904
905Sun Jul 18 22:36:33 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
906
907 * autoheader.sh (frob): Use `#' as the first line of each definition.
908 (eval frob): Totally simplify sed use to just handle "^@@@.*@@@$".
909
910Wed Jul 14 22:44:25 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
911
912 * acconfig.h: Restore blank lines between paragraphs.
913
914 * autoheader.sh (libs): New variable and frob to set it from
915 AC_HAVE_LIBRARY uses. Produce #undef HAVE_* for each $libs.
916
917Tue Jul 13 19:03:46 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@kropotkin.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
918
919 * acconfig.h: Sort the entries, like the comment says.
920
921 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Only check for the AIX library
922 once, looking in both local and system dirs.
923 Consolidate SVR4 and Solaris cases.
924
925Mon Jul 12 20:33:36 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
926
927 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): If we find sys/dg_sys_info.h, do
928 AC_HAVE_LIBRARY on -ldgc.
929
930Sun Jul 11 00:43:51 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
931
932 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): BSD library is -lutil, not
933 -lutils, and requires -lkvm too.
934 Check for local AIX library using AC_HAVE_LIBRARY, not
935 AC_COMPILE_CHECK.
936 Un-nest some conditionals. Stop checking once we've
937 found a way to get getloadavg.
938
939Thu Jul 8 20:21:28 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
940
941 * Makefile.in: Remove rules for making *.conf; make
942 Autoconf's configure script semi-normally.
943
944Wed Jul 7 14:37:35 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
945
946 * autoheader.sh (--help): Print help message to stdout and exit 0.
947 (--version): Exit after printing version number.
948 * autoconf.sh (--version): Exit after printing version number.
949
950 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_DOUBLE): Make sure that long double
951 isn't smaller than double, as in Ultrix 4.[23] cc.

959
960 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Try ls -L first, in case
961 /dev/kmem is a symlink (as on Solaris).
962
963Wed Jun 30 22:08:22 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
964
965 * acspecific.m4 (AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O): Remove spurious `then'.
966
967Fri Jun 25 23:16:42 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
968
969 * acspecific.m4 (AC_CONST): Replace `p = <const char** expr>'
970 with `ccp = <const char** expr>'; the former wasn't ANSI C, and
971 was causing working compilers to be rejected.
972
973Fri Jun 25 13:26:34 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
974
975 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Redirect rm's stderr to
976 /dev/null.
977
978Thu Jun 24 15:58:04 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
979
980 * autoconf.sh, autoheader.sh, acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Undo
981 change of Jun 16 1993. Only set `LANG' and `LC_ALL' to "C" if
982 already set.
983
984Sat Jun 19 00:01:51 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
985
986 * acgeneral.m4: Undefine m4's `format' builtin.
987 * acspecific.m4 (AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): Make conftest executable,
988 but not necessarily writable by group or other.
989
990Thu Jun 17 21:10:33 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
991
992 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CPP): Put double quotes around ${CC-cc},
993 not single quotes.
994 If --verbose option given, say what CPP is being set to.
995
996Wed Jun 16 17:50:00 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
997
998 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_CPP): Make sure that `cc -E` doesn't
999 run the program through the C compiler too. Bob Olson
1000 <olson@mcs.anl.gov> says it does on the NeXT.
1001
1002Wed Jun 16 16:17:05 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1003
1004 * autoconf.sh, autoheader.sh, acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Always set
1005 `LANG' and `LC_ALL' environment variables to `C'.
1006
1007Fri Jun 11 14:29:31 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1008
1009 * acspecific.m4 (AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O): Test that cc works at all,
1010 and only test it for -c -o if it does.
1011
1012Tue Jun 8 01:47:22 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
1013
1014 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): The line
1015 DEFS="`echo \"$DEFS\" | sed 's%[&\\\]%\\\&%g'`"
1016 doesn't work in some shells, which don't allow nesting
1017 \"\" inside `` inside "", and which don't unescape \\\& in the
1018 expected (?) way. Also, some versions of echo interpret
1019 backslashes inside $DEFS. Put $DEFS into a temporary file
1020 to avoid these portability minefields.
1021
1022Mon Jun 7 20:11:50 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1023
1024 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): In setting KMEM_GROUP, use new sed
1025 magic from friedman which should win with both meanings of ls -lg.
1026
1027Mon Jun 7 06:48:49 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1028
1029 * Makefile.in (dist): Change gzipped tar file extension to `.gz'.
1030 Use explicit --gzip option to tar to make sure tar uses the right
1031 compression program (or else exits from failure to understand the
1032 option).
1033
1034 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Don't split sed expr for exec_prefix
1035 across two lines, since not all versions of sed understand that.
1036
1037 * acspecific.m4 (AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): Complete rewrite which doesn't
1038 depend on csh.
1039
1040Tue Jun 1 03:06:28 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1041
1042 * Version 1.4.1 (not announced to the general public, but
1043 a snapshot was put on the June '93 GNU CDROM).
1044
1045 * Makefile.in (dist): If ln fails (e.g. because of cross-device
1046 links), mention on stdout that file is being copied.
1047
1048 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Use `[$]*' in assignment to
1049 configure_args to get shell positional args, rather than m4 args to
1050 AC_PREPARE.
1051 (AC_OUTPUT): Use `configure_args' in config.status
1052 when invoked with --recheck, rather than $*.
1053
1054Mon May 31 13:12:56 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
1055
1056 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): rm $dir/conftest*,
1057 not conftest*.
1058
1059Mon May 31 04:18:18 1993 Roland McGrath (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1060
1061 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_HAVE_LIBRARY): Quote libname in define.
1062
1063Sun May 30 19:52:24 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1064
1065 * acspecific.m4 (AC_SETVBUF_REVERSED): Pass (char *) main to
1066 setvbuf instead of zero.
1067
1068Thu May 27 20:30:53 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1069
1070 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREPARE): Save $* in shell var `configure_args'.
1071 (AC_OUTPUT): Use $configure_args in place of $*.
1072
1073Wed May 26 16:19:51 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1074
1075 * autoconf.texi (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Doc fix.
1076 (Automatic Remaking): Put code fragment in @example ... @end example.
1077
1078Mon May 24 15:46:47 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1079
1080 * autoheader.sh (frob): Redefine AC_CONFIG_HEADER to set shell
1081 variable `config_h'.
1082 (config_h): New variable, initialize to "config.h" before frobbing.
1083 (final output): Write ${config_h}.in.
1084
1085Sat May 22 17:45:19 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1086
1087 * Version 1.4 released.
1088
1089Thu May 20 20:25:45 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1090
1091 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_IDENTITY): New function.
1092 (AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): Use it to fix this; due to a
1093 misunderstanding of m4, this was using its first argument as
1094 the definition.
1095
1096Thu May 20 09:21:55 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1097
1098 * acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA) [find_stack_direction]: Return the
1099 value from the recursive call. If it worked before, it was by luck.
1100 From Bruno Haible <haible@ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de>.
1101
1102Tue May 18 23:40:21 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1103
1104 * acspecific.m4 (AC_STDC_HEADERS): Require AC_PROG_CPP.
1105
1106Mon May 17 18:01:09 1993 Karl Berry (karl@hal.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1107
1108 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Use variables gen_files and
1109 gen_config in the loop that generates the output (Make)files,
1110 instead of hardwiring the filenames.
1111
1112Sat May 15 17:23:19 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1113
1114 * autoconf.sh: Accept `-' to mean read stdin as input.
1115 * autoheader.sh: Likewise.
1116
1117Fri May 14 12:41:02 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1118
1119 * autoheader.sh, acspecific.m4 (AC_PREPARE): If `LANG' environment
1120 variable is set, reset its value to `C'. This is so `tr [...]'
1121 works more portably.
1122
1123Thu May 13 22:56:20 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
1124
1125 * acspecific.m4 (VOID_CLOSEDIR): Test closedir instead of assuming
1126 that it works. E.g. dynix closedir yields garbage, but has no
1127 prototype. Presumably Xenix closedir had the same problem, so
1128 stop special-casing it.
1129
1130Wed May 12 20:25:36 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1131
1132 * acconfig.h: Add HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE.
1133
1134Wed May 12 15:07:36 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1135
1136 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): New macro.
1137
1138 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): Include ctype.h instead of stdio.h.
1139 We want it only to define __stub_* in glibc. Using stdio.h lost
1140 when it contained a conflicting prototype for $1; ctype.h has fewer
1141 prototypes.
1142
1143 * acconfig.h: Add GETGROUPS_T.
1144
1145 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_RANLIB): Use : instead of @: for no-op.
1146 Some braindead make does bizarre magical things with @ in variables.
1147
1148Mon May 10 14:24:27 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1149
1150 * acspecific.m4 (AC_HAVE_POUNDBANG): New feature.
1151
1152 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_OUTPUT): Add more backslashes to character class
1153 in DEFS filter (sigh).
1154
1155Sun May 9 14:04:31 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1156
1157 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_DEFINE_QUOTE): No AC_QUOTE_SED (was innermost).
1158 (AC_HEADER_EGREP, AC_PROGRAM_EGREP, AC_TEST_CPP): Put a \ before
1159 $DEFS in string to be evalled.
1160 (AC_OUTPUT): Run DEFS through a sed filter that quotes things in it
1161 from sed (woo woo!) before writing it into config.status.
1162
1163 * acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA): Use AC_PROGRAM_EGREP to test for [CRAY
1164 && !CRAY2], instead of AC_TEST_PROGRAM. No need to run a program
1165 for this.
1166
1167 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PROGRAM_CHECK): Extract the first word of $2
1168 when looking for it in PATH, so it can be a program name with args.
1169 Omit default assignment if $4 is empty.
1170 Only write verbose msg if $1 was set nonempty.
1171 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_YACC): Pass 'bison -y' (quoted like that)
1172 in list to AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK. Don't test for bison later to add -y
1173 flag.
1174
1175Sat May 8 00:23:58 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1176
1177 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add a trailing newline in
1178 code for AC_COMPILE_CHECK. Otherwise it got spurious failures.
1179
1180 * acspecific.m4 (TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME): New macro.
1181
1182 * Makefile.in (dist): Depend on Makefile. Use gzip instead
1183 of compress. Link files individually instead of en masse;
1184 if a link fails, use `cp -f' on the losing file.
1185
1186 * acspecific.m4 (AC_ALLOCA): Define CRAY_STACKSEG_END (the
1187 name of a function used in alloca.c) for CRAY-1, CRAY X-MP,
1188 and CRAY Y-MP.
1189
1190Fri May 7 15:56:26 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1191
1192 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETLOADAVG): Check for mach/mach.h, but don't
1193 disable nlist checks if found.
1194
1195Fri May 7 04:59:25 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1196
1197 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_INSTALL): Don't look for `install' in
1198 /usr/ucb.
1199
1200Thu May 6 20:41:35 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1201
1202 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): The test program should choke on
1203 #ifdef __stub___$1 as well.
1204 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Make the test program choke on stubs.
1205
1206Wed May 5 20:43:13 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1207
1208 * autoconf.sh ($infile existence check): Fixed test for
1209 nonemptiness of $print_version to not always be true.
1210
1211Wed May 5 17:22:42 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1212
1213 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PREFIX, AC_PROGRAM_CHECK), acspecific.m4
1214 (AC_PROG_INSTALL): If IFS wasn't set initially, give it a
1215 normal default value. Happens on LynxOS (x86), says
1216 Pete Klammer <PKLAMMER@cudnvr.denver.colorado.edu>.
1217
1218Wed May 5 13:22:52 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1219
1220 * acgeneral.m4: Undefine the `shift' builtin.
1221
1222 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_YACC): Use AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK to check for
1223 both bison and yacc, instead of two AC_PROGRAM_CHECK uses.
1224
1225 * autoheader.sh ($# -eq 0): Set var $tmpout to name of temp file,
1226 send stdout there instead of config.h.in.
1227 (just before exit): If $# -eq 0, then move $tmpout to config.h.in
1228 if $status -eq 0, or remove $tmpout otherwise.
1229
1230 * acspecific.m4 (AC_STRCOLL): Rewritten to use a test program that
1231 verifies that `strcoll' does vaguely reasonable ordering.
1232
1233Tue May 4 19:59:00 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1234
1235 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_DOUBLE): Don't explicitely echo
1236 `checking for long double'.
1237
1238Mon May 3 22:04:35 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1239
1240 * acspecific.m4 (AC_GETGROUPS_T): New macro.
1241
1242Sat May 1 22:37:55 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1243
1244 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_DOUBLE): New macro.
1245
1246Wed Apr 28 15:52:42 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1247
1248 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PROGRAM_CHECK): Write msg under --verbose.
1249
1250Thu Apr 22 18:24:40 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1251
1252 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_FUNC_CHECK): Remove spurious `#endif' line at end.
1253
1254 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_WITH): Fix reversed args to patsubst.
1255 Test $with_FOO, not $FOO.
1256
1257Wed Apr 21 18:14:19 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1258
1259 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_QUOTE_TOKEN): New macro.
1260 (AC_DEFINE_QUOTE): Use it.
1261
1262Tue Apr 20 18:02:46 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1263
1264 * acspecific.m4 (AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT): Guess name of lex output file
1265 and do AC_SUBST of `LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT'.
1266 Add `dnl' after calling some autoconf macros.
1267
1268Mon Apr 19 15:46:24 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1269
1270 * acspecific.m4 (AC_MINUS_C_MINUS_O): Do each compile a second time
1271 after testing for the existence of the output. Some compilers
1272 refuse to overwrite an existing .o file with -o, though they will
1273 create one.
1274
1275 * acspecific.m4 (AC_DECLARE_YYTEXT): Changed lex input to two lines
1276 of "%%", not just one.
1277
1278Sat Apr 17 17:26:12 1993 Jim Meyering (meyering@comco.com)
1279
1280 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_COMPILE_CHECK): Don't print `checking for ...'
1281 message if first argument is empty.
1282
1283Sat Apr 17 01:18:41 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1284
1285 * acspecific.m4 (AC_PID_T): provide self.
1286 (AC_VFORK): Require AC_PID_T.
1287
1288Fri Apr 16 11:57:35 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1289
1290 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK): Take optional third arg; if
1291 given, use it as the default value.
1292
1293Thu Apr 15 16:43:45 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1294
1295 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Print a message under --verbose.
1296
1297 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_HAVE_LIBRARY): Use m4's patsubst and translit
1298 instead of running sed and tr at runtime.
1299
1300 * acconfig.h: Add STACK_DIRECTION.
1301
1302Wed Apr 14 17:08:47 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

1307Mon Apr 5 19:02:52 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1308
1309 * acspecific.m4 (AC_LONG_FILE_NAMES): Put test inside a for loop on
1310 several directories: . /tmp $prefix $exec_prefix. Define
1311 HAVE_LONG_FILE_NAMES iff long names win in all those directories.
1312
1313Sun Apr 4 18:38:23 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1314
1315 * Makefile.in (%.info): Removed pattern rule.
1316 (autoconf.info, standards.info): New rules.
