* Version 5.3.1.
+ Add bulletproofing for cases where stdin, stdout, or stderr are closed.
+ * src/comm.c: Include stdio-safer.h.
+ (compare_files): Exit right away on I/O error rather than continuing
+ and producing confusing output and error messages.
+ Return void, not int; all callers changed.
+ Use fopen_safer to avoid confusion with file descriptors.
+ * src/copy.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (copy_reg): Use fd_safer.
+ * src/csplit.c: Include stdio-safer.h.
+ (input_desc): Remove unnecessary static initialization.
+ (set_input_file): Use STDIN_FILENO, not 0.
+ (create_output_file): Use fopen_safer.
+ * src/dircolors.c (dc_parse_file): Don't assume fopen does not
+ return stdin.
+ * src/head.c (head_file): Don't assume open does not return 0.
+ * src/join.c: Include stdio-safer.h.
+ (main): Use fopen_safer. Simplify the resulting code.
+ * src/md5sum.c (digest_file, digest_check):
+ Don't assume that fopen does not return stdin.
+ * src/nohup.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (main): Don't dup stderr to stdin or stdout by mistake.
+ * src/od.c (check_and_close): Don't assume fopen does not return stdin.
+ * src/paste.c (paste_serial): Likewise.
+ * src/pr.c: Include stdio-safer.h.
+ (open_file): Use fopen_safer.
+ (close_file): Don't assume fopen does not return stdin.
+ * src/ptx.c (main): Don't assume fopen returns stdout after closing
+ stdout. Use freopen instead.
+ * src/shred.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (wipename): Use fd_safer on directory file descriptor.
+ (wipefile): Remove special case for /dev/fd/* on older hosts.
+ It didn't work in general, and wasn't documented.
+ Use fd_safer.
+ * src/sort.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (create_temp_file): Use fd_safer.
+ (xfclose): Don't assume fileno (stdin) == STDIN_FILENO, etc.
+ * src/split.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (cwrite): Use fd_safer. Replace mystery constant 0666 with symbolic
+ version, as POSIX requires.
+ * src/sum.c (bsd_sum_file, sysv_sym_file):
+ Use same pattern as elsewhere for checking for stdin.
+ * src/tac.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (copy_to_temp): Use fd_safer.
+ (tac_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
+ * src/tail.c: Include unistd-safer.h rather than fcntl-safer.h.
+ (recheck, tail_file): Use fd_safer rather than open_safer.
+ * src/tee.c: Include stdio-safer.h.
+ (tee): Use fopen_safer.
+ * src/touch.c: Include unistd-safer.h.
+ (touch): Use fd_safer.
+ * src/tsort.c (have_read_stdin): Remove; no longer needed. All uses
+ removed.
+ (tsort): Do not assume fopen can't return stdin.
+ Close stdin before returning. All uses changed.
+ * src/unexpand.c (next_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
+ * src/uniq.c: Include stdio_safer.h.
+ (check_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin or stdout.

* src/dd.c (quit): Define with ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
Now that close_stdout closes standard output unconditionally,
