Update.cvs/libc-ud-971103
1997-11-04 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* manual/filesys.texi: Correct description of return value for
readdir_r.
* sysdeps/unix/readdir_r.c (__readdir_r): Return value of errno
not -1 in error case.
* sysdeps/generic/readdir_r.c (__readdir_r): Return ENOSYS not -1.
Reported by Jim Meyering <meyering@eng.ascend.com>.
1997-11-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* strftime.c: Use host's underlying strftime to access
locale-specific info. This is useful e.g. when building GNU
Emacs under Solaris 2.6.
(weekday_name, month_name): Omit if HAVE_STRFTIME.
(my_strftime): New macro, which names the strftime function that
this source file produces.
(strftime): #undef if emacs is defined; this works around Emacs 20.2's
method of compiling with -Dstrftime=emacs_strftime.
Also, declare as a function returning size_t, for similar reasons.
(my_strftime): If HAVE_STRFTIME, use underlying strftime to handle
locale-dependent formats like %a and %Ec.
1997-11-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* strftime.c (memcpy_lowcase, memcpy_uppcase, strftime):
Ensure that args to islower and isupper are valid unsigned
chars, even if char is signed.
1997-11-04 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* assert/Makefile (headers): Add assert.h, necessary after patch
to Makefiles.
* ctype/Makefile (headers): Likewise.
* pwd/Makefile (headers): Likewise.
* grp/Makefile (headers): Likewise.
Patch by NIIBE Yutaka <gniibe@mri.co.jp>.
1997-11-04 03:08 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* glibcbug.in: Add information about configured target.
Patch by Zack Weinberg <zack@rabi.phys.columbia.edu>.
* elf/dl-lookup.c (_dl_lookup_versioned_symbol): Be prepared for
empty string as `reference_name' parameter.
* elf/rtld.c: Don't set real program name in l_name of main object.
* manual/creature.texi: Apply Paul Eggert's patch for better
_POSIX_C_SOURCE description.
* stdlib/strfmon.c: Fix numerous bugs in formatting.
* time/strptime.c [%Y]: Treat all years, not only those which fit
in time_t.
[%Oy]: Really store value.
Patches by Paul Eggert.
* wcsmbs/wchar.h: Fix documentation bugs. Declare wcsdup only
is __USE_GNU.
1997-11-03 02:48 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* sysdeps/generic/bits/errno.h: Remove all error definitions. This
is only meant as a stub.
1997-10-31 Andreas Jaeger <aj@arthur.rhein-neckar.de>
* sysdeps/standalone/bits/errno.h: Copied from
sysdeps/generic/bits/errno.h and added all know error codes that
are used in glibc.
1997-11-03 02:23 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* sysdeps/generic/make_siglist.c: Add comment to clarify use and
make sure the correct _NSIG value is used.
Patch by Klaus Espenlaub <kespenla@student.informatik.uni-ulm.de>.
1997-11-03 00:20 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* intl/localealias.c (read_alias_file): Correct handling of line
reader which sometimes skipped complete lines (PR 205).
Optimize a bit by using mempcpy.
1997-11-02 16:59 Philipp Thomas <kthomas@gwdg.de>
* intl/localealias.c (read_alias_file): Correctly set map[].value
instead of overwriting map[].alias
1997-11-02 15:32 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* libc.map: Add _IO_flockfile and _IO_funlockfile.
Suggested by H.J. Lu <hjl@lucon.org>.
1997-11-02 15:17 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* elf/dl-error.c (_dl_signal_error): Use _strerror_internal instead
of strerror.
* assert/assert-perr.c: Use _strerror_internal directly instead of
__strerror_r.
Suggested by Joe Keane <jgk@jgk.org>.
1997-11-01 16:46 Zack Weinberg <zack@rabi.phys.columbia.edu>
* configure.in: Check for gcc-2.7.2 -pipe bug and hack around it
(PR 245).
1997-11-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* time/strptime.c (strptime_internal): Fix bug: %Oy forgot to
assign tm_year. Do not restrict %Y to years less than 2037 even
on 32-bit time_t hosts, as strptime returns an int tm_year, not a
time_t, and it's possible for programs to use the year without
having to use time_t.
non-directories in the list (PR 203).
