+ * src/uname.c: Do not depend on HAVE_SYSCTL when deciding
+ whether to include files. Include <sys/param.h> if
+ HAVE_SYS_PARAM_H (not HAVE_SYSCTL).
+ (main) [defined __POWERPC__]: Add a kludge to work around a
+ Mac OS X bug, so that uname -p defaults to "powerpc" if
+ sysctl ((int[]) {CTL_HW, HW_MACHINE_ARCH}, 2, buffer, &bufsize, 0, 0)
+ fails. Problem reported by Petter Reinholdtsen in:
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2003-02/msg00201.html
+
* src/uniq.c (hard_LC_COLLATE, ignore_case, different, check_file,
main): Use bool for booleans.
(writeline, check_file): Use uintmax_t for line counts.
