2002-06-07  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_STAT): Check for sys/param.h and sys/mount.h.
        They're needed at least for NetBSD 1.5.2.

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.

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

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

        (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.
        * progtest.m4: Likewise
        * isc-posix.m4: Decrement serial number to sync with gettext.
        * glibc21.m4: Likewise.

        * libintl.m4: Remove.  No longer used.

2001-09-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX): Check for declaration of
        strtoimax.
        * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Check for declaration of
        strtoumax.

2001-09-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * chown.m4, fstypename.m4, getgroups.m4, gettimeofday.m4,
        * jm-mktime.m4, lstat.m4, malloc.m4, memcmp.m4, mkdir-slash.m4,
        * nanosleep.m4, putenv.m4, readdir.m4, realloc.m4, rename.m4,
        * st_dm_mode.m4, stat.m4, strerror_r.m4, timespec.m4, utimbuf.m4,
        * utimes.m4: Use AC_DEFINE rather than AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED,
        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: Require it.

2001-09-15  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4: Check for help2man.

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

        * host-os.m4 (UTILS_HOST_OS): New file/macro.
        The body, by Paul Eggert, was moved here from configure.in.
        * jm-macros.m4: Require UTILS_HOST_OS.

2001-09-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

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

2001-09-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD): Check for limits.h and
        sys/param.h, as pathmax.h includes them.

2001-09-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD.
        (jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD): New macro.

        * getcwd.m4: New file.

2001-09-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for canonicalize_file_name.
        Used by df.

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

        Simplify code, partly by assuming autoconf 2.52 semantics.

        * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove uintmax_t.m4.

        * inttypes.m4 (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.52.
        (jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H): Remove; now done by autoconf in 2.52.
        All uses removed.
        (jm_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T):
        Move AC_REQUIRE to next-to-top level, to avoid confusion.
        Use 2.52's AC_CHECK_TYPE instead of merely looking for the header.
        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Don't require jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H.
        * 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>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_EXCLUDE.
        (jm_PREREQ_EXCLUDE): New macro.

2001-08-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX.

        * xstrtoimax.m4: New file.
        * xstrtoumax.m4: Add comments explaining why we
        AC_REPLACE_FUNCS(strtol).

2001-06-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * inttypes.m4: Add AC_PREREQ(2.13).
        (jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H): Test for intmax_t, too.
        (jm_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T): New macro.
        (jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T): Moved here from uintmax_t.m4.

        * longlong.m4 (jm_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG): New macro.

        * longlong.m4: Renamed from ulonglong.m4.
        * inttypes.m4: Renamed from inttypes_h.m4.
        * uintmax_t.m4: Removed.

        Also check for mbsinit.  Needed for SCO 3.2v5.0.2.
        Also include <string.h>; this is where AIX 3.2.5 declares wcwidth.
        Also check for iswcntrl, used for wcwidth fallback.
        Use AC_TRY_COMPILE to emulate AC_CHECK_DECLS, for portability
        to Autoconf 2.13.

2001-08-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Use `#include', not `@%:@include',
        as it was in the original.  Reported by Paul Eggert.

2001-07-16  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * gettimeofday.m4: New file.
        Prompted by a report from Bernhard Baehr.

2001-07-15  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * Makefile.am.in (Makefile.am): Remove most of the unlocked-io.h stuff.
        Now it's in ../Makefile.cfg.

2001-07-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * Makefile.am.in (glibc-io.struct): New target.  Rework the code
        that generates jm-glibc-io.m4 so that it doesn't trigger any make
        distcheck failure.

2001-07-02  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        The following changes were prompted by suggestions from Bruno Haible.

        * jm-glibc-io.m4n: New file, the template from which jm-glibc-io.m4
        is now generated.
        * Makefile.am.in (Makefile.am): Include jm-glibc-io.m4n in emitted
        definition of EXTRA_DIST.
        (Makefile.am): Emit the dependency, `all-local: jm-glibc-io.m4' to
        ensure that the generated file is created/updated whenever the list
        of $(unlocked_functions) is changed.
        (jm-glibc-io.m4): New rule.
        (unlocked-io.h): New rule -- currently unused.

2001-06-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * regex.m4 (jm_INCLUDED_REGEX): Use a quadrigraph to represent an
        unmatched right bracket, rather than kludging it with an extra,
        falsely-matching quote in a comment.  Patch by Akim Demaille.

2001-05-27  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for ut_type in struct utmpx.
        Check for ut_type in struct utmp.

2001-05-22  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Don't use AC_LIBOBJ(strftime),
        now that we use the package-supplied version unconditionally.
        (jm_FUNC_STRFTIME): Don't replace strftime, for the same reason.

2001-05-21  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * regex.m4: Change a couple backticks to single quotes to avoid shell
        syntax errors.

2001-05-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME):
        Don't bother to check library strftime, since
        we'll be using our own my_strftime function anyway.
        Define my_strftime instead of strftime.

2001-05-15  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * regex.m4: Use proper quoting so brackets appear in the test program.
        Reported by, and with help from, Bruno Haible.

2001-05-13  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (major_t, minor_t): Define to unsigned int if undefined.

        doesn't interfere.

2001-04-21  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <duret_g@epita.fr>

        * ftruncate.m4: Check for chsize.
        Link with ftruncate.o unconditionally if ftruncate is missing.
        This was required when cross-compiling to i586-mingw32msvc.

2001-03-24  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.49d.

2001-02-25  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use mkstemp replacement if the system
        lacks mkstemp.  Compile our own tempname.c if we compile our own
        mkstemp.c, as mkstemp relies on tempname.

2001-03-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
        AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.

2001-02-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.

2001-02-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
        getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
        further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
        UnixWare 7.1.1.

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

2001-02-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * mbrtowc.m4: New file, defining jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC.
        * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH):
        Use jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC, not AC_CHECK_FUNCS(mbrtowc).
        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Likewise.

2001-02-07  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * regex.m4 (jm_INCLUDED_REGEX): Add a test for the latest bug.

2001-02-05  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.14d (not yet released), because
        it includes the patch required for `large file' support with at least
        HP-UX's 10.20 /bin/cc.

2001-02-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of
        AS_IF, now that it works once again (mysteriously).
        * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.

2001-01-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        Don't use filenames that are 8.3-equivalent to "conftest" on DOS.
        * chown.m4: Rename conftestchown to conftest.chown.
        * rename.m4: s/conftestdir/conftest.d1/ and s/conftestdir2/conftest.d2/.
        * utimes.m4: s/conftestdata/conftest.data/
        Inspired by Pavel Roskin's change in autoconf.

2001-01-27  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Open-code what was
        a use of AS_IF.
        * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.

2001-01-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Check for stddef.h, now that
        quotearg.c includes it.

2001-01-15  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

        * iconv.m4 (jm_ICONV): Also check whether the iconv declaration
        has const.

2001-01-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        Be sure that headers are checked before used in code compiled
        for the type checks.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove all header checks.
        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 check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.

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

2001-01-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use AS_IF, not AS_IFELSE,
        for autoconf-2.49c.
        * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.

2001-01-14  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
        foo and bar.  Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
        Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.
        Remove conftestdir{,2} before trying to create the directory.
        Make the entire configure script fail if the mkdir fails.

2001-01-02  Volker Borchert  <bt@teknon.de>

        * rename.m4: New file.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require vb_FUNC_RENAME.

        expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
        so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.

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

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
        on systems with utmpx.h.  It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
        ut_user member.  Reported by Andreas Jaeger.

        * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
        They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.
        (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for grp.h and pwd.h.
        Reported by Andreas Jaeger.

2000-12-25  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <duret_g@epita.fr>

        * libintl.m4 (AM_WITH_NLS): When using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR,
        prepend $(top_srcdir) to the value of MKINSTALLDIRS so that it
        can be used in subdirectories.

2000-12-26  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Rewrite (though it's still a stub) to work better
        with autoheader.

2000-12-17  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

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

        * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
        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.

2000-12-02  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * off_t-format.m4 (OFF_T_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING): New file/macro.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): require it.

2000-11-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for stdint.h.

2000-11-30  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_DIRNAME): New macro.
        * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memrchr.

2000-09-18  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * getloadavg.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Restore the initial value of LIBS.
        Otherwise, everyone ends up linking with -lelf for some configurations.
        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.

        * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T): Define mbstate_t to be int,
        not char, for compatibility with glibc 2.1.3 strftime.c.

2000-07-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH): Check for wcwidth declaration.

2000-07-23  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Check for declarations of these, too:
        getgrgid, getpwuid, getuid.

2000-07-16  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

        * mbswidth.m4: New file.
        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Call jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH.

2000-07-14  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Require jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T.

2000-07-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        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.

        * gnu-source.m4: Output to confdefs.h directly.
        Suggestion from Akim Demaille.

2000-07-09  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add a test to see if -lm is required
        to link seq.  If so, set SEQ_LIBM to -lm.  From Bruno Haible.

        * gnu-source.m4 (AC__GNU_SOURCE): New file/macro.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require it.

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.

2000-07-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Port to autoconf 2.13.
        Add AC_CHECK_HEADERS(stdlib.h), since we use HAVE_STDLIB_H.

        * mbstate_t.m4: Also define mbstate_t, if necessary.

        * chown.m4: Replace each use of AC_SUBST(LIBOBJS)/LIBOBJS=... with
        AC_LIBOBJ(function_name).
        * chown.m4: Likewise.

2000-07-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * ls-mntd-fs.m4: Remove a `FIXME' comment and fix the associated
        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.

2000-07-01  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * 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.
        Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS, now that autoconf requires that.

2000-05-26  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

        * glibc21.m4: New file.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_GLIBC21.

2000-05-28  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (AC_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK): Rename from
        jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
        * stat.m4: Likewise.
        * lstat.m4: Likewise.
        * lstat-slash.m4: Remove file (absorbed into autoconf).

        * jm-macros.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Rename from jm_FUNC_STRERROR_R.
        * strerror_r.m4: Remove file (absorbed into autoconf).

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,

        * lstat.m4: Likewise.

2000-05-20  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

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

2000-05-09  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * gettext.m4: Rename this...
        * libintl.m4: ...to this.

2000-05-06  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add atexit.
        (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add strnlen.

        * rmdir-errno.m4 (fetish_FUNC_RMDIR_NOTEMPTY): New macro and file.

        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.
        * lib-check.m4: When checking for struct spwd.sp_pwdp, also include
        <shadow.h>.  Reported by Dragos Harabor.

2000-05-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add strndup.

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.

2000-04-18  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

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

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.
        Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.

2000-04-03  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.

        * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from
        textutils/configure.in).  Suggestion from Paul Eggert.
        (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add nl_langinfo.  (also from textutils/configure.in)

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.
        From Marco Franzen.

2000-02-02  Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>

        * codeset.m4: New file.
        * iconv.m4: New file.
        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.

2000-03-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
        for lib/localcharset.c.

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

        * regex.m4: Make sure re_compile_pattern accepts patterns like `{1'.

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.

        * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.

2000-02-27  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * check-decl.m4: Add getenv to the list.

2000-02-23  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * check-decl.m4: Now that we have the new AC_CHECK_DECLS, use it
        in place of my hack.

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
        `[' and `]' and remove uses of `changequote'.
        (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Likewise.
        (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Likewise.
        * gettext.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Likewise.
        * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Remove now-unnecessary use
        of changequote.
        * regex.m4 (jm_INCLUDED_REGEX): Likewise.
        * readdir.m4 (jm_FUNC_READDIR): Likewise
        * 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.

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

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT): Fix typo that resulted in no
        definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
        Reported by Eli Zaretskii.

2000-01-31  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * 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.
        Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
        and struct utmp.

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

        * lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from
        fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).

2000-01-28  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
        from the missing script.  Suggestion from François Pinard.

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

        * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
        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).
        (AC_SUBST(POW_LIBM)): Likewise.
        (AC_SUBST(DF_PROG)): Moved from fileutils/configure.in.

2000-01-22  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * jm-macros.m4: Call AC_PROG_CC_STDC just before AC_C_CONST.

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Add wctype.h.

        * jm-macros.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add checks from fileutils'
        configure.in
        (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Likewise for sh-utils.
        (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Likewise for textutils.
        Merge the three lists of headers.

        * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT): New macro.  Parts moved here
        from fileutils' configure.in.

        * decl.m4: Remove kludgy `test -z $ac_...AC_CHECK_HEADERS(...)' code.
        Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.

        * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
        Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
        (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
        (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
        (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.

2000-01-19  Jim Meyering  <meyering@lucent.com>

        * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.
        Use AC_HEADER_TIME.  Volker Borchert reported that OpenBSD-2.3/sparc
        defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>

        * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
