* malloc/malloc.c (morecore): Don't attempt recursive realloc of info table when _heaplimit==0 during realloc growing large block. * MakeTAGS (extract): Remove /dev/null from xgettext command line. (text-srcs): New variable: extract only C sources from $(tags_sources). (po/$(domain).pot): Depend on that. If it's empty, cp /dev/null $@ instead of $(extract). * misc/Makefile (headers): Add iovec.h. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/iovec.h: New file. * sysdeps/generic/iovec.h: New file. * misc/sys/uio.h (struct iovec): Type replaced with #include <iovec.h>. * configure.in (NO_UNDERSCORES check): Use AC_TRY_LINK instead of AC_TRY_COMPILE. * misc/sys/cdefs.h [__USE_BSD] (const, signed, volatile): Move these macros inside [! __STDC__]. * stdlib/rpmatch.c: New file. * stdlib/Makefile (routines): Add rpmatch. * stdlib/stdlib.h [__USE_SVID]: Declare rpmatch. * MakeTAGS (MSGJOIN): Variable removed. (po/SYS_libc.pot): Use $(XGETTEXT) instead of $(MSGJOIN).

This directory contains the version 1.09.6 test release of the GNU C Library. Many bugs have been fixed since the last release. Some bugs surely remain. As of this release, the GNU C library has been ported to the following configurations: alpha-dec-osf1 i386-bsd4.3 i386-force_cpu386-none i386-gnu (for Hurd development only) i386-isc2.2 i386-isc3 i386-sco3.2 i386-sco3.2v4 i386-sequent-bsd i386-sysv i386-sysv4 i960-nindy960-none m68k-hp-bsd4.3 m68k-mvme135-none m68k-mvme136-none m68k-sony-newsos3 m68k-sony-newsos4 m68k-sun-sunos4 mips-dec-ultrix4 mips-sgi-irix4 sparc-sun-solaris2 sparc-sun-sunos4 Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port, please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points. Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations, we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is called `glibc-1.09.6-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk [129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port the GNU C library. The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and not to the library bug-reporting address. The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what facilities you want it to make available. Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions.
