@@ -4,6 +4,12 @@ Changes in release 4.1.0:
directory, don't treat it as if it were the only argument. Before,
`mkdir d; ls no-dir d 2>/dev/null' would act like `ls d' and produce
no output. Now, it prints `d:'.
+* touch -d 'last friday' would use a time stamp that was one hour off
+ (e.g., 23:00 on *thursday* rather than 00:00 of the preceding friday)
+ when run such that the current time and the target date/time fall on
+ opposite sides of a daylight savings time transition.
+ This problem arises only with relative date strings like `last monday'.
+ It is not a problem with strings that include absolute dates.
[4.0.43]
* regenerate configure-related files using autoconf-2.49d
