+ * tests/touch/dir-1: New test.
+ * tests/touch/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove individual
+ upper-case program names. Add a definition of PATH.
+ (TESTS): Add dir-1.
+
+ * src/mkdir.c (main): Use better wording in diagnostic: `cannot
+ create directory' rather than `cannot make directory'. The former
+ also matches the one in makepath.c.
+
+ * src/dd.c: (apply_translations): Use TOUPPER and TOLOWER,
+ not toupper and tolower.

+ * lib/makepath.c (make_dir): When reporting a mkdir failure and the
+ target cannot be `stat'ed, use the errno from the failed mkdir call,
+ not the one from the stat call. Before this change, running
+ `mkdir -p /no-dir/no-dir' as an unprivileged user would wrongly
+ elicit `No such file or directory' instead of `Permission denied'.
+
* lib/strtol.c (TYPE_SIGNED, TYPE_MAXIMUM, TYPE_MINIMUM): Define.
(ULONG_LONG_MAX, LONG_LONG_MAX, LONG_LONG_MIN): Define if not defined.
Based on a patch from Kaveh Ghazi.

- * src/touch.c (usage): Mention --no-create.
- Only do the fstat if we need to.
- On directories, resort to doing a stat, but only when necessary.
+ * src/touch.c (touch): Only do the fstat if we need to.
+ Resort to calling stat for directories, but only when necessary.

* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Move the one-file-system test so that
it follows the `if (new_dst || !S_ISDIR (dst_sb.st_mode))' block.
