defined and either ULONG_MAX or ULLONG_MAX is not defined,
+	then fail at compile-time rather than let tools like od produce
+	invalid results at run time.
+
+2004-12-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/csplit.c (usage): Say the default names are `xx00, xx01, ...',
+	not `xx01, xx02, ...'.
+	Reported by Matt Kraai in http://bugs.debian.org/286605
+
+	* tests/misc/split-fail: Avoid spurious failure on x86 Solaris5.9
+	when using c89.
+
+2004-12-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+2004-12-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Mention that one should eval "`dircolors`" rather than
+	`dircolors`.
+
+2004-12-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/mv/hard-link-1: Rearrange to use newer trap-handling code,
+	so temporary directories aren't left behind upon e.g., interrupt.
+
+2004-12-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/ls.c (print_dir): Use "%s: not listing already-listed
+	directory", not "not listing already-listed directory: %s", to
+	format already-listed directories, to be consistent with other
+	diagnostics involving file names and colons.
+
+2004-12-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (__LDADD): Define, so that building `[' on
+	Solaris still uses the -lgen library that it requires in order
+	to get a definition of eaccess.
+
+2004-12-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	tac would exit immediately upon I/O or temp-file creation failure.
+	Now it continues on, processing any remaining command line arguments.
+
+	* src/tac.c: Include quotearg.h.
+	Use quotearg_colon in most diagnostics.
+	(copy_to_temp): Rewrite not to exit upon I/O or temp-file-creation
+	failure.  Before, this command (with /full/tmp being a full partition)
+	  TMPDIR=/full/tmp ./tac /proc/modules tac.c
+	would exit immediately upon the write error while trying to copy
+	non-seekable /proc/modules to the full partition.  Now it still
+	reports the failure but continues on with the remaining file.
+	(tac_nonseekable): Return false also if copy_to_temp fails.
+	[DONT_UNLINK_WHILE_OPEN]: Add a FIXME comment explaining that
+	using atexit like this is wrong.
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* tests/misc/tac-continue: New test for this.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tac-continue.
+
+	* tests/chown/basic: Add a few more tests.
+
+2004-12-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Change arg name to be command_line_arg
+	rather than explicit_arg, for consistency with copy.c.
+	(extract_dirs_from_files): Remove ignore_dot_and_dot_dot arg, since
+	it is deducible from dirname arg.  All callers changed.
+	(extract_dirs_from_files, print_dir, queue_directory):
+	Add command_line_arg arg.  All callers changed.
+	(struct pending): Add command_line_arg member.
+	(main): Use NULL rather than 0 when appropriate.
+	(set_exit_status, file_failure): New functions.
+	(queue_directory): Store command_line_arg into new structure.
+	(print_dir, gobble_file, get_link_name):
+	Use file_failure to report problems in accessing files,
+	so that the exit status is set consistently.
+	(print_dir): Simplify readdir failure code yet again.
+	If closedir fails, report "closing directory" rather than "reading
+	directory" failure.
+	(xstrcoll): Use set_exit_status to set status on failure.
+	* tests/ls-2/tests (no-a-isdir-b): This now exits with status 2,

+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* src/ls.c (LS_MINOR_PROBLEM, LS_FAILURE): New constants.
+	All uses of EXIT_FAILURE replaced with LS_FAILURE, unless
+	specified below.
+	(main): Initialize exit failure to LS_FAILURE.
+	(print_dir, gobble_file, get_link_name, xstrcoll):
+	Set exit status to LS_MINOR_PROBLEM if the failure is minor.
+	(print_dir): Do not give up on entire directory merely because readdir
+	returns EOVERFLOW.
+	(usage): Explain exit status.

+
+	* tests/du/files0-from: Sanitize environment.

+
+	Since the changes of 2004-05-22, the u.saved_cwd member at

+2004-11-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Minor performance improvements and cleanups for "touch".
+	* src/touch.c (posix_date): Remove; not needed as a static var.

+	(touch): Use new futimens function to operate more efficiently
+	in some cases.  Don't stat/fstat existing file when
+	(!amtime_now && change_times == (CH_ATIME | CH_MTIME)); the

+2004-11-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Document the following changes.
+
+	* src/sort.c: Avoid O(N**2) behavior when there are many temporary
+	files.
+	(temptail): New variable, so that we can easily append to list.
+	(create_temp_file): Create new files at end of list, so that
+	searching the list has O(N*NMERGE) behavior instead of O(N**2).
+	(zaptemp): Update temptail if needed.
+	(mergefps, merge): Accept new arg that counts temp files, and keep it
+	up to date as we create and remove temporaries.  This is for
+	efficiency, so that we don't call zaptemp so often.
+	All callers changed.
+	(sort): Don't create array in reverse order, since the list of
+	temporaries is now in the correct order.
+
+	(zaptemp): Protect against race condition: if 'sort' is
+	interrupted in the middle of zaptemp, it might unlink the
+	temporary file twice, and the second time this happens the file
+	might already have been created by some other process.
+
+	(zaptemp): Warn if a temporary file is not removed.
+
+	(create_temp_file): Use offsetof for clarity.
+	(die): Move it up earlier, to clean up the code a bit.
+
+	* src/pr.c (strtoumax): Declare if not declared.
+	(skip_to_page, first_page_number, last_page_number, page_number,
+	first_last_page, print_header):
+	Use uintmax_t for page numbers.
+	(first_last_page): Remove unnecessary forward declaration.
+	Do not modify arg (it is now a const pointer).
+	Return a true if successful, false (without print a diagnostic)
+	otherwise.
+	(main): If +XXX does not specify a valid page range, treat it
+	as a file name.  This follows the response to Open Group XCU ERN 41
+	<http://www.opengroup.org/sophocles/show_mail.tpl?source=L&listname=austin-group-l&id=7717>,
+	which says the behavior is allowed.
+	(skip_to_page): When starting page number exceeds page count,
+	print both numbers in the diagnostic.
+	(print_header): Detect page number overflow.
+
+2004-11-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/uname.c [__APPLE__]: Include <mach/machine.h> and <mach-o/arch.h>.
+	(main) [__APPLE__]: Get the processor type via syscall rather than
+	hard-coding "powerpc".  From Toby Peterson.
+
+	* src/sort.c (merge): Remove declarations of now-unused variables.
+
+2004-11-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/sort.c (first_same_file): Remove.  Move most of the code to....
+	(avoid_trashing_input): New function.
+	(merge): Avoid some silly merges, e.g., copying a single file to
+	a temporary file when there are exactly 17 input files to merge.
+	Take a count of temporary files rather than a max_merge arg.
+	All uses changed.
+
+2004-11-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (xfclose): Don't close stdout here (just flush it),
+	since close_stdout now closes stdout unconditionally.
+
+2004-11-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/sort.c (inittables, sort_buffer_size, getmonth, mergefps,
+	first_same_file, merge, sort, main): Use size_t for indexes to arrays.
+	This fixes some unlikely havoc-wreaking bugs (e.g., more than INT_MAX
+	temporary files).
+	(getmonth, keycompare, compare): Rewrite to avoid need for alloca,
+	thus avoiding unchecked stack overflow in some cases.  As a side
+	effect this improve the performance of "sort -M" by a factor of 4
+	on my benchmarks.
+
+2004-11-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/stty.c: Include "vasprintf.h" since we use vasprintf now.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (check-AUTHORS): Don't assume \? works in a sed
+	expression; it's not portable.  Problem reported by Albert Chin.
+	Don't invoke a program more than once.
+	* src/groups.sh (version): New variable, containing author info,
+	for benefit of AUTHORS check.  Use it when acting on --version option.
+	* AUTHORS: Remove duplicate lines.  Remove bogus "chroot:"
+	in groups line.
+
+	* src/system.h: Don't #define and #undef getopt around <stdlib.h>,
+	as this breaks the new regime that does "#define getopt rpl_getopt".
+	Problem reported by Albert Chin for Solaris 9 with Sun cc in:
+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2004-11/msg00019.html
+	I suppose this may cause problems on ancient hosts with
+	incompatible getopt declarations, but we'll cross that bridge if
+	the problem gets reported to us by someone who can test the fix.

+
+	`tac /proc/modules' would print nothing
+	Reported by Harald Dunkel in http://bugs.debian.org/278604.
+
+	* src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Renamed from save_stdin, since
+	now it copies a general file descriptor, not just stdin.
+	(tac_nonseekable): Renamed/adapted from tac_stdin.
+	(tac_file): Get fd via `open' directly rather than via fopen/fileno,
+	since we never used the stream.  Perform "-" to stdin mapping here
+	rather than in main.  Determine whether a file is seekable,
+	by trying to `lseek' to its end, and dispatch to tac_seekable or
+	tac_nonseekable accordingly.
+	(main): Rewrite argument handling now that it uses only tac_file.
+	* NEWS: Mention it here.

+
+	Correct my patch of 2004-10-18.
+	* src/remove.c (rm): Destroy the saved_cwd here (via cwd_state),
+	if necessary, not in remove_dir.  Otherwise, removing multiple
+	`.'-relative nonempty directories no longer worked.
+
+2004-10-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+2004-10-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Plug a leak that would cause a cross-device mv to fail when
+	operating on too many command-line-specified nonempty directories.
+	* src/remove.c (remove_dir): Destroy the `struct saved_cwd' on the
+	top of the stack before returning.  This usually closes the file
+	descriptor that was used to return to the original working directory.
+	Reported by Cyril Bouthors in
+	http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/3048
+	* NEWS: Mention it here.
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (validate_file_name): Give a more descriptive
+	diagnostic when pathconf fails.  This also avoids an unwarranted
+	warning from gcc-3.3.5 about a format not being a string literal.
+
+	* src/sleep.c (main): Remove declaration of unused local, c.
+	* src/printenv.c (main): Likewise.

+	Remove usage comment, as it was a duplication of the code or doc.
+	Include <wchar.h> if available.
+	(mbrlen, mbstate_t) [! (HAVE_MBRLEN && HAVE_MBSTATE_T)]: Define.
+	(NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER, PATH_MAX, PATH_MAX_FOR, NAME_MAX,
+	pathconf_wrapper, portable_chars, dir_ok): Remove.
+	(NAME_MAX_MINIMUM, PATH_MAX_MINIMUM): New macros.
+	(pathconf, _PC_NAME_MAX, _PC_PATH_MAX): Define if nonexistent.
+	(portable_chars_only): New arg FILELEN.
+	Don't assume ASCII; we might be on an EBCDIC host.
+	Don't assume unibyte locale in diagnostic.
+	(component_start, component_len): New functions.
+	(validate_file_name): Renamed from validate_path.  All uses changed.
+	Pretty much a complete rewrite.
+	Don't make copy of file arg.  Always append trailing slash to
+	pathconf arg, just in case it's a symlink (this is pure paranoia;
+	we don't know of any hosts where the trailing slash is required).
+	Use size_t instead of long int when possible.
+	Avoid need to call pathconf in most practical cases.
+	Don't use euidaccess several times to test searchability;
+	just use lstat once.  Reword diagnostic to put the (often very long)
+	file names last.
+
+2004-10-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+
+2004-10-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+
+2004-09-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/od.c (format_address_paren): c is optional, so don't output
+	it if it's '\0'.
+
+2004-09-26  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Add support for ls --hide.  Idea suggested by Bardur Arantsson.
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* src/ls.c (file_ignored): Renamed from file_interesting, with
+	inverted return value.  Accept the file name, not a struct dirent *.
+	All uses changed.  Avoid the expense of calling fnmatch if the
+	file is ignorable due to leading '.'.
+	(all_files, really_all_files): Removed; replaced by:
+	(ignore): New variable.  All uses changed.
+	(IGNORE_DEFAULT, IGNORE_DOT_AND_DOTDOT, IGNORE_MINIMAL, HIDE_OPTION):
+	New constants.
+	(hide_patterns): New variable.
+	(long_options, decode_switches, file_ignored, usage):
+	Add support for --hide.

+	(usage): Replace "hide" with "ignore" in explanation, to avoid
+	confusion.
+
+2004-09-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/ls.c (gobble_file, print_long_format): Don't assume that
+	human-readable output has a byte count equal to its column width;
+	this isn't always true in locales where the radix character is not
+	'.' or ','.
+	(format_user_or_group): Revamp code to match the above fix;
+	this avoids the (very faint) possibility of integer overflow.
+
+2004-09-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Mention that "chmod -r -w x" now works as expected.

+	sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4, sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names,
+	sc_trailing_blank, po-check): Use it instead of the
+	nonstandard "cvsu --list".
+
+	* src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Bring back support
+	for obsolete option followed by non-obsolete, or by more
+	than one file.  When obsolete, conform to SUSv2 rather than
+	original POSIX 1003.2-1992, as SUSv2 corrected the case of
+	"tail -c".  Add support for the SUSv2 "b" modifier.
+	* NEWS: Mention the above.
+	* tests/tail/Test.pm: New test case obs-b to check the above.
+	err-[134] no longer need _POSIX2_VERSION=199209.
+	Fix comments to match revised behavior.

+2004-09-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+

+

+	The current standard (POSIX 1003.1-2004) is correct.
+	(crc_remainder) [defined CRCTAB]: Renamed from "remainder" to avoid

+	(main) [defined CRCTAB]: Output in lowercase hexadecimal, and

+	the text of the standard.  Output crctab to be a const array.
+	(crctab): Use result of above changes.
+	(long_options): Remove; not needed if empty.

+	Remove bool *arg; just exit if there's an error.  Revamp to follow

+	file" and "tail -10 -- file" correctly when we are conforming to
+	the older standard.
+	(main): Adjust to this change.
+	* tests/tail/Test.pm (test_vector): minus-* requires

+2004-09-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/touch.c (main): Fix POSIX-conformance bug: "touch --

+	conforming to pre-2001 POSIX.
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* tests/touch/obsolescent: Test for this bug.  Also, set
+	_POSIX2_VERSION=199209 and POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 so that it's
+	a better test for obsolescent features.
+
+	* src/sort.c (main): Emulate Solaris 8 and 9 "sort -y", so that
+	"sort -y abc" is like "sort abc" whereas "sort -y 100" is like
+	plain "sort".
+
+	* src/od.c: Several changes for POSIX and FreeBSD compatibility.
+	(COMMON_SHORT_OPTIONS): Add -B, -D, -e, -F, -H, -I, -L, -O, -s, -X.
+	(long_options, main): --strings is now -S, not -s.
+	(usage): Reflect the usage changes.
+	(parse_old_offset): Do not issue a diagnostic on failure;
+	callers now do this as necessary.
+	(main): Support POSIX syntax.  Remove unused case 0 from getopt_long.
+	Add support for new short options (many undocumented) for
+	compatibility with FreeBSD.  Remove FIXME for -s; it's now

+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-08/msg00171.html
+	* src/paste.c (dummy_closed, CLOSED, dummy_endlist, ENDLIST): Remove;

+	instead of CLOSED.
+
+2004-08-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	POSIX-conformance fixes for "expand" and "unexpand".
+	Also, consistently use "tab stop" rather than "tabstop".

+	(expand): Remove unnecessary casts.
+	Add another loop nesting level, for lines, so that per-line variables
+	are initialized cleanly.
+	Revamp tab checking.  Check for write error immediately, rather
+	than just once at the end of the program.
+	* src/unexpand.c: Lkewise (for the expand.c changes).
+	(TAB_STOP_SENTINEL): Remove.
+	(tab_size): Now size_t, not uintmax_t, since we need to store
+	the sequences of blanks.
+	(max_column_width): New var.
+	(usage): Say "blank" where POSIX requires this.
+	(add_tab_stop): Calculate maximum column width.
+	(unexpand): Store the pending blanks, instead of merely counting them.
+	Follow POSIX's rules about -a requiring two blanks before a tab stop.
+	Get rid of internal label and goto.
+	* tests/unexpand/basic-1: Fix infloop-3 to match POSIX.
+	Add blanks-1 through blanks-13.
+
+2004-08-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: "chown : file", "chown '' file", and "chgrp '' file" now
+	succeed without changing the uid and gid, like FreeBSD.
+	* src/chgrp.c (parse_group): Return gid_t rather than storing it
+	through a pointer.  Treat "chgrp '' file" as a no-op change,
+	as FreeBSD does.

+	string.
+	* src/chown-core.c (describe_change): Describe changes to -1:-1

+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal): When preserving links, unlink
+	a destination with link count greater than one.  This is so
+	that commands like "cp -a" don't get confused when copying into

+	A null file arg means standard output.

+
+2004-08-10  Dmitry V. Levin  <ldv@altlinux.org>

+
+2004-08-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+	needed for concatenation contexts.
+	(INTMAX_MAX, INTMAX_MIN): New macros.
+
+	* src/stat.c (print_stat): Don't assume st_ino / st_dev fits in

+
+2004-08-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/uname.c: Do not depend on HAVE_SYSCTL when deciding

+	* src/system.h (errno, CHAR_BIT): Remove decls;
+	no longer needed now we assume C89 or better.
+	Include <inttypes.h> before <stdint.h>, as it's the
+	Autoconf-recommended pattern.
+	(to_uchar): New inline function, moved here from tr.c.
+	Use full names for int types, e.g. "long int" rather than "long".

+	(simple_cat, cat): Return true if successful.  All callers changed.
+	(simple_cat, cat, main): Use bool for booleans.
+	(simple_cat): Use size_t for sizes.
+	(cat, main): Use the same names for parameters that we use for
+	long options, to avoid confusion.  This inverts the sense of the
+	show_tabs (formerly output_tabs) and number_nonblank
+	(formerly numbers_at_empty_lines) variables.
+	(main): Don't mess up (due to integer overflow) if we are given
+	INT_MAX - INT_MIN + 1 options.
+	[O_BINARY]: Don't invoke isatty unless the other options require it.
+	(main): When deciding whether to use simple_cat, don't worry
+	about binary option; it's irrelevant.
+
+	* src/dcgen: Remove comments, trailing white space, and empty
+	lines from the output strings, to save space.
+	Use a narrower type like 'unsigned char' for line lengths, if
+	that will do.
+	Make the output variables static, not extern.
+

+	pwd when there are multiple names for the working directory
+	(which can happen with an automounter, sigh).
+
+	* src/Makefile.am ($(SCRIPTS)): Don't depend on Makefile;
+	this causes Solaris 8 'make' to refuse to build "groups".
+	(localedir.h): Don't depend on Makefile: this causes Solaris
+	8 'make' to build localedir.h unnecessarily.  The dependence
+	on Makefile is ineffective anyway, since $(localedir) might
+	change even if Makefile hasn't.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_dir): If we can't save the state of the
+	working directory, pretend we started from "/", not ".".
+	This avoids a bug on hosts like Solaris that don't let you

+
+2004-07-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/printf.c (strtiomax, strtoumax): Declare if not already

+	* tests/readlink/can-f: Likewise.
+	* tests/readlink/can-m: Likewise.

+	All uses changed.
+	(NZERO): New macro, if system doesn't define it already.
+	(usage): Distinguish priorities from nice values.
+	Don't assume NZERO is 20.
+	(main): Use bool instead of int where appropriate.
+	If user specifies an adjustment out of range, always truncate it
+	to an inrange value instead of sometimes giving an error message
+	and sometimes not.
+	Do not assume that -1 is an error return from "nice" or
+	"getpriority", as it might be the current nice value minus NZERO.
+	If nice/setpriority fails with errno == EPERM, go ahead and run
+	the command anyway; POSIX requires this.
+
+	* src/pathchk.c: Include euidaccess.h.
+	(dir_ok): Use euidaccess, not access.
+	* src/test.c (R_OK, W_OK, X_OK, FOK): Remove; system.h defines them.

+
+2004-07-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/uptime.c (print_uptime) [defined BOOT_MSG]:

+	* src/who.c (print_line): New arguments USERLEN and LINELEN,
+	since USER and LINE might not be null terminated.  All callers
+	changed.
+
+2004-07-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Fix bug with "tail -f" reported by Rob Holland in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-07/msg00054.html>.
+	Also, remove the undocumented and unsupported-since-2000
+	--max-consecutive-size-changes options.  Fix another related bug:
+	"tail" got confused if stdin, stdout, or stderr were closed.
+	Also, use output buffering even with "tail -f".
+
+	* NEWS: Document this, plus yesterday's patch.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): "size has remained the same"
+	-> "file has not changed", which is more accurate for fifos.
+	* src/tail.c: Include fcntl-safer.h.
+	(COPY_TO_EOF): Set to UINTMAX_MAX, not OFF_T_MAX (which was wrong).
+	(COPY_A_BUFFER): New macro.

+	(long_options, tail_forever, parse_options):
+	Remove (non-)support for --max-consecutive-size-changes.
+	(record_open_fd): New function.
+	(recheck, tail_file): Use it.  Don't assume that stdin is open.
+	(dump_remainder): Add support for new COPY_A_BUFFER special value.
+	Treat errno==EAGAIN like EOF, since it might be a nonblocking read.
+	(recheck): New arg BLOCKING, specifying whether to use blocking reads.
+	All uses changed.
+	(n_live_files): Remove, replacing with...
+	(any_live_files): New function.  All uses changed.
+	(tail_forever): Use nonblocking I/O unless we know that blocking I/O
+	is safe; this avoids some hangs when reading from a fifo.
+	Avoid invoking fstat or sleep when using blocking I/O.
+	Do not check for changes to size if the file is not a regular file,
+	as the size is undefined in that case.
+	Check for changes to mtime or mode, too; this works for non-regular
+	files.
+	(tail_forever, main): Redo fflush strategy to work even when input
+	is nonblocking.  Don't use unbuffered output; just flush when needed.
+
+2004-07-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/tail.c (main): Ignore -f if no file operand is specified
+	and standard input is a pipe.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Do not ignore -f for
+	all pipes, just for when standard input is a pipe and no
+	file operand is specified.
+	* tests/tail/Test.pm: Reinstate f-1 test, since we now pass.
+	Add a new commented-out f-2 test, which we still fail.
+	(test_vector): All f-* tests are special cases, not just f-1.
+
+2004-07-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/uptime.c: Include c-strtod.h.
+	(print_uptime): Use c_strtod instead of setlocale and sscanf.
+	Use long int rather than int to count days (for 64-bit hosts),
+	and check for arithmetic overflow when converting double to time_t.
+
+2004-07-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/printf.c (vstrtold): Renamed from vstrtod.
+	Now returns long double.  All uses changed.
+	(print_direc): Use "L" length modifier when printing floating point
+	numbers, since we're now printing long double.
+
+2004-07-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	printf cleanup, to avoid undefined behavior, to add support for
+	formats that Bash supports, and to support wide integers like
+	Bash does.
+
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* src/printf.c (UNSPECIFIED): Remove.  All uses now replaced by
+	booleans, so that we don't reserve any values for precision or
+	width (like Bash).
+	(STRTOX): Use prototype, not K&R-style definition.
+	(vstrtoimax): Renamed from xstrtol (to avoid confusion with xstrtol
+	in ../lib), with type change to intmax_t.
+	All uses changed.
+	(vstrtoumax): Renamed from xstrtoul, with type change to uintmax_t.
+	All uses changed.
+	(vstrtod): Renamed from xstrtod.  All uses changed.
+	(print_direc): Use boolean arg instead of special value to indicate
+	a missing precision or width.  LENGTH no longer includes
+	length modifiers or conversion character.  New arg CONVERSION
+	now specifies conversion character.
+	Use intmax_t-width formatting for integers (like Bash).
+	Add support for C99 %a, %A, %F (like Bash).
+	Add support for field width with %c (POSIX requires this).
+	Add a FIXME for lack of support for field width and precision
+	for %b.
+	Add support for '\'', '0' flags.
+	Check for invalid combinations of flags, field width, precision,
+	and conversion, to prevent use of undefined behavior.
+	Allow multiple length modifiers, for formats like "%lld" (like Bash).
+	Add support for C99 'j', 't', 'z' length modifiers (like Bash).
+	In error message, output entire invalid conversion specification,
+	instead of merely outputting % followed by the conversion char.
+	* tests/misc/printf: Add tests for the above.
+
+2004-04-03  Dmitry V. Levin  <ldv@altlinux.org>
+
+	Change "readlink -f" to be more compatible with prior implementations.
+	Add more canonicalize options, -e and -m.

+	Do not add canonicalize.c here.
+
+	* src/readlink.c (longopts): Add new options.
+	(usage): Document them.
+	(canonicalize_fname): New proxy function.

+	* tests/misc/readlink: Remove file.
+
+2004-07-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2004-07-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_dir): Assume path_concat returns non-NULL.
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Likewise.
+	* src/mv.c (movefile): Likewise.
+
+	* src/cp.c (make_path_private): 2nd arg is now size_t, not int,
+	to avoid problem when path_concat dir name is longer than 2 GiB (!).
+
+	* src/nohup.c (main): Don't pass NULL first argument to path_concat.
+	This cleans up the semantics a bit, as we no longer try to open the
+	same file twice.
+
+2004-07-01  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* NEWS: Add short names -t and -T for --target-directory

+
+2004-06-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+2004-06-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Add support for --no-target-directory option.
+
+	* NEWS: Document it.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (Common options, Target directory, cp

+
+2004-06-29  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Don't let verbose-mode output from a subshell obscure actual differences.

+
+2004-06-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Add support for 'install --target-directory', an option

+2004-06-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+2004-06-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Use more-consistent rules among cp, ln, and mv when dealing with
+	last operands that are (or look like) directories.
+
+	* src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): New, nearly-common function,
+	It reports an error if the destination appears to be a directory
+	(e.g., because it has a trailing slash) but is not.
+	* src/ln.c, src/mv.c: Likewise.
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Use it.
+	* src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Don't assume argc is positive.
+	Don't bother to lstat dest, since copy() will do that for us.
+	Use "const" to avoid the need for cast.
+
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Don't output a usage message because of file
+	problems (e.g., an operand is not a directory).  Use it only for
+	syntax.  Standardize on "target %s is not a directory" for the
+	diagnostic.
+	* src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Remove test for trailing slash, since
+	target_directory_operand now does this.
+	* src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/mv.c (movefile): Likewise.
+
+	* src/cp.c (main): Reject multiple target directories.
+	Check whether a specified target is a directory when parsing the

+	* src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/ln.c (isdir): Remove decl; no longer needed.
+	* src/mv.c (isdir, lstat): Likewise.
+
+	* src/ln.c (do_link): New arg dest_is_dir.  All uses changed.
+	Don't check the destination ourself; rely on dest_is_dir.
+	This way we can avoid lstatting the destination in the
+	usual case, and in the worst case we lstat 1, not 3 times.
+	Don't bother to unlink unless link failed; this saves a syscall.
+	Remove unnecessary backup_succeeded flag;
+	it was identical to "dest_backup != NULL".
+
+	* src/ln.c (main): Use int to count to argc, not unsigned int.
+	This handles negative operand counts.
+	* src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/mv.c (do_move): Don't call hash_init; expect the caller to
+	do it, for consistency with cp.c and ln.c.  All callers changed.
+	(movefile): dest_is_dir parameter is now bool, not int.
+	(main): Standardize on "missing destination file operand after %s"
+	for the diagnostic, for consistency with cp.c.
+
+	* tests/mv/diag: Don't assume "mv --target=nonexistentdir"
+	will complain about the arg count.
+	Adjust to new (briefer) diagnostics.
+	* tests/cp/fail-perm: Add a test to verify that we get the new
+	diagnostic when failing to copy through a symlink-to-inaccessible-dir.
+
+2004-06-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Fix a bug: formerly, if d/x was a directory and x a file, "ln x
+	d/" incorrectly created a link d/x/x.  It also saves some system
+	calls.
+
+	* NEWS: Document the fix.
+
+	* src/ln.c (main): Don't append basename to dest if this
+	results in an existing directory name.
+	* tests/ln/misc: See whether a trailing slash is followed too far.
+
+2004-06-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/printf.c (main): When given no arguments, print the standard

+
+2004-06-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/mknod.c (main): Add \n at the end of message output via fprintf.
+
+2004-06-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2004-06-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/*: Replace all occurrences of `(exit N); exit' with

+	improper exit status when exiting via e.g., a trapped interrupt.
+	Thanks to a report from Bob Proulx.
+
+2004-06-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/who.c (idle_string, print_user): New arg boottime,
+	specifying the most recent boot time.  All uses changed.
+	(idle_string) Consider a line to be "old" if it hasn't been used
+	since the last boot time.  Watch out for overflow when computing
+	times, and for times in the future.
+	(idle_string): Record latest boot time.
+
+2004-06-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/test.c (usage): Correct description of `-t FD'.  The file

+
+2004-05-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Several fixes to chgrp and chown for compatibility with POSIX and BSD:
+
+	  Check for incompatible options.  When -R and --dereference are
+	  both used, then either -H or -L must also be used.  When -R and -h
+	  are both used, then -P must be in effect.
+
+	  -H, -L, and -P have no effect unless -R is also specified.
+	  If -P and -R are both specified, -h is assumed.
+
+	  Do not optimize away the chown() system call when the file's owner
+	  and group already have the desired value.  This optimization was
+	  incorrect, as it failed to updated the last-changed time and reset
+	  special permission bits, as POSIX requires.
+
+	  Do not report an error if the owner or group of a
+	  recursively-encountered symbolic link cannot be updated because
+	  the file system does not support it.
+
+	* NEWS: Document the above.
+
+	* src/chgrp.c (main): Check for incompatible options.  -R --dereference
+	requires either -H or -L, and -R -h requires -P.  If -H, specify
+	FTS_PHYSICAL as well as FTS_COMFOLLOW; this is faster.  Make this
+	file as much like chown.c as possible.
+	* src/chown.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Use ent->fts_statp only if
+	needed.  Chown a directory only after chowning its children; this
+	avoids problems if the new directory ownership doesn't permit
+	access to the children.  Dereference symlinks before doing
+	ROOT_DEV_INO_CHECK, not after, so that we catch symlinks to /.
+	Do not optimize away the chown() system call when the file's owner
+	and group already have the desired value.  POSIX does not permit
+	this optimization.  Rely on chown and lchown to do the right
+	thing with symlinks and/or -1 arguments, now that we have wrappers
+	to do this.  Use ENOTSUPP not ENOSYS, and ignore all ENOTSUPP
+	errors, not just command-line errors.
+	(chown_files): Pass FTS_NOSTAT to xfts_open if we don't need file status.
+
+	* src/system.h (ENOTSUP): Remove.
+
+	* tests/chgrp/basic: Use chown --from to discover whether the
+	group changed, since chgrp now changes unconditionally.  This
+	complicates the sed script a bit.  Do not specify --dereference,
+	since it's the default (and we want to test this).  Adjust output
+	to match the fact that chgrp no longer optimizes the case of
+	changing a file's group to the same value as before.
+	* tests/chgrp/posix-H: Do not attempt to combine -h and -H; these
+	options are incompatible, and their behavior is undefined with POSIX.
+	(changed, not_changed): Adjust to match the fact that -h is no longer
+	specified.  Sort names.
+	* tests/chown/deref: Adjust error-diagnostic spelling to match new
+	behavior.

+	If read fails on output file, report the earlier lseek failure
+	instead; this fixes a FIXME in dd_copy.
+	(advance_input_after_read_error): New function.
+	(dd_copy): Use it, instead of assuming that failed reads

+	* tests/tr/Test.pm: Add a few tests for the below.  Alas, most of
+	the test cases wouldn't be portable, or would take too much CPU
+	time, or both.
+
+	* src/tr.c (N_CHARS, N_CHAR_CLASSES): Now an enum, not a macro.
+	This is safe since the code already assumes N_CHARS fits in int.
+	(Filter): Remove: we want to prototype everything.
+	(ORD, CHR): Remove.  All uses removed.  Some replaced with:
+	(uchar): New function.  All places where a char must be converted
+	to an unsigned char are now done this way, not by ad-hoc methods.
+	(count): New type.  Use it whenever counts or states are needed.
+	(BEGIN_STATE): Increase from INT_MAX - 1 (which was bogus, anyway,
+	since we used it in an unsigned int context) to UINTMAX_MAX - 1.
+	(REPEAT_COUNT_MAXIMUM): New macro.  Use it in place of BEGIN_STATE
+	whenever appropriate.
+	(NOT_A_CHAR): Remove global macro; now a local enum.
+	(UL_LOWER, UL_UPPER, UL_NONE): No longer specify values, since
+	the rest of the code no longer depends on them.
+	(class_ok): Remove; all uses changed to use inline comparisons.
+	(RE_NO_TYPE): Remove; wasn't used or needed.
+	(struct List_element): normal_char and equiv_code are now unsigned
+	char, not int.
+	first_char, last_char, and the_repeated_char are now unsigned char,
+	not unsigned int.  repeat_count is now count, not size_t.
+	All uses changed.
+	(struct Spec_list): state is now count, not unsigned int.
+	lengthis now count, not size_t.
+	n_indefinite_repeats is now size_t, not int.
+	has_equiv_class, has_char_class, and has_restricted_char_class
+	are now bool, not int.  All uses changed.
+	(struct E_string): s is now char *, not unsigned char *.
+	escaped is now bool *, not int *.  All uses changed.
+	(ES_MATCH): Remove macro, replacing with:
+	(es_match): New inline function.  All uses changed.
+	(squeeze_repeats, complement, posix_pedantic, truncate_set1,
+	translating): Now bool, not int.
+	(io_buf): Now char array, not unsigned char.
+	(SET_TYPE): Remove.  All uses replaced with bool.
+	(is_equiv_class_member, unquote, append_range, append_char_class,
+	append_equiv_class, find_closing_delim, star_digits_closebracket,
+	build_spec_list, parse_str, homogeneous_spec_list):
+	Now returns bool, not int.  All uses changed.
+	(is_equiv_class_member): Now inline.
+	(is_equiv_class_member, is_char_class_member, make_printable_str,
+	append_normal_char, append_range, append_repeated_char,
+	get_s2_spec_stats):
+	Args are now of proper integer type.
+	(unquote, look_up_char_class, make_printable_str,
+	append_equiv_class, build_spec_list, squeeze_filter):
+	Avoid unsigned char *p; gently convert *p to unsigned char instead.
+	(unquote, get_spec_stats): Do not jump past declarations and then
+	use them; C doesn't allow this in portable programs.
+	(make_printable_str): Check for overflow in size calculations.
+	(xmemdup): Remove.  All uses rewritten.
+	(find_bracketed_repeat): Args are now of proper pointer-to-integer
+	type.  Do not reject [c*0].  Use xstrtoumax, not xstrtoul.
+	(find_bracketed_repeat, star_digits_closebracket): Check that the
+	digits are not escaped.
+	(build_spec_list): Don't bother to copy opnd_str; not needed.
+	(build_spec_list, get_next): Simplify internal logic a bit.
+	(card_of_complement): Fix bug due to char overflow.
+	(get_spec_stats): Don't assume len fits into int.
+	Check for integer overflow.  Use abort() rather than assert(0).
+	(string2_extend): Fix subscript error: is_char_class_member (..., 255)
+	was being invoked.
+	(squeeze_filter): READER is never null now; simplify code.
+	READER arg now has a simpler type.  Remove unnecessary casts.
+	(squeeze_filter, main): Calls to fwrite improperly checked result
+	against zero, rather than against requested size.
+	(plain_read): New function.
+	(read_and_delete, read_and_xlate):
+	Remove unused filter arg, and don't worry about hit_eof.
+	Simplify by using plain_read.
+	(set_initialize): Args are bool and bool *, not int and SET_TYPE *.
+	(main): Always pass a non-null procedure to squeeze_filter.
+	Rewrite so that class_ok isn't needed.

+2004-05-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	rm -r would get a failed assertion when run from an inaccessible

+
+	* src/remove.h (struct rm_options) [require_restore_cwd]: New member.
+	* src/remove.c (struct cwd_state): Define.
+	(AD_pop_and_chdir): Redesign interface so that a restore_cwd failure
+	can be detected by the caller.  Instead of returning a malloc'd
+	directory name, communicate it to caller via a new parameter, and
+	return an indication of whether restore_cwd failed.  Update caller.
+	Eliminate an unnecessary call to AC_stack_top.
+	(remove_dir): Change type of cwd_state parameter to `struct cwd_state'
+	so we can now communicate to caller whether/how functions like
+	restore_cwd have failed.  Update caller.
+	(rm_1): Fail if we've failed to restore the working directory
+	and the name of the next file to remove is `.'-relative.
+	(rm): Fail if the require_restore_cwd flag is true and we've
+	failed to restore the working directory.
+	* src/mv.c (rm_option_init): Initialize new member,

+2004-05-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_unmarked_diagnostics): Now that the unmarked

+
+	* src/shred.c: Use translatable diagnostics, e.g.
+	change "%s: remove" to _("%s: failed to remove") and

+
+2004-05-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/shred.c (names): Bring back lower-case letters, "_", and

+
+2004-05-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	In shred, check for errors from fdatasync more carefully.  If
+	fdatasync fails with errno==EINVAL, it means this implementation
+	does not support synchronized I/O for this file.  Do not report
+	this as an error, as (for example) AIX 5.2 fdatasync reports it
+	for raw disk devices.  Problem reported by Albert Chin in
+	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2004-05/msg00028.html>.
+
+	Check for write errors, though: the old code ignored them.
+	Improve error checking in a few other cases, too (e.g., close of a
+	directory).
+
+	Also, change several 'int' values to 'bool', so that the error
+	checking is a bit clearer.  Similarly, change unsigned values
+	to size_t where appropriate.
+
+	* src/shred.c: Include "dirname.h".
+	(datasync) [!HAVE_FDATASYNC]: Remove.
+	(dosync): New function.
+	(dopass): Use it.  Return 1 on write error, -1 on other error.
+	All callers changed.  Report write error if dosync does.
+	(do_wipefd, wipefd, wipename, wipefile): Return bool (true/false),
+	not int (0/-1).  All callers changed.  Return false if there's a
+	write error.
+	(incname): Return bool (true/false), not int (0/1).  Accept
+	size_t length, not unsigned.  All callers changed.  Do not
+	bother checking for non-digits; it can't happen.  Replace
+	recursion with iteration.
+	(wipename): Use dir_name, base_name, etc. instead of assuming
+	Unix file names.  Use size_t for length, not unsigned.
+	Report error if unlink or close fails.
+	(wipename, main): Use bool for booleans.
+
+	(names): Use only digits and uppercase letters, for greater
+	portability.

+
+2004-05-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	chown --dereference did nothing when the owner/group of a

+
+	* src/sort.c (first_same_file): Do not treat input pipes

+
+2004-05-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Don't assume that "make -C" works; Solaris "make" doesn't have -C.
+

+	system tr rather than ./tr and we don't use tr -s.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (all_programs): Use it.

+
+	Fix bug where "rm" gave up too easily, reported by Dan Jacobsen in
+	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-05/msg00013.html>.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_entry): Check for errno values like ENOENT
+	that show the file cannot be directory, instead of for errno
+	values like EPERM that show the file might be a directory.  This
+	is necessary because, when a single unlink() call has multiple
+	reasons to fail, it can set errno to any of those reasons; it's
+	only the rare errno value like ENOENT that excludes all the other
+	possible reasons to fail even when the file is a directory.
+	(remove_cwd_entries): Don't attempt chdir if the file is known
+	to not be a directory.
+	(remove_dir): Use the same method that remove_cwd_entries uses
+	(for some reason they differed).  Don't assert that saved_errno
+	must be EPERM; it might be just about anything.
+
+2004-05-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/id.c (xgetgroups): Use xnmalloc, rather than xmalloc.

+	(show_disk): Remove unused statp arg.  Return bool, not int.
+	(show_point): Rewrite to avoid gotos.  Use the same algorithm
+	for lofs and dummies for each pass through the mount table,
+	rather than subtly different algorithms (which are probably
+	inadvertent).
+
+2004-05-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+	When chown or chgrp is modifying the referent of a symlink,

+	* src/sort.c (limfield): Make a comment clearer.
+
+2004-04-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix POSIX-conformance bug: "sort -k 3,3.5b" is supposed to skip
+	leading blanks when computing the location of the field end;
+	it is not supposed to skip trailing blanks.  Solaris 8 "sort"
+	does conform to POSIX.  Also fix the documentation to clarify
+	this and related issues.
+
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Mention -k earlier, so
+	that the options are in alphabetical order.  Describe how -b works
+	more-accurately; this involves fixing some examples, too.  Mention
+	what happens if the start field falls after an end field or after
+	a line end.  Warn about using -k without -b, -g, -M, -n, or -t.
+	Add an example of how to sort IPv4 addresses and Apache Common
+	Log Format dates.  Remove a duplicate example.
+	(Putting the tools together): Use separate options rather
+	than agglomerating them.
+	* src/sort.c (limfield): Use skipeblanks, not skipsblanks, to
+	decode whether to skip leading blanks.
+	(trailing_blanks): Remove.
+	(fillbuf, getmonth, keycompare): Don't trim trailing blanks.
+
+	* tests/pr/Test.pm: Fix typo in env_default comment.

+
+2004-04-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	More signal-handling cleanup for ls.c.  Do not allow signals to
+	happen between arbitrary output bytes, as the
+	restore-default-color sequence can bollix up multibyte chars or
+	color-change sequences in the ordinary output.  Instead, process
+	signals only between printing a file name and changing the color
+	back to non_filename_text color.  That way, if the signal handler
+	changes the color (to the default), 'ls' will change it back when
+	'ls' continues (after being suspended).
+
+	Also, do not bother with signal-handling unless stdout is a
+	controlling terminal; this lets stdio buffer better when "ls
+	--color" is piped or sent to a file.
+
+	* src/ls.c (sigprocmask, sigset_t) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: New macros.
+	Do not include "full-write.h"; no longer needed.
+	(tcgetpgrp) [! HAVE_TCGETPGRP]: New macro.
+	(put_indicator_direct): Remove.  All callers changed to use
+	put_indicator.
+	(caught_signals, interrupt_signal, stop_signal_count): New vars.
+	(restore_default_color): Don't bother checking for put_indicator
+	failure.
+	(sighandler): Don't handle SIGTSTP; that's another handler now.
+	Simply set interrupt_signal to the signal, then exit.
+	(stophandler, process_signals): New functions.
+	(main): Don't output any color changes until _after_ the signal
+	handlers are set up.  This fixes a race condition where 'ls'
+	could be interrupted while initializing colors, and leaving the
+	terminal in an undesirable state.
+	Don't mess with signal-handling if standard output is not a
+	controlling terminal.
+	When exiting, restore the default color, then restore the
+	default signal handling, then act on any signals that weren't
+	acted on yet.
+	Do not print //DIRED// etc. in colors; this avoids the need
+	to catch signals when printing them.
+	(print_name_with_quoting): Process signals just before switching
+	color back to non_filename_text.

+
+	tee ignored SIGPIPE, but POSIX doesn't allow this.

+
+2004-04-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Signal-handling cleanup for coreutils.  Here are the highlights:
+
+	 - csplit sometimes failed to remove files when interrupted.
+	 - csplit didn't clean up if two signals arrived nearly simultaneously.
+	 - install -s would infloop on System V if SIGCHLD was ignored.
+	 - ls could incorrectly restore color if multiple signals
+	   arrived nearly simultaneously.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (sigprocmask, sigset_t) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]:
+	Define.
+	(filename_space, prefix, suffix, digits, files_created, remove_files):
+	Now volatile.
+	(caught_signals): New var.
+	(cleanup): Block signals while deleting all files.
+	(cleanup_fatal, handle_line_error, regexp_error):
+	Mark with ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
+	(create_output_file, close_output_file, interrupt_handler):
+	Block signals while changing the number of output files,
+	to fix some race conditions.
+	(delete_all_files): Do nothing if remove_files is zero.
+	Clear files_created.
+	(main): Don't mess with signals until after argument processing
+	is done.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (main): Rewrite signal-catching code to make it
+	similar to other coreutils programs.  When processing signals,
+	block all signals that we catch, but do not block signals that we
+	don't catch.  Avoid problems with unsigned int warnings.
+	* src/ls.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/sort.c (main): Likewise.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (interrupt_handler):
+	Use void, not (obsolete) RETSIGTYPE.
+	* src/shred.c (sigill_handler, isaac_seed_machdep): Likewise.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (interrupt_handler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]:
+	Use simpler "signal (sig, SIG_DFL)" rather than sigaction equivalent.
+	* src/ls.c (sighandler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Likewise.
+	* src/sort.c (sighandler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Likewise.

+
+	* src/install.c: Include <signal.h>.
+	(main) [defined SIGCHLD]: Set SIGCHLD handler to the default, if -s is
+	given, since System V fork+wait does not work if SIGCHLD is ignored.

+	* src/ls.c (sighandler) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Reset signal
+	handler to self, not to SIG_IGN, since SIGTSTP can be received
+	more than once.
+	(main): Use SA_RESTART, as that is simpler than checking for EINTR
+	failures all over the place.
+
+2004-04-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Clarify comment.
+
+	* man/help2man: Accept new option: --program-name=NAME, so that we
+	can override the one in --version output.  This is needed solely
+	so that test.1 doesn't refer to `[' as the program name.

+
+2004-04-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (.re-list): New rule/file, to replace
+	hard-coded list of header file names.
+	(sc_system_h_headers): Use the new file.
+	Don't look for sys2.h anymore.
+
+	* src/system.h: Include new "stat-macros.h" rather than hard-coding
+	all of its macro definitions -- the list was slightly out of date.
+	Suggestion from Dmitry V. Levin.
+
+2004-04-08  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

+
+	* src/dd.c (dd_copy): Mark two diagnostics for translations.

+	ahead and OR in the -1 when fcntl fails.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_dd_max_sym_length): New target.
+	(syntax-check-rules): Add it.
+
+	* src/md5sum.c (PROGRAM_NAME) [algorithm == ALG_SHA1]:

+
+2004-03-31  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/Fetish.pm (run_tests): Remove `.orig' file.
+	Remove debugging diagnostic.
+
+	Specifying an invalid --width=N (-w) or --gap-size=N (-g)
+	would not elicit an error.
+	* src/ptx.c: Include "xstrtol.h" and "quotearg.h".
+	(main): Don't use atoi.  Use xstrtoul instead.
+
+2004-03-30  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof): New rule.

+
+2004-03-29  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/files0-from: Use new OUT_SUBST directive, so that this
+	test is not sensitive to system-dependent block size differences.
+	Prompted by a report of Solaris 8 differences from Paul Eggert.
+
+	* tests/Fetish.pm: Accept new directives: OUT_SUBST, ERR_SUBST.
+	Rename `%tmp' to `%actual'.  Reverse order of last two args to

+	* src/who.c: Include "vasprintf.h", for asprintf.
+
+2004-03-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Minor optimization:
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Don't record dev/inode for directories.
+
+	Under some circumstances, without -c, du would mistakenly count the
+	space of hard-linked files, not just the first one it encountered.
+	Reported by Anthony Thyssen.
+	* src/du.c (du_files): Don't ever clear the set of `seen' dev/inodes.
+
+	* src/du.c: Rename global `print_totals' to `print_grand_total'.

+	* src/du.c (EXPECTED_BYTES_PER_FILE_NAME, DEFAULT_PROJECTED_N_FILES):
+	Remove: not used.
+	(usage): Say "NUL-terminated", not "NUL-separated".
+	(main): Check for I/O error when istream is closed.
+	Allow --files0-from=F even if F is empty; this specifies no files.
+	(du_files): Now that we allow the list of files to be empty,

+
+2004-03-24  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Remove --info-page= option, reverting
+	the change of 2004-01-22.  I can no longer reproduce the problem
+	that prompted that change, and `info coreutils pr' would display the
+	`printing text' section of the manual, not the one on `pr invocation'.
+
+	* tests/du/files0-from (nul-1, nul-2): Adjust expected diagnostics
+	to match corrected output.
+

+	get_date when talking about the function name.
+	(Seconds since the Epoch): New section, containing the time_t
+	info moved from Date input formats section, along with new
+	info about the @ syntax.  Mention negative time stamps,
+	fractional time stamps, and leap seconds.
+	(General date syntax): Modernize examples a bit to reflect new
+	features.
+	(General date syntax, Relative items in date strings):
+	Use ' rather than " to quote formats.
+	(Time of day items): Add an example with fractional seconds.
+	Describe fractional-second syntax.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (touch_LDADD): New macro, since `touch' now
+	needs clock_gettime.
+
+	* src/date.c (enum Time_spec): New enum TIME_SPEC_NS.
+	(time_spec_string, time_spec, show_date): Support it.
+	(usage): Remove description of -ITIMESPEC, as it's obsolete and
+	confusing.  Mention --iso-8601=ns.
+	(batch_convert): getline returns ssize_t, not int.
+
+	* src/touch.c (newtime): Now an array of two timespecs, one
+	for access and one for modification.

+2004-03-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 5.2.1.
+
+	Sometimes, when source and destination partition are different,
+	mv mistakenly fails to preserve a hard link.  Reported by IIDA Yosiaki.
+
+	* src/copy.c: When moving a set of N hard-linked files between
+	partitions, via two or more command line arguments where the
+	command line argument containing the Nth link contains no other
+	link to that same file, mv would mistakenly copy the file, rather
+	than hard-linking it to the other(s).  That happens because when the
+	final link is processed, its link count has been reduced to 1 since
+	the other links have been `copied' to the destination partition
+	and the source links have been removed.
+	(copy_internal): When in move mode, use the source dev/inode
+	pair to look up destination name even when st_nlink == 1.
+	* src/cp-hash.c (src_to_dest_lookup): New function.
+	* src/cp-hash.h (src_to_dest_lookup): Add prototype.
+	* tests/mv/part-hardlink: New file.  Test for the above fix.

+
+	* announce-gen: Sync with autoconf.
+
+	* tests/ls/time-1: Exit 77 (not 1) if we can't set up for the test.

+	NFS-mounted from some sort of Sun.
+
+2004-03-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Use automake-1.8.3.  Regenerate dependent files.
+
+2004-03-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/deref-args: Also convert sizes in the 70-79 kB range,
+	so that this test works with SELinux-enabled systems.
+	Based on a patch from Tim Waugh.
+
+	`join -1 x' would give a misleading diagnostic
+	* src/join.c (string_to_join_field): Report that a non-numeric field
+	number is invalid, rather than `so large that it is not representable'.
+	* tests/join/Test.pm (invalid-j): New partial test for the above fix.
+
+2004-03-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	cp --sparse=always sparse-image-file.img /dev/hda1 could

+
+	* src/comm.c (usage): Tell what comm does when there are no options.

+	Document what forms integers may take, and say "integer"

+	that "expr" can misinterpret, and how to work around the
+	problem.
+	* src/expr.c (eval, eval7, eval6, eval5, eval4, eval3, eval2, eval1):
+	Accept a bool argument specifying whether to evaluate the
+	expression.  This is to allow short-circuit evaluation.  All
+	callers changed.
+	(null): Report that a string is zero even if it has
+	a form like "-0" or "00".
+	(eval1, eval): Use short-circuit evaluation for | and &.

+
+2004-02-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+	$(srcdir)/../Makefile.am.in, rather than $<.
+	Suggestion from Michael Elizabeth Chastain.
+
+2004-02-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* config/install-sh: Make this script executable.
+	* Makefile.am (dist-hook): New target, to ensure that config/install-sh
+	is executable.  Otherwise, on systems that lack a suitable install
+	binary, `make install' would fail, because of the way this script
+	is invoked (without `$SHELL ' prefix).
+	Reported by Bob Proulx.
+
+2004-02-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 5.1.3.
+
+	* tests/rm/rm5: Avoid triggering a bug in OSF/Tru64's sed
+	that would cause an unwarranted test failure.
+	* tests/rm/rm3: Likewise.
+
+2004-02-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Remove xstat function pointer member.  The way it was used was not
+	portable, since some systems (OSF V5.1, Solaris 2.5.1) provide static
+	inline `stat' and `lstat' functions, thus making the tests of
+	`xstat == lstat' in copy.c always fail.
+	* src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [xstat]: Remove member.
+	(XSTAT): New macro.
+	* src/copy.c (copy_dir): Set `.dereference' member, not .xstat.
+	(copy_internal): Use `XSTAT (x, ...)' in place of `*(x->xstat) (...)'.
+	Use `x->dereference == DEREF_NEVER' in place of `x->xstat == lstat'.
+	(valid_options): Remove now-obsolete FIXME comments.
+
+	* src/cp.c (re_protect): Use `XSTAT (x, ...)' in place of
+	`*(x->xstat) (...)'.
+	(do_copy): Declare/use local xstat rather than x->xstat.
+	(main): Remove code that set x.xstat.
+	* src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Don't initialize xstat member.
+	* src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
+
+	* Makefile.cfg (gnu_ftp_host-alpha, etc.): Un-factor .gnu.org suffix,
+	so that emit_upload_commands can use these variables, too.
+
+2004-02-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/rm/deep-1: Remove `du' stack space test.
+	Apparently, `ulimit -s N' isn't portable enough.
+	This test will be restored (with a guard against losing ulimit)
+	in its own file later.
+
+	* tests/rm/deep-1 (deep): Remove progress-style diagnostics,
+	since this test doesn't take long enough to merit them.
+	Run du on $tmp (the containing dir), not $deep, the full path to leaf.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (signatures): Remove definition.
+	Now, automake's gnupload handles this.
+	(%.sig: %): Remove now-unused rule.
+	(rel-files): Use automake's $(DIST_ARCHIVES), rather than
+	`$(distdir).tar.bz2 $(distdir).tar.gz'.
+	(emit-upload-commands): Adjust to use gnupload.
+
+2004-02-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/system.h (ST_TIME_CMP_NS, ST_TIME_CMP): Remove definitions.
+	(ATIME_CMP, CTIME_CMP, MTIME_CMP, TIMESPEC_NS): Likewise.
+	Now, those are all defined in timespec.h.
+	Include timespec.h.
+
+	* src/date.c: Don't include timespec.h, now that system.h does it.
+
+2004-02-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Don't dump core if localtime returns NULL (possible on
+	hosts with 64-bit time_t and 32-bit int).
+	* src/date.c: Include "inttostr.h".
+	(batch_convert, main):
+	If time conversion fails, exit with nonzero status.
+	(show_date): Return int to report conversion failure.
+	Print the time as an int if localtime fails.
+	* src/uptime.c: Print "??" if the current clock can't
+	be converted by localtime.  This won't happen until the year
+	2*31 + 1900, but we don't want to dump core even if the current
+	clock has the wrong value.
+
+	* src/stat.c: Include "inttostr.h".
+	(human_time): Print the date/time as a number of seconds since the
+	epoch if it can't be converted by localtime.  This is better than
+	just saying "invalid", and is consistent with what "ls" does.
+	Don't dump core if the year has more than 48 digits; this isn't
+	possible on any contemporary host, but we might as well do it right.
+
+2004-01-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/stat.c (human_time): Accept time rather than
+	pointer-to-const-time parameter, for clarity.  All callers changed.
+
+2004-02-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/stat.c (do_stat): Remove extra trailing newline from
+	default formats.  Reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
+
+	Print actual fractional seconds in time stamps, not just `.00000000'.
+	* src/stat.c (human_time): Add and use new parameter, t_ns.
+	(print_stat): Update callers.
+	* src/ls.c (TIMESPEC_NS): Remove definition.
+	* src/system.h (TIMESPEC_NS): Define here, instead, now that stat.c
+	also uses this macro.
+	Nelson H. F. Beebe noticed that ls --full-time printed nonzero
+	fractional seconds for files on an XFS file system, but that stat's
+	fractional seconds were always zero.
+
+2004-01-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/seq.c (print_numbers): Use 'double' for loop index, not
+	'int', to avoid problems with integer overflow.  On almost all
+	machines 'double' works in every case where 'int' works, and
+	it works on other cases besides.
+
+2004-01-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/seq.c (usage): Mention that if INCREMENT is omitted,
+	it defaults to 1, even when FIRST is larger than LAST.
+	Reword so as not to exclude the possibility that INCREMENT be zero.
+
+2004-01-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 5.1.2.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (signatures): Comment out definition.
+
+2004-01-23  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (header_regexp): Add exitfail.
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add help2man.
+	Reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Prefix help2man invocation with `$(PERL) --'
+	so it works on systems with Perl installed somewhere other than in
+	/usr/bin.
+
+	* src/paste.c (paste_parallel): Declare local, chr, to be of type
+	`int', not `char', since it must hold EOF.  This bug would make
+	paste infloop on some systems.  Test failures reported by
+	Nelson H. F. Beebe and Christian Krackowizer.
+
+2004-01-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/rmdir/fail-perm: New file.  Test for just-fixed rmdir bug.
+	* tests/rmdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fail-perm.
+
+	* man/help2man: Fix it so using --info-page='coreutils PROG' works.
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Invoke our own (tweaked) copy of help2man.
+	Use --info-page='coreutils PROG' option.
+	Now, readlink.1 refers the user to `info coreutils readlink'
+	rather than to `info readlink'.  Reported by Matt Swift.
+
+2004-01-21  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

+
+	* src/chroot.c (main): Exit with status 1 rather than 127

+	From Andreas Schwab.
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove `/vg' (prerelease test

+	Various other minor cleanups, mostly to avoid the need for casts.
+
+	(extract_field): Renamed from ADD_FIELD, as it's now a function.

+	(extract_field): Likewise, for 2nd arg.
+	(keycmp): Remove now-unnecessary cast of xmemcoll args.

+	(is_blank): New function, to avoid need to cast arg to unsigned char.
+	(extract_field): Use it.
+
+	(xfields): Rewrite pretty much from scratch.
+
+	(hard_LC_COLLATE): Now bool, not int.
+	(get_line, getseq, add_field_list): Now returns bool, not int.
+	(decode_field_spec, add_field_list): Return true on success (not

+
+2003-11-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+	* tests/du/no-x: Change wording of diagnostic to match latest du.c.

+
+2003-10-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	New options: --preserve-root and --no-preserve-root.

+	argument passed to change_dir_mode.
+	(get_root_dev_ino): New function.

+
+2003-09-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	csplit cleanup.
+
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (csplit invocation):
+	The regexp offset need not have a sign; POSIX requires support
+	for signless offets.
+
+	Be more careful about int widths.  For example, remove some
+	arbitrary limits by replacing 'unsigned' with 'size_t',
+	'uintmax_t', etc.  Use standard bool rather than a homegrown type.
+	* lib/Makefile.am (libfetish_a_SOURCES): Add xstrtoimax.c.
+	* src/csplit.c (FALSE, TRUE, boolean): Remove.  All uses changed
+	to <stdbool.h> usage.
+	(struct control): offset is now intmax_t, not int.
+	repeat_forever is now bool, not int.
+	(struct cstring): len is now size_t, not unsigned int.
+	(struct buffer_record): bytes_alloc, bytes_used, num_lines are now
+	size_t, not unsigned.  start_line, first_available are now
+	uintmax_t, not unsigned.
+	(hold_count, control_used): Now size_t, not unsigned.
+	(last_line_number, current_line, bytes_written):
+	Now uintmax_t, not unsigned.
+	(save_to_hold_area, red_input, keep_new_line, record_line_starts,
+	create_new_buffer, get_new_buffer, load_buffer, find_line,
+	process_regexp, split_file, new_control_record, extract_regexp,
+	get_format_width, get_format_prec, max_out):
+	size args, locals, and returned values are now size_t, not unsigned
+	or int.
+	(get_first_line_in_buffer, find_line, write_to_file,
+	handle_line_error, process_line_count, regexp_error, process_regexp,
+	split_file):
+	File line, byte, and repetition counts are now uintmax_t, not unsigned.
+	(check_for_offset): Don't require a sign before the offset.
+	Use xstrtoimax to do the real work.
+	(extract_regexp): Remove harmful cast of size to unsigned.
+	256 -> 1<<CHAR_BIT, for clarity.
+	(get_format_flags): Return at most 3, to avoid worries about overflow.
+
+	(bytes_to_octal_digits): Remove.
+
+	(cleanup): Don't check whether output_stream is NULL, since
+	close_output_file does that for us.
+
+	(new_line_control, create_new_buffer): Use "foo *p = xmalloc
+	(sizeof *p);" instead of the more long-winded alternatives.
+
+	(get_new_buffer): Use O(1) algorithm for resizing a buffer
+	to a much larger size, instead of an O(N) algorithm.
+
+	(process_regexp): Use plain NULL rather than casted 0.
+
+	(make_filename): Use %u, not %d, to format unsigned file number.
+
+	(new_control_record): Use xrealloc exclusively, since it handles
+	NULL reliably.
+
+	(extract_regexp): Change misspelled word in diagnostic.
+
+	(get_format_width): Even if a minimum field width is specified,
+	allow room for enough octal digits to represent the value of
+	the maximum representible integer.  This fixes a potential
+	buffer overrun.  Calculate this room at compile-time, not
+	at run-time; this removes the need for bytes_to_octal_digits.
+	Check for overflow; this removes a FIXME.
+
+	(get_format_prec): Don't allow precision to be signed; it's
+	not ANSI.  Check for overflow.  Remove hardcoded "11" as
+	default precision; this fixes a potential buffer overrun
+	on hosts with wider size_t.
+
+	(get_format_conv_type): Change local variable to be of type
+	unsigned char, not int; this removes a potential subscript
+	violation on hosts where char is signed.
+
+	(max_out): Replace "for (;*p;)" with more-standard "while (*p)".
+	Allow "%%" in format.  Don't overflow when
+	counting lots of percents.
+
+	(usage): Default sprintf format is %02u, not %d.

+	* src/csplit.c (close_output_file): Don't report bogus errno value
+	after ferror discovers an output error.  We don't know the proper
+	errno value, since it might have been caused by any of a whole
+	bunch of calls, and it might have been trashed in the meantime.

+
+	* src/ln.c (do_link): Use SAME_INODE rather than open-coding it.
+
+	When source and destination arguments refer to the same file, reside
+	on a partition (e.g. VFAT) on which distinct names may refer to the
+	same directory entry (often due to variations in case), and when the
+	link count for the file is 1, mv no longer unlinks the file.  Instead,
+	it gives the expected diagnostic that the source and destination are
+	the same.  WARNING: this is an incomplete fix.  If the file happens
+	to have a link count of 2 or greater, such an erroneous mv command
+	will still unlink it.
+	Although that is not possible on vfat or umsdos, it is possible on
+	other file system types, e.g., ntfs, and hpfs.
+	* src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Invoke same_name (which might still
+	return false for names that refer to the same directory entry)
+	only if the link count is 2 or more.
+	* tests/mv/vfat: Show how to demonstrate the above problem.
+	This test is not run.

+
+	* src/sys2.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain) [! ENABLE_NLS]: Define away,

+	are read-only.
+
+	* src/tail.c (tail_lines): Fix a potential (but very hard to exercise)
+	race condition bug.  The bug would be triggered when tailing a file
+	with file pointer not at beginning of file, and where the file was
+	truncated to have a length of less than the initial offset at just
+	the right moment (between the two lseek calls in this function).
+
+	An invalid initial value for *read_pos would result in
+	`tail -n0 -f FILE' and `tail -c0 -f FILE' doing what amounted to a
+	busy-wait rather than sleeping between iterations.  The bug manifests
+	itself only when tailing regular files that are initially nonempty.
+	* src/tail.c (tail_bytes): Set *read_pos to new file offset after
+	each xlseek call.
+	(tail_lines): Likewise, after lseek calls.
+	Reported by Nick Estes.  See http://bugs.debian.org/205251 for details.

+	fold -s -wN would infloop for N < 8 with TABs in the input.

+	* src/fold.c (fold_file): Move contents of `else'-block
+	out of conditional so it's used also for --spaces (-s).
+	* tests/misc/fold: Test for the above fix.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fold.
+
+2003-08-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/nice.c [!NICE_PRIORITY]: Include <sys/resource.h> after
+	system.h so the types from time.h and sys/time.h are available.
+	It appears that this is necessary for OpenBSD, NetBSD, and
+	Darwin 6.5 (MacOS 10.2.5).  Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+

+
+2003-08-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation):
+	Add -d or --numeric-suffixes option to 'split'.
+	From a suggestion by Jesse Kornblum.
+	* src/split.c (suffix_alphabet): New var.
+	(longopts, usage, next_file_name, main): Support -d.
+	(next_file_name, main): Allow -a0, as POSIX requires.
+	(next_file_name): Don't assume ASCII-like encoding;
+	'a' through 'z' are not contiguous in EBCDIC.
+
+2003-08-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Merge getline from gnulib.

+	* src/cut.c: Include getndelim2.h rather than getdelim2.h.
+	(cut_fields): Invoke getndelim2 rather than getdelim2.
+
+2003-08-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (main): Use unsigned int instead of int for `nsigs'
+	and for the indices to iterate through nsigs.
+
+2003-08-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/sort.c: Minor code cleanups, mostly to use more accurate
+	types and to remove unnecessary casts.
+	(min, max): Remove.  All uses changed to MIN and MAX.
+	(hard_lc_collate, hard_LC_TIME, struct buffer.eof, struct
+	keyfield.skipsblanks, struct keyfield.skipeblanks, struct
+	keyfield.numeric, struct keyfield.general_numeric, struct

+	Return the number of blanks to trim.  All uses changed.
+	(getmonth): Use trailing_blanks rather than open code.
+	(keycompare): Do not cast char * to unsigned char *; not needed.
+	CMP_WITH_IGNORE converts args to UCHAR, so no need to convert it
+	ourselves.
+	(compare, main): Use | rather than || to avoid jumps.
+	Replace "diff = NONZERO (alen)" with "diff = 1", since alen must
+	be nonzero there.
+	(check, first_same_file, sort, main):
+	Use bool instead of int local vars when possible.
+	(check): Merge the old 'checkfp' and 'check' into a single function,
+	that returns a boolean (true if the file was ordered).
+	All uses changed.
+	(main): Use int instead of unsigned for iterating through nsigs.
+	Rename local var "posix_pedantic" to "posixly_correct".
+
+2003-08-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/nice.c [!NICE_PRIORITY]: Include <time.h> before <sys/resource.h>
+	to avoid compilation error on Ultrix. Reported by Christian Krackowizer.
+
+	* src/cut.c (cut_fields): Don't read again after encountering an

+	Reported by Christian Krackowizer.
+
+2003-07-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

+
+2003-08-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/shred/remove: Ensure that $? is 0 for the final `exit 0'.
+	Otherwise, with at least the /bin/sh from HPUX 10.20,
+	the trap code would end up converting that to exit 1 and thus an
+	unexpected test failure.  Reported by Christian Krackowizer.
+
+2003-07-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+

+2003-07-29  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2003-07-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+
+2003-07-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/stdbool.hin (_Bool): Make it signed char, instead of
+	an enum type, so that it's guaranteed to promote to int.
+	* src/sort.c (sortlines_temp): Undo previous change.
+
+2003-07-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (sortlines_temp): Declare local `swap' to be `int', not
+	`bool'.  Otherwise, at least one buggy compiler (alpha gcc-2.95.4)
+	would cause lines[-1 - swap] (with swap = false) to evaluate to
+	lines[4294967295].
+
+2003-07-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/priv-check (my_uid): Use `!', not `^' in case pattern `[!0-9]',
+	since /bin/sh of at least NetBSD 1.6 and OpenBSD 3.2 don't accept `^'.
+
+	* src/remove.c (prompt) [! recursive]: Don't prompt about unwritable
+	directories, as required by POSIX.   Reported by Karl Berry.
+	* tests/rm/dir-no-w: New file.  Test for the above fix.
+	* tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir-no-w.
+
+	* tests/mk-script: Emit `$xx', not its expansion.
+
+2003-07-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	This change was inspired by a similar proposal by Stepan Kasal.
+	* src/sort.c (mergelines, sortlines_temp): New functions.
+	(sortlines): Use them, to reduce the number of times that
+	we need to copy 'struct line' values.  This improved CPU
+	performance by about 30% on one 18 MB test.
+	(sort): Don't invoke sortlines unless we have 2 or more lines.
+
+2003-07-26  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
+
+	* src/sort.c (sort): Don't require two `struct line's per text line,
+	the new sort algorithm requires just 1.5.
+
+2003-07-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (validate_path): Use %lu, not %ld.
+	From Paul Eggert.

+	* src/ls.c (sort_files): Put `volatile' in the right place.
+	From Paul Eggert.
+
+2003-07-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Use only one bit per field/offset in array, not one `int'.
+	* src/cut.c (printable_field): Change type to `unsigned char'.
+	(mark_printable_field, is_printable_field): New functions.
+	Use them in place of all direct accesses of `printable_field'.
+
+	* src/expand.c (parse_tabstops): Detect overflow properly.
+	* src/cut.c (set_fields): Likewise.
+
+	* src/rm.c: Include "dirname.h".
+	(usage): Use base_name (program_name) in body of --help output.
+	This lets me...
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): ...back out the kludge of 2003-07-22.
+	Idea from Brendan O'Dea, who suggested using
+	`program_name = basename (argv[0]);' everywhere --
+	can't do that, but using base_name works just fine here.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (AM_INSTALLCHECK_STD_OPTIONS_EXEMPT): Exempt test.
+
+2003-07-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix some POSIX-compliance problems with 'test'.  This makes
+	'test' more compatible with Bash.
+
+	* NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi: Document the following.
+	* src/test.c: Include exitfail.h.
+	(TEST_FAILURE): New constant, used for exit status if 'test' fails.
+	(test-syntax_error): Use it.
+	(binary_operator): Now takes bool arg specifying whether left operand
+	is -l ARG, so that caller determines this rather than us.
+	All uses changed.
+	(term): Use posixtest to evaluate parenthesized subexpressions.
+	(unary_operator, one_argument): Remove support for -t without operand.
+	(one_argument): Take argument from argv[pos].
+	(one_argument, two_arguments, three_arguments): Advance pos.
+	All callers changed.
+	(three_arguments): Look for binary ops before "!".  Then look
+	for parenthesized one_argument expressions, instead of trusting
+	expr () to do the right thing.
+	(posixtest): Now takes number of args.  All callers changed.
+	Treat "( A B )" like "A B".
+	(main): Set exit_failure to TEST_FAILURE.  Don't depend on
+	POSIXLY_CORRECT, as we now conform to POSIX by default.
+	(main) [!LBRACKET]: Do not recognize "--help" or "--verbose" unless.
+	* tests/test/Test.pm (test_vector): Add several tests to check
+	the above.  Syntax errors now exit with status 2, not 1.
+	* man/Makefile.am (mapped_name): Use `../src/[' binary to create test.1.
+
+2003-07-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/help-version: Adjust for above change in test behavior:
+	`[' exits with 2, not 1, and test doesn't accept --help or --version.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (ME): Don't use trick suggested in Make manual.
+	It doesn't work for make-3.79.1.  Reported by Christian Krackowizer.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_system_h_headers): Another syntax check.
+	(syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (validate_path): Cast strlen value to `unsigned long'
+	so it matches `%ld' format even on 32-bit systems.
+
+	* src/fmt.c (flush_paragraph): Cast field width to `int' to
+	avoid warning on 64-bit systems.
+
+	* src/ls.c (sort_files): Make `func' volatile, so it can't be
+	clobbered by a `longjmp' into this function.
+
+2003-07-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (validate_path): Use %ld format (not %d) for size_t
+	value.
+
+	* tests/misc/split-fail: Disable the --line-bytes=$_4gb test,
+	because it'd evoke spurious failure on 64-bit systems.
+
+2003-07-24  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/dd.c (usage): Document the fact that SIGUSR1 makes dd
+	output its current record counts.  Reported by Jurriaan.
+
+	* tests/wc/Test.pm (test_vector): Disable the `PIPE' tests when running
+	`wc' with no options.  This goes along with the change of 2003-07-20.

+
+2003-07-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/cut.c (set_fields): Use xcalloc in place of xmalloc+memset.
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Substitute 's,$t/$*,$*,' on output of

+	* src/wc.c (get_input_fstatus): Fix typo: `stat' was being
+	invoked with a null pointer when there were no file arguments.
+
+2003-07-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (sc_changelog): Add another nit-picky check.
+
+	* src/wc.c (write_counts): Add a comment.
+	(wc): Rename `file' parameter.
+	Set new local, `file', to be the file name, or (when it's NULL)
+	_("standard output") so that all uses of `file' use the proper value.
+	Use STREQ, not strcmp.
+
+2003-07-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	wc count field widths now are heuristically adjusted depending
+	on the input size, if known.  If only one count is printed, it
+	is guaranteed to be printed without leading spaces.
+
+	Previously, wc did not align the count fields if
+	POSIXLY_CORRECT was set, but POSIX did not actually require
+	this undesirable behavior, so it has been removed.
+
+	* NEWS: Document this.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (wc invocation): Likewise.
+
+	* src/wc.c (number_width): New var.
+	(posixly_correct): Remove.
+	(struct fstatus): New struct.
+	(write_counts): Output fields of width number_width.
+	Do not worry about POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+	Use null file, not empty-string file, to denote stdin,
+	since "" is a valid file name on some hosts.
+	(wc, wc_file): New arg fstatus.  Use it to avoid invoking fstat
+	if possible.
+	(wc):  Avoid problems if end_pos - current_pos overflows.
+	Do not print odd message if stdin has a read error.
+	(get_input_fstatus, compute_number_width): New functions.
+	(main): Use them to implement the new behavior.
+	Ignore POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+
+	* tests/wc/Test.pm: Adjust to the new output widths.
+
+2003-07-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Don't create temporary directory --
+	we don't use it.
+
+	* tests/shred/remove: Don't open-code test for UID != 0.
+	Use priv-check's require-non-root instead.
+	Update to use newer framework.
+
+	* tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_expr): Record that
+	expr exits with status of 3 for e.g., a write error.
+
+	* tests/priv-check: Use `id -u' to see if we're running as root,
+	rather than trying go write to an write-protected file.
+	When running as root, ensure $NON_ROOT_USERNAME is valid.
+	When running as root with `require-non-root', ensure that `.'
+	is writable by $NON_ROOT_USERNAME, then reinvoke $0 set-user-ID
+	to $NON_ROOT_USERNAME.  If `.' is not writable, then skip the test.
+
+	* src/printenv.c: Include "exitfail.h".
+	(main): Set exit_failure rather than calling close_stdout_set_status.
+	* src/date.c: Likewise.
+	* src/sort.c: Likewise.
+	* src/tty.c: Likewise.
+
+2003-07-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/touch/not-owner: Update to use newer framework.
+
+	* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Use $srcdir/../priv-check, create a temporary
+	directory, and remove Perl-coded `you may not run as root' test.
+	* tests/cp/fail-perm: Use $srcdir/../priv-check, rather than
+	hard-coding something not quite equivalent.
+	Paul Jarc reported the inconsistent diagnostics.
+
+	* src/sort.c (main): Use close_stdout via atexit.
+	Now `sort --version' and `sort --help' fail, as they should
+	when their output is redirected to /dev/full.
+
+	* src/su.c (usage): Don't call close_stdout here.
+	(main): Use close_stdout via atexit.
+	Now `su --version > /dev/full' fails, as it should.
+	Somehow, the change of 2000-05-07 that purports to fix this
+	was not checked in.
+
+	* tests/help-version (--help/--version vs. /dev/full): Special-case
+	`[' to protect it from expected_failure_status-`eval'.
+
+	* src/uniq.c (writeline): Use a SPACE, not a TAB between the
+	count and the corresponding line, as required by POSIX.
+	Reported by Clement Wang.
+	* tests/uniq/Test.pm (101, 102): Update tests of -c accordingly.
+
+	* tests/expr/basic: Add tests for when exit status is 2.
+
+	* src/nohup.c (NOHUP_FOUND_BUT_CANNOT_INVOKE, NOHUP_FAILURE):
+	Use an anonymous `enum', rather than #define.
+
+2003-07-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/expr.c: Include "exitfail.h", "quotearg.h".
+	(EXPR_INVALID, EXPR_ERROR): New constants.
+	(nomoreargs, null, toarith, nextarg): Return bool, not int.
+	(syntax_error): New function, exiting with status 2.  Use it
+	insteading of printing "syntax error" ourselves.
+	(main): Initialize exit_failure to EXPR_ERROR.
+	Exit with EXPR_INVALID on syntax error (too few arguments).
+	(nextarg): Use strcmp, not strcoll; strcoll might return
+	an undesirable 0, or might fail.
+	(docolon, eval4, eval3): Exit with status 3 on invalid argument type
+	or other such error.
+	(eval2): Report an error if strcoll fails in a string comparison.
+	* src/sort.c: Include "exitfail.h".
+	(main): Set exit_failure, not xalloc_exit_failure and
+	xmemcoll_exit_failure.
+	* tests/expr/basic: Invalid value exits with status 3, not 2.
+
+2003-07-16  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* configure.ac (AC_INIT): Use 5.0.90 as the version, rather than 5.0.2,
+	per GNU maintainer guidelines.  The next non-beta release will be 5.1.
+
+	This script would have caught at least two recent bugs:
+	those in [ and kill.
+	* tests/help-version: Revive this script.
+	It wasn't doing anything useful, since $all_programs wasn't being
+	defined by the invoking Makefile.am.
+	Reflect that nohup is no longer a script, so don't exclude it.
+	Add framework to handle the programs added since it was last run:
+	kill, stat, unlink, [, link, readlink.
+	Fix path-related problems deriving from the move of this script
+	from src/ to its present location.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (all_programs): Define.
+	(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Use it.
+
+	* src/kill.c (main): Fix bug introduced on 2003-05-10 (for 5.0.1)
+	whereby kill would always attempt to operate on argv[0] and fail.
+
+	* src/test.c (integer_expected_error): Improve diagnostic -- now,
+	it also matches the one from bash's builtin test.
+	(binary_operator): Add \n at end of diagnostic.
+
+	* tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Remove setuidgid-related code.  Move it to ...
+	* tests/priv-check: Move setuidgid-related and
+	NON_ROOT_USERNAME-checking code to this file.
+
+	* README: Update section on testing as `root'.
+	Suggestion from Paul Jarc.
+
+	* src/test.c (AUTHORS): Replace 3-letter usernames with the actual
+	names of authors that I just found in bash's builtins/test.def.
+
+	Running `[' with no arguments would evoke a segfault.
+	* src/test.c (main) [LBRACKET]: Move initialization of argv to
+	precede potential use via test_syntax_error.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Rename from `INCLUDES', to avoid
+	warning from automake -Wall.
+
+2003-07-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 5.0.1.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (%.asc): Remove target first, so gpg doesn't
+	prompt us about it.
+
+	* announce-gen (print_changelog_deltas): Relax tests for matching
+	version-number line in NEWS.
+	Change the .sig suffix to .asc here, too.
+
+2003-07-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (%.asc): Renamed from %.sig.
+	Generate and use ascii-armored signatures.
+	Use gpg's -o option.
+
+2003-07-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/nohup.c (NOHUP_FAILURE, NOHUP_FOUND_BUT_CANNOT_INVOKE): Define.
+	(main): Use them.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (syntax-check): Move each individual check into
+	its own target.
+	(syntax-check-rules): This is the list of syntax-check targets.
+	(sc_unmarked_diagnostics, sc_cast_of_argument_to_free):
+	(sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value, sc_space_tab):
+	(sc_error_exit_success, sc_xalloc_h_in_src):  New targets.
+
+2003-07-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* configure.ac: Remove uses of OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS and last
+	traces of the nohup script.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): Remove use of just-removed
+	$(OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS).
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (localedir.h): Put the `2>&1' after the redirect
+	target, not before the `>'.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_dir): Give a diagnostic upon failed save_cwd,
+	now that that function no longer calls `error'.
+
+	* src/df.c (find_mount_point): Emit a diagnostic for each
+	failed syscall, rather than relying on caller to do that.
+	The caller couldn't do a good job, anyhow -- too many different
+	ways to fail (each with a different referent).
+	Give a diagnostic upon failed save_cwd, now that that function
+	no longer calls `error'.
+	(show_point): Don't diagnose find_mount_point's errors, now that
+	it handles them itself.
+
+	* src/df.c (find_mount_point): Don't let free clobber errno upon
+	failed chdir.
+
+	* src/sys2.h: Remove alloca-related block.
+	* src/system.h: Include <alloca.h> here, instead.
+
+	It appears that the `#pragma alloca' included via "system.h" is
+	adequate, since join.c uses alloca, yet lacked an in-file #pragma.
+	* src/copy.c, src/cp.c, src/df.c, src/install.c, src/ln.c:
+	* src/ls.c, src/mv.c, src/remove.c: Remove `#pragma alloca'.
+
+	* src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Do not restore any special
+	permission bits (e.g., set-user-ID, set-group-ID) that are reset
+	by chown(2) on some systems.  Suggestion and insistence :-) from
+	Michael Stone.
+
+	* tests/input-tty: Also check `test -t 1'.
+	This is necessary on linux-2.4.21.  Otherwise, the stty/basic-1
+	test would block when run in the background.
+
+2003-07-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/sample-test: Also fail if cat-to-create-expected-output
+	fails.  Otherwise, if both `exp' and `out' were to end up empty
+	because of e.g., a full disk, they would mistakenly compare equal.
+
+	* src/nohup.c: New file.  Rewrite of nohup.sh in C.
+	This solves a portability problem: on at least Solaris systems,
+	when nohup.sh used the vendor /bin/sh, it would exit with status
+	of `1' rather than the required 126 or 127 upon failure to exec
+	the specified program.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_SCRIPTS): Remove definition.
+	(bin_PROGRAMS): Add nohup.
+	(EXTRA_DIST): Remove nohup.sh.
+	(all_programs): Remove use of $(EXTRA_SCRIPTS).
+	* src/nohup.sh: Remove file.
+	* man/Makefile.am (nohup.1): Depend on nohup.c, rather than nohup.sh.
+
+	* tests/misc/nohup: Tests for the above.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add nohup.
+
+	* src/head.c (diagnose_copy_fd_failure): New function, renamed from
+	the macro, COPY_FD_DIAGNOSE.
+	(diagnose_copy_fd_failure): Enclose diagnostic in _(...).
+	(head_file): Likewise.
+
+	* src/date.c: Include "quote.h".
+	(batch_convert): Use the quote function rather than using literal `...'
+	in a diagnostic.
+
+	* src/setuidgid.c (main): Enclose diagnostic in _(...).
+	* src/fmt.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/mknod.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/tac.c (tac_seekable): Likewise.
+	* src/yes.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/od.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/install.c (change_attributes): Likewise.
+
+2003-07-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/head.c (usage): Use 1024*1024 in place of 1048576.
+	* src/tail.c (usage): Likewise.
+
+	* tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Now that we have setuidgid, use it in
+	place of the kludge in this test.  Suggestion from Paul Jarc.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (noinst_PROGRAMS): Define to setuidgid.
+	* src/setuidgid.c: New program, solely for testing (not installed).
+
+	* src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Don't leak file descriptors
+	when dereferencing symlinks.
+
+2003-07-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/slash: New file/test for today's lib/ftw.c fix.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add slash
+
+	* src/tail.c (xlseek): Avoid warning about ``return without value
+	from function returning non-void''.
+
+2003-07-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* man/help2man: Update to version 1.29.
+
+	* man/help2man: Add END handler to close STDOUT and check for errors.
+
+2003-06-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Add support for a "[" that conforms to the GNU coding standards,
+	i.e., that does not depend on its name.
+	* src/lbracket.c: New file.
+	* README: Add "[".
+	* man/Makefile.am (programs): Ignore "[", since it doesn't have
+	a separate man page.
+	* src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add "[".
+	(__SOURCES): New var.
+	* src/test.c (LBRACKET): Define to 0 if not defined.
+	(main): Use LBRACKET rather than argv[0].
+
+	* src/test.c (one_argument): Do not check for -t if POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+	Reported by Paul Jarc and Dan Jacobson.
+
+	* src/test.c (main): Do not recognize --help or --version if
+	POSIXLY_CORRECT, when invoked as "test".  Handle "[ ]" correctly.
+	Do not bother testing that margv[margc] is non-null.
+
+2003-07-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/who.c (print_line): Rewrite to use asprintf, in order to be
+	able to avoid emitting trailing spaces.  Reported by Dan Jacobson.
+
+	* tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Add tests of head's new --lines=-N
+	option, and perform the +1600 invocations of head IFF the envvar
+	RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS is set.
+
+2003-07-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/cp.c (do_copy): Give a better diagnostic when failing due
+	to nonexistent destination directory.  Reported by Dmitry Rutsky.
+	See http://bugs.debian.org/199730 for details.
+
+2003-06-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	split's --verbose option did nothing [broken in 4.5.10 and 5.0]
+	* src/split.c (longopts): Use `1', not `0' as the value for
+	for &verbose.  Reported by Keith Thompson.
+
+	Test for the above fix.
+	* tests/misc/split-a: Also use --verbose and compare stderr
+	output with what we'd expect.
+
+2003-06-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]:
+	Use `error_t' (rather than int) as type for local `err'.
+	From Alfred M. Szmidt.
+
+2003-06-19  Marcus Brinkmann  <marcus@gnu.org>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]:
+	Fix author preservation code.
+
+2003-06-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ln.c (ENABLE_HARD_LINK_TO_SYMLINK_WARNING): Define to 0.
+	(do_link): Don't warn about hard link to symlink.
+
+2003-06-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/cut.c: Include "getdelim2.h", not "getstr.h".
+	Reflect renaming: getstr -> getdelim2.
+
+	* src/comm.c, src/join.c, src/nl.c, src/uniq.c: Reflect renaming:
+	readline -> readlinebuffer.
+
+2003-06-09  John David Anglin  <dave.anglin@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca>
+
+	* src/readlink.c: Include <sys/types.h> before system.h (because
+	the latter includes <sys/stat.h>).  Required on Ultrix 4.3.
+
+2003-06-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/system.h (initialize_main): Define.
+	Use it in every `main'.  Applied via this:
+	p='initialize_main (&argc, &argv);'
+	perl -ni -e '/program_name.=.argv.0/ and print "  '"$p"'\n"; print' \
+	  $(grep -l program_name.=.argv.0 *.c)
+	test.c uses margc/margv, so I made the change manually for that file.
+	Based on a patch from Bernard Giroud.
+
+2003-06-09  John David Anglin  <dave.anglin@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca>
+
+	Fix for build failure on Ultrix 4.3.
+	* src/stat.c: Include sys/statvfs.h in preference to sys/vfs.h.
+	Include sys/param.h and sys/mount.h on ultrix.
+
+2003-06-16  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/touch.c (O_NDELAY, O_NONBLOCK, O_NOCTTY, EISDIR): Remove
+	definitions.
+	* src/system.h (O_NDELAY, O_NONBLOCK, O_NOCTTY, EISDIR): Define
+	them here instead, but with one change: define EISDIR to -1, not 0.
+
+	* src/cat.c (cat): Remove `#ifndef ENOSYS', now that it's
+	guaranteed to be defined.
+	* src/system.h (ENOSYS, ENOTSUP): Define to -1 if not defined.
+
+	* README: Mention the CVS repository.
+	Encourage addition of test cases.
+
+2003-06-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/touch.c (touch): Call close only if necessary.
+	From Bruno Haible.
+
+	* src/wc.c (usage): Correct wording: wc prints counts in the order
+	`newline, word, byte'.  Reported by Keith M. Briggs.
+	* man/wc.x: Fix it here, too.  And change `lines' to `newlines'.
+
+2003-06-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/date/Test.pm: Add a test for the new format, e.g., May-23-2003.
+
+2003-06-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (syntax-check): Add commented-out (over-aggressive)
+	rule.
+
+2003-06-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/extract-magic (main): Avoid newer 3-arg form of open,
+	so this script works also with e.g., perl5.005_03.
+	Patch by John David Anglin.
+
+2003-06-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/system.h: Include <stdbool.h> unconditionally.
+
+2003-06-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (check-programs-vs-x): Rename target
+	from check-programs-vs-1.  Adjust rule to check for the
+	primary (.x) file, not the generated one (.1).
+
+2003-06-03  Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu>
+
+	* man/kill.x: New file.
+	* man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add kill.1.
+	(kill.1): New rule.
+
+2003-06-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Ensure that the .x file for a new program is never forgotten again.
+	* man/Makefile.am (programs): Define.
+	(check-programs-vs-1): New phony target.
+	(check-local): Depend on it.
+
+2003-06-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Avoid unnecessary copying of environment.
+	* src/env.c (main): Rather than clearing the environment and --
+	unless told to ignore environment -- copying all settings from
+	the saved, original environment, clear the environment only when
+	that is requested.  Suggested by Jens Elkner.
+
+2003-06-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/system.h: Always include <string.h>, since we assume C89.
+	Include <limits.h> without checking for HAVE_LIMITS_H.
+
+	* src/test.c [!TEST_STANDALONE]: Remove #if-0'd block.
+	(STREQ, S_IXUGO): Remove redundant (in system.h) definitions.
+
+2003-06-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Avoid a race condition in `tail -f' described by Ken Raeburn in
+	http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-textutils/2003-05/msg00007.html
+	* src/tail.c (file_lines): Add new parameter, *read_pos, and set it.
+	(pipe_lines, pipe_bytes, start_bytes, start_lines): Likewise.
+	(tail_bytes, tail_lines, tail): Likewise.
+	(tail_file): Use the new `read_pos' value as the size,
+	rather than stats.st_size from the fstat call.
+
+2003-05-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/extract-magic: Allow expansion of `$file' in the here-
+	document corresponding to the comment at the top of fs.h.
+
+2003-05-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/stat.c: Fix portability problem on FreeBSD5.0: don't include
+	<sys/statvfs.h> on systems without HAVE_STRUCT_STATVFS_F_BASETYPE.
+	Use #if/#elif/... cascade so we get only one set of include files.
+	Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+
+2003-05-24  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/md5sum.c (split_3): Accept the BSD format only when in MD5 mode.
+	* tests/sha1sum/basic-1: Make sure `sha1sum --check' doesn't
+	accept the BSD format.
+
+2003-03-28  Joe Orton  <jorton@redhat.com>
+
+	* src/md5sum.c (bsd_split_3): New function.
+	(split_3): Detect checksums from BSD 'md5' command and handle them
+	using bsd_split_3.
+
+	* tests/md5sum/basic-1: New tests for --check exit status, and for
+	BSD-style checksum files.
+
+2003-05-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/head.c (elide_tail_lines_pipe): Fix a thinko.
+	This sort of thing is why it'd be *Really Good* to factor
+	out the common code used here and in tail.c.
+
+2003-05-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/head.c (usage): Document new feature: --bytes=-N and --lines=-N.
+
+	* tests/du/slink: Skip this test if `.' is on an XFS file system.
+
+	* tests/du/fd-leak: New file.  Test for the bug in du that
+	was fixed by the 2003-05-12 change to lib/ftw.c.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fd-leak.
+
+	* src/head.c (AUTHORS): Enclose string in N_(...), now that it
+	includes a translatable word, `and'.
+
+	* src/dd.c (usage): Don't use `,' as the thousands separator
+	in e.g. 1,000,000 and 1,048,576.  Instead, do this:
+	`SIZE may be ..., MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024 and so on...'
+	* src/df.c (usage): Likewise.
+	* src/du.c (usage): Likewise.

+	Fix uniq to conform to POSIX, which requires that "uniq -d -u"
+	must output nothing.  Problem reported by Josh Hyman.
+
+	* src/uniq.c (enum output_mode, mode): Remove, replacing with:
+	(output_unique, output_first_repeated, output_later_repeated):
+	New vars.  All uses of "mode" changed to use these variables,
+	which are not mutually exclusive as "mode" was.
+	(writeline): New arg "match", used to control whether to
+	obey output_first_repeated or output_later_repeated.
+	All callers changed.
+	(check_file, main): Adjust to above changes.
+
+	* tests/uniq/Test.pm: Test that 'uniq -d -u' outputs nothing.
+
+2003-05-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/rm/rm3: Use tr's \n notation rather than \012.
+	This package can afford to do that, since its tests are guaranteed use
+	GNU tr, which has accepted the more modern notation for 10 years.

+
+	* Makefile.maint (syntax-check): Check for `error (EXIT_SUCCESS,'.
+
+	* src/readlink.c (main): Set program_name before first use.
+	Remove that (redundant) first use.
+	Don't exit successfully just because --verbose was specified.
+	Pass 0, not EXIT_SUCCESS, as first argument to error; when that
+	parameter is 0, error does not exit.
+
+	* src/uname.c (main): When failing due to too many arguments, also say
+	that, rather than just "Try `uname --help' for more information.".
+	* src/comm.c (main): Likewise, but for too few arguments.
+	* src/logname.c: Include error.h.

+
+2003-05-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/sort.c (main): Don't overrun array bound if argc is 0.
+	That would happen when invoked via: execl ("/usr/bin/sort", NULL);

+
+2003-05-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Implement support so that `head --lines=-N' works on seekable files.

+
+2003-05-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/head/Test.pm: Remove tests of --bytes=-N; using that framework
+	caused the addition of thousands of small files to the tar archive.
+	* tests/misc/head-elide-tail: New file.  Add them here instead.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add head-elide-tail.
+
+2003-05-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/remove.c (HAVE_WORKING_READDIR): Define to 0 if not defined.
+	(IF_READDIR_NEEDS_REWINDDIR): Remove.
+	(remove_cwd_entries): Rewrite to avoid IF_READDIR_NEEDS_REWINDDIR,
+	which was a bit weird because it couldn't be emulated by a function.
+
+2003-05-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Extend head to accept --lines=-N (--bytes=-N) and to print all
+	but the N lines (bytes) at the end of the file.
+	* src/head.c: Include full-write.h, full-read.h, inttostr.h, quote.h.
+	Use quote() in diagnostics, rather than literal `' marks.
+	(copy_fd, elide_tail_bytes_pipe, elide_tail_bytes_file):
+	New functions.
+	(elide_tail_lines_pipe, elide_tail_lines_file): New functions.
+	(head_file): Reorganize so as to call head from only one place.
+	(main): Likewise, for head_file.
+	Handle new, undocumented option, --presume-input-pipe.
+	Handle negative line and byte counts.
+	* tests/head/Test.pm: Add lots of tests to exercise --bytes=-N.
+
+	* tests/du/8gb: Skip test if the file system of `.' doesn't support
+	sparse files -- otherwise it'd create a file of size 8GB.
+
+2003-05-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/fmt.c (usage): Don't mention obsolescent -WIDTH option.
+	Instead explain about `-' and standard input.
+	(main): Give a proper diagnostic for e.g., `fmt -c -72'.
+	Reported by Keith Thompson.
+	* tests/fmt/basic: Add test for the above fix.
+
+	* src/fmt.c: Include "quote.h".
+	Use quote() in diagnostics, rather than literal `' marks.
+	(main): Exit nonzero when unable to open an input file.
+	* tests/fmt/basic: Add test for the above fix.
+
+	* src/fmt.c (main): Diagnose invalid suffix on obsolescent width
+	specifications like `-72x'.
+	* tests/fmt/basic: Add test for the above fix.
+
+	Work around nasty readdir bug on Darwin6.5.
+	* src/remove.c (IF_READDIR_NEEDS_REWINDDIR): Define.
+	[! HAVE_WORKING_READDIR] (remove_cwd_entries): If readdir has just
+	returned NULL and there has been at least one successful unlink or
+	rmdir call since the opendir or previous rewinddir, then call
+	rewinddir and reiterate the loop.
+
+	Factor out common code.
+	* src/remove.c (readdir_ignoring_dotdirs): New function.
+	(is_empty_dir): Use it here.
+	(remove_cwd_entries): Use it here.
+
+2003-05-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/rm/r-3: Create 500 rather than just 300 files.
+	There's a bug in Darwin6.5's readdir that shows up only with
+	338 or more files.
+	Fix a bug in this test: `cd $pwd' (not to `..'), now that $tmp
+	has two components.
+
+	* src/tail.c:
+	Change type of n_units, n_bytes, n_lines to be `uintmax_t'.
+	(dump_remainder): Move two declarations `down' into the scope
+	where they are used.
+	(xlseek): Return the resulting offset.
+	(file_lines): Rename parameter, file_length, to end_pos.
+	(pipe_lines): Don't coerce safe_read return value to `int'.
+	Adapt tests accordingly.
+	(pipe_bytes) [struct charbuffer] (nbytes): Change type from `int'
+	to `unsigned int'.
+	Change type of `total_bytes' from `int' to `size_t',
+	since the former wouldn't always be wide enough.
+	Don't coerce safe_read return value to `int',
+	and adapt tests accordingly.
+	Now that testing for a read error no longer involves
+	using `tmp', handle that case *after* freeing `tmp'.
+	(start_bytes): Clean up.
+	(tail_bytes): Now that `n_bytes' may be larger than
+	OFF_T_MAX, test for that condition and, if it's true, don't
+	use lseek optimizations.
+	(parse_options): Don't fail just because N_UNITS is larger than
+	the maximum size of a file -- tail may be applied to an input
+	stream (e.g., a pipe) with more data than that.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (syntax-check): Rename from alloc-check.
+	Also check for SPACE-TAB sequences.
+	Also check for malloc/calloc/realloc casts.
+
+2003-05-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/tail.c (start_lines): Rewrite to use memchr.  Clean up.
+
+2003-04-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/tty-eof: Send two tokens, not just one, so we don't
+	make the now-more-picky tsort fail.
+
+2003-04-24  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/tsort.c (tsort): Remove unnecessary test of have_read_stdin.
+	(main): Minor syntactic clean-up.
+
+	* src/tsort.c (tsort): Fail if the input contains an odd number of
+	tokens.  Reported by junkio@cox.net.
+
+	* tests/tsort/basic-1: Test for the above fix.
+
+2003-04-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/printf: Add tests for the printf fixes below.
+
+	* Makefile.cfg (cvs_files): Add $(srcdir)/config/depcomp to the list.
+
+2003-04-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix printf POSIX compatibility bug reported by Ben Harris in
+	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2003-04/msg00070.html>.
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (printf invocation): It's \NNN in the format,
+	\0NNN in the %b operand.
+	* src/printf.c (usage): Likewise.
+	(print_esc): New arg OCTAL0 to specify whether \0NNN or \NNN
+	is desired.  All uses changed.  Behave like Bash printf if %b
+	operand uses \NNN where the initial N is not 0.
+
+2003-04-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/stty.c: Remove uses of PROTOTYPE macro.
+
+2003-04-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint: Remove (or replace-with-TAB(s) to retain alignment)
+	each sequence of spaces before a TAB character.
+
+2003-04-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Don't closedir (NULL).
+
+2003-04-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Giving nl an invalid STYLE argument (in --header-numbering=STYLE (-h),
+	--body-numbering=STYLE (-b), or --footer-numbering=STYLE (-f)) or
+	FORMAT (--number-format=FORMAT (-n)) would not give a useful diagnostic.
+	* src/nl.c (main): Fix those problems and remove literal quote marks
+	(e.g., "`%s'") from format string; instead use "%s" in each format
+	string and `quote (optarg)' as the corresponding argument.
+	Also, diagnose all invalid command line options before failing.
+
+	* src/nl.c (proc_text): Fix a bug that would make nl output extra
+	newlines in some cases.  Details here: http://bugs.debian.org/177256.
+	This bug was introduced on 2001-11-10 for textutils-2.0.17.
+	* tests/misc/nl: Add test for the above-fixed bug.
+
+	* tests/misc/readlink: New file.  Test the --canonicalize option.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add readlink.
+
+2003-04-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Clean up.
+	* src/chown.c, src/cp.c, src/dircolors.hin, src/du.c, src/ln.c:
+	* src/mkfifo.c, src/ptx.c, src/spline.c, src/stty.c, src/tail.c:
+	* src/test.c, src/unexpand.c: Remove (or replace-with-TAB(s) to
+	retain alignment) each sequence of spaces before a TAB character.
+
+	* src/ls.c: Include <stdlib.h> unconditionally.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (xalloc-check): Rename from header-check.
+
+	* src/yes.c: Include error.h after system.h, not before.
+
+	Clean up.
+	* src/copy.c, src/cp-hash.c, src/cp.c, src/csplit.c, src/cut.c:
+	* src/date.c, src/df.c, src/du.c, src/expand.c, src/expr.c, src/id.c:

+	* src/tr.c: * src/unexpand.c, src/users.c:
+	Remove anachronistic casts of xmalloc, xrealloc, and xcalloc
+	return values and of xrealloc's first argument.
+	Fix the former with this:
+	perl -pi -e 's/\([^(]*?\*\) *(x(m|c|re)alloc)\b/$1/'
+
+2003-04-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/stty.c (wrapf): Declare with format attribute.
+
+	The S_MAGIC_... names shouldn't be maintained in two places (prior
+	to this change, one would have to keep stat.c and fs.h in sync).
+	This change makes it so those names and the corresponding
+	hexadecimal constants all reside in stat.c.  fs.h is now generated.
+	* src/Makefile.am (fs.h): New rule to generate fs.h from stat.c.
+	(BUILT_SOURCES): Add fs.h, now that it's generated.
+	(EXTRA_DIST): Add extract-magic.
+	* src/extract-magic: New script to extract fs.h definitions from stat.c.
+	* src/stat.c (human_fstype) [__linux__]: Append each hex constant from
+	fs.h in a comment after the corresponding `case S_MAGIC_...:' statement.
+
+	* tests/tail-2/big-4gb: Skip this test (don't fail) if creating a
+	file with nominal length > 4GB fails.  Reported by Michael Deutschmann.
+
+	* man/unexpand.x: Add `SEE ALSO' reference to expand.
+	* man/expand.x: Add `SEE ALSO' reference to unexpand.
+	Suggestion from Dan Jacobson.
+
+2003-04-10  Maciej W. Rozycki  <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl>
+
+	* src/fs.h (S_MAGIC_DEVPTS): New magic for Linux's devpts.
+	* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Handle Linux's devpts.
+
+2003-04-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/split.c (line_bytes_split): Arg is of type size_t, since
+	that's all that is supported for now.
+	(main): Check for overflow in obsolescent line count option.
+
+2003-04-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/split-fail: Add a new test for the above fix.
+
+	* src/split.c (bytes_split): Use size_t temporary (rather than
+	uintmax_t original) in remaining computations.  From Paul Eggert.
+
+	Handle command line option arguments larger than 2^31.
+	This allows e.g., splitting into files of size 2GB and larger,
+	and running split --lines=N with N=2^31 or more.
+	But for --line-bytes=N, the restriction that N <= SIZE_MAX
+	remains (for now), due to the way it is implemented.
+
+	* src/split.c: Include "inttostr.h".
+	(bytes_split, lines_split, line_bytes_split, main):
+	Use uintmax_t, not size_t, for file sizes.
+	(main): Give a better diagnostic for option arguments == 0.
+	Use umaxtostr to print file sizes.
+	Reported by Luke Hassell.
+
+2003-04-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/rm.c (usage): Mention that --directory (-d) works only
+	on some systems.  Suggestion from Samuel Tardieu.
+
+	* tests/basename/basic: Run $PERL to see if it is available,
+	rather than testing its value.
+	* tests/sum/sysv, tests/tsort/basic-1, tests/unexpand/basic-1:

+
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add split-fail.
+	* tests/misc/split-fail: New file.
+
+	* src/split.c: Rename local variables: nchars -> n_bytes.
+	(lines_split): Rename local, nlines -> n_lines.
+	(main): Rename local variable: s/accum/n_units/.
+	(main): Use STDIN_FILENO, not literal `0'.
+
+2003-04-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+

+
+2003-04-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.am (nearly all of them):
+	Use $(VAR) rather than @VAR@, now that we can rely on automake to
+	emit a definition for each substituted variable.
+	* tests/Makefile.am.in: Likewise.
+
+	* tests/rm/rm5: Add a comment explaining why this test fails when
+	using Tru64's broken sed.
+	* tests/rm/rm3: Likewise.
+
+	Make `kill -t' output signal descriptions (not `?') on Tru64.
+	* src/kill.c (sys_siglist): Also check for __sys_siglist.
+	Patch by Tony Leneis.
+	* configure.ac: Also check for declaration of __sys_siglist.
+	Required for Tru64 4.0D, 4.0F, and 5.1.
+	Reported by Tony Leneis.
+
+2003-04-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (PERL): Remove unnecessary definition.
+
+	Because of inappropriate (but POSIX-mandated) behavior of rename,
+	`mv a b' would not remove `a' in some unusual cases.  Work around
+	this by unlinking `a' when necessary.
+
+	* src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Add an output parameter.
+	Set it in the offending case.
+	(copy_internal): When necessary, unlink SRC_PATH and inform caller.
+	Reported by Ed Avis.
+	* tests/mv/hard-4: New test for the above.
+	* tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-4.
+
+	Clean up rules for automatically generated sources:
+	* src/Makefile.am (dircolors.h, wheel-size.h, wheel.h, false.c):
+	Make each generated file be read-only.
+	Add each file name to BUILT_SOURCES separately.
+	(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Set to $(BUILT_SOURCES).
+
+	Put LOCALEDIR macro definition in new file: localedir.h.
+	* src/Makefile.am (DEFS): Remove definition.
+	(localedir.h): New rule.
+	(BUILT_SOURCES, DISTCLEANFILES): Add localedir.h.
+	* src/system.h: Include "localedir.h".
+

+
+	* tests/du/basic: Use seq, not `yes' to generate 4KB of data.
+	Otherwise, on systems (DJGPP) that emulate pipes using files,
+	this test would never complete, waiting for `yes' to terminate.
+	* tests/du/slink: As above, use seq, not `yes' to generate link target.

+2003-03-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix buffer overrun problem reported by TAKAI Kousuke, along
+	with some other POSIX incompatibilities.
+
+	* src/printf.c (print_esc): Do not treat \x specially if
+	POSIXLY_CORRECT.  Avoid buffer overrun if the format ends
+	in backslash.  Treat incomplete escape sequences as strings
+	of characters, as POSIX requires.
+	(print_formatted): Allow multiple flags.  Avoid buffer overrun

+2003-03-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/stat.c: Don't include <sys/sysmacros.h>.
+	That is already done via system.h.  Otherwise, the multiple
+	inclusion would evoke redefinition warnings from Cray's /bin/cc,
+	aka Cray Standard C Version 4.0.3  (057126) Mar 22 2003  22:02:28.
+	(human_fstype): Factor some directives `up', out of this function.
+	Cast away `const' to avoid error from Cray's /bin/cc.
+
+2003-03-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* announce-gen (print_changelog_deltas): Ensure that a newline
+	precedes each row of `*'s.
+
+2003-03-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 4.5.11.
+
+	* src/seq.c (valid_format): Also accept ` ' and `'' as valid
+	format flag characters.
+	Do not require that a field width be specified.
+	Do not fail when given a field width of `0'.
+	Reported by Dan Jacobson.
+	* tests/seq/basic: Add new tests for the above-fixed bug.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (all-local): Append $(EXEEXT) to use of `su'
+	(install-root): Likewise.
+	(install-exec-local): Likewise.
+	Based on a patch from Richard Dawe.
+
+2003-03-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Use $(LN_S) instead of 'ln -s',
+	because the DJGPP 2.03 port of 'ln -s' doesn't work.
+	Include $(EXEEXT) in program names.
+	Since $(LN_S) may degenerate to `cp -p', be careful
+	to invoke it from the destination directory.
+	Mostly from Richard Dawe.
+	* configure.ac: Use AC_PROG_LN_S.
+
+	* tests/mv/part-symlink: Unset CDPATH.  Otherwise, having the
+	CDPATH shell variable set could cause this test to fail.
+	Reported by Karl Berry.
+
+2003-03-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/fmt.c [struct Word] (paren, period, punct, final): Change the
+	type of each member from bool <MEMBER>:1 to unsigned int <MEMBER>:1.
+	AIX 5.1's xlc could not compile the former.
+	Patch by Petter Reinholdtsen.  Also reported by Mike Jetzer.
+
+2003-03-17  Richard Dawe  <rich@phekda.freeserve.co.uk>
+
+	* configure.ac: Include $(EXEEXT) in OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS'
+	program names, since automake only adds $(EXEEXT) to programs
+	in its *_PROGRAMS.
+
+2003-03-16  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (rm): Put two local variables in static storage,
+	so they can't be clobbered by the potential longjmp.
+
+2003-03-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.cfg (gnu_rel_host): Fix code to match the comment
+	so that a version number with a two-digit component can still count
+	as an alpha release.  Reported by Richard A Downing.
+	(gnu_rel_host): Define in terms of $(RELEASE_TYPE) instead.
+
+2003-03-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ansi2knr.c: Remove no-longer-used file.
+	* src/ansi2knr.1: Likewise.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (prev_version_file): Don't use ?= for this particular
+	assignment, since it causes trouble with old versions of GNU make
+	(e.g. 3.76.1).  The other uses of `?=' are inoffensive.  Details here.
+	http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2003-03/msg00028.html
+	Patch from Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
+
+	* Use patched automake-1.7.3.  Regenerate Makefile.in files in
+	subdirectories so that each includes a definition of ACLOCAL_M4.
+
+	* announce-gen (main): Label the compressed source URLs.
+
+	* Version 4.5.10.
+
+	* tests/du/slink: Relax the test for the `local'ness of a file system,
+	so that now it works also for tmpfs.
+
+	* tests/du/hard-link: Transform output from first du, so that this
+	test doesn't fail on file systems like tmpfs that order directory
+	entries differently.
+
+2003-03-13  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/8gb: Work around what appears to be an NFS failure that
+	would make this test fail on some systems.
+
+2003-03-11  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/basic: Make the test file exactly 4k bytes long.
+
+	* src/split.c (longopts): Don't hard-code `2' here.
+	Instead, just specify `&verbose', and ...
+	(main): ... remove the `case 2:' block for --verbose.
+
+	* tests/du/basic: Make the test file larger than 64 bytes, so that
+	we don't immediately disqualify file systems (e.g., NetApp) on which
+	smaller files take up zero disk blocks.  Reported by Vin Shelton.
+
+2003-03-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Don't segfault for a negative field width or precision in format string.
+	Note that this is just a stopgap fix.  The longer term solution may
+	involve adapting bash's builtins/printf.def.
+
+	* src/printf.c: (UNSPECIFIED): Define.
+	(print_direc): Use the special value, UNSPECIFIED, to indicate
+	that field_width or precision has not been specified.
+	(print_formatted): Fail if field_width or precision is the
+	special value, UNSPECIFIED.
+	Reported by Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
+
+	* src/sys2.h (INT_MIN): Define, if necessary.
+	* tests/misc/printf: Add a test for the above-fixed bug.
+
+2003-03-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (AD_stack_pop): Cast sizeof... to int before
+	changing its sign.  This avoids a warning from gcc on 64-bit systems.
+	Reported by Bob Proulx.
+	(pop_dir): Reverse order of sign change and cast, to be consistent
+	with the above.
+
+2003-03-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Check for POSIXLY_CORRECT not as a
+	shell variable, but only in the environment.  With /bin/sh->bash, the
+	shell variable is set to `y', and that would cause a spurious warning.
+	Reported by Bob Proulx.
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Remove touch/fifo.
+	It doesn't appear to have to be run as root.
+
+	* tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Rather than simply using the first non-root
+	user name, make sure that the selected user name has a usable shell.
+	Reported by Paul Jarc.
+
+	Before, when using shred on a device, one had to specify --exact,
+	or be careful to choose a size that would not be rounded up and
+	exceed the maximum value;  that could result in a failure of
+	the final write.
+	* src/shred.c (do_wipefd): --exact is now the default for non-regular
+	files.  Suggestion from Ben Elliston.
+	(usage): Say it.
+
+	* tests/misc/tty-eof: Require at least version 1.11 of Expect.pm.
+	Old versions of Expect.pm (e.g., 1.07) lack the log_user function.
+	Patch by Bob Proulx.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (check-misc): Check for use of `defined' in
+	#define directives.
+	Change to $(srcdir) before running grep.
+
+	* src/sleep.c: Remove now-unused #include and #define directives.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): If a file's size is not being counted
+	e.g., because it's a hard link to a file we've already counted,
+	then don't print a line for it.
+
+	* tests/du/hard-link: New test for the above-fixed bug.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-link.
+
+	`du -S' didn't work
+	* src/du.c: Revert most of the `reorganization' change of 2003-02-20,
+	and make the two-array approach work.
+
+	* tests/du/basic: Correct/add tests for the above fix.
+	Set LC_ALL, etc., now that we use sort.
+	Check the block/size of a small file, too.
+	Correct expected results for simple dir1/dir2/file case.
+	Add another test of du -S.
+
+2003-03-07  John David Anglin  <dave.anglin@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca>
+
+	Avoid build failure with gcc on hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20 (see GCC PR
+	middle-end/9986).  As one of GCC's optimizations, it transforms a
+	fputs_unlocked call to a fputc_unlocked call when the string is
+	one character long.  However, hpux doesn't have fputc_unlocked.
+
+	* expr.c (usage): Use putchar, not fputs, to output a single character.
+	* ls.c (dired_dump_obstack): Likewise.
+	* ptx.c (output_one_tex_line, output_one_dumb_line): Likewise.
+	* stat.c (print_it): Likewise.
+
+2003-03-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/cp.c: Remove everything associated with mmap-stack.c.
+	This reverts the two changes of 2003-02-21.
+	* src/du.c: Remove everything associated with mmap-stack.c.
+	This reverts the change of 2003-02-19.
+
+2003-03-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/cp/same-file: Unset CDPATH.  Otherwise, having the
+	CDPATH shell variable set could cause this test to fail.
+	Reported by Karl Berry.
+
+2003-03-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 4.5.9.
+
+	* src/printf.c (print_esc): Remove pointless comparison of unsigned
+	integer with zero, to avoid a warning from Intel's ecc.
+	Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Sizes must all be of type uintmax_t.
+	Otherwise, for files or totals that are too big, numbers would
+	be truncated.  Patch mostly by Michael Stone.
+	Reported by Ingo Saitz as Debian bug #183210.
+
+	* tests/du/8gb: New test for the above-fixed bug.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add 8gb.
+
+	* src/du.c (MAX_N_DESCRIPTORS): Use 3 * UTILS_OPEN_MAX / 4
+	rather than UTILS_OPEN_MAX - 10.
+
+2003-03-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* README: Refer new feature discussion to bug-coreutils@gnu.org,
+	rather than bug-gnu-utils, now that the former is better known.
+	Suggestion from Göran Uddeborg.
+
+	* src/stat.c (usage): Capitalize consistently.
+	Reported by Göran Uddeborg.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (rel-files): Include $(signatures), so that
+	those files are also copied into $(release_archive_dir).
+
+	* src/df.c (find_mount_point): Call error here, now that restore_cwd
+	no longer does it.
+	* src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Likewise.
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Add fail-2eperm.
+
+2003-03-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Include the full filename of
+	the offending file, not just the basename.
+
+	* tests/misc/tty-eof: Set $ME properly.
+
+	* Makefile.maint (THIS_VERSION_REGEXP, PREV_VERSION_REGEXP):
+	Remove now-unused variables.
+	(tag-prev-version, prev-cvs-tag): Likewise.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries) [!ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS]: Give an
+	accurate diagnostic when failing to remove a file owned by some other
+	user.  Reported by Ivo Timmermans via Michael Stone.
+	This fixes Debian bug# 178471.
+
+	* tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fail-2eperm.
+	* tests/rm/fail-2eperm: New test, for the above-fixed bug.
+	Based on a report from Ivo Timmermans.
+
+2003-03-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal) [un_backup]: When recovering from a
+	failure to create a hard link, do not remove the entry associating
+	the source dev/ino with the destination file name.
+	* tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-3.
+	* tests/mv/hard-3: New test, for the above-fixed bug.
+	Inspired by a report from Iida Yosiaki.
+
+2003-03-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/df.c (print_header): Don't embed spaces in a separate `Type'
+	header string.  Instead, put `Filesystem' and `Type' headers in the
+	same string, so translators can use horizontal space as needed.
+	Reported by Jean Charles Delepine.
+
+2003-02-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal): When link fails because of an
+	existing destination file, unlink that file and try again.
+	Reported by Iida Yosiaki.
+
+	* tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-2.
+	* tests/mv/hard-2: New test for the above-fixed bug.
+	Based on a test case from Iida Yosiaki.
+
+2003-02-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/du/basic: Don't test du's -b option here.  Directory byte
+	counts are smaller (512 rather than 4096) on at least OSF/1 5.1
+	and IBM AIX 4.2.  Reported by Nelson Beebe.
+
+2003-02-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.maint (announcement): Now that ChangeLog entries
+	are output by announce-gen, don't do it here.
+	* announce-gen (print_changelog_deltas): New function.
+	(main): Use it.
+
+2003-02-22  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* announce-gen: New option: --release-type=TYPE
+	* Makefile.maint (beta, major): New targets.  Remove `release'.
+	Put them all together on a line.
+	Pass the release type (via RELEASE_TYPE envvar) to the MAKE
+	invocation of `announcement'.
+	(announcement): Invoke announce-gen with --release-type=$RELEASE_TYPE.
+
+	* announce-gen: New option: --news=NEWS_FILE.
+	Extract NEWS entries here, not via rules in Makefile.maint.
+	* Makefile.maint (announcement): Now that NEWS entries are
+	extracted by announce-gen, don't do it here.
+	(news-r1, news-r2): Remove now-unused definitions.
+
+2003-02-21  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 4.5.8.
+
+	Merge in changes from autoconf's version of this file.
+	* Makefile.maint (www-gnu): Define.
+	(standards.texi-url_prefix): Use $(www-gnu).
+	(make-stds.texi-url_prefix): Likewise.
+
+	* src/cp.c: Include "mmap-stack.h".
+	(main): Invoke `run' through a macro that (when possible) runs it
+	with a large, mmap'd stack.
+
+	* src/cp.c (run): New function, preparing for the above.
+	Exit from this function, not from main
+	(main): Call run.
+
+	* src/du.c: New option: --apparent-size.
+	(enum) [APPARENT_SIZE_OPTION]: New member.
+	(long_options): Add it.
+	(usage): Describe it.
+	(main): Handle it.
+	['b']: Set apparent_size.
+	David Eisner reported that the behavior of --bytes had changed.
+	Paul Eggert proposed the use of a new option, --apparent-size.
+
+	* src/du.c (apparent_size): New global.
+	(print_only_size): Reflect the fact that we're printing byte counts,
+	not ST_NBLOCKSIZE-byte-block counts.
+	(print_size): Call print_only_size rather than duplicating its code.
+	(process_file): Accumulate byte counts, rather than block counts.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Always reset size_to_propagate_to_parent
+	for --separate-dirs (-S).
+
+2003-02-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Use automake-1.7.3.  Regenerate dependent files.
+
+	* src/stat.c (print_stat): New format: %B (to print ST_NBLOCKSIZE).
+	This makes %b (number of ST_NBLOCKSIZE-byte blocks) more useful.
+	(usage) [%B]: Describe it.
+	[%b]: Refer to %B.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Reorganize the code to use only
+	one `sum' array, and change how -S works back to the way it was
+	before 2003-01-31.  Patch by Bruno Haible.
+
+	* tests/du/basic: New test.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add basic.
+
+	* tests/envvar-check: Add checks for the following:
+	BLOCK_SIZE, DU_BLOCK_SIZE, DF_BLOCK_SIZE, LS_BLOCK_SIZE.
+
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Rename phony target envvar-check to evar-check
+	so as not to conflict with the distributed file by the same name.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Set info->skip before any possible return.
+
+	Report correct usage for directories, not 0.
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Return for `file_type == FTW_DPRE'
+	_before_ recording the dev/ino of a directory.
+	Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+	Now, df always displays the device file name corresponding to the
+	listed mount point under `Filesystem'.  Before, for an unmounted
+	block- or character-special file argument, it would display the
+	command-line argument instead.
+	* src/df.c (show_disk): Return a value indicating whether
+	there was a match.  Don't try to find a mount point here.
+	(show_entry): If show_disk doesn't find a match, call show_point.
+
+2003-02-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/du.c: Include "mmap-stack.h".
+	(du_files): Add prototype with ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
+	Exit from this function, not from...
+	(main): ...here.
+	Instead, if possible, invoke du_files through a macro that
+	runs it with a large, mmap'd stack.
+
+	* src/join.c (usage): Change wording in --help output:
+	use FILENUM instead of `SIDE' and say what FILENUM means.
+	Reported by Bernhard Gabler.
+
+	* src/df.c (print_header): Rather than using a hard-coded literal
+	string of spaces matching the length of the English `...Type' header,
+	output the right number of spaces to match the selected translation.
+	Reported by Yann Dirson and Jean Charles Delepine as Debian bug 131113.
+
+	* src/split.c (bytes_split): Remove unnecessary `else' after break.
+	(lines_split): Likewise.  and correct misleading indentation.
+
+	* src/split.c: Include "full-read.h".
+	(bytes_split, lines_split, line_bytes_split): Use full_read,
+	not safe_read.   The way split was using the latter, a short read
+	could cause split to terminate before EOF.
+
+	* tests/misc/tty-eof: Test all programs that can read stdin,
+	requiring no arguments and that write to standard output.
+
+	* tests/misc/tty-eof: New file.  Renamed from ...
+	* tests/misc/cat-tty-eof: Remove file.  Rename to tty-eof.
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Reflect renaming.
+
+2003-02-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	cksum would perform an extra read after encountering EOF
+	* src/cksum.c (cksum): Exit the loop upon EOF, too.
+	Patch by Michael Bacarella.
+
+	Test for the bug fixed today in cksum, md5sum, and sha1sum.
+	* tests/misc/cat-tty-eof: Generalize, clean-up, and test for
+	cat, cksum, md5sum, and sha1sum all in the same loop.
+
+2003-02-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c: Include "euidaccess.h".
+	Remove declaration of euidaccess.
+
+2003-02-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Remove unnecessary `const'
+	in cast to avoid warning from icc.  Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
+
+2003-02-10  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/test.c: Don't include group-member.h.
+	Include euidaccess.h.
+	(eaccess): Rewrite function to set the real uid and gid temporarily
+	to the effective uid and gid, then invoke 'access', and then set the
+	real uid and gid back.  On systems that lack setreuid or setregid,
+	fall back on the kludges in euidaccess.  Before, it would not work
+	for e.g., files with ACLs, files that were marked immutable,
+	or on file systems mounted read-only.  Nelson Beebe raised the issue.
+	Paul Eggert suggested the new implementation.
+
+2003-02-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/test.c (test_stat): Remove function.  It's job is done (only
+	when necessary) by the wrapper in lib/stat.c.  Adjust all uses.
+
+2003-02-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 4.5.7.
+
+	* tests/mv/part-symlink: Don't assume that the file owner username
+	length is less than 9 in ls output: instead, omit that field
+	altogether.  Reported by, and suggested fix from, Ferdinand.
+
+	* tests/du/restore-wd: New test for just-fixed bug in ftw.c.
+	* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add restore-wd.
+
+	* src/rm.c: Correct now-invalid comment about cycle-detection.
+
+2003-02-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* NEWS: Add entries from old/*/NEWS
+	from fileutils-4.1 through 4.1.11 and
+	from sh-utils-2.0 through 2.0.15.  Suggestion from Karl Berry.
+
+	* Version 4.5.6.
+
+	* src/du.c (process_file): Don't return early for excluded files

+	Fix memory allocation arithmetic.
+
+2003-02-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	`df /dev/block-or-char-device-file--not-mounted' now reports
+	the name of the file system on which the file resides, usually `/'.
+	Before, it would leave the `Mounted on' field blank.
+	* src/df.c (show_disk): Move function to precede find_mount_point.
+	(show_disk): Add parameter: STATP.
+	If we don't find a matching device name, then resort to calling
+	find_mount_point.  Reported by Bob Proulx.
+

+	* man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Use @PATH_SEPARATOR@, not `:'.
+
+	Ensure that there are no offending uses of `:'.
+	* Makefile.maint (makefile_path_separator_check): New rule.
+	(local-check): Add it to the list.

+
+2003-01-31  Richard Dawe  <rich@phekda.freeserve.co.uk>
+
+	* tests/basename/Makefile.am: Use @PATH_SEPARATOR@ instead of
+	hard-coding the path-separator.  Also double-quote the new PATH,
+	to avoid problems when the path-separator is a semi-colon or when
+	`pwd` contains e.g. a space.

+	(print_human_type): Remove function.
+	(human_access): Rename from print_human_access.  Return a string.
+	(human_time): Rename from print_human_time.  Return a string.
+	(print_stat): Arrange so that field width and an alignment specifier
+	are honored for the %A, %F, %x, %y, and %z formats.
+	[%F]: Use file_type; this gives slightly different file type strings,
+	e.g., `directory' instead of `Directory' and `regular file' or
+	`regular empty file' instead of `Regular file'.
+	Prompted by a report from Richard Dawe that the uses of
+	S_IFSOCK and S_IFIFO in print_human_time were not portable
+	to systems using e.g., DJGPP.
+
+2003-01-31  Richard Dawe  <rich@phekda.freeserve.co.uk>
+
+	* src/stat.c (print_stat): Use S_ISLNK rather than an explicit

+
+2003-01-31  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/du.c (main): Upon processing an invalid option or an invalid
+	--exclude-from or --max-depth option argument, don't exit right away,
+	in case there are others.  Rather record the failure and exit after
+	processing other options.
+
+	* GNUmakefile (TAR_OPTIONS): Set and export, in order to make

+
+	Rewrite to perform directory traversal using nftw.

+
+2003-01-27  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ls.c (decode_switches): If `dired' is set without
+	`format == long_format', then silently reset dired.  This doesn't
+	change the behavior of ls (all prior uses of dired were protected
+	by `&& format == long_format'), and lets us...

+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_entry) [ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS
+	&& HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE]: If a file has d_type == DT_UNKNOWN
+	it may still be a directory -- or not (e.g., with FreeBSD on an
+	NFS-mounted file system), so resort to calling lstat to find out.
+	Based on a patch by Michael van Elst.
+
+	* tests/cp/same-file: Don't assume that the file owner username
+	length is less than 9 in ls output: instead, omit that field
+	altogether.  Reported by, and suggested fix from, Ferdinand.
+
+2003-01-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/date/Test.pm (wide-fmt): New test to demonstrate that

+
+2003-01-19  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>

+	New member.
+	(enum) [DEREFERENCE_COMMAND_LINE_SYMLINK_TO_DIR_OPTION]: New member.
+	(long_options): Add option --dereference-command-line-symlink-to-dir.
+	(main): Make DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_SYMLINK_TO_DIR be the default,
+	rather than DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_ARGUMENTS, when none of the
+	-d, -F, -l options is specified.
+	(decode_switches): Handle --dereference-command-line-symlink-to-dir.
+	(gobble_file): Honor DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_SYMLINK_TO_DIR.
+	Change --dereference-command-line (-H) to dereference *all*
+	command line arguments, including broken symlinks.
+
+2003-01-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Change ls -H back to the way it was yesterday, since this is
+	compatible with FreeBSD and the POSIX spec is confusing
+	and somewhat contradictory.
+
+	* src/ls.c (DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_ARGUMENTS): Change name back
+	from DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_SYMLINK_TO_DIR, updating all uses.
+	(long_options): Change the long option name back.
+	(usage): Change the usage back.
+	(gobble_file): When -H is specified, dereference a top-level
+	arg even if it points to a non-directory.
+
+2003-01-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Fall back on using lstat when required:
+	when --dereference (-L) is not specified, and
+	- when operating on a dangling symlink
+	- when operating on command-line-symlink-to-directories
+	This fixes numerous problems.  Here are examples:
+	- `ls dangling-symlink' would fail with `no such file...'
+	Now it prints `dangling-symlink'.
+	- `ls -i symlink' would mistakenly print the inode of the referent.
+	Now it prints the inode of the symlink.  Likewise for --size (-s).
+	Based on a patch from Michael Stone.
+	Reported by Deepak Goel as Debian bug #173793.
+
+	Rename ls's --dereference-command-line (-H)
+	option to   --dereference-command-line-symlink-to-dir.
+	* src/ls.c [enum Dereference_symlink]
+	(DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_SYMLINK_TO_DIR): Rename from
+	DEREF_COMMAND_LINE_ARGUMENTS.  Update all uses.
+	(long_options): Rename the long option.
+	(usage): Say that --dereference-... changes how ls treats
+	only symlinks to directories specified on the command line.

+
+	* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Fix a bug introduced in 4.5.4 that made it

+
+	* doc/coreutils.texi (Block size): Say that:
+	This affects display format as well as block size.
+	Fractional block counts are rounded up.
+	ls file size blocksize defaults to 1.
+	A block size spec preceded by ' generates thousands separators.
+	A suffix without a preceding integer generates suffixes.
+	(tail invocation): 32k -> 32 KiB.
+	(What information is listed): ls -h is now equivalent to
+	ls --block-size=human, and ls -H is now equivalent to
+	ls --block-size=si.  Displayed file size is now always affected by
+	--block-size.

+	options before the sizes.  All uses changed.  The old human_readable
+	function has been removed; use inttostr.h instead.
+	(human_options): Renamed from human_block_size, with new signature
+	that allows block sizes up to UINTMAX_MAX.  All callers changed.
+
+	* m4/prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Check for locale.h, localeconv,
+	AC_HEADER_STDBOOL.  No need to check for limits.h since it's in
+	freestanding C89.  No need to check for stdlib.h or string.h since
+	autoconf does this now.
+
+	* src/cksum.c (cksum): Use primitives from inttostr.h, not

+	block sizes.  All uses changed.
+	* src/du.c: Likewise.
+	* src/ls.c: Likewise.
+
+	* src/df.c (print_header): In the header line, prefer SI to human
+	representation if it's shorter; if neither is shorter, try to
+	intuit what the user would prefer.
+
+	* src/expr.c (inttostr): Remove; use new imaxtostr library
+	function instead.
+
+	* src/ls.c (file_output_block_size): New var, to distinguish
+	file sizes from other sizes.
+	(decode_switches): Set it.
+
+	* src/shred.c (OUTPUT_BLOCK_SIZE): remove.
+	(dopass): When printing progress, use floor for what has been done
+	so far (since we should be conservative there), and ceiling for
+	what needs to be done (since that's what other programs use).

+
+2002-10-17  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Fix a problem that could make e.g., `cat' misbehave on systems which
+	give invalid (unreasonably large) values for stat.st_blksize.
+	* src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Ensure that the result is in [1..4MB].
+	Reported by Petter Reinholdtsen.
+
+2002-10-14  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Specifying a printf conversion specifer as nl's separator string
+	could cause nl to segfault.
+	* src/nl.c (build_print_fmt): Don't include separator string

+2002-10-12  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/paste.c (paste_parallel): Declare local, `delims_saved', to be
+	of type size_t, since that's the way it's used and avoids a warning.
+
+	* src/csplit.c (struct cstring) [len]: Declare to be unsigned int,
+	since that's how it's always used and avoids a new warning from gcc.
+	(read_input): Adapt to new safe_read ABI.
+
+	* src/cut.c (cut_fields): Add a temporary size_t variable, n_bytes,
+	to avoid warnings.
+
+	* src/pinky.c (print_long_entry): fread returns size_t.
+	Declare local `bytes' accordingly, to avoid warning.
+
+	tail -c +N would perform an extra read after encountering EOF
+	[this change is analogous (bytes vs. lines) to the one of 2002-01-27]
+	* src/tail.c (start_bytes): Detect EOF, inform caller.

+	are not set (e.g., SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX).  Reported by Duncan Roe.
+
+	* tests/tail-2/big-4gb: Mark this as an expensive test; it would

+	* tests/du/slink: New test for system.h change of 2002-08-31.
+
+	In move mode, always first try to rename.  Before, upon failure to
+	rename a directory, this code would never attempt to rename any
+	other file in that directory, but would thenceforth always copy.
+	On some systems (e.g., NetApp's OnTap-6.4), renaming a directory
+	may fail with EXDEV, yet renaming files within that directory to
+	a newly-created destination directory succeeds.
+	* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove local, move_mode;

+

+
+	Fix things so `mkdir -p' can create very deep directories, e.g.,
+	mkdir -p $(perl -e 'print "a/" x 40000') now works.
+	* src/mkdir.c (main): For --parents (-p), call make_path with the
+	entire directory name, so we don't ever require that file operations
+	like stat or chmod be performed on the entire command line argument.
+	* makepath.c (make_path): Restore umask *before* creating the final
+	component.
+

+
+	* Use automake-1.6f.  Regenerate dependent files.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (PERL): Remove duplicate definition.
+
+	fmt's -s, -t, -c options didn't work properly for long lines.
+	Since get_line may end up calling put_paragraph (for long lines),
+	be sure to set global, `other_indent', before it is used there.
+
+	* src/fmt.c (set_other_indent): New function, factored out of...
+	(get_paragraph): ... here.  Call it.
+	(get_line): Call set_other_indent before calling flush_paragraph,
+	which calls fmt_paragraph, which in turn calls put_paragraph,
+	which uses other_indent.

+	Use xstrtod, now that we accept floating point values.
+	Prompted by a patch from Augey Mikus.
+
+2002-09-06  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (prompt): Change comment to give a better note to
+	translators.  From Michael Piefel.
+
+2002-09-02  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* README: A good problem report/patch includes diffs against
+	the most recent test release.
+
+	* src/pathchk.c (NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER): Define.
+	(pathconf_wrapper): Define only if NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER is set.
+
+	* src/kill.c (print_table_row): Use an unsigned type for widths
+	to avoid warning about comparison between signed and unsigned.
+	(list_signals): Likewise.
+
+	* src/od.c (skip): Add a cast to avoid warning about comparison
+	between signed and unsigned.
+	* src/install.c (get_ids): Likewise.  Also rearrange range-checking
+	comparisons to make them more readable.
+
+2002-09-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Version 4.5.1.
+
+2002-08-31  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	Symlinks were always reported as using 0 blocks.
+	* src/system.h (ST_NBLOCKS): Don't depend on file type.
+	This reverts the change of 2000-01-30.
+	Based on a report and patch from Neil Brown via Michael Stone.
+	This fixes Debian Bug#156358.
+
+	* Most files: Change `exit (0)' to `exit (EXIT_SUCCESS)',
+	`exit (1)' to `exit (EXIT_FAILURE)', and
+	`usage (1)' to `usage (EXIT_FAILURE)'.
+
+	* chgrp.c, chmod.c, chown.c, chroot.c, cp.c, date.c, dd.c, du.c,
+	* hostname.c, id.c, install.c, ln.c, mkdir.c, mkfifo.c, mknod.c,
+	* nice.c, pinky.c, printf.c, pwd.c, shred.c, sleep.c, stty.c,

+	* users.c, who.c: Change `error (1, ...' to `error (EXIT_FAILURE, ...'.
+	But don't change `error (0, ...' to `error (EXIT_SUCCESS, ...', since
+	error never exits successfully.
+
+2002-08-29  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Use closedir (not CLOSEDIR)
+	when ignoring any return value.
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Detect and diagnose readdir
+	failures.  On some systems (at least EMC Celerra and Solaris5.8),
+	this appears to be necessary.
+	(is_empty_dir): Likewise.  Also, always close directory handle.
+	* src/ls.c (print_dir): Likewise.
+	(print_dir): Rename local variable: reading -> dirp.
+	Reported by Mike Coleman.
+
+2002-08-28  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Use CLOSEDIR, not closedir.
+	Give a diagnostic and fail if closedir fails.
+
+2002-08-26  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.am (THANKS-to-translators): New rule.
+	(EXTRA_DIST): Add both THANKS-to-translators and THANKStt.in.
+	* THANKStt.in: New file.
+
+	* src/cat.c (close_stdout_wrapper): New, kludgey, function and
+	file-scoped global.
+	(main): Register it with atexit.
+	Close STDOUT_FILENO, to avoid a problem when writing to
+	/dev/audio on at least Solaris 5.7 and 5.8 systems.
+	Reported by Shing-Shong Shei.
+
+2002-08-25  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/cat.c (main): Close STDIN_FILENO rather than a literal `0'.
+	* src/tac.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/tail.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/tee.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/tr.c (main): Likewise.
+	* src/wc.c (main): Likewise.
+
+2002-08-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/mv/setup: Rewrite not to use `: ${VAR=not_set}' paradigm.
+
+2002-08-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* src/nohup.sh: Don't use "exec --"; it's not portable and
+	shouldn't be needed.
+
+2002-08-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/pr.c (main): Don't ignore -COLUMN if it's the last option.
+	(usage): Clarify help text for the -COLUMN option.
+	Patch by Padraig Brady.
+	* tests/pr/Test.pm [col-last]: New test for the above.
+
+	* configure.ac: Start with version 4.5.1, chosen so that it's larger
+	than the latest version numbers of the component packages.
+
+	* man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Set and export PATH so we use
+	programs in ../src.
+
+2002-08-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/date.c: Guard inclusion of <langinfo.h> with
+	`#if HAVE_LANGINFO_CODESET', not `#if HAVE_LANGINFO_H'.
+	* src/sort.c: Likewise.
+	Patch by GOTO Masanori.
+
+2002-08-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	Fix some minor time-related bugs with POSIX time arguments.
+	Some valid time stamps were being rejected (notably -1, and
+	time stamps before 1900 on 64-bit hosts).  And some invalid
+	time stamps were being accepted, e.g. September 31.
+
+	* src/date.c (main): Adjust to posixtime signature change.
+	* src/touch.c (main): Likewise.  Remove unnecessary initialization.
+	Use localtime, not posixtm, to warn about obsolete "touch".
+
+2002-08-05  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add nice and pathchk1.
+
+2002-08-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (check-README): New target/rule.
+	(check): Depend on it.
+
+	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add old/Makefile and old/*/Makefile.
+
+2002-08-03  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add old.
+	* old/: New directory, containing legacy ChangeLog* and NEWS files
+	from the fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (AM_INSTALLCHECK_STD_OPTIONS_EXEMPT): Set to false.
+
+2002-08-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi: uniq now obeys LC_COLLATE.
+
+	* src/uniq.c: Include hard-locale.h, xmemcoll.h.
+	(hard_LC_COLLATE): New var.
+	(different): Args are now char *, not const char *.
+	Use xmemcoll instead of memcmp to compare lines, so that
+	LC_COLLATE has effect.  However, use memcmp if it is an
+	easy locale.
+	(check_file): Do not include newline in comparison, so that
+	xmemcoll has a byte to stomp on temporarily.
+	(main): Set hard_LC_COLLATE.
+
+2002-07-29  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove djgpp, for now.
+
+2002-07-20  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* Makefile.am (false.c): Convert only the final EXIT_SUCCESS
+	into EXIT_FAILURE.  Otherwise, false --help and false --version
+	would fail.
+
+2002-07-08  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (uninstall-local): Search for @GNU_PACKAGE@,
+	rather than the hard-coded `sh-utils'.
+
+2002-07-01  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
+	* configure.ac: Merge the three files from fileutils,
+	textutils, and sh-utils.
+	* Makefile.am: Likewise.
+	* src/Makefile.am: Likewise.
