470Thu Nov 14 11:15:27 1996 David J MacKenzie <djm@catapult.va.pubnix.com>
471
472 * acheaders: Add entry for malloc.h. Make the strings.h entry
473 suggest AC_CHECK_HEADERS instead of AC_HEADER_STDC.
474
475 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Move initialization of
476 ac_max_here_lines here from AC_OUTPUT_HEADER.
477
478 * autoheader.sh: Take the multiple-include protection back out.
479 It's not needed for a file that just #defines stuff, and, as Ken
480 Raeburn pointed out in Apr 1994:
481 Since you don't make it optional, and you don't give the writer of
482 configure.in much control over the name of the symbol, it also would
483 prevent one "config.h" file in a subdirectory from including
484 "../config.h" as a way to avoid duplicating some common tests.
485
486 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_WORKS, AC_PROG_CXX_WORKS): Don't try
487 running a program, just try linking.
488 (AC_C_CROSS): Make the wording clearer.

493 compiler works before checking whether it's a GNU compiler.
494 (AC_FUNC_VFORK): Call _exit after perror.
495 (AC_PATH_XTRA): Go back to using -R, as setting an env var as part
496 of CC doesn't get eval'd correctly to actually work.
497 Directly test whether a space is needed after -R.
498 Don't add "-L" to LDFLAGS if $x_libraries is empty.
499 (AC_FUNC_STRFTIME): Check for it in -lintl only if it's not in the
500 normal libraries.
501
502 * Test release 2.10.3.
503
504 * testsuite/Makefile.in (dejacheck): New target, suggested by Tom
505 Tromey <tromey@creche.cygnus.com>.

508Tue Nov 12 00:06:14 1996 David J MacKenzie <djm@catapult.va.pubnix.com>
509
510 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Split the list of sed commands in
511 conftest.subs into multiple files named conftest.s[1-9][0-9]*.
512 Create a pipeline of sed commands that use these files, then delete
513 the temporary files. From John W. Eaton <jwe@bevo.che.wisc.edu>.
514
515 * acspecific.m4 (AC_AIX, AC_MINIX): Remove warnings about AC_TRY_LINK.
516 These macros don't change the linkage options.
517
518 * Test release 2.10.2.
519
520 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX) [GCC]: Use -O2 instead

522
523 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Support passing
524 AC_CONFIG_HEADER a value containing shell variables. Suggested by
525 Markku Savela <msa@msa.tte.vtt.fi> and Julian Onions
526 <j.onions@nexor.co.uk>.
527 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_RUN_NATIVE, AC_TRY_LINK, AC_TRY_COMPILE,
528 AC_TRY_CPP): Show the test program in config.log if the test fails.
529 From Karl Berry <karl@cs.umb.edu>.
530
531 * testsuite/config/unix.exp: Run the configure script as "./script"
532 in case the user doesn't have "." in their PATH.
533

535
536 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_COMPILE, AC_TRY_LINK): Deal with smart
537 compilers that know that an unused function doesn't have to be
538 linked in: call the function directly from main().
539 (Removing a legacy from when they tried to run the code, I think-djm.)
540 From fnf@ninemoons.com (Fred Fish).
541
542 * acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Rename ac_save_LIBS to avoid
543 a clash with AC_CHECK_LIB.
544 From Jim Meyering <meyering@asic.sc.ti.com>.
545 (AC_FUNC_FNMATCH, AC_FUNC_MMAP, AC_FUNC_VFORK, AC_FUNC_WAIT3,
546 AC_FUNC_STRCOLL, AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Rename cache variables to avoid
547 wrong results if someone calls AC_CHECK_FUNC for these functions.
548
549 * autoheader.sh: Don't cmp with config.h.in if it doesn't exist yet.
550 Don't frob lines 1-@TOP@ or @BOTTOM@-end of acconfig.h's.
551 Accept TAB as well as SPC after #undef in acconfig.h's.
552
553Sat Nov 9 01:54:04 1996 David J MacKenzie <djm@catapult.va.pubnix.com>

563 isn't eaten.
564
565 * autoheader.sh: Add multiple-inclusion protection for config.h.
566
567 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM): Pretty up the output.
568 (AC_CHECK_LIB): Include the function being tested in the message.
569 (AC_CHECK_PROG, AC_PATH_PROG): Add a dummy variable to force word
570 splitting on the path.
571
572 * acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_MMAP): Remove check and uses of valloc.
573 It turns out it's a separate issue, for GNU grep.
574 Replace the test program with a new version from Mike Haertel.
575
576 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_CACHE_SAVE): Accept the HP-UX sh 'set' output
577 format. From Marcus Daniels <marcus@sysc.pdx.edu>.
578
579 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_MSG_CHECKING, AC_CHECKING): Write a message to
580 config.log also. From "T.E.Dickey" <dickey@clark.net>.
581 (AC_CHECK_LIB, AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Replace use of
582 tr with sed, to avoid a bug in the AIX 4.1.3.0 tr reported by
583 Alain KNAFF <Alain.Knaff@imag.fr>. He says that version of
584 tr interprets \055 as a range specifier, like an unquoted -.
585 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_MAKE_SET, AC_CHECK_HEADER_DIRENT,
586 AC_CHECK_HEADERS_DIRENT): Ditto.
587
588 * acspecific.m4 (AC_FUNC_SETPGRP): New macro.

593 From Guillermo Gomez <gomez@mi.uni-erlangen.de>.
594 (AC_PATH_XTRA): Replace -R with adding LD_RUN_PATH to CC in the
595 Solaris kludge. Suggested by Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>.
596 Define X_DISPLAY_MISSING with AC_DEFINE, and
597 if not using X, clear out the X variables.
598 Check system-dependent libs before system-independent ones.
599 Check for more system-dependent libs.
600 From Karl Berry.
601 Use AC_CHECK_FUNC in the system-dependent libs tests.
602 From Larry Schwimmer <rosebud@cyclone.stanford.edu>.
603 Wart removal: Don't require AC_ISC_POSIX.
604 (AC_ISC_POSIX): Require AC_PROG_CC, since it uses $GCC.
605 From gvran@uddeborg.pp.se.
606 Don't blather about being called before AC_TRY_LINK,
607 which is now called in AC_PROG_CC. Don't encourage using this macro.
608 * acconfig.h (X_DISPLAY_MISSING): Add entry.
609
610Fri Nov 8 16:02:08 1996 David J MacKenzie <djm@catapult.va.pubnix.com>

619 case code.
620
621 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CXX): Check for cc++ for NexT.
622 From Carl Edman <cedman@princeton.edu>.
623 (AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX): Check whether -g works even if
624 C[XX]FLAGS is set. From T.E.Dickey <dickey@clark.net>
625 (AC_FUNC_FNMATCH): New macro.
626 * acconfig.h (HAVE_FNMATCH): New entry.
627
628 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Call AC_CHECK_FUNCS to do the work.

727 AC_OUTPUT_MAKE_DEFS here too: Match `#define foo' without trailing

731Sun Mar 10 20:30:09 1996 Roland McGrath <roland@charlie-brown.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
732
733 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_INIT_NOTICE): Add 95 and 96 to copyright years.

766
767 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_TRY_CPP): Use "" instead of '' when setting

782
783 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PATH_X, AC_PATH_X_XMKMF, AC_PATH_X_DIRECT):
784 Rearrange logic: do no tests if $with_x=no; make incl and lib
785 tests independent, and distinguish unset from empty.
786
787 * autoconf.sh (undefined macro check): \ sed \s inside "". If
788 grep $name in $infile misses, give error message that there must
789 be an Autoconf bug.

835
