stdbuf: A new program to run a command with modified stdio buffering
* AUTHORS: Register as the author. * NEWS: Mention this change. * README: Add stdbuf command to list. * configure.ac: Only enable on ELF systems with GCC. * cfg.mk (sc_system_h_headers): Use VC_LIST_EXCEPT rather than VC_LIST, so we can add an exception, if needed. * .x-sc_system_h_headers: New file. Exempt libstdbuf.c. * Makefile.am (syntax_check_exceptions): Add .x-sc_system_h_headers. * doc/coreutils.texi (stdbuf invocation): Add stdbuf info. * man/.gitignore: Ignore generated manpage. * src/.gitignore: Ignore stdbuf and libstdbuf.so binaries. * man/Makefile.am (stdbuf.1): Add dependency. * man/stdbuf.x: New file with example usage. * po/POTFILES.in: Reference new command and shared library sources. * src/Makefile.am (build_if_possible__progs): Add stdbuf and libstdbuf, (pkglib_PROGRAMS): Reference optional shared lib, (libstdbuf_so_LDADD): Ensure we don't link with non PIC libcoreutils.a. (libstdbuf_so_LDFLAGS): Add -shared GCC option, (libstdbuf_so_CFLAGS): Add -fPIC GCC option. (check-README): Exclude libstbuf. (check-AUTHORS): ditto. (sc_tight_scope): Exclude functions starting with __. * src/libstdbuf.c: The LD_PRELOAD shared library to control buffering. * src/stdbuf.c: New file to setup env variables before execing command. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference new test file. * tests/misc/help-version: Set expected exit codes. * tests/misc/invalid-opt: ditto. * tests/misc/stdbuf: Add 9 tests.
