+
+ maint.mk: test further PATH_MAX issues
+ * top/maint.mk (sc_prohibit_path_max_array): Rename...
+ (sc_prohibit_path_max_allocation): ...and also test alloca.
+ Suggested by Jim Meyering.

+
+ maint.mk: add syntax-check to avoid char[PATH_MAX]
+ * top/maint.mk (sc_prohibit_path_max_array): New rule.
+
+ stat: be robust to PATH_MAX definition
+ * lib/stat.c (rpl_stat): Require reasonable PATH_MAX.
+ * modules/stat (Depends-on): Add verify.
+
+ link: work around IRIX bug
+ * m4/link.m4 (gl_FUNC_LINK): Expose the bug.
+ * lib/link.c (rpl_link): Work around it.
+ * tests/test-link.h (test_link): Enhance test.
+ * doc/posix-functions/link.texi (link): Document the bug.
+
+ getopt: silence clang warning
+ * lib/getopt.c (_getopt_internal_r): Avoid unlikely NULL

+
+ perror: test for output mismatch
+ * m4/perror.m4 (gl_FUNC_PERROR): Add test, in order to replace
+ perror on IRIX.
+
+ strerror_r: fix OpenBSD behavior on out-of-range
+ * lib/strerror_r.c (strerror_r): Always use maximal string.
+ * doc/posix-functions/strerror_r.texi (strerror_r): Document it.
+
+ strerror_r: fix OpenBSD behavior on 0
+ * lib/strerror-override.c (strerror_override): Also override 0
+ when needed.
+ * lib/strerror-override.h (strerror_override): Likewise.
+ * lib/strerror.c (strerror): Simplify, now that 0 override is done
+ earlier.
+ * lib/strerror_r.c (strerror_r): Likewise.
+ * m4/strerror.m4 (gl_FUNC_STRERROR): Split detection of 0
+ behavior...
+ (gl_FUNC_STRERROR_0): ...into new macro.
+ * m4/strerror_r.m4 (gl_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Replace strerror_r if 0
+ is overridden.
+ (gl_FUNC_STRERROR_R_WORKS): Avoid extra tests if 0 is broken.
+ * modules/strerror-override (Files): Add strerror.m4.
+ (configure.ac): Also provide override for 0 when needed.
+ * doc/posix-functions/strerror.texi (strerror): Document this.
+ * doc/posix-functions/perror.texi (perror): Likewise.
+
+ perror: adjust array size
+ * modules/perror (Depends-on): Add strerror-override.
+ * lib/perror.c (perror): Use it to avoid magic number.
+
+ strerror-override: reduce size
+ * lib/strerror-override.c (strerror_override): Use fewer lines.

+
+ pathmax: Ensure correct value for PATH_MAX on HP-UX.
+ * lib/pathmax.h (PATH_MAX) [HP-UX]: Define to 1024.

+
+ alloca: port to compilers that can optimize like GCC 4.6.0
+ * lib/alloca.c (find_stack_direction): New signature, taken from
+ Autoconf git. This works with GCC 4.6.0. This code should never
+ be used with GCC 4.6.0 itself, as GCC has alloca, but it might
+ be used with other compilers that optimize as well as GCC 4.6.0 does.
+ (alloca): Adjust to new signature.
+ * m4/alloca.m4 (__AC_LIBOBJ_ALLOCA) [Autoconf version < 2.69]:
+ New macro, which patches Autoconf in a similar way.
+
+ c-stack: stop worrying about stack direction
+ * lib/c-stack.c (find_stack_direction): Remove.
+ (segv_handler): Don't worry about stack direction growth, as it's
+ too much of a pain to configure this correctly, given how compilers
+ are optimizing-away our stack-growth detection code. Instead, assume
+ that any access to just before or just after the stack is OK.
+ * m4/c-stack.m4 (AC_SYS_XSI_STACK_OVERFLOW_HEURISTIC):
+ Don't require AC_FUNC_ALLOCA; no longer needed.
