2002-06-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* d-type.m4 (jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE): Rename macro:
	s/D_TYPE_IN_DIRENT/HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE/.

2002-05-28  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* readdir.m4 (jm_FUNC_READDIR): Undefine `mkdir', not `rmdir'.
	Reported by Volker Borchert.

2002-05-27  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* gettimeofday.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETTIMEOFDAY_CLOBBER): Also replace
	localtime.

	* readdir.m4 (jm_FUNC_READDIR): Undefine `rmdir' so we don't try to
	use the replacement function; it wouldn't resolve at link time.
	Reported by Volker Borchert.

2002-04-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_STAT.

2002-04-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HARD_LOCALE): Check for stdlib.h.
	Do not check for alloca.h (no longer used) or stdbool.h (was never
	used?).  Add AM_C_PROTOTYPES since hard-locale.h uses it.

2002-04-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_SIG2STR): Remove; all callers changed.

2002-04-29  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove use of AC_FUNC_STRNLEN.
	* prereq.m4: Add jm_PREREQ_STRNLEN.
	Use AC_FUNC_STRNLEN here instead.

	* jm-macros.m4: Don't AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC_STDC]).
	With autoconf-2.53a, it's part of AC_PROG_CC.

2002-04-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add AC_REPLACE_FUNCS(sig2str).
	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_SIG2STR.

2002-04-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HARD_LOCALE): New macro.
	(jm_PREREQ): Use it.

	* getloadavg.m4: Check for these headers: locale.h unistd.h
	mach/mach.h fcntl.h.
	Check for this function: setlocale.

2002-04-16  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Also check for these members:
	ut_pid, ut_id, ut_exit.

2002-04-12  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (checking for getmntinfo function...): Remove now-bogus
	check for f_type in sys/mount.h.  Instead, just test for the existence
	of the getmntinfo function.  Needed for Darwin 5.3.

	* dirfd.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD): Also detect when dirfd is a macro.
	This is necessary at least on Darwin 5.3.

	* jm-macros.m4: Don't AC_REPLACE(strnlen), now that we use
	AC_FUNC_STRNLEN.  Otherwise, we'd end up putting two copies of strnlen.o
	in the library, and that makes some versions of ranlib object.

2002-04-09  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* malloc.m4: (jm_FUNC_MALLOC): Change the `checking ...' message
	to be more precise.  Rather than saying we're checking whether the
	function `works', say what we're testing.
	* realloc.m4 (jm_FUNC_REALLOC): Likewise.
	Reported by Bruno Haible.

2002-02-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Do not replace stime; no longer used.
	Check for clock_settime.

2002-02-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* acl.m4: New file.
	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require AC_FUNC_ACL.
	Do not check for acl or sys/acl.h, as AC_FUNC_ACL does that now.

2002-02-16  gettextize  <bug-gnu-gettext@gnu.org>

	* codeset.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
	* gettext.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
	* glibc21.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
	* iconv.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
	* isc-posix.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.

	* lib-link.m4: New file, from gettext-0.11.
	* lib-prefix.m4: New file, from gettext-0.11.
	* progtest.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.

2002-02-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* m4/prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_POSIXVER): New macro.
	(jm_PREREQ): Use it.

2002-01-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require autoconf-2.52g.
	* strnlen.m4: Remove file, now that it's part of autoconf.

2002-01-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require AC_FUNC_FSEEKO.

2002-01-19  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use AC_FUNC_STRNLEN.
	Remove useless quotes: DF_PROG="df".
	* strnlen.m4: New file.

2001-12-14  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for iswspace.
	Suggestion from Bruno Haible.

2001-11-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Update comment to reflect that
	SunOS4.1.4 and solaris2.5.1 lose, too.

2001-11-19  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Don't bother with a temporary
	directory.  Use "conftestXXXXXX" as the template.
	Suggestion from Paul Eggert.

	* mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Close each descriptor immediately,
	so the test doesn't mistakenly hit the max-open-files limit.

2001-11-18  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_TEMPNAME): Check for declaration of getenv.

2001-11-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): New file and macro.
	Prompted by a report from Bob Proulx.

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Don't test for mkstemp here.
	Instead, require UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP.

2001-11-11  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove code to set POW_LIBM.
	Now, that's done as part of AC_FUNC_STRTOD.

2001-10-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* jm-winsz1.m4 (jm_WINSIZE_IN_PTEM): Do not define
	WINSIZE_IN_PTEM if <termios.h> defines struct winsize.

2001-11-10  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_PHYSMEM): New function.
	(jm_PREREQ): Use it.

2001-11-09  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.52f.
	(AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AC_FUNC_OBSTACK, AC_FUNC_STRTOD):
	Use these AC_-prefixed names, not the AM_-prefixed ones.

	* afs.m4 (jm_AFS): Quote the body.  Patch by Akim Demaille.

2001-11-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* fpending.m4: Remove unused cruft that saved, set, and restored $DEFS.

2001-11-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-glibc-io.m4n (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Quote first arg
	of AC_DEFUN.

	* dirfd.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD): Rework so dirfd.c doesn't have to
	know the name of the variable in the macro definition.

2001-11-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* dirfd.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD): New macro.
	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD.

2001-10-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* error.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ERROR):
	Do not invoke AC_CHECK_FUNCS with strerror_r, as
	AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R does that.
	Check for strerror declaration.

	* strerror_r.m4: Add copyright notice, as nontrivial m4 files
	are supposed to have them these days.
	(AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Always do char* test, so that it gets cached.
	Merge changes from latest Autoconf CVS.
	Rename ac_cv_func_strerror_r_works to ac_cv_func_strerror_r_char_p,
	and rename HAVE_WORKING_STRERROR_R to STRERROR_R_CHAR_P, since
	POSIX decided to standardize on the int flavor of strerror_r.

2001-09-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): See if
	`struct fsstat' has the `f_fstypename' member.
	Use that to define FS_TYPE, which is now used to make
	the getfsstat link test tighter.

2001-09-29  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS)
	[one-argument getmntent function]): Include stdio.h before mntent.h.
	SunOS4.1.x needs it for the declaration of `FILE'.
	Patch by Volker Borchert.

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS)
	Check for these headers: sys/param.h sys/ucred.h sys/mount.h
	sys/fs_types.h, and make the link-test for getfsstat guard #include
	directives with appropriate #if HAVE_*_H tests so that we can
	detect getfsstat on Apple Darwin1.3.7 systems.
	Reported by Nelson Beebe.
	Fix harmless typo in cache variable name: s/getsstat/getfsstat/.

2001-09-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	Fix bug reported by Petter Reinholdtsen for HP-UX 10.20, which
	#defines strtoimax.  Also treat the other strto* functions
	like strtoimax.

	* xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX):
	Check for strtoul and strtoumax,
	as those declarations are made even in the signed case.
	* xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX):
	Likewise, for strtol and strtoimax.

2001-09-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* gettext.m4: Use the version from gettext-0.10.40, not CVS.

2001-09-23  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add a compile-test
	instead of the mere test for existence of mntent.h.  The latter
	would get a false-positive on AIX 3.4 systems.
	In the outer getmntent if-block, don't die if neither of the getmntent
	tests succeeds.  Instead, just fall through and continue with the
	remaining tests.

2001-09-22  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* gettext.m4: New file.  From gettext.
	* lcmessage.m4: Sync with gettext -- this changes only comments.

	whenever the right hand side need not be expanded by the shell.

2001-09-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* fnmatch.m4 (jm_FUNC_FNMATCH): Remove test for GNU C
	library.  It's not correct, as some older glibcs are buggy.
	fnmatch wasn't fixed until glibc 2.2.

	Use AC_DEFINE, not AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED, as there's no
	special shell magic here.

2001-09-16  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mkdir-slash.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKDIR_TRAILING_SLASH): New file/macro.

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Likewise.

	* uintmax_t.m4: Remove, as it duplicates inttypes.m4.

	* xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX):
	Quote first arg of AC_DEFUN.
	Require jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T and jm_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG
	since they are needed to parse the include file even if we need
	only xstrtoimax.  Simplify logic behind the args to AC_REPLACE.
	* xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Likewise,
	but with opposite signedness.

2001-08-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	UnixWare 7.1.1.

	* mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,

	In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
	(jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
	(jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
	Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;

	The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even

	strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
	Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
	Check for strtol.  Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
	strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
	Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.

	Reported by Mike Stone.

2000-08-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4: Use jm_FUNC_FPENDING.
	* fpending.m4: New file.

2000-08-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
	`#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'.  The latter would lose on systems with neither
	utmp.h nor utmpx.h.  Reported by Eli Zaretskii.

2000-08-11  J. David Anglin  <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>

	Improve fileutils installation on systems where running
	programs (like install) can't be unlinked.
	* unlink-busy.m4 (jm_FUNC_UNLINK_BUSY_TEXT): New file/macro.
	* jm-macros.m4: Use jm_FUNC_UNLINK_BUSY_TEXT.

2000-08-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T): Define mbstate_t to be int,

	From a suggestion by Bruno Haible.
	* mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
	Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.  All uses changed.
	Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
	and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.

2000-07-10  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* strerror_r.m4: Mirror the correction made in autoconf.

2000-07-05  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

	* strerror_r.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Pass a reasonably large buffer
	to strerror_r.
	Include <ctype.h> for use of isalpha.

2000-07-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
	and Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

	* mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
	only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails.  This
	prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
	system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
	around its lack.

2000-07-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead
	of the deprecated AC_CHECKING.

	problem.

2000-06-17  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Rename BeOS specific
	macro from MOUNTED_NEXT_DEV to MOUNTED_FS_STAT_DEV.

	* uptime.m4: Put double quotes around use of $cross_compiling.

2000-06-28  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h.  The latter is not included
	by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test.  From Bruno Haible.

2000-06-17  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

	* check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
	<utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.

2000-06-25  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
	Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.

2000-06-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
	version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
	for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
	accessible declaration of the function.  If the compile-test says
	strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
	BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.

2000-06-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.
	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Use it.  Add check for iswprint.

2000-06-23  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* afs.m4: Add missing AC_MSG_RESULT.
	Reported by Bruno Haible.

	* fsusage.m4: s/AC_MSG_CHECKING/AC_CHECKING/.
	Suggestion from Bruno Haible.

2000-06-21  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add getpass.

2000-06-18  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Remove mkdir.

	* link-follow.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK): Change the
	`checking whether...' message to be consistent with that of the
	lstat test.

2000-06-16  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

	* glibc21.m4 (jm_GLIBC21): Define GLIBC21 for Makefiles, not for C.

2000-06-12  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Replace with AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
	from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
	* jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
	the optional argument, `lib'.

2000-06-08  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).

2000-06-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
	getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST.  [I'm leaving the use of
	AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]

	* largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
	AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
	CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
	All uses changed.
	Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
	test program without and with the macro definition.
	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
	for getconf.  Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
	test programs.

2000-06-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
	now that autoconf requires that.

	* jm-glibc-io.m4: Add a kludge to make autoheader emit the required
	#undefs.  E.g., #undef HAVE_DECL_FERROR_UNLOCKED.

2000-05-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* uptime.m4: Use `$cross_compiling', not `$ac_cv_prog_cc_cross'.

2000-05-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4: Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_MEMBERS, now that
	autoconf requires that.
	* lib-check.m4: Likewise.
	* jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
	* strftime.m4: Likewise.

	* check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
	now that autoconf requires that.

2000-05-22  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	AC_SEARCH_LIBS call for nanosleep.
	(LIB_NANOSLEEP): Set and AC_SUBST.

2000-05-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
	be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
	2.1.3 bug.  This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
	_GNU_SOURCE.

2000-05-05  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Save and restore LIBS around AC_SEARCH_LIBS
	call for clock_gettime.
	(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME): Set and AC_SUBST.

	* search-libs.m4: Update from autoconf.

	su doesn't work on Solaris2.6.

2000-05-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if
	this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3).  Use
	compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
	decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.

2000-05-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add BeOS support.
	Based on a patch from Bruno Haible.

2000-04-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	Get it right :-)
	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
	actual #define via AH_VERBATIM.  Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
	Suggestion from Akim Demaille.

2000-04-14  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
	of AC_DEFINE.  Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.

2000-04-13  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
	to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
	Suggestion from Akim Demaille.

2000-04-12  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
	`AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h.  Thanks to a report from
	Christian Krackowizer.

	More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
	* jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
	(AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.

2000-04-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
	IRIX if the installer said otherwise.

2000-04-05  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
	* check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
	(jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
	(_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
	From John David Anglin.

	* strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.

	* gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.

	* codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

2000-04-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
	variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
	portable.  This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
	on the potentially-renamed putenv function.

2000-03-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
	before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
	HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.

2000-03-29  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
	since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
	the underlying strftime.

2000-03-10  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.

2000-03-02  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
	the messages come out on separate lines.

	* jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
	rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
	* decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.

2000-02-10  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Rename replacement function from
	gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.

2000-02-09  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
	struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd.  Reported by Gaël Quéri.

2000-02-08  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

	* largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

	* memcmp.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Likewise, and add `int' for main.
	* getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Likewise.

2000-02-05  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
	Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME.  It is required by
	jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC.  Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
	`AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
	in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
	the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
	Reported by Volker Borchert.

2000-02-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

	* check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
	functions.  Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
	AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.

2000-01-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.

	* prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.

	and struct utmp.

2000-01-29  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from

	from the missing script.  Suggestion from François Pinard.

2000-01-25  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	as time.h in the compile check.
	* nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
	Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.

2000-01-23  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

	* jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in

	* ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
	(jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.

	* fsusage.m4: New file.  Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.
	s/space/ac_fsusage_space/.
	(jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Take two parameters.

	* ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
	* jm-macros.m4 (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
	(jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.

	* jm-macros.m4 (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
	AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
	that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
	all the same.
	(AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
	(AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.
	(AM_FUNC_STRTOD): Added (from textutils', sh-utils' configure.in).

	cache-check for the same variable -- that defeated the purpose of
	the test; the test program was never run.  This was a problem only
