Important notes
---------------
+2010-09-04 gnulib-tool The option '--import' is no longer cumulative; it
+ now expects the complete list of modules and other
+ options on the command line. If you want to
+ augment (not set) the list of modules, use the
+ new option '--add-import' instead of '--import'.

User visible incompatible changes
---------------------------------
Date Modules Changes
+2011-01-18 multiarch This no longer #defines AA_APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD;
+ instead, use the shell var APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD.
+
+2010-12-10 pipe This module is renamed to spawn-pipe. The include
+ file is renamed to "spawn-pipe.h".
+
+2010-10-05 getdate This module is deprecated. Please use the new
+ parse-datetime module for the replacement
+ function parse_datetime(), or help us write
+ getdate-posix for getdate(). Also, the header
+ "getdate.h" has been renamed "parse-datetime.h",
+ and doc/getdate.texi to doc/parse-datetime.texi.
+
+2010-09-29 sys_wait This module no longer provides the waitpid()
+ function. If you need this function, you now need
+ to request the 'waitpid' module.
+
+2010-09-17 utimens The function gl_futimens is removed, and its
+ signature has been migrated to fdutimens. Callers
+ of gl_futimens should change function name, and
+ callers of fdutimens should swap parameter order.
+
+2010-09-17 fdutimensat This function has a new signature: the fd now comes
+ first instead of the dir/name pair, and a new
+ atflag parameter is added at the end. Old code
+ should rearrange parameters, and pass 0 for atflag.
+
+2010-09-13 regex The module is not guaranteeing anymore support for
+ 64-bit regoff_t on 64-bit systems. The size of
+ regoff_t will always be 32-bit unless the program
+ is being configured --with-included-regex. This
+ may change again in the future once glibc provides
+ this feature as well.
+
+2010-09-12 savedir The fdsavedir function is now deprecated.
+
+2010-09-10 fcntl-h This module now defaults O_CLOEXEC to 0, and
+ it defaults O_EXEC and O_SEARCH to O_RDONLY.
+ Use "#if O_CLOEXEC" instead of "#ifdef O_CLOEXEC".
+
+2010-08-28 realloc This module is deprecated. Use 'realloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-28 calloc This module is deprecated. Use 'calloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-28 malloc This module is deprecated. Use 'malloc-gnu'
+ instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
+
+2010-08-14 memxfrm This module is renamed to amemxfrm. The include
+ file is renamed to "amemxfrm.h". The function is
+ renamed to amemxfrm.
+
+2010-08-09 symlinkat This module now only provides symlinkat; use the
+ new module 'readlinkat' if needed.
+
+2010-07-31 ansi-c++-opt If Autoconf >= 2.66 is used, the 'configure'
+ option is now called --disable-c++ rather than
+ --disable-cxx.
+
+2010-04-02 maintainer-makefile
+ The macro _prohibit_regexp has been revamped into
+ a new macro _sc_search_regexp; custom syntax
+ checks in your cfg.mk will need to be rewritten.
+
+2010-03-28 lib-ignore This module now provides a variable
+ IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES_CFLAGS that you should
+ add to LDFLAGS (when linking C programs only) or
+ CFLAGS yourself. It is no longer added to LDFLAGS
+ automatically.
+
+2010-03-18 pty This module now only declares the pty.h header.
+ Use the new modules 'forkpty' or 'openpty' to
+ get the functions that were previously provided.
+
+2010-03-05 exit This module is deprecated, use 'stdlib' directly
+ instead. It will be removed 2011-01-01.
+
+2009-12-13 sublist The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations. Use
+ module 'xsublist' and include file "gl_xsublist.h"
+ instead.
+
+2009-12-13 list The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
+ Use module 'xlist' and include file "gl_xlist.h"
+ instead.
+
+2009-12-13 oset The module does not define functions any more that
+ call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
+ Use module 'xoset' and include file "gl_xoset.h"
+ instead.
+
2009-12-10 * Most source code files have been converted to
indentation by spaces (rather than tabs). Patches
of gnulib source code needs to be updated.
