Update from main archive 961219cvs/libc-961220
Thu Dec 19 23:28:33 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* resolv/resolv.h: Update from BIND 4.9.5-P1.
* resolv/res_comp.c: Likewise.
* resolv/res_debug.c: Likewise.
* resolv/Banner: Update version number.
Thu Dec 19 20:58:53 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* elf/dlfcn.h: Add extern "C" wrapper.
* io/utime.h: Don't define NULL since this isn't allowed in POSIX.
* io/sys/stat.h: Declare `lstat' only if __USE_BSD ||
__USE_XOPEN_EXTENDED.
* locale/locale.h: Define NULL.
* math/math.c: Don't include <errno.h> to define math errors.
* stdlib/stdlib.h: Likewise.
* posix/unistd.h: Don't declare environ.
* posix/sys/utsname.h (struct utsname): Declare member domainname
as __domainname is !__USE_GNU.
* signal/signal.h: Declare size_t only if __USE_BSD ||
__USE_XOPEN_EXTENDED.
* stdio/stdio.h: Don't declare cuserid when __USE_POSIX, but
instead when __USE_XOPEN.
* string/string.h: Define strndup only if __USE_GNU.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/clock.c: New file.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/timebits.h: Define CLOCKS_PER_SEC as
1000000 per X/Open standard.
* features.h: Add code to recognize _POSIX_C_SOURCE value 199309.
Define __USE_POSIX199309.
* posix/unistd.h: Declare fdatasync only if __USE_POSIX199309.
* time/time.c: Declare nanosleep only if __USE_POSIX199309.
Patches by Rüdiger Helsch <rh@unifix.de>.
* locale/locale.h: Add declaration of newlocale and freelocale.
* new-malloc/Makefile (distibute): Add mtrace.awk.
(dist-routines): Add mcheck and mtrace.
(install-lib, non-lib.a): Define as libmcheck.a.
* new-malloc/malloc.h: Add declaration of __malloc_initialized.
* new-malloc/mcheck.c: New file.
* new-malloc/mcheck.h: New file.
* new-malloc/mtrace.c: New file.
* new-malloc/mtrace.awk: New file.
* posix/unistd.h: Correct prototype for usleep.
* sysdeps/unix/bsd/usleep.c: De-ANSI-declfy. Correct return type.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/usleep.c: Real implementation based on
nanosleep.
* signal/signal.h: Change protoype of __sigpause to take two
arguments. Remove prototype for sigpause. Add two different
macros named sigpause selected when __USE_BSD or __USE_XOPEN
are defined. This is necessary since the old BSD definition
of theis function collides with the X/Open definition.
* sysdeps/posix/sigpause.c: Change function definition to also
fit X/Open definition.
* sysdeps/libm-i387/e_exp.S: Make sure stack is empty when the
function is left.
* sysdeps/libm-i387/e_expl.S: Likewise.
Patch by HJ Lu.
1996-12-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* many, many files: Spelling corrections.
* catgets/catgetsinfo.h (mmapped):
Renamed from mmaped (in struct catalog_info.status).
* mach/err_kern.sub (err_codes_unix), string/stratcliff.c (main):
Fix spelling in message.
* po/libc.pot: Fix spelling in message for `zic'; this anticipates
a fix in the tzcode distribution.
Wed Dec 18 15:48:02 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* time/strftime.c: Implement ^ flag to cause output be converted
to use upper case characters.
* time/zic.c: Update from ADO tzcode1996n.
Wed Dec 18 14:29:24 1996 Erik Naggum <erik@naggum.no>
* time/strftime.c (add): Don't change global `i' until all is over.
Define NULL is not already defined.
Tue Dec 17 09:49:03 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
* libio/iovsprintf.c (_IO_vsprintf): Change `&sf' to `&sf._sbf._f'
to avoid the need for a cast.
* libio/iovsscanf.c (_IO_vsscanf): Likewise.
* sunrpc/rpc/xdr.h: Add prototype for xdr_free.
