2004-11-13	Avoid O(N**2) behavior when there are many temporary files.	Paul Eggert
	(temptail): New variable, so that we can easily append to list. (create_temp_file): Create new files at end of list, so that searching the list has O(NNMERGE) behavior instead of O(N2). (zaptemp): Update temptail if needed. (mergefps, merge): Accept new arg that counts temp files, and keep it up to date as we create and remove temporaries. This is for efficiency, so that we don't call zaptemp so often. All callers changed. (sort): Don't create array in reverse order, since the list of temporaries is now in the correct order. (zaptemp): Protect against race condition: if 'sort' is interrupted in the middle of zaptemp, it might unlink the temporary file twice, and the second time this happens the file might already have been created by some other process. (create_temp_file): Use offsetof for clarity. (die): Move it up earlier, to clean up the code a bit.
2004-11-12	Move "Version" to top.	Paul Eggert

2004-11-12	Support longer page numbers in "pr", and allow most file names starting	Paul Eggert
	with "+".
2004-11-12	Document recent changes to "pr".	Paul Eggert

2004-11-12	(strtoumax): Declare if not declared.	Paul Eggert
	(skip_to_page, first_page_number, last_page_number, page_number, first_last_page, print_header): Use uintmax_t for page numbers. (first_last_page): Remove unnecessary forward declaration. Do not modify arg (it is now a const pointer). Return a true if successful, false (without print a diagnostic) otherwise. (main): If +XXX does not specify a valid page range, treat it as a file name. This follows the response to Open Group XCU ERN 41 <http://www.opengroup.org/sophocles/show_mail.tpl?source=L&listname=austin-group-l&id=7717>, which says the behavior is allowed. (skip_to_page): When starting page number exceeds page count, print both numbers in the diagnostic. (print_header): Detect page number overflow.

2004-11-09	[__APPLE__]: Include <mach/machine.h> and <mach-o/arch.h>.	Jim Meyering
	(main) [__APPLE__]: Get the processor type via syscall rather than hard-coding "powerpc". From toby@opendarwin.org.

2004-11-06	* src/sort.c: Avoid some silly merges.	Paul Eggert

2004-11-06	(first_same_file): Remove. Move most of the code to....	Paul Eggert
	(avoid_trashing_input): New function. (merge): Avoid some silly merges, e.g., copying a single file to a temporary file when there are exactly 17 input files to merge. Take a count of temporary files rather than a max_merge arg. All uses changed.

2004-11-06	Ensure that no close failure goes unreported.	Jim Meyering
	(close_stdout): Always close stdout. I.e., don't return early when it seems there's nothing to flush. Don't include __fpending.h.
2004-11-06	(xfclose): Don't close stdout here (just flush it),	Jim Meyering
	since close_stdout now closes stdout unconditionally.
2004-11-05	* src/sort.c: Fixx size_t and alloca bugs.	Paul Eggert

2004-11-05	(inittables, sort_buffer_size, getmonth, mergefps,	Paul Eggert
	first_same_file, merge, sort, main): Use size_t for indexes into arrays. This fixes some unlikely havoc-wreaking bugs (e.g., more than INT_MAX temporary files). (getmonth, keycompare, compare): Rewrite to avoid need for alloca, thus avoiding unchecked stack overflow in some cases. As a side effect this improve the performance of "sort -M" by a factor of 4 on my benchmarks.

2004-11-03	(check-AUTHORS): Don't assume \? works in a sed	Paul Eggert
	expression; it's not portable. Problem reported by Albert Chin. Don't invoke a program more than once.

2004-11-03	Don't #define and #undef getopt around <stdlib.h>,	Paul Eggert
