	ltmain.in: defer warn dependency to static library

	When linking old library to any libtool target that is not an
	executable, libtool warns that it might not be portable, in particular
	because shared libraries need PIC from the static library to be working.

	However, when adding an old library as dependency to a static libtool
	library, there is no linkage, and thus no portability issue, so there's
	no reason to warn. If the static libtool library is then linked to a
	shared library, the dependency will be forwarded and the warning will
	happen at this time.

	tests: extend archive-in-archive with dependency forwarding check

	Verify that the old library dependency is recorded in
	dependency_libs of the target .la file, and that an executable
	linked against the target can resolve symbols from the forwarded
	dependency.

	ltmain.in: ensure old libraries are not archived

	Previously, adding a static archive library, aka. old library, as a
	dependency of a new libtool library compiled as a static archive (be it
	a convenience library or an installed static library) resulted in the
	dependency archive being added into the target archive as-is.

	However, linkers are usually not able to use nested archive as-is. It
	results in errors like these on Linux and Darwin at least:

	    /usr/bin/ld: ./.libs/libfoo.a: member ./.libs/libfoo.a(libbar.a) in
	    archive is not an object

	or

	    /usr/bin/nm: libbar.a: file format not recognized

	With libfoo.a being the static libtool target and libbar.a being the
	nested/linked static library.

	Libtool has a quite close behaviour with convenience libraries, where
	the content (objects) of the convenience library are extracted and added
	back into the new target, but that´s mostly a libtool creation.

	The static dependencies should not be "linked" into other static
	libraries as there should not be linking involved, and we don´t want to
	potentially duplicate symbols like done for the convenience libraries.

	Instead, keep them in the dependency_libs of the new libtool archive
	created and forward them until we link a shared library or an
	executable. We do need to ensure they are referenced with absolute path
	since we can link from a different folder than the one it was referenced
	from.

	We also need to filter out the shared library case since we don't want
	to include the static archives in dependencies again.

	The test was marked XFAIL since 2010 because the fix for the
	nested-archive bug was incomplete. Now that ltmain.in properly
	forwards old library dependencies instead of archiving them,
	the test passes: remove the AT_XFAIL_IF and correct the
	foo.$OBJEXT assertion (objects from the dependency must NOT
	appear in the target archive).

	Absolute paths are forwarded as-is like above.
	Relative paths are transformed into absolute using pwd.

	The old deplibs are not appended if they have been linked
	into a shared library output already.

	ltmain.in: overlinking dependency_libs when linking against a libtool library

	m4/libtool.m4: fix emscripten CXX postdeps using non-PIC sysroot

	Commit d8a934458b251b465b7d31da9ba9148a128a146d introduced shared
	libraries support for emscripten, using -sSIDE_MODULE=1, but the CXX
	dependency detection in _LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS will only try to use
	`-shared` link option to discover implicit dependencies.

	The libraries and search paths reported by em++ differ depending on
	whether -sSIDE_MODULE=2 is passed:

	  em++ -shared -v conftest.o:
	    -L<sysroot>/lib/wasm32-emscripten  (<-- non-PIC)
	       -lhtml5... (other -l flags)

	  em++ -sSIDE_MODULE=2 -shared -v conftest.o
	    -L<sysroot>/lib/wasm32-emscripten/pic  (<-- PIC)
	       (no -l flags)

	Without -sSIDE_MODULE=2, the detected postdeps contain the non-PIC
	sysroot path and system libraries. These get injected into the CXX
	shared library link line before emcc can append the PIC sysroot,
	causing wasm-ld to resolve system libraries from non-PIC archives,
	typically in VLC build system:

	    error: R_WASM_MEMORY_ADDR_LEB cannot be used against symbol;
	           recompile with -fPIC

	We resolved the issue in VLC by patching the postdeps but they were not
	generated properly in the first place.

	Fix by overriding output_verbose_link_cmd for emscripten in
	_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG. The override passes -sSIDE_MODULE=2, matching what
	archive_cmds actually uses at link time so that the detected paths point
	to the PIC sysroot.

	libtool.m4: Avoid a broken AC_TRY_EVAL macro

	As said in the Autoconf source, the AC_TRY_EVAL macro is dangerous and
	undocumented, and should not be used.
	In particular, the one related to nm yields binary data in the config.log
	file with dash, where "echo \\1" (echo with the argument \1) produces the
	control character ^A instead of the usual \1 with most shells (POSIX says
	that the result is implementation-defined). See:
	  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=910076
	This patch attempts to replace this AC_TRY_EVAL occurrence by code with
	similar behavior, but using $ECHO instead of echo in order to avoid the
	backslash issue.

	libtool: Handle unset $multilib for Windows targets.

	If `multilib` is unset (which it apparently is by default), the output
	from running a `configure` script contains lines like the following:
	```
	checking dynamic linker characteristics... ../configure: line 26791: test: yes: unary operator expected
	Win32 ld.exe
	```

	The additional output is not a fatal error. But it could be irritating.

	Avoid the unexpected output from `test` by making sure `=` is used as a
	binary operator.

	* m4/libtool.m4: Prepend "x" on both sides of a comparison with `test`
	and the operator `=`.

	libtool: Correct DLL Installation Path for mingw

	When building native GCC for the x86_64-w64-mingw32 host, the
	compiler copies its library DLLs to the `bin` directory. However,
	in the case of a multilib configuration, both 32-bit and 64-bit
	libraries end up in the same `bin` directory, leading to conflicts
	where 64-bit DLLs are overridden by their 32-bit counterparts.

	This patch addresses the issue by adjusting the installation path
	for the libraries. Specifically, it installs the libraries to
	separate directories: `lib` for 64-bit and `lib32` for 32-bit. This
	behavior aligns with how libraries are installed when creating an
	x86_64-w64-mingw32 cross-compiler without copying them to the `bin`
	directory if it is a multilib build.

	* m4/libtool.m4: Install DLL to $(libdir), not $(libdir)/bin, if
	  multilib build.

	m4: Fix Wstrict-prototypes warnings

	* m4/libtool.m4: Specify void for main function prototypes.
	* m4/ltdl.m4: Specify void for main and fnord function prototypes.

	testsuite.at: Replaced $as_echo with AS_ECHO

	libtool: Fix documentation for demo compile mode commands

	main.c:1:10: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
	    1 | #include <config.h>
	      |          ^~~~~~~~~~

	adding the -lasan flag to libtool.

	libtoolize: always copy config-h.in like aclocal.m4

	When running `libtoolize --ltdl`, a symlink to the source config-h.in
	is used rather than a copy of the file.  This causes the build system
	to look at its old timestamp relative to the other generated files
	that are copied in, and then try to regenerate things, and update the
	config-h.in timestamp by touching the symlink (which will dereference
	things).  This breaks `make distcheck` because when a few tests run
	that invoke `libtoolize --ltdl --install` w/out --copy, and then try
	to build the project, automake's rules trigger autoheader regen, and
	then update the timestamp, which updates the underlying file, and then
	causes libtool's own files to get out of sync.  So the next time make
	is run in the tree, it tries to regenerate the source files, and fails
	as the source tree is read-only.

	Change libtoolize to always copying the header over during install.
	It's not clear to me whether this is 100% the right answer, but it
	shouldn't make things worse beyond missing a case to use a symlink.
	We probably can't avoid this as long as aclocal.m4 itself is copied
	in instead of symlinked.  This changed between v2.4.2 and v2.4.3 in
	commit 4e671d6ba69c889b1f9aee12de6c504d26dc6514 ("libtoolize:
	simplify file-copying and -linking call-graph.").

	Example failure log:

	$ make distcheck
	...

	make[3]: *** [Makefile:2387: ../../libltdl/Makefile.in] Error 1

	We can see this in old-m4-iface.at:AC_WITH_LTDL which doesn't use
	--copy with libtoolize:

	bootstrap: don't reset config-h.in timestamp newer than configure

	Various autotools rules will compare the timestamps of config-h.in
	and configure, and if config-h.in is newer than configure, attempt
	to regenerate it.  This breaks `make distcheck` which we need to
	produce new releases.  So update config-h.in timestamp, but only
	up to the configure file.

	The breakage is caught because distcheck makes source dirs read-only
	before running.

	libtool: fix Solaris 11 builds

	Trying to build clamav on Solaris 11.3 with the Oracle C compiler,
	I got the following error:

	libtool: error: not configured to extract global symbols from dlpreopened files

	I would have expected a build to use dlopen rather than the preopen
	fallback so looked for related configure tests that were perhaps
	returning the wrong answer.

	The global_symbol_pipe being empty seemed a likely culprit.
	the last three lines of nm -p on the conftest.o in this test are:

	0000000032 T main
	0000000016 T nm_test_func
	0000000001 C nm_test_var

	On Solaris 10, I'd get a D instead of a C. Adding C to the list of
	characters in the symcode variable and building again resulted in a
	successful build. I've attached a patch to add this C.

	libtool: Use $LD when checking for --whole-archive

	Using `$CC -print-prog-name=ld` will always use the `ld` linker. We
	should instead be using the $LD variable so that we use the proper
	linker.

	There is already another part of the code that does this same check,
	so I just copy/pasted the if line.

	libtool: use -Fe with MSVC to specify filename

	This avoids a deprecation warning with current versions of MSVC, by
	replacing the -o flag with -Fe. -Fe is documented as supported at

	libtool: fix empty "-L" in compiler_lib_search_path

	If the compiler places a space between "-L" and the path, the path will
	be skipped and only an empty "-L" will appear in the final
	compiler_lib_search_path. This will cause the first library in postdeps
	following compiler_lib_search_path to be accidentally skipped.

	* libtool.m4: Fixed string comparison by adding missing 'x's.

2024-01-15  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>

	Fix shared library support on Android.

	This patch fixes two problems:
	1) A libtool library created with the -release option and no -version-info
	   option was, when built with --enable-shared, installed without the
	   symlink libNAME.so -> libNAME-RELEASE.so. This led to subsequent failures
	   during "make install" of shared libraries that depend on it.
	2) Executables were created without a RUNPATH property. These executables
	   then did not find their shared libraries when run.

	* m4/libtool.m4: On Android, fix library_names_spec and
	hardcode_libdir_flag_spec.

	libtool: Add support for flang (Fortran LLVM-based) compilers

	This patch adds support for flang compilers.  Some specific flags
	are needed so these compilers must be handled in a specific way.
	By default, the compiler is called 'flang', but ARM releases their
	own flang-based compiler called 'armflang'.

	Because of the current lack of flang support in libtool, the
	generated 'libtool' must be manually modified after 'configure' is
	invoked.  Such a process is for example described on ARM web site
	(it involves the Open MPI library).

	Url: https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?9442

	* m4/libtool.m4: Handle *flang.

2024-01-14  Sam James  <sam@gentoo.org>

	ltmain.in: Pass through -fdiagnostics-color, -frecord-gcc-switches

	* -fdiagnostics-color: who doesn't like color? No reason to strip it. This
	  makes the link phase stick out like a sore thumb if there's warnings emitted.

	* -frecord-gcc-switches: we use it in Gentoo to check if a package respects
	  *FLAGS. Note that we do not need to include -grecord-gcc-switches explicitly
	  here as -g* is already whitelisted.

	* build-aux/ltmain.in: Handle -fdiagnostics-color* & -frecord-gcc-switches.

	So make sure autoheader run before autoconf to avoid this race.

	GNU grep 3.8 warns about some regular expressions that POSIX says have

	m4/libtool.m4: export AIX TLS symbols

	TLS symbols in AIX display a new, different symbol type in nm output.
	Libtool explicitly creates a list of exported symbols for AIX shared
	libraries using nm and does not recognize the new TLS symbols, so
	those symbols are not exported in AIX shared libraries.

	This is a regression for TLS support on AIX where TLS symbols or GCC
	"emultls" symbols were listed as global data and exported.

	This patch updates libtool.m4 export_symbols_cmds for AIX in two
	locations so that global symbols labeled with "L" for TLS are included
	in the export list.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (export_symbols_cmds) [AIX]: Add global TLS "L" symbols.

	syntax-check: fix sed syntax errors

	Multi-line single-quoted shell arguments defined within makefile
	rules end up having the trailing backslash.  This caused problem
	in some sc_* rules as GNU sed does not interpret trailing
	backslash the same way as SHELL (== appending next line).
	Switching to double quotes means that SHELL will remove the
	trailing backslash for subsequent sed call.  This silences a lot
	of GNU sed warnings seen before like:

	  sed: -e expression #1, char 96: unterminated address regex

	* cfg.mk (sc_libtool_m4_cc_basename): Use $(SED) instead of sed,

	funclib: refactor quoting methods a bit

	From now we have two basic functions to perform string quoting for
	shell evaluation -- 'func_quote_arg' to quote one argument and
	'func_quote' which takes list of arguments to be quoted.

	New function name-scheme should be more descriptive (previously we
	called func_quote_for_eval with one argument and also multiple
	arguments, while we had confusing
	$func_quote_for_eval_unquoted_result which is redundant for
	multiple-arguments call).

	New abstraction allowed us (in an easy way) to implement
	bash-specific optimization for quoting  (using
	'printf -v VARNAME %q "$value"', suggested by Eric Blake), this
	construct may be used on those places where we don't care much
	about the result aesthetics (its thus not useful for '*.la'
	generation or for error printing).

	* gl/build-aux/funclib.sh (func_append_quoted): Use
	func_quote_arg internally (kept in 'pretty' mode for now).
	(func_quote): Made to be "main" high-level quoting method taking
	list of arguments to be quoted into single command.  It replaces
	func_quote_for_{expand,eval}.
	(func_quote_portable): Implements quoting in shell, falling back
	to portable sed call (rare cases).
	(func_quotefast_eval): New internal function using fast
	bash-specific construct, falling back to func_quote_portable for
	non-Bash scripts.
	(func_quote_arg): New function to quote one argument.
	(func_quote_for_eval): Removed.  All callers changed to call
	func_quote.
	(func_quote_for_expand): Likewise.
	* bootstrap: Sync with funclib.sh and options-parser.

	libtool: optimizing options-parser hooks

	Its not necessary to (re)func_quote_for_eval in each function in
	the hook hierarchy.  Usually it is enough if the leaf function
	does func_quote_for_eval and its caller just re-uses the
	<CALLEE>_return variable.

	This is follow up for the previous commit.

	* gl/build-aux/options-parser (func_run_hooks): Propagate
	$EXIT_SUCCESS return code down to caller if *any* hook succeeded.
	Never re-quote the result -- either the arguments are left
	untouched, or the options have already been properly quoted by
	succeeding hooks.
	(func_parse_options): Quote '$@' and return $EXIT_SUCCESS only if
	we changed something.
	(func_validate_options): Likewise.
	(func_options_prep): Likewise.
	(func_options_finish): New hook-caller for 'func_options' hooks.
	(func_options): Propagate return value down to top-level caller,
	but pay attention we have always set $func_options_result.
	* build-aux/ltmain.in (libtool_options_prep): Quote '$@' and
	return $EXIT_SUCCESS only if we changed something.
	(libtool_parse_options): Likewise.
	* bootstrap: Sync gl/build-aux/with option-parser.

	gnulib: sync with upstream

	With gnulib commit f8fe25fab60e3, AM_PROG_AR is called
	automatically from GL_EARLY macro, which brings its definition
	into aclocal.m4.  Sufficiently new enough AM_PROG_AR uses guarding
	AC_BEFORE([AM_PROG_AR], [LT_INIT]) call.

	Existence of 'LT_INIT' string inside aclocal.m4 however broke
	bootstrap's self-defensive libtool_check_for_bogus_macros

	* build-aux/no-bogus-m4-defines: New aux helper using m4 for

	ARFLAGS: use 'cr' instead of 'cru' by default

	In some GNU/Linux distributions people started to compile 'ar'
	binary with --enable-deterministic-archives (binutils project).
	That, however, in combination with our previous long time working
	default AR_FLAGS=cru causes warnings on such installations:
	ar: `u' modifier ignored since `D' is the default (see `U')

	The 'u' option (at least with GNU binutils) did small optimization
	during repeated builds because it instructed 'ar' to not
	open/close unchanged *.o files and to rather read their contents
	from old archive file.  However, its removal should not cause a
	big performance hit for usual workflows.

	Distributions started using --enable-deterministic-archives
	knowing that it would disable the 'u', just to rather have a bit
	more deterministic builds.

	Also, to justify this change a bit more, keeping 'u' in ARFLAGS
	could only result in many per-project changes to override
	Libtool's ARFLAGS default, just to silent such warnings.

	Fixes bug#19967.  Reported by Eric Blake.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Default AR_FLAGS to 'cr'.
	(_LT_REQUIRED_DARWIN_CHECKS): Use $AR_FLAGS instead 'cru' string.

	a71b3490639831ca.  Even though ARFLAGS is younger, it sounds like
	better name according GNU Coding Standards.

	Related to bug#20082.

	libtoolize: fix infinite recursion in m4

	Some projects use this construct in configure.ac:

	  m4_define([version], m4_include([version]))
	  pkg_version=version

	When the m4_include builtin is undefined (as was done in
	libtoolize and extract-trace scripts), the call to this 'version'
	macro enters an infinite recursion (until ENOMEM).  So rather
	re-define all potentially dangerous macros by empty strings,
	suggested by Eric Blake.

	While we are on it, merge the macro-"blacklist" with similar list
	implemented in gettext, except for 'm4_esyscmd'.  It's kept
	defined because we already trace AC_INIT macro for package
	version, while it is often specified by
	m4_esyscmd(git-version-gen).  Similarly to m4_include, m4_esyscmd
	might be opt-in-blacklisted in future.

	libtool: respect config.site LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH

	Libtool generator code needs to remember the configure time
	LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH content to allow config.status properly
	instantiate default LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH libtool run-time value;
	Thats because config.status has no idea what the contents of
	config.site file is (by default).
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Use the _LT_DECLared
	$configure_time_lt_sys_library_path variable as the default for

	libtool: support LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH for adjusting bad guesses.

	Revert 8728e07 and 440fee6.
	Some GNU/Linux distributions install libraries into /lib64 (or
	/usr/lib64) on 64-bit machines, while /lib (/usr/lib
	respectively) stays for multilib variant.  Other distributions
	keep /usr/lib for 64-bit variant and reserve other directory for
	multilib. Detection of what approach a given system uses is
	difficult, however, especially because Glibc's ldconfig does not
	report the full and correct list of search paths. Allow the user
	to adjust Libtools heuristically determined search paths with
	the new LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable at both
	compile-time, when libtool is called, and at configure time.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PREPARE_MUNGE_PATH_LIST): Define a new
	function to munge a libtool path list according to a user
	supplied colon-delimited path.
	(_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Require _LT_PREPARE_MUNGE_PATH_LIST.
	Mark LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH as precious to autoconf (to survive
	automatic "autoreconf").
	Call the new func_munge_path_list function on
	sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec - this propagates results to
	generated libtool script.
	(_LT_CONFIG): Expand _LT_PREPARE_MUNGE_PATH_LIST into generated
	libtool script.
	* build-aux/ltmain.in (func_mode_link): Call it to adjust
	sys_lib_dlsearch_path according to LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Document new LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH.

	libtool: optional filename-based shlib versioning on aix.

	Support filename-based shared library versioning on AIX with the
	lib.so library filename extension, which is used with runtime
	linking only. Runtime linking is enabled by the -brtl linker
	flag for executables and the -G linker flag for Shared Objects.
	The behaviour is similar to Linux/SVR4 DT_SONAME, hence the name
	"aix-soname=svr4".
	* Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass with_aix_soname value
	via lt_cv_with_aix_soname into testsuite.
	* configure.ac: AC_SUBST with_aix_soname for testsuite.
	* libltdl/loaders/dlopen.c (vm_open): Use RTLD_MEMBER flag for
	dlopen when the filename does specify an archive member between
	"()". Otherways, retry with appending LT_SHARED_LIB_MEMBER when
	loading fails without but archive file seems to exist.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (dynamic_linker): Describe configured shared
	library versioning variant according to with_aix_soname and
	runtime linking.
	(soname_spec, library_names_spec, shlibpath_overrides_runpath)
	(postinstall_cmds, postuninstall_cmds, hardcode_direct)
	(hardcode_direct_absolute, no_undefined_flag)
	(allow_undefined_flag): Set according to with_aix_soname and
	runtime linking configuration.
	(export_symbols_cmds): Decorate symbols with the weak keyword.
	(archive_expsym_cmds): Create both shared libraries according to
	with_aix_soname and runtime linking configuration. Filter -brtl
	linker flag from compiler_flags for shared libraries due to its
	side effects.
	(enable_static): Respect with_aix_soname for disabling as well.
	* m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_SHARED_LIB_MEMBER): Define, set based on the
	value of the shared_archive_member_spec libtool variable.
	* m4/ltoptions.m4 (_LT_WITH_AIX_SONAME): New. Provides
	commandline option --with-aix-soname=aix|svr4|both. Declares
	$shared_archive_member_spec as libtool variable.
	(_LT_SET_OPTIONS): Define LT_INIT options "aix-soname=aix",
	"aix-soname=svr4", "aix-soname=both". Default is
	"aix-soname=aix".
	* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Document new options.
	* tests/deplibs-ident.at: To define whether this test should
	XFAIL, use hardcode_action, hardcode_direct,
	hardcode_direct_absolute configuration settings instead of

	libtool: support Mac OS 10.10 and newer.

	The current template mistakenly treats a MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
	value of "10.10" as "10.1" followed by junk. Thinking that the
	build is targeting 10.1 Puma instead of 10.10 Yosemite, it tells
	the linker to ignore undefined symbols instead of dynamically
	resolving them. This can cause runtime crashes* and will affect

	libtool: fix nm test for MSYS/MinGW

	The check for the -B option of nm does not work as intended on MSYS/MinGW.
	MSYS converts /dev/null to the DOW/Windows "equivanent" special file NUL,
	but the MinGW nm treats this file as any empty file. This means that
	you might end up with some fallback nm instead of the desired nm. This
	is not normally a problem, but if one nm is built without lto support, it
	starts to matter.

	Fixes sr #108558, reported by LRN.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_PATH_NM) [MSYS]: Use a non-existant file instead of
	/dev/null when checking if nm supports -B.

	tests: gcj cannot reliably compile directly to .o from .java

	Some 4.3.x and 4.4.x releases of gcj insert a spurious 'dummy'
	symbol into every object file when compiling directly from .java
	to .o:
	* tests/convenience.at (GCJ): make .class files from .java

	testsuite: with SunStudio12.x f77, don't fail on system symbols

	Modern SunStudio f77 is just a wrapper for f90, which
	explains why current master fails these test groups with:

	 Undefined	first referenced
	  symbol  	    in file
	 __f90_slw_ch      .libs/foof2.o
	 __f90_sslw        .libs/foof2.o
	 __f90_eslw        .libs/foof2.o
	 ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors. No output written to
	.libs/libfoo2.so.0.0.0

	So we allow some undefined symbols in the libraries, which are
	resolved by the $(FLIBS) added to the final binaries in the tests.
	This seems like the simpler, and less error inducing solution to
	me (compared to adding $(FLIBS) to every library LDFLAGS line).
	* tests/f77demo.at (libfoo_la_LDFLAGS, libfoo2_la_LDFLAGS)
	(libfoo3_la_LDFLAGS, libmix_la_LDFLAGS): Remove -no-undefined
	flag.
	* tests/fcdemo.at: Likewise.

	Choosing between hardcoding a tool's name, or using the shell

	configury: use $(SED) where input does not end in newline.

	On Solaris machines the system sed does not process the last
	line of input unless it ends with a newline, which means it
	cannot be used to massage the output of git-version-gen, because
	it deliberately omits the terminating newline.
	* Makefile.am (rebuild): Use the sed command found by configure,
	which has a better chance of working properly than the first sed
	on PATH.

	libtool: Don't fall back to static libraries if building them was disabled

	If -no-undefined was not specified but the platform didn't
	support shared libraries with undefined symbols (e.g. Cygwin/
	MinGW), static libraries were built instead of shared ones,
	even if building them was explicitly disabled with --disable-
	static configure option.

	Fix this by stopping with a fatal error if a shared library
	can't be built in this case instead of unexpectedly building a
	static library instead.

	libtool: Fix x86_64-pc-solaris2.* GNU ld breakage

	Since commit [1] libtool tries to set a 64-bits target for GNU
	ld.  However, it does so wrongly for x86_64-pc-solaris2.*
	targets, causing libtool to believe the linker is called
	ld_sol2.  There is no such thing, and it obviously breaks
	things further down.  Some people wrongly assume there is
	supposed to be an ld_sol2 on their systems, e.g. [2].

	I think the original change is fragile, because it assumes it
	has all CHOSTs matched, then appends _sol2.  In the wild,
	people have used amd64-pc-solaris2* too, so perhaps it would
	be safer if the code only appended _sol2 if there is actually
	an explicit target set.

	Anyhow, since the 64-bits sparc target is called sparc64-* or
	sparcv9-*, the sparc case is already correctly handled, so in
	the attached patch, I just added an x86_64-* case, although I
	could imagine relaxing the i?86 case to *86*-pc-solaris2* too.

	In any case, defaulting to a linker called ld_sol2 is wrong.

	libtool: Fix detection of ld version with parentheses.

	ld from crosstool-NG reports a version string with an extra
	version number in a parenthetical note:
	GNU ld (crosstool-NG 1.13.0) 2.21.1

	This made libtool assume that the ld version was the
	crosstool-NG version (1.13.0) instead of the real ld version
	(2.21.1).

	To fix the ld version string, this patch filters out any string
	between parentheses that is followed by a space.

	Because of this bug, filtering of exported symbols was not
	taking place with crosstool-NG toolchains.

	This issue has bee noticed when building pango, which exported
	harfbuzz symbols that should have remained hidden.

	libtool: Fix $wl setting for tcc on GNU systems

	(This addresses http://bugs.debian.org/663945.  See there for
	more-detailed discussion.)

	tcc gained support for "-Wl,-rpath -Wl,<directory>" in its
	commit 7fb0482a ("Support linker options passed in several -Wl
	param", 2012-03-14) but libtool doesn't know to use it.  Teach
	it.

	Without this change, running "make check" on MPFR when it has
	been built with tcc and shared libraries doesn't work because
	libtool generates a -rpath option, which tcc doesn't support.

	libtool: Haiku change for shlibpath_overrides_runpath

	Pretty much all changes to Haiku for Libtool have been
	upstreamed, however we currently have an incorrect value for
	shlibpath_overrides_runpath.  It should be "no" instead of
	"yes".

	Previously Scott McCreary had submitted patches for us, but I
	told him I would work to get this committed, as he is quite
	busy lately.

	Here is a commit he made to our Haiku Ports site though, that
	shows the exact change I am proposing done against Libtool
	2.4.2.

	libtool: Discard "-mllvm $arg" options when linking.

	Clang accepts options of the form "-mllvm $arg", and passes the
	argument as an option to LLVM.  These options caused problems
	for Libtool when linking; in some cases, the -mllvm option is
	passed through but the corresponding argument is dropped.  (See
	for example http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=14716.)

	This patch resolves the issue by explicitly matching -mllvm and
	taking an argument.  Since Clang never uses LLVM for linking,
	the matched "-mllvm $arg" option is irrelevant for the link

	libtool: Add Android/Linux support.

	This patch adds proper Android support to libtool. The main
	issues are the following:

	  - Versioned libraries are not supported by the platform and
	    its build/packaging tools.

	  - The dynamic linker is not GNU ld, there is no support for
	    DT_RUNPATH.

	  - Similarly, there is no ldconfig.

	libtool: trust -print-search-dirs from recent GCC

	Alan Modra hints in [1] that -print-search-dirs was fixed in
	GCC 4.2(?), so that it nowadays automatically appends
	-print-multi-os-directory for the applicable directories. I.e.
	it should no longer be necessary for libtool to append a second
	../lib64 when GCC has already done so. Also, the multi-os
	appending loop seems to have been added specifically for early
	(arguably broken) bi-arch enabled GCCs that printed -m32
	directories even though -m64 was the default [2]. So, my
	conclusion is that we want any libtool magic to affect
	-print-search-dirs output from contemporary GCCs as little as
	possible, while continuing to append the
	-print-multi-os-directory for the legacy case.

	Fixes bug#15321 reported by Ozkan Sezer.

	[1] http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20425
	[2] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2006-09/msg00019.html

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): If any of the
	directories printed by -print-search-dirs ends with the
	content of -print-multi-os-directory, then assume that
	GCC adds the multi-os-directory where appropriate all by
	itself and hence don't try to second guess when to add
	it manually.
	* THANKS: Update.

	bootstrap: make first char of IFS a space.

	Putting tab first in IFS breaks func_echo_all usage of $*,
	resulting in failure of func_infer_tag to match a command line
	using a $CC with trailing spaces. The trailing spaces were
	stripped out of CC_expanded but words in $CC were separated by
	tabs. This didn't match the makefile expansion of $CC using the

	The current code tries to locate a compatible nm tool.  It starts with
	a prefixed nm tool (great!) and includes a plain nm too (that's fine).

	libtool: Drop $LDFLAGS when invoking the toolchain

	m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [Solaris] <archive_cmds>: Drop
	$LDFLAGS as it is a user variable that is usually used when invoking
	libtool. As such, it should not be used by libtool when it invokes the
	toolchain as it contains options intended for libtool, not the
	toolchain. Fixes export.at and other tests that add -no-undefined to
	LDFLAGS.

2012-12-19  Richard Palo  <richard.palo@baou.fr>  (tiny change)

	libtool: Add SONAME to the so when exporting explicit symbols on Solaris

	m4/libtool.m (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [Solaris] <archive_expsym_cmds>: Feed
	-h $soname to the linker just as is done in archive_cmds.
	THANKS: Update.

2012-11-02  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	libtool: add @INIT@ to the preloader, for data imports on Windows

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS) [dumpbin]: Adjust
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_cdecl so that it declares imported
	data symbols as __declspec(dllimport). Adjust
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_c_name_address and
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_c_name_address_lib_prefix so that they
	fill in "(void*) 0" for imported data symbols. Add new
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_import which finds imported data
	symbols if non-empty and export this variable to the libtool script
	in the global_symbol_to_import variable. Adjust
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe so that data imports can be located.
	* build-aux/ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms): When data imports
	are present, as indicated by global_symbol_to_import, generate
	a relocation function lt_syminit that fills in the addresses
	of data imports at runtime and point to the new function with a
	new virtual @INIT@ entry in the symbol list.
	* libltdl/loaders/preopen.c (add_symlist): Look for the virtual
	@INIT@ symbol (i.e. lt_syminit) and call it.
	(vm_sym): Step past the @INIT@ symbol, if present.
	* tests/demo.at (dlmain.c): Call the @INIT@ symbol, if present.
	* NEWS: Update.

2012-11-02  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	libtool: unify the global symbol transformations

	Since it is safe for $lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_cdecl to match
	with a simple /^T .* .*$/ type expression, it is ok for the other
	transformations as well.  At least if you require at least one
	$symcode at the start of the line, so that the just generated output
	doesn't match the next sed expression.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Unify the matching expressions
	in the sed programs that transform the extracted symbol lines.

2012-11-02  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	libtool: break up long lines

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Break up long lines when
	assigning the sed scripts that transform the extracted symbol lines.

	bootstrap: use a decent awk if /bin/awk is hopeless.

	Bootstrap used to fail without an explicit AWK environment
	setting on machines with both nawk and awk, but where awk is a
	museum piece.
	* gl/build-aux/inline-source (AWK): Remove initial setting.
	(require_awk): Search PATH for a gawk, mawk or nawk before
	settling on awk, just like configure does.
	(func_include): Use it.

2012-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: be sure to register gnulib submodule.

	Fix spurious test failures due to unmatched experr output.
	* tests/libtoolize.at, tests/old-ltdl-iface.at: Add the addition
	2 spaces now used to justify error prefixes.

2012-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	associated environment variables for not found prerequisite
	programs.
	* bootstrap: Regenerate.

2012-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: honor COLORTERM and USE_ANSI_COLORS.

	Plenty of machines use a terminfo database that doesn't have
	entries for color escape sequences, even though the terminal
	itself most likely supports ANSI color escapes.
	* gl/build-aux/funclib.sh (require_term_colors): If COLORTERM
	or USE_ANSI_COLORS are set, then ignore what terminfo says,
	and use standard ANSI color escape sequences.
	* bootstrap: Regenerate.

2012-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: make error messages prettier.

	* gl/build-aux/funclib.sh (func_error): Indent 'error' prefix by

2012-10-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: emphasize command executions with terminal bold.

	* bootstrap.in (func_show_eval): Use $require_term_colors to

	(colorful!) bootstrap func_show_eval here too.

2012-10-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: show output from 'make bootstrap-deps'.

	* bootstrap.conf (libtool_build_prerequisites): Add support for
	AM_V_GEN and AM_V_at to the temporary pre-configure Makefile.
	Instead of eliding non-error output from bootstrap-deps, show
	the results, with verbosity set according to $opt_verbose.
	* Makefile.am (m4/ltversion.m4, build-aux/ltmain.sh, libtool)
	(README): Fix the display rules to correctly fall-back to
	AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY when V=1 is not passed to make invocation.

2012-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: fixup badly formatted ChangeLog entries.

	* build-aux/git-log-fix: Mostly missing category tags and refilling
	to 64 columns, but also deleting duplicate entries from merging the
	gary/reredo-test-operand-order branch.
	* g/build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog.diff: Local patch to prevent

	libtool: avoid non-underscore symbols in the "dumpbin -symbols" wrapper

	If an object has a symbol lacking an expected leading underscore,
	the symbol name is not printed, but the symbol type is, leading
	to output such as:
	    T _normal _normal
	    T T _another _another
	when the expected output would have been something like:
	    T _normal _normal
	    T no_underscore no_underscore
	    T _another _another
	However, symbols lacking an expected leading underscore are
	not "real" symbols, they are internal symbols which we don't
	care about, therefore drop them instead.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS) [MSVC]: Output the whole

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: remove m4sh support.

	Now that the code base has coalesced around a single option
	parser, there's no need for the unused getopt.m4sh and support.
	* build-aux/getopt.m4sh, build-aux/general.m4sh,
	tests/getopt-m4sh.at: Remove.
	* Makefile.am (m4sh_dir, LT_M4SH, general_m4sh, getopt_m4sh)
	(sh_files): Remove.
	(TESTSUITE_AT): Remove tests/getopt-m4sh.at.
	(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove M4SH.
	* bootstrap.conf (libtool_build_prerequisites): Remove M4SH.
	* configure.ac (M4SH): Remove.
	* HACKING (Editing `.m4sh' Files): Remove and renumber following
	sections.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	(ltmain_sh): Generate ltmain.sh from ltmain.in using
	$(bootstrap_edit).
	* build-aux/ltmain.m4sh: Remove.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rewritten over funclib.sh instead of general.m4sh.

	* Makefile.am (libtoolize_m4sh): Remove.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Delete libtoolize_m4sh.
	(libtoolize_in): Remove rule.
	(libtoolize): Apply bootstrap_edit to libtoolize.in too.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): Refer to libtoolize.in.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Remove.
	* libtoolize.in: Rewrite as a client of options-parser and the
	new funclib.sh, avoiding the m4sh expansion step.
	* tests/libtoolize.at, tests/old-ltdl-iface.at (experr): adjust
	to match funclib.sh error output.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	options-parser: correctly quote shell meta-characters in arguments.

	When any argument contains a shell meta-character, it needs to be
	quoted when passed around.  We already pass parameter lists as
	space delimited strings of arguments, and pass the string through
	eval to turn it back into a list before re-assigning using `set'.
	To prevent the shell from interpreting any meta-characters during
	an `eval set dummy $argumentlist', they must be quoted again
	inside the quoted argument list.
	* build-aux/funclib.sh (func_quote_for_eval): Be careful to keep
	a separate tally of quoted and unquoted argument lists, to
	conform to the API of the single argument func_quote_for_eval
	implementation in build-aux/general.m4sh.
	* bulid-aux/options-parser (func_run_hooks): To account for the
	doubly quoted meta-character argument lists, we must eval the
	parameter reassignment `set' call separately from evaluating the
	dynamically named hook results variable.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: factor common shell code into build-aux/funclib.sh.

	Moving potentially reusable code into a common file that can
	be sourced by clients, and adjusting for impedance mismatch
	or necessary renames during integration.
	* build-aux/funclib.sh: New file.
	* build-aux/options-parser (Shell normalisation)
	(User overrideable command paths, Global variables, func_append)
	(require_term_colors, func_echo, func_echo_infix_1, func_warn)
	(func_error, func_fatal_error, func_quote_for_eval, func_verbose):

	here.
	* bootstrap, build-aux/extract-trace: Source build-aux/funclib.sh
	before build-aux/options-parser.
	* build-aux/options-parser (usage, long_help_message): Set
	default values to match what is parsed by the unmodified parser.
	* build-aux/extract-trace (usage, long_help_message): Only set
	from func_main, so that clients sourcing this file can still use
	the correct defaults from build-aux/options-parser.
	* bootstrap (bootstrap_options_prep, bootstrap_parse_options):
	Move warning option parsing from here...
	* build-aux/option-parser (func_options_prep)
	(func_parse_options): ...to here, where all clients can benefit.
	* Makefile.am (funclib_sh): New macro; path to funclib.sh.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Add $(funclib_sh).

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: source extract-trace rather than fork and execute each call.

	Rather than forking and executing a full $SHELL for each macro
	extraction, source the script and its dependencies into our
	execution space and use the provided func_extract_trace API.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Source extract-trace from an appropriate
	directory determined presently by make.
	(func_extract_trace): Remove this wrapper.
	* Makefile.am (abs_aux_dir): Absolute path to extract-trace
	directory.
	(configure_edit): Inject abs_aux_dir into uninstalled libtoolize.

	(install-data-local): Inject pkgauxdir into installed libtoolize
	during installation.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	options-parser: employ fork minimisation.

	* build-aux/options-parser (_G_HAVE_XSI_OPS): Environment
	overrideable defaults for bash and zsh, which are known to
	support XSI extensions.
	(_G_HAVE_PLUSEQ_OP): Similarly for new enough versions of bash,
	which are known to have += support.
	(func_append): Only perform the shell += probe when state of
	support is unknown.
	(func_split_equals, func_split_short_opt): Similarly for XSI
	probe to select fastest working implementation.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	options-parser: keep non-option arguments separate!

	* build-aux/options-parser (func_parse_options): When there is
	more than one non-option argument, "$*" forces all of them into
	a single string.  Use ${1+"$@"} to set arguments correctly.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	options-parser: prefix usage message with "Usage: ".

	* build-aux/options-parser (func_usage_message): Prefix usage
	message with "Usage: ".

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: work when using fallback shallow gnulib clone.

	Bootstrapping without --gnulib-srcdir creates a shallow gnulib
	clone to run gnulib-tool out of, except that the parent package
	is almost certainly using a revision of gnulib before just tha
	most recent 2 gnulib revisions.
	* bootstrap (func_require_gnulib_submodule): Pull the most
	recent 365 revisions, which ought to be enough for a well-
	maintained parent package.
	Don't forget to run 'git submodule update' to select the correct
	gnulib revision.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: require GNU make to bootstrap.

	Make is not installed by default in some environments, such as
	cygwin... which is slow enough already without having to wait
	for gnulib-tool, bootstrap and half of configure to complete
	before getting an error.
	* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Add recent GNU make to bootstrap
	requirements.  Now missing make is diagnosed in the earliest
	part of bootstrap.

2012-10-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: simplify "Local variables:" footer with time-stamp-pattern.

	* bootstrap, build-aux/extract-trace, build-aux/options-parser
	(Local variables): Use time-stamp-pattern to set number of
	searched lines to 10, and to replace time-stamp-start,
	time-stamp-end and time-stamp-format.

2012-10-08  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: skip the with-pic test only if DLL_EXPORT is defined
	For some systems with PIC as default, the test was inadvertently
	skipped. Issue introduced in commit 4440d65.
	* tests/with-pic.at: Skip the test for systems that define
	DLL_EXPORT.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov.

	tests: rerefix line ending problems on MinGW.
	The previous commit broke Linux->MinGW cross-compiling.
	* tests/mdemo.at: Normalize line endings after $EGREP.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov.

2012-10-06  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: refix line ending problems on MinGW.
	In commit 22f5750, one of the hunks actually introduced
	line ending problems. Revert that hunk.
	* tests/mdemo.at: Use AT_DATA for expected output when the
	output from compiled programs is fed through $EGREP.

	tests: use dry runs in both parts of 'check link mode operation'
	MSVC exits with status 2 instead of the expected 1 when a
	real link is attempted.
	* tests/libtool.at (check link mode operation): Use a dry run and
	expect a clean exit status instead of expecting a fail.

2012-10-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: sanitise the libtool quote checking Autotests.

	Carefully comment the maze of quoting and escaping needed to
	pass through M4, $SHELL, and grep before regexp matching.
	* tests/libtool.at (quote shell meta-characters in filenames):
	Split backslash into a separate test group, because it needs
	additional escaping.
	Use grep consistently for the entire test group.
	Use AT_CHECK rather than LT_AT_CHECK to avoid problems with
	escaping literal $ correctly with LT_ESCAPE.
	Use the correct number of backslashes for each sub-group.
	Escape double-quote literals portably.
	Reported by Peter Rosin.

2012-10-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: ensure mdemo.at doesn't rely on installed libltdl.

	* tests/mdemo.at (configuer.ac): Build an included convenience
	libltdl.
	(Makefile.am): Add subdir-objects.
	Remove override rules from legacy mdemo tests to reuse parent
	libltdlc.la.
	(LT_AT_CHECK_CONFIG): Add --with-included-ltdl to configure
	arguments so that test cases always use the subproject libltdl
	in preference to any installed libltdl.
	Reported by Peter Rosin.

2012-10-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: allow for unstable fortran output ordering.

	Due to differences in line-endings between C stdout and Fortran
	stdout, as well as unpredictable output ordering between
	platforms and runtimes, weaken success criteria to not require
	the entire output of fortran programs to match a test case.
	* itests/fcdemo.at, tests/f77demo.at (_LT_CHECK_EXECUTE):
	Improve comments, and weaken test case to grep for a known line
	in the f77 runtime output.

2012-10-05  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: make LT_AT_HOST_DATA retain whitespace on MinGW
	Fixes issues with depdemo.at, f77demo.at and fcdemo.at.
	* tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_HOST_DATA) [MinGW]: Keep leading
	and trailing spaces and tabs when converting line endings.

2012-10-05  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: fix line ending problems on MinGW

	* tests/cdemo.at: Use LT_AT_HOST_DATA for expected output from

	All legacy tests have been fully migrated to Autotest, so
	no need to cling to the legacy scaffolding any more.
	* tests/defs.m4sh: Delete file.
	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Remove unused color-tests and
	parallel-tests options.

	(exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_program_name): Remove. The excluded
	directories no longer exist.
	(exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_strcmp): Remove subexpression
	for matching removed demo directories.

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	configure: remove unused conditionals and support for order only rules.

	Clean up some more unused cruft.
	* configure.ac (HAVE_CXX, HAVE_F77, HAVE_FC, HAVE_GCJ, HAVE_RC):
	Remove.  These were only used by the recently removed legacy
	tests.
	[order-only prerequisites]: Ditto.

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: remove support for `-r' and `reconf_dirs'.

	With all those extra demo directories out of the way, we can
	revert to a more canonical bootstrap process, and jettison the
	cruft that was only there to work around the pain of
	needing to autoreconf 11 directories.  Bootstrap is now an order
	of magnitude faster.
	* bootstrap.conf (require_ltdl_dir): New function. Factored out
	of `libtool_build_prerequisites'.
	(libtool_build_prerequisites): Adjust.
	(func_reconfigure): Use `require_ltdl_dir' to determine the name

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: let pic_flag and with-pic Autotests work on non-VPATH builds.

	* tests/pic_flag.at: Use _LT_DEMO_SETUP to generate a demo style
	project, rather than relying on $abs_top_srcdir/configure.
	* tests/with-pic.at: Likewise.
	* Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Move tests/pic_flag.at and
	tests/with-pic.at so that they run immediately following
	tests/demo.at.

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: migrate legacy tests/fcdemo tests to Autotest.

	Along with the demise of the last demo directory, so all the
	cruft for re-autotooling and distributing the additional
	directories is no longer necessary.
	* tests/fcdemo.at: New autotest groups, based on...
	* tests/fcdemo-conf.test, tests/fcdemo-exec.test,

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: migrate legacy tests/mdemo2 tests to Autotest.

	This test was just a small non-ltdl aware library to load a
	library from the legacy mdemo test, which in turn used ltdl to
	call functions from modules. No need to create a whole other
	test group with copies of everything from mdemo setup - just
	tack the additional test on the end of the mdemo group.
	* tests/mdemo.at (link with library that loads ltdl modules):
	New test, based on...
	* tests/mdemo2-conf.test, tests/mdemo-exec.test,

	* Makefile.am: Adjust.

2012-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: migrate legacy tests/pdemo tests to Autotest.

	This test was a thinly veiled copy of the basic legacy
	demo-conf.test series, with the addition of long file names that
	are not unique in the first 17 characters of their name, mashed
	up with the cmdline_wrap.at max_cmd_len limits.  Migrating to
	Autotest means that this test will be automatically rerun with
	max_cmd_len=24 as cmdline_wrap.at recurses through the whole
	testsuite, so the migrated pdemo test is now simply another test
	case in demo.at with longer file names.
	* test/demo.at (linking with long file names): New test, based
	on...
	* tests/pdemo-conf.test, tests/pdemo-exec.test,
	tests/pdemo-inst.test, tests/pdemo-make.test: ...these legacy

2012-10-03  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Merge branch 'gary/reredo-test-operand-order'
	The original manually applied changeset 962aa91 contained several
	errors (some corrected by subsequent patches on master, others not)
	and many unrelated (although in this case, correct) changes were also
	committed in the same changeset.
	The merged branch gary/reredo-test-operand-order factors the
	unrelated changes out into separate commits, and performs the work
	that should have been in 962aa91 with a script, the results of which
	were then painstakingly inspected for errors.
	This merge moves the corrections for errors made in the original
	manual patch from the branch onto master.  Please inspect the many
	separate changesets on the branch rather than the original patch
	when you bisect or otherwise find your way to an error caused by
	962aa91.

	syntax-check: [REDO] fix violations and implement
	 sc_prohibit_test_const_follows_var.

	To safely use a non-literal fist argument to 'test', you must
	always prepend a literal non-'-' character, but often the second
	operand is a constant that doesn't begin with a '-' already, so
	always use 'test a = "$b"' instead of the noisy 'test "X$b" = Xa'.
	* cf.mk (sc_prohibit_test_const_follws_var): New syntax-check
	rule to ensure we don't reintroduce noisy test operands.

2012-09-19  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: skip with-pic test when no "real" pic flag is used.

	This reverts commit 11cd425e7d47111956381dba28f8c1b34e14653f.
	These instructions are hard to find for new maintainers, so it's

	fixup: restore EXPORTS test

	Commit v2.4.2-120-g962aa91
	syntax-check: fix violations and implement sc_prohibit_test_const_follows_var
	inadvertedly reversed the meaning of the comparison.

	* build-aux/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link) [cygwin|mingw|cegcc]: Restore
	the EXPORTS test.  We need to look at the symbols when it's _not_
	already a .def file (in which case we trust the user input blindly).

2012-01-30  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	cwrapper: avoid surplus strlen calculations.

	* build-aux/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src:lt_update_exe_path):

	libtool: make fork minimisation compatible with dash and zsh.

	* build-aub/general.m4sh (lt_HAVE_PLUSEQ_OP): Instead of using
	$((..)) arithmetic, which causes an error on dash, use a case
	based bash version check.
	(lt_HAVE_ARITH_OP, lt_HAVE_XSI_OPS): Also short circuit the
	feature probing forks and set these automatically when zsh is
	detected.
	Reported by Stefano Lattarini.

2011-12-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: adopt autoconf echo normalization code.

	Dash shipped with Ubutu-11.10 as /bin/sh, among others, still
	has a crippled echo builtin that mis-handles backslashes.
	* build-aux/options-parser (bs_echo): Adopt the autoconf echo
	normalization code to find a suitable replacement for buggy echo
	commands.
	Adjust all uses of echo to $bs_echo.
	* build-aux/extract-trace (func_extract_trace, func_main):
	Likewise.
	* bootstrap: To retain some execution speed on platforms with
	buggy builtin echo, replace most occurrences of `echo' with
	`$bs_echo' - except where its arguments will obviously never
	contain backslashes or be overly long.
	Reported by Reuben Thomas.

	libtool: minimise forks per invocation under bash.

	* build-aux/general.m4sh (lt_HAVE_PLUSEQ_OP, lt_HAVE_ARITH_OP)

	running under bash, to avoid a few unnecessary forks.

2011-12-13  H.J. Lu  <hongjiu.lu@intel.com>

	libtool: Support x32.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_ENABLE_LOCK): Support x32.

2011-12-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: disable prohibit_always-defined_macros syntax check.

	Aside from Apple grep silently failing to run this test and
	report violations, libtool still uses non-gnulib versions of
	dirent.h and argz.h which use the same macros, but are not
	always-defined.
	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Move
	sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros from here...

	tests: make sure file restore traps are called correctly on AIX.

	* tests/demo-noinst-link.test (func_save_files): set the restore

	syntax-check: fix violations and implement sc_useless_braces_in_variable_derefs.

	syntax-check: fix violations and implement sc_prohibit_sed_s_comma.

	with two leading commas so that they sort lexicographically at
	the top of `ls' output.  Now, `./configure
	--prefix=`pwd`/,,inst' works again, for the first time in
	several years.
	* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_sed_s_comma): Comma is too common a
	character to use routinely as the separator for sed
	substitutions on file paths and other variables determined by
	the user, causing bugs like the one I describe above.  Make sure
	we don't accidentally reintroduce any comma separators in
	future.

	syntax-check: fix violations and implement sc_useless_quotes_in_assignment.

	Contrary to popular belief, Bourne shell does not resplit RHS of
	assignments after expansion, so if there are no unquoted shell
	metacharacters or whitespace, the quotes are useless.
	* cfg.mk (_sc_search_regexp_or_exclude): A variation of gnulib's
	_sc_search_regexp that also allows individual exclusions at the

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* tests/lt_dladvise.at (hint_global): Remove one of a pair of
	consecutive "to"s split across lines in a comment.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_prohibit_cvs_keyword.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove sc_prohibit_cvs_keyword
	from list of disabled checks.
	* tests/tagdemo/README: Remove spurious CVS keyword.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_makefile_at_at_check.

	At some point we were supporting some undetermined `broken
	make', as evidenced by having carried the following code since
	2003:
	  ## use @LIBLTDL@ because some broken makes do not accept
	  ## macros in targets, we can only do this because our LIBLTDL
	  ## does not contain $(top_builddir).
	  @LIBLTDL@: $(top_distdir)/libtool \
	  ...
	However, we've also had *many* cases of macros in targets for
	just as long, so most likely we never fully supported makes
	allegedly broken in this way.  As of this release, we explicitly
	no longer support make implementations that do not accept macros
	in targets.
	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove sc_makefile_at_at_check
	from list of disabled checks.
	* configure.ac (order-only prerequisites): Test with the
	order-only pipe symbol in a macro.
	* Makefile.am, tests/mdemo/Makefile.am: Convert all @FOO@ to
	$(FOO).

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_makefile_TAB_only_indentation.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove
	sc_makefile_TAB_only_indentation from list of disabled checks.
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/Makefile.am): Replace leading spaces with
	TABs.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_libltdl_la_SOURCES): Ditto.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_m4_quote_check.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove sc_m4_quote_check from
	list of disabled checks.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_OBJDIR): Quote LT_OBJDIR
	correctly.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_file_system.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove sc_file_system from list
	of disabled checks.
	(VC_LIST_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE_REGEX): Match mail directory correctly
	to avoid running its contents through syntax-check.
	* build-aux/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Use correct spelling
	for "file system".
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (try_dlopen): Ditto.
	* tests/dlloader-api.at: Ditto.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_error_message_uppercase.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove
	sc_error_message_uppercase from list of disabled checks.
	(exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_error_message_uppercase): Don't
	match cvsu, which is not our file to edit.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Use lowercase error message in example.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: rationale for disabling sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value.

	* cfg.mk: Note that we support C++ compilation of libltdl, which
	in turn requires that *alloc return values be cast correctly.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_cast_of_argument_to_free.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove
	sc_cast_of_argument_to_free from list of disabled checks.
	* build-aux/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/libltdl/lt__alloc.h,
	libltdl/lt__dirent.c: Casting argument to free is never
	necessary.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_avoid_if_before_free.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove sc_avoid_if_before_free
	from list of disabled checks.
	According to gnulib/doc/free.texi: "On old platforms such as
	SunOS4, @code{free (NULL)} fails.  However, since all such
	systems are so old as to no longer be considered ``reasonable
	portability targets,'' this module is no longer useful."
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt__alloc.h (FREE, MEMREASSIGN): Don't protect
	against freeing NULL bug on SunOS4.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	syntax-check: skip sc_unmarked_diagnostics.

	* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Move sc_unmarked_diagnostics
	from here...
	(local-checks-to-skip): ...to here.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rename `libltdl/config' directory to standard `build-aux'.

	In addition to moving the autoconf auxiliary script directory
	into the place expected by GNU developers ($top_srcdir/build-aux)
	we also simplify libtoolize somewhat by having libltdl use
	whatever directory was specified by the parent project.  This is
	much more flexible, allows libltdl client projects to also use a
	single canonical `$top_srcdir/build-aux' auxiliary script
	directory, and maintains backward compatibility with existing
	projects that wish to continue using $ltdl_dir/config.
	* libltdl/config: Moved whole directory from here...
	* build-aux: ...to here.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgaux_subproject): Remove.
	(func_install_pkgaux_parent): Remove.
	(func_install_pkgaux_files): Considerably simplified now that we
	have only a single auxiliary directory to worry about.
	(subproject_aux_dir): Remove.
	* bootstrap.conf (libtool_readme_release_package_substitutions):
	No need to substitute our old unusual aux_dir location into
	README-release any more.
	* cfg.mk (_build-aux): Now that we use the standard location for
	this directory, no need to set this variable either.
	* configure.ac (AC_INIT): git-version-gen has moved.
	(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Adjust.
	* Makefile.am (stamp-mk, auxexefiles, auxfiles)
	(install-data-local): Use build-aux instead of config.
	(libltdl/stamp-mk): Ditto.
	* libltdl/configure.ac, tests/cdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/demo/configure.ac, tests/depdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/f77demo/configure.ac, tests/fcdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
	tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac
	(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Ditto.
	* tests/defs.m4sh (aux_dir): Ditto.
	* tests/configure-iface.at, tests/getopt-m4sh.at,
	tests/libtoolize.at, tests/subproject.at, tests/testsuite.at:
	Ditto.
	* Makefile.am (ltdl_ac_aux_dir): Extract at build-time...
	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ltdl_ac_aux_dir): ...so that
	libtoolize can access it at runtime without requiring GNU M4 via
	the extract-trace script.
	(require_Makefile_am_filter): Use it to determine whether the
	aux_dir declared in the current (parent) project configure is
	compatible with the declarations in installed ltdl autotools
	source files.
	(require_configure_ac_filter): New function to perform similar
	checks and rewrite configure.ac during installation if necessary.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: aux scripts go in ltdl dir when parent has no configure.

	When using libtoolize to install subproject libltdl into a
	parent project that does not use autotools, set the default
	directory for auxiliary scripts inside libltdl rather than
	littering the parent project with files it doesn't use.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_require_ac_aux_dir): In verbose mode,
	report results like other require_ funcs.
	(func_require_aux_dir): Put subproject auxiliary files into ltdl
	directory where libltdl/configure will be able to find
	`install-sh' and others.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: simplify runtime by substituting pkgauxdir.

	* Makefile.am (configure_edit): Substitute pkgauxdir.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgaux_subproject)
	(func_install_pkgaux_parent, extract_trace): Use it.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: generate require_ltdl_relative_aux_dir definition.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ltdl_relative_macro_dir): Change to
	be generated function...
	(require_ltdl_relative_aux_dir): ...so that we can easily
	generate this very similar function from the same code.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rename `libltdl/m4' directory to standard `m4'.

	In addition to moving the autoconf macro directory into the
	place expected by GNU developers ($top_srcdir/m4), we also
	simplify libtoolize somewhat by having libltdl use whatever
	directory was specified by the parent project.  This is much
	more flexible, allows libltdl client projects to also use a
	single canonical `$top_srcdir/m4' macro directory, and maintains
	backward compatibility with existing projects that wish to
	continue using $ltdl_dir/m4.
	* libltdl/m4: Moved to it's parent directory.
	* Makefile.am (ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, BUILDCHECK_ENVIRONMENT)
	(libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/aclocal.m4): Adjust.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): Adjust.
	* libltdl/configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): Remove. The
	libtoolize script can pick up the project macro directory from
	ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in libltdl/Makefile.am, saving us from needing
	to regenerate configure for the sake of a different macro
	directory declared in the libltdl using client project.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgmacro_subproject): Remove.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_parent): Remove.
	(subproject_macro_dir): Remove.
	(require_libltdl_Makefile_am, require_ltdl_aclocal_amflags)
	(require_ltdl_am_macro_dir): New functions, generated at runtime
	by adding libltdl/Makefile.am to the generation loop.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_files): Considerably simplified now that
	we have only a single macro directory to worry about.
	(require_ltdl_relative_macro_dir): New function. Calculate the
	relative path from $ltdl_dir to the parent project macro_dir.
	(require_Makefile_am_filter): Depending on $ltdl_mode, edit
	Makefile.am ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to use the parent project macro
	directory if necessary.
	(require_aclocal_m4_filter): Make sure m4_includes point to the
	correct macro directory by editing the file as it is copied
	into the parent project.
	(func_install_pkgltdl_files): Use the filters.
	(func_check_macros): Remove various advice that no longer
	applies with an always shared macro directory.
	(func_require_ltdl_dir): Don't default ltdl_dir to subproject
	when `--ltdl' was not given.
	(func_require_ltdl_mode): Leave ltdl_mode empty when ltdl_dir is
	not set.
	(func_require_macro_dir): Default to $ltdl_dir/m4 in subproject
	mode with no other directory implied by AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR or
	ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, otherwise m4 as before.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Match new "creating file `Makefile.am'"
	messages correctly.
	(subproject ltdl with non-shared directories): This test no
	longer makes sense, so repurposed...
	(subproject ltdl with non-canonical macro dir): ...this, to
	ensure subproject ltdl continues to automatically share the
	parent macro directory.
	* tests/cdemo/Makefile.am, tests/demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/depdemo/Makefile.am, tests/f77demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/fcdemo/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo/Makefile.am,
	tests/mdemo2/Makefile.am, tests/pdemo/Makefile.am,
	tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am (ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS): Use new location
	of macro_dir.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rename `Makefile.inc' to standard `ltdl.mk'.

	* libltdl/Makefile.inc: Moved from here...
	* libltdl/ltdl.mk: ...to here.
	* Makefile.am, bootstrap.conf, tests/libtoolize.at,
	tests/nonrecursive.at: Adjust.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgltdl_files): Set the
	destination file to `Makefile.inc' if grep finds an include for
	that name in a top-level Makefile.am.
	(func_check_macros): Print a deprecation warning if use of the
	old `Makefile.inc' convention is found.
	* tests/old-ltdl-iface.at: New test for renaming and warning
	correctly when `Makefile.inc' convention is still in use.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS extraction.

	Another simple refactor to simplify following changesets.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_Makefile_am, require_aclocal_amflags)
	(require_am_macro_dir): Generate these functions at runtime.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rename require_makefile_am to require_Makefile_am.

	A simple refactoring to keep the next change self-contained.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_makefile_am): Renamed from this...
	(require_Makefile_am): ...to this.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: simplify copying of files that are edited during install.

	* libltdl/Makefile.inc (EXTRA_DIST): Don't list autotools files
	that Automake automatically adds to a (subproject)
	distribution...
	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): ...although, our layout is a bit odd
	because we reuse libltdl/Makefile.inc in non-recursive mode in
	our own tree, so we do need to add those very same files here...
	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_Makefile_am_filter)
	(require_Makefile_inc_filter): ...all of which means we no
	longer need to manually remove those files at libtoolize time.
	These two new functions are factored out of...
	(func_fixup_Makefile): ...this old function, now removed.
	(func_copy): Add support for an optional sed script as the last
	argument to filter the content of a file as it is copied.
	(func_install_pkgltdl_files): Much simplified by $require_<foo>
	the relevant filter scripts and passing them to func_copy.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: simplify file-copying and -linking call-graph.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (TAR): Remove.
	(func_copy_some_files, func_copy_cb): Remove.
	(func_copy): Refactor from all of the above, and simplify. No
	need to use $TAR to preserve timestamps when copying, since
	we've been running touch right afterwards anyway. Adjust all
	callers to use the new argument footprint.
	(func_serial_update, func_keyword_update): Delete any pre-
	existing destination file when used with `--force' before
	calling func_copy, now that the hardcoded special cases are not
	in there any more.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_subproject)
	(func_install_pkgaux_subproject): Use our own file loop -
	func_copy subsumes all the checks previously in
	func_copy_some_files, but operates on only one file at a time.
	(func_install_pkgltdl_files): Similarly, handle aclocal.m4 and
	configure special cases here, before calling func_copy.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Make sure we match corrected "copying
	`configure.ac'" output.

2011-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: generate full and correct ChangeLog.

	* gnulib: Updated to pick up gitlog-to-changelog multi-author
	support.
	* gl/build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog.diff: Use gnulib-rejected
	patch for '(tiny change)' support.
	* Makefile.am (ChangeLog): Use gitlog-to-changelog --amend=F
	option.
	* libltdl/config/git-hooks/commit-msg: New commit message hook
	for git.
	* libltdl/config/git-log-fix: New file, with ChangeLog fixes.
	* HACKING (Using git): Update.

2011-11-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	options-parser: provide a saner pluggable API.

	It's much too easy to forget that the functions you hook into
	the option parser need to return unconsumed options in the
	variable `func_run_hooks_result'; better to follow the
	convention used in the rest of bootstrap and return results in a
	variable named after the function with `_result' appended.
	* libltdl/config/options-parser (func_run_hooks): implement this
	new API.
	(Option parsing): Update the example in the header comment for
	this section to reflect the changes.
	* bootstrap (bootstrap_options_prep, bootstrap_parse_options)
	(bootstrap_validate_options): Adjust.
	* bootstrap.conf (libtool_options_prep, libtool_parse_options)
	(libtool_validate_options): Ditto.

2011-11-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: display accurate usage message.

	After splitting bootstrap up, we also lost bootstrap's usage
	message, and were incorrectly displaying a partial extract-trace
	message.
	* bootstrap (usage): Set appropriately.

2011-11-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: accept --gnulib-srcdir=/path/to/gnulib again.

	During the split of bootstrap into options-parser and
	extract-trace, the generic long-option splitting code got lost.
	* libltdl/config/options-parser (func_parse_options): Add the
	code to split any long option separated by an equals from its
	optarg back in.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov.

2011-11-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	gnulib: update gnulib submodule.

	Among others, this fixes a bug in _build-aux expansion so that
	`make syntax-check' works again.
	* gnulib: Updated to today's master HEAD revision.
	* gl/top/maint.mk.diff: Remove. This patch has been applied
	upstream already.

2011-11-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: remove NL2SP and initialisation.

	There's only a single use of NL2SP, and that is redundant.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_serial_update): Factor away use of
	NL2SP.
	(NL2SP, SP2NL): Remove initialisation.

2011-11-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: remove consumed options from the list to be processed.

	Fix a bug where processed bootstrap options were not removed
	from the queue, and eventually flagged as unknown in the
	pluggable option parser driver.
	* bootstrap (bootstrap_parse_options)
	(bootstrap_validate_options): Follow the pluggable option parser
	API correctly, and set func_run_hooks_result to the list of
	remaining unconsumed options.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov.

2011-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor $opt_quiet, func_echo and func_echo_once.

	Instead of long sequences checking for setting of $opt_quiet,
	followed by one or more func_echo variations, add and use a new
	function func_whisper - the complement of func_verbose.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_whisper): New function. Adjust all
	callers previously using `$opt_quiet || func_echo ...'.
	(func_whisper_once): Ditto, for `$opt_quiet || func_echo_once
	...'.
	(func_whisper_hdr): New function, adjust all callers previously
	using `func_whisper_once ...; func_whisper ...'.
	(func_whisper_error_header): Ditto, but calling func_error.
	(func_echo_once): Remove.

2011-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: update a bit-rotted comment.

	* libtoolize (func_copy_cb): Since this comment was written, the
	function has been changed to timestamp files as it copies.
	Update the comment to reflect that.

2011-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	general.m4sh: relative path to the same directory is `.'.

	* general.m4sh (func_relative_path): We sometimes want to use
	the result of this function directly, rather than purely as a
	prefix, so we need to return `.' when both directories end up at
	the same location.

2011-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	ltmain.sh: append relative path trailing slashes explicitly.

	In addition to being more idiomatic, and hence minimising
	suprises, seeing the slash written explicity when appending to
	the result of a relative path calculation is a lot more
	readable.
	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_relative_path): Don't append
	an implicit trailing slash...
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): ...write it
	explicitly at the time of use.

2011-11-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: use pkgauxdir for local install and uninstall rules.

	* Makefile.am (pkgauxdir): Set it correctly.
	(uninstall-hook): Use it for pkgaux_scripts and
	pkgaux_data_files.
	(install-data-local): Ditto.
	Remove `config/' prefix from extract-trace and option-parser
	items.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	install: correct a typo in pkgaux_files location.

	* Makefile.am (install-data-local): Install pkgaux_files
	directly from $(aux_dir) [./libltdl/config at the moment].

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: order pkgltdl_files to avoid reconfiguration.

	* Makefile.am (pkgltdl_files): aclocal.m4 depends on
	configure.ac, and will cause spurious reconfiguration of freshly
	`libtoolize --ltdl' tree if we don't ensure configure.ac is the
	older of these two files.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Adjust expout order to match.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: remove an over-exuberant $(srcdir) prefix.

	* Makefile.am (git_version_gen): No need for an extra $(srcdir)
	in the path when we always use after `cd $(srcdir).

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: massage installed auxiliary script list at make time.

	* Makefile.am (configure_edit): Rename pkgconfig_files
	substitution to pkgaux_files, and add pkgaux_install_files and
	pkgaux_parent_files substitutions for atlocal.
	(pkgauxdir): Where to install pkgaux_files.
	(auxfiles): Removed, and replaced by...
	(pkgaux_parent_files, pkgaux_install_files, pkgaux_data_files):
	...these, which separate the files lists more logically for
	easier installation, and use by libtoolize.m4sh.
	(uninstall-hook): Adjust.
	(tests/atlocal): Adjust.
	* bootstrap.conf (libtool_link_libltdl_subdirs): Adjust.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgconfig_files)
	(func_install_pkgconfig_subproject)
	(func_install_pkgconfig_parent, func_install_pkgconfig_files)
	(all_pkgconfig_files): Renamed to...
	(func_install_pkgaux_files, unc_install_pkgaux_subproject)
	(func_install_pkgaux_parent, func_install_pkgaux_files)
	(all_pkgaux_files): ...these, resp. Adjust all callers.
	(func_massage_pkgconfig_files): Removed.
	(pkgaux_files): List of all auxiliary scripts substituted from
	Makefile.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: massage installed libltdl file list at make time.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (pkgltdldir, pkgdatadir): Put installable
	libltdl files in pkgdatadir. When testing, and _lt_pkgdatadir
	is set, adjust to look in libltdl subdirectory.
	(func_massage_pkgltdl_files): Removed function and only caller,
	because...
	(pkgltdl_files): ...we substitute the pre-massaged files
	directly...
	(func_install_pkgltdl_files): ...from here.
	Adjust installation of specially handled additional files.
	* Makefile.am (ltdldir): Location of libltdl files in source
	tree.
	(ltdldest, ltdldatafiles): Removed.
	(pkgltdl_files): New pre-massaged list of libltdl sources.
	(install-data-local, uninstall-hook): Use it.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Reorder expected output to match actual
	libtoolize output.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: massage installed macro list at make time.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_massage_aclocal_DATA): Removed function
	and only caller, because...
	(pkgmacro_files): ...we substitute the pre-massaged files
	directly...
	(func_install_pkgmacro_files): ...from here.
	* Makefile.am (pkgmacro_files): New pre-massaged list of aclocal
	macros used by func_install_pkgmacro_files.
	(configure_edit): Substitute pkgmacro_files instead of
	aclocalfiles.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: use only space delimited file lists.

	We don't install any files with whitespace in their file name,
	so using colon delimited lists to make that possible was a
	premature optimisation and an unneeded complication.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_copy_some_files): Remove IFS twiddling,
	and just pull space delimited files in a for loop idiomatically.
	(func_massage_aclocal_DATA, func_install_pkgmacro_subproject)
	(func_install_pkgmacro_parent, func_install_pkgmacro_files)
	(func_massage_pkgltdl_files, func_massage_pkgconfig_files):
	Append to file lists with space delimiter.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: remove sed based configure scanning.

	* libtoolize (func_scan_files): Removed function and callers.
	(require_seen_ltdl, require_seen_libtool): Factor out remaining
	functionality of former sed based scanning.
	(func_check_macros): Adjust.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor ltdl_mode discovery.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ac_ltdl_mode)
	(require_ac_ltdl_options, require_ltdl_mode): New functions
	factored out of func_scan_files for scanning and setting
	ltdl_mode and friends.
	(func_scan_files): Remove the factored out code.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_files, func_install_pkgltdl_files)
	(func_install_pkgconfig_files, func_check_macros): Adjust.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor ltdl_dir discovery.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ac_ltdl_dir, require_ltdl_dir):
	New functions factored out of func_scan_files for scanning and
	setting ac_ltdl_dir and ltdl_dir resp.
	(func_scan_files): Remove the factored out code.
	(func_fixup_Makefile, func_serial_update_check)
	(func_install_pkgltdl_files, func_install_pkgconfig_subproject)
	(func_check_macros): Adjust.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor aux_dir discovery.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_ac_aux_dir, require_aux_dir): New
	functions factored out of func_scan_files for scanning and
	setting aux_dir and friends.
	(func_scan_files): Remove the factored out code to scan
	configure.ac with sed, and then set macro_dir appropriately.
	(func_install_pkgconfig_subproject, func_install_pkgconfig_parent)
	(func_install_pkgmacro_files, func_check_macros): Adjust.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: install autoconf macros only if there is a $configure_ac.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgmacro_files): If there is no
	$configure_ac in the parent project directory, and libtoolize is
	in subproject mode, then the parent project has no use for
	autoconf macros, so don't install them.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: display aux files output header for non-autoconf parents.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgconfig_subproject): When the
	parent project does not use Autoconf, be sure to display an
	output header before copying auxiliary files despite not being
	able to scan for AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR arguments.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor macro_dir discovery around extract-trace script.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_extract_trace): Function to call
	$aux_dir/extract-trace.  The name and footprint are the same as
	the core function in the extract-trace script file so that we
	can choose to source that file when the option processing
	becomes compatible with ours.
	(require_ac_macro_dir, require_aclocal_amflags)

	New functions factored out of func_scan_files for scanning and
	setting macro_dir and friends.

	(func_check_macros): Adjust.
	* tests/libtoolize.at (Subproject ltdl without GNU M4): New test
	to ensure `libtoolize --subproject' continues to work without a
	GNU M4 dependency.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: refactor configure_ac discovery.

	Make a start on decomposing some of the giant functions at the
	heart of libtoolize into the much more flexible and manageable
	(albeit somewhat more verbose) model of self-organising
	$require_<foo> function pointers.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (require_configure_ac): New function factored
	out of func_scan_files for setting $configure_ac appropriately,
	implementation taken from extract-trace script.
	(func_autoconf_configure): And similarly for ensuring that a
	filename which matches something Autoconf would read also has
	content that appears to be destined for Autoconf processing.
	(func_scan_files): Simplified the factored out code to a single
	require_configure_ac call.
	(func_install_pkgconfig_files, func_check_macros): Ditto.
	(seen_autoconf): Removed.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	bootstrap: split into reusable parts.

	* bootstrap: Bourne shell has no scoping, so be extremely
	careful with namespaces, functions in `^func_' and `^require_';
	private variables in `^_G_', and public variables all well
	documented by comments.
	* libltdl/config/extract-trace: New file, containing the minimum
	of code previously in bootstrap plus a little glue to make the
	GNU M4 based autotools tracing function (as opposed to the
	kludgy sed extraction currently used everywhere else) a
	standalone script that can be executed or sourced.
	* libltdl/config/options-parser: New file, containing the
	pluggable options parser code shared between the other two.
	* bootstrap.conf: Adjust.
	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Be sure to distribute the new
	extract-trace and options-parser scripts.
	(install-data-local): And install them where libtoolize can find
	them.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: prefix absolute directory variables with 'abs_'.

	Avoid any possible confusion about the contests of thes
	variables compared to $aux_dir, $macro_dir and $src_dir in
	configure.ac, Makefile.am, libtoolize.m4sh and others.
	* tests/defs.m4sh (aux_dir, macro_dir, srcdir): Rename these...
	(abs_aux_dir, abs_macro_dir, abs_srcdir): ...to these resp.
	* tests/cdemo-shared-exec.test, tests/cdemo-shared-make.test,

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: calculate required mkinstalldirs calls during `make install'.

	* Makefile.am (install-data-local): Make sure all destination
	directories are in place before copying files there, without
	hardcoding them.

2011-11-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: substitute static directory names.

	By substituting just the directory name as passed to the macro,
	aux_dir can be used with or without $srcdir prefix, which is
	more flexible, and always means the same thing in each file,
	rather than sometimes being a directory name, sometimes relative
	to $top_srcdir.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR)
	(LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR): Don't force config.status substitutions
	with unexpanded shell variables.
	* Makefile.am, tests/defs.m4sh: Adjust.

2011-11-07  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	Close http://debbugs.gnu.org/9962.
	* tests/pic_flag.at (LT_AT_CONFIGURE): Make sure to configure
	with --disable-silent-rules so that the full output parsed by
	the rest of the test is available.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov.

2011-11-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: rename `--subproject' option, and make it work.

	* libtoolize (M4SH_GETOPTS): Remove `--standalone', which never
	worked, and add `--subproject' which sets ltdl_mode correctly.

2011-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: fix a scoping bug in func_aclocal_update_check.

	libtoolize.m4sh (func_aclocal_update_check): This body of this
	function used a global variable set by the outer loop of the
	caller. Fix to Use the function argument correctly.

2011-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: rename the debug shell command variable to `debug_cmd'.

	Not only does it make more sense, it also matches bootstrap and
	others.
	* libtoolize.m4sh, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh,
	libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh, tests/defs.m4sh (opt_debug): Rename
	to debug_cmd.

2011-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: dynamically strip unused scripts from libltdl Makefile.

	* configure.ac (pkgaux_scripts): Centrally maintain the complete
	list of aux scripts required to build libltdl, and which need to
	be installed by libtoolize --ltdl, and consequently need to be
	placed in $pkgdatadir by make install.
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/stamp.mk): Improved to strip the unused
	scripts not listed in pkgaux_scripts without the need for manual
	synchronisation.
	(auxexefiles): Removed. Replaced by new pkgaux_scripts
	substitution.
	(install-data-local): Adjust.

2011-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: substitute paths into defs.m4sh instead of recalculating.

	* Makefile.am (configure_edit): Add substitutions for aux_dir,
	macro_dir and srcdir.
	* tests/defs.m4sh: Don't recalculate srcdir.
	(aux_dir, macro_dir, srcdir): Convert to absolute paths.

2011-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: support AM_SILENT_RULES

	* configure.ac: Add AM_SILENT_RULES.
	* libltdl/configure.ac: Ditto, but only if defined.
	* Makefile.am (.version, ChangeLog, README, doc/notes.txt)
	(libtool, libtoolize, libtoolize.in, libltdl/Makefile.am)
	(libltdl/stamp-mk, m4/ltversion.m4, tests/atconfig, tests/defs)
	(tests/defs.in, tests/package.m4): Output an AM_SILENT_RULES-like
	GEN when V==0.
	* libltdl/Makfile.inc (libltdl/argz.h): Ditto.

2011-10-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: add autobuild prerequisite only if autobuild.m4 is absent.

	* bootstrap (func_require_autobuild_buildreq): Skip if autobuild.m4
	is already present.
	* bootstrap.conf (require_autobuild_bulidreq): No need to set this
	specially any more.

2011-10-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: ensure bootstrap runs from dist tarball.

	* bootstrap (func_gnulib_tool_copy_file): When gnulib-tool is
	not available, check that there is a copy of the file from a
	previous run available before bailing out with a diagnostic.
	(func_install_gnulib_non_module_files): Don't diagnose missing
	files explicitly - func_gnulib_tool_copy_file takes care of it
	now.
	(func_require_checkout_only_file): In the diagnostic for
	not being in a source-controlled tree, note that `--force' must
	be used to rebootstrap.
	(func_require_gnulib_files_already_present): Removed.  All the
	necessary checks are correctly performed in
	func_gnulib_tool_copy_file withot resorting to heuristics.
	(func_require_gnulib_mk): Don't continue to try to access
	gnulib-cache.m4 after discovering we're running from a dist
	tarball.
	(func_require_dotgitmodules_parameters): Skip if .gitmodules
	file is missing and git binary is not available.
	* bootstrap.conf (checkout_only_file): Set to HACKING, which is
	a non-distributed file.
	(libtool_cleanup_empty_dirs): Don't print spurious errors when
	trying to delete gnulib-tool droppings, in case gnulib-tool is
	not available on this run.

2011-10-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: add a keyword `expensive' to very long running tests.

	* tests/cmdline_wrap.at, tests/stresstest.at (AT_KEYWORDS): Add
	`expensive'.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-10-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtoolize: fix some long-standing sed substitution bugs

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_fixup_Makefile): `\\\\\$' in a " quoted
	script that is evaluated twice before execution becomes a `\$',
	which sed interprets as a literal $.  The script will then delete
	any lines with a first non-whitespace character of `$'. Instead
	use `\\\\$' in single quotes, which sed eventually receives as
	`\\$' and correctly interprets as part of an instruction to
	delete otherwise empty lines ending with a `\'.
	Additionally the rest of the same sed script is no longer
	applied to comment lines to avoid munging the copyright header
	among others.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-10-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use gnulib's gitlog-to-changelog instead of a ChangeLog file.

	* ChangeLog: Removed.
	* HACKING (Editing 'ChangeLog'): Removed. Renumbered other sections to
	compensate.
	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gitlog-to-changelog.
	* Makefile.am (ChangeLog): Generate the ChangeLog for 2011...
	(dist-hook): ...from the output of `git log' before rolling a
	distribution tarball.

2011-10-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use gnulib's git-version-gen instead of mkstamp.

	* libltdl/config/mkstamp: File removed.
	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add git-version-gen.
	* configure.ac (AC_INIT, package_revision): Use git-version-gen to
	calculate version number.
	(TIMESTAMP): Removed.
	* libtoolize.m4sh, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/m4/libtool.m4
	(TIMESTAMP): Ditto.
	* Makefile.am (TIMESTAMP): Ditto.
	(MKSTAMP): Renamed from this...
	(git_version_gen): ...to this. Set revision here.  An alpha is now a
	release with an odd micro relase number.
	(rebuild): Don't reset revision here.
	(build_scripts): Remove mkstamp, add git-version-gen.
	(EXTRA_DIST, BUILT_SOURCES): Add .version.
	(libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, tests/package.m4):
	Don't depend on configure.ac or ChangeLog to determine when the
	version number has reved, use .version directly.
	(.version): Flush most recent configure calculated VERSION to disk.
	(dist-hook): Flush current VERSION to disk at dist time.
	(dotserial): Distributed file to cache the serial number for
	when git is not available to recalculate it when building from a
	release tarball.
	(dist-hook): Make sure .serial is created.
	(libltdl/config/ltversion.m4): Use .serial when it is present
	(in a dist tarball) or calculate with git otherwise (in a git
	working directory).
	(EXTRA_DIST): Add .serial file.

2011-10-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use gnulib's maint.mk and support scripts release procedure.

	* Makefile.maint: Removed.
	* configure.ac (LASTRELEASE, lt_major, lt_minor, lt_micro, lt_alpha):
	All removed. Makefile.maint was the only client.
	* HACKING (Release Procedure): Removed.
	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add announce-gen,
	do-release-commit-and-tag, gendocs, gnu-web-doc-update, gnupload and
	readme-release.
	* cfg.mk (manual_title): Set it for web-manual rule.
	(announcement_Cc_): Release announcement email addresses.
	* Makefile.am (build_scripts): Add to EXTRA_DIST additional files
	imported from gnulib for maint.mk release procedure.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2011-10-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: ensure VPATH autom4te search path can find autotests.

	* Makefile.am (tests/testsuite): Passing only $(srcdir) include path
	to autom4te is unable to find tests/package.m4, and passing only
	$(srcdir)/tests breaks VPATH build searches for TESTSUITE_AT files,
	which are relative to $(srcdir)... so we pass both!
	* NEWS: Updated.
	Reported by Bob Friesenhahn.

2011-10-24  Karl Berry  <karl@gnu.org>

	doc: modernize libtool.texi.

	* libtool.texi (@copying): Use this instead of @ifnottex; format for
	Texinfo; eliminate obsolete paragraph about TeX; use @insertcopying
	instead of duplicating text.
	(@syncodeindex): Move all to the Texinfo header, where they belong.
	(@dircategory): Use "Software development" instead of "GNU programming
	tools", for consistency; and align individual entries to avoid
	multiple lines; and move to after the copyright message.

2011-10-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: don't make autobuild a hard bootstrap requirement.

	* bootstrap.conf (require_autobuild_buildreq): Reset this to ':' so
	that bootstrap doesn't auto-add autobuild to $buildreq.

2011-10-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use gnulib's maintainer-makefile module.

	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add maintainer-makefile.
	(gnulib_tool_options): Add --avoid=dummy now that we have a real
	module to import.
	* cfg.mk: New file. Customize maint.mk for Libtool.
	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add GNUmakefile, cfg.mk and maint.mk.

	its configure time checks.
	* .gitmodules (gnulib): New file with configuration for our
	gnulib git submodule.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: tidy, sort and consolidate .gitignore files.

	The `gnulib-tool' and gnulib `bootstrap' scripts  maintain
	`.gitignore' files in asciibetical order, so reorder them now
	to avoid spurious patches later.

	Take advantage of putting recursive file ignore matches into
	`$top_srcdir/.gitignore' and remove repetitions from other
	`.gitignore' files.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: don't run help2man on programs not-yet-built.

	* Makefile.am (doc/libtool.1, doc/libtoolize.1): Added a
	comment about why the dependencies here have to be a mite
	bizarre.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: remove unused `aux_dir' variable from `getopt-m4sh.test'.

	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at (aux_dir): Remove unused variable.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	tests: DRYing out `tests/sh.test'.

	* Makefile.am (libtool_m4): Canonical location of libtool.m4 file.
	(lt_aclocal_m4_deps): Use it.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: pass directory declarations in configure.ac into Makefile.

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR)
	(AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): Append code to these functions to
	capture and propagate their directory arguments to Makefile.
	* Makefile.am (aux_dir, ltdl_dir, macro_dir): Remove declarations.
	* bootstrap (my_sed_trace): Also capture LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR into
	`$ltdl_dir'.
	<Makefile>: Output the extracted values of `aux_dir', `ltdl_dir'
	and `macro_dir' at the top of the quick'n'dirty bootstrap
	Makefile.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: factor out ltmain.sh variable deletion.

	* Makefile.am (ltmain_sh_edit): Expand upon bootstrap edit by
	adding the extra line to delete boilerplate variable settings
	from libltdl/config/general.m4sh that don't apply here.
	(libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Use it.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: DRYing out `Makefile.am' file paths.

	* Makefile.am (aux_dir, macro_dir): Include `$(srcdir)' in
	declaration. Adjust all references.
	(doc_dir, ltdl_dir, m4sh_dir, tests_dir): New single location
	to hold directory paths, all including `$(srcdir)', to reduce
	typing.
	(LT_M4SH): Use `$m4sh_dir' as include directory.
	(defs): This one is for a file in the build-tree, so no
	leading `$(srcdir)'.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	CLEANUP: fix error from pushing too far up the branch.

	* Makefile.am (install-data-local): Undo character transposition
	from too early push of untested v2.4-17-gaf74d58.
	* ChangeLog (2010-09-16): Remove spurious entry.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use macro_dir consistently in all files.

	* Makefile.am: Replace all uses of m4dir with macrodir to
	match AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR.
	* libltdl/config/libtoolize.m4sh: Replace all uses of macrodir
	with macro_dir.
	* tests/defs.m4sh, tests/sh.test: Likewise.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: use aux_dir consistently in all files.

	* Makefile.am, Makefile.maint: Replace all uses of auxdir
	with aux_dir to match AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR.
	* libltdl/config/libtoolize.m4sh: Likewise.
	* tests/defs.m4sh, tests/getopt-m4sh.at: Likewise.

2011-10-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Makefile: try to be robust against shell meta-chars in filenames.

	* Makefile.am: In each rule body, unless a make variable needs
	to be seen as multiple words by the shell (for word-splitting
	loops, or because it contains several commands), quote it. Use
	single quotes unless the shell needs to perform variable inter-
	polation, in which case use double quotes.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: let make employ user's `SED' setting.

	* Makefile.am: Replace hard-coded `sed' with `$(SED)' through-
	out.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: simplify and improve safety of bootstrap process.

	* Makefile.am (bootstrap_files): List files that need to be
	generated at bootstrap time before `./configure && make' can
	work.  It turns out that this is considerably fewer files than we
	had thought necessary previously.
	(bootstrap-deps-prep): Ensure minimum set of required substitution
	variables are non-empty.
	(bootstrap-deps): Depend on `bootstrap' files.
	* bootstrap (Generate bootstrap dependencies): Now that
	`Makefile.am' is entirely responsible for rebuilding files at
	bootstrap time, we need only specify the new `bootstrap-deps'
	target, and supply values for the substitutions checked by
	`bootstrap-deps-prep'.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): `libtoolize.in' is not here yet
	right after running `bootstrap'.  So rely on the presence of
	`libltdl/config/libtoolize.m4sh', which is always there.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: eliminate superfluous temporary files from `Makefile.am'.

	* Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Remove temporary file entries.
	(libtoolize.in, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
	(tests/defs, tests/testsuite): Factor away temporary files.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: eliminate `ltmain.in' and `libtoolize.in' intermediate files.

	* Makefile.am (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libtoolize.in): Pipe
	the output of `$(LT_M4SH)' directly into `$(bootstrap_edit)' to
	avoid use of superfluous intermediate file.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: don't hardcode repeated long paths in Makefile rules.

	According to the DRY principle, scattering several copies of
	something across a file or project leads to pain.  Let's not
	do that!
	* Makefile.am (Makefile_in, Makefile_inc, defs_in, defs_m4sh),
	(libtoolize_in, ltmain_m4sh, ltversion_in): New variables to
	hold the location of important files and targets.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Add the distributed ones by variable.
	(libtoolize, libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
	(libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/stamp-mk, tests/defs)
	(tests/defs.in): Use the new variables to reduce noise and
	repetition.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: make better use of automatic variables in `Makefile.am'.

	* Makefile.am (libtoolize, libtoolize.in, libltdl/Makefile.am)
	(libltdl/config/mkstamp, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh)
	(libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, tests/testsuite, tests/defs.in):
	Make better use of automatic variables.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: name temporary files in `Makefile.am' consistently.

	Sadly, we still have to jump through hoops for MICROS~1's very
	old, very broken 8.3 naming convention, so we have to be careful
	to be unique in the first 8 letters, and not to use two periods
	in a filename, otherwise we could use the much more elegent
	`temporary files use "$@T"' idiom:
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4): Rename temporary file
	to `ltversion.tmp'.
	(libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Rename temporary file to
	`libltdl/config/ltmain.tmp'.
	(libtoolize): Rename temporary file to `libtoolize.tmp'.
	(tests/defs): Rename temporary file to `tests/defs.tmp'
	(tests/testsuite): Rename temporary file to `tests/testsuite.tmp'.
	(CLEANFILES): Append temporary files as we create rules that
	use them.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: factor Makefile.am `m4sh' invocations to LT_M4SH.

	* Makefile.am (LT_M4SH): Now that all directories are listed as
	fully qualified paths, the search path argument to M4SH is always
	the same, so factor it out into a variable.  Adjust all callers.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: avoid unnecessary directory changes in Makefile rules.

	* Makefile.am (doc/notes.txt, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4,
	(libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libtoolize.in, libltdl/Makefile.am)
	(libltdl/config/mkstamp, tests/testsuite, tests/defs.in): Avoid
	unnecessary `cd' commands by using fully qualified paths to files
	outside of current directory.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: compare `revision' rather than `correctver' in Makefile.am.

	* Makefile.am (rebuild): Set the shell variable `revision' rather
	than `correctver' for clarity of purpose.
	(bootstrap_edit, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Adjust.
	(libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4): Likewise, and alse, instead of munging
	the serial number comment line with set, extract `macro_version'
	from this file, and compare it directly with `revision'.
	(libtool): Likewise for `package_revision'.

2011-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	build: avoid spurious bootstrap_edit call.

	* Makefile.am (tests/package.m4): @FOO@ substitutions have already
	been made by the time Makefile.am has been transformed into Makefile,
	so don't try to rerun the substitutions manually with
	$(bootstrap_edit) after the fact.

2011-10-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Post-release administrivia.

	* configure.ac, libltdl/configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version

	* THANKS: Update.

2011-03-22  Justin Lecher  <jlec@gentoo.org>  (tiny change)
	    Rhys Ulerich  <rhys.ulerich@gmail.com>

	Don't filter OPENMP flags (-openmp & -fopenmp) from linker lines.
	If -fopenmp if passed to gcc during linking, it will take care to
	add all necessary libs to link correctly for openmp support.
	Currently libtool filters those flags, similar as it was the
	case with the threading flags. This change handles the situation
	for the openmp support similar as before the thread support
	was fixed.
	  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2010-12/msg00009.html
	  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2011-03/msg00014.html

	flags like pthreads flags.

	* THANKS: Update.
	Report from Jan Engelhardt.

2010-10-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool: remove redundant unsubstituted shell var defaults.
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Boilerplate code from
	libltdl/config/general.m4 sets some default shell variables
	designed to be substituted by `$(configure_edit)'.  Actually,
	`libtool' uses the language tag values for those variables, and
	`ltmain.m4sh' is not passed through `$(configure_edit)', so they
	are just noise.  Edit them out at bootstrap time.

2010-10-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	maint: don't leak developer GREP, SED etc into distribution file.
	* Makefile.am: Having rearranged the file, now apply the actual

	(edit): Split into two parts...
	(bootstrap_edit): ...substitutions that should happen at bootstrap
	time...
	(configure_edit): ...and substitutions that should not happen until
	configure time.
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh)
	(libtoolize.in, tests/package.m4): Use bootstrap_edit.

	* THANKS: Update.
	Report by Paul Laight.

	Fix bindir check logic, and relax non-bindir case for AIX.
	* tests/bindir.at (bindir install tests): Rewrite checks for
	place of the installed shared library in two separate tests,
	depending on whether -bindir is supposed to have an effect or
	not.  In the positive case, make the test stricter so that we
	reject libraries in $libdir.  In the negative case, do not
	require a major version number in the $libdir file name, for AIX
	without runtimelinking.  If tmpdir creation fails, skip the
	test.  Use fewer bindir directory names for testing, to speed
	up the test.  Also mention MSVC style DLL name in comment.
	Report by Peter Rosin.

	tests: remove unneeded 'bindir compile check' test.

	* configure.ac, libltdl/configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version
	numbers.
	* NEWS: Update version number.

	manual: web-manual index.html clashes with @node Index.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Index): Renamed to `Combined Index'.

	tests: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'v1' with no type.
	* tests/lt_dlexit.at (lt_dlexit unloading libs): Added an

	names with spaces.  Convert those directory names to the short
	8.3 DOS form (i.e. without spaces) when storing them in
	sys_lib_search_path_spec, as that is a space separated variable.

2010-09-21  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Revert to per-language libpath computation on AIX.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_MODULE_PATH_AIX): Accept

	* libltdl/config/edit-readme-alpha: If README is non-writable
	assume that it is being run from distcheck, and skip the edit
	with a warning (to help diagnose cases where the heuristic is
	not correct).  However, if README has already been edited to
	the alpha text, quietly skip without an error message.

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): Move the
	declaration of lt__PROGRAM__LTX_preloaded_symbols to global
	scope and make sure it has "C" linkage.  Makes exceptions.at
	succeed on MSVC.

2010-09-20  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	tests: __declspec (dll{ex,im}port) in tests/exceptions.at
	* tests/exceptions.at (common.h, module.h, lib.h) [w32]: Use

	Fix order of PATH manipulation in cwrapper and shwrapper
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src:main): Call

	Prefer $NM @file when the toolchain isn't native to $build.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Avoid calculating
	the command line length and take the @file branch *if* the file
	names needs to be converted for the toolchain and the @file
	branch works.  Fixes problems in stresstest.at when doing a cross
	from Cygwin to MinGW using MinGW native tools (a.k.a. a "faked"
	cross), and for the specific case of MSVC on Cygwin it makes the
	test pass.

	index entries generated from these lines.
	(Cheap tricks): Use @smallexample rather than @example, to avoid
	long lines.

	docs: @file and @option markup fixes.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Creating object files, Linking libraries)

	to require a final newline.  Fixes testsuite failures with zsh
	4.3.10.

2010-09-12  Charles Wilson  <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>

	When assigning $linklib value, honor [-all]-static[-libtool-libs]

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): When prefer_static_libs
	and static library exists, ensure old_library name is used as $linklib.

	containing the exports and the output file name.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Precalculate the
	toolchain format of the output_objdir file name and store it in

	and inner $MAKE invocations can't connect to the job server.
	Fixes spurious failures of configure-iface.at and of
	demo-noinst-link tests with BSD and Tru64 make if the user uses
	'make -k', as the exit status of the latter is not reliable.

	Remove announce-gen.m4sh and mailnotify.m4sh.
	* libltdl/config/announce-gen.m4sh: Removed.  This script has
	no apparent connection to libtool functionality, and mostly
	duplicates the better maintained gnulib announce-gen script.
	* libltdl/config/mailnotify.sh: Removed. This script was used
	by only clcommit.m4sh and announce-gen.m4sh, both of which are
	now removed too.
	* Makefile.maint (announce-gen, libltdl/config/mailnotify):
	Targets removed.
	* bootstrap: Remove the mailnotify regeneration warning.
	* HACKING (Release Procedure): Remove references to
	announce-gen.
	(Alpha release note template, Full release note template):
	Reinstated from before announce-gen was introduced.

	Remove clcommit.m4sh.
	* clcommit.m4sh: Removed. This script was written to help keep
	ChangeLog and commit messages in sync when committing to CVS,
	and is an anachronism now that Libtool uses git.
	* Makefile.maint (commit): Target removed.
	* bootstrap: Don't generate commit.
	* HACKING (Release Procedure): Adjusted.

2010-08-31  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	archive-in-archive.at passes with Microsoft lib.
	* tests/archive-in-archive.at: Tighten test to check that the desired
	object files are indeed part of the archive. Microsoft lib still
	passes, so remove the expected failure for that case.

	Dump archiver output to the log when testing @file support.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Redirect stdout to config.log
	when testing for @file support.
	Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.

	Silence archiver output when testing @file support.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Redirect stdout and stderr
	to the bit bucket when testing for @file support.

2010-08-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Remove double `Generated from foo.m4sh' lines.
	We now require a modern Autoconf to bootstrap libtool, which
	will add the `Generated by ...' boiler-plate automatically,
	so we can remove the hand-rolled @configure_input@
	substitutions we had been doing:
	* clcommit.m4sh, libtoolize.m4sh, tests/defs.sh,
	libltdl/config/announce-gen.m4sh, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh,
	libltdl/config/mailnotify.m4sh: Remove @configure_input@.
	* Makefile.am (edit): Remove configure_input substitution.
	(libtoolize, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
	(tests/defs): Don't set `$input' shell variable.
	* Makefile.maint (announce_gen, libltdl/config/mailnotify)
	(commit): Likewise.

2010-08-31  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	Extract the archive name from the .la file and use $AR (not ar).
	* Makefile.am: Pass AR through to the testsuite.
	* tests/archive-in-archive.at: Bump copyright year. Extract archive
	name from the .la file instead of hardcoding the name, and allow
	different archivers. Also clarify that the tested functionality is
	currently broken.

2010-08-30  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	tests: skip -Wall -Werror with Tru64 cc in cwrapper test.
	* tests/cwrapper.at (cwrapper for uninstalled executables):
	Use a link test rather than a compile test to flesh out unknown
	compiler flags starting with -W; Tru64/OSF1 cc will happily
	accept `-Wall -Werror' as indication to pass flags on to
	subprocesses.

	tests: avoid getopt-m4sh failures when autom4te is not available.
	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_GETOPT_M4SH_SETUP):
	Check $M4SH --version, skip on failure.

	tests: mark 'syntax of .la files' as XFAIL, expose failure.
	* tests/lalib-syntax.at (syntax of .la files): Assert that the
	string returned by lt_dlerror after a failure is non-NULL, so
	the failure shows up on systems other than Solaris.  Mark test
	as expected to fail.
	Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.

2010-08-30  Eric Blake  <eblake@redhat.com>

	Simplify recent configure quoting portability workaround.
	* configure.ac: Simplify setting of timestamp_string.

	comments and warning message.
	(func_convert_path_check): Update warning message.

2010-08-29  Peter Rosin  <peda@lysator.liu.se>

	Fix typo when renaming path conversion functions.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Ensure to_host_file_cmd is passed as a
	variable setting on the configure line for (new testsuite) tests.

2010-08-29  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Support GCC LTO on GNU/Linux.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Allow through
	flags matching -O*, -flto*, -fwhopr, -fuse-linker-plugin.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Drop symbols
	starting with __gnu_lto.
	(_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [linux] <archive_cmds, archive_expsyms_cmds>:
	Add $pic_flag for GCC.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [linux] <archive_cmds, archive_expsyms_cmds>:
	Likewise.
	(_LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS): Ignore files matching *.lto.o.
	* NEWS: Update.

	Disable GCC LTO for verbose library extraction.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS): Temporarily
	append -fno-lto or -fno-whopr to CFLAGS if CC or CFLAGS (which
	are substituted with the per-language variables here) contain
	-flto or match -fwhopr*, respectively.

	Save and restore CFLAGS properly inside libtool.m4 macros.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Use different
	temporary variables for saved and restored values of $LIBS,
	$CFLAGS, to avoid overlap with the *_CONFIG macros.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_F77_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_FC_CONFIG)
	(_LT_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Also save and restore
	$CFLAGS, and override it with per-language flags, so that in
	case output_verbose_link_cmd uses $CFLAGS, the right flags are
	used.

	Work around yet another shell quoting portability issue.
	* configure.ac: Avoid nonportable quoted alternate variable
	value in unquoted here document, so Solaris 10 sh and Tru64
	ksh do not print spurious extra quotes.

	Silence order-only configure test for AIX make.
	* configure.ac: Also drop standard output, for AIX 5.1 make.

2010-08-28  Charles Wilson  <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>

	Minor sysroot fixups.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_WITH_SYSROOT): Fix typo.

	(_LT_SETUP): Require it.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Ensure to_host_file_cmd is passed as a
	variable setting on the configure line for (new testsuite) tests.
	* Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Ensure to_host_file_cmd is
	included so that it is passed to (old testsuite) tests.
	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh: Define $lt_sed_naive_backslashify here.

2010-08-28  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Fix symlist variable path to use _WIN32 instead of __WINDOWS__.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/libltdl/lt_system.h,
	libltdl/m4/libtool.m4, tests/demo/foo.h, tests/pdemo/foo.h:
	Change __WINDOWS__ to _WIN32.
	Report by Charles Wilson.

	Add $pic_flag to archive_cmds and archive_expsym_cmds.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS)
	<archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds>
	[GNU ld, netbsd]: Add $pic_flag if ELF.
	[GNU ld, solaris]: Likewise.
	[GNU ld, default case]: Likewise.
	[!GNU ld, freebsd, dragonfly]: Add $pic_flag.

	[osf4, osf5]: Likewise.
	[solaris]: Add $pic_flag if $GXX and not GCC 2.7.

	Uniform const'ness of symlist variable lt_preloaded_symbols.
	On some systems, lt_preloaded_symbols may not be declared
	const due to relocation issues.  C99 requires qualification to
	match for compatible declarations, so ensure we declare
	const'ness in the same way everywhere; link-time optimization
	may otherwise rightfully complain about inconsistencies.
	Since ltdl.h may not depend upon config.h, rely on system
	defines for choosing const'ness.
	* NEWS: Update.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Dlpreopening): Document this issue.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms):

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): IRIX ar will not fail
	over a command-line argument specifying a nonexistent file (such
	as `@FILE'), so ensure failure with a reponse file containing
	a nonexistent file.  Also, use lt_* variable prefix for
	temporary variables.

	Fix AC_LANG_PROGRAM warnings from git Autoconf.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_MODULE_PATH_AIX): Fix
	underquoted AC_LANG_PROGRAM call.
	(LT_PROG_AR): Use AC_LANG_PROGRAM.
	(_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [irix, GCC]: Use the right source for the
	given language.
	* NEWS: Update.

2010-08-22  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	fix AIX testsuite regression
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_resolve_sysroot): Partly

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_finish): Split arguments for
	directories and *.la files.

	fix sysroot handling for deplibs of preopened libtool libs

	and -l flags will now always be separated from the rest of the argument.

	handle sysrooted paths when reading dependencies to la files
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_execute, func_mode_install,
	func_mode_link): Whenever a .la file occurs in another .la file,

2010-07-28  Paolo Bonzini  <bonzini@gnu.org>

	teach libtool -L= and -R=
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_resolve_sysroot): New.
	(func_mode_link): Always pass result of stripping -L and -R to
	func_resolve_sysroot before using it.  Remove absolute path expansion
	when func_resolve_sysroot subsumes it.  Expand sysroot in -rpath.
	When processing dependent libraries also resolve sysroot paths there.

	add --with-sysroot
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_HOST_NONCANONICAL, _LT_WITH_SYSROOT): New.

	Prompted by suggestion from Bob Friesenhahn.

	New alias scripts for old tests run more than once.

	so shared libraries are not kept in memory after execution.
	Fixes failures of repeated mdemo-inst.test with on AIX 5.3.

2010-08-21  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Skip part of versioning test on AIX.
	* tests/versioning.at (versioning): The AIX linker always
	records the unversioned library name, even with runtimelinking,
	so skip the execution test for the incompatibly upgraded
	library.
	Report by Rainer Tammer.

	Remove dead code from versioning test.
	* tests/versioning.at (versioning): No need to build unused
	prog3.

	archiver_list_spec.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: If the archiver supports a listing
	file, use it when max_cmd_len is exceeded.  This is needed for
	tool chains such as MSVC which do not support piece by piece
	linking (-r -o).
	* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Update with
	archiver_list_spec description.

2010-08-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>  (tiny change)

	Fix testsuite errors due to shell quoted parameter expansion issue.
	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_GETOPT_M4SH_SETUP): Insert space
	between double-quoted and unquoted shell parameter, as bash
	4.0.28 doesn't add one in its output if the expansion of the
	second one starts with a space.
	(short option splitting, enhanced shell short option splitting)
	(long option splitting, XSI long option splitting): Add space in
	expected output.
	Fixes testsuite failures on AIX, FreeBSD, etc.

	If that fails, use $sharedlib_from_linklib_cmd to extract DLL
	name from import library directly. Also, properly extract dlsyms
	from the import library.
	(func_mode_link) [cygwin|mingw]: Prefer to dlpreopen DLLs
	over static libs when both are available.  When dlpreopening
	DLLs, use linklib (that is, import lib) as dlpreopen file,
	rather than DLL. Store name of associated la file in
	unique variable libfile_$(transliterated implib name)

	For MSVC, embed the manifest as a resource in the executable.
	Fixes a lot of testsuite failures with MSVC 2003 (v8.0) and
	above (and perhaps also MSVC .Net) related to running programs
	that have been moved (e.g. installed) without their manifests
	also having been moved.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PATH_MANIFEST_TOOL): New macro
	that locates the Manifest Tool (mt) and verifies that it is

	(_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) <postlink_cmds>: New tag variable.
	[ cygwin, mingw, cegcc ] <cl*>: Embed the manifest file as a

	(LT_INIT): Add that the MANIFEST_TOOL environment variable can
	be used to override the manifest tool to use.

2010-07-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Skip `enhanced shell option appending' test when not available.
	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at [enhanced shell option appending]:
	_LT_AT_XSI_FUNC_EXTRACT will not be able to find the enhanced
	libtool func_append function if the replacement wasn't substituted
	by configure, since the decorator comments will be different - in
	that case simply skip the test.

2010-06-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add func_append test cases for smart and retarded implementations.
	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_FALLBACK_FUNC_EXTRACT): New

	func_split_short_opt substitution in favour of a properly
	XSI compliant substitution.
	Suggested by Paolo Bonzini.

2010-06-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add func_append_quoted and do inline func_append substitutions.
	* libtool/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace all occurrences of
	`foo="$foo bar"' with func_append. No decorator comment was
	added since /func_append [a-zA-Z0-9_]* "/ is already an
	excellent match regexp, and additional comments would only
	complicate things.
	(func_append_quoted): New function that quotes a value with
	func_quote_for_eval before appending it.  To avoid quoting the
	whitespace in the passed value, a single whitespace is added
	automatically.  Changed callers where possible.
	* libtool/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Perform a
	`+=' implementation substitution for func_append_quoted.  More
	importantly, systematically replace matching func_append calls
	with inline `+=' when supported (for maximum speed), and
	longhand `foo="$foo bar"' otherwise to avoid the function
	overhead.

	Add an XSI replacement for func_split_short_opt, with test cases.
	* libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4go_shortnoargs): Remove 'v' now
	that getopt.m4sh doesn't steal that letter for the --version
	short option.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (M4SH_GETOPTS): We can now use 'v'
	as a short option for '--verbose'.
	* libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4go_printopts): Add back in the
	leading '-' for remaining non-argument short options.
	(func_split_short_opt): Use the correct sed script variable.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_SHELL_FEATURES): Also ensure
	that XSI substring extraction is supported.
	(_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Use XSI substring extraction to split
	short options to avoid unnecessary forks if the host shell
	supports that.
	* tests/getopt-m4sh.at: New tests for getopt.m4sh coverage.
	* Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add getopt-m4sh.at.
	(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass M4SH and SED for substition into the
	m4sh expansion performed in tests/getopt-m4sh.at.

2010-06-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add missing case branch terminators.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Fixed everal case branches with
	missing ';;' terminators.

	Use TAB-SPACE in preference to SPACE-TAB.

	might optimise away the SPACE in SPACE-TAB sequences, so use
	TAB-SPACE just in case.
	Reported by Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Amend a missed opt_mode rename instance in ltmain.m4sh.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh <mode>: Rename to opt_mode.

	Fix portability regressions in today's earlier changeset.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): `sed -i' is not
	portable; use `mv -f ...|| cp -f ...' instead.
	Add an initial backslash to sed `c' substitutions with leading
	whitespace, so that indentation is not removed by some non-POSIX
	compliant sed implementations.
	(_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Display a diagnostic warning message if
	one or more XSI function replacements failed.

	getopt.m4sh generated libtool option parser, and XSI improvements.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Moved portable
	shell versions of various utility functions from here...
	* libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (func_split_long_opt): ...to here...
	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_dirname, func_basename)
	(func_dirname_and_basename, func_strip_name): ...here...
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_append, func_arith, func_len)
	(func_lo2o, func_xform): ...and here.
	* libltdl/config/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): New macro that
	expands into a sed command for replacing the contents of a
	suitably decorated shell function with an alternate XSI
	implementation.

	versions of the functions above with equivalent XSI
	implementations that avoid unnecessary forks if the host shell
	supports that.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace hand written shell code
	with a call to M4SH_GETOPTS. Rename some option variables in
	the client code to match the generated option parser settings.
	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_echo, func_error)
	(func_warning): Use $opt_mode instead of obsoleted $mode in
	message leader.
	* libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4_version_prereq): This file
	requires m4sugar.m4 from Autoconf-2.61 or newer.

	to accept this; we still require the right link order with the
	correctly linked executable.
	Reported by Roumen Petrov and others.

	this may be a cross-compilation-induced result.
	(LT_AT_NOINST_EXEC_CHECK): Likewise.
	* tests/static.at (static linking flags for programs): Adjust
	calls.
	Report by Roumen Petrov.

	No trailing period in Autotest test group names.

	Reported by Gary Kumfert <kumfert@llnl.gov>

2008-04-19  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Fix testsuite cleanup warnings on AIX with NFS.
	* tests/testsuite.at [ aix ]: Set file mode creation so that
	'others' have no permissions.  Shared libraries are kept in
	memory on AIX after use if they are world-readable, which means
	on NFS mounts cleanup of test group directories will fail later.
	* THANKS: Update.
	Report and analysis by Michael Haubenwallner.

	Fix nonportable use of expr.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link) <Transforming
	deplibs into only shared deplibs>: Fix expr portability issues,
	noted on FreeBSD.  While at it, simplify and avoid forking.
	Report by Bob Friesenhahn.

	Exploit shell arithmetic expansion and ${#var}.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_SHELL_FEATURES): Also check
	for arithmetic expansion, and ${#var}.
	(_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Define func_arith and func_len
	accordingly, falling back on 'expr'.  Note that the argument to
	func_len may not start with a hyphen.  In the pre-Posix
	fallback, take care not to rely on the exit status of the
	variable assignment (not portable), but set the length to
	$max_cmd_len instead.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Use func_arith
	and func_len throughout for integer arithmetic, fixing
	quadratical amount of counting for reloadable object and
	piecewise archive linking.  Change all comparisons with
	max_cmd_len to test for smaller, non-equal length.
	* THANKS: Update.
	Suggested by Roland Mainz.

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_compile): Avoid
	redundant removal of old output files before compilation.
	Do not remove $obj until we have successfully grabbed the
	lockfile (in case the compiler doesn't grok `-c -o'), because
	it might be identical to $output_obj.
	At the end of the function, before we remove the lockfile,
	update $removelist so that if the trap hits after the lockfile
	has been removed, we do not accidentally remove $output_obj that
	does not belong to us.
	(func_write_libtool_object): Use $MV instead of mv.

	Unfortunately, the autoconf implementation of AC_LIBOBJ and
	friends requires all libobjs to be in the same directory, as
	declared by AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.  That might prevent using
	either recursive or nonrecursive libltdl if the parent project
	has libobjs of its own, except that this patch tracks libltdl's
	libobjs in another namespace:

	* libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (_LT_LIBOBJ, _LT_LIBSOURCES): Versions of
	AC_LIBOBJ and AC_LIBSOURCES that save missing sources in a
	ltdl_LIBOBJS automake macro, instead of the global LIBOBJS
	automake macro.  Content of the macros inspired by code from
	gnulib-tool.
	(_LTDL_MODE_DISPATCH): Initialise lt_libobj_prefix in
	nonrecursive mode.
	(LTDL_INIT): Push and pop the new definitions around potential
	sites that call AC_LIBOBJ.  Also, using lt_libobj_prefix,
	initialise ltdl_LIBOBJS and ltdl_LTLIBOBJS.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_fixup_Makefile): Substitute ltdl_LIBOBJS

	There are 5 distinct batches of files that libtoolize might
	install into a project, depending on whether libltdl is
	being installed in subproject mode, and in that case whether
	the parent project shares the config and macro directories
	with the subproject ltdl.  Make a separate function for each
	of those 5 batches (4 new functions below, plus the recently
	factored func_install_pkgltdl_files), and make a clearer
	distinction between when each of them is needed:

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_install_pkgmacro_subproject):
	New function for installing and reporting on m4 files copied
	to a subproject ltdl directory.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_parent): Similar new function for m4
	files copied solely for the use of the parent project,
	including serial checking.
	(func_install_pkgconfig_subproject): New function for
	installing and reporting on config helper files copied to a
	subproject ltdl directory.
	(func_install_pkgconfig_parent): Similar new function for
	config helper files copied solely for the use of the parent
	project, including serial checking.
	(func_install_pkgmacro_files, func_install_pkgconfig_files):
	Rewritten in terms of the above functions.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Adjust test expout's to match newly
	regularized libtoolize output.
	Move parent project pkgconfig files to build-aux directory
	so that progress messages show an obvious difference to
	pkgconfig files installed to subproject `config' directory.
	(nonrecursive ltdl with AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): New test.

2007-06-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add a test to simulate a failure visible on systems which
	need a library prefix like 'lib', such as BeOS.  Fix a number
	of bugs exposed by this test in order for it to pass.
	Currently the prefix is hardcoded as 'lib', as I am not aware
	of systems that require a different prefix:

	* libltdl/loaders/preopen.c (lt_dlpreload_open):  Move error
	condition out of test loop to be sure that each originator is
	tried, instead of erroring out if the first doesn't match.
	Support passing NULL as the originator to load all preloaded
	modules originating in the program itself.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.c (lt_dlloader_dump): New debug function.
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_dlloader_dump): Declare it
	when LT_DEBUG_LOADERS is defined at compile time.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinit): Dump loader list after successful
	initialisation.
	(tryall_dlopen): Add a new VTABLE parameter to force use of a
	specific loader in preference to trying every loader in turn.
	Adjust all callers.
	(try_dlopen): Always see whether a module was preloaded for
	module names with no directory component before searching the
	filesystem for a match.
	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Declare
	a new global_symbol_to_c_name_address_lib_prefix variable.
	(global_symbol_to_c_name_address_lib_prefix): The sed
	expressions to use when a lib prefix is enforced need to be
	slightly different to work with preloaded modules.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms): In order
	to name preloaded symbols correctly for the lookup algorithm
	to work when the loaded module file must be prefixed with lib.
	Use global_symbol_to_c_name_address_lib_prefix when
	need_lib_prefix is other than no.
	* tests/need_lib_prefix.at: New test to check for breakage on
	hosts where need_lib_prefix is unknown.
	* Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add new test.
	* tests/TODO: Note missing tests that would have caught some
	of the latent bugs fixed by this patch.
	* HACKING: Document libltdl keyword.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	foo_ltshwrapper.
	(func_emit_cwrapperexe_src) [main, mingw]: Use _spawnv
	and return child's exit code manually rather than rely on
	broken execv.
	(func_mode_link) [cygwin|mingw]: Don't call dirname and
	basename directly; use func_dirname and func_basename
	when computing cwrapper names.  Use cwrapper to generate
	wrapper script, and use pathname returned by
	func_ltwrapper_scriptname instead of $output.
	(func_mode_link) [NOT cygwin|mingw]: move wrapper script
	generation for non-win32 inside case statement, as default
	case.
	(func_mode_uninstall) [$name's extension != .lo|.la]:
	'clean' mode must handle $file differently if it is a libtool

	(f_e_l_c_s: main): add new option --lt-dump-script, parse argv[]
	for it, and take appropriate action.  Call chase_symlinks()

2007-05-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Without this patch, lt_dlopen always opens modules with symbol
	visibility set according to the underlying implementation.
	Here, we add lt_dlopenadvise() to allow callers to request,
	among other things, local or global symbol visibility from the
	underlying dlloader:

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_DLRESIDENT_FLAG): Removed.
	(LT_DLIS_RESIDENT): Use public is_resident info field.
	(LT_DLIS_SYMLOCAL, LT_DLIS_SYMGLOBAL): New macros to test for
	module symbol visibility status.
	(tryall_dlopen): If vtable->module_open() was able to act on
	either is_symlocal or is_symglobal hints, store that in
	the handle flags.
	(lt_dlopenadvise): New function that works like lt_dlopen(),
	but accepts an advise type to determine whether to ask
	dlloaders to change default symbol visibility.
	(lt_dlopen, lt_dlopenext): Just call lt_dlopenadvise() with
	the correct parameters.
	(lt_dladvise_init, lt_dladvise_destroy): New functions to
	initialize and destroy an advise type hint.
	(lt_dladvise_ext, lt_dladvise_resident, lt_dladvise_local)
	(lt_dladvise_global): Set hints on an advise type.
	(openadvise): Factored out of lt_dlopenadvise.
	(has_library_ext): Factored out of lt_dlopenadvise.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: Declare all of the above.
	(lt_dlinfo): New fields for advise hints.
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_module_open): Add a new
	advise parameter.  Adjust all callers.
	(lt_dladvise): New opaque type for advise hints.
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt__private.h (lt__advise): Declare
	contents of opaque lt_dladvise type.
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt_error.h (CONFLICTING_FLAGS): New error
	for attempts to have local and global symbol visibility at the
	same time.
	* libltdl/loaders/dld_link.c, libltdl/loaders/dyld.c,
	libltdl/loaders/load_add_on.c, libltdl/loaders/loadlibrary.c,
	libltdl/loaders/preopen.c, libltdl/loaders/shl_load.c: Adjust.
	* libltdl/loaders/dlopen.c (RTLD_LOCAL, RTLD_GLOBAL): Try to
	define these symbols if the system has equivalents.
	(vmopen): If unable to act on a caller request to set symbol
	visibility, then unset the relevant hints in the advise type.
	* tests/lt_dladvise.at: New tests for the above.

	The stamp-vcl file rules caused non-gnu make programs to rerun
	parts of the configuration process on each invocation.  Instead
	of relying on a stamp file, we now compare version numbers of
	generated files with the ChangeLog timestamp manually in the
	affected make rules to decide whether regenerating is necessary:

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove stamp-vcl.
	(clean-ltmain-sh): Also remove users' obsolescent stamp-vcl.
	(rebuild): Keep some common code here for...
	(libtool, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh):

2007-03-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Handle argz.m4 specially like ltdl.m4, so
	that it isn't copied unless libltdl is being used.  Copy other
	macro files according to their tagged serial numbers.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Adjust.

2007-03-18  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/mdemo/Makefile.am (libmlib_la_LDFLAGS): Add
	`-export-symbols-regex ".*"' because the convenience libltdl
	uses export markers and thus turns off autoexport on w32.  Fixes
	test failures for Cygwin and MinGW.
	Bug analysis by Charles Wilson.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER)
	(_LT_CHECK_MAGIC_METHOD, _LT_COMPILER_PIC, _LT_LINKER_SHLIBS)
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG, _LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS) [ interix ]: When
	matching for interix, accept version range [3-9] instead of 3.
	* NEWS: Update.
	Report by Martin Koeppe <mkoeppe@gmx.de>.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (LT_PROG_GCJ): Avoid M4 expansion error
	that caused `dnl' to be merged to the previous word.
	* THANKS: Update.
	Report by Steve Ellcey.

2007-03-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Replace literal tab chars in help comment
	with spaces to align columns in --help output.

2007-03-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Also apply the
	symbol filtering for w32 and the include_expsyms feature in the
	case of exceeded command line length.  Fixes test failure on
	MinGW.

	* tests/stresstest.at: For const data object imported from
	shared library, define appropriate macros to expand
	__declspec(dllimport) on w32.  Use two different main objects
	and pick the right one for the link flags we are about to test.
	Fixes test failure on MinGW.

	* tests/export.at: For const data object imported from shared
	library, define appropriate macros to expand
	__declspec(dllimport) on w32.  Fixes test failure on MinGW.

2007-03-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_check_macros): Display m4 quotes correctly
	in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR diagnostics.

	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (M4SH_VERBATIM): New macro to
	simplify m4sh quote quoting in blocks of raw shell code.
	* clcommit.m4sh, libtoolize.m4sh, libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh,
	libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/config/mailnotify.m4sh,
	tests/defs.m4sh: Use it.
	* HACKING (Editing `.m4sh' Files): Mention M4SH_VERBATIM Macro.

2007-02-27  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/lt_dlexit.at: Allow test to pass on static-only systems
	and with disable-shared.

	* NEWS: Rewrite all news since 1.9f and put in categories,
	update.

	* libltdl/Makefile.inc: Fix the file description, so that it
	matches recursive and nonrecursive libltdl setup.
	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/libltdl/Makefile.am): Do not depend
	upon the exact text of the copyright header, just copy until
	the marker line.  Remove the marker lines in the output, and
	adjust the description for subpackage setup.

2007-02-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/libltdl/Makefile.am): Fix regexp typo.

	* clcommit.m4sh: Look in the right directory for helper scripts.

2007-02-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/libltdl/Makefile.am): Fixup regex to
	match Copyright notice change below.

	* HACKING, Makefile.am, Makefile.maint, bootstrap,
	libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/Makefile.inc, libltdl/m4/libtool.m4,
	ltmain.c, tests/cdemo/Makefile.am, tests/demo/Makefile.am,

	tests/mdemo/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo2/Makefile.am,
	tests/pdemo/Makefile.am, tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am: Update
	Copyright notice text to include URL for canonical GPL document.

2007-02-25  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/static.at: Forgot to fix PATH for the first
	func_test_exec invocation.  So factor out into new functions
	func_fix_path and func_restore_path and use those.

	* README: Document the need for GNU make to build Libtool.
	Point the user to the doc/notes.txt file.  In the examples, use
	`gmake' throughout to make it more obvious.  Explain simpler way
	to run both testsuites and either one.  Referring to individual
	tests needs the `tests/' prefix.
	* README.alpha: Likewise.
	* doc/notes.texi: Likewise, document need for GNU make.
	Comment out the FreeBSD make issue for now.

	* tests/static.at: Larger rewrite to make work on w32: Use three
	different prefixes instead of three libdirs, so the moving of
	the DLLs works as expected.  Adjust all code.  Since now
	$libdirI/../bin is distinct from the directory of the installed
	program, take care than on w32 PATH contains the needed bindirs,
	in appropriate order.
	Report by Charles Wilson.

	* Makefile.am (INSTALLCHECK_ENVIRONMENT): Point LTDLINCL and
	LIBLTDL to installed libltdl, so that it is being used by
	the lt_dlexit test.

2007-02-24  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Install mode, libtool script contents):
	Describe current and system-specific DESTDIR limitations.
	* tests/destdir.at: XFAIL if `fast_install' is no.

	* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Fix typo.

	* doc/libtool.texi (Libtool test suite): Mention the new
	testsuite.  Point to README rather than INSTALL for testing
	instructions.
	(Test descriptions): Fix more file names.  Also mention
	cdemo-undef.test, mdemo2-conf.test, mdemo2-exec.test,
	mdemo2-make.test, objectlist.test, pdemo-conf.test,
	pdemo-exec.test, pdemo-inst.test, pdemo-make.test,
	tagdemo-conf.test, tagdemo-exec.test, tagdemo-make.test,
	tagdemo-static.test, tagdemo-shared.test, tagdemo-undef.test,

	f77demo-static.test, f77demo-shared.test, fcdemo-conf.test,
	fcdemo-exec.test, fcdemo-make.test, fcdemo-static.test,
	fcdemo-shared.test.  Describe what they do.
	(When tests fail, Troubleshooting): Mention how to pass options
	to the new test suite.
	* tests/tagdemo/README: Fix description.

	* bootstrap: Also set GREP, FGREP, EGREP, LN_S, when creating a
	preliminary ltmain.sh script.

	* doc/libtool.texi (Test descriptions): Track the grand test
	suite renaming from 2003-10-14 in the tests documentation.
	assign.test is merged into sh.test.  Fix description of sh.test.
	* tests/sh.test: Likewise.

	* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Fix wording of intro a bit.
	<shared, static>: Also describe these default LT_INIT options.
	<AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL>
	<AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL>: Mention deprecated macro names,
	including the respective LT_INIT replacement.
	<AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_ENABLE_SHARED>
	<AC_ENABLE_STATIC>: Document, un-deprecate.  Suggest the
	respective LT_INIT replacement.
	<AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC, AM_ENABLE_SHARED>
	<AM_ENABLE_STATIC>: Document deprecated aliases.
	(Distributing libltdl) <AC_WITH_LTDL, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE>
	<AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE>: Document deprecated aliases.
	* libltdl/m4/ltoptions.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_SHARED)
	(AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Make these AU_ALIASes of
	the respective AC_* macros, so we do not recommend LT_INIT(*) in
	this case.
	(AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC)
	(AC_DISABLE_STATIC): Un-deprecate these.  Remove now-superfluous
	aclocal-1.4 backwards compatibility comments.

	* tests/link-order2.at: Rewrite completely.  Do not use `sin'
	from the math library, there are too many problems with this.
	Instead, use a self-written library, install it without the
	Libtool library file, to emulate a native library in a system
	directory, and adjust $shlibpat_var.  Try overriding its symbol.
	Further, also try an installed `wrong' binary.
	Avoid failing test bits on AIX without runtimelinking and on
	Darwin in some cases, SKIP at the end in this case.
	Analysis by Peter O'Gorman.

	* doc/notes.texi: Mention MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET issue.
	* tests/template.at: Only skip those tests failing on Darwin
	if `-flat_namespace' is used by libtool.  In that case, SKIP
	at the end.  Analysis by Peter O'Gorman.

2007-02-23  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Fix -export-symbols and -export-symbols-regex for links that
	exceed the command line length and use convenience archives.

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Avoid grepping a
	nonexistent file if using reloadable objects.  Do not create a
	linker script nor a linker input file if no objects are passed.
	Apply export_symbols_regex in case the command line length is
	exceeded.
	Report by Bob Friesenhahn.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS)
	<compiler_needs_object>: New tag variable.  Default to `no'.
	(_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [ linux ]: Set it to yes for Sun C 5.9.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Also default it to `no'.
	[ linux ]: Set it to `yes' for Sun C++ 5.9.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): If we link
	no objects but only convenience archives into a library,
	force expansion if `compiler_needs_object' is yes.
	For creating a linker input filelist due to long cmdline,
	extract the first object if `compiler_needs_object' is yes.
	* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Document it.
	Fixes test failures of Sun compilers on GNU/Linux.
	Report by Terry D. Dontje.

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Avoid setting
	`$libobjs' to a single space; set it to empty in that case.

2007-02-23  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms) [ osf5 ]:
	On Tru64 5.1, const relocations do not work well.  Omit the
	const here.  Fixes failure of demo-make after demo-shared with
	link editor error `seg_info_ptr: Couldnt find a seg type 2'.

	* Makefile.am (doc_libtool_TEXINFOS): Renamed from...
	(libtool_TEXINFOS): ...this, to fix dependencies.  Omit from
	EXTRA_DIST.
	(check-local): Also depend upon $(bin_SCRIPTS).

2007-02-23  Ralf Menzel  <menzel@ls6.cs.uni-dortmund.de>  (tiny change)

	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (sed_double_backslash): Fix
	hacky sed script to avoid limitations but retain portability to
	Solaris /bin/sed.  Remove old obsolete cruft.

2007-02-22  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Fix the check for
	convenience archives when warning about linking against static
	libraries: test against $deplib rather than empty $lib.

2007-02-19  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Fix detection of new enough
	libltdl by actually checking for the declaration of
	lt_dlinterface_register in ltdl.h with AC_CHECK_DECL.
	Remove redundant configure output line.

	* tests/template.at: Reformat, add M4 quoting.  Use $LDFLAGS
	consistently for link mode.

2007-02-18  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/static.at: Use the right names for the broken libs.

2007-02-17  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/deplibs-ident.at [aix, hppa*-*-hpux*, interix, openbsd]:
	Do not XFAIL, on these systems we happen to pass.
	* tests/duplicate_deps.at [aix]: Likewise.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [ linux |
	k*bsd*-gnu ]: Fix eval quoting in the DT_RUNPATH test.

	* HACKING: Update.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [ linux ]
	<whole_archive_flag_spec>: For Sun C/C++ 5.9, do not add
	/dev/null as dummy object, it fails with GNU ld version
	2.16.91.0.7-amd-sles9.  Report by Terry D. Dontje.
	* THANKS: Update.

2007-02-14  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [ osf4, osf5 ]
	<archive_expsym_cmds>: Use `${wl}-input' not `-input', for
	cc.  Could use `-input_to_ld'.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [ osf4, osf5 ] <archive_expsym_cmds>:
	Use `${wl}' instead of `-Wl,', for consistency.

2007-02-12  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Fix spurious testsuite failures on AIX due on NFS mounts due to
	shared library images that cannot be removed without `slibclean'
	which needs superuser privileges.

	* tests/testsuite.at (PREPARE_TESTS): Define $mkdir_p globally.
	(LT_AT_MVDIR): New macro to emulate `mv dir dest'.
	* tests/destdir.at: Use LT_AT_MVDIR.
	* tests/shlibpath.at: Likewise.
	* tests/static.at: Likewise.

2007-02-12  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/export.at: Exporting is not fully functional with
	-retain-symbols-file.  Do not test for failure to link `broken'
	in this case.  At the end of the test, SKIP if we are not fully
	functional.

	* tests/lt_dlexit.at: Add casts and `extern "C"' to let the test
	pass with a C++ compiler.

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Remove duplicate marker for
	generated shell functions.

	* tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_NOINST_EXEC_CHECK): New macro, like
	LT_AT_EXEC_CHECK but uses `$LIBTOOL --mode=execute' and allows
	to pass `-dlopen MODULE' arguments.
	* tests/lt_dlexit.at: Use it.  Also, do not test `-dlpreopen',
	that currently needs library names to begin with `lib'.

2007-02-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/export.at: New test: expose -export-symbols failure
	when the input consists solely of convenience archives, and
	failure to not export all symbols when the command line length
	is exceeded.
	* Makefile.am: Adjust.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): New substituted
	function `func_lo2o', saving two fork&exec with XSI shells.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_compile)
	(func_mode_install, func_mode_link): Use it for rewrites of
	single files.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): New function
	func_opt_split, for XSI and portable shell.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Move the insertion point for the
	configure-generated shell functions to before the first option
	parsing loop.  Rewrite the separation of the long options to use
	func_opt_split.

2007-02-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	Eliminate roughly a third of the script execution time overhead
	for all modes except for link/relink and uninstall/clean.

	* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Remove unused `TEST SUITE
	MARKER', obsolete since 2005-04-17.
	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Likewise, several instances.
	(Main): Tear apart, moving individual bits up as early in the
	script as possible, to help the shell to avoid parsing the rest.

2007-02-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: Update copyright years.

2007-02-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/config/general.m4sh (sed_double_backslash): Replace
	POSIX sed script with a hack that treats up to 10 backslashes
	in the input correctly and is portable to Solaris /bin/sed.

2007-02-08  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	checks for (and suggests) `config' and `m4' instead of

	overwriting the linked-to file instead of removing the symlink.
	- Have `libtoolize --copy' cause current time stamps, so that
	dependents will be rebuilt; for this, install files in order.
	- Fix list of distribution files for (non)recursive libltdl.
	- Fix some failure cases.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_copy_cb):
	If `$opt_link', still copy `aclocal.m4', so a subsequent
	`aclocal' will not overwrite the symlink target.
	In `--copy' mode, do `cp -p' and `touch' for each file, so
	timestamps are updated but permissions preserved.
	(main): Reorder installing of files to match logical order
	and timestamp requirements.
	(func_fixup_Makefile_inc): Renamed to
	(func_fixup_Makefile): this.  Add sed scriptlet to remove
	non-existent files from EXTRA_DIST, for either nonrecursive
	or recursive mode.
	(main): call it to mangle also in recursive mode.
	* tests/libtoolize.at (expout): Adjusted.
	* tests/testsuite.at (tst_dist): Default to `dist'.

	Reported by Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>.

	* README.alpha (Reporting bugs): Suggest to also bootstrap the

	* README (The Test Suite): Likewise.

	In the subpackage case, we do not install Makefile.inc.  Since
	we have to be correct for this case, remove `Makefile.inc' from
	EXTRA_DIST.  Recursive mode does not use it either.  Since
	nonrecursive mode requires an Automake >= 1.7 anyway, and those
	versions automatically distribute included makefile fragments,
	we don't need to cater for that one either.

	* libltdl/Makefile.inc (EXTRA_DIST): Remove Makefile.inc.
	Reorder other entries.

2005-12-16  Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	redistribution within the tests.

	* tests/am-subdir.at (Makefile.am): Put automake options here,
	in AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.  Require 1.6 because of the newer
	`AC_INIT(pkgname,version) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' scheme.
	* tests/nonrecursive.at, tests/recursive.at: Require 1.7,
	because libltdl rules use `+=' in conditionals.
	* tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_AUTOMAKE): Fix indenting.

	* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link):

2005-10-26  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>,
	    Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* Makefile.am (vcl-tmp): Avoid warnings from diff.
	* bootstrap: Avoid warnings from find.
	(lt_tab): Use to prevent editor whitespace "cleanup".

2005-10-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Put back the func_serial_update callback for
	func_copy_some_files so that the testsuite passes again.  We'll
	have to find a better way of handling serial numbers in libtool
	macro files.

	* libltdl/Makefile.inc: New file, factored out of Makefile.am for
	use in non-recursive libltdl installations.
	* bootstrap: Adjust.
	* Makefile.am: include it.
	(libltdl/Makefile.am): Adjust to build from the new
	libltdl/Makefile.inc.
	(SUBDIR_LIBOBJS): Renamed from this...
	(LTDL_SUBDIR_LIBOBJS): ...to this.
	* configure.ac: Adjust.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Invoking libtoolize): Document the new modes
	and libtoolize option to select them.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Parse new options, --nonrecursive, --recursive
	and --subproject.  Install the appropriate files with --ltdl
	according to the selected mode.
	(func_scan_files): If --subproject, --recursive or --nonrecursive
	options were not given, use the value from LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR; if
	a mode was given, and there is also an argument to
	LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR, ensure they are the same.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Don't use func_serial_update as a copy
	function for libtool m4 files with no macro_regex.  If the
	files are copied directly into aclocal.m4, because
	AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR isn't set for example, there is no way
	to tell what serial number goes with what source file.
	(func_serial_update): For future-proofing, only make the second
	serial number check if the destination file wasn't m4_included
	into aclocal.m4 (and hence updated automatically by the cat of
	copying a new version to the dest directory).

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Move the consistency checks...
	(func_check_macros): ...into here.  Also suggest LT_WITH_LTDL if
	appropriate.

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Copying just libtool.m4 for hand maintained
	aclocal.m4 doesn't work.  List all required files in that case,
	using the files from installed libltdl if available.  Also, list
	the additional files required when using libltdl.
	Reported by Patrick Welche <prlw1@newn.cam.ac.uk>.

	* libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlhandle_first): Removed.

	(lt_dlhandle_find, lt_dlforeach): Removed...
	(lt_dlhandle_iterate, lt_dlhandle_fetch, lt_dlhandle_map): Similar
	functions that are multi-loader safe, and require a registered
	interface validator argument.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Updated.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Always copy pkgconfig_files for --ltdl, incase
	ltdl needs additional things not found by automake when looking at
	the parent project configury.
	* tests/libtoolize.at: Adjust.

2005-10-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_AUTOMAKE): New macro.
	* tests/subproject.at: Use it.  Do not call `autoreconf' in
	tests, since it will try to reconfigure `sub/ltdl', which
	breaks `make check' during `distcheck' because of a readonly
	source tree.

	* libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Also set INCLTDL.

	* libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (LTDL_CONVENIENCE, LTDL_INSTALLABLE)

	(LT_WITH_LTDL): Due to order constraints between LTDL_CONVENIENCE,
	LTDL_INSTALLABLE, LT_WITH_LTDL & LTDL_INIT, we can safely AC_SUBST
	LIBLTDL and LTDLINCL here.  Also, remember to synch INCLTDL.

	defer to LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR.
	(AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE): Adjust to upgrade to the new style.
	(LTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): Ditto.
	(LTDL_INIT): lt_ltdl_dir is set by LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR now, and

	upgrade their configure.ac yet, call LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR for them.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_scan_files): If --ltdl option is given

2005-08-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Reorganise the libtool tree to create a bootstrapped libltdl for
	installation to the libtoolize master tree, so that libltdl is
	useable even in the extreme case of when automake and autoconf are
	not installed on the developers machine.  Part of this change
	requires some duplication of rules between Makefile.am (which
	builds libltdl for this distribution) and libltdl/Makefile.am
	(which is used by projects that libltoolize --ltdl --copy), so
	libtool now really does use a single toplevel Makefile.am, and we
	generate libltdl/Makefile.am from that:

	* m4, config: Moved from here...
	* libltdl/m4, libltdl/config: ...to here, to reduce the amount of
	kludging needed in bootstrap for autoreconf to run.
	* tests/cdemo/Makefile.am, tests/demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/depdemo/Makefile.am, tests/f77demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/fcdemo/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo/Makefile.am,
	tests/mdemo2/Makefile.am, tests/pdemo/Makefile.am,
	tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am (ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS): Adjust to
	compensate.
	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
	tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
	tests/fcdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo2/configure.ac, tests/pdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/tagdemo/configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Ditto.
	* libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4: Increment serial number.
	(LTDL_INIT): Accept an optional directory argument to prefix each
	of the LD_DLLOADERS locations.  Default to empty for backwards
	compatibility.
	* Makefile.maint: Adjust to compensate.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): Adjust.
	(AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR): Set here so that we can build LTLIBOBJS
	from in a subdirectory from the amalgamated Makefile.am.
	(AM_PROG_CC_C_O, AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use subdir-objects.
	(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove libltdl/Makefile.am.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: Removed from repository, and merged into
	Makefile.am as we now generate it...
	* Makefile.am (libltdl/Makefile.am): ...from here, by extracting
	the merged rules, and tweaking paths to accomodate the difference
	in directory from Makefile.am to libltdl/Makefile.am.
	(nobase_dist_pkgdata_DATA): Automake generated installation rules
	change timestamps of installed files, so renamed this...
	(configauxfiles): ...to this...
	(libtoolize): ...substitute it...
	(install-data-local): ...install manually, preserving
	timestamps...
	(install-data-hook): ...and set execute bit as appropriate.
	(uninstall-hook): Not forgetting to remove them at uninstall.
	(libltdl/Makefile.in): New rule.  Called from...
	* bootstrap: ...here to avoid relying on config.status at
	bootstrap time.
	(auxdir, m4dir): Extract from configure.ac for ease of future
	maintenance.  Adjust all references.
	(reconfdirs): Call autoreconf for libltdl too -- even
	though we don't use it for the build, libltdl/configure and
	friends are installed with `libtoolize --ltdl --copy'.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Add files from the installed config master tree
	to libtoolize --ltdl project subdirectory.
	Diagnose duplicated files when --ltdl is used in an autotooled
	project.
	It's perfectly fine to run `libtoolize --ltdl --copy' in a tree
	that has no configure.ac or configure.in; we want libltdl to be
	useful even to projects that don't use autotools themselves.
	(libtoolize_flags): Removed.  Changed all callers.
	(func_massage_pkgconfig_files): New function.
	* tests/standalone.at: New tests for using libltdl without
	supporting configury in the parent project.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Run them!

	Since the bootstrap process requires that several of the rules for
	files generated in doc and tests already lived in
	$top_srcdir/Makefile.am, along with proxy rules in sub-Makefiles,
	this changeset consolidates almost everything into the top
	Makefile.am, simplifying things considerably:

	* doc/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Removed.  All rules moved...
	* Makefile.am: ...to here and adjusted to run from $top_builddir.
	Some reformatting to group rules and declarations by purpose, and
	simplify with respect to removing much of the make recursion.
	Add `doc/PLATFORMS', `doc/fdl.texi' and `doc/notes.texi'.
	`defs.in' and `defs.m4sh' are in directory `tests'.
	(uninstall-hook): Don't forget to uninstall libtoolize's libltdl
	source tree.
	* bootstrap: Simplified dirty makefile management, and bootstrap
	file creation in light of having only a single pertinent
	Makefile.
	* configure.ac (CONF_SUBDIRS): Add tests/ prefix to each subdir to
	compensate.
	(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): Adjust.

	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am: Removed actually.

2005-04-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Getting the value of ltdldatafiles from a submake was not
	portable, and had problems with GNU make-3.80 at least.  This
	changeset pulls the installation rules for libtoolize's copy of
	the libltdl sources out of libltdl/Makefile.am so that
	ltdldatafiles is defined in the same Makefile that uses it.  Also,
	this makes a start at cleaning up libltdl/Makefile.am so that it
	is useful in a package that uses `libtoolize --ltdl':

	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am: Removed entirely.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (dlopen.la, dld_link.la, dyld.la)
	(load_add_on.la, loadlibrary.la, shl_load.la): All built from here
	now that the loaders submake has gone.
	(show-ltdldatafiles): Removed.  No longer required.
	(ltdldatadir, ltdldatafiles, install-local): Moved from here...
	* Makefile.am (ltdldatadir, ltdldatafiles, install-local): ..to
	here.
	(libtoolize): Substitute $(ltdldatafiles) directly without calling
	make to get the value from libltdl/Makefile.

2005-04-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (libtoolize): Substitute $(nobase_pkgvdata_DATA).
	pkgvmacro_DATA is no longer set in the makefile.
	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_massage_pkgvmacro_DATA): Use it and, for
	consistency, renamed from this...
	(func_massage_nobase_pkgvdata_DATA): ...to this.  Adjust all
	callers.

2005-04-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Fix problems with serial comparison sed scripts, and factor out
	common code from similar serial comparison functions:

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_keyword_update): Common code factored out
	of func_ltmain_update and func_config_update.
	(func_ltmain_update, func_config_update): Adjust, and fix sed
	expressions to not use unportable ? modifier.
	(func_install_update): New serial number based file updater keyed
	off 'scriptversion' variable in install-sh.  Adjust all callers.

2005-04-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Most of the hair introduced ostensibly to enable testing of
	uninstalled libtoolize isn't necessary if we allow overriding of
	the libtool master copy directory:

	* configure.ac (pkvmacrodir): No need to substitute this.
	* Makefile.am (edit): No need to substitute pkgvmacrodir.
	(dist_pkgvdata_DATA): Use nobase_ prefix so that these files are
	installed to $(pkgvdatadir)/config.
	(pkgvmacro_DATA): Renamed to...
	(nobase_pkgvdata_DATA): ...this, so that files are installed to
	$(pkgvdatadir)/m4.
	(install-data-hook): Adjust.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Remove -I processing.
	(func_filename_path_search): No longer required without -I.
	Adjust all callers.
	(pkgvltdldirs, pkgvmacrodirs): Deleted.
	(pkgvdatadir): Allow overriding from the environment so that we
	can write tests for uninstalled libtoolize.
	(func_serial_update, func_ltmain_update, func_config_update):
	Rename srcdirs parameter to srcdir, and don't call the path_search
	function anymore.  Adjust all callers.
	(--install): Don't blindly copy all config files.

2005-04-01  Mike Stump  <mrs@apple.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_CMD_MAX_LEN) [netbsd, freebsd, openbsd
	darwin, dragonfly]: Use 3/4 of argmax, instead of 1/4.

	* doc/libtool.texi: Minor formatting cleanups.

2005-03-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Propogate --debug flag to sub-libtoolizes.

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Fix a typo, s/pkgvltdldirs/pkgvdatadirs/.
	When using -I to test an uninstalled libtoolize, we need to add
	the config subdirectory to the search path so that ltmain.sh can
	be found in the source tree.

	* libtoolize.m4sh (func_copy_some_files): IFS needs to be set to
	path delimiter for all inner loop iterations.
	Once a matching file has been copied, no need to keep searching
	the path for another -- move on to the next file!

	* libtoolize.m4sh: For verbose mode, explain why macro files are
	not installed without an AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR declaration.

2005-03-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	As a prerequisite for being able to test an uninstalled libtoolize
	for copying files correctly from the source tree, we must know
	exactly which files should be copied by the --ltdl option to avoid
	accidentally picking up compilation objects and other noise when
	$builddir == $srcdir:

	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am (ltdldatadir, ltdldatafiles)
	(install-data-local): Removed...
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (ltdldatafiles): ...and consolidated here.
	(show-ltdldatafiles): New rule...
	* Makefile.am (ltdldatafiles, libtoolize): ...used to substitute
	exactly which files are installed by libtoolize --ltdl.
	(edit): Move pkgvmacro_DATA substitution expression...
	(libtoolize): ...to here.
	* libtoolize.m4sh: Use func_copy_some_files() instead of
	func_copy_all_from_path() to copy the --ltdl option installed
	files.
	(pkgvltdldirs): New path variable to search for	files installed by
	--ltdl option.
	(func_massage_pkgvltdl_files): New function to calculate the list
	of ltdl installation files.

	* m4/libtool.m4: The compiler can be a program name with args, so

	Also, drop unnecessary quotes in `case' argument.

2005-03-16  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* Makefile.am: tests/defs.in depends on config/general.m4sh.

	* config/general.m4sh: unconditionally set IFS, and set it

	* m4/libtool.m4: remove IFS setting and as_* namespace
	infringement.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Reset IFS to fix failure with ash.

	* configure.ac, libltdl/configure.ac: s/##/dnl/ for comments

	will work when a project has a single Makefile and performs
	builds in subdirectories. ${objdir} expects the source in
	the current directory, breaking single-Makefile builds.

	(install-data-local): Ditto.

2005-02-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	In branch-2-0 (and in time, others) ltversion.m4 has a dot
	delimited serial number that didn't used to be processed
	correctly by libtoolize.  This changeset fixes that, and
	leverages those changes to check versions of ltmain.sh and
	config.sub, config.guess before overwriting when --force is
	not given:

	* libtoolize.m4sh: Don't overwrite pkgaux files with --force
	unless --install is given too.
	(func_serial): Fix underquoting in regexp.
	(func_serial_max): New function to compare serial numbers.
	(func_serial_update_check): New function factored out of
	func_serial_update().
	(func_serial_update): Bail if SRCFILE is missing.
	Don't display both 'already up to date' and 'use --force to
	update' messages for the same file.
	Use func_serial_max to cope with `.' delimited serial numbers.
	(func_ltmain_update): Use func_serial_update_check and
	func_serial_max to do version checking with $package_revision.
	(func_config_update): Ditto with $timestamp.

2005-02-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (install-data-local):  cd to $(srcdir)
	before tarring up the files for installation to
	$(DESTDIR)$(ltdldatadir).  Don't remove the destination directory,
	since that interacts badly with the multi-Makefile installation.
	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am (install-data-local): Ditto.

2005-02-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	I assume that it is okay to have undefined symbols in convenience
	libraries that will be used as modules -- the pic objects are
	built normally, and are not expected to resolve all their symbols
	until they are linked into a library; convenience libraries are
	then rolled using 'ar' and 'ranlib' (or equivalent) which also do
	not check whether symbols are resolved.  We now build each of the
	loaders as a convenience library module under these assumptions,
	and link libltdl.la with selected modules, at which time all of
	the symbols *are* resolved:

	* TODO: Remove item addressed by this changeset.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): Remove libdlloader.la.
	(libdlloader_la_SOURCES): Declaration removed.  Changed all
	clients.  Source files..
	(libltdl_la_SOURCES): ...added back in here.
	(libdlloader_LDFLAGS, libdlloader_la_LIBADD): Removed.

2005-02-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Preserving the installed timestamps for libltdl sources from
	`libtoolize --ltdl --copy' is pointless if they are not preserved
	from the libtool source tree at install time:

	* libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am
	(nobase_ltdldata_DATA): Renamed to...
	(ltdldatafiles): ...this.
	(install-data-local): New rule to install libltdl tree with tar to

2005-02-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Using `libtoolize --copy --ltdl' was not preserving timestamps, so
	parts of the autoconf bootstrap would be rerun spuriously after
	the files had been copied into the source tree:

	* libtoolize.m4sh (TAR): New default tar command.
	(func_copy_cb): Move the core copying internals to here, using
	$TAR to transfer files if possible when --copy was specified.
	(func_copy): Adjust to call func_copy_cb.

	...and make use of new names.

2004-12-30  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* config/getopt.m4sh (func_version, func_usage, func_help):
	Use `$SED -n' instead of `$SED RANGE {..}; d' as AIX sed cannot
	handle the latter.
	(func_help): start autoconf and automake in subshells to avoid
	error messages from ash or Bourne shell if not available.

2004-12-28  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libtoolize.m4sh, config/ltmain.m4sh (most functions): New
	variable $opt_debug is either `:' or `set -x' depending on
	--debug.  Execute at most function entries to cater for ksh which
	resets `-x'.
	* tests/defs.m4sh: Ditto for VERBOSE=debug.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [cygwin, mingw, pw32]:
	_LT_TAGVAR missing for `fix_srcfile_path'.

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_extract_archives)
	(func_extract_an_archive): On darwin, uniq can not take the flags
	-cd together, thanks to Ralf for the fix, also ar does not accept
	N, so we use the fact that ar x libfoo.a foo.o will always extract
	the first foo.o in the archive and we then delete foo.o from the
	archive, which will also delete only the first foo.o, then rinse
	and repeat. Also add markers for the testuite.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Add a marker so that we can use a
	sed expression to find the shell functions in libtool.

	${wl}text' to archive_cmds and archive_expsyms_cmds.  I.e., do not
	allow nopic in shared libraries.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [solaris]: Change
	no_undefined_flag back to ' -z defs'.  Problems with linking
	against libgcc.a will have to be resolved differently.

	* tests/demo-nopic.test [solaris, sunos]: Skip test.

2004-12-18  Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* config/ltmain.m4sh: Preserve -model [arg] option, used
	with the Tru64 UNIX C++ compiler. This option selects the
	layout of C++ classes, name mangling, and exception handling.

2004-12-09  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_finish) [solaris]: Fix [] escaping
	bug.

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (all over the map): Make use of func_basename
	and func_dirname in most occasions.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_XSI_SHELL, _LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): New
	macros to detect at `configure' time whether the shell supports
	some XSI extensions and to copy appropriate versions of new shell
	functions into `libtool' through `config.status'.  Copied
	functions are Bourne and XSI variants of func_basename,
	func_dirname (a variant of `dirname' suitable for libtool).
	(_LT_SETUP): Require _LT_CHECK_XSI_SHELL.
	(_LT_CONFIG):  Use _LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS to insert into `libtool'
	at marker.

	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool/2004-11/msg00130.html.

2004-12-02  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* config/ltmain.m4sh: Remove code which is no longer needed
	now that temp_rpath only contains fully-qualified elements.

2004-11-30  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* config/general.m4sh: basename sed-subst is anchored and thus
	does not need the `g' flag.
	(func_quote_for_eval): Return both the possibly double-quoted
	backslashified as well as only the backslashified argument.
	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Use both return values,
	to save another sed_quote_subst application per cmdline arg.

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_lalib_p): Update function
	description.
	(func_lalib_unsafe_p): New function with same functionality but
	written without forks; this function is safe to use for cases
	where the argument either does not exist or is required to be a
	lalib for correct operation.
	* NEWS: Mention the fact that stdin is not to be used.
	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_execute, func_mode_install)
	(func_mode_link): Use func_lalib_unsafe_p where appropriate.
	(func_mode_execute): For the program wrapper, use
	func_ltwrapper_p instead of func_lalib_p.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS): Treat linux-dietlibc with
	the `diet' compiler wrapper (as opposed to the `diet-dyn' wrapper)
	as a static-only platform.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (trim): Use memcpy instead of strncpy here, to
	avoid problems with non-conforming strncpy.  This is safe here.

	have a dlloader to preload.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinit): Only preload if HAVE_LIBDLLOADER, only
	declare preloaded_symbols then.  Fixes libltdl on static platforms.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-11-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add a search path option to libtoolize so that we can run it from
	the testsuite without pulling in the last installed macros and
	ltdl sources:

	* libtoolize.m4sh:  Add a -I option to change libtoolize's search
	path for macro files, and libltdl master sources.
	(pkgvdatadir, pkgvmacrodir): Renamed...

	search path for a directory to copy.
	(func_serial_update, func_ltmain_update, func_config_update): New

	other functions.  Adjust all callers.
	(func_copy_cb): func_copy adapter function to call func_copy
	correctly from func_copy_some_files.
	(func_filename_path_search): Return the full path to the first
	occurence of a named file found in a list of directories.

2004-11-28  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): $dlsymsobj is really
	$symfileobj, bug exposed only in the static preloading case
	(symfileobj is created, but not linked into output).

	The ltdl.h header is the published interface to libltdl, and
	is thus not installed to $prefix/include/libltdl.  It has always
	been used with `#include <ltdl.h>', so move just that one file
	back to where it was before:

	* libltdl/libltdl/ltdl.h: Moved from here...
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: ...to here.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: Adjust.

	in the new location.
	* libltdl/libltdl/lt__alloc.h, libltdl/libltdl/lt__dirent.h,

	Sometimes, a wrapper script is generated for an executable that,
	itself, does not link against an uninstalled library.  It appears
	that this can happen if you are building a project where:

	  (1) there is a library
	  (2) there is an executable that does not, itself, link against
	      that library

	In this case, notinst_deplibs is empty, and when the wrapper
	script is loaded by libtool during ./libtool mode=install, there
	is a check for "is notinst_deplibs empty".  In this case, it is,
	so libtool reports an error.

	I don't think it is wrong to have a wrapper script for an exe that
	*technically* doesn't need it.  But instead of checking for
	notinst_deplib nonempty as a proxy for "did wrapper script get
	sourced into my environment properly" a different var should be
	used.

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_install): set new variable
	`generated_by_libtool_version' in wrapper script when using
	libtool_install_magic.  When verifying that wrapper script was
	properly sourced, check that `generated_by_libtool_version' is
	non-empty, instead of using notinst_deplibs.

	command for subsequent display.
	* config/ltmain.m4sh: Factor away use of $sed_quote_subst now that
	it has been subsumed into func_quote_for_eval.
	(func_mode_link): Instead of `2004-10-14 Peter O'Gorman' below,

	Add some new tests for Libtool's support of Automake
	subdir-objects builds.  This marks the beginning of a move to an
	Autotest driven test framework, which will eventually allow us to
	trim away many of the generated files in the current test demo
	subdirectories:

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Re-enable commented out
	Autotest macros.
	(AUTOTEST, M4SH): Use --language long hand.
	* bootstrap: Generate tests/testsuite, and by implication
	tests/package.m4.

	(check-local): Hook Autotest into `make check'.
	(installcheck-local): Run the testsuite on the installed tree.
	(clean-local): Tidy our file droppings.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Remove bitrotted code from Autotest
	experiments in Autoconf 2.52 era.  Updated the rest and moved into
	Makefile.am.
	* tests/testsuite.at: New container for Autotest test groups.
	* tests/am-subdir.at: New test group for compatibility with
	Automake's subdir-objects builds.  Currently holds two tests, one
	for a C project and another similar project in C++.
	* TODO: Add an entry to remind us that these new tests expose a
	bug in libtool.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	Fix some issues that mangled the reexecution path to a script,
	and thus prevented it from finding itself:

	* config/general.m4sh (progname): Don't actually change the name
	of the script if it begins with a `-', just prepend `./'.
	(progpath): Add a new clause that first searches the execution
	PATH, and then finally assumes this script is in the current
	working directory if $progname has no directory separators (e.g
	when invoked as `$SHELL progname').

2004-10-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	shell functions.

2004-10-08  Charles Wilson  <cygwin@cwilson.fastmail.fm>

	* config/ltmain.m4sh: Windows and Cygwin reserve the .lnk
	extension to represent shortcuts.  Use the extension ".lnkscript"
	rather than ".lnk" for the piecewise linking ld script in order to
	avoid the conflict.

	Without this change, the distributed libtool tarball has a
	dependency on autom4te.  There was some inconsistency in the

	Since defs can change (path to grep for example) when it is made
	for a different host, it can't be shipped.  That also means that
	defs will always be generated in the build tree, so each test case
	can have the srcdir discovery factored away into tests/defs.in:

	* configure.ac (M4SH): AC_SUBST m4sh expander.
	* config/general.m4sh, config/getopt.m4sh: New files with factored

	* config/ltmain.in, libtoolize.in: ...here.  m4_include the shared

	survive m4 run.
	(func_serial): No need to double up m4sh quotes after a `#'.
	(func_check_macros): Escape `dnl' to stop m4sh interpreting it as
	a macro.
	* tests/defs.in: New file expanded into tests/defs by autom4te.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_DECL_EGREP): Also require fgrep for the tests

	(libtoolize): Ditto.
	* bootstrap: Set M4SH for call to make.
	* HACKING: No need to sync to AS_SHELL_SANITIZE by hand any more.

	* m4/libtool.m4: _LT_DECL uppercase ECHO.
	* config/ltmain.in: Use it throughout.
	(func_mkdir_p): Now matches the other implementations in

	or not.

2004-09-22  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@suse.de>

	The dlpreopen pass over libraries reverses the elements in the
	$deplibs list.  This causes problems when the link pass tries to
	find libraries when they are located in non-standard places
	denoted by -L options.  Due to the reversed order these -L options
	occur after the libraries that need them, and they are not found:

	* config/ltmain.in: (Un)Reverse $deplibs list at the start of the
	link pass in lib mode.

2004-09-22  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@spam.protected>

	* ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms) [cygwin, mingw]: when creating
	a .exp file for an executable, also create a .def file, and add
	that file to the link command via SYMFILES.  This causes binutils
	to generate an .edata section, and allows self dlopening to work.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): better quoting for
	postinstall_cmds and postuninstall_cmds to allow spaces in install
	paths.

	* config/ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms): Addresses in
	_preloaded_symbols[] cannot go into .rdata section if symbols are
	DATA imported from DLL, on windows, because runtime relocations
	must happen.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS([TAGNAME])):	Build exports for
	symbols in .rdata sections.

2004-09-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	The checks in assign.test are trying to catch case of this ilk:
	`foo=bar break', but unfortunately they also choke on `foo=bar;
	break' and `foo=bar && break'.  Writing a sophisticated test to
	catch just the intended case seems like more trouble than it's
	worth, but leaving the test in causes the testsuite to fail on
	valid m4sh output:

	* tests/assign.test: Removed; chokes on perfectly valid shell
	syntax.
	* tests/Makefile.am (COMMON_TESTS): Remove assign.test.
	* tests/defs.in (scripts): Don't check the m4sh inputs, go back
	to checking the generated ltmain.sh script.

2004-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in (func_echo): Except for multi-line warnings and
	errors, always use func_echo.  $show is for command output, and
	$echo is for internal use in backtick expressions and similar.

2004-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Missed a couple of MKDIR_P references in ltmain.in in my last
	patch; fix them carefully.  Introduce an opt_dry_run to ltmain.in
	so that the implementations of func_mkdir_p can converge, and a
	func_mktempdir to do a better job of temporary directory creation:

	* libtoolize.in (func_mkdir_p): Don't fail if the directory wasn't
	created in dry run mode.
	* tests/defs (func_mkdir_p): Ditto.  We don't actually have a dry
	run mode for the tests, but the function is written carefully to
	be kept in synch and work correctly here too.
	* config/ltmain.in (func_mkdir_p): Ditto.  This copy of the
	function now only differs in its use of $echo over $ECHO.
	(func_extract_archive): Removed first redundant mkdir call.
	(func_mktempdir): New function that tries to avoid races when
	making temporary directories.
	(opt_dry_run): Set this if --dry-run is given at the CLI, or if
	tests/mdemo-dryrun.test has forced the value of $run.
	(func_mode_install): Call $MKDIR directly and error out if the
	directory cannot be created.
	(func_mode_link): Rather than copying func_mkdir_p into the
	wrapper script as a replacement for $MKDIR_P, we know that the
	script won't be called my `make -j', so write the current value of
	$MKDIR.

2004-09-17  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: remove an extra "]"

	* m4/libtool.m4 [darwin] (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Changes for 10.4.
	* config/libtool.in [darwin]: ditto.

2004-09-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	My most recent `2004-09-02 Gary V. Vaughan' patch for mkdir_p
	below is horrendously broken since it makes the installed libtool
	try to run the mkinstalldirs or install-sh helper scripts.  This
	patch fixes the `make -j' mkdir race condition internally:

	* libtoolize.in (func_mkdir_p): New slice and dice algorithm
	to build the directory tree one dir at a time, ignoring errors
	until the end incase they are transient due to a concurrent
	identical mkdir.
	* tests/defs (func_mkdir_p): Ditto.
	* config/ltmain.in (func_mkdir_p): Ditto, except that ltmain.in
	uses $echo rather than $ECHO, and uses $show and $run to interact
	correctly with the command line.
	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): 1.8 is sufficient again.
	* Makefile.am (edit): Don't substitute automake's $(mkdir_p).
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-09-15  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* libltdl/loaders/loadlibrary.c: Compilation fixes (originally
	from Gary V. Vaughan) to compile under MinGW.
	* config/mkstamp: Translate input data so that it is assured to
	use the Unix line terminations. This is necessary under Windows if
	the files are checked out with CR/NL line terminations. A
	side-effect of this change is that input must always be from
	stdin. Previously a filename argument was accepted as well.

2004-09-15  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* tests/Makefile.am: Use the same CPP, F77, CXX and CXXFLAGS
	for the test suite.

2004-09-15  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_ENABLE_LOCK):Replace AC_TRY_LINK with
	AC_LINK_IFELSE to get rid of `autoconf -Wobsolete' warning.
	* m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_LIB_DLLOAD): Ditto.

2004-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in (func_quote_for_eval): Set a return value to
	avoid forking at every call.  Changed all callers.
	(func_mode_link): Simplified, and removed the final non-portable
	nested escaped double quotes in back quotes usage in the process.

2004-09-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in (func_quote_for_eval): Factor out the ugly
	shell meta-character quoting.  Changed all callers.

2004-09-14  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Simplification:
	distinguish between data and code symbols on every system.

2004-09-14  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	Unfortunately, libtool has no way of telling if unrecognized
	compiler flags need an argument or not, and can disect options and
	pass parts through incorrectly.  This changeset reverts both
	2004-09-06 Albert Chin-A-Young (topmost) and 2004-09-05 Albert
	Chin-A-Young below, and recognises more options explicitly:

	* config/ltmain.in (func_mode_link): Pass through options needed
	to compile in 64-bit mode with gcc, and the SGI, Sun, HP and IBM
	compilers.

2004-09-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBALS_SYMBOLS): Fix a typo I made when
	applying 2004-09-11 Ralf Wildenhues.

2004-09-12  Brad  <brad@comstyle.com>

	* libtool.m4: Fixes for the OpenBSD support

2004-09-12  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	Our fortran tests were not very good. All the libraries created
	were convenience libs, so we did not test the creation of shared
	libraries on any platform. Also none of the libs used any actual
	fortran library calls, adding a call to write(*,*) in each lib
	causes the tests to fail on darwin (and presumably other platforms).
	These new tests would likely cause many more fortran test failures,
	so if there is an error during make it is reported as SKIP.

	* tests/f77demo-make.test: Don't fail hard, skip on failure.
	* tests/f77demo/foof2.f: New file.
	* tests/f77demo/foof3.f: New file.
	* tests/f77demo/fprogram.f: Call routine in new lib.
	* tests/f77demo/foof.f: Call routine in another new lib.
	* tests/f77demo/Makefile.am: Make a couple of new libraries, add
	$(FLIBS) to cprogram LDADD.

2004-09-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): The linker distinguishes
	data and code symbols on linux-gnu/ia64.  Fixes multiple testsuite
	failures.

2004-09-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/loaders/shl_load.c (get_vtable): Typo.

2004-09-06  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	Hopefully, passing unrecognised compiler arguments through
	unmolested will prove to be a good plan for the 2.0 release.  If
	it goes awry, we can get back to where we were by reverting this
	patch and the 2004-09-05 Albert Chin-A-Young patch, aka
	gary@gnu.org--2004/libtool--devo--1.0--patch-169,172:

	* config/ltmain.in (func_mode_link): Because we now pass through
	compiler arguments we doesn't recognize, the code to pass
	through GCC's -m* arguments is not needed.

2004-09-06  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* Makefile.am (clean-ltmain-sh): Using '==' to test for equality
	in a shell script is not portable. Use '=' instead.

2004-09-05  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@suse.de>

	* m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Remove excess quoting in argument of
	AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS.

2004-09-05  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* config/ltmain.in (func_mode_link): Pass otherwise unrecognised +
	and - style switches to the compiler.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* Makefile.am (libtool): Force libtool to be regenerated if
	stamp-vcl has changed.

2004-09-05  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* bootstrap: Remember that the ltmain.sh generated by bootstrap

2004-09-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>,

	Builds of packages that use libtool and make -j produce "directory
	already exists warnings" for .lib directory.  Build on automake
	wisdom to support make -j builds where a suitable mkdir is
	available:

	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require 1.9, which goes to some
	trouble to find a $(mkdir_p) that doesn't interfere with make -j.
	* Makefile.am (edit): Substitute for @mkdir_p@.
	* config/ltmain.in (MKDIR_P): Take @mkdir_p@ value.
	(mkdir): Removed.
	(func_mkdir_p): New function to use $MKDIR_P.  Factor out all
	previous mkdir calls to use this function.
	(RM, MV): Declared as in libtoolize.in.  Changed all callers.
	* libtoolize.in (MKDIR_P): Take @mkdir_p@ value from automake.
	(func_mkdir_p): Use it, similarly to new config/ltmain.in.
	* tests/defs: Synchronize boiler plate code with ltmain.in.
	Adjust all callers.
	Add missing copyright preamble.

	Don't show the shell commands.

	* AUTHORS: Fix my email address.

2004-09-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>,
	    Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/slist.c, libltdl/slist.h: Merge in changes from latest
	upstream.  Mostly comments, formal item boxing, a sort function,
	and const madness reduction.
	(slist_new): Removed.
	(slist_box, slist_unbox, slist_sort): New.
	(SListCompare, SListCallback): Swapped!
	(slist_remove, slist_find): Change order of parameters for
	orthogonality with slist_foreach.  Changed all callers.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.c (loader_cmp): Renamed to...
	(loader_callback): ...this.  Return boxed item.
	(lt_dlloader_remove): Adjust to new loader_callback semantics;
	unbox each removed item before returning.
	Remove unused variable.
	Remove const from name parameter, since the slist API cannot
	guarantee userdata const-ancy for its callback functions.
	(lt_dlloader_find): Adjust to new loader_callback semantics; need
	to return the contents of the boxed item.
	Remove const from name parameter, since the slist API cannot
	guarantee userdata const-ancy for its callback functions.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_dlloader_find, lt_dlloader_remove):
	Adjust to new constless footprint.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (ltdl_exit): The global `loaders' list is changed
        by `lt_dlloader_remove' while cleaning up, so the address in local
	variable `loader' is invalidated.  Since some loaders may be
	resident modules that cannot be unloaded (though we have none
	yet), we must save each `next' address before calling
	`lt_dlloader_remove'.

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsymbol): Removed.
	(lt_dlsymlist): Remove originator field.
	(LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): Adjust.
	* libltdl/loaders/preopen.c (vm_open, lt_dlpreload_open): Adjust
	for new types.
	(vm_sym): Skip the new originator symbol when scanning symbol
	names.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Adjust preloaded symbols
	test file to match.
	* NEWS: Updated.
	Reported by Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>

2004-09-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Libtool currently assumes that certain characteristics, such as
	enable_shared, apply to the host architecture rather than per-
	language.  Running the tests over a broken compiler can corrupt
	these values, when there is no C++ compiler for example, so we
	skip most of the tests in those cases.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): If caught_CXX_compiler was
	set from configure.ac, then don't run all the compiler tests.
	(_LT_LANG_F77_CONFIG): Similarly for caught_F77_compiler.

2004-08-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (clean-ltmain-sh): Remove stale config/ltmain.sh
	from the build tree that were left behind by previous versions of
	libtool.
	($top_srcdir)/stamp-vcl: Since this rule is already called on
	every invocation of make, hook clean-ltmain-sh in here too.
	Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

2004-08-31  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* bootstrap: Update warning message to reflect having split
	libtool.m4 into several files.
	Also, add config/ltmain.sh to list of stale files from previous
	versions to be removed before bootstrap.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Replace strdup with lt__strdup.

2004-08-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in: Double quote even $# for the sake of sh.test.
	(exec_cmd): Be careful about "`\"foo\"`" quoting, even in comments
	to avoid triggering the tests in sh.test.

	* configure.ac:  Because of the way the autoconf C++ testing
	works, we need to call the C test first to work in an environment
	that has no C++ compiler.

	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.c (lt_dlloader_remove): Since the return
	value of this function is often passed to free, don't declare it
	`const'. Responsibility for this memory is given back to the
	caller on return.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_dlloader_remove): Ditto.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlexit): Adjust.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-08-30  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@suse.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlexit): Remove lvalue cast.

	* libltdl/slist.h (SListCallback): Fix missing type.

	* config/ltmain.in: Accept --mode=relink.

2004-08-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS: Updated.
	* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.9c.

	GNU libtool 1.9b was released.

	* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.9b.
	* NEWS: Updated.
	* INSTALL, config/config.guess, config/config.sub,
	config/texinfo.tex: Updated from canonical source.
	* Makefile.maint, HACKING: Update instructions for releasing in a
	VPATH build.

	* Makefile.am (dist-hook): Only run if README-alpha exists.
	* README.alpha: Renamed from README-alpha to stop automake from
	automatically adding it to DIST_COMMON.

	* NEWS: Merge changes from branch-1-5.

	* Makefile.am (dist-hook): Always distribute just a README file,
	but take its contents from README-alpha for alpha releases.

	* TODO: Reformat.  Removed some items that have been implemented.

2004-08-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Add a new `-weak' flag to tell libtool when not to propogate
	dependency libraries from dlpreopened modules to libraries:

	* config/ltmain.in: Support new -weak link mode option.  Adjust
	help message.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdlc_la_LDFLAGS): Use it.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Linking with dlopened modules): Document it.
	(Link mode): Mention -weak.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-08-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in (opt_help): Defer showing help messages until
	after a possible following --mode argument has been parsed, so we
	can handle `libtool --help --mode=foo'.

2004-08-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	We have had shell functions in ltmain.in for a few years without
	complaint now, and recently a few more have crept in.  Make a
	start at refactoring the code with shell functions, and
	standardising on option parsing style:

	* config/ltmain.in (func_echo, func_verbose, func_error)
	(func_fatal_error, func_fatal_help, func_missing_arg)
	(func_version, func_usage, func_help): Boiler plate shell
	functions mostly copied from libtoolize.in.  Changed *lots* of
	shell snippets to call these functions as appropriate, rather than
	inlining the same code over and over.
	(func_config, func_features, func_enable_tag, func_mode_help):
	Factored out from the shared option parsing loop.  Write a new
	shared option parser based on the one in libtoolize.in.
	(func_check_version_match): Factored out from global scope.
	(func_mode_compile, func_mode_execute, func_mode_finish)
	(func_mode_install, func_mode_link, func_mode_uninstall): Break
	each of the top level mode handlers out into a function.  Adjust
	main loop.
	(modename, prevopt, prev, optarg, show_help): Removed in the
	course of cleaning up the shared option parser.
	(opt_duplicate_deps): Use `:' and `false' instead of `yes' and `',
	so we can run it directly, rather than calling test.

2004-08-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	To help users submit better bug reports, improve the general
	instructions, and provide additional useful info alongside the bug
	reporting address in --help output:

	* Makefile.am (edit): Substitute $host_triplet.
	* libtoolize.in: Output useful debug info with --help.
	* config/ltmain.in: Ditto.
	* README: Rewritten.  Added copyright info.
	* README-alpha: Rewritten.  Added copyright info.
	* HACKING: New file, partly taken from old README-alpha.

2004-08-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Two things to stop `make distcheck' from trying to rebuild
	distributed files (m4/ltversion.m4 and config/ltmain.in) in the
	readonly source tree:

	* Makefile.am (stamp-vcl): Keep only one copy of stamp-vcl; in
	$(top_srcdir), so that an up-to-date version is rolled into the
	dist tarball even from a VPATH build.
	($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Don't depend on Makefile,
	otherwise ltmain.sh needs to be rebuilt after every config.status
	run, and then configure needs to be rebuilt, and it all goes
	horribly wrong :-/  Unfortunately, we can't depend on Makefile.am
	either, because that is a circular dependency.  The downside of
	this change is that it is now possible to edit Makefile.am to
	change the way ltmain.sh is generated, and the dependency
	information can't tell that ltmain.sh needs regenerating.

2004-08-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Cheap tricks): Escape the `@' for texinfo.

2004-08-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Cheap tricks): Fix the instructions for making
	a ltmain.in wrapping libtool in light of recent changes to the
	version checking code.

2004-08-26  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* config/ltmain.in [darwin]: Use the -dylib_file flag and avoid
	linking to so many libraries on darwin.

	* m4/libtool.m4 [darwin]: Don't use a libname triplet, a couplet
	is perfectly fine.

	* m4/ltdl.m4: Don't use the dyld loader on darwin 8 or later.

2004-08-25  Paolo Bonzini  <bonzini@gnu.org>

	* config/ltmain.in (piecewise linking): Use a GNU ld script if
	possible.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS): Add per-tag variable
	with_gnu_ld.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Don't set unused variable with_gnu_ldcxx.

2004-08-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	The Grand Renaming.  In preparation for libtool-2.0, move all of
	the many and varied m4 symbols accumulated by libtool over the

	macros even without AC in the macro name:

	* bootstrap: Remove libltdl/config.h from previous releases.
	* m4/libtool.m4, m4/ltdl.m4, doc/libtool.texi: Basically, run a

2004-08-12  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 [GNU/linux] (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): Cleanup,
	thanks to Daniel Reed.

2004-08-11  Daniel Reed  <djr@redhat.com>

	* tests/demo-nopic.test: Do not run on x86_64 or s390*

2004-08-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlforeachfile): LT_SYS_LIBSEARCH_PATH is not
	an environment variable, it is an actual path.

	* bootstrap: Remove `-f Makefile.am' now that we have an actual
	Makefile to build ltmain.sh.
	Reported by Noah Mish <noah@cs.caltech.edu>

2004-08-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* bootstrap: Run the bootstrap rules from a file named Makefile,
	copied from Makefile.am for fresh checkouts.

2004-08-05  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): Require ltmain.sh using
	using Autoconf's new AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.

2004-08-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Depends on
	Makefile.
	(timestamp): Factor out timestamp setting and edit it based on the
	version number, so that it is empty for release versions.
	($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Use it.
	(libtoolize): Ditto.

	* Makefile.am (libtool): Depends on ltmain.sh.
	(libtoolize): Set and substitute TIMESTAMP.

	* Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Actually run
	$(MKSTAMP) before changing directories, or it won't be found.
	Forgot to save before my last commit :-(

	* Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/m4/ltversion.m4): Since we already did
	`cd $(top_srcdir)' for this rule, we can't mv ltversion.tmp to the
	relative $(top_srcdir) again!  Also, run $(MKSTAMP) before changing
	directories, or it won't be found.
	($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Ditto.
	(EXTRA_DIST): We should distribute ltversion.m4 too.

2004-08-04  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Since CONFIG_SHELL may
	not actually be set, we should use SHELL here, also make darn sure
	that SHELL is set to something. Bug from Willem Jan Palenstijn
	<wpalenst@math.leidenuniv.nl>.

2004-08-03  Jacob Meuser  <jakemsr@jakemsr.com>

	* ltmain.in: Allow some static libraries to be used in generating a
	shared library on NetBSD and OpenBSD. match-pattern_regex decides
	which are good.

2004-08-02  Geoffrey Keating  <geoffk@apple.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 [darwin]: Don't use -all_load.

2004-08-01  Maciej W. Rozycki  <macro@linux-mips.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): Set SED when running from cache as
	well.

2004-07-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Although libtool is optimised to not need to subconfigure libltdl,
	the installed libltdl sources for libtoolize need to put
	libltdl/configure.ac in the parent package so that *it* can
	subconfigure libltdl.  That way we don't put any constraints on
	the build system used by the parent package because the
	libtoolized libltdl subtree is a self-contained sub-project:

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add configure.ac.
	(nobase_ltdldata_DATA): Change back to libltdl's own
	configure.ac.

2004-07-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	My thanks to Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org> for the insight
	required to write this changeset -- especially that ltmain.sh is
	the same on any machine for a given release, which I hadn't
	noticed for some bizarre reason: It turns out that generating
	distributed files from configure causes no end of hassle, as
	evidenced by the many patches I've generated over the last few
	days to try and get the dist and distcheck make rules to work.
	Instead of all that hair, we now simply generate our distributed
	files (now including ltmain.sh) with make rules -- and since
	automake creates make variables for all AC_SUBSTs, that is really
	easy.  The code looks a lot more like automake and autoconf
	Makefile.ams now, and doesn't have all the rough edges the earlier
	hacky solution suffered from.  We still generate libtool from
	config.status, but that is not a distributed file, and doesn't
	break the golden rule.  Besides, there is way more going on there
	than a bunch of substitutions:

	* Makefile.am (edit): New common sed substitutions for files now
	generated by make instead of config.status.
	(CLEANFILES): Clean new tmp files.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Add ltmain.sh.
	(vcl-tmp): Reinstated.
	(m4/ltversion.m4, config/ltmain.sh): New rules.  Generate from
	here instead of config.status.
	(libtoolize): Ditto.
	(libtool): Call config.status to regenerate if necessary.
	(dist-hook): Removed.
	* config/ltmain.in: Moved here from top_srcdir.
	* README-alpha: Update instructions to check AS_SHELL_SANITIZE is
	up to date.
	* bootstrap: Rewritten.  Generate m4/ltversion.m4 and
	config/ltmain.sh because configure depends on them.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): Use libtoolize.in now that
	ltmain.in has moved.
	(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Don't generate distributed files,
	config/ltmain.sh and libtoolize from config.status.  We have make
	rules to do that now.

2004-07-30  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in: readd the comments that I erased.

	* ltmain.in [darwin]: We already had a module var, there can be
	only one.

	* m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in: autoconf now says the best thing to do
	with CDPATH is to (unset CDPATH) >/dev/null 2>&1 && unset CDPATH,
	so do it.

2004-07-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Ugh. More hair to
	help `make distcheck'; not only do we have to make a copy of
	ltmain.sh available in the source tree, but we have to be really
	careful about permission bit twiddling when we copy it across into
	the possible read-only $(top_srcdir)/config directory!

	* tests/tagtrace.test: Skip this test when running a VPATH build
	against a read-only source tree (as in distcheck for example),
	since autoconf wants to write temporary files in $top_srcdir
	otherwise.

	* Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): Automake assumes,
	quite rightly for every project except libtool, that there will be
	an ltmain.sh in the source tree.
	(EXTRA_DIST): As do the dist rules it generates.
	(dist-hook): Even though we definitely don't want to distribute
	our local ltmain.sh.

	* config/config.guess, config/config.sub: Don't check these in,
	they cause spurious conflicts on cvs commit and update, and are
	added by bootstrap in any case.

	* configure.ac (AC_INIT): Revert an accidental commit from my
	testing of package_revision.

2004-07-29  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Tags): Document CC.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SETUP): Register CC as supported tag so that
	Automake uses it.

2004-07-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Fix a long-standing bug where macro_version was always empty in
	the generated m4/ltversion.m4.  Except for CVS revisions:

	* ltmain.in (package_revision): Don't try to deduce it from
	TIMESTAMP, since that is empty for release versions; simply
	substitute it...
	* configure.ac (package_revision): ...from here, having
	precalculated it before resetting TIMESTAMP for release versions.
	* bootstrap: Force regeneration of m4/ltversion.m4, but retain
	timestamps if there is no change to the content.

2004-07-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	To take full advantage of this, libtool must be bootstrapped with
	CVS autoconf, otherwise pdksh chokes on some nested escaped quotes
	from libtool.m4.  Using CVS autoconf protects configure from
	non-bourne compatible shells in the same way this changeset
	protects libtool and libtoolize:

	* libtoolize.in: Include latest CVS autoconf AS_SHELL_SANITIZE
	expansion to make various shells fully bourne compatible.
	* ltmain.in: Ditto.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PATH_TOOL_PREFIX): Remove spurious quotes, the
	RHS of = assignment is not IFS split.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Ditto.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_POSTDEP_PREDEP): Ditto.

2004-07-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	This change fixes another VPATH build bug, where the vcl.tmp
	target forced a rebuild of stamp-vcl in the build tree (and
	hence regeneration of m4/ltversion.m4, thus an automake driven
	rebootstrap that doesn't know about $fakes) requiring a fresh
	./bootstrap after every cvs/tla update:

	* Makefile.am (vcl.tmp): Removed.
	(stamp-vcl): Adopt former vcl.tmp target rules.

2004-07-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Make sure that dependency libraries of -dlpreopened
	libraries are propogated properly.

2004-07-23  Joe Orton  <joe@manyfish.co.uk>

	* libtool.m4: Treat bsdi5* like bsdi4*.

2004-07-22  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in [darwin](func_extract_archives): $SED not sed.

	* ltmain.in [darwin](func_extract_archives): Clean up last commit
	a little, some suggestions are from Albert Chin, those that are
	broken are mine.

	* libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am: Look for
	included files in the right places.

2004-07-18  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in [darwin](func_extract_archives): Because fat archives
	on darwin can not be extracted using ar, we need to use lipo to
	extract the thin archives and then use lipo again to generate the
	individual fat objects. This should allow people to run configure
	with CC set to "cc -arch ppc -arch ppc64" or "cc -arch ppc -arch
	i386" or whatever to match the toolchain they have available.

2004-07-18  Greg Eisenhauer  <eisen@cc.gatech.edu>

	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am: Use AM_MAKEFLAGS not MAKEFLAGS.

2004-07-18  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am: Ensure that lt__dirent.h is part of the dist,
	also make failed looking for configure.ac, look for
	$(top_srcdir)/configure.ac instead.

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/lt__private.h (lt_dlhandle_struct): Renamed to
	lt__handle to better reflect the naming scheme.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlhandle): Be truly opaque with a void *.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.c (lt_dlloader_remove): Party to
	lt__private.h, so use internal lt__handle instead of opaque
	lt_dlhandle.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_DLGET_FLAG, LT_DLSET_FLAG): Add a cast to
	internal lt__handle type.
	(try_dlopen, tryall_dlopen, load_deplibs, unload_deplibs): Ditto.
	(lt_dlexit, lt_dlclose, lt_dlsym): Use lt__handle to iterate
	throught the handle list.
	(try_dlopen): Use lt__zalloc instead of MALLOC and memset.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlcaller_id): Be truly opaque with a void *.
	(lt_dlhandle_interface): New callback type for filtering handles
	according to the interface they present.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlcaller_register): Take an id and an

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Split lt_dlloader management into a separate file, and factor
	`loaders' list management into a new SList ADT.  In the process,
	the API for writing loaders is a little cleaner, so all the
	existing loaders were tweaked to take advantage of that:

	* libltdl/slist.h, libltdl/slist.c: New files implementing a
	generic singly linked list container ADT.  The ADT is purely
	internal, and none of its API's are visible from an installed
	libltdl.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_dlloader): Removed next field again
	:-) Renamed to lt_dlvtable for API.  Changed all callers.
	(lt_dlloader_get): New function to turn an lt_dlloader into its
	associated lt_dlvtable.
	(lt_dlloader_add): Removed unused data parameter.  The caller
	data belongs to (and is set by) the loader itself, not the
	loader's client.  Changed all callers.
	(lt_dlloader_name, lt_dlloader_data): Removed.  Use
	lt_dlloader_get instead!
	* libltdl/lt__private.h: Include slist.h.
	(lt__alloc_die_callback): Add missing LT_SCOPE to declaration.
	(lt_dlhandle_struct): Use lt_dlvtable instead of opaque
	lt_dlloader.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlexit): Rewritten for the new loader API.
	(loaders, lt_dlloader_add, lt_dlloader_remove, lt_dlloader_next,
	lt_dlloader_find): Moved from here...
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.c ((loaders, lt_dlloader_add,
	lt_dlloader_remove, lt_dlloader_next, lt_dlloader_find): ...to
	here.  And rewritten in terms of new SList interface.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlexit, tryall_dlopen): Rewritten in terms of
	new lt_dlloader interface.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libdlloader_la_SOURCES): Add slist.h and
	slist.c.  Move lt_dlloader.h from here...
	(pkginclude_HEADERS): ...to here.
	(libltdl_la_SOURCES): Add lt_dlloader.c and lt_dlloader.h.

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Collapse two almost identical structures into one:

	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_dlloader): Add next field.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_user_dlloader): Remove entirely.  Change all
	callers to use lt_dlloader instead.  Add a compatibility macro.
	(lt_dlloader_add): Remove copy and allocate stage, just hook
	directly into the loaders list.

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	A cleaner way to access the private fields of an lt_dlhandle
	than my move of the module field into lt_dlinfo:

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_caller_data, lt_dlhandle_struct): Move from
	here...
	* libltdl/lt__private.h (lt_caller_data, lt_dlhandle_struct):
	...to here.  And put the module field back here...
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlinfo): ...instead of here.
	* libltdl/loaders/loadlibrary.c (vm_open): Adjust.

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/lt__private.h (streq, strneq): New macros to make strcmp
	calls as used for simple comparison easier to read.
	* libltdl/loaders/dyld.c, libltdl/loaders/preopen.c,
	libltdl/ltdl.c: Use them!

2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	This pervasive changeset makes two intertwined deep changes to the
	operation of libtool (neither would work alone).  First, there is
	a new feature that allows libraries to preopen modules.  This
	entails a backwards incompatible change to the libltdl API for
	separating out the preloaded symbol lists by owner.  Second, in
	the tradition of "eating our own dogfood", libltdl now preloads
	its own dlloaders.  The internal API for dlloaders has also had to
	change in a backwards incompatible way in support of the new
	library preloading feature.  If you don't use preloaded libraries,
	you needn't change your project sources, though you will need to
	recompile against the new libltdl.  The API changes are mostly
	confined to dlloaders, so you probably needn't worry about those
	(unless you have written a custom loader that you want libltdl to
	use):

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add libltdl/loaders/Makefile.
	* libltdl/configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add loaders/Makefile.
	* libltdl/loaders: New directory for module loaders, to simplify
	Makefile rules, and to give the loaders themselves names that are
	unique in the first few characters.
	* libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): Copy recursively to pick up
	the loaders directory contents.
	* libltdl/loaders/Makefile.am: New file.  Move module building
	rules to here...
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: ...from here.
	(VERSION_INFO): Bumped version info to signify interface changes.
	(libltdl_la_CPPFLAGS, libltdlc_la_CPPFLAGS): Set LTDLOPEN
	appropriately for each library.
	* libltdl/loader-dld_link.c, libltdl/loader-dlopen.c,
	libltdl/loader-dyld.c, libltdl/loader-load_add_on.c,
	libltdl/loader-loadlibrary.c libltdl/loader-preopen.c,
	libltdl/loader-shl_load.c: Moved from here...
	* libltdl/loaders/dld_link.c, libltdl/loaders/dlopen.c,
	libltdl/loaders/dyld.c, libltdl/loaders/load_add_on.c,
	libltdl/loaders/loadlibrary.c libltdl/loaders/preopen.c,
	libltdl/loaders/shl_load.c: ...to here.
	(get_vtable): New entry function for each.
	* libltdl/loaders/preopen.c (lt_dlsymlists_t): Replaced by...
	(symlist_chain): ...a new structure which maps lists of preloaded
	symbols from the object that loads them.
	(lt_dlpreload_open): New function to automatically open all
	preloaded modules belonging to a named object (ORIGINATOR).
	* libltdl/lt__alloc.c (lt__zalloc): New function to return a block
	of zeroed out new memory.
	* libltdl/lt__alloc.h (lt__zalloc): Prototype it.
	* libltdl/lt__private.h (lt__alloc_die_callback): Add missing
	prototype.
	(lt__error_strings): Make this opaque to callers.
	* libltdl/lt_error.c (lt__error_strings): Move the implementation
	to here.
	* libltdl/lt_dlloader.h (lt_user_dlloader): Add extra fields to
	make originator focused preloading possible.  *BREAKS BACKWARDS
	COMPATIBILITY*
	(lt_dlloader_add): Take advantage of new fields to simplify
	paramater list.
	* libltdl/lt_system.h (LT_STR): New ANSI stringification macro.
	(LT_CONC): Fix it to work from within macros.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (loader_init, loader_init_callback): Simplify
	dlloader loading.
	(get_vtable, preloaded_symbols): Point these at the preopen.c
	symbols to bootstrap the loader chain.
	(lt_dlinit): Load the preopen dlloader manually, and then use it
	to load any other preloaded dlloaders.
	(lt_dlloader_add): Simplify parameter list. Populate new
	fields. Chain new loaders according to priority field.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsymlist): Add a new originator field.
	(lt_dlpreload_callback_func): Type of a callback for automatic

	* tests/pdemo/longer_file_name_dlmain.c (main): Ditto.
	* ltmain.in: Don't spew spurious warnings when dlopening and
	dlpreopening modules.
	(func_generate_dlsyms): Factored out from multiple copies in the
	rest of the code. Generate originator keyed symbol lists.
	(func_extract_archives): Also factored.  Extract the contents of
	convenience archives for linking with dependent libraries when
	--whole-archive is not available.
	[darwin]: Don't try to link $old_library unless it exists, and
	$lib is a bundle.
	* m4/ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_DLLIB): Check for all possible dynamic
	loading libraries/apis rather that stopping when an acceptable one
	is discovered.
	(LT_DLLOADERS): New variable for holding dlloaders that can be
	preloaded.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Document interface changes.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-07-12  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 [darwin]: Set whole_archive_flag_spec to '' for xlc,

	and dies.

2004-06-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libltdl uses LIBOBJS, which leak out into a parent project if both
	share the same configure.ac.  Libtool itself doesn't compile any
	code, so it is okay to do it during bootstrap, but other projects
	need to treat libltdl as a configurable subproject to keep their
	respective LIBOBJS separate:

	* libltdl/configure.ac: New file, based on configure.ac.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (AC_LOCAL_AMFLAGS): Use our own m4
	directory.
	(ltdldata_DATA): List *all* the files that libtoolize --ltdl will
	install.

2004-06-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Automake 1.9 won't have the AC_PROG_EGREP bug (aclocal used to
	pull an old installed libtool.m4 as well as the bootstrap
	m4/libtool.m4 if an AC_DEFUN was removed), and we have
	lt~obsolete.m4 to work around it in the mean time.  libtoolize
	can install macro files from $prefix/share/aclocal perfectly well
	without us needing to move to a whole other directory:

	* Makefile.am (pkgmacro_DATA): Renamed to aclocal_DATA, so m4
	files are installed to $prefix/share/aclocal again.
	(install-data-local): Don't remove just installed macros!
	* libtoolize.in (pkgmacrodir): Renamed to aclocaldir.
	(func_copy_some_files): New function factored out of...
	(func_copy_all_files): ...here.  Adjust to use func_copy_some_files.
	(re_pkgaux_files): Renamed to glob_pkgaux_files, since it is not

	tests/pdemo/Makefile.am, tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS):
	Add -I$(top_srcdir)/../.. so that libltdl include files can be
	written as #include <libltdl/lt_dlloader.h> and found correctly.

	Factor out the mutex handling and error handling into their own
	modules.  Mutex handling is not currently useful in combination
	with posix threads, and should be easier to replace if it is in a
	separate module.  Additionally, we can factor out the loaders in
	such a way as to depend on only the portability layer and these
	new mutex and error modules now:

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (pkginclude_HEADERS): Install lt_error.h and
	lt_mutex.h to $includedir/libltdl.
	(libltdl_la_SOURCES): Build lt_error and lt_mutex objects.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (LT_SCOPE): Moved from here...
	* libltdl/lt_system.h (LT_SCOPE): ...to here.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlerror_strings, LT_DLSTRERROR): Moved from
	here...
	* libltdl/lt__private.h (lt__error_strings, LT__STRERROR): ...to
	here as additional internal interfaces to lt_error.  Changed all
	callers.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_DLMUTEX_LOCK, LT_DLMUTEX_UNLOCK)
	(LT_DLMUTEX_SETERROR, LT_DLMUTEX_GETERROR, lt_dlmutex_lock_func)
	(lt_dlmutex_unlock_func, lt_dlmutex_geterror_func)
	(lt_dllast_error): Moved from here...
	(LT__MUTEX_LOCK, LT__MUTEX_UNLOCK, LT__MUTEX_SETERRORSTR)
	(LT__MUTEX_GETERROR, lt__mutex_lock_func, lt__mutex_unlock_func)
	(lt__mutex_geterror_func, lt__last_error): ...to here as
	additional internal interfaces to lt_mutex.  Changed all callers.
	(LT_MUTEX_SETERROR): Take an errorcode rather than a string.
	Changed all callers.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c, libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlmutex_register): Moved from
	here...
	* libltdl/lt_mutex.c, libltdl/lt_mutex.h (lt_dlmutex_register):
	...to here. New files.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c, libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dladderror, lt_dlseterror)
	(lt_dlerror_table):
	Moved from here...
	* libltdl/lt_error.c, libltdl/lt_error.h (lt_dladderror)
	(lt_dlseterror, lt_dlerror_table): ...to here. New files.

2004-04-13  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* Makefile.am (XDELTA_OPTIONS): Remove --pristine as that
	generates huge xdeltas.

2004-04-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (argz_append, argz_create_sep, argz_insert)
	(argz_next, argz_stringify): Move from here...
	* libltdl/argz.c: New file. ...to here.
	* libltdl/lt__glibc.h: New file. Rename global symbols into the
	lt__ namespace.
	* libltdl/lt__private.h: Include lt__glibc.h.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_SOURCES): Add new files.
	(AM_CPPFLAGS): Add -DLTDL.
	* libltdl/argz.h (argz_append, argz_create_sep, argz_insert)
	(argz_next, argz_stringify): New file. Declare argz functions
	here, including lt__glibc.h when LTDL is defined to rename global
	symbols for libltdl.
	* m4/ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_FUNC_ARGZ): Add argz to AC_LIBOBJ if any of
	our argz_* functions are missing from the system libraries.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Move standard headers and preprocessor guards
	from here...
	* libltdl/lt__private.h: ...to here.  New file to declare ltdl's

	opendir, readdir and closedir are missing.
	(AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Remove assert.h, ctype.h, errno.h, malloc.h,

	* libltdl/lt__dirent.c (opendir, readdir, closedir): New file.
	Windows dirent emulation functions moved to here...
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (opendir, readdir, closedir): ...from here.
	* libltdl/lt__dirent.h: New file.  Rename the global symbols from
	lt__dirent.c into the lt__ namespace so they don't clash with
	other libraries.

2004-04-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Factor out the bottom portability layer from ltdl.  Code in this
	layer has global symbols renamed by lt__pre89.h, and may not
	refer to any symbols except those provided by the system libraries
	or other code in the portability layer:

	* libltdl/lt__pre89.h: New file.  Rename all the symbols from
	LTLIBOBJS into the lt__ namespace so that they don't clash with
	other libraries.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (rpl_memcpy, rpl_memmove, rpl_strchr, rpl_strcmp)
	(rpl_strrchr): Moved from here...
	* libltdl/memcpy.c (memcpy): ...to here, and fixed void *

	* m4/ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL): Do careful config.h and LTLIBOBJ
	setting for missing pre89 functions.

2004-04-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (LT_PARAMS): Removed.  Changed all users to
	ANSI prototypes.
	(lt_ptr): Keep backwards compatibility stub.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c, libltdl/ltdl.h: Use ANSI function declarations
	throughout.  s/lt_ptr/void */g.

2004-04-08  Fredrik Estreen  <estreen@algonet.se>

	* m4/ltdl.m4: Rename shrext to shrext_cmds here too.

2004-04-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	There was no clean separation of abstraction layers in libltdl.
	The first step in fixing this is to factor out the memory
	management abstraction, making a start on removing promiscuity
	from the underlying portability layer:

	* doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): Remove lt_dlmalloc,
	lt_dlrealloc and lt_dlfree references.  The memory management
	layer used by libltdl is now private.
	* libltdl/lt_system.h: New installed header for system portability
	abstraction.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: Use it.
	* libltdl/lt__alloc.c, libltdl/lt__alloc.h: New module above
	system portability layer to abstract ltdl's memory management.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Use lt__alloc.h.
	(closedir): Use free.
	(opendir): Use malloc/free.
	(lt__xalloc_die_callback): Report memory failures through
	lt_dlerror.
	(lt_dlinit): Use it to initialise memory management.
	(LT_DLMALLOC, LT_DLREALLOC, LT_DLFREE, LT_EMALLOC, LT_EREALLOC)
	(rpl_strdup, rpl_realloc, lt_estrdup, lt_emalloc, lt_erealloc):
	Removed in favour of...
	(lt__strdup, lt__memdup, MALLOC, REALLOC, FREE): ...these calls
	from libltdl/lt__alloc.h.  Changed all callers.
	(rpl_argz_append, rpl_argz_create_sep, rpl_argz_insert): As part
	of the portability layer, these functions no longer use libltdl
	memory management API.
	(free_vars): Factored out.
	(LT_DLMEM_REASSIGN): While redoing memory handling, renamed...
	* libltdl/lt__alloc.h (MEMREASSIGN): ...to this.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Let automake track
	dependencies automatically.
	(pkgincludedir): Override from parent package's setting.
	(pkginclude_HEADERS): Install lt_system.h.
	(libltdl_la_SOURCES): Add new files.
	* NEWS: Updated.
	Reported by Dalibor Topic <robilad@kaffe.org>

2004-04-01  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in: Remove an extra eval concat_cmds that some idiot added.
	Fixes double eval on AIX, reported by Albert Chin and Uwe Moeller.

	* NEWS: Add a news item about xlc support that I forgot yesterday.

2004-03-31  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in (darwin): Support IBM's xlc and xlc++.

2004-03-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LANG_C_CONFIG): If $compiler is not set, then
	don't call the macros that test it.
	(_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Ditto.
	(_LT_LANG_F77_CONFIG): Ditto.
	(_LT_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG): Ditto.
	(_LT_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Ditto.

2004-03-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): sed BRE have no alternation, so
	break LT_INIT matcher out.
	(func_serial): Don't escape literal parens for grep BRE.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_INIT): aclocal can't see AC_DEFUN_ONCE, so use
	AC_DEFUN and m4_define.
	* libtoolize.in (func_serial): No longer accept AC_DEFUN_ONCE...
	(func_grep): ...so mere grep is sufficient again...
	(EGREP): ...and this is no longer required.

2004-03-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Use LT_INIT as #serial tag.
	* libtoolize.in: Grok LT_INIT!  Pass A[CM]_PROG_LIBTOOL to...
	(func_serial_update): ...here, we now take an additional parameter
	containing another regex to match ancient serialed files.
	(func_serial): Accept AC_DEFUN_ONCE of the #serial tag...
	(func_grep): ...which requires egrep...
	(EGREP): ...substituted by config.status.
	(func_scan_files): Set seen_libtool if LT_INIT goes by.

	* Makefile.am (pkgmacro_DATA): Install ltoptions.m4.

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Also check $top_builddir for
	config.h.
	(ltdl.o): config.h is in $top_builddir.

2004-03-24  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* NEWS: Explain more fully why we no longer load libraries
	with global symbol resolution.
	* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Add missing
	documentation for 'inherit_rpath' variable.

	* configure.ac: Catch errors during calls to AC_PROG_CXX,
	AC_PROG_CXXCPP and AC_PROG_F77 before LT_INIT.  Only set the
	HAVE_CXX and HAVE_F77 conditions to true if an error didn't
	occur (AC_PROG_CXX leaves CXX="g++" even if it didn't find one).
	Set HAVE_GCJ and HAVE_RC to true correctly as well.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_PROG_GCJ): If AC_PROG_GCJ or AM_PROG_GCJ are
	defined, expand to the definition of those instead of our own.
	Define GCJ to '' instead of 'no' if not found.
	(LT_PROG_RC) Define RC to '' instead of 'no' if not found.
	(_LT_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG): Require LT_PROG_GCJ to be expanded first.
	(_LT_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Require LT_PROG_RC to be expanded first.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_dl_open): Don't load libraries with global
	symbol resolution.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-03-24  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Add new variable, inherit_rpath, if the
	RPATHs of the libraries being linked are inherited in
	the output file. For systems with a linker exhibiting
	this feature, programs/libraries must be relinked at
	installation time.

	* m4/libtool.m4: When linking convenience libraries on Solaris
	with the Sun C++ compiler, pass convenience libraries through
	to the linker with -Qoption between allextract/defaultextract.
	The Sun C++ compiler bundles -Qoption arguments so
	convenience libraries are linked with defaultextract
	otherwise.
	* tagdemo/Makefile.am, tagdemo/main.cpp, tagdemo/conv.h,
	tagdemo/conv.cpp: Augment tagdemo test to link a convenience
	library with a libtool library.

	* ltmain.in: Piecewise linking doesn't work when the output
	file is an absolute path, use the basename only instead.

	* ltmain.in: When a library is installed, dependent on a
	convenience library, and it involves relinking, the object
	files extracted from the convenience library are not removed
	after the relink. This is a problem if you build as non-root,
	install as root, then try to remove the build directory as
	non-root; Clean up properly if relink fails; Change
	"$realname"U to ${realname}T to be consistent.

2004-03-24  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in <prog linkmode>: Always add -L options to
	$newlib_search_path instead of just in scan mode to ensure that
	non-libtool libraries in user-specified directories can be found.

2004-03-22  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Remove unneeded else condition
	code, now the support determination is done in m4.
	(_LT_LANG): Correct comment, unexpected leak from keybuk-lt-tag.patch.

2004-03-21  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_LDFLAGS): Increment CURRENT
	and AGE of libltdl, warranted by the addition of lt_dlhandle_find()
	since 1.5.2.

2004-03-21  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	Further sweeping changes to the user interface to libtool from
	`configure.ac' to allow users to better control the list of
	supported languages.  Three LT_INIT options 'no-lang', 'all-lang'
	and 'auto-lang' (the default) control the initial list and others
	may be added with LT_LANG.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Renamed AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG to _LT_CONFIG
	which is more consistent with our own namespace and gets us further out
	of Autoconf's.
	(_LT_LIBTOOL_TAGS): Output available_tags variable based entirely
	on the value of _LT_TAGS.
	(_LT_COPYING): Call _LT_LIBTOOL_TAGS to output available tags,
	always append tag configuration if the tag is available.
	(LT_LANG): New macro to enable support for a language that accepts
	tag names (eg. "CXX") or human language names (eg. "C++").
	(_LT_LANG): Internal support macro for above that appends the
	tag to _LT_TAGS and calls the appropriate config macro.
	(LT_INIT): Ensure that LT_LANG is not called before LT_INIT.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS): Removed, call LT_LANG for each language now.
	(_LT_AC_TAG_CHECK): Removed, _LT_LANG handles duplicate calls.
	(_LT_LANG_DEFAULT_CONFIG): Macro to set initial language support
	based on options passed to LT_INIT.
	(_LT_SETUP): Call _LT_LANG_DEFAULT_CONFIG.
	(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Removed, handled by _LT_LANG_DEFAULT_CONFIG.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_CXX, _LT_AC_LANG_F77, _LT_AC_LANG_GCJ): Removed,
	automatic language support inclusion now handled by
	_LT_LANG_DEFAULT_CONFIG.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CXX): Obsolete macro, update to LT_LANG(C++).
	(AC_LIBTOOL_F77): Obsolete macro, update to LT_LANG(Fortran 77).
	(AC_LIBTOOL_GCJ): Obsolete macro, update to LT_LANG(Java).
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_C_CONFIG_: Removed.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG): Renamed to _LT_LANG_C_CONFIG, call
	_LT_CONFIG instead of AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG.
	(_LT_SETUP): Replace call to AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_C_CONFIG with call to
	new _LT_LANG_C_CONFIG macro.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Removed.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Renamed to _LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG, call
	_LT_CONFIG instead of AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_F77_CONFIG): Removed.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_F77_CONFIG): Renamed to _LT_LANG_F77_CONFIG, call
	_LT_CONFIG instead of AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG): Removed.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG): Renamed to _LT_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG, call
	_LT_CONFIG instead of AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Removed.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Renamed to _LT_LANG_RC_CONFIG, call
	_LT_CONFIG instead of AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG.
	(LT_AC_PROG_GCJ): Renamed to LT_PROG_GCJ.
	(LT_AC_PROG_RC): Renamed to LT_PROG_RC.
	* m4/ltoptions.m4: Define new 'no-lang', 'auto-lang' and 'all-lang'
	options which set the default for _LT_LANG_DEFAULT_CONFIG.
	* m4/lt~obsolete.m4: Removed AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG, _LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG,
	_LT_AC_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG, _LT_AC_LANG_RC_CONFIG; all of which are no
	long referenced in any way.
	* configure.ac: Enable all languages.
	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure,ac,
	tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/pdemo/configure,ac,
	tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Remove calls to AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS,
	the default 'auto-lang' mode now does the right thing.
	* doc/libtool.texi (The LT_INIT macro): Add documentation for
	new LT_INIT options and the LT_LANG macro, replacing the old
	documentation of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS which is no more.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-03-17  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Removed AC_BEFORE references to AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP
	which is no more.
	* m4/lt~obsolete.m4: As AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP is no longer referenced,
	it can be removed from this file.  Remove _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL also.

2004-03-14  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Remove newlines from lt_ld_extra, so

2004-02-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Sweeping changes to the user interface to libtool from
	`configure.ac' to be more like AC_INIT and accept a space
	delimited list of options.  Instead of calling `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN;
	AC_PROG_LIBTOOL', we now recommend `LT_INIT([dlopen])':

	* m4/libtool.m4	(AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Removed.  Added AU_DEFUNs.
	(LT_INIT): Replace with an Autoconf like interface which accepts a
	version number as a minimum required libtool release at configure
	time.
	* m4/ltoptions.m4: New file inspired by automake/m4/amoptions.m4,
	which additionally flags an error if the configuring libtool
	macros are not new enough according to LT_INIT.
	(LT_OPTION_DEFINE): New macro to declare option handlers.
	(dlopen, win32-dll, shared, disable-shared, static)
	(disable-static, fast-install, disable-fast-install, pic-only)
	(no-pic): Newly LT_OPTION_DEFINEd option handlers that use...
	(_LT_ENABLE_SHARED, _LT_ENABLE_STATIC, _LT_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL)
	(_LT_WITH_PIC, _LT_WIN32_DLL): New macros to handle
	LT_LIBTOOL_INIT options...
	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC)
	(AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):
	...to replace these user interface macros, now defined as
	AU_DEFUNs.
	(AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL):
	Removed.  No longer required with LT_INIT_LIBTOOL interface.
	Added AU_DEFUNs.
	(AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC)
	(AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Changed AU_DEFUNs to match new interface.
	(_LT_SETUP): Internal to LT_INIT, replaces AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP.
	* m4/lt~obsolete.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
	(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN):  More AC_DEFUNs that have been retracted.
	* configure.ac: Use new interface.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Document new interface.

	* Makefile.am (m4/ltversion.m4): Generate serial number by
	removing initial '1.' from the revision, replace @MACRO_SERIAL@
	with this new variable.
	* m4/ltversion.in: Use @MACRO_SERIAL@ for the serial number
	as some shells don't like a '.' when using test.

	* m4/ltversion.in: Add a serial number to this file otherwise
	libtoolize will refuse to copy it into $pkgdatadir, where it
	is needed by m4/libtool.m4.

2004-02-15  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Rename shrext to shrext_cmds.

2004-02-13  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in, libtoolize.in, commit, config/mailnotify: Correctly
	quote usage of $basename and $dirname to avoid (unlikely) path
	expansion.

	* tests/sh.test: Test the config/ltmain.sh and libtoolize in the
	build directory not the source directory, where they won't exist
	during 'make distcheck'.
	* ltmain.in: Revert one line of previous intendation clean-up
	to enable one of the sh.test checks to pass.

	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac: Drop AC_PREREQ back to 2.54, this
	was debris from Gary's cvsapply going mad and wasn't backed
	out.

	* Makefile.am (pkgmacro_DATA): We have to distribute
	m4/ltversion.m4 because it can be needed before the Makefile
	that generates it exists.

2004-02-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* commit (MKSTAMP): Look for mkstamp in the right place.

2004-02-12  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* Makefile.maint, Makefile: Move rules intended for Libtool
	maintainers only out of the Makefile we distribute and into one
	that we only need keep in CVS.
	* README-alpha: Add -fMakefile.maint to the instructions where
	needed.

2004-02-12  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>
	Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: Fix typo: duplcations -> duplications,
	Fix indentation of a handful of badly indented blocks,
	Fix last remaining use of 'grep' to $GREP,
	Remove unnecessary trailing slash where we break a line on a
	command separator.
	* m4/libtool.m4: Also remove unnecessary trailing slash where
	we break a line on a command separator.

2004-02-12  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/ltoptions.m4: This got committed by an over-keen Gary,
	but the support for this isn't ready yet and if aclocal decides
	to m4_include this (which it will) you'll get a non-functioning
	libtool.  Removed.

	* ltmain.in: Remove duplicated version checking block.

	* bootstrap, m4/libtool.m4: Argh, Gary went crazy after cvsapply
	went crazy and backed out more than he should've.  This patch puts
	some of it back again.

	* ltmain.in, libtoolize.in, commit, config/mailnotify: Remove
	$SED from definitions of $dirname and $basename and prefix each
	use with it instead.  Some shells (zsh) treat the expansion as
	a single command instead of a command with arguments.

	* config/mailnotify (func_sendmail): Look for sendmail in a
	couple of common non-PATH locations as well.

	* ltmain.in: Fix typo: macro's -> macros.

	* ltmain.in: Correct definition of basename sed expression to
	not include single quotes.

2004-02-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in: Use $progpath as for ltmain.in to work around the
	IRIX bug described below.
	* commit, config/mailnotify: Ditto. Resynch with cvs-utils HEAD.

2004-02-12  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>,
	    Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (progpath): Work around backward compatibility issue
	on IRIX 6.5. On IRIX 6.4+, sh is ksh but when the shell is invoked
	as "sh" and the current value of the _XPG environment variable is
	not equal to 1 (one), the special positional parameter $0, within
	a function call, is the name of the function. So, rather than
	using "$0" in functions, we set $progpath in the body and use that
	everywhere instead (incase of code refactoring later).
	(EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE, EXIT_MISMATCH): For clarity.

2004-02-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove config/mailnotify after all; it
	is of no use in a distribution tarball.

2004-02-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* commit: Fix cut-n-paste error.

	* commit: Completely change CVS/Root->name sed script to actually
	work when :ext: is not shown.

	* commit: Improve CVS/Root->name sed script to work when :ext: is
	not shown.

2004-02-11  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Fix typo: testring -> teststring.

2004-02-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* commit: Mail a nicer commit notification.

2004-02-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS, bootstrap, configure.ac, ltmain.in, m4/libtool.m4:
	* m4/lt~obsolete.m4, tests/cdemo/configure.ac: Arghh.  cvsapply just
	went crazy and committed a bunch of stuff that shouldn't have been
	in the last changeset.  The patch backs it all out.

	* config/mailnotify: New file for mailing commit notifications,
	imported from cvs-utils.
	* commit: Updated from cvs-utils and tweaked for libtool.
	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add config/mailnotify.

2004-02-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* bootstrap: Remove vcl.tmp, otherwise it can interfere with make.
	* Makefile.am (vcl.tmp): Move comment out of multi-line command,
	as this rule is called from bootstrap as if it were a Makefile.

	* m4/ltversion.in: New file to capture what version number macros
	are being used.
	* Makefile.am (m4/ltversion.m4): New rule to create it from
	m4/ltversion.in.
	(nodist_pkgmacro_DATA): Add m4/ltversion.m4.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Add m4/ltversion.in.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): AC_REQUIRE LTVERSION_VERSION
	from ltversion.m4.
	* bootstrap: Call the Makefile.am to create an initial
	m4/ltversion.m4.
	* ltmain.in: Diagnose version mismatches of various flavours.
	* TODO: Remove mismatch item.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* Makefile.am ($(top_builddir)/config.status): Removed.
	* configure.ac (CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES): This substitution is
	how automake-1.8 now informs all Makefiles when config.status
	needs to be rebuilt.
	Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@src.lip6.fr>

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Generate libtoolize from here.
	* Makefile.am (libtool, libtoolize): These rules are redundant.
	Automake generates better rules for remaking these files.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Catch unexpanded macros with
	beginning with LT_ and _LT_.
	* configure.ac (LT_MAJOR, LT_MINOR, LT_MICRO, LT_ALPHA): Renamed
	to lt_major, lt_minor, lt_micro, lt_alpha to save triggering the
	unexpanded macros error.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROVIDE_IFELSE): Removed.  We now require
	Autoconf 2.58, which ships this macro anyway.

	* Makefile.am: Comment typo.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_PREREQ): Declare the minimum release number
	that is required for the calling code.
	* doc/libtool.texi (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Document it.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2004-02-05  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in (infer_tag, win32_libid): Style changes. Rename
	infer_tag to func_infer_tag and win32_libid to func_win32_libid.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (cygwin): rename win32_libid to func_win32_libid.

2004-02-04  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in (infer_tag): Move tag inferrence to a shell function.
	Also test $base_compile against $CC with escaped arguments. Bug
	reported by Geoff Keating <geoffk@apple.com>.

2004-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Manually make config.guess
	and config.sub executable after they are installed as _DATA.
	We can't use _SCRIPTS because the various program name
	transforms may be applied to them.
	(dist_pkgdata_DATA): List config.guess and config.sub here
	(pkgdata_SCRIPTS): instead of here.

2003-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: Create temporary directory under a strict umask
	rather than running chmod afterwards, preventing a race
	condition where the directory could be replaced with a symbolic
	link in the time between the two commands.

2004-01-31  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE): Change `echo to
	`$echo, causes problems when builtin echo is broken. Reported
	by Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>.

2004-01-27  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	This fixes release procedure problems discovered whilst making
	the 1.5.2 release.

	* Makefile.am (cvs-dist): Because we check whether ChangeLog
	has been committed, this rule can't be run with uncommitted
	source so we can't run 'commit' and don't need to run
	'make dist' a second time.  Fix CVS tag as it should be
	"release-X" not "Release-X".
	(cvs_commit): New rule for the cvs-release chain that runs
	'commit'
	(cvs-release): Depend on cvs-commit, depend on deltas instead of
	cvs-diff and xdelta.
	(cvs-diff): Removed, replaced with delta-diff.
	(delta-diff): Unpack and diff the old and new tarballs rather
	than using CVS, so we get a genuinely complete diff.
	(xdelta): Removed, replaced with delta-xdelta.
	(got-xdelta): New rule for improved reading.
	(delta-xdiff): Copied and cleaned up version of old xdelta rule.
	(deltas): Depends on delta-diff and delta-xdelta (make deltas).
	(cvs-news): Don't depend on timestamps, cvs-dist itself does now.
	(prev-tarball): This is the only place we need a LASTRELEASE check
	so copy the code here and remove the CHECK_RELEASE variable.
	(new-tarball): Check there's a new tarball (did cvs-dist work?)
	(FETCHFILES): Remove obsolete libltdl mentions.
	* README-alpha: Update CVS instructions as everything's changed
	on Savannah.
	(Release procedure): Update NEWS and ChangeLog after changing
	the version number (both times); Run 'make fetch' after running
	'configure' (difficult to do it beforehand); Require 'commit'
	before 'make cvs-dist' as that checks ChangeLog is committed;
	'make deltas' instead of 'cvs-diff' and 'xdelta', pass LASTRELEASE
	to make instead of OLDVERSION (and it's mandatory); Clean up
	uploading paragraph; Clearer announcement sending instruction;
	Removed ftp-upload@gnu.org mail as that's not necessary now;
	Make web page updating instructions a bit clearer; Add an instruction
	to update the manual for non-alphas.
	(Alpha release note template): Add a Subject; update CVS instructions.
	(Full release note template): Add a Subject; update CVS instructions.
	* configure.ac: Add dist-bzip2 to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE as we talk
	about bz2 files in our release announcements; remove old reference
	to OLDVERSION.

2004-01-25  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* NEWS: Include 1.5.2 release information.

2004-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	This fixes a bug in the libtoolize ltdl source installation rules,
	which were copying Makefile.in from the libtool tree into the
	package running libtoolize.  Now we explicitly list the files to
	copy to force the package to generate its own Makefile.in:

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_SOURCES, libltdlc_la_SOURCES):
	Add ltdl.h.
	(ltdldatadir): New variable for installation directory of
	libtoolize --ltdl files.
	(ltdldata_DATA): Tell automake what files to copy there at install
	time (and remove at unistall time!).
	(local-install-files): Removed.  This hack is not required
	anymore, the automake generated install rules are much more
	advanced than this.
	* Makefile.am (install-data-hook, uninstall-local): Removed.
	Libltdl files for libtoolize are installed by their own Makefile
	now.

2004-01-22  Jeff Squyres  <jsquyres@lam-mpi.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O): Some compilers
	(e.g. Intel Linux icc compiler) write temporary files to the current
	directory. These compilers do support -c and -o simultaneously but
	wrongly fail the test due to the failure to create temporary
	files. It is incorrect to penalize compilers which write temporary
	files to the current directory so the 'chmod -w .' is therefore
	removed.

2004-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_EGREP): Wrapper for AC_PROG_GREP.
	AIX has a brain-dead grep that only handles lines < 2048
	characters.  Default GREP incase we are not using a future
	autoconf that sets it for us :-)  Changed all callers to use $GREP
	instead of grep, and to AC_REQUIRE LT_AC_PROG_EGREP.
	Declare GREP as a libtool config var.
	* ltmain.in: Use it.
	* tests/sh.test (scripts): Accept `if $GREP "^foo=bar"' by
	tightening the regexp.
	Reported by Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

2004-01-21  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [netbsd*]: Remove
	gratuitous ${libname}${release}${shared_ext} from
	library_names_spec.

2004-01-21  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD_RELOAD_FLAG): On darwin change the
	reload_cmds to use $CC, otherwise ld will thin out any fat
	objects.

2004-01-18  Benjamin Reed  <ranger@befunk.com>

	* ltmain.in: Fix handling of frameworks in search paths.  Also
	a one-liner fix to eval shrext in the libtool library search.

2004-01-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require 1.8 for bootstrap, or
	else aclocal.m4 is huge, and m4 directory is not distributed.

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS): Create config.h in
	$top_srcdir.
	* m4/ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL): Run AC_CONFIG_HEADERS for the user if
	necessary. Calculate filename from first argument to
	AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, and substitute as CONFIG_H.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Make sure we are searching in
	$top_srcdir for headers.
	(DEFS): Override the default HAVE_CONFIG_H with the config.h
	filename.
	(ltdl.lo): Reference config.h via $(CONFIG_H).
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (HAVE_CONFIG_H): Ditto.

2004-01-15  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/lt~obsolete.m4: Add a file containing aclocal-fooling
	macro definitions which stop the contents of an installed
	libtool.m4 ending up in our aclocal.m4 when we bootstrap.
	* Makefile.am (pkgmacro_DATA): Note that we don't need to add
	lt~obsolete.m4 to this list.

2004-01-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_COPYING): Factor out copyright message so it
	only needs to be updated in one place.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Refactor to be more readable.  Only add
	tags if a compiler was found; ie if you have no gcj compiler,
	don't tack the GCJ tag onto the generated libtool script.

2004-01-13  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Quote shrext as it is evaled in ltmain.

2004-01-11  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: new -precious-files-regex link mode option
	to prevent removal of matching files from the temporary
	output directory.
	(Debian Bug #221420)
	* doc/libtool.texi: document the new option.
	* NEWS: announce the new option.

2004-01-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/xfunc_copy/Xfunc_copy.
	Now the test can actually succeed sometimes.

2004-01-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in: Break out of the command argument parse loop when
	-- is encountered.

2004-01-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/test "x/test "X/ to keep
	tests/sh.test happy.

2004-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (aclocal_macros, aclocal_DATA): Removed.
	(EXTRA_DIST): Remove m4 macro files; they are automatically
	added by automake.
	(pkgmacrodir): Where to install libtool macro files.
	(pkgmacro_DATA): List installable libtool macro files.
	(install-data-local): Remove previous versions of ltdl.m4 and
	libtool.m4 from their old location.
	* libtoolize.in: Use new pkgmacrodir installed macros when
	libtoolizing a project.  Treat libtool.m4 and ltdl.m4 specially,
	and func_serial_update() any other files from pkgmacrodir.
	(pkgmacrodir): Where to find installed libtool macro files.
	(aclocaldir): Removed.
	(func_copy_all_files): Add an optional callback parameter to
	control how files are copied.  If the callback is passed, don't
	tell it whether it can copy or not.
	(func_serial): Exchange parameters and make macro_regex optional,
	so that this function can be used to extract serial numbers from
	files with the traditional /^# serial [1-9][0-9]*$/ syntax.
	Changed all callers.
	(func_serial_update): Make macro_regex optional last parameter, so
	that this function can be used as a callback for
	func_copy_all_files().  Changed all callers.
	* m4/ltsugar.m4: Add a serial number.

2004-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	A complete rewrite of the m4 code involved in the generation of
	libtool via config.status.  The old way involved manually
	synchronising disparate bits of shell code in several macros, to
	quote a copy of a shell variable, put that in config.status, maybe
	add it to some quotation loops to prevent early expansion, and
	then add a block to _LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS to bring it into the
	libtool script.  The new way is to mark shell variables for
	propogation using _LT_DECL for language independent variables, or
	_LT_TAGDECL for those that need to be propogated in several
	language flavours.  The marking can be done in the macro that
	probes the variables, and this new m4 machinery takes care of
	synchronising all the other bits of code at autoconf time:

	* m4/ltsugar.m4:  New file.  Macros that are useful outside the
	context of libtool.  Initially, contains some generalised list
	management macros, and the scaffolding for dictionary type data
	storage and retrieval.
	* Makefile.am (aclocal_macros): Install ltsugar.m4.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_DECL): Mark a shell variable for export to
	the libtool script, along with a comment, and hints for quoting
	and renaming.
	(_LT_TAGDECL): Similarly mark a tagged shell variable for export
	in each tag.
	(lt_decl_tag_varnames, lt_decl_quote_varnames)
	(lt_decl_dquote_varnames, lt_decl_varnames_tagged)
	(lt_decl_all_varnames):  New utility macros for managing lists of
	shell variable names from _LT_DECL and _LT_TAGDECL.
	(_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARATIONS, _LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE):
	Expand to correctly quoted variable declarations in config.status
	from all marked shell variables.
	(_LT_LIBTOOL_DECLARE): Expand to commented and quoted variable
	declaration for libtool tag section.
	(_LT_LIBTOOL_CONFIG_VARS, _LT_LIBTOOL_TAG_VARS): Pass all marked
	variables to _LT_LIBTOOL_DECLARE.
	(_LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS): Use _LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARATIONS and
	friends to generate all the variable passing shell code for
	config.status, to get marked variables from libtool.m4 into
	libtool itself eventually.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Generate marked variable code for libtool tag
	configuration.  Changed all client macros to mark variables
	suitably rather than the hand pasting that was necessary
	previously.
	(AC_PROG_SED): Renamed from LT_AC_PROG_SED.
	(LT_AC_PROG_SED): Wrap AC_PROG_SED, and mark shell variables for
	propogation to the libtool script.

2004-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (seen_gettext): Removed unused variable.

2004-01-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): Don't assume the existence of
	aclocal.m4.  Make the comment more descriptive.
	Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@src.lip6.fr>

	* NEWS: Note libtoolize changes.

	* ChangeLog.2003: New file, containing all the ChangeLog entries
	from 2003.  Trimmed ChangeLog accordingly.

	* ltmain.in: Output 2004 in the copyright from libtool --version.

2004-01-03  Stefan Nordhausen  <nordhaus@informatik.hu-berlin.de>
	Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: Don't use the mkdir -p option when creating a
	temporary output directory so a symlink attack can't be used to
	arbitrarily chmod other directories on the system if libtool
	gets run as root.

2004-01-02  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Ensure that ${ZSH_VERSION+set} is properly escaped.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (CDPATH): Change the CDPATH setting so that it
	allows for zsh differences, as noted in the autoconf manual's
	Portable Shell - Special Shell Variables section.

2004-01-02  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* .cvsignore: Ignore stamp-vcl created by the Makefile.

2004-01-02  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>
	Joe Orton  <joe@manyfish.co.uk>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Add extra blackslash
	in front of all the inner double-quotes as this is removed
	on Solaris, IRIX and AIX leading to broken definitions
	in config.status.

2004-01-02  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* NEWS: Next release will be in 2004.

2003-12-31  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.sh: Infer tagged configuration for link mode with the
	full compiler arguments available rather than only the first.

2003-12-31  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.sh: Quote $exec_cmd before it is eval'ed, so that
	libtool --mode=execute echo '4 * 5' does not expand the `*'.

2003-11-28  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Move things around so that "setopt NO_GLOB_SUBST"
	to make zsh behave wrt \ escapes happens early in config.status.

2003-11-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.ac: Removed.
	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS): Merged from
	libltdl/configure.ac.
	(AC_LIB_LTDL): Ditto.
	(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add libltdl/Makefile.
	(AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): Removed.
	(AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS): Remove generation of libltdl/ltmain.sh.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libtool): Removed references, since we now
	share $(top_builddir)/libtool.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2003-11-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (vcl.tmp): Be careful of VPATH builds.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add stamp-vcl, or we go back to a
	double configure run from a distributed tarball :-?

2003-11-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Okay, the problem I am trying to solve is that when a change (say,
	bumping the version to 1.6 for the next release) is committed, the
	timestamp in ChangeLog is updated, but ltmain.sh and libtoolize
	inherit the pre-commit build number from config.status.  This
	delta notes the change in build number in the unstamped ChangeLog
	and forces a rerun of configure etc. to roll a new ltmain.sh with
	the correct TIMESTAMP:

	* Makefile.am (stamp-vcl): We actually need a new config.status to
	force the correct timestamp into libtoolize and ltmain.sh,
	rerunning autoconf has no effect at all if configure.ac hasn't
	changed.

2003-11-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (stamp-vcl): New rules to force libtool and
	libtoolize scripts to update when the TIMESTAMP changes in
	ChangeLog, but the file modification time doesn't (e.g in cvs
	commit).  Otherwise we'll carry on releasing tarballs with the
	wrong version numbers in the tools!

	* config/mkstamp: Change output format to ` $rev $date'.
	* configure.ac: Make the banner more like suggestions in
	http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards_toc.html Section 4.6.
	* libtoolize.in: Make --version output conform to the GNU
	standard.
	* ltmain.in: Ditto. And tweak the generated file headers to
	match.

2003-11-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (config.status): Removed.  Rebuilding config.status
	isn't enough, because the TIMESTAMP in configure is still out
	of date.
	(configure): We actually need a new configure to force the
	correct timestamp into ltmain.sh.

	* Makefile.am (config/ltmain.sh): Removed.  Rebuilding ltmain.sh
	isn't enough, because the TIMESTAMP in config.status is still out
	of date.
	(config.status): We actually need a new config.status to force the
	correct timestamp into ltmain.sh.

	* Makefile.am (config/ltmain.sh): Note the dependency on the
	timestamp in ChangeLog so we don't ship libtools that report the
	wrong version number :-/

	* bootstrap: Explain automake and autoconf version dependencies
	truthfully, and the difference between bootstrap and user
	dependencies.
	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): List AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS here.
	* Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am
	(AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Removed from here.

2003-11-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* tests/defs (func_configure): cdemo, demo and mdemo are shows
	signs of indeterminacy for some users.  Be more verbose during
	failure to help track down the cause.

2003-11-22  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in: Check for module_cmds if max_cmd_len is exceeded too.

	* ltmain.in: Move eval to after command separation to allow ~ in paths.

	* tests/demo-hardcode.test: Call ./libtool not libtool.

	* ltmain.in: Test $old_striplib before using it, not $striplib.

2003-11-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.ac (LASTRELEASE): Calculate it as best as we can from
	AC_PACKAGE_VERSION.
	* Makefile.am (distdir): Remove dependency on timestamps so that
	it is possible to roll a dist without contacting the cvs server.
	Use `make cvs-release' for that.
	(cvs-news): Extracted from cvs-dist.
	(cvs-dist): Depend on cvs-news.
	(CHECK_LASTRELEASE): Check LASTRELEASE has been set.
	(prev-tarball): New rule.  Use LASTRELEASE to make sure the
	previous release tarball is present.
	(cvs-diff): Use CHECK_LASTRELEASE.
	(xdelta): Ditto.
	(cvs-release): Depend on prev-tarball, timestamps, cvs-news and
	fetch. Provided you set LASTRELEASE appropriately, making a full
	cvs release is just a matter of `make cvs-release', and submitting
	the files to ftp-upload.

2003-11-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): Ensure config.status has a
	value for `ac_aux_dir' when automake is not used.
	Reported by Patrick Welche <prlw1@newn.cam.ac.uk>.

	* configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): AS_HELP_STRING was introduced after
	autoconf-2.57 was released.

2003-11-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlhandle_find): New function to find a handle
	by module name.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlhandle_find): Declare it.
	* doc/libtool.texi (User defined module data): Document it.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2003-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Uncomment call to
	_LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS.
	(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG, AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Accumulate tag generation
	for `config.status' using _LT_CONFIG_SAVE_COMMANDS.  Remove
	AC_MSG_NOTICE noise now that libtool is generated by a single
	config.status tag.
	* Makefile.am (libtool): Specify CONFIG_COMMANDS properly now that
	libtool is generated in one pass.

	* configure.ac (CONF_SUBDIRS): Make these relative to
	tests/Makefile.am.
	(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): Adjust to compensate for having removed the
	`tests/' part in CONF_SUBDIRS.
	* tests/Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): Distribute these directories.
	(SUBDIRS): Set to `.', a NOP, to workaround an automake bug which
	ignores DIST_SUBDIRS unless SUBDIRS is also set.
	* Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): Don't try to distribute the tests
	subdirectories from here, since the recursive automake dist rule
	only works with direct child directories.  Defer to
	tests/Makefile.am in this case.

2003-11-15  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: In compile mode, delay parsing of -shared, -static,
	-prefer-pic and -prefer-non-pic until after tagged configuration
	has been read.  In link mode, read tagged configuration before
	parsing any arguments.  These arguments will now work when using
	a non-C compiler.

2003-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS: Mention AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): List ChangeLog files correctly.

	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
	tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
	tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Declare just
	the tags we need using AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, reducing the size of the
	configure script by 50% in most cases.

2003-11-14  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): libltdl does in fact load
	dependency libs for lt_dlopen()ed modules.

2003-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Run our configure.ac files through Autoconf 2.59's autoupdate, and
	then tweak the results by hand:

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): In common with all the other
	AC_PROG_ macros, AC_SUBST the discovered LD.
	(AC_PROG_NM): Similarly for NM.
	(LT_AC_PROG_SED): Similarly for SED.
	* configure.ac: No need to SUBST NM and LD manually any more.
	(AC_PREREQ): Conservatively downgrade from 2.59 to 2.54.
	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
	tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
	tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Ditto.
	* m4/libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED,
	AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC,
	AM_PROG_LD, AM_PROG_NM): AU_DEFUN these macros so autoupdate can
	use the newer definitions.

2003-11-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	The rules for uploading releases to gnu.org have been updated, and
	are in fact now rather complicated.  This delta updates the
	release instructions to the describe the new process, and updates
	the maintainer rules to help automate many of the steps:

	* README-alpha: Updated release instructions.
	* Makefile.am (GPG): Name of the program for generating signatures
	for files to be uploaded.
	(XDELTA, XDELTA_OPTIONS): Invocation of xdelta.
	(cvs-dist): Run distcheck before tagging the cvs tree incase
	distcheck fails, and then generate the gpg signature files.
	(cvs-diff): Generate the gpg signature files for the diff.
	(xdelta): New rule for generating the xdelta diffs and associated
	gpg signature files.
	(cvs-release): New rule to do all of the above, if you don't mind
	typing your gpg passphrase over and over again. :-)
	(fetch): New rule inspired by automakes similar rule for updating
	files maintained outside the project.
	* config/config.guess, config/config.sub: Updated with the new
	fetch rule.

2003-11-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinit): Save a function call for each loader
	added to the list, in exchange for appending loaders to the list
	with O(N) rather than O(1).  The longest the loader list can ever
	get is 4 (on cygwin with dld installed) so it probably constitutes
	a small speedup, in addition to making the code much more readable.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Don't define the value for
	ltmain unconditionally.
	(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): New macro to ensure that the
	shell variable `ltmain' actually points at a suitable `ltmain.sh'.
	(_AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Require it.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG, _LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Invoke it.
	* Makefile.am (libtool): ltmain.sh is in the build tree.
	* libltdl/configure.ac: Ditto.

2003-11-10  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: Add -pthread and similar to $deplibs ($compile_deplibs
	and $finalize_deplibs for programs) when found on the command line
	or in a .la file's dependency_libs (but don't place them there) so
	they are honoured when linking both programs and libraries.

2003-11-10  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4  (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [linux]: Include
	directories found in /etc/ld.so.conf in sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec.

2003-11-09  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* ltmain.in (linkalldeplibs,darwin): Fix a bug reported by Idar
	Tollefsen where a dir could be added to the link line with no '-L'
	on darwin.

2003-11-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
	tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
	tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac:
	s/AM_PROG_LIBTOOL/AC_PROG_LIBTOOL/. Marching boldly into the 21th
	century :-$

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, AC_ENABLE_SHARED,
	AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC, AC_DISABLE_STATIC,
	AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AM_PROG_LIBTOOL,
	AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED,
	AM_DISABLE_STATIC): These macros must be AC_DEFUNed after all,
	otherwise aclocal can't find them when it tries to construct
	`aclocal.m4'.

	* Makefile.am (install-data-local): Wipe out old installation
	pkgdatadir before installing new files.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): If libtoolize is run before
	automake has created install-sh and configure.ac does not mention
	AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, fall back to the current directory for auxdir.

2003-11-07  Robert Millan  <zeratul2@wanadoo.es>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD) [GNU/KNetBSD]: Detect
	inter-library dependencies.

2003-11-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_FILE_LTDLL_C): Removed; no longer in use.

	* m4/libtool.m4: s/ifelse(/m4_if(/g
	(_LT_AC_SYS_LIBPATH_AIX, _LT_AC_SHELL_INIT,
	_LT_AC_PROG_ECHO_BACKSLASH, AC_LIBTOOL_LINKER_OPTION,
	AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, _LT_AC_TAG_CHECK, _LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG,
	AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC,
	AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL,
	AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL, _LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG,
	_LT_AC_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG, _LT_AC_LANG_RC_CONFIG, AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG,
	_LT_AC_TAGVAR, AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED,
	AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Use
	m4_define instead of AC_DEFUN for internal macros that do not
	AC_PROVIDE or AC_REQUIRE, and documented user macros that cannot
	be AC_REQUIREd because they need arguments, or because that would
	violate the documented API.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Add a new
	delay_single_quote_subst sed script to quote single quotes in
	variables that are copied to `config.status'.
	(_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE): New macro to apply
	delay_single_quote_subst to a named variable.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Use _LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE to declare all
	`configure' variables that are copied to `config.status'.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_PIC): Fix a quoting bug exposed by
	_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE using the null quadrigraph in the
	rvalues of lt_prog_compiler_pic.

2003-11-06  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE): Recognise the
	'R' symbol type so read-only symbols can be exported when combining
	GCC and Solaris LD.

2003-11-06  James Henstridge  <james@daa.com.au>,
	Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [Linux]: Fix the
	-export-symbols and -export-symbols-regex options.

2003-11-06  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* tests/demo-nopic.test: Skip test on hppa, which don't like
	non-PIC shared libraries.

2003-11-06  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo2/configure.ac: process 'libtool --features'
	from Makefile, not configure -- because libtool doesn't
	exist at configure time.

	* ltmain.in (find_executable, check_executable) [cygwin*, mingw*]:
	binary wrapper used with uninstalled executables breaks when
	invoked via execlp/execvp (that is, via $PATH).  Handle that case.
	(fnqualify): Subsumed into find_executable.

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [cygwin*, mingw*]:
	when extracting symbols from an import lib (occurs if
	--enable-shared --disable-static), the output of
	$global_symbol_pipe is not the same as 	when extracting from a
	static library (the default case). Add extra filters to
	$export_symbols_cmds to process this sort of output in addition to
	'normal' static-lib output.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2003-11-06  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>,
	Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_USE_POSIX_DIRENT): Factored out.
	(LT_USE_WINDOWS_DIRENT_EMULATION): Move to after include "ltdl.h",
	as they are affected by __WINDOWS__ definition.
	(LT_READTEXT_MODE): Use textmode to read .la files.
	(lt_dlinit): Use LoadLibrary loader as a fallback on cygwin.

2003-11-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (__WINDOWS__): Define this if _WIN32 or WIN32 are
	defined, unless __CYGWIN__ or __CYGWIN32__ are defined.
	(LT_SCOPE): Now set without reference to __CYGWIN__ definition,
	since __WINDOWS__ now implies !__CYGWIN__ after canonicalisation.
	(LT_PARAMS, lt_ptr): Use canonicalised __WINDOWS__ to determine
	which values to set these macros to.

2003-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* README-alpha: Mention autotools-announce@gnu.org, and update release
	note templates.

2003-11-01  Scott James Remnant  <scott@netsplit.com>

	* ltmain.in: When relinking, place the -L parameter containing
	the installation prefix directory after the intended destination,
	so we don't accidentally link against an older installed library.

2003-11-01  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* tests/mdemo2/Makefile.am: Let mdemo2 find ltdl.h again.

2003-10-30  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (Darwin): Fix stupidities for darwin tags support.
	Makes it work again if AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS is specified in configure.ac.
	Bug reported by Joe Orton and Christian Schaffner.

2003-10-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Start to eliminate the double run of configure in a fresh CVS
	checkout by generating ltmain.sh, using that to create libtool,
	and then adding the tags to that, all from config.status.

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Make config/ltmain.sh, and copy
	it to libltdl.
	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): This file is now
	created by config.status.  Adjust this rule.
	(libtoolize): Set CONFIG_COMMANDS to empty to prevent regenerating
	the libtool script as a side effect of running this rule.
	* libtool.m4: Bump serial number.  Fix comment typos.
	(_LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL_INIT, _LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL,
	_LT_CONFIG_SAVE_COMMANDS, _LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS: New macros.  They
	don't work for some reason - the variable value quoting in the
	init section is all wrong.  Not used at the moment.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Generate libtool from config.status.
	(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Add the tags in config.status.
	(compiler_DEFAULT): Save the compiler value for the DEFAULT tag,
	or it gets overwritten by the other macros.
	(EOF): Globally replace with _LT_EOF to avoid namespace pollution.
	* tests/demo/configure.ac (STATIC): Check $enable_static instead
	of running ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
	(BINARY_HELLDL): Check $lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe with case
	instead of grepping ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
	* tests/pdemo/configure.ac (STATIC, BINARY_HELLDL): Ditto.
	* doc/libtool.texi (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add some notes about trying
	to get config details from `libtool --config'.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2003-10-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ChangeLog, ChangeLog.0, ChangeLog.1: Refactored...
	* ChangeLog, ChangeLog.2002, ChangeLog.2001, ChangeLog.2000,
	ChangeLog.1999, ChangeLog.1998, ChangeLog.1997, ChangeLog.1996:
	...into entries by year for easier copyright confirmation.

	* configure.ac, libltdl/configure.ac, tests/cdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/demo/configure.ac, tests/depdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/f77demo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/mdemo2/configure.ac, tests/pdemo/configure.ac,
	tests/tagdemo/configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Remove redundant
	arguments.
	* libltdl/configure.ac: Use quadrigraphs to escape macronames.

	* bootstrap (reconfdirs): Same as yesterday, only with portable
	bourne shell syntax.  :-/

2003-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* bootstrap (reconfdirs): Overridable top dirs for bootstrap, for
	those times when you don't want to wait for all of the test
	directories to be rebootstrapped!

2003-10-19  Kevin P. Fleming  <kpfleming@backtobasicsmgmt.com>
	Charles Wilson <cygwin@cwilson.fastmail.fm>

	* ltmain.in: include --tag options, if specified, in the
	relink_command in uninstalled .la files.  Also, preserve --silent,
	--debug options when libtool re-execs itself.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2003-10-19  Charles Wilson  <cygwin@cwilson.fastmail.fm>

	* libtoolize.in: protect sed expression against
	AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR_DEFAULT.

2003-10-16  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): For MinGW, reverted DLL
	check method back to a working objdump-based test.  This is not as
	concrete a test as using the 'file' command, but it does not
	require that the 'file' command be available.

2003-10-15  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* doc/libtool.texi (AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS): Incorporate documentation
	for AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS macro to specifify libtool tags. The now
	defunct --with-tags option was never documented.

2003-10-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* m4/libtool.m4: Restrict the list of tags that can be created
	with a new AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS([tag1 tag2 ...]) macro. Deprecate
	--with-tags.

2003-10-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in: Typo when copying config.sub.
	From Patrick Welche <prlw1@newn.cam.ac.uk>

	* demo/Makefile.am (libhell0_a_SOURCES): Do not name sources
	already built with libtool...
	(libhell0_a_LIBADD): ...instead name the objects directly.  This
	prevents a long standing warning from automake 1.7+.
	* pdemo/Makefile.am (libhell0_a_SOURCES, libhell0_a_LIBADD):
	Ditto.

	* bootstrap: Make the fake files valid shell scripts with a
	comment incase they get left around.
	(LIBTOOLIZE): Use a dummy script to prevent the installed
	`libtoolize' from trashing the distributed libtool.m4,
	config.guess and config.sub.

	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR, AC_CONFIG_TESTFILES): Comment
	this out for now, the autotest testsuite rewrite is not ready
	yet.

	* tests/cdemo/Makefile.am, tests/demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/depdemo/Makefile.am, tests/f77demo/Makefile.am,
	tests/mdemo/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo2/Makefile.am,
	tests/pdemo/Makefile.am, tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am (top_distdir):
	Removed. `autoreconf' needs literals in ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS.

2003-10-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in (func_mkdir_p): Synch with tests/defs; if there
	are no more directories in the stack, break out of the loop.

	* tests/Makefile.am (COMMON_TESTS): Remove pdemo-unst.test, which
	isn't a real test.

2003-10-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Refactor all the test case common code into shell functions in
	tests/defs, and move the various demo directories out of
	$top_srcdir, and into tests too.  The refactoring showed up a
	number of inconsistencies and latent bugs, as well as fixing (I
	think!!) the long-standing annoyance with some of the tests giving
	spurious failures intermittently.  While I was here, emacs kindly
	removed a lot of bogus whitespace and added copyright notices for
	us:

	* cdemo, demo, depdemo, f77demo, mdemo, mdemo2, pdemo, tagdemo:
	Moved from here...
	* tests/cdemo, tests/demo, tests/depdemo, tests/f77demo,
	tests/mdemo, tests/mdemo2, tests/pdemo, tests/tagdemo: ...to
	here.
	* tests/defs: Factor much common functionality from the test
	scripts into shell functions.  Added a copyright notice.
	* tests/assign.test, tests/cdemo-conf.test, tests/cdemo-exec.test,
	tests/cdemo-make.test, tests/cdemo-shared.test,

	Much as we have tried not to make it the callers' responsibility
	to maintain an lt_dlrealloc function pointer, it is too difficult
	to implement realloc as malloc/memcpy/free without knowing the
	size of the original block.  rpl_realloc has been deprecated since
	2002-10-30, but kaffe has real failures with that so it's time to
	bite the bullet.  Caller gets to maintain lt_dlrealloc:

	* NEWS (1.5.1): Updated.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_DLREALLOC): Use lt_dlrealloc so the user can
	update the function pointer to match lt_dlmalloc.
	(lt_emalloc): Use lt_dlrealloc rather than hardcoding realloc.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): Describe lt_dlrealloc now
	that it too has become part of the exported interface to libltdl.

	to report in lt_dlerror(). Otherwise the error is always
	"Symbol _foo not in /usr/lib/libSystem.dylib".
	Thanks to Chris Zubrzycki for reporting this.

	and reset them for a C++ environment.  Use the with_gnu_ld setting
	from AC_PROG_LD.

2003-02-28  Ralph Schleicher  <rs@nunatak.allgaeu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Only append a dot to the wrapper script when
	building on cygwin/MSYS (check for $build, not $host).

2003-02-27  Samuel Meder  <meder@mcs.anl.gov>

	* libtool.m4 (ia64): Add support for Intel compiler (ecc) on IA64
	Linux.

2003-02-27  Benjamin Reed <ranger@befunk.com>

	* THANKS: Added people who have submitted 3 or more patches
	to libtool to the THANKS file.
	* README: Added notes about the Darwin (MacOSX) support.

2003-02-25  Bob McElrath  <bob+libtool@mcelrath.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_PIC): Add support for
	the Compaq C compiler for Alpha Linux.

2003-02-25  Benjamin Reed  <ranger@befunk.com>

	* libtool.m4 (darwin): Disable hardcoding library paths to
	make relinking unnecessary.

2003-02-24  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.ac: Use AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.]) to place
	auxilary files in the libltdl directory.
	* Makefile.am: Add to the ltmain.sh rule to copy it into the
	libltdl subdirectory.
	* bootstrap: Explicitly handle ltmain.sh in libltdl, and pass
	--copy to automake.

2003-02-24  Ralph Schleicher  <rs@nunatak.allgaeu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Check for ar.

2003-02-23  Peter O'Gorman  <peter@pogma.com>

	* libtool.m4 (darwin): Revamp darwin platform support.
	* ltdl.m4 (darwin): Support dlcompat if found.
	* ltmain.in: Make sure ranlib is run if needed when piecewise
	linking.

2003-02-23  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (--help): Show mailing-address for bug reports.
	(--version): Mention only the most recent copyright year.
	* libtoolize.in (--help): Show mailing-address for bug reports.
	(--version): Mention only the most recent copyright year.

2003-02-19  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): Use $CC instead of GCC.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Preserve variables used by AC_PROG_LD,
	and reset them for a C++ environment.  Use the with_gnu_ld setting
	from AC_PROG_LD.

	* libtool.m4: Replace $linker_flags with $compiler_flags wherever
	it is used as argument to $CC.

	* libtool.m4: Use linux version_type on IRIX with GNU ld.
	Prefix -soname, -set_version and their arguments with ${wl}.  Add
	-melf* linker scripts to LD, and use them to determine libsuff,
	shlibsuff and libmagic.

2003-02-17  Allan Sandfeld Jensen  <snowwolf@one2one-networks.com>

	* libtool.m4: Intel icc fixups for version 7.0.

2003-02-17  Ralph Schleicher  <rs@nunatak.allgaeu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Prepend a dot to
	the value of the shrext (aka shared_ext) variable and delete it
	from the library_names_spec and soname_spec definitions.  That
	way the user can omit the shared library suffix by setting it
	to the empty string.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Strengthen renaming commands for
	the KCC compiler.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Link mode): Update the manual.

2003-02-17  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* ltmain.in (win32_libid): Rewritten to improve speed.

2003-02-11  Richard Dawe  <rich@phekda.freeserve.co.uk>

	* libtoolize.in: Use the program found by AC_PROG_LN_S
	to create symlinks.

2003-02-08  Jan Kratochvil  <project-libtool@jankratochvil.net>

	* ltmain.in: Handle duplicate object file names when performing
	piecewise archive linking by renaming object files when needed.

2003-02-05  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_CHECK_LIBM): Search for a real symbol in
	the math library rather than 'main', it causes problems for
	C++ compilers with certain Auto* tools.
	(AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): ditto.

2003-02-05  Christian Cornelssen  <ccorn@cs.tu-berlin.de>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LANG_CXX_CONFIG)
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Rewrite printf commands so
	that the format string cannot be mistaken as an option.
	Reported by Martin MOKREJS.

2003-02-05  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4: Modify the sys_lib_search_path_spec to allow
	for either native sed or GNU sed to be used.

2003-02-04  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	* libtool.m4: don't use -nodefaultlibs in archive_commands
	or archive_expsym_commands on NetBSD.

2003-02-04  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Change setting of archive_cmds_need_lc
	so that it doesn't overwrite the previous setting.

2003-01-28  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Allow compiler variable, CC, CXX, etc. to
	be a program name with arguments. Original version stripped
	arguments for CC.

2003-01-28  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* ltmain.in: add code for a binary wrapper
	to use with uninstalled executables on cygwin/mingw.
	Make sure that --mode=clean gets shell wrapper and
	binary wrapper.  When sourcing the shell wrapper,
	invoke using a terminal `.' on cygwin/mingw to
	avoid the automatic append-.exe behavior.

2003-01-28  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Hardcode library paths into libraries on IRIX.

2003-01-18  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_PIC): Don't add -DPIC
	for languages other than C and C++.

2003-01-13  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Add support for hppa*64* based on
	a patch by Ross Alexander <ross.alexander@uk.neceur.com>.
	Credit to Ross! Use +b to hardcode library runtime path.
	Add new variable, $hardcode_libdir_flag_spec_ld, that
	is equivalent to $hardcode_libdir_flag_spec but is used
	when ld is used for linking. This works around having to
	set wl=''.

2003-01-12  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Revert an
	accidental rearranging of dylib and so for darwin.

2003-01-10  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Modify the
	"-shrext" option so that is works properly under Darwin.
	Modify the processing of 'gcc -print-search-dirs' under
	Darwin to make it behave like GNU gcc does.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Single quote $shrext.
	* ltimain.in: Expand shared_ext just before it is used
	so that it can be conditional on the value of $module.

2002-12-31  Benjamin Reed  <ranger@befunk.com>

	* ltmain.in [darwin]: disable lazy linking, needed
	to resolve C++ global constructor issues

2002-12-30  Ralph Schleicher  <rs@nunatak.allgaeu.org>

	Rework by Robert Boehne <rboehne@gnu.org>
	* ltmain.in: New link option -shrext.
	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): New libtool variable shrext.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Replace all hard coded shared
	library file name extensions in library_names_spec and
	soname_spec with $shrext.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Link mode): Document it.

2002-12-30  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): modify
	$archive_expsym_cmds to restore support for using
	.def files via the -export-symbols switch.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS([TAGNAME]): in both the [CXX]
	branch and the default branch, improve $export_symbols_cmds
	so that DATA symbols are properly  labelled.  In the default
	branch, duplicate the _CXX_CONFIG correction for
	$archive_expsym_cmds.

2002-12-30  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_RC): AC_PROG_RC doesn't exist --
	but we do AC_DEFUN something called LT_AC_PROG_RC.
	Call that instead.

2002-12-30  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Copy the section
	for Darwin from AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS so that the CXX
	tag doesn't use the g++ defaults for the OS X compiler.

2002-12-30  Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Sync methods used to detect GNU ld.

2002-12-20  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION,
	AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O): Do not escape } or ? in sed argument.

2002-12-19  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Use the sed program found by LT_AC_PROG_SED
	so that relink commands don't get truncated.

2002-12-18  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4: Move AC_REQUIRE([LT_AC_PROG_SED]) to AC_PROG_LD
	so it is invoked earlier.

2002-12-11  Allan Sandfeld Jensen  <snowwolf@one2one-networks.com>

	* libtool.m4: Add support for Intel icc compiler for Linux.

2002-12-11  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Revert the version +1 change for IRIX, it could
	cause compatibility problems.

2002-11-22  Christian Cornelssen  <ccorn@cs.tu-berlin.de>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION,
	AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O): Changed method for compilation with
	custom flags to be language-independent.  Thereby removed
	CFLAGS/GCJFLAGS mixup bug.  Imitate Autoconf-style logging.
	Log entries no longer discarded by compilation failures.
	(_LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG, _LT_AC_LANG_CXX_CONFIG,
	_LT_AC_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG): Tuned settings of
	lt_simple_compile_test_code and lt_simple_link_test_code
	to avoid warnings that could break some option detections.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_NO_RTTI): Removed
	redundant "-c conftest.$ac_ext" in the argument to
	AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Replaced C-specific conftest
	source code with $lt_simple_compile_test_code, to support
	the "-lc" test with other languages.

2002-11-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	Don't assume that egrep and fgrep exist.  POSIX 1003.1-2001 no
	longer requires them; you're supposed to use grep -E and grep -F
	instead.  Also, don't assume that "test -a" works, since POSIX
	doesn't require it.

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER, _LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG,
	_LT_AC_LANG_CXX_CONFIG, AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE,
	AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS):
	egrep -> grep, when that makes no difference.
	* libtoolize.in: Likewise.
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_SYMBOL_USCORE): Likewise.
	* ltmain.in: Likewise.
	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Likewise.
	* pdemo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Likewise.
	* tests/build-relink.test, tests/build-relink2.test,
	tests/cdemo-conf.test, tests/cdemo-shared.test,
	tests/cdemo-static.test, tests/demo-conf.test,
	tests/demo-nofast.test, tests/demo-shared.test,

	tests/mdemo-static.test, tests/pdemo-conf.test,
	tests/tagdemo-conf.test, tests/tagdemo-shared.test,
	tests/tagdemo-static.test: Likewise.

	* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_EGREP):
	New macro, defined if Autoconf doesn't define.
	(AC_PATH_TOOL_PREFIX, AC_PROG_LD_GNU): Use it.
	(AC_PROG_LD, AC_PROG_NM, AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE):
	Use shell pattern matching rather than egrep.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Set lt_EGREP and EGREP.

	* demo/Makefile.am (SET_HARDCODE_FLAGS): Use sed instead of egrep.
	* pdemo/Makefile.am (SET_HARDCODE_FLAGS): Likewise.

	* tests/defs (EGREP, FGREP): New vars.

	* ltmain.in: egrep -> $EGREP
	* tests/assign.test, tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test,
	tests/pdemo-exec.test, tests/pdemo-inst.test, tests/sh.test:
	Likewise.

	* tests/hardcode.test: fgrep -> $FGREP

	* tests/f77demo-exec.test: test -a -> test &&

2002-11-18  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* ltmain.in: When using gcc, pass -mfoo to the linker
	via $compiler_flags in order to pass architecture information to
	the linker (e.g. 32 vs 64-bit). This may also be accomplished via
	-Wl,-mfoo but this is not reliable with gcc because gcc may use
	-mfoo to select a different linker, different libraries, etc, while
	-Wl,-mfoo simply passes -mfoo to the linker. If there is a better
	solution, please let me know what it is.

2002-11-18  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* tests/Makefile.am: Conditional assignment of FFLAGS = @FFLAGS@
	does not appear to be necessary given that Automake makes this
	assignment by default.  The condition is removed since Automake
	1.7.1 complains about it.

2002-11-18  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* libtool.m4: Support linking of 64-bit libraries on
	sparc{,v[789]}-*linux*, s390*-*linux*, ppc*-*linux*
	GNU/Linux systems when the platform default is to build
	32-bit libraries.

2002-11-18  Andreas Jaeger  <aj@suse.de>, Bo Thorsen  <bo@suse.de>

	* libtool.m4: Support linking of 32-bit libraries with ld
	on the x86-64, ppc64, s390x and sparc64 GNU/Linux systems.

2002-11-18  Akim Demaille  <akim@epita.fr>

	* ltmain.in: Do not change the PATH in the wrappers: let them
	launch the real binary using its path.

2002-11-18  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Library tips): Note array dimensions.

2002-11-18  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* tests/*.test: MinGW's MSYS treats files under /dev
	specially. This causes 'test -r /dev/null/config/site' to
	improperly report success, causing configure to fail. Change the
	CONFIG_SITE definition from "/dev/null/config/site" to
	"/nonexistent" to avoid this problem.

2002-11-18  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LOCK): remove support for ancient
	versions of mingw and cygwin.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_POSTDEP_PREDEP): new function.
	moved the "find hidden library dependencies" code here
	from AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG.  Attempted to make it
	multi-tag compatible, but currently only CXX calls it.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): set
	enable_shared_with_satic_runtimes to 'no' by default
	Set it to 'yes' for cygwin, mingw, pw32. Replace
	"find hidden library dependencies" code with a call
	to the new function AC_LIBTOOL_POSTDEP_PREDEP.
	Consolidate cygwin and mingw/pw32 stanzas.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_F77_CONFIG): set
	enable_shared_with_static_runtimes to 'no' by default
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): add
	enable_shared_with_static_runtimes to the list of variables
	to write into ltmain.sh; include it in the libtool script
	template as allow_libtool_libs_with_static_runtimes.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): set
	enable_shared_with_static_runtimes to 'no' by default
	Set it to 'yes' for cygwin, mingw, pw32.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE): only put cr in regexp
	if the build_os is mingw, not host_os

	* ltmain.in (case deplibs_check_method): for all appropriate
	cases, if allow_libtool_libs_with_static_runtimes, then remove
	predeps and postdeps from the list of dependencies that must
	be checked for "dynamicness".  For the "none" case, the
	presence of compiler-generated postdeps and predeps should
	not trigger "inter-library dependencies not supported" error.
	(initial setup after arg processing): on cygwin/mingw, allow
	compiler-generated dependent libs to be duplicated without
	elimination.
	(initial search loop for deplibs): if the deplib in question
	is a libtool lib, then if
	allow_libtool_libs_with_static_runtimes then parse the .la file.
	If the .la file only has an "old_library", add the deplib
	directly to the deplibs list (-lstdc++) and DON'T use the .la
	file; this allows the (case deplibs_check_method) change above
	to take effect.
	* ltmain.in (for pass in $passes loop): remove predeps,
	postdeps, and compiler_lib_search_path from dependency_libs.

2002-11-08  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi: Add --mode=* to every example using libtool.

2002-11-03  Ossama Othman  <ossama@doc.ece.uci.edu>

	* ltmain.in: add support for installing into temporary
	staging area (e.g. 'make install DESTDIR=...')

2002-11-03  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): restore setting
	allow_undefined_flag=unsupported for cygwin and mingw.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): ditto, for both "normal" gcc/ld
	and for the (unmaintained?) MSVC case.

2002-11-03  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Install mode): document new
	-inst-prefix option.

2002-11-02  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Print a warning if the mode is not specified.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Document the change that the mode must be
	specified.

2002-10-30  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O): use printf, not
	echo. (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): use new shell function
	win32_libid on w32 platforms
	* ltmain.in: add new section for shell functions. Add
	win32_libid() shell function.
	* f77demo/Makefile.am: add -no-undefined flag

2002-10-30  Rob Browning  <rlb@defaultvalue.org>

	* ltdl.c (realloc): Remove custom realloc. (#define
	rpl_realloc realloc) and comment out later code for custom
	realloc. You can't define your own malloc unless you know
	enough about the malloc in use to be able to tell how big
	the src ptr is. The disabled code incorrectly used the
	*destination* ptr to decide how much to copy. This
	sometimes results in out-of-bound accesses which cause
	segfaults. This is a quick hack for now; we may want
	something cleaner later.
	(tryall_dlopen_module): check to be sure (dirname_len > 0) before
	testing first character against '/'.
	(try_dlopen): check for feof(file) in read loop -- otherwise
	infinite loop?

2002-10-25  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (-XCClinker): New flag passes a linking option
	directly to the compiler driver without appending ${wl}.

2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* README-alpha: Add some release note templates for inspiration
	and consistency at release time.

	* Makefile.am (cvs-diff): Compress the generated diff file, ready
	for upload to ftp.gnu.org.

2002-10-25  Howard Chu  <hyc@highlandsun.com>

	* ltmain.in [aix]: Be sure to deal with xlc_r, cc_r and other
	compiler variants.

2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_FILE_IMPGEN_C): Removed.  No longer used.
	(_LT_AC_FILE_LTDLL_C): Ditto.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG) [cygwin, mingw, pw32, os2]: Don't call
	_LT_AC_FILE_LTDLL_C or _LT_AC_FILE_IMPGEN_C.

2002-10-25  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: When LDFLAGS="-Wl,-brtl,[other options]", the
	-brtl special-case code for AIX never gets triggered because
	were are being too specific about how we search for -brtl.
	Use case statement to avoid this. Remove extraneous
	semicolon.
	* ltmain.in: Recognize the IBM xlc compiler.

2002-10-24  Andrew Suffield  <asuffield@debian.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): Corrected sense of "file not
	found" check.

2002-10-24  Ossama Othman  <ossama@doc.ece.uci.edu>

	* ltmain.in: Support compiler names matching g++*

2002-10-23  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* libtool.m4: Removed old Windows cruft.
	* libtool.m4: Adapted pw32 to be like Cygwin/MinGW.

2002-10-23  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	ltmain.in: Do not add 1 to the version under IRIX, it is
	not necessary.

2002-10-15  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): avoid long delay on
	 cygwin/Win9x when computing commandline length.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): fix postinstall_cmds when
	sources are in a subdirectory
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_SYSSEARCHPATH): use $PATH_SEPARATOR, not
	$ac_path_separator
	* configure.ac: move depdemo-specific stuff.  You must configure
	libtool before you can try './libtool --features'.
	* mdemo-inst.test: set $PATH to include the directory in which
	the modules are installed (on cygwin, DLL search path is the
	$PATH)

2002-10-15  Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* ltmain.in: MinGW works identically to Cygwin.
	* libtool.m4: lt_cv_sys_max_cmd_len hard-coded to 8192
	*  Model MinGW configuration after Cygwin configuration.
	Some portions share implementation.

2002-10-15  Elizabeth Barham <soggytrousers@yahoo.com>

	* libtool.m4: Pattern MinGW library naming after that
	used by Cygwin except use 'lib' prefix rather than 'cyg'.
	* Transfer some configuration from Cygwin with adjustments
	for MinGW.

2002-10-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: When a module is built for AIX, the 'lib'
	prefix isn't needed, neither is the version. AIX dlopen
	will honor the RPATH in a library.

2002-10-11  Christoph Egger  <Christoph_Egger@gmx.de>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS, darwin): Add
	-install_name to the link line only when -dynamiclib is
	specified for a module.  Use -bind_at_load when linking C++
	shared libraries.

2002-10-04  Elizabeth Barham  <soggytrousers@yahoo.com>

	create a dll for Windows targets.

2002-09-24  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Fixed a few spelling errors.

2002-09-17  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Commented out access() call that checks for a
	library file's existence and permissions, as it appears to fail
	in every case.

2002-09-09  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Custom $symcode for Tru64 UNIX to catch 'Q',
	read-only constants.

2002-09-09  Rainer Orth  <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.de>

	* libtool.m4 (osf[345]): Append $major to soname_spec.
	Reflect this in library_names_spec.
	* ltmain.in (osf): Prefix $major with '.' for use as extension.

2002-08-28  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* ltdl.m4 & libltdl/ltdl.c: Port fully to native Win32 API.

2002-07-31  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* f77demo/.cvsignore: New file, forgotten in the last commit.

2002-07-31  Eric Lindahl  <erik@theophys.kth.se>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Added support for the new F77
	Fortran support tag.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O, _LT_AC_TAGCONFIG): Support F77 tag.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_F77, _LT_AC_LANG_F77, AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_F77_CONFIG):
	New macros for F77 tag Fortran support.
	* configure.ac: Add support for creating the new F77 tag.

	* f77demo/foof.f, f77demo/foo.h, f77demo/fprogram.f
	* f77demo/Makefile.am, f77demo/README: New files.

2002-07-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): We need to catch missing file
	errors early so that file_not_found() can detect what happened.

2002-06-26  Bob Friesenhahn  <bfreisen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [mingw]: Remove
	extraneous '=' character which appears in gcc 3.1
	-print-search-dirs output.
	Handle both upper and lower case drive letters when testing for
	Windows vs POSIX style path output from -print-search-dirs
	output.

2002-06-24  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (Piecewise linking): Add a clause to skip creating
	the export file until the reloadable object file(s) have been
	created, then use them as input for $export_symbols_cmds.

2002-06-23  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_SYS_DLOPEN_DEPLIBS): Need to quote [ and ] for
	Autoconf.

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_SYS_DLOPEN_DEPLIBS): HP/UX needs
	libltdl_cv_sys_dlopen_deplibs set to yes.

2002-06-23  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _LT_AC_LOCK): Use
	AC_PROVIDE_IFELSE to test AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL and
	AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, necessary for autoconf 2.53.

2002-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (argz_insert): Actually, BEFORE can be NULL
	when *PARGZ_LEN is non-NULL, so the assertion to the contrary was
	bogus.
	Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <bfreisen@simple.dallas.tx.us>
	and Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>

2002-06-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (foreach_dirinpath): Ensure that filename is '\0'
	terminated by all code paths.
	Reported by Lutz Müller <lutz@users.sourceforge.net>

2002-06-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>:
	* doc/libtool.texi (Platform quirks): s/dependan/dependen/

	* TODO: Ditto.

2002-06-13  Rainer Orth  <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE>

	* ltmain.in (irix, nonstopux): Set major before use.

2002-06-11  Daniel Kobras  <kobras@linux.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (try_dlopen): Don't return bogus handle to user
	  if tryall_dlopen() fails.

2002-06-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* tests/pdemo-exec.test: Typo.  s/hell-static/hell_static/

2002-05-31  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* NEWS: Updated.
	* libtool.m4: use $NM to create the symbol list on cygwin, not
	$ltdll_cmds as on mingw.  For all tags, (and host=cygwin) set
	allow_undefined_flag="" so that the --auto-import magic
	works properly.  For all tags (and host=cygiwn) set
	always_export_symbols=no -- it is unnecessary thanks to
	binutils' auto-export magic.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Don't force cygwin to use the LoadLibrary
	wrapper; use cygwin's builtin implementatino of dl*.
	* cdemo/Makefile.am: the downside of unsetting
	'allow_undefined_flag' -- we must include -no-undefined
	in the _la_LDFLAGS variable.
	* depdemo/l1/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* depdemo/l2/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* depdemo/l3/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* depdemo/l4/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* tagdemo/Makefile.am: ditto.
	* demo/Makefile.am: ditto.  But also, we must make special
	provision to clean up the hell0 wrapper script.
	* pdemo/Makefile.am: ditto -no-undefined.  ditto hell0.
	And use 'hell_static' instead of 'hell.static'.
	* tests/pdemo-inst.test: use 'hell_static' instead
	of 'hell.static'.
	* tests/pdemo-exec.test: ditto.

2002-05-30  Charles Wilson  <cwilson@ece.gatech.edu>

	* tests/build-relink2.test: look for installed libl3.la
	in $prefix/lib/ as well as $prefix/lib/extra/.

2002-05-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* tests/hardcode.test: Use libtool --config to collect the
	variable values for the test, otherwise the tag values interfere
	with a straight grep.

2002-05-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Finally fix the annoying bug which always adds all tags to the
	libtool script built by your project configure.  Now we set the
	default tags depending on whether AC_PROG_CXX et. al. are actually
	called from configure.ac.

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_TAGCONFIG): Don't default the tagnames when
	no --with-tags argument is given.
	(_LT_AC_SHELL_INIT): Factored out from the AC_DIVERT_PUSH code
	in...
	(_LT_AC_PROG_ECHO_BACKSLASH): ...which now calls the macro
	instead.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_CXX): Use _LT_AC_SHELL_INIT to add CXX to the
	initialisation sequence for tagnames.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_GCJ): Similarly for GCJ tag.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_RC): Likewise for RC tag.

2002-05-21  Jon Meredith  <jonm@alchemetrics.co.uk>

	* ltmain.in: Fix a problem on SCO OpenServer5 that caused a
	failure in three depdemo-make tests. For some reason the linker
	tries to find the dependent libraries using the library search
	path before it has read the libraries specified with absolute
	paths in the full commandline. This patch add -L's for each of
	the dependent library directories so that they can be resolved.

2002-05-09  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	* libtool.m4: Update support for NetBSD
	* ltdl.m4: Make sure that libltdl_cv_func_dlopen and
	libltdl_cv_lib_dl_dlopen are set and used instead of the
	ac_cv_ versions. Also, use lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe
	instread of global_symbol_pipe. This fixes the detection of
	dlopen on BSD derived plaforms and more importantly fixes
	need_uscore detection.

2002-05-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): head -1 -> sed 1q to
	port to POSIX 1003.1-2001 hosts, like textutils 2.0.21 with
	_POSIX2_VERSION=200112.

2002-05-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* ltmain.in: Don't assume that "sort +2" works, as POSIX
	1003.1-2001 says that "sort +2" is supposed to sort the file
	named "+2".  An example host that behaves like this is
	textutils 2.0.21 with _POSIX2_VERSION=200112.

2002-05-06  Loren James Rittle  <rittle@latour.rsch.comm.mot.com>

	* ltmain.in: Detect and handle object name conflicts while
	piecewise linking a static library.

2002-05-02  Dave Vasilevsky  <thevas@mac.com>

	* ltmain.in: Remove convenience libraries from deplibs for Darwin.

2002-05-02  Fritz Elfert  <felfert@to.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Modify archive_expsym_cmds
	to catch properly handle dll alias symbols.

2002-04-24  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Use $build_os not $host_os.

2002-04-14  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi (C++ libraries): Finally updated to reflect
	Libtool's support for C++.

2002-04-14  Jean-Frederic Clere  <jfrederic.clere@fujitsu-siemens.com>

	* libtool.m4: Update support for Fujistu-Siemens Computers (FSC).
	* ltmain.in: Add support for EBCDIC based systems.

2002-04-07  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): Refactor, removing temporary directory
	and consistent use of the shell variable namespace "lt_ac_".

2002-04-02  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Finish the tag matching logic started yesterday and
	refactor it a bit.

2002-04-01  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Handle the case when no tag is explicitly set, and
	$base_compile has a space in front of $CC, and revert the setting
	of tagname checked in on 2002-3-14.

2002-04-01  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	* tagdemo/foo.cpp: Use C++ IO to catch problems linking to C++
	runtime libraries.
	* tagdemo/main.cpp: Ditto.

2002-03-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* TODO: Removed obsolete comments about RMS' package system.

2002-03-14  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@gnu.org>

	ltmain.in: Touch-up to make testsuite pass, and default tagname
	to CC when it isn't explicitly set.

2002-03-14  Anthony Green  <green@redhat.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O): Albert Chin's gcj fix.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_COMPILER_PIC): Per Bothner's change for not
	using -DPIC with gcj.

2002-03-11  Bruce Korb  <bkorb@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in(compile): bring a touch of order to the option processing

2002-02-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS: Updated.
	* THANKS: Added Rob Collins and Chuck Wilson for their cygwin
	work.

	From Robert Collins  <robert.collins@itdomain.com.au>:

	* libtool.m4 (shlibpath_overrides_runpath) [cygwin]: Set to yes
	when compiling with gcc.
	(lt_prog_compiler_pic) [cygwin]: No longer needs the -DDLL_EXPORT
	hack, so we just say the pic is the default.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [cygwin]: Extract symbols from a
	library normally.
	[cygwin]: Declare C++ compiler characterisics for g++, taking into
	account the new auto-import support in cygwin ld.

	eliminating duplicate -lgcc's from the link line.
	[cygwin]: Be smarter about .exe suffixes.
	* demo/configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):  Support
	DOSish systems properly.
	* depdemo/configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):  Ditto.
	* demo/Makefile.am (deplibs-check): Allow for .exe suffix.  Use
	hell_static instead of hell.static for multi-`.' inhibited OSes.
	* tests/demo-exec.test: Ditto.
	* tests/demo-inst.test: Ditto.
	* demo/foo.h [cygwin]: Sanitize cygwin dll support.
	* demo/foo.c (_LIBFOO_COMPILATION_): No longer required.
	* demo/hello.c (_LIBFOO_COMPILATION_): Ditto.
	* depdemo/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Use depdemo_static instead
	of depdemo.static for multi-`.' inhibited OSes.

2002-02-07  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	Reverted incorrect patch:
	2001-10-24  H.J. Lu  <hjl@gnu.org>
	* ltmain.sh: Allow link against an archive when building a
	shared library.
	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method): Always use
	file_magic for Linux ELF.

2002-01-30  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@ricardo-us.com>

	* libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): Removed a mysterious newline.

2002-01-28  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@ricardo-us.com>

	* libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): New macro tests sed for truncation of
	output.  AC_REQUIRE the new macro.
	* ltmain.in: Use $SED rather than plan old sed, as set by the new
	macro LT_AC_PROG_SED.

2002-01-10  Volker Christian  <voc@soft.uni-linz.ac.at>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_handle_callback): treat the result of a call
	to access(2) correctly when deciding whether a library can be found
	in a directory from user_search_path.

2002-01-07  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@ricardo-us.com>

	* NEWS: Fixed wrong path for texinfo.tex.
	* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.4e.

	GNU libtool 1.4d was released.

	* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.4d.
	* NEWS: updated.
	* config.guess, config.sub, texinfo.tex:  Synchronised from
	ftp.gnu.org.

2001-12-06  Jens Petersen  <petersen@redhat.com>

	* ltmain.in: Replace all test "-a"s by "&& test"
	for portability.

2001-11-28  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@ricardo-us.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Change the
	factor of saftey as 3/4 of the result was not low enough.

2001-11-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtoolize.in: The test for whether AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is defined
	in aclocal.m4 had bitrotted slightly.
	Reported by Takahiko Kawasaki <Takahiko_Kawasaki@cii.csk.co.jp>

2001-11-27  Donald D. Anderson  <dda@sleepycat.com>

	* ltmain.in: Treat freebsd like openbsd, in that -lc/-lc_r should
	not be explicitly used.  ld handles this depending on the presence
	of the -pthread option.

2001-11-27  Robert Boehne  <rboehne@ricardo-us.com>

	With help from Michael Matz <matz@kde.org>:
	* ltmain.in:  Add a new command line argument
	--preserve-dup-deps for preserving duplicate
	dependent libraries.
	* libtool.texi: Document it.

2001-11-27  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Send "test"
	warnings to /dev/null, helps FreeBSD and maybe others.

2001-11-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: quote LTCC because autoconf AC_PROG_CC_STDC
	macro might add to $CC if options needed by compiler to
	grok ANSI.

2001-11-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Joseph S. Myers  <jsm28@cam.ac.uk>:
	* ltmain.in: Typo.

2001-11-15   Mo DeJong  <supermo@bayarea.net>

	* ltmain.in: Place parens around a generated relink_command
	so it is run is a subshell. This avoids an install error
	where libtool ended up in the wrong directory after
	relinking a .la file.

2001-10-31  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* configure.ac (pkgdatadir): Move the invocation of AC_INIT_AUTOMAKE
	before the use of $PACKAGE in $pkgdatadir.
	Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <bfreisen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

2001-10-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in [mips-compaq-nonstopux]: Support
	$version_type == nonstopux.

2001-10-28  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (foreach_dirinpath): change some types to size_t
	from int because strlen() returns size_t. argz_len changed to
	size_t because argzize_path() takes 3rd argument as size_t, not
	int.
	Based on lint run from Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

2001-10-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_TAGCONFIG): Cray sed does not allow character
	sets to contain the separator character.
	Reported by Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_WITH_LTDL): New macro to add `--with-included-ltdl'
	option to configure, but to find an appropriate ltdl library and
	append the right options to link it.

2001-10-24  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Remove a stray ' quote.

2001-10-24  H.J. Lu  <hjl@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.sh: Allow link against an archive when building a
	shared library.
	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method): Always use
	file_magic for Linux ELF.

2001-10-12  Guido Draheim  <guidod-2001q3@gmx.de>

	* ltdl.m4: Changed "underscode to underscore".

2001-10-04  Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Match function return type with prototype
	(add static initializer to file_not_found).

2001-09-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE): s/INCLTDL/LTDLINCL/ for
	consistency with gettext's INTLINCL.  Keep the old symbol too for
	backwards compatibility.
	(AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): Ditto.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Distributing libltdl):  Adjust documentation.

2001-09-22  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_DLLIB): Even though HP-UX 10.20 and 11.00
	support shl_load *and* dlopen, dlopen works correctly only
	with a patch. Because we want to avoid the situation where we
	build on a system with the patch but deploy on a system without,
	use shl_load exclusively if found.

2001-09-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_FILE_LTDLL_C): Be carefule that the start
	marker searched for by sed must start in column 0.
	(_LT_AC_FILE_IMPGEN_C): Ditto.
	Reported by Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

2001-09-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* libtool.m4 [mingw* cygwin*]: Small improvement for mingw-hosted
	tool support (while still running libtool on cygwin). In that case
	PATH_SEPARATOR is ':', but gcc -print-search-dirs still prints its
	search path with ';' as separator.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_RC, AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Add support for .rc
	files (Windows resource files), compiled by the resource compiler
	(windres in mingw) to .o files.
	(AC_PROG_NM): Minor bug fix for $PATH elements with spaces in
	them.
	* configure.ac: Use LT_AC_PROG_RC.
	* ltmain.in: Check for .rc files.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* ltmain.in: Add a space to $base_compile in the case statement,
	as the case labels checks for trailing spaces, but there aren't
	necessarily in $base_compile.

2001-09-22  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: When setting archive_cmds for CC, don't
	test for $GXX but for $GCC on HP-UX. Indentation fixes.

2001-09-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>:
	* ltmain.in [cygwin* mingw*]: Take care of the difference between
	wrapper script name and executable name.

	* libtool.m4 (archive_cmds) [darwin1.[0-2]]: Darwin uses zsh-3.1.6
	for /bin/sh, and that shell does not handle escaped quotes
	properly yet.
	Reported by Christopher Pfisterer <cp@chrisp.de>

2001-09-21  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Match function return type with prototype
	(add static initializer to some functions) to prevent warnings
	from HP-UX cc.

2001-09-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Added support for dmalloc, and uncovered some
	memory bugs as a result.

2001-09-21  Albert Chin  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Don't include main() when testing for command to
	parse $NM output because some C++ compilers don't allow you to
	take the address of main (e.g. HP-UX aCC).

	* libtool.m4: Some uses of $GXX were unquoted, but GXX is either
	NULL or yes.  Use "$GXX".

2001-09-13  Assar Westerlund  <assar@sics.se>

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_DLLIB): call dlopen with arguments so the test
	does not fail due to a prototype in dlfcn.h

2001-09-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Check for assert.h.

	* libtool.m4: No need to undefine([symbols]), proper quotation is
	enough.

2001-09-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4: CVS Autoconf guarantees a decent default IFS, so
	there is no need for us to preset it anymore.
	Be careful not to set IFS="${IFS}$PATH_SEPARATOR" for PATH
	splitting, otherwise spaces in directory names will be lost.
	Use $PATH_SEPARATOR... don't rely on $ac_path_separator, which was
	an autoconf internal until just now, when it disappeared!
	* ltmain.in: Default IFS once, at the start.

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [solaris*]: Typo. s/GXX/GCC/.

	* libtool.m4 (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds) [solaris*]: Changing
	no_undefined_flag from `-z text' to `-z defs' (see entry below at
	2001-04-11  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>) has a problem.
	when linking a shared library with gcc calling /usr/ccs/bin/ld (eg.
	the gcc supplied with Solaris 8 companion CD), using the flag
	-no-undefined, shared library linking will always fail because of
	the unresolved symbols from libgcc.a.  Consequently we have to
	provide a path to libgcc.a when linking shared libraries in
	conjunction with -no-undefined!

	From Michael Pruett <mpruett@engr.sgi.com>:
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): `0' valued arguments to

	* ltdl.c: Include unistd.h if it exists.

	(LTDL_ARCHIVE_EXT): Macro to prevent hardcoding ".la".
	(archive_ext): Have only one copy of ".la" in the readonly
	segment of the compiled library.
	(find_handle_callback): Don't bother trying to dlopen the file if
	it doesn't exist.
	(find_handle): Don't bother searching for files if no search_path
	was supplied.
	(file_not_found): A new function to determine whether the last
	error was due to a file not found condition.
	(try_dlopen): Renamed from lt_dlopen() and changed to have the
	same footprint as tryall_dlopen.  This involved a minor rewrite of
	much of the internals of this function.
	(lt_dlopen): A new function wrapped arounf try_dlopen().
	(lt_dlopenext): If a file already has a suitable extension, don't
	bother adding additional extensions and trying to open those.
	Tidy up the rest of the code to prevent continued searching with
	an eventual FILE_NOT_FOUND when a genuine failure earlier in the
	search process could be legitimately reported.

	* demo/Makefile.am (helldl$(EXEEXT)): Automake-1.5 made me change
	this from just `helldl'.

	double quotes added by libtool (to prevent lossage with embedded

	From Michael Elizabeth Chastain <chastain@cygnus.com>:
	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN):  Set max_cmd_len

	(foreach_dirinpath):  Make sure filename is initialised.
	(find_handle):  Return NULL for a failed search.

	* doc/PLATFORMS:  With this patch, my Solaris boxes now pass the
	test suite,  Yay!
	From Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>
	* ltmain.in:  `test -L' is not portable, and infact breaks uninstall

	it is opened later.  Return the cached pointer if the caller
	subsequently tries to open `self'.
	(sys_shl_sym): Diagnose NULL modules.

	From Peter Eisentraut  <peter_e@gmx.net>
	* ltmain.in (clean,uninstall): test -e is not portable.  Well,
	neither is -L, but I'm hoping that redirecting error messages
	to /dev/null and relying on non-zero exit status will work okay
	on the few hosts that don't support -L.

2001-04-08  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	postuninstall_cmds to reflect this.
	* ltmain.in: Generate installed .la files with dlnames set to
	../bin/cygFOO-version.dll for normal dlls. dlls for modules
	remain with the .la file.

	don't do it for now.

2000-12-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Oh My! Cygwin support has bitrotted while I was looking the other
	way.  This should fix it some:

	definitions; these variables are set in AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD.

	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_file_magic_cmd): Don't use '${MAGIC_CMD}' or

2000-09-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: Updated.

	* Makefile.am (libtool):  This needs to rerun configure now that
	libtool is generated entirely by AC_PROG_LIBTOOL again.
	(ltconfig): Removed.
	(ltmain.sh):  Is now regenerated when ltmain.in changes.
	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Now does all of the work for

	deferring part of the creation until config.status runs.

	* bootstrap:  Backed out yesterdays patch which is no longer
	necessary.
	* Makefile.am (libtool): Reworked rule for regeneration of libtool,
	now that it is built entirely withing config.status.
	(libtoolize): Tidied for orthogonality with the other generation
	rules.
	(ltconfig):  This is now generated by AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, called from
	make by running config.status --recheck.
	(ltmain.sh): Moved primary generation of this file into here...
	* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): ...instead of here.
	* libtool.m4 (AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS):  Write the config to ltconfig
	where it can be reused, rather than directly to libtool.
	* demo/configure.in:  libtool is no longer present immediately
	after AC_LIBTOOL_M4 has completed, so the tests now grep through
	ltconfig instead -- which *will* be present.

2000-09-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* TODO: Removed the item describing the change below, and added a
	similar item to remind us to change the ltdl.m4 macros again when
	_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK is divided into proper macros.
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_SNARF_CONFIG):  Removed.  No longet required
	now that ltconfig has migrated to libtool.m4.
	(AC_LTDL_SHLIBEXT): Require _LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK.
	(AC_LTDL_SHLIBPATH): ditto.
	(AC_LTDL_SYSSEARCHPATH): ditto.

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_DLPREOPEN): Require the libtool.m4 symbol_pipe
	macro.
	(AC_LTDL_SYMBOL_USCORE): ditto.
	(AC_LTDL_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE): Removed, since it is a duplicate
	of...
	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE): ...this new
	macro, extracted from _LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK.

	* ltdl.m4 (changequote): An audit of changequote and m4
	quote usage -- all changequotes have been removed, and some
	latent unquoted `[' and `]' bugs have been fixed.

	* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): ltmain.sh must be generated in the
	source tree since this is where it would be found in a freshly
	unrolled tarball.

	* configure.in: Replace `dnl' comments with `#' comments for
	more conformity with cvs autoconf.
	Removed emacs hack-local-variables, since there is now a
	proper Autoconf major mode.
	Removed a couple of changequote()s.

	* bootstrap (ltconfig): When bootstrapping libtool with a
	stock automake (i.e. without the README patch applied),
	references to ltconfig are manually removed from the generated
	Makefile.in files.

2000-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi: Removes references to ltconfig, and a small
	amount of tidying up to compensate.

2000-09-15  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	* libtool.m4 (netbsd): Improved support.

2000-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (version_type): Use "-iface" as the windows
	versioning scheme, where iface is the number of the oldest
	interface supported.

2000-09-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Paul Sokolovsky <Paul.Sokolovsky@technologist.com>
	* libtool.m4 (pw32): Initial support for pw32, assuming that
	libtool's behaviour in this environment is identical to under
	cygwin.
	* ltmain.in (pw32): ditto.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libtool.m4 (changequote): An audit of changequote and m4
	quote usage -- all changequotes (except a few with non-nesting
	square brackets) have been removed.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST):  The bootstrap script should be
	distributed with libtool.

2000-09-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Oh man!  Third time lucky.
	I just discovered that '&' needs to be escaped inside
	AC_TRY_EVAL.

2000-09-12  Michael Matz  <matz@ifh.de>

	* ltmain.in:  Be careful about filenames with multiple `.'s in
	them when calculating file extensions.
	Reported by Joel Reed <jreed@support.ddiworld.com>

2000-09-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL):  Removed, as it was triggering a
	bug in Autoconf-2.13 AC_REQUIRE implementation which inserted
	some of the expanded tests too early in the generaated configure.
	(_AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): renamed to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, and defines
	itself to an empty expansion to prevent multiple expansions.
	configure.in (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Replaced by a call to
	AC_PROG_LIBTOOL now that the AC_REQUIRE bug has been worked
	around.

2000-09-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Forgot to escape the
	redirections inside AC_TRY_EVAL in the need_lc tests. Doh!

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Forgot to redirect the
	output of grep to /dev/null in the need_lc tests.

	configure.in (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL):  Using this in libtools own
	configure.in interacts badly with the AC_PROVIDE calls and
	results in several tests being inserted into configure too
	early.  Use AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP instead.

2000-09-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): The ltconfig.in code I
	ported from ltconfig.in was incomplete -- this is a backport
	of the missing code taken from the multi-language branch.

2000-09-07  Pavel Roskin  <proskin@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Fixed incorrect use of
	changequote

2000-09-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS:  Updated.
	* TODO:  Add a reminder to get rid of ltconfig in mlb.
	* README: Until things even out, I have added a note and a
	patch to make the installed automake cooperate with the new
	ltconfig free libtool.

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): with_gcc is only useful in
	ltmain.sh as it has not yet been set in libtool.m4.  Use
	$ac_cv_prog_gcc instead.

	* doc/PLATFORMS: Updated.

	* configure.in (AC_PROG_AWK): Removed -- no longer required by
	the build process.
	* lineno: ditto.

	* libtoolize.in (files): Don't try to install ltconfig -- it
	doesn't exist!!
	* bootstrap: Fake an ltconfig incase the installed automake
	calls an installed libtoolize (as part of its --add-missing
	process) which thinks ltconfig should be there.

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Deleted a vital `;;'
	terminator from a case statement by mistake.

	* Makefile.am (ltmain.sh):  Make this depend on TSDEPS again
	so that the Changelog timestamp is used for ltmain.sh at `make
	dist' time.

2000-09-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	libtool.m4 now contains a version of the code that used to run
	from ltconfig, so that ltmain.sh and then libtool are
	generated at configure time.

	* Makefile.am:  Don't generate ltmain.sh or ltconfig anymore.
	* bootstrap: ltconfig is no more!
	* configure.in: Call AC_PROG_LIBTOOL directly.
	(AC_OUTPUT): Generate tmain.sh.
	* libtool.m4: Don't build an argument list for ltconfig.
	(_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Refactoring of the former contents of
	ltconfig.in to take advantage of the m4 macros from autoconf.
	* ltmain.in: Don't do a version check against ltconfig.
	* tests/assign.test: Remove reference to ltconfig.
	* tests/hardcode.test: ditto.
	* tests/sh.test: ditto.

2000-09-05  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* depdemo/main.c: Support -alt.
	* tests/build-relink2.test: Try it.

	* ltconfig.in: Removed all references to what used to be
	hardcode_into_libs=all.  2000-09-03's patch was wrong.
	* ltmain.in: Likewise.
	* tests/build-relink.test, tests/build-relink2.test: Adjust.
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): Move libsub.la before
	libfoo2.la, so that they're installed in the right order.

2000-09-04  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* tests/dryrun.test: Build libsub.la along with the object files,
	since it is needed by libfoo2.la.

	* mdemo/Makefile.am: Mark only libfoo2 as -no-undefined.
	Explicitly link it with libsub.la.

	* ltconfig.in (need_lc): Preserve allow_undefined_flag.

	* tests/*.test (CONFIG_SITE): Ultrix's /bin/sh fails on
	`. /dev/null'.  Set CONFIG_SITE to /dev/null/config/site, to make
	sure we pick a non-existent file.

	* Makefile.am (libtool, clibtool): Pass CONFIG_SHELL along with
	ECHO down to ltconfig.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, export_dynamic_flag_spec):
	Use ${wl}, not ${wlarc}.

	* ltmain.in (compile, need_lock): Don't create nor remove lock
	files in dry runs.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (load_deplibs): Don't append shlib_ext; use
	lt_dlopenext() instead.

	* ltmain.in (link -static): Don't add $link_static_flag; only
	-all-static should do that.
	* mdemo/configure.in: Revert part of the previous delta.

	* mdemo/configure.in: Don't use -static on AIX4.1.
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: Likewise.

2000-09-03  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Get rid of hardcode_into_libs=all; use
	hardcode_into_libs=yes && shlibpath_overrides_runpath!=yes
	instead.
	[FreeBSD 3.[01]] (shlibpath_overrides_runpath): Set to no.
	* ltmain.in: Likewise.
	* tests/build-relink.test, tests/build-relink2.test: Adjust.

	* libtool.m4: Fix typo I introduced in yesterday's patch.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): Set dlname from library_names if
	dlname is empty.

	* ltdl.m4 (HAVE_LIBDL): Look for dlopen in -lsvld.
	* ltconfig.in: Likewise.

	* tests/mdemo-exec.test: Modify failure message.

	* ltmain.in (newdlprefiles): Use dlname if it's available and
	old_library isn't; use linklib only if dlname is not available.

	* ltconfig.in (enable_dlopen): Set to no when lt_cv_dlopen is no.

	* libtool.m4: Don't quote CONFIG_SHELL nor ORIGINAL_CONFIG_SHELL.
	Quote $@ properly so that the shell expands it, not m4.

	* libtool.m4: Don't quote SHELL when `re-exec'ing, so that SHELL
	can be `/path/to/shell -x'.

	* tests/quote.test: Move the match test out of case statements, to
	work around bug in /bin/sh of several OSs.

	* ltmain.in (variables_saved_for_relink): Attempt to unset them
	instead of setting them to an empty string.

2000-09-02  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltconfig.in [with_gnu_ld] (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds)
	<solaris*, sysv5*, beos*>: Use compiler_flags instead of linker
	flags.
	Reported by Alex Hornby <alex@anvil.co.uk>

2000-09-02  Makoto Ishisone  <ishisone@sra.co.jp>

	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method, freebsd): Fix typo,
	add support for compact format library.

2000-09-02  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltdl.m4: Oops, I had forgotten to commit this part of Syd Polk's
	patch from 2000-06-17.

2000-09-02  Tom Kacvinsky  <tjk@ams.org>, Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu>

	* libtool.m4: Ignore Tru64's nm's complaint.

2000-09-02  Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: only load $cache_file if it's a regular file

2000-09-02  Assar Westerlund  <assar@sics.se>

	* ltconfig.in: Add back ranlib calls for static libraries if there
	is a ranlib.

2000-08-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Move the echo detection code to a macro in libtool.m4.  The code
	at the top ofltconfig.in is ugly, but will go away when the rest
	of ltconfig is migrated.

	* Makefile.am (libtool):  Pass the value of $ECHO to ltconfig as
	an environment variable.
	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_PROG_ECHO_BACKSLASH): Quote the ECHO value
	correctly so that it inserts the correct code into configure.in
	suitably quoted for M4 expansion.  This code needs to be near
	the top of configure.in as it calls itself recursively, so I
	am using AC_DIVERSION_NOTICE (or simply NOTICE on CVS
	Autoconf).  The value of ECHO is also substitued into the
	Makefile to be used when Make calls ltconfig to generate
	libtool, so another layer of quotation is required for the
	Makefile.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP):  Use it.
	* ltconfig.in: Accept a value for ECHO from the environment, and
	carefully substitue for $0 if it is present in the ECHO value.
	Because ECHO was quoted for Make, when ltconfig is called by
	configure, it is overquoted, and one layer of quotes must be
	stripped.

2000-08-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (with_gcc):  Make the value of this option
	available to the generated libtool script.
	* ltmain.in (compile_command, finalize_command):  The native C
	and C++ compilers on IRIX require the -LANG:std in order to to
	compile correctly.   The same options should _not_ be passed
	through to gcc on IRIX, or at all on other architectures for
	backwards compatibility (among others).

2000-08-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (old_reload_flag): typo.

2000-08-01  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@lsd.ic.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (shtool): Use echo|grep instead of expr, as in the
	original patch.

2000-08-01  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

2000-07-18  H.J. Lu  <hjl@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: Check if -lc is necessary for building shared
	library. Set build_libtool_need_lc to indicate it.

	necessary.

	* ltconfig.in (wlarc, netbsd, aout): Set to empty.
	(hardcode_dynamic_flag_spec, export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use it.

	* ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker, linux, powerpc): Do not disable
	shared libraries just because of MkLinux.

	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method, freebsd): Do not depend
	on $version_type; check for ELF support as in other BSDs.

2000-06-17  Syd Polk  <spolk@redhat.com>

	* ltconfig.in (ORIGINAL_CONFIG_SHELL): Prevent lossage when

1999-10-28  Stephane Conversy  <Stephane.Conversy@lri.fr>

	* ltmain.in (-DPIC):  changed the order of pic flags a little to

        Reported by Sascha Schumann <sascha@schumann.cx>

1999-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (-no-install):  This doesn't work on win32 since
	the search path for libraries is not encoded in the binary,
	and dlls not in $PATH won't be found.  Fall back to -no-fast-install
	instead.

	* ltmain.in (-no-fast-install):  Wrapper script used to add the
	exeext on again when naming the wrapped executable.

	given regex.
	(AC_PATH_PROG_GREP_VERSION):  New macro used by the above.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Use the new macros to search the PATH

1999-09-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (whole-archive-flag-spec):  I had been
	wondering why my file system was filling up with empty
	files named `71'... seems I forgot to hold in the
	shift key when redirecting stderr, 2>&1.  Doh!

1999-09-29  Vadim  <vadim@olly.ru>

	the old `-Wl,--dll -nostartfiles' on cygwin.

1999-07-24  Erez Zadok  <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* doc/PLATFORMS (i*86-*openbsd2.5):  New platform.

	use that to build impgen so we can use it when cross-compiling.
	use correct entry points for mingw so static C++ constructors get
	called for code in the DLL.
	* ltmain.in (impgen.c): define O_BINARY to 0 if it is not in the

	linux as discussed on the bsdi mailing list.

1999-07-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	ltconfig.
	(AC_PROG_RANLIB): replaced with AC_CHECK_TOOL.

	actual list addresses for announcements, and urls for upload
	locations.

1999-07-03  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.3b passes all tests on cygwin

1999-07-03  Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

	* ltconfig.in: finish_cmds for FreeBSD removed
	* depdemo/l3/Makefile.am: install libl3.la into an extra directory

1999-07-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: bumped version to 1.3c.

	GNU libtool 1.3b was released.

	* NEWS: inserted todays date.

1999-07-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

1999-07-01  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* NEWS: updated
	* doc/PLATFORMS: updated
	* changed my email address

1999-06-30  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* demo/foo.h: use LT_PARAMS instead of LTDL_PARAMS (this is not libltdl)
	* tests/build-relink.test: also check for hardcode_into_libs = yes,
	  if set, we need to relink at install-time

1999-06-29  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* NEWS: mention -no-fast-install, rename dummy to force
	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.3b passes all tests on GNU/Linux,
	  FreeBSD (2.2.6 and 3.1)
	* doc/libtool.texi: it's possible to link libtool libraries
	  using -L and -l, better documentation of uninstall and clean mode,
	  rename dummy to force, documented -no-fast-install,
	  AC_LIBLTDL_* must be called before AC_PROG_LIBTOOL,
	  documented hardcode_into_libs and striplib/old_striplib,
	* ltconfig.in: search for strip program, added hardcode_into_libs
	  and striplib/old_striplib variables, set strip commands for GNU strip,
	  on FreeBSD >= 3.2 set hardcode_into_libs to yes,
	  fast-install mode doesn't work if hardcode_into_libs = yes
	* ltmain.in: reimplemented hardcoding into libraries:
	  new relink mode, preserve all libtool args, relink libraries
	  when installing if necessary
	  added -no-fast-install flag, removed unnecessary `dlname'
	  initialization, use striplib/old_striplib for stripping libraries,
	  dlname is always soname or in library_names so we don't need
	  to handle different file names

1999-06-29  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd*, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): Set to yes
	up to release 3.1, and to no from 3.2 on.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-29  Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>, Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	yes; tested on 3.1-ELF by Pavel and on 2.2.6 by Alexandre.

1999-06-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): Use pass_all on
	alpha, x86 and sparc architectures by now, reverting to file_magic
	at least on ARM, where it breaks.

1999-06-23  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* NEWS: updated
	* README: added GNU Hurd to the supported platforms
	* doc/libtool.texi: document `-dlpreopen dummy'
	  instead of `-dlopen dummy'
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strchr): fixed typo (missing star)

1999-06-23  Stephan Kulow <coolo@itm.mu-luebeck.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strrchr): fixed typo (missing star)
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (trim): use `const' to silence -Wwrite-strings

1999-06-23  Olly Betts  <olly@muscat.co.uk>

	* ltmain.in (ltdll.c): Support for crosscompiling from linux to
	mingw32.

1999-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, export_symbols_cmds): If there is already
	an extracted and compiled ltdll.c, then don't delete, reextract
	and recompile.
	(cygwin, archive_expsym_cmds): Make sure the ltdll source has been
	extracted and compiled before referencing the object, since there
	are paths through the code which run archive_expsym_cmds without
	running export_symbols_cmds.

1999-06-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in:  moved the test for NM after the test for
	no_builtin_flag.

1999-06-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: Use sed '$q' instead of sed "" for copying ltmain,
	just in case some sed does not support an empty command.

	* ltconfig.in (link_static_flag, ac_cv_prog_cc_static): Use the
	latter in the test.

1999-06-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltconfig.in (bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): use a less restrictive
	  regex (reported by Chris P. Ross <cross@eng.us.uu.net>)
	* ltmain.in: support `-dlopen dummy', define lt_preloaded_symbols
	  if dlself != no
	* doc/libtool.texi (Compile and Link mode): document it,
	  documented the -Wc, -Wl flags, libtool does also support non C
	  source code

1999-06-18  Teun Burgers  <burgers@ecn.nl>

	* ltconfig.in: CR/LF fix for broken DJGPP bash
	* ltmain.in: CR/LF fix for DJGPP

1999-06-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (outputname): When generating the executable wrapper
	script, $outputname already has the $exeext suffix, so we needn't
	add it again.

1999-06-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.in (ac_cv_lib_dl_dlopen): missing "x" in test
	comparison corrected.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_open): libltdl expects this function to
	fail if it is unable to physically load the library.  Sadly,
	LoadLibrary will search the loaded libraries for a match and
	return one of them if the path search load fails.  Simulate a
	failure in this case for compatibility with the other APIs.
	Also, LoadLibrary takes the liberty of adding `.dll' to library
	names passed without an extension, we now add a trailing `.' to
	prevent this from happening.

1999-06-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_close): Strangely enough, Microsoft have
	decided that LoadLibrary returns `0' for success, yet FreeLibrary
	returns `0' for failure!  The FreeLibrary call used to interpret
	`0' as success for both functions.

1999-06-14 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltconfig.in: use eval when setting have_dlfcn_h, reformatting

1999-06-12 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltmain.in: store old archives in deplibs and old_deplibs,
	  retain the order of dependency libraries (even old archives),
	  determining the absolute directory name didn't work due to a typo,
	  add the library search paths of all dependency libraries when
	  linking a library (fixes IRIX 5.2 bug)

1999-06-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: Reverted June 6's patch for new GNU ld output, it
	is no longer needed, as ld reverted to the original format.
	* NEWS: Likewise.

	* ltconfig.in: When testing self-dlopening, test whether dlclose
	crashes.  On FreeBSD 3.1, it does.  :-(
	* libltdl/configure.in: Likewise.
	* NEWS: Note work-around.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (exeext): autoconf's AC_EXEEXT uses "no" to indicate
	no extension, and we must do the same in order to share the cache
	value. Also we must ignore conftest.err which HPsUX (at least)
	fills with gratuitous warnings.
	(objext): for consistency, do the same as above.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-09  Pavel Roskin  <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

	* ltconfig.in (exeext): Use quotes in the test, to prevent a
	failure in sh.test.

1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: Reordered tests to be more like configure.in's
	recommended order (programs first, then libraries, etc.).
	Performed a manual ``constant folding pass'' (eg: s/eval "test
	\"echo '$''{'lt_cv_dlopen'+set}'`\" != set/test
	"${lt_cv_dlopen+set}" != set/).
	s/test "${foo+set}" = "set"/test "X${foo+set}" = Xset/g

	* ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Accept, in order of decreasing
	preference: the cached value; the default value for the current
	host.  Also test that the compiler accepts the flag, and cache
	that result too.

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Accept, in order of decreasing
	preference:  the cached value; the default value for the current
	host.  Also test that the compiler accepts the flag, and cache
	that result too.

1999-06-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (LN_S): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; an environment setting; ``ln -s'' if it works;
	``ln'' if ``ln -s'' doesn't appear to work.

	* ltconfig.in (objext): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; the result of a test object compilation.

	* ltconfig.in (RANLIB): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; an environment setting; the first file called
	``ranlib'' in the user's path.

	* ltmain.in (exeext): Use $exeext when working out the names of
	programs (but not the wrapper script itself due to a stupidity in
	win32 which hardwires the .exe extension to the binary loader!).
	* ltconfig.in (exeext): Now that the wrapper script tries to move
	executables, we need to know whether they have an extension (ala
	AC_EXEEXT).  Since we can't rely on AC_EXEEXT having been called
	in configure.in, we must be able to check for ourselves, though we
	can look for a cached result incase AC_EXEEXT was called.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, pic_flag):  Force separate compilation of
	objects for dlls vs. objects for static archives.  Using a cpp
	macro also allows us to decide whether or not we need to use
	dllexport/import declarations.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, need_version): Set to no, otherwise module
	dll's end up with mighty long names!

1999-06-06  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* TODO: Recommend libtool.m4 to be inserted in acinclude.m4. AIX
	4.3.2.0 no longer fails on static dlopening.  GNU DLD no longer

	in preparation for the next release.

1999-05-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	knows it has to unpack convenience archives by itself.

1999-05-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	object files extracted from convenience library.

	* ltconfig.in (compiler_c_o): Make sure the compiler does not
	create temporaries in the current directory when output should go

	make sure 1.3 won't be released unless it passes all tests on
	those platforms.

	* doc/libtool.texi (Compile mode): Document potential problem and
	work-around for `-c -o dir/foo.lo'.

	* tests/dryrun.test: The constant modifications of libtool would
	cause main.o to be updated at the wrong time; the new approach is
	to modify the libtool script so that it enables dry run depending
	on whether an environment variable is set or not.  I've also moved
	`after' and `before' to a directory deep within $objdir, instead
	of creating it in ../tests.
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Removed.

1999-04-06  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* tests/dryrun.test: We cannot rely on setting LIBTOOL, because
	automake may use sub-makes, and the setting will not be propagated
	to them on some makes.  Instead, create a dry version of libtool
	and switch between it and the original one before and after dry
	runs.
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added libtool-*, created by
	dryrun.test.

	* tests/dryrun.test: Use cmp instead of diff.
	(before, after): Create them within ../tests.
	(libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
	SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available.  For dry
	runs, use "$libtool -n".
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added before and after.
	* ltmain.in: Do not create links to object files in dry runs.

1999-04-06 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: added a missing line of the ILD patch

	* NEWS: improved DJGPP support
	* doc/libtool.texi: removed hardcode_into_libs documentation
	* libtool.m4: some DJGPP fixes
	* ltconfig.in: ditto, reverted one of my previous patches: we need
	  to check for NM, removed the hardcode_into_libs support since
	  no platform seems to support it
	* ltmain.in: some DJGPP fixes, removed the hardcode_into_libs support

1999-04-05  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (netbsd*, GNU ld): Support a.out shared libraries

	* Makefile.am (CVS): allow command-line overriding of cvs

	* ltconfig.in (exclude_expsyms): Exclude _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ by
	default, as most a.out platforms use it, and end up in trouble if
	we preload it, so it's safer to rule it out by default, and
	special case its removal from exclude_expsyms if someone ever
	complains.

1999-04-05 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order,
	  documented dryrun.test and depdemo*
	* ltmain.in (lt_preloaded_symbols): dry-run mode bugfix
	* tests/dryrun.test: new test to check whether the dry-run
	  mode works properly

	* demo/run.test: removed the unnecessary test
	* demo/Makefile.am: ditto
	* ltmain.in: set the DLL search path on cygwin,mingw and os2

1999-04-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): -Bstatic is not enough for
	deplibs.test to work with GNU ld; -Bshareable is needed here.

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): Disable shared libs with
	native ld too.

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): Reordered.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): Revert to -Bstatic; the
	native linker doesn't even support -Bshareable, only GNU ld does.
	Do not use `gcc -shared' in archive_cmds, it breaks deplibs.test.

	* ltconfig.in: if ld_shlibs=no, set can_build_shared=no too,
	otherwise it will just be disregarded.  This would cause
	netbsd/m68k with GNU ld a.out, and certainly many other platforms,
	to incorrectly believe that shared libraries were supported, while
	archive_cmds was empty, causing shared libraries not to be created

1999-04-03  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* NEWS: improved support for AIX and HP/UX

1999-04-03 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: updated
	* libtool.m4: check for main in libm instead of cos
	* ltmain.in: cosmetic fixes, don't try to link libraries only once
	  (although it's not necessary on many platforms and looks ugly...),

1999-04-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (convenience): fixed race condition when more than one
	library was linked with the same convenience library by
	uniquifying the extract directory.  It is now named after the new
	library *and* the old one, and lives in the objdir of the new one.

	* ltmain.in (-L*): do not abort just because a directory specified
	with -L does not exist; just warn and discard it

	* depdemo/l1/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): no-dependencies
	* depdemo/l2/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
	* depdemo/l3/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
	* depdemo/l4/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): where we used -Bstatic, we
	should have been using -Bshareable

	* demo/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): clean EXTRA_* from deplibs-check

	* libtool.m4 (LDFLAGS, LIBS): pass them to ltconfig, for the tests
	that involve linking
	* Makefile.am (LDFLAGS, LIBS, libtool, clibtool): ditto
	* tests/Makefile.am (CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS): set
	(LDFLAGS, LIBS, TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): pass them down

1999-04-02  Erez Zadok  <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.2f ok on various versions of hpux cc

1999-04-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (link_all_deplibs): set to unknown by default
	* ltmain.in: test != no, not = yes
	* doc/libtool.texi: document unknown

1999-04-01 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: documented deplibs.test

	* demo/Makefile.am: moved testsuite specific declarations to the end,
	  the deplibs check is now optional
	* libltdl/configure.in: read libtool --config only once,
	  merged AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE from libtool.m4
	* libtool.m4: AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE were not
	  used, lt_dlopen and silent may be empty, AC_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN
	  no longer necessary
	* ltconfig.in: NM is already checked in libtool.m4,
	* ltmain.in: always link all static dependency_libs
	* tests/Makefile.am: added deplibs.test
	* tests/demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test: removed hell0
	* tests/deplibs.test: new test to test the deplibs_check_method

1999-03-31 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: always link a library before its dependency libs
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: test -export-symbols-regex

1999-03-30 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: fixed a typo
	* libtoolize.in: add the libtool scripts to libltdl.tar.gz
	* libtool.m4: don't AC_SUBST(USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE),
	  AC_CHECK_LIBM sets LIBM, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE doesn't work
	  when libltdl is already installed
	* *demo/Makefile.am: use LIBM
	* *demo/configure.in: AC_SUBST LIBM
	* libltdl/configure.in: use ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore instead of
	  USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE
	* ltconfig.in: added link_all_deplibs variable
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it
	* ltmain.in: always search for libname.la - don't eval libname_spec,
	  when linking libraries against static ones just print a warning
	  and add them to dependency_libs, add -lc before deplibs,
	  always link all dependencies of a static library or if
	  link_all_deplibs is yes, hardcode library paths if
	  hardcode_into_libs is no, don't link against dependency_libs
	  that already are deplibs

1999-03-30  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*, collect2name): make sure collect2 exists
	before running string on it, to avoid errors on old gccs
	Reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): unless we're
	using gcc with old collect2, use -b libpath to hardcode the
	library search path

	* ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: reverted most of the quoting changes
	from 1999-03-25; Gary's delay_variable_subst patch from 1999-02-19
	obviates it.  Keep only quoting of $PATH, for uniformity with
	other systems that already did it

1999-03-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dladdsearchdir): Forgot to mallocate the
	extra byte of memory for the teminating NUL, and forgot to
	strcpy the original path in to the new memory before appending
	the new path compononent.

1999-03-27 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: updated
	* README: updated (BeOS support, no longer shared libraries
	  support for AmigaOS), cleanups, we have now two mailing lists
	* REAMDE-alpha: autogen -> bootstrap, we have now two mailing lists
	* THANKS: added Xavier Pianet
	* doc/PLATFORMS: BeOS works
	* doc/libtool.texi: we have now to two mailing lists,
	  updated -dlopen self documentation, documented libltdl's license,
	  put each author in a separate line,
	  inter-library dependencies on uninstalled libtool libraries are
	  now supported, cleanups and minor corrections
	* libltdl/COPYING.LIB: new file
	* libltdl/ltdl.[ch]: added special exception to the LGPL license
	* libtool.spec: removed, it was outdated
	* Makefile.am: removed libtool.spec
	* ltmain.in: use TMPDIR when possible, create a subdirectory
	  in the temporary directory, added -export-symbols-regex to the help,

1999-03-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* demo/Makefile.am: create a static library, link two libtool
	archives with it, then link the program hell0 with both
	* demo/hell1.c, demo/hell2.c: dummy files used to create the
	libtool archives without introducing symbol conflicts
	* tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: run the new program
	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): pass_all

	* ltmain.in ($PATH): instead of modifying the PATH, better prevent
	its expansion the first time *_cmds variables are eval'ed.  Modify
	$show within loops that eval them so as to expand variables
	* ltconfig.in (*_cmds): quote $ so that they're not expanded by
	the first eval

1999-03-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in ($PATH):  Expand any tildes in the users path to the
	contents of $HOME to avoid problems with *_cmds splitting and
	evaluation.

1999-03-24 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: support -dlopen for libraries
	* doc/PLATFORMS: Erez Zadok reported that libtool works on bsdi 4.0.1
	* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): libltdl supports BeOS
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: shlib_ext was declared even if LTDL_SHLIB_EXT
	  didn't exist, partially reverted my previous patch: BeOS will
	  automatically search in ADDON_PATH
	* ltmain.in: don't allow relative run-paths, fixed a typo in a warning,
	  ignore -dlopen self for libraries and objects,
	  only accept -L paths that exist, minor cleanups,
	  bugfix: add -lc for normal libraries, not convenicence libraries
	  removed offensive warnings/comments

1999-03-24  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): disable shared libraries

1999-03-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.in: the sed expression for finding the shared
	library extension used to think the . in [.] for the cygwin
	shared_library_names_spec was the start of the extension!!  We now
	remove anything in square brackets (assuming that the square
	brackets delimit a sed or expr expression which is not part of the
	extension) before looking for the extension.

	* TODO (cygwin):  food for thought re: mutually dependant dlls.

1999-03-21  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* tests/build-relink.test: if we relink and have hardcode_direct,
	removing an uninstalled library breaks an uninstalled program

	* doc/libtool.texi: documented convenience libraries
	* TODO: removed entry about it

	* tests/*-unst.test: if directory is not configured, skip it
	* tests/demo.test, tests/mdemo.test: unused, removed
	* tests/depdemo.test: ditto

1999-03-20 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documentation for -module updated
	* ltconfig.in: fast-install mode doesn't work for
	  hardcode_into_libs=yes
	* ltmain.in: bugfix: "-dlopen self [-all]-static" wouldn't use
	  dlopen_self_static, automatically enable -export-dynamic when
	  using "-dlopen self",	always make run-paths absolute,
	  ignore -lc only on platforms that don't have such a library,
	  cleanups in the ILD code, find even installed libtool libraries
	  that were moved, before generating the DLL-import library we need
	  to set libname, improved hardcoding of shlibpath for libraries,
	  don't generate an installable pseudo-library for convenience
	  libraries, bugfix: export_symbols would be removed immediately
	  before it is used

1999-03-19 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* use the same header in all configure.in's and Makefile.am's
	* NEWS: improved support for BeOS and Cygwin
	* TODO: ILD branch was merged, all internal variables and macros
	  are now documented
	* demo/Makefile.am: use $(LIBS) instead of -lm
	* doc/libtool.texi: documented new variable hardcode_into_libs
	  and thread_safe_flag_spec, renamed all AM_ENABLE/DISABLE_* macros
	  to AC_*, documented AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL and AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: added two new error messages (cannot_open_error,
	  cannot_close_error), use them where approriate,
	  BeOS support (thanks to Xavier Pianet), on BeOS search modules
	  additionally in ADDON_PATH
	* libtool.m4: rewrote AC_CHECK_LIBM: BeOS and Cygwin don't have
	  libm and *-ncr-sysv4.3* requires libmw
	* ltconfig.in: don't check for LoadLibrary, hardcode dlopen
	  configuration for BeOS and Cygwin
	* ltmain.in: fix sourcing of .la files on Solaris
	  (patch by Raja R Harinath)

1999-03-19  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, with_gnu_ld, hardcode_minus_L): remove,	we
	have -rpath
	(aix4*, without_gnu_ld, hardcode_shlibpath_var): unsupported is
	default
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, archive_cmds): drop +s, unneeded here
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): add +s
	before +b
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): since +s
	appears before +b, set it to yes
	(hardcode_shlibpath_var, hardcode_action): do not use
	shlibpath_var to specify the compile-time search path; it loses,
	and we may end up linking with pre-installed older versions of
	libraries instead of yet-to-be-installed ones
	(*, hardcode_direct, hardcode_minus_L): remove entries that set
	them to no, that is default

	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct, hc-libpath, hc-minusL): link with
	$$hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, if available, with libdir=$(libdir),
	to make sure the hardcode_* variables will produce the expected
	results even in the presence of a hardcoding flag; depend on
	libhello.la having been installed already
	(hc-libflag): link with the installed library, but try to
	hard-code the uninstalled one
	* doc/libtool.texi: document the changes

	* tests/*.test: when a test fails, skip tests that depend on it.
	If a certain configuration is not supported, skip all its tests.

	* doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order

	* tests/noinst-link.test: new test
	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): added noinst-link.test
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it

1999-03-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (dependency_libs): There is no reason to infer that
	the pseudo library is invalid if dependency_libs='' at
	install-time, or else libltdl/libltdl.la is invalid!!

1999-03-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* merged my inter-library dependencies code from the ILD branch:
	* NEWS: inter-library dependencies are now supported
	* configure.in: add the depdemo subdirectory
	* depdemo/*: new demo to demonstrate inter-library dependencies
	* tests/depdemo*: new tests for depdemo
	* ltconfig.in: added hardcode_into_libs (whether library paths
	  should be hardcoded into the libraries),
	  it currently defaults to 'no'
	* ltmain.in: new internal 'relink' mode to relink libraries
	  on platforms with hardcode_into_libs=yes, save command line
	  arguments in libtool_args, accept relative -L directories,
	  ignore -lm on BeOS and Cygwin, always ignore -lc,
	  handle -l, -L and .la arguments later, always make the library
	  installation directory (-rpath) absolute, in relink mode don't
	  delete the not-relinked library and exit immediately after relinking,
	  try to find already-installed libtool libraries that were specified
	  using -l, support hardcoding of library paths into libraries too,
	  export shlibpath before linking libraries, and a lot of other
	  big changes that I don't want to describe here... please read
	  the source.

	* merged Gary's Win32 code from the ILD branch:
	* NEWS: Win32 DLLs are now supported
	* TODO: removed .a library namespace clash for win32.  It is
	  now resolved.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec):  removed $libname.a.
	  Creating a dll with libtool no longer creates an import library.
	* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): Create $objdir if it does
	  not exist -- i.e. we need to generate import an import library
	  in a directory which has no libs of its own.
	* doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds,
	  extract_expsyms_cmds): documented these new variables.
	* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): New variable.  Commands to
	  extract the exported symbol list from a dll.
	  (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds): New variable.  Commands to build
	  an old archive from the extracted expsyms list.
	* ltmain.in: run the cmds in extract_expsyms_cmds and
	  old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds as necessary.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, old_archive_from_new_cmds): no longer
	  required.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): I'm not even
	  sure whether win32 honours the runpath at all when searching for
	  a dll to load!  Anyway, when set to yes this prevents a gratuitous
	  warning.
	* ltmain.in (deplib): The cygwin environment doesn't actually have
	  -lm, and although the linker fakes having one, specifiying it to
	  libtool will break ILD, so we ignore it when generating
	  dependencies.

1999-03-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: Thanks to Alexandres changes below, both my
	hp boxes pass the entire test suite.

1999-03-17  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (hpux*, hardcode_minus_L): should be no, we have +b
	(hpux*, hardcode_libdir_separator): set to colon

1999-03-14  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: libltdl is now documented
	* doc/libltdl.texi (linking with installed libtool libraries):
	  fixed typo
	* doc/libltdl.texi (libltdl): added documentation for building

	* ltmain.in: don't ignore user-specified run-paths (fixed it
	  at the right place)

1999-03-14  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method=none): discard -L and -R
	switches when testing whether deplibs contains some library

1999-03-14  Erez Zadok  <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* config.sub: recognize hppa2.0w, yet to be installed at GNU

	* config.guess: minor update for FreeBSD-elf, yet to be installed
	at GNU

1999-03-14  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path_spec,
	sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): fix thinko in variable names; add
	standard directories

	* ltmain.in (exclude_expsyms): exclude symbols before sorting,
	otherwise only the sorted list will have them excluded

	* ltconfig.in (file_magic_cmd, file_magic_test_file, freebsd-elf*,
	bsdi4*): use full pathnames when possible

	* Makefile.am (all-recursive): depend on ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST
	(all-local, check-local): remove, unused

	* doc/PLATFORMS: updated platforms tested on 1.2f-pre; clean up;
	reorder; untabify

	* config.guess, config.sub: updated from GNU common

	* doc/libtool.texi: notes on thread-safety problems of
	libltdl/dlopen on GNU/Linux and FreeBSD

	* ltconfig.in (aix3*, aix4*): GNU ld on AIX is very broken: it
	cannot create working shared libraries.  Print a warning
	suggesting the user not to use it and disable shared libraries.

1999-03-13  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_to_cdecl): was reset before trying
	`symprfx=_', rendering the test with `_' useless

	* doc/libtool.texi (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): eliminate overfull boxes

	* doc/libtool.texi: complete dlopening/libltdl documentation

	* ltconfig.in (osf3*, osf4*, deplibs_check_method): pass_all does
	not really work; use file_magic instead.
	(osf3*, osf4*): customize sys_lib_[dl]search_path_spec

	* ltconfig.in (file_magic_test_file): new variable; if set, it
	will be used as an argument for $file_magic_cmd to test whether
	the regex in deplibs_check_method matches its output
	(file_magic_cmd): use full pathnames whenever possible

	* ltconfig.in (sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): new variable, that
	lists the system *run-time* search path.  Listed directories are
	not implicitly hard-coded into executables.
	* ltmain.in: use it, but *never* discard -R flags
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it
	* NEWS: ditto
	Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>

	* tests/sh.test: look for `$Xsed' without `$echo "X...'
	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: fixed a few such occurrences

	* ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): revert March 11's patch, I was
	barking up the wrong tree

1999-03-12  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: removed FILENAME_MAX since LTDL_FILENAME_MAX
	  is sufficient and doesn't break HP/UX

1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: (global_symbol_pipe) extract symbol tag from the
	output of NM too
	(global_symbol_to_cdecl): new variable; convert the output of
	global_symbol_pipe to valid C declarations; on HP/UX, convert
	text symbols to function declarations
	* libtool.m4: similar modifications
	* doc/libtool.texi: document new variable
	* ltmain.in: use global_symbol_to_cdecl to generate lt_dlpreopened
	symbols; avoid extracting symbol lists from dlpreopened files
	twice; do not filter symbols from dlpreopened libraries
	* TODO: fixed HP/UX dlpreopening problem

	* ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): set dlopen_self to
	$dlopen_self_static regardless of link_static_flag or pic_flag

	* ltmain.in: FreeBSD bug that needs symbol table compiled with
	-fPIC is fixed in release 3.1; use it only for 2.* and 3.0

1999-03-11  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: when building a library it doesn't make
	  sense to remove a relinked program ("lt-" prefix)

1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* mdemo/main.c (main, test_dl, test_dlself): propagate error
	conditions better, to avoid false positives

	* */configure.in: AC_SUBST(LIBTOOL_DEPS)
	* */Makefile.am $(OBJECTS): depend on libtool
	(libtool): rebuild automatically

	* ltconfig.in: set dlopen_* variables to unknown when appropriate
	* ltmain.in: only emit warning about lack of AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN if
	*all* dlopen_* variables are set to unknown

1999-03-11  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: delete the old output files (incl. the relinked binary)
	  before linking.

	* ltconfig.in: replaced `configure' with $progname and all
	  line numbers with @LINENO@

1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): cannot return str when it's NULL
	because of const correctness

1999-03-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): always use our own, because the
	standard strdup won't use lt_dlmalloc

	* ltconfig.in (dlfcn.h): function definition may cause warnings;
	define variable instead

	* ltmain.in: properly create an export file for a program,
	avoiding error messages about not finding it

	* TODO: need to document AC_LIBLTDL_*; static self dlopening
	problem fixed

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): just set lt_dlopen=yes
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): if lt_dlopen=yes, add --enable-dlopen to
	libtool_flags; drop --enable-dlopen-self
	* ltconfig.in: perform all the dirty work of testing for dlopening
	support, because we need platform-dependent equivalents for
	-export-dynamic, for self dlopening, and -static, for static self
	dlopening
	(dlopen_self_static): new configuration variable that is set to
	yes only if static programs can dlopen themselves
	* ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): dlopen_self=dlopen_self_static

	* libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_need_uscore): do not assume
	dlfcn.h and LTDL_LAZY exist; use LTDL_GLOBAL and LTDL_LAZY_OR_NOW.
	This test is likely to fail if self-dlopening does not work,
	especially because we do not link the program with
	-export-dynamic.  Let's just hope that platforms whose symbol
	names start with underscores will also accept underscores for
	dlopen.  We should probably use libtool to compile and link this
	test, so that we can use -export-dynamic.

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (@LIBLTDL@): depend on ../libltdl/config.h

	* configure.in: fix AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS for ltconfig and ltmain.sh
	so that they work if srcdir is relative too

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
	avoid introducing multiple --enable options when re-running
	config.status
	* libltdl/configure.in: if enable_ltdl_* is not set, assume no
	* configure.in: if enable_ltdl_install is not set, enable it

	* libltdl/configure.in: only assume implicit installation if
	libltdl was libtoolized.  If not, print a warning message
	suggesting the use of --enable-ltdl-install or of one of the
	AC_LIBLTDL_* macros.

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): new macro, that does all the
	configure-work that AC_PROG_LIBTOOL used to do; add
	--cache-file=$cache_file to libtool_flags
	(AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): call AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, save the cache, run
	ltconfig and reload the cache
	* configure.in: run AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, then set LIBTOOL_FLAGS to
	libtool_flags
	* ltconfig.in: support --cache-file switch.  If it is used, load
	the cache in the beginning and save it just before terminating

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): run demo-nofast before demo-shared

	* configure.in: create ltconfig and ltmain.sh at the end of
	config.status, if they do not exist.  This fixes the bootstrap
	problem reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

1999-03-10  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: sorted by importance
	* Makefile.am: set LIBTOOL_FLAGS when generating libtool
	* configure.in: check for dlopen support and set LIBTOOL_FLAGS
	  accordingly

	* configure.in: fix spacing for --disable-ltdl-install,
	  always configure libltdl, add libltdl/acinclude.m4 to
	  ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, disable installation of libltdl if necessary
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: set version info for libltdl.la
	* libltdl/configure.in: don't check whether
	  enable_ltdl_convenience/install was set so that libltdl
	  can be used as independent package (libltdl.tar.gz) without
	  the need to use --enable-ltdl*
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: minor cleanups, allocate the line cache
	  dynamically (lt_dlopen)

1999-03-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): some preprocessors choke if the `#'
	of `#define' is not in column 1; let's go back to fortran! :-)
	Add #undefs too, to avoid potential warnings or errors.

1999-03-09  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
	renamed convenience libltdl, dropped toinst hack for installable
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: ditto
	* libltdl/configure.in: ditto; abort if none of the macros is used

	* ltmain.in: $output_objdir/$objdir/ -> $output_objdir/lt-

1999-03-09  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): don't hardcode the length of the
	  constant strings

1999-03-09  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am (install-data-hook): install libltdl as a directory,
	not as a tar-file, so that we do not modify the build tree at make
	install time
	* libtoolize.in (ltdl, ltdl_tar): update

	* configure.in, Makefile.am, NEWS: install libltdl by default

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
	new macros
	* NEWS: ditto
	* libltdl/configure.in: if none of the new macros or configure
	arguments are used, warn and build convenience library only
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: conditionally build convenience libltdl.la
	* mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: refer to @LIBLTDL@

1999-03-09  Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>

	* NEWS: updated.

1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in: extract symbols from program objects to nlist first,
	then translate them to the export_symbols format.  Now it works,
	but it appears to be needlessly extracting the symbol list from
	dlpreopened libraries twice

	* ltmain.in: temporarily disable dlopen_self when linking with
	-static or -all-static, until we figure out how to test whether it
	works at configure time

	* TODO: remember to fix this later

	* tests/build-relink.test: when hell is expected to fail, run it
	within a subshell and redirect stderr to stdout, so that dynamic
	linker errors are only printed in verbose mode

	* ltmain.in (hardcode_libdir_separator, compile_rpath,
	finalize_rpath): only substitute hardcode_libdir_flag_spec if
	hardcode_libdirs is non-empty

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): do not depend on the existence
	of dlfcn.h nor on the definition of RTLD_LAZY

	* tests/build-relink.test: hellT was renamed to lt-hell

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (@TOINST@/libltdl.la): do not hide the
	command that creates the TOINST directory; remove `-o $@' from the
	LINK command, $(LINK) already contains it.

1999-03-08  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (tests): documented demo-nofast.test and
	  renamed cdemo* to demo*

1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/configure.in, mdemo/Makefile.am:
	libltdl must not be renamed; if there's a problem with the install
	option, let's fix it, not just work around it by breaking code of
	users of the convenience library

	* tests/build-relink.test: link broken libhello.la with at least
	one libtool object

1999-03-08  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: updated (libltdl build problem fixed)
	* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl interface): removed the line which
	  promised that lt_dlopen will return NULL if it can't resolve all
	  symbols
	* libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/configure.in: fixed build problem:
	  renamed the convenience library to libltdlc.la and the
	  installed version to libltdl.la
	* ltmain.in (wrapper script): replaced the "T" suffix of the program
	  file name with a "lt-" prefix
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdlc.la
	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/demo-nofast.test: added demo to
	  test --enable-fast-install=no

1999-03-07  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): run hardcode before build-relink
	trashes libhello.la
	* tests/hardcode.test (need_prefix): set to yes so that _inst is
	not removed

	* ltmain.in (compile_command): append finalize search path to
	compile search path

	* tests/build-relink.test: new; check shlibpath_overrides_runpath
	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): add build-relink.test; remove
	hardcode.test duplicates
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it

	* ltmain.in (relink_command): do not prepend cd `pwd` to it, the
	scripts already enters the correct directory, and expanding the
	pathname would prevent the build tree from moving

	* ltconfig.in (enable_fast_install): force it to no only if we
	need relink; in the other cases, set it to needless
	* ltmain.in (fast_install): if needless, set relink_command empty
	* doc/libtool.texi (fast_install, shlibpath_overrides_runpath):
	document the new behavior

	* ltconfig.in (enable_fast_install): test whether it can be forced
	off after shlibpath_overrides_runpath and enable_shared are set

1999-03-07  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: updated
	* NEWS: updated

	* TODO: scheduled some items for next release/future
	* demo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* libtool.m4: added AC_ENABLE/DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL macro
	* ltconfig.in: added --disable-fast-install flag
	* ltmain.in: partially reverted Alexandre's patch and implemented
	  on-demand linking in such a way that the old developer-friendly
	  linking style is optional,
	  don't hardcode library paths that are in the system search path,
	  fixed a typo in lib_search_path,
	  implemented -export-symbols-regex for programs

1999-03-06  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LTDL_LAZY_OR_NOW): renamed from LTDL_NOW; prefer
	LAZY loading because it's much faster and NOW is apparently
	partially broken on FreeBSD
	Reported by Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com>

	* ltconfig.in (archive_expsym_cmds, solaris, without_gnu_ld):
	$lib.exp already starts with $objdir/
	Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>

	* ltmain.in (freebsd): compile symbol table file with pic_flag
	only on FreeBSD and when not static linking; it's been causing
	trouble on platforms such as OpenBSD.

1999-02-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (cygwin): s/\\(mingw\\|cygwin\\)32/\\1/g.  Must've
	missed this file when I changed to cygnus' new sanction name.

	* ltconfig.in (sub_uncdrive): removed.  This won't work with
	the next version of cygwin.
	(sub_uncdir): removed. We use <drive>:/path/to/executable now.
	* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): removed sub_uncdrive and sub_uncdir.

1999-02-25  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: added items for next alpha release, ILD etc.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: removed unnecessary check from presym_sym,
	  fixed bug in lt_dlclose, allow lt_dlopenext(NULL),
	  set deplibs for lt_dlopen(NULL)

1999-02-24  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): sed `10q' is faster than `11,$d'

1999-02-22  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in (dlopen, dlopen_self): default is unknown
	* ltmain.in: fixed -dlopen self, print a warning
	  if -dlopen is used without AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: use -dlopen self

1999-02-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in: added missing mkdir $progdir for on-demand executable

	* ltmain.in: create on-demand executable as $progdir/$$-$program,
	and rename it to $progdir/$program only when it's finished, to
	avoid race conditions.  We can still get the program linked
	multiple times, if multiple instances are started simultaneously
	and the program does not exist, but they are very unlikely to
	interfere with each other.  There's still a possibility that one
	process removes the $program another has just created, and doesn't
	replace it before the other tries to run it, in a system whose
	`mv' is not atomic, so it will $rm then $mv, but so what? :-)
	Locking files have been avoided to prevent dead-locks in case they
	are left over after a reboot or crash.

	* TODO: removed ILD, soon to be merged, and added convenience
	libraries docs

	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, shlibpath_overides_runpath): yes

	* ltmain.in: remove on-demand executable in the proper place, and
	just warn if it can't be removed; add wrapper code to test whether
	the install-executable is newer than the build-executable, to
	relink it when it appears to be out-of-date

	* libltdl/configure.in: check for dld.h
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: include dld.h
	(dld_open) it's spelled memory_error, not no_memory_error
	Reported by Stefan Burstroem <f94sbu@efd.lth.se>

	* ltmain.in: fix typos in my last change (s/ocmpile/compile/)

1999-02-21  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
	  when dlopening the executable
	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): removed the redundant "yes: "
	  prefix for lt_cv_dlopen, renamed lt_cv_dlopen_LIBS
	  to lt_cv_dlopen_libs (more consistent)
	* ltmain.in: implemented -dl[pre]open self, necessary for
	  lt_dlopen(NULL), generation of exported symbols was broken

1999-02-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in: avoid duplication of -L switches, it sometimes breaks
	IRIX 5.2's linker

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd*, finish_cmds): expand objformat here
	Reported by Vladimir Kushnir <kushn@mail.kar.net>

1999-02-20  Vladimir Kushnir <kushn@mail.kar.net>

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd-elf*, need_version, need_lib_prefix): no
	(freebsd-elf*, library_names_spec): add $libname.so instead of
	$libname.so$versuffix; add $libname$release.so

1999-02-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* doc/libtool.texi: remove ticks from menu items; it breaks TeX
	Reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltmain.in: fixes for export-symbols dry-run

	* ltconfig.in (shlibpath_overrides_runpath): new variable;
	determines whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent can be used to
	override a hard-coded library search path; default to unknown
	(linux-gnu*): set it to no
	(solaris*, sunos4*): set it to yes
	* ltmain.in (build_libdirs_flags, build_libdirs, build_rpath): if
	shlibpath_overrides_runpath is not yes, arrange that wrapper
	scripts create, on demand, programs that use uninstalled libraries

	* doc/libtool.texi: document it

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): check for dlopen in libc before
	trying in dl.  Add the actual dlopening type to lt_cv_dlopen, and
	add any needed libraries to lt_cv_dlopen_LIBS.  Add test for
	MS-Windows' LoadLibrary.  Check whether a program can dlopen
	itself only if we really have dlopen(), not some equivalent
	function, but leave room for testing with other mechanisms.
	(AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): assume some form of dlopen, but not
	dlopen(NULL), is available if AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN is not used, for
	backward compatibility.

1999-02-20  Archie Cobbs  <archie@whistle.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
	where appropriate, when dlopening a non-libtool library

1999-02-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (export_symbols_cmds): renamed from
	export_symbols_cmd.
	(cygwin, mingw): Be sure to compile the ltdll.c object before
	extracting the exported symbol list.  Extract only the names
	of the exported symbols from the def file [otherwise we might
	run into trouble with -export-symbols-regex].
	(archive_expsym_cmds): Regenerate the def file from the symbol
	export list.
	(delay_variable_subst): New sed expression to allow us to delay
	evaluation of $foo in a double_quote_subst evaluated variable by
	using \$.
	* ltmain.in (export_symbols_cmds): evaluate each ~ delimitted cmd
	separately.
	* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): new paragraph to
	explain the difference between _cmd and _cmds suffixes for
	variable names.
	(export_symbols_cmds): renamed from export_symbols_cmd.

1999-02-18  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): move -soname and similar flags to the
	end of archive_cmds and archive_expsym_cmds, so as to prevent
	gcc's collect2 from inserting an object file between -soname and
	the library name

	* ltconfig.in (openbsd*, netbsd*, library_names_spec): append
	alternate name without ${release}, otherwise build fails when
	-release is used

1999-02-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (archive{,_sym}_commands): Be careful not to
	re-export the dll entry points DllMain@12, _cygwin_dll_entry@12 and
	_cygwin_noncygwin_dll_entry@12 to avoid bugs with the wrong entry
	function being called with inter-dll dependencies.
	Reported by DJ Delorie <dj@delorie.com>
	* THANKS: Added DJ Delorie, since his code inspired the impgen.c
	program and because he has patiently answered all of the
	irritating dll and win32 questions I have fired at him.

	* ltmain.in (version_type):  Oops.  Irix versioning implies that
	major version numbers are 1 based (not zero based).  Fixed.

	* ltmain.in (version_type): Implement irix versioning.
	* ltconfig.in (irix{5,6}*): Use new irix shared object versioning.
	* TODO: remove irix versioning from TODO list.

	* ltmain.in (impgen.c): Added a new embedded C file that can be
	used under win32 to extract a def file (symbol export list) from a
	dll that has none.  Code to use it might need to wait for the ILD
	merge before it will be useful...

1999-02-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: updated
	* autogen: only libltdl needs autoheader
	* doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documented -export-symbols-regex
	  and updated -export-symbols
	* doc/libtool.texi (script contents): documented
	  always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
	  include_expsyms, dlopen and dlopen_self
	  more detailed description of need_lib_prefix
	* ltconfig.in: a "'" was missing in the default value
	  of export_symbols_cmd
	* ltmain.in: implemented -export-symbols-regex

1999-02-17  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: (freebsd2*, sunos4*, exclude_expsyms): exclude
	_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
	* ltmain.in: implement exclude_expsyms with egrep

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlmalloc, lt_dlfree): SunOS' cc can't cope
	with argument lists, we __P even in the definition

1999-02-15  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* cdemo/Makefile.am: renamed *foo1 to *foo, removed $(MATH_LIB)
	* cdemo/foo1.c: renamed to foo.c
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: eliminated lt_dltype, in presym_open():
	  search for @PROGRAM@ if filename == 0, in lt_dlopen():
	  fixed bug for filename == 0
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: use __P macro for lt_dlmalloc/free
	* libtool.m4: new macro AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN: checks for dlopen
	  and dlopen(NULL) support
	* ltconfig.in: added new variables dlopen and dlopen_self,
	  --enable-dlopen[-self] flags for AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* ltmain.in: use dlopen[_self], dlpreopen files if there's no
	  dlopen support, build lt_preloaded_symbols only if
	  -dl[pre]open was used, include program symbols if -export-dynamic
	  was specified and there's no dlopen(NULL) support
	* mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* mdemo/main.c: demonstrate lt_dlopen(0)

1999-02-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* demo/dlmain.c (_WIN32): The lt_symlist structure is now const,
	so my original horrible temporary win32 hack no longer worked.
	Here is a new horrible temporary hack to prevent helldl from SEGVing
	on win32.  I will fix this properly when we figure out how to do
	data exports from dlls.

1999-02-14  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libtool.m4 (AC_CHECK_LIBM): do not set MATHLIB or AC_SUBST it,
	this has a negative side-effect of causing automake to add MATHLIB
	to every single Makefile.  Let's use plain AC_CHECK_LIB, so that
	LIBS get set, until we find a better alternative
	* *demo/Makefile.am: remove $(MATHLIB)

	* libltdl/configure.in: add a DESCRIPTION argument to AC_DEFINEs
	where appropriate, so as to get rid of acconfig.h
	* libltdl/acconfig.h: removed

1999-02-13  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* *demo/Makefile.am: use $(MATHLIB)
	* *demo/configure.in: use AC_CHECK_LIBM
	* doc/libtool.texi: renamed file_magic_command to file_magic_cmd,
	  renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds
	* ltconfig.in: ditto
	* ltmain.in: ditto
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: use lt_dlmalloc/free
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: define lt_dlmalloc/free
	* libtool.m4: added AC_CHECK_LIBM macro
	* ltconfig.in: renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds,
	  added always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
	  include_expsyms, removed archive_cmds for cygwin/mingw and AIX,
	  on Solaris store the exported symbols list in objdir
	* ltmain.in: allow -export-symbols for modules, use thread_safe flag,
	  add include_expsyms to the exported symbols

1999-02-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXTERN): libltdl is no longer linked as a
	shared library, so the _declspec's were preventing the linker from
	resolving symbols on win32.  They have been removed now.

1999-02-12  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in: don't try to read objdir/libname.la before it is
	created!

	* ltmain.in: create libname.lai at link time, not at install time,
 	but still create it at install time if it is missing
	Reported by Akim Demaille <demaille@inf.enst.fr>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): strcmp filenames was reversed

1999-02-11  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* autogen: libltdl needs autoheader
	* demo/Makefile.am: renamed hell.debug to hell.static
	  (we're demonstrating static linking, not debugging)
	* tests/demo*: ditto
	* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): documented new lt_dlopen(NULL)
	  feature
	* libltdl/acconfig.h: required for config.h
	* libltdl/configure.in: use config.h
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: use config.h, support lt_dlopen(NULL)
	  (returns a handle for the program itself)
	* ltconfig.in: minor reformatting
	* ltmain.in: in lt_preloaded_symbols always define
	  the program's symbols first, for -export-dynamic list all
	  program symbols together, -export-symbols was broken for
	  programs, minor reformatting
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed mdemo.debug to mdemo.static
	* tests/mdemo*: ditto, mdemo.test was completely broken

1999-02-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, osf3*, osf4*): do not use
	-set_version in archive_cmds if verstring is empty
	(irix6*, shlibpath_var, sys_lib_search_path-spec,
	deplibs_check_method): set appropriate values depending on
	selected ABI, -32, -n32 or -64, as set in LD by libtool.m4
	(uts4*): remove dot between .so and versuffix

1999-02-08  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): use
	file_magic for inter-library dependency tracking

	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, hardcode_libdir_separator): set it to a
	colon, because on IRIX 5 only the last -rpath switch prevails, and
	it can be a list of colon-separated directories.  This change will
	affect irix6 too, but that's not a problem.

	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, library_names_spec): add soname_spec,
	otherwise we can't dlopen

1999-02-08  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: according to Marcus Sundberg <mackan@stacken.kth.se>
	  HP/UX, IRIX, OpenBSD, Digital Unix and SunOS support
	  need_version=no and need_lib_prefix=no,
	  fixed a bug in Solaris' archive_sym_cmds

1999-02-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe): accept TAB in
	addition to space as separator, and allow more than one space
	between the symbol code and the symbol name; HP/UX's nm, for
	example, uses two spaces
	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): ditto
	(bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): variable name was misspelled
	* libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_preloaded_symbols): rewrite
	test, so as not to depend on the way global_symbol_pipe is
	initialized; the current test would get false positives, as
	global_symbol_pipe was initialized `x=""', not `x='

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): initialize filename if dir is NULL
	Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>

1999-02-04  Godmar Back  <gback@cs.utah.edu>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): missing space for terminator when
	allocating memory for shlib_ext

1999-02-03  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): tmp would be trashed if shlib_ext
 	was longer than 3 characters

1999-02-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: new config.guess returns *-*-cygwin now instead of
	*-*-cygwin32.  sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltconfig.in
	* ltmain.in:   sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltmain.in

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, allow_undefined_flag,
	archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds, old_archive_from_new_cmds):
	removed duplication of config by assuming that `test $with_gcc =
	yes' implies gnu ld, otherwise MSVC++ (which I haven't tested
	since I inheritted the code from Ian Lance Taylor btw!) is implied.

1999-01-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Reverted this change of Alexandre's from the
	1999-01-25; "don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
	there's no PIC flag.  It loses if --disable-static, and there's
	not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...",
	because not all linkers will accept .lo object names.
	* ltmain.in: In the case where --disable-static is specified (as
	noted in Alexandre's log entry), we just link some .o files to
	prevent the original error.
	Reported by Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>

1999-01-27  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libtoolize.in: search for A[MC]_PROG_LIBTOOL, not
	AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
	Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

1999-01-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* THANKS: Now that we have a policy, applied it to the existing
	list.  This in no way demeans the work of those people removed
	from the THANKS file, who are still credited in the ChangeLogs and
	without who's work, libtool would not work so well on many
	platforms, but serves to highlight the outstanding and continued
	contribution the remaining people have made.  And I quote, "We
	reserve THANKS for people who have made major contributions, and
	leave the credit to the others for the ChangeLog only."

	* THANKS: added Sam Vilain.
	* ltconfig.in ($echo):  When using printf to replace echo the shell
	expands %s\n to %sn.  Changed to use "%s\n" (with quotes).
	Reported by Sam Vilain <sam.vilain@nz.unisys.com>

1999-01-27  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): fix endless loop condition
	(find_module): filename allocation was off by 1

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (distclean-local): renamed from
	distclean-hook, that didn't work

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen, non-.la): find_file now returns 0 on
	failure

	* Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): some broken makes don't like
	macros in targets; replace $(srcdir) with @srcdir@
	* configure.in (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): same problem; expand $srcdir

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (@TOINST@/libltdl.la): if installation is
	enabled, create to-be-installed libltdl.la within @TOINST@
	directory
	(noinst_LTLIBRARIES): even if installation is enabled, build
	convenience libltdl.la, otherwise builds of random packages may
	fail if the user happens to enable installation
	(distclean-hook): wipe out $(TOINST)
	* libltdl/configure.in: set TOINST and LIBLIBS as appropriate;
	don't set NOINSTLIBS any more
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdl.la

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): oops, filenamesize was miscomputed

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): allocate filename dynamically

	* libltdl/configure.in (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): automake does not
	recognize it and fail, better keep using AM_PROG_LIBTOOL until the
	next release of automake
	* demo/configure.in, cdemo/configure.in: ditto
	* depdemo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: ditto

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: make all global strings char[], not char*; check
	that all calls to malloc() are properly cast
	(strdup, strchr, strrchr, trim, free_vars): declare as inline
	(find_module): allocate filename dynamically; support null dir
	(free_vars): free dir and name only if non-null
	(lt_dlopen): keep dir as NULL if not given; fix expression that
	calculated the size of name; only free and name if non-null
	(lt_dlopenext): allocate tmp dynamically

	* configure.in (pkgdatadir): expand ${PACKAGE} at configure-time,
	just like automake does

	* configure.in (pkgdatadir): define pkgdatadir explicitly, and
 	comment that automake does not need it, but libtoolize does

	* Makefile.am (aclocaldir): do not set it explicitly, automake
	does already

	* configure.in (TIMESTAMP): use mkstamp here too

1999-01-27  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* cdemo/configure.in: renamed AM_PROG_LIBTOOL to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
	* demo/configure.in: likewise
	* depdemo/configure.in: likewise
	* libltdl/configure.in: likewise
	* mdemo/configure.in: likewise
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: in find_module() check whether libdir is defined,
	  tryall_dlopen(): move deallocation of an already opened handle
	  to lt_dlopen(), allocate the directory in lt_dlopen() dynamically,
	  minor cleanups, fixed memory leak (name)
	* libtool.m4: renamed all AM_ macros to AC_ and added aliases for
	  compatibilty, updated AC_SYS_NM_PARSE (no undefined symbols,
	  don't count the symbols)
	* ltconfig.in: added thread_safe_flag_spec (not used yet),
	  added generic variable for linker options "linkopts" in
	  all archive_cmds
	* ltmain.in: added -thread-safe flag (unused)

1999-01-26  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): damn!, adding TIMESTAMP doesn't
 	always work, because then different ChangeLog timestamps fail to
 	pass the version test.  Instead of forcing both ltconfig and
	ltmain.sh to be updated every time ChangeLog changes, better
	revert it

	* ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): add TIMESTAMP, remove
	explicit quotes and add it to the list of variables to quote

	* ltmain.in: reworded `dropped inter-library dependencies'
	message, and added a warning about inter-library dependencies even
	for non-module builds

1999-01-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Don't show the if expression
	that tests for gzip with a conditional error message; just do it
	quietly and show the error if it fails, or the next action if it
	succeeds.

	* configure.in:  It seems Alexandre accidentally removed the
	AC_SUBST(pkgdatadir) line recently which breaks libtoolize.
	Reverted that small change.

1999-01-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): test old_name and dlname for NULL,
	not len==0

	* libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_objdir): yes, appending the "/"
	in configure.in was much simpler
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): ditto

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): string collation isn't portable; strcat
	"/" explicitly.  Or should this be moved to configure.in?

1999-01-25  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: allocate the variables in lt_dlopen() dynamically

1999-01-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (file_magic): use egrep instead of expr to support
	more general regular expressions
	(file_regex): remove it; the name is misleading, it's not used
 	anywhere, and probably will never be
	* ltconfig.in, doc/libtool.texi: ditto
	* ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): extend regex to
	support `LSB dynamic lib' in the output of `file'
	Reported by Scott D. Heavner <sdh@po.cwru.edu>

	* ltmain.in (dependency_libs, xrpath): add -R switches to
	dependency_libs only just before creating the .la file; they
	should not be passed to the C compiler or linker at
	library-creation time, since we don't know whether it is supported

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd2.2*, hardcode_minus_L): for FreeBSD 2.2.6,
	this must be `no'

	* mkstamp: move the sed script to extract revision and date
	information into a separate shell-script, so that we can break
	lines between commands; FreeBSD's sed doesn't like `;' after `t'
	Reported by Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm@physik.fu-berlin.de>
	* Makefile.am: use mkstamp
	* THANKS: added Axel Thimm

	* ltmain.in: don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
	there's no PIC flag.  It loses if --disable-static, and there's
	not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...

	* ltmain.in (pass_all=none, droppeddeps): set only if deplibs was
	non-empty

1999-01-24  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: minor bugfixes, append a "/" the search
	  directory only if necessary
	* ltconfig.in: added support for FreeBSD >= 3.0
	  (patch from Kurt D. Zeilenga)
	* THANKS: added Kurt D. Zeilenga

1999-01-24  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): list supported dlopen mechanisms,
	  added function lt_dlopenext(), removed reference to
	  LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS in LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: partially reverted Alexandre's dynamic string
	  allocation change (it was not necessary and the code was unreadable),
	  cleanups, removed usr_search_path_size, renamed usr_search_path
	  to user_search_path, in find_module() also check for moved
	  modules, merged find_file() and find_library(),
	  added lt_dlopenext(), in lt_dladdsearchdir() no longer reset
	  the search path if 'search_dir' == NULL and don't use realloc()
	  (might not be available on all platforms),
	  removed __P((void)) in the declaration of lt_dlgetsearchpath()
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: added lt_dlopenext()
	* ltconfig.in: AIX archive commands were broken,
	  fixed a MAJOR bug in global_symbol_pipe which caused
	  "demo-shared.test;demo-make.test" to fail (libtool must not extract
	  undefined symbols of libraries, i.e. symcode must not contain 'U')
	* tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): "make distclean" in cdemo, too

1999-01-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add ChangeLog Revision to
	TIMESTAMP
	* configure.in: get values of PACKAGE and VERSION set by
	AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, and extract only TIMESTAMP from the ChangeLog

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if we're reusing a previously opened
	handle, don't reset its name nor add it to the list, and free the
	name we have allocated
	Reported by Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>

	* Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh, TIMESTAMP): let's not assume
	anything about the format of the date, just that it does not
	contain `$'

1999-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.in (date): echo the version number during
	configuration, and show $date for cvs versions.

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Oops.  cvs co keyword
	expansion ate the sed expression! Changed sed separator to '%'
	because there are '/' in the date.  Added missing '\(' to search
	expression.  Inserted a null string to stop cvs from expanding it
	next time =)O|
	($(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): ditto.

1999-01-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am (TSDEPS_DIST): dist-time dependencies for timestamps
	(timestamps, update-timestamps): check whether TSDEPS_DIST are
	up-to-date and update ltconfig and ltmain.sh if needed
	(ltconfig, ltmain.sh): depend on TSDEPS; replace @TIMESTAMP@ with
	the Date tag in the ChangeLog
	(TSDEPS): empty unless overridden by update-timestamps
	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (TIMESTAMP): append timestamp to most
	references to VERSION

1999-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (ild): Revert the change which allowed libtool to
	link libraries with dependencies on .la libs.
	* NEWS: Removed reference to win32, incase 1.3 ships before
	ild is ready.
	* doc/PLATFORMS: Removed i686-pc-cygwin32, for the same reason.
	* doc/libtool.texi: Removed win32 refs, for the same reason.

1999-01-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (Xsed): add 1 to Xsed definition that goes into
	temporary wrapper scripts
	* libtool.m4: we don't have Xsed here, expand it manually
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-01-22  Edouard G. Parmelan  <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>

	* ltmain.in (finalize_hardcode_libdirs, finalize_rpath): in
	platforms that use -rpath, programs must be finalized at
	installation time, otherwise build-tree programs will
	prefer installed libraries over build-tree ones

1999-01-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libtool): if it does not exist,
	the sub-make for libltdlc.la will take care of it, but we must at
	least provide an empty rule for it, otherwise the sub-make will
	never run

	* demo/configure.in, demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): reverted; it
	didn't make any difference.

1999-01-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* THANKS: Added Chris Laas <golem@MIT.EDU>

	From Chris Laas <golem@MIT.EDU>
	* ltmain.in (compile):  corrected a typo in compile mode which
	caused "gcc: unrecognized option -c-fPIC" errors due to a missing
	space.

1999-01-21  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/configure.in: reintroduce code to detect native library
	extension
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if a .la file name is given, that's
	all.  Otherwise, lt_dlopen now tries to append .la first.  If this
	fails, it tries the given filename, and, at last, tries to append
	the native library extension to the given filename.
	* doc/libtool.texi (lt_dlopen): explain new lookup strategy

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: major rewrite to avoid almost all fixed-size
	buffers; only `tmp' in lt_dlopen remained.  But the code got ugly
	:-(

	* ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, finish_cmds): remove erroneous backslash

	* demo/configure.in: set DLPREOPEN to -dlopen if we don't have
	shared libraries
	* demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): use instead of -dlpreopen
	(STATIC): use $(STATIC), not @STATIC@
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): ditto

	* tests/demo-shared.test, tests/demo-static.test: new tests
	* tests/mdemo-shared.test, tests/mdemo-static.test: ditto
	* tests/Makefile.am: ditto
	* doc/libtool.texi: document them
	* demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): do not use
	-static unconditionally, it can't work with --disable-static
	* demo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: check whether libtool was
	configured to build static libraries and, if not, set STATIC to an
	empty string

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (module, droppeddeps): if libtool could not satisfy
	all dependencies of a module, it will only build a static version
	of it, and display a warning message

1999-01-20  Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*, with_gcc, archive_cmds): fix typo in Andrey
	Slepuhin's last patch

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): work around Ultrix /bin/sh bug
	* tests/nomode.test (must specify a MODE): ditto
	Reported by Rainer Orth <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE>
	* THANKS: Added Rainer Orth

1999-01-20  Rainer Orth  <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE>

	* ltconfig.in: No known version of Solaris 2 hardcoded -L paths.

1999-01-20  Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltmain.in: s/n\'t/ not/
	* doc/PLATFORMS: updates for sunos4/m68k and aix

1999-01-20  Andrey Slepuhin  <pooh@msu.ru>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*): check for reworked collect2, always pass
	-bnoentry option to linker when building a shared library

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (file_magic): follow soft-links before running `file'
	on the candidate library; try to avoid entering endless loop
	Suggested by Nix <nix@esperi.demon.co.uk>

	* ltconfig.in (linux*, solaris*, bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path):
	remove expansion of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
	* ltmain.in (lib_search_path): append the expansion of $shlibpath_var
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it

	* THANKS: Added Steven Schultz

1999-01-20  Steven M. Schultz <sms@wlv.iipo.gtegsc.com>

	* ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, check_shared_deplibs_method): file_magic
	(bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path): add /shlib and other dirs

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* cdemo/main.c (main): use K&R definition syntax
	* mdemo/main.c (test_dl, main): ditto
	(test_dl): casts return value of lt_dlsym to appropriate types

	* ltmain.in (dlsyms): #define const to nothing if not __STDC__

	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): #define const to nothing if
	not __STDC__

	* demo/dlmain.c (main): cast s->address to the appropriate pointer
 	types, otherwise StunOS4's cc refuses to compile it

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, without_gnu_ld, with_gcc, archive_cmds):
 	add -fPIC, because libgcc is multilibbed, and we want the PIC
 	version of it for shared libraries, otherwise ld complains

	* demo/dlmain.c (main): add missing const to declaration of name

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): remove the libdir argument, and
	try to  open library only as old_name and dir/dlname
	(lt_dlopen): use `installed' variable in .la file to decide
	whether to use libdir or objdir

	* demo/configure.in (AC_C_CONST): added, for portability
	* mdemo/configure.in (AC_C_CONST): ditto
	* libltdl/configure.in (AC_C_CONST, AC_C_INLINE): ditto
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (LTDL_FILENAME_MAX): use FILENAME_MAX if defined
	(FILENAME_MAX): replace all explicit uses with LTDL_FILENAME_MAX
	(presym_free_symlists, trim): don't return void, for portability
	(lt_dlgetsearchpath): replace (void) with __P((void))

	* ltmain.in (compile): when compiling both PIC and non-PIC, write
 	the PIC object to .libs/.lo and only rename it to .lo after
 	compiling the .o, to avoid fooling make dependencies

	* mdemo/main.c (LTDL_PREOPENED_SYMBOLS): remove

1999-01-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* TODO: Added inter-library deps for ltlibs.

	* THANKS: Added Vladimir Kushnir.

1999-01-20  Vladimir Kushnir  <kushn@mail.kar.net>

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd3*): Define `deplibs_check_method' and
	`file_magic_command' for freebsd-elf.

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* TODO: should we also build a `static' copy of a convenience
 	library out of .o files?

	* ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, netbsd*, uts4*, library_names_spec,
	soname_spec): removed duplicate dot before $major
	Reported by Steven M. Schultz <sms@wlv.iipo.gtegsc.com> (bsdi4*)

	* THANKS: added Manfred Weichel

1999-01-20  Manfred Weichel  <Manfred.Weichel@pdb.siemens.de>

	* ltconfig.in (sysv5*): same as sysv4.3*

1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): properly detect error condition when
	full pathname of non-libtool library is provided

	* libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_preloaded_symbols,
	HAVE_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): test whether we support -dl*open
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (!HAVE_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS, lt_preloaded_symbols):
	define it to an empty list if libtool won't generate it, so as to
	avoid link errors.  This will cause silent dlopening failures, but
	maybe this is better than failing to link the program...

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): remove it; better to
	declare lt_preloaded_symbols
	* doc/libtool.texi (LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): ditto

	* ltmain.in (dlpredeps): removed, reverting 1999-01-17's change

1999-01-19  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (Makefile): depend on libtool

	* ltmain.in (lt_preloaded_setup): function added to symbol list
	source file to work around FreeBSD problem

	* Makefile.am (check-local): depend on libltdl/Makefile

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo_LDFLAGS, mdemo_LDADD): moved -dlopen
	flags to LDADD

1999-01-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
	* ltmain.in (hardcode_action) Oops, misapplied the patch!

	* ltconfig.in (compile_dependencylbs): removed this
	variable and pick up the library dependencies from $deplibs.
	* ltmain.in (compile_dependencylibs): removed this
	variable, use deplibs to hold these dependencies.

	From Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
	* ltmain.in (hardcode_action) make sure deplibs is set to include
	all the	extra libs added to compile_command.

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libtool): use it
	* doc/libtool.texi (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): document it

	* Makefile.am (libltdl.tar.gz): don't create it as part of the
	build, since it is likely to become stale if we do
	(install-data-hook): create and install libltdl.tar.gz, without
	depending on GNU tar
	Reported by Manfred Weichel <Manfred.Weichel@pdb.siemens.de>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am: incremented the version, removed
	  libtool dependency so that it can be build independently
	* libltdl/configure.in: removed LTDL_SHLIB_EXT hack,
	  set version to 1.0, use AM_MAINTAINER_MODE,
	  DLPREOPEN is always supported, check for libtool's objdir variable
	  (LTDL_OBJDIR)
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: some cleanups (moved constants to the beginning
	  of the file and prefixed all of them with LTDL_, minor optimizations
	  in find_file() and find_module()), renamed lt_dlpreopen* to
	  lt_dlpreload* for consistency, removed LTDL_SHLIB_EXT hack,
	  we don't need unistd.h, DLPREOPEN is _always_ supported,
	  reverted Alexandre's lt_dlpreopen_default_ change,
	  try to open the not-installed module before the installed one,
	  replaced lt_dlsearchpath() with lt_dladdsearchdir(),

	  the libtool package directory
	* ltconfig.in: removed $thread_safe_flags from Andrey Slepuhin's

1999-01-17  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (wlarc): set to either '${wl}' or an empty string,
 	depending on whether archive_cmds runs CC or LD
	(gnu_ld=yes, whole_archive_flag_spec): "$wlarc" instead of '${wl}'

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libltdlc.la): depend on
	../libtool, because ../libltdl/libtool depends on it
	(mdemo_debug_*): copy from mdemo_*, adding -static to LDFLAGS

	* ltmain.in (dlpredeps): append dependencies from dlopened modules
	(but not dlpreopened ones) after all explicitly linked libraries

	* ltconfig.in (need_lib_prefix, need_version,
 	deplibs_check_method): default to unknown, so that we're
 	remembered that this needs porting; unknown is interpreted as yes,
 	yes and none, respectively
	(freebsd2*, freebsd3*, sunos4*, need_version): set to yes
	(freebsd2*, freebsd3*, library_names_spec): libraries without a
	version number are not used by `ld'; add $versuffix;
	Reported by Ben Jackson <ben@ben.com>
	* ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method): alias unknown to none
	(need_version): if vinfo was not provided and release info was,
	zero out versuffix only if we don't need_version.
	* doc/libtool.texi: document what `unknown' means

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlpreopen_default): reverted to a macro
	without arguments, that calls lt_dlpreopen_default_ with
	lt_dlpreloaded_symbols
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen_default_): renamed from
	lt_dlpreopen_default
	(find_module) tryall_dlopen old_name first, so that we don't
 	override statically linked symbols with dlopened ones

1999-01-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
	* libtoolize.in (cd $pkgdatadir): Make sure we return the the
	working directory when this is done.

	From Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
	* ltconfig.in (aix): Use shared library support correctly on
	aix4*, and tweak the config for aix3.
	* NEWS: added aix3 and aix4 to list of hosts with improved
	support.
	* THANKS: added Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>.

1999-01-15  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): added a second '$'
	  before abs_scrdir, removed ltconfig and ltmain.sh from
	  EXTRA_DIST (automake distributes them by default)

1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* autogen: moved faking of the libtool scripts before
	  the call of automake, so that ltconfig and ltmain.sh
	  are included in the distribution
	* ltconfig.in: when checking whether PIC is supported assume
	  only on HP/UX that warnings during compilation mean that
	  PIC is not supported (Thanks to Ron O'Hara)
	* THANKS: added Ron O'Hara

1999-01-14  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am: Moved ltconfig and ltmain.sh back into srcdir, and
	add them to the distribution.  Added work-around if `mv -f' fails.
	fix @AINCLUDE_M4_LIST@ and @DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@ for relative and
	absolute specifications of srcdir

1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: added variable symbol prefix, added user-defined
	  library search path (can be set using lt_dlsearchpath()),
	  added default_preloaded_symbols which are independent of
	  lt_dlinit/exit
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: added lt_dlsearchpath() and
	  lt_dlpreopen_default()
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: use -export-dynamic until libtool
	  and libltdl are able to handle module dependencies

1999-01-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* THANKS: added Mark Elbrecht.
	* ltconfig.in (PATH_SEPARATOR): new variable to hold valid $PATH
	separator characters for the build host, to support DJGPP
	environment.
	* ltconfig.in: Use PATH_SEPARATOR instead of hardcoded `:'.
	Reported by Mark Elbrecht <snowball3@usa.net>

	* cdemo/README: typo: mdemo->cdemo

1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* autogen: fake the libtool scripts to help fixing
	  the bootstrapping problem
	* Makefile.am: always configure libltdl, however after building
	  the libtool scripts,
	  build the libtool scripts in builddir, not srcdir
	  (unfortunately this breaks building when srcdir!=objdir,
	   but it was just plain wrong - needs to be fixed),
	  build and install libltdl.tar.gz,
	  copy acinclude.m4 instead of linking them, so that we
	  can 'make dist' in libltdl,
	  fixed configuring of subdirectories
	* configure.in: removed --enable-ltdl-install - libltdl is supposed
	  to be installed by packages, not by libtool itself
	* libtoolize.in: new flags --ltdl and --ltdl-tar to install libltdl
	  in packages (--ltdl doesn't work yet),
	  install only the necessary libtool scripts, not just all
	  files in pkgdatadir
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: removed the rule for libltdl configuration

1999-01-13  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libtool): mkdir and configure
	../libltdl

1999-01-13  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* demo/dlmain.c, libltdl/ltdl.c, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in,
	  doc/libtool.texi: renamed dld_preloaded_symbols to
	  lt_preloaded_symbols, symbol lists are 'const'
	* cdemo/configure.in: don't check for string.h
	* demo/dlmain.c: renamed dld_symlist to lt_symlist,
	  preloaded symbols are 'const', use lt_ptr_t instead of void*
	* demo/foo.h: define lt_ptr_t
	* doc/libtool.texi: document lt_preloaded_symbols correctly
	* libltdl/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed libtest to libltdlc
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: fixed some minor typos, renamed dldpre to presym,
	  bugfix: search in search_path only if we have no directory
	  and a search_path, in lt_dlsym() check whether symbol != 0
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: removed lt_dlpreopen_default()
	* ltconfig.in (dlpreopen): removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count
	* ltmain.in: added help for -avoid-versioning, -export-symbols,
	  -module, add @SYMFILE@ if one of -export-dynamic, -dlopen or
	  -dlpreopen is used
	* mail/deplibs.html: added Gordon Matzigkeit's inter-library
	  dependencies article
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: removed -export-dynamic from LDFLAGS
	  (no longer necessary, since libtool defines lt_preloaded_symbols
	  when -dlopen is used), initialize with lt_preloaded_symbols

1999-01-13  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Test descriptions): cdemo-static works, thanks
	to Edouard Parmelan!

	* THANKS: added Sebastian Wilhelmi

	* ltconfig.in (solaris): define `need_version' to no

1999-01-13  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* ltconfig.in (solaris): Define `deplibs_check_method',
	`file_magic_command', `need_lib_prefix' and `sys_lib_search_path'
	* ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): Add space before matching pattern,
	such that it works on solaris (solaris has a tab between the
	library name (including the colon) and the `ELF' and such the
	`ELF' will never be matched).

1999-01-13  Edouard G. Parmelan  <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>

	* ltconfig.in (NM): PATH search was not updated like in
	libtool.m4, in last Alexandre Oliva's change to it
	(sysv4*, ncr): pass all library dependencies
	* ltmain.in (dependency_libs, -R): use `deplib' instead of `arg' to
	iterate, otherwise we'd overwrite `arg'
	(convenience, old_libs): if --disable-shared, convenience
	libraries are just old archives, as .lo's are of no use
	* tests/cdemo-static.test: print --disable-shared here

1999-01-13  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_shlibext, LTDL_SHLIB_EXT):
	system-dependent extension of shared libraries
	(libltdl_cv_shlibpath_var, LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR): system-dependent
	run-time shared library search path
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (dldpre_init, dldpre_exit): unrelate init/exit
	from add/remove symlists, so one may add dld_preloaded_symbols
	from main(), when only a library will call dldpre_init
	(lt_dlopen): use LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR, if defined, as secondary
	search path.  Also, if a requested .la file cannot be found, try
	with the LTDL_SHLIB_EXTension instead.

	* ltmain.in (old_archives, oldobjs): use find to SYMDEF here too

	* Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): `$' must be doubled

	* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_DIRS): configure only libltdl, and then,
	only if --enable-ltdl-install
	(CONF_SUBDIRS): list directories that are configured on demand,
	but that must be included in the distribution
	(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): generated from CONF_SUBDIRS
	* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): added version 1.3e and
	readme-alpha, to handle README-alpha automatically
	(EXTRA_DIST): removed README-alpha
	(BUILD_SUBDIRS): subdirectories that are always built
	(SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus BUILD_LTDL
	(DIST_SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus CONF_SUBDIRS, from configure
	(all-local, check-local): depend on $(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST), from
	configure, and libtool, so that it is built before subdirs
	(configure-subdirs): new target
	(configure-subdirs, distdir): depend on $(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST),
	from configure
	(@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): create subdir if needed, then run
	configure.
	On-demand configuration of subdirs at distribution time was
	suggested by Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): search for NM in PATH before
	/usr/ccs/bin, /usr/ucb and /bin.  However, if the found one isn't
	BSD-compat keep searching.  If no BSD-compat is found, use the
	first we found.

	* THANKS: added Raffaele Sena

1999-01-13  Raffaele Sena  <raff@aromatic.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: replaced RTDL with RTLD

1999-01-13  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* ltconfig.in (osf3*, osf4*, irix6*): include
	${libname}{release}.so for library_names_spec

1999-01-13  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): added cdemo
	* Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): ditto
	(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): ditto
	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): added cdemo-shared.test
	* tests/cdemo-static.test: disable shared libraries here
	* tests/cdemo-shared.test: disable static libraries here
	* doc/libtool.texi (Test descriptions): added cdemo tests
	* THANKS: added Edouard G. Parmelan

1999-01-13  Edouard G. Parmelan  <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>

	* ltmain.in: fix convenience libraries when static libraries
	are disables.
	* cdemo/README, cdemo/Makefile.am, cdemo/configure.in, cdemo/foo.h,
	cdemo/foo1.c, cdemo/main.c, cdemo/.cvsignore, test/cdemo-conf.test,
	test/cdemo-make.test, test/cdemo-exec.test, test/cdemo-static.test:
	new tests for convenience libraries.
	* autogen, Makefile.am, test/Makefile.am: ditto.

	* ltconfig.in, doc/PLATFORMS: Added support for NCR MP-RAS
	(i586-ncr-sysv4.3*) with native compiler.
	* README, doc/libtool.texi: Added note for NCR MP-RAS compiler.

1999-01-12  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: before using LN_S remove the symlink
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: support multiple symbol lists, moved library-
	  and file searching to separate functions, renamed "preload_libs"
	  to "dl_dependency_libs", set the LT_SYMBOL_OVERHEAD to the correct
	  value (7), fix to support lt_dlsym() for not-libtool modules again,
	  check for invalid handles, when using strdup() check whether
	  it fails
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: declare the lt_dlsymlist type for lt_dlpreopen()
	* mdemo/README: rewritten
	* mdemo/configure.in: check only for math.h (string.h is no longer
	  necessary)

1999-01-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.in (ltdl-install): Fixed up the indentation so that
	`configure --help' is pretty again.

1999-01-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in, NEWS, doc/libtool.texi: Added support for -R flag
	* ltmain.in, doc/libtool.texi: documented that -rpath is the same
	as -R for programs
	* ltmain.in: softened the instructions for linking with installed
	libraries, and noted that libtool can be used to link with them;
	documented that -rpath is not required for convenience libraries

	* ltconfig.in (symxfrm): don't print $pipe_works twice, once for
	each $ac_symprfx
	Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>

	* ltmain.in (convenience, libobjs): get only .o and .lo files from
	the files extract from the convenience library.  Some systems,
	such as FreeBSD2, will add a SYMDEF file, that is not an object
	file, and therefore should not be fed to the linker

	* libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): while we are at it, we may well
	cache the value of ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore

	* libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): need for underscore prefix is now
	auto-detected, by trying first without, then with it.

	* ltconfig.in: ditto

1999-01-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): add libltdl, demo, mdemo and
	depdemo commented out, so that `dist' works before `check'
	(BUILD_LTDL): will contain libltdl if --enable-ltdl-install
	* Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): expand SUBDIRS and add depdemo,
	commented out
	(SUBDIRS): add $(BUILT_LTDL)
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_LTLIBRARIES): add libtest.la, the
	same as libltdl but always a convenience library.  Not built by
	default.  Both libraries now depend on the libtool script, that
	depends on ../libtool and is rebuilt when needed
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo, mdemo.debug): depend on and link with
	../libltdl/libtest.la, that is rebuilt if needed
	(mdemo_LDADD): removed $(LIBADD_M), to avoid silent failures
	(foo1.la): renamed from libfoo1.la; test removing the lib prefix
	* mdemo/foo1.c: renamed libfoo1_LTX symbols to foo1_LTX
	* mdemo/main.c: don't include string.h nor math.h, nor refer to
	sin nor cos
	* tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed libfoo1.la to foo1.la
	* tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (FILENAME_MAX): use it instead of MAX_FILENAME,
	and don't redefine it if already defined; default to 1024, as on
	most systems
	(LT_SYMBOL_LENGTH): renamed from MAX_SYMBOL_LENGTH
	(LT_SYMBOL_OVERHEAD): new macro, that accounts for the size of
	the _LTX_ separator and the initial underscore
	(lt_dlsym): sym now points to a stack buffer (lsym) if possible,
	or is dynamically allocated.  If allocation fails, a
	buffer_overflow_error is returned.

1999-01-10  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: define dld_preloaded_symbols if at least one of
	  -export-dynamic, -dlopen or -dlpreopen was specified,
	  do not include program objects in the symbol list
	  if -export-dynamic was not enabled
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: limit symbols to max. 256 bytes
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: build libltdl in a subdirectory,
	  do not use -export-dynamic for mdemo and mdemo.debug
	* tests/mdemo-conf.test,tests/mdemo-make.test,tests/mdemo-inst.test:
	  do not check for libltdl

1999-01-09  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): missing strlen in bound test

1999-01-09  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: support for BSD/OS 4.x was not documented
	* demo/Makefile.am: link against libm only if available
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: likewise, use -avoid-versioning flag
	  instead of -avoid-version (typo)
	* demo/configure.in: check for libm, string.h and math.h
	* mdemo/configure.in: likewise
	* depdemo/configure.in: check for libm and math.h
	* libltdl/configure.in: check for dlerror
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: check for buffer overflows, implemented
	  dlerror, fixed a severe bug which occured when opening
	  non-libtool modules, dlopen with the flags GLOBAL and NOW
	* mdemo/main.c: report the error using lt_dlerror()

1999-01-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_new_commands): Documented
	this ltcofig variable.

1999-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.sh (cygwin, allow_undefined): Unfortunately, there are
	problems with this variable when trying to make a dll which has
	undefined symbols, in which case not even a static library is
	built.  For now, we need to specify -no-undefined on the libtool
	link line when we can be certain that all symbols are satisfied,
	otherwise we get a static library.

1999-01-06  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ChangeLog: merged in tests/ChangeLog
	* tests/ChangeLog: deleted
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: assigned copyright to the FSF
	* libltdl/ltdl.h, mdemo/foo*,main.c: likewise

1999-01-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): add absolute directory paths to
	dllsearchpath so that the wrapper scripts can be called from any
	directory (e.g. tests) on cygwin.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): revert Alexandre's
	change from yesterday to use `-dll.a' suffix.  That change caused
	$libname-dll.a to be a symlink to $soname, which isn't even an
	`ar' archive.  Before the import library suffix can be changed, we
	need to figure out how to handle building objects differently for
	linking with an import library versus an equivalent static library.

	* TODO: Added details of a Linux wrapper script bug.
	Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>.

1999-01-05  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (libobjs_save, oldobjs): when building an
	old-fashioned archive, use a copy of libobjs saved before
	convenience libraries are appended

	* libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXPORT, _LTDLL_IMPORT): use cygwin or
	unix library import/export primitives; this may be convenient for
	people willing to create DLLs
	(_LTDLL_EXTERN): select _LTDLL_EXPORT or _LTDLL_IMPORT depending
	on _LTDL_COMPILE_
	* libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen): new function,
	that replaces the current preloaded_symbols list with its
	argument, and returns the old value, initially NULL
	(dldpre_init): don't refer to dld_preloaded_symbols any more
	(dldpre_open, dldpre_sym): search preloaded_symbols
	(lt_dlpreopen_default): call lt_dlpreopen with
	dld_preloaded_symbols, that is declared as extern; it should be
	called from the main program or from some static library without
	-no-undefined
	(lt_dlerror): new function, that returns the error message for the
	last error occurred; the error message is kept in the static
	variable last_error
	* libltdl/configure.in (enable-ltdl-install): moved back from
	enable-install; other packages might use enable-install already,
	better have fine grained control over this.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdls.la): discarded

1999-01-05  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* configure.in: do not configure libltdl by default
	* Makefile.am: do not build libltdl by default
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: ltdls.lo depends on libtool
	* tests/Makefile.am: before starting the tests
	  make sure that libtool was build
	* tests/mdemo-conf.test: configure libltdl
	* tests/mdemo-make.test: build libltdl

1999-01-05  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): Don't delete empty lines, as this
	would lose for files with embedded blanks.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): Moved
	ltdll.c into ltmain.in, to avoid its duplication, and added a sed
	script to extract it.  Also, create def and base files in $objdir,
	and don't remove them after the compilation.
	(cygwin, library_names_spec): Create static part of the dll with
	suffix -dll.a, to avoid conflicts with actual static libraries.
	* ltmain.in: Added ltdll.c, as commented out text

1999-01-01  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: new BeOS support
	* THANKS: added Joseph Beckenbach
	* libltdl/ltdl.h: use dllimport/export on Win32

1998-12-31  Joseph Beckenbach III <jrb3@best.com>

	* ltconfig.in: added support for BeOS
	* ltmain.in (shlibpath_var): added a workaround for
	  an odd bug in the BeOS R4 sed

1998-12-31  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* verified all copyright notices
	  and updated them to 1999
	* TODO: added some things that need to documented
	* doc/libtool.texi: -export-symbols is not
	  supported on all platforms
	* doc/PLATFORMS: added a few new platforms

1998-12-30  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: updated
	* THANKS: added Todd Vierling <tv@pobox.com>

1998-12-30  Todd Vierling  <tv@pobox.com>

	* ltconfig.in: improved shared object handling on both
	  a.out and ELF platforms for NetBSD

1998-12-29  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: do not rely on a leading space when concatenating
	  variables as suggested by Erez Zadok
	* ltmain.in: likewise
	* doc/PLATFORMS: updated and reformatted
	  (thanks to Erez Zadok for the testing)

1998-12-27  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* THANKS: added Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>

1998-12-26  Erez Zadok  <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: support i486-ncr-sysv4.3.03
	shared libraries.

	* ltmain.in: before every ln -s, remove the link name

1998-12-25  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* depdemo/configure.in: removed last relics of demo
	* depdemo/sysdep.h: ditto
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: ditto
	* libltdl/Makefile.am: fixed the version number, build libltdls if
	  -enable-install and -enable-dlpreopen are enabled
	* libltdl/configure.in: libltdl is version 0.1, not 1.0,
	  renamed -enable-ltdl-install to -enable-install,
	  conditionals for libltdls, check for strchr and index,
	  replaced NULL with 0
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: replaced NULL with 0, dlpreopen only if
	  USE_DLPREOPEN was defined, integrated shl_load code from GModule
	  (still untested)

1998-12-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.in: fixup spacing in --enable-ltdl-install
	help string so that it lines up nicely for configure --help.

	* ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): keep track of what the dll search path
	will need to be in the wrapper scripts as deplibs are calculated.
	Make sure the wrapper script doesn't end in `.exr', which makes
	win32 try to execute it as a binary!
	Add the contents of dllsearchpath to $PATH in the wrapper script.
	Use the relative path to the wrapped program so that the dll
	search path is calculated properly by win32 OSes.
	* TODO: removed the item for making wrapper scripts work on win32.

	* TODO: removed the reference to making libltdl and demo work on
	win32.  They *do* work now that wrapper scripts are functioning.

	* ltmain.in (file_magic_command): It turns out that if the
	file_magic_command generates huge output (e.g. running `objdump
	-f' over a large import lib [say libX11.a]) the expr to check it
	against the file_magic_regex blows up.  There is now an optimistic
	heuristic, to save only the first 10 lines of running
	file_magic_command which (at risk of sounding like Bill) should be
	enough for anyone =)O|.

	* ltmain.in: Set the compile_dependencylibs and	dllsearchpath for
	non-libtool libs, or else libdeps only works between ltlibs for
	cygwin32.

1998-12-23  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): use `tr' magic to avoid passing very
	long lines to sed
	* doc/libtool.texi (sed): very long lines are no longer a problem

	* libltdl/Makefile.am: install libltdl conditionally...
	* libltdl/configure.in: ... if --enable-ltdl-install is issued
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: removed #ifdef DEBUG
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo_debug_LDADD, mdemo_debug_DEPENDENCIES):
	use libltdl.la

1998-12-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: added my cygwin32 box (i686-pc-cygwin32).

	* TODO: remind myself of the win32 tasks remaining.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds,
	old_archive_from_new_cmds): Fixed a bug which left an a.exe in the
	build directory.  Fixed a bug where $soname-def was never deleted.

	* ltconfig.in (file_magic_command): new variable holds the command
	(including any args) to run to generate the string to match
	against the regex in $file_magic.  Use the variable where
	necessary. Added to libtool header output.
	(deplibs_check_method): use file_magic for win32, but compare the
	output of `objdump -f' with the regex (see below).
	(archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): use compile_dependencylibs for
	each $CC invokation (see below).

	* ltmain.in: Set allow_undefined to `no' for win32 variants by
	default, otherwise it is impossible to link a dll without forcing
	the makefile maintainer to figure out whether to pass
	--no-undefined at every libtool invokation.
	(compile_dependencylibs): save the list of dependency library
	flags needed for a deplib build on win32.
	(link_against_libtool_libs): commented out the check for this;  if
	it is left in, then ltlibs (i.e. *.la files) cannot be deplibs for
	subsequent links.
	Don't add -lc to the deplibs line for win32 platforms (which don't
	have a libc as such).
	(file_magic_command): use this to get some output to compare with
	the file_magic regex (instead of hardcoding `file' which doesn't
	exist on win32.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): Updated
	to document the changes above.

	* ltconfig.in (deplibs_check_method): Changed the file_magic regex
	to match more linux variants.  This is less lenient than Thomas
	Tanner's commit to fix the same problem below.
	Reported by Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>
	* THANKS: added Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>

1998-12-23  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: fixed file-magic for Linux shared libraries
	* ltmain.in: removed the unused -force-static flag
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: added strchr, search modules in LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH,
	  check whether actual module was already dlopened,
	  read in preload_libs rather than dependency_libs

1998-12-23  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am: build two versions of libltdl:
	  libltdl (support native dlopen if available, otherwise dlpreopen),
	  libltdls (like libltdl, but always support for dlpreopen)
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: ditto
	* libltdl/configure.in: warn if dlopen is not supported
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo.debug): use libltdls

1998-12-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: revert Thomas Tanners change to create all
	libraries without the `lib' prefix on win32, otherwise `gcc foo.c
	-lbar' can't find libbar.a.

1998-12-22  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): prepend `.' to avoid am-recursive
	dependency hack

1998-12-21  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: indentation is now 8 character wide tabs
	* ltmain.in: ditto
	* ChangeLog: ditto
	* ltmain.in: renamed check_shared_deplibs_method to
	  deplibs_check_method (we_dont_want_too_long_variable_names :)
	* doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): ditto
	* depdemo/.cvsignore: renamed hell* to depdemo*, added *.lo,*.la
	* mdemo/.cvsignore: ditto

1998-12-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): apparently  __ptr_t is predefined
	on some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead.
	* ltconfig.in: ditto.
	* ltmain.in: ditto.

	* libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): use an AC_SUBST to pass
	the result of this into the compile rather than AC_DEFINE which
	breaks when building with older versions of autoconf.
	* ltconfig.in (symxfrm): Don't put the leading underscore back
	with the global_symbol_pipe.
	* demo/dlmain.c (main): No need to specialcase underscores in
	dld_preloaded_symbols - it is fixed by symxfrm above!
	* libltdl/configure.in: use AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE from
	libtool.m4 rather than reinvent the wheel here =)O|

	* ltmain.in:  Fix deplibs methods to not rely on a.out (cygwin
	uses a.exe!).

	* libltdl/configure.in: Cleanups - fix header comment and emacs
	local-vars.

	* demo/dlmain.c (win32_force_data_import_address): a nasty hack
	to force the address of imported data symbols into
	dld_preloaded_symbols on win32, which does data imports
	differently to function imports (sheesh!).  This functionality
	needs to be moved into the dld_preloaded_symbols generation code.
	demo/helldl with static linking is broken on win32 by this change,
	probably until after libtool-1.3 =(O|
	* demo/foo.h: make sure __CYGWIN32__ is always defined on cygwin32
	systems.  Use the correct __declspec macro for lib exports/imports
	on cygwin32.
	* demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c: Make sure we tell foo.h that these
	sources are inside libfoo, and want to export symbols.

1998-12-20  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* autogen: configure demo, depdemo, libltdl and mdemo
	* tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed hell* to mdemo*
	* tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto

1998-12-19  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am: build a normal libtool library
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: get LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH but don't make use of it yet,
	  some reformatting
	* ltmain.in: fixed a bug which listed symbols in
	  dld_preloaded_symbols twice
	* TODO: removed symbol export lists and deplibs

1998-12-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: added need_lib_prefix and need_version,
	  which determine whether we must prefix modules with 'lib'
	  and whether versioning is required for libraries.
	* ltmain.in: allow modules names without 'lib' prefix,
	  new -avoid-versioning option
	* doc/libtool.texi (link flags): updated documentation for -module,
	  added -avoid-versioning
	* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents):
	  documented the two new flags and archive_sym_cmds
	* doc/libtool.texi (tests):
	  added (partially very short) documentation for assign.test,
	  nomode.test, quote.test, sh.test
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: canonicalize module names,
	  some cleanups and bugfixes,  __ptr_t is predefined on
	  some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead
	* mdemo/: renamed hell* to mdemo* (hell is already used in
	  demo), updated the documentation, import sin and cos in main
	  program rather than linking libfoo1 statically

1998-12-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Added AC_PREREQ(2.12) to prevent
	people using libtool with old autoconfs that don't provide the
	features we need.

1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2e for CVS

	* NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2d for release

	* Makefile.am (cvs-dist): our release tags are in lower case
	(cvs-diff): ditto
	(EXTRA_DIST): added README-alpha
	* README-alpha: minor adaptations
	* demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am, depdemo/Makefile.am:
	removed comment about special needs for distribution
	* depdemo/Makefile.am: don't generate dependencies
	* depdemo/configure.in: modified version number

	* ltmain.in (-force-static, force_static): removed
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (CFLAGS): ditto
	* libltdl/configure.in: check for memory.h, rindex() and
	dlpreopening.  Fixed NEED_USCORE caching policy.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsym): make the name argument const
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (types): new variable: head of list of available
	dlopening mechanisms
	(lt_dltype_t): interface of a dlopening mechanism, with pointers
	to functions for init, exit, open, close and sym
	(lt_dlhandle_t): added pointer to interface type
	(strdup): don't name it strdup; it can be troublesome
	(strrchr): ditto; use rindex if available
	(LIBTOOL_STATIC): check HAVE_DLPREOPEN instead, and move to the
	end of the file, so that it becomes the header of the list
	(all): renamed all interface-implementation functions, to avoid
	name clashes, and created lt_dltype_t nodes for all of them
	(lt_dlinit): initialize all available interfaces; remove those
	that fail from the list.  Return failure only if no interfaces
	could be initialized.
	(lt_dlexit): return number of failures
	(tryall_dlopen): try to open the library with all available
	interfaces
	(lt_dlopen): use tryall_dlopen; increased size of fixed buffers.
	We should probably make these bound-checked or dynamically
	allocated for the final release!  Fix bug when filename did not
	contain slashes; should we check for `\\' too?  Try old_library if
	everything else fails.
	(lt_dlclose): use the interface type for closing
	(lt_dlsym): make `symbol' const, use interface type for looking up
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: moved mdemo/modules/* back into mdemo
	(SUBDIRS): removed
	(libfoo2_la_LDFLAGS): added -static; nice test.  However, since it
	causes -lm to linked into hell*, it causes tests that should fail
	to pass
	(noinst_HEADERS): no need to install foo.h
	* mdemo/configure.in: remove modules/Makefile
	tests/mdemo-exec.test: updated accordingly

	* NEWS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan to the list of new
	maintainers.  Detailed expected failures of libltdl+mdemo.  Listed
	recent ports.  Added full URL for the home page.  Note that
	libtool C program is unusable.

1998-12-16  Bruno Haible  <haible@ilog.fr>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Tested platforms): broken `sed' programs

1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* THANKS: added Stephan Kulow; removed Gary V. Vaughan and Thomas
	Tanner, now that they're AUTHORS

1998-12-16  Stephan Kulow  <coolo@kde.org>

	* ltmain.in (freebsd-aout, freebsd-elf): added missing dot to
	versuffix

1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): removed, nothing needed
	(libtool): automatically update

	* libltdl/configure.in (stdlib.h, unistd.h, stdio.h): check
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: include them

	* demo/configure.in (BINARY_HELLDL): test whether dlopen is
	supported at configure time
	* demo/Makefile.am (helldl): use automake conditionals to build
	helldl as a script or as a binary program

	* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): remove ltdl-*.test
	(clean-local): don't clean libltdl any more
	* tests/ltdl-conf.test: removed
	* tests/ltdl-inst.test: ditto
	* tests/ltdl-make.test: ditto
	* tests/ltdl-unst.test: ditto
	* tests/mdemo-make.test: updated accordingly
	* tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto
	* tests/mdemo-unst.test: ditto
	* doc/libtool.texi: ditto

	* ltmain.in (-DSTATIC): changed to -DLIBTOOL_STATIC, and defined
	only for -force-static; it should be removed soon, before people
	start to use it

	* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): added libltdl
	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): build libltdl by default
	(DIST_SUBDIRS): simplify distribution of demo and mdemo
	(libtool, clibtool, libtoolize, ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add
	srcdir where appropriate
	(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): new rule for maintaining links from
	acinclude.m4 to libtool.m4
	(*demo/Makefile.in): don't update autoconf/automake files any
	more; make check is needed

1998-12-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): tweaked for cygwin b18->b20.1
	compatibility and fixed a bug with generating the export
	definitions file.  This is only tested on b20.1, but should
	work back to b18 at least.

1998-12-11  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: -module implies now -export-dynamic,
	  dlpreopen files if we're linking statically
	* doc/libtool.texi (link flags): added documentation for -module
	  and the tests for mdemo and libltdl
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: replaced -dlpreopen with -dlopen

1998-12-09  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* PORTING: removed the text Akim Demaille converted to .texi

1998-12-09  Akim Demaille  <demaille@inf.enst.fr>

	* doc/libtool.texi: converted inter-library dependencies
	instructions from PORTING

1998-12-09  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (convenience, deplibs): propagate dependencies
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): don't install ltdl.h yet
	(noinst_LTLIBRARIES): ditto for libltdl.la

1998-12-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* README-alpha: adapted the release procedure from
	  automake/HACKING.
	* Makefile.am: adapted the cvs-dist and cvs-diff rules from
	  automake/Makefile.am.  I guess this is probably safe to use
	  already, but I didn't test it as it tags the CVS tree.  If
	  it needs tweaking, we'll find out come 1.2d.

1998-12-08  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: fixed some typos in archive_sym_cmds
	* ltmain.in: replaced basename with a sed expression

1998-12-07  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* configure.in: we no longer use PRCS

	* doc/libtool.texi (author): listed all the AUTHORS
	(Dlopen issues): added reference to libltdl, still undocumented
	(C++ libraries): it's not *that* simple, after all :-(
	(Inter-library dependencies): they're back!

1998-12-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore): `test a == b' doesn't
	work, use `test a = b' instead

	* Makefile.am (mdemo_distfiles): libfoo[12].sym no longer exist

	* ltconfig.in (solaris): do not use $CC for linking if GNU ld is
	not available

1998-12-04  Manfred Weichel  <Manfred.Weichel@pdb.siemens.de>

	* ltconfig.in: Port to SCO UnixWare 7.x.

1998-12-03  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ChangeLog: converted CR/LF back to CR format
	* ltconfig.in: new variable sys_lib_search_path for searching
	of installed libraries, export archive_sym_cmds and
	sys_lib_search_path
	* ltmain.in: use sys_lib_search_path, removed extradeplibs
	(they're not portable)

1998-12-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.in: look for string.h or else strings.h, and
	also check for ANSI strrchr() function.  Fix `undescore before
	symbols' macro to not rely on a.out (cygwin uses a.exe!).  Fix
	`underscore for dlsym' to set cache variable properly, not just in
	environment of AC_DEFINE(NEED_USCORE).
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (__ptr_t): for K&R compatibility using char*.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strrchr): fallback function incase none is
	defined in libc.
	(trim, ltdlopen): replace rindex with ANSI strrchr.
	Add static function declarations so that we get type checking with
	ANSI compilers.  Use __ptr_t instead of void*.

1998-12-01  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltconfig.in: added -export-symbols support for GNU ld and
	Solaris (untested), archive_sym_cmds for -export-symbols
	* doc/libtool.texi, ltmain.in: -export-symbols is now
	independent from -export-dynamic and does not work for modules
	anymore
	* ltmain.in: added some checks for -export-symbols
	* mdemo/modules/Makefile.am: replaced -export-symbols with
	-export-dynamic since it doesn't work for modules

1998-12-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* README: Updated homepage pointer to gnu libtool page.

	* ltconfig.in (ltdll.c): update the ltdll.c file for cygwinb20.
	Based on code from Mumit Khan <khan@xraylith.wisc.edu>.
	(archive_cmds): correct typo libtool.c->ltdll.c.  Update shell
	commands for cygwin32.

	* libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): New macro; find out
	whether compiled symbols have an extra leading underscore.
	(AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): New macro (converted to m4 from ltconfig.in);
	find a sed expression to parse global symbols from the output of
	$NM.
	(AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): require AM_SYS_NM_PARSE and
	AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE.
	* demo/dlmain.c (main): Remove a single	leading underscore from
	compiled symbol names if necessary.

1998-12-01  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* config.guess, config.sub: imported from autoconf pre-2.13

1998-11-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool (AM_PROG_LD): Oops... we need to know the host_os for
	the changes below.  I'm not sure whether mingw32 and os2 support
	UNC paths, if they did we wouldn't need the check, we could use
	UNC paths on all three; or if the bug with $LD not being
	shell-meta escaped was fixed, we could use '\\' separators on all
	three. AC_REQUIRE'ed AC_CANONICAL_HOST.

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Cannonicalize the absolute path for the
	ld program;  The order is funny to provide canonicalization to
	paths with '\\' separators as well as '/'.
	* ltconfig.in: ditto.

	* AUTHORS: Added myself as a co-maintainer.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): The `;\' in a compound statement is
	expanded wrongly for cygwin32, mingw32, aix3 and aix4. Changed to
	`;'.

1998-11-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

1998-11-24  David Heine  <dlheine@truffle.Stanford.EDU>

	* ltmain.in (pass_all): actively pass the flags

1998-11-24  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* depdemo: added inter-library dependencies demo (doesn't work yet!)
	* AUTHORS: added myself to the list of maintainers

1998-11-22  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl: added support for .la files, LGPL license,
	K&R compatibility, some API changes and bugfixes
	* ltmain.in: renamed -module flag (for compiling) to -force-static,
	define -DSTATIC when compiling static .o files,
	do not include directories in dld_preloaded_symbols
	* mdemo: modified mdemo to work with the new libltdl
	* tests/mdemo-exec.test, tests/mdemo-inst.test: use .la files

1998-11-21  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c: replace NULL with 0, so that we don't depend on
	header files defining it.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, osf3, osf4, solaris, sunos4): create
	libraries with gcc -shared if using gcc without GNU ld.

	* ltconfig.in: replaced occurrences of solaris2 with solaris, to
	prepare for Solaris 7

1998-11-19  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* mdemo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): -dlpreopen -> -dlopen
	(hell_LDFLAGS): added -export-dynamic and -dlopen
	(SUBDIRS, INCLUDES): added modules directory
	(foo1.c, foo2.c, foo.h, libfoo1.sym, libfoo2.sym): moved to modules
	* Makefile.am: ditto
	* tests/mdemo-exec.test, tests/mdemo-inst.test: libraries moved
	* mdemo/modules/Makefile.am: new file

	* */Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): added no-dependencies

	* ltmain.in: missing `test' between `&&' and `"$module"'

	* ltconfig.in (echo_test_string): the whole ltconfig script was
	too much for DU4.0's ksh, but the first 50 lines will be enough.

	* ltmain.in (installed): new variable defined within a .la file,
	so that libtool can now link already-installed libraries into a
	program.
	* NEWS: ditto
	* doc/libtool.texi (Linking executables): document it

	* ltmain.in (output_objdir): compute it from $output, not $arg

	* tests/mdemo-inst.test (libltdl): install it
	* tests/mdemo-unst.test (libltdl): uninstall it
	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): list ltdl-unst.test before mdemo-conf.test

1998-11-18  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* NEWS: -module and libltdl
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: ../libltdl is within $(srcdir)

1998-11-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* libltdl, Makefile.am: added libltdl (a system independent
	dlopen wrapper library extracted from mdemo)
	* ltmain.in: added -module flag for compiling and linking of
	modules. If enabled it compiles always both .o (with -DLT_RENAME)
	and .lo files
	* mdemo: modified mdemo to work with libltdl
	* tests/ltdl*: added tests for libltdl

1998-11-16  Steve Price  <sprice@hiwaay.net>

	* ltconfig.in: when $host_os is freebsd[23]* determine whether
	the current linker format is a.out or ELF
	* ltmain.in: add two new $version_type's, freebsd-aout and
	freebsd-elf, to support above change

1998-11-16  Stephan Kulow  <coolo@kde.org>

	* ltconfig.in: extent no_builtin_flag to contain -fno-rtti and
	-fno-exceptions in case we compile with a gcc, that supports
	this options (egcs and gcc >= 2.8)

1998-11-16  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (C_compiler): copy $CC before it is overwritten with
	command-line compiler, so that we can use it to compile C sources
	generated during the build.  This fixes the problem that showed up
	with -export-dynamic of C++ programs in egcs 1.1.
	* NEWS: ditto

1998-11-12  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* PORTING: Porting instructions are in the libtool manual already

	* NEWS: Mention -export-symbols and new dlpreopen

1998-11-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (IFS): revert Gary's patch when parsing version
	information; we still use `:' here :-)

	* NEWS: updated
	* PORTING: new file, with general instructions and inter-library
	dependencies tips

1998-11-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: make use of '~' field separator in reload_cmds,
	old_archive_from_new_cmds, old_archive_cmds, archive_cmds,
	old_postinstall_cmds, postinstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds,
	postuninstall_cmds and finish_cmds, so that the semi-colons inside
	if/then/else/fi and for/do/done etc. do not break the eval loop in
	ltmain.in (below).
	* ltmain.in: changed all of the eval loops to use an IFS of `~',
	to allow differentiation between the end-of-statement-;
	(now `~' is used) and end-of-substatement-; (still `;').  This
	fixes AIX and win32 at least.

1998-11-11  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (sunos*, sympat, symxfrm): remove underscore
	prepended by the compiler

	* ltmain.in (link): Make the relink warning less harsh.

1998-11-07  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds

1998-11-07  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: add --falback-echo, to be used if everything else
	fails.  The tests now check the behavior of $echo for very large
	strings, because some echo commands would just core dump (e.g.,
	Solaris' printf).  If too large strings fail, smaller ones are
	tested.
	(ltecho): arrange that, if the --fallback-echo method is selected,
	echo will be defined in the libtool script so as to re-run itself,
	not ltconfig
	* ltmain.in: add --fallback-echo
	(qecho) ensure that, if --falback-echo is being used, qecho is
	defined with the full pathname of the libtool script

	* tests/sh.test (test X): ensure that the double-quote supposed to be
	reported is really reported

1998-11-07  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* mdemo/main.c: removed hardcoded library names; link against -lm
	* tests/mdemo-exec, tests/mdemo-inst: pass the library names
	to the program

	* README: Added DG/UX
	* doc/PLATFORMS: ditto

1998-11-04  Michael Tiemann  <tiemann@cygnus.com>

1998-11-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* demo/configure.in: added AC_EXEEXT macro so that the tests can
	work on cywin32/mingw32 hosts.  This requires the current CVS
	autoconf

1998-11-04  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: New flag -export-symbols; new dlpreopen system
	* demo/dlmain.c: removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count

	appears more than once in the list of library names.

1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Add objext and libext variables.  Check for object
	suffix.  Check for mingw32* as well as cygwin32*.  Use objext when
	testing compiler.  Add support for Visual C++ on cygwin32 when not
	using gcc.  Add objext, libext, and fix_srcfile_path to generated
	libtool script.
	* ltmain.in: Use .${objext} rather than .o.  Use fix_srcfile_path
	if it is set.  Check for .obj as well as for .o, and for .lib as
	well as for .a.  Use .${libext} rather than .a when creating old
	libraries.
	* libtoolize.in: Change initial /bin/sh to @SHELL@.
	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add AC_REQUIRE for
	AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, so that autoconf doesn't get mixed up by the
	AC_REQUIRE in AC_CHECK_TOOL.

1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in
	archive_cmds for cygwin32.

1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Fix cygwin32 support to avoid using a double
	extension, to delete the def file, to set version_type to windows,
	and to include versuffix in the DLL name.

	* libtool.m4 (sco): fix typo

1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: On AIX, don't treat GNU ld specially.

1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): Revert Ian's patch for
	ltconfig.in.  Although -L hardcoding is not used with GNU ld, it
	does happen, so hardcode_minus_L must be set to yes.

	* ltconfig.in (compiler_o_lo): check whether we can write directly
	to a .lo

	* ltmain.in (compiler_o_lo): if not, write to .o and rename it

1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: For sunos4 using GNU ld, set hardcode_minus_L to
	no.
	* ltmain.in: Add some hacks to make SunOS --enable-shared work
	when using GNU ld.

1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* THANKS: Added Marc J. Fraioli

1998-11-04  Marc J. Fraioli  <fraioli@dg-rtp.dg.com>

	* ltconfig.in (dgux): new supported platforms

1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (need_locks): if neither `-c -o' nor hard links are
	available, fallback to not so safe mechanism, by setting
	need_locks to warn
	* ltmain.in (need_locks): when need_locks is set to warn, use the
	lockfile to try to fail in case of incorrect concurrent builds

	* THANKS: Added Eric Estievenart

1998-11-04  Eric Estievenart  <eric@via.ecp.fr>

	* doc/libtool.texi (Compile mode): Document that -o is fully
	supported.

	* libtool.m4 (libtool-lock): new ARG_ENABLE; sets (need_locks)
	* ltconfig.in (disable-lock): control need_locks
	(hard_links): check whether hard-links can be used for locking
	* ltmain.in (need_locks): use $output_obj.lock for locking

1998-11-03  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in: correctly create libraries and programs with
	directory components in their names

1998-11-03  Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>

	* ltmain.in (output_obj): typo

1998-11-02  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: For sunos4, add ${libname}.so$versuffix to
	library_names_spec.
	* ltmain.in: For version_type of sunos, set versuffix even if
	-version-info was not used.

1998-11-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory
	components

1998-11-02  Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>

	* ltconfig.in (compiler): detect if the compiler supports
	-c and -o flags, create a variable compiler_c_o. Also issue
	a big warning if it is not supported

	* ltmain.in (compile): enable the -o option as input for libtool.
	The objects are not moved if the compiler supports -o with -c.
	Sources and objects can contain relative directories.
	(link): enable the linking of executables into relative directories

1998-11-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* AUTHORS: added myself as a co-maintainer
	* THANKS: and removed my name from here

	* autogen: new script; run it to bootstrap libtool after checking
	it out from CVS

	* libtool.m4 (CFLAGS): check whether -belf is needed on SCO, as
	suggested by Robert Lipe <robertl@dgii.com>

1998-10-31  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@trick.fig.org>

	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-libpath): Use parameters from the libtool
	in the top build directory, since the one in the demo directory is
	not guaranteed to exist.

1998-10-27  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* demo/Makefile.am (objdir): there are no longer quotes around
	objdir in the libtool script

1998-10-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@trick.fig.org>

	* ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Echo the result to fd 6, so that
	--silent works correctly.  From William M. Perry.

1998-09-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@trick.fig.org>

	* ltmain.in (link): Fix problems when building only static
	libraries.  From Owen Taylor.

1998-08-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@trick.fig.org>

	* ltmain.in (install): When library_names_spec has redundancies,
	avoid deleting the main library when installing symlinks.  From
	Jeff Dairiki.
	(link): Get rid of backticks in a here doc comment.
	This causes segfaults on Solaris 2.  From Aleksandar Bakic.
	(finish): Don't display messages

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): On HP-UX 9, make sure we don't try
	to move a file to itself.  From Jeff Dairiki.

1998-08-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@trick.fig.org>

	* ltconfig.in: Make changes to accomodate ltmain.c.

	* Makefile.am (clibtool): New target for the C version of libtool.

	* ltmain.c: Experimental C version of libtool.

1998-07-10  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	S. Maier.

Thu May 28 18:59:08 1998  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL when invoking shell scripts.

1998-05-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool
	libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'
	files exist.  Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.

1998-05-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the
	wrapper script.
	Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again.  If people
	want to shoot themselves in the foot, I'd better let them do so,
	so that people who are smart enough not to can squeeze out another
	ounce of functionality.  From Tim Janik.
	(version_vars): Delete dead variable.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't hardcode, at
	last.  Reported by Jason Nordwick.

	* libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change a bunch of `if

	execute mode.  From Pavel Kankovsky.

1998-05-07  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Don't use .$versuffix or .$major.  Instead, assume
	the variable will include any required prefix.
	* ltmain.in: If no -version-info option was used, produce empty
	version strings rather than 0.0.0.  When making library symlinks,
	avoid making a symlink if the name would be the same.

1998-04-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (link): Support `unsupported' as a hardcode_action.
	Reported by Lars Hecking.
	(lib_linked): Do some sanity checking to make sure that we
	actually do link libtool libraries into the program to prevent the
	above problem from happening again.

1998-04-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.
	Reported by Lars Hecking.

1998-04-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* Makefile.am (maintainer-rekey): New rule to force us to change
	Project-Version after we make a release.  This keeps all version
	numbers in sync, rather than branching just before the release.
	(maintainer-release, maintainer-checkin): Use maintainer-rekey.

	* ltmain.in (finish): Notice when a finish command fails, so that
	we can add it to the list of recommendations.

1998-04-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Append file descriptor 5 to
	config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that
	ltconfig put there.  From David Taylor.

1998-04-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$CC -shared' when
	configuring for GCC under irix5 and irix6.  From Wolfram Gloger.
	(ofile): Add `--output' flag to change the name of the generated
	libtool.  Suggested by Wolfram Gloger.

1998-04-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: Remove all hardcoded references to ltmain.in in
	favour of $PACKAGE and $PROGRAM.
	(install): Compute the installation name for programs, in case we
	install a relinked file which has a different name.  Reported by
	Pieter Schoenmakers.

	* ltconfig.in (echo): Try using the ksh(1) `print -r' builtin
	command, before reverting to printf(1).

	* Makefile.am (libtool): Use $(SHELL) when invoking ltconfig.

	* ltconfig.in (echo): Rewrite the test for a working echo so that
	we win on Solaris by avoiding printf(1), if possible.

1998-04-13  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_NM): Don't override NM in the environment.

1998-04-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: New `--config' flag to print out all configured
	variables.

	* libtool.m4: Pass ltconfig the undocumented --no-reexec flag,
	since we call it explicitly using CONFIG_SHELL.

	* ltconfig.in: Restart the script under a different shell if
	CONFIG_SHELL is not /bin/sh.  This way, people can use Bash if
	they don't have a working echo program.

	* ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL instead of /bin/sh when
	generating executable scripts.

	* libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Implement the `--debug'
	flag to begin shell tracing.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Don't use `gcc -shared', even if we
	have GNU ld.  Reported by Robert S. Maier.

1998-04-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Create more than just a null C file, so
	that the SunPRO 4.2 cc doesn't complain.  From Bob Friesenhahn.
	(gnu_ld_acts_native): Delete this variable.  There is just too
	much version skew to try to pretend GNU ld is the same as the
	system ld.  Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
	(hardcode_action): Don't bother relinking or aborting on systems
	that are too dynamic to have a consistent hardcode method.
	Reported by Doug Winterburn.

1998-03-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* doc/libtool.texi: A little proofreading.  From Albert
	Chin-A-Young.

1998-03-23  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Treat HP-UX 11 just like HP-UX 10.  From Jeff Law.

1998-03-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	would still print out the reload flag.  From Stephan Kulow.

1998-03-20  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* libtool.m4: Use changequote to avoid problems with square
	bracket patterns.

1998-03-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* Release 1.2.

1998-03-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: Rearrange some of the echos to make them more
	consistent.

1998-03-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: Break up an echo command that causes Solaris printf
	to dump core.  Apparently the Solaris people hardcoded a 2110-byte
	buffer into their printf(1).  Feh.  From John Judge.

1998-03-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Change the test for the PIC compiler flag so that
	we assume it doesn't work if there are any warning messages.  This
	fixes a bug using old GCC's on HP-UX.  Reported by Akim Demaille.

1998-03-10  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create
	a file ltconfig in the build directory.

1998-03-09  Andreas Schwab  <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>

	* ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,
	replacing foo=`eval \\$echo \"$mumble\"` by eval foo=\"$mumble\".

	(link): Use ${1+"$@"} in wrapper scripts in order to pass
	arguments safely to a program.

	* ltconfig.in: Use -fpic instead of -fPIC if $host_cpu matches
	m68*.

1998-03-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* Release 1.1.

	* ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently
	they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that
	replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$echo "..."' improves libtool's
	speed by a factor of 5.  So, I've eliminated here docs from the
	all-important ltmain.in.  From Tom Lane.

	* tests/tlibtool: Eliminate from distribution.

	* tests/defs (libtool): Don't use tlibtool anymore, since we can now use
	the generated libtool directly.

1998-03-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Copy the contents of ltmain.sh into the generated
	libtool.  This should more than halve the execution times on old
	or buggy /bin/sh systems, such as HP-UX 9 and SunOS 4.1.4.  From
	Tom Lane.

1998-03-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): Add support for
	the `default' package, so that people can control unnamed
	packages.
	(LD): Only add an ABI flag under IRIX 6.x, since IRIX 5.x doesn't
	support them.  From Alexandre Oliva.

1998-03-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x.  From Christopher Olsen.

1998-02-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag
	during compilation.

1998-02-23  Brendan Kehoe  <brendan@cygnus.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): For
	--enable-shared, heed the value of $PACKAGE from AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
	if given as the argument for the library to be built shared.

1998-02-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Fix up a typo confusion between
	$ac_dir and $dir.  Reported by Akim Demaille.

	* ltmain.in (link): Don't allow both `-version-info' and
	`-release'.  Reported by Danny Backx.

1998-02-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* Makefile.am (noinst_SCRIPTS): Remove lineno from distribution.

	* lineno: Remove from distribution, as it is no longer needed.

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig.in, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh):
	Rewrite these rules not to use config.status or lineno.  This
	makes things simpler, and reduces dependencies, so that the
	scripts are rebuilt and installed in srcdir only when necessary.
	Reported by Stephan Kulow.

	* tests/sh.test (scripts): Remove the lineno script, since it is no
	longer distributed.

	* tests/assign.test, if.test, test-e.test: Even though 15 tests looks
	impressive, these are now redundant.  Remove them from the
	distribution.

	* tests/sh.test: Do what assign.test, if.test, and test-e.test used to
	do.

1998-02-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4, ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Correctly identify absolute
	directory names on MS-DOS.  Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in, libtool.m4: Change a bunch of `sed N!d'
	commands to `sed Nq', for efficiency.

	* ltmain.in: Only egrep the first few lines of files in order to
	determine if they were libtool-generated.  This prevents egrep(1)
	from taking forever to look at a 10MB binary on Solaris.  From
	Stephan Kulow.

	* tests/defs: Correctly identify absolute directory names on MS-DOS.
	Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.

1998-02-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (no_undefined_flag): Add a flag to declare under
	Solaris that the library should not have any undefined
	references.  Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.

	* ltmain.in (mkdir): Fix one more mkdir race.  From H.J. Lu.

1998-02-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.

	* ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.

1998-02-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): New macros to
	modify the `--enable-shared' and `--enable-static' defaults in the
	configure script.  This works a lot better than the old
	`enable_shared' and `enable_static' variables did.  Reported by
	Bob Friesenhahn.

	* tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added GNAT (GNU Ada Translator)
	suffices, `.ada', `.ads', `.adb'.  From Samuel Tardieu.

1998-02-07  Samuel Tardieu  <sam@inf.enst.fr>

	* ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they
	are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).

1998-02-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Turn on IRIX shared libraries again!

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Use file(1) to discover which ABI we're using
	on IRIX, and propagate the correct linker flag.  From Jim Wilson.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (Xsed): `arg=-n; echo "$arg" | sed ...'
	gives problems, because the `-n' is interpreted as an option to
	echo(1).  So, use `echo "X$arg" | sed -e 's/^X//' ...' everywhere,
	via the $Xsed convenience variable.  Suggested by H.J. Lu.

1998-02-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit
	and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.

1998-01-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'
	isn't accepted by GCC.

1998-01-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (soname_spec): Add in user-specified release numbers
	for every host system that supports an soname that differs from
	the linkname.

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Add `-old_ld' to the list of flags that need to
	be passed through on SGI.  Reported by Chris Lee.

	* ltmain.in (release): Prepend a hyphen to the release number, and
	fix a typo because `-version-info' takes only 3 args.  From
	H.J. Lu.

1998-01-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (library_names_spec): On Linux, use the
	user-specified release.

	* ltmain.in (link): Allow the user to specify a release number for
	the library using the `-release' flag.  Suggested by H.J. Lu and
	Ian Lance Taylor.

1998-01-23  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export some important
	environment variables.  Reported by Ian Haggard.

1998-01-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (old_postuninstall_cmds): Reorder so that chmod
	happens after ranlib.  From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.

	* ltmain.in (mode): Added `gcc*' and `*-gcc*' to the patterns that
	recognize compilers.  From Pieter Schoenmakers.
	(link): Recognize `.a' files again.  Suggested by Pieter
	Schoenmakers.

1998-01-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (compile): Recognize `.asm' extension, for use with
	the nasm assembler.  From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.

	* tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.asm'.  From Markus
	F.X.J. Oberhumer.

1998-01-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in (runpath_var): Use instead of
	`hardcode_runpath_var'.

1998-01-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (finish): Add a better --finish message.  Suggested by
	Kenneth Albanowski.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Fix a few typos.

1998-01-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in (link): Quote the definition of $echo in the wrapper
	script.

	* ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use `--export-dynamic'
	instead of `-export-dynamic', which is not accepted by all GNU
	ld's.  From Eiichi Takamori.

	* ltmain.in (install): Don't print silly `library stripping'
	warnings.  Reported by François Pinard.

1997-12-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltmain.in: Don't forget to quote the CDPATH substitution.  From
	Tor Lillqvist.

1997-12-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@profitpress.com>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (CDPATH): Unset this environment variable
	so that HP-UX shells, at least, don't print out the directory name
	after a `cd' command.  From Tor Lillqvist.

1997-12-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* demo/Makefile.am (hardcode): Change a bunch of references to
	`$(LIBS)' to `-lm', since we no longer put -lm in LIBS.

	* demo/configure.in: Delete the test for libm, since it is
	standard on every system.

	* demo/Makefile.am (libhello_la_LDFLAGS): Change to include -lm,
	in accordance with new inter-library dependency code.

	* ltmain.in (dependency_libs): Added to help people link programs
	without having to explicitly specify inter-library dependencies.

	* ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Oops... I forgot to apply the AIX 3
	restriction to the generated libtool script.  Reported by Stefan
	Westerfeld.

1997-12-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (thisdir): Quote $echo in the generated libtool
	script for HP-UX.  From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.

	* ltmain.in (link): Recognize the `.s' suffix.  From Markus
	F.X.J. Oberhumer.

	* ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Don't quote ${wl} on HP-UX
	because link_static_flag is never evaled.  From Eric Backus.

	* tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.s'.  From Markus
	F.X.J. Oberhumer.

1997-12-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
	dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly.  From Jim
	Meyering.

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): Rewrite
	these rules so that they are parallelizable.  Reported by Jim
	Meyering.

	* ltconfig.in (ltecho): We need special handling to quote the
	`echo' variable itself.  From Alexandre Oliva.

1997-11-29  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Enable this workaround for a broken
	collect2 only on AIX 3.  This avoids problems on other AIX
	versions.  Reported by Stefan Westerfeld.

	* ltmain.in, ltconfig.in (finish_eval): Variable like finish_cmds,
	except it is a single command which is evaled, and not shown.

	* ltconfig.in: Port to AmigaOS.  From Joop van de Wege.

	* ltmain.in (echo): Delete preamble to check for a working echo,
	since we just use the one included in the generated libtool.

	* ltconfig.in (echo): Include this definition in the generated
	libtool script.

1997-11-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in, libtool.m4 (NM): Add /usr/ccs/bin to the PATH
	before checking.  From Kaveh R. Ghazi.
	(NM): Delete an extraneous egrep from ltconfig.

	* ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): Change back to using `ldconfig -n'.
	This makes Linux behave like other systems, which is more in line
	with what libtool needs.

1997-11-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Change a whole bunch of `progname' variables to
	`modename'.  This is for clarity, and to fix a tiny typo in finish
	mode.

	* libtool.spec (Name, Version): Ditto.

	* configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use PRCS to automatically generate
	the proper package name and version number.

	* ltconfig.in (gnu_ld_acts_native): Treat GNU ld like the native
	linker on SunOS 4.x.  Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
	(deplibs): Change the defaults all over, since most systems cannot
	handle inter-library dependencies.

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Only look at the first line of the
	output from NM when determining whether it supports a command line
	option.  This prevents false positives on OSes which ignore
	invalid flags, like HP-UX, which prints `nm: unknown option "B"
	ignored'.  Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.

	* ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): On Linux, update ld.so.cache by
	removing the `-n' flag from ldconfig.  Suggested by Kenneth
	Albanowski.

	* Makefile.am (maintainer-checkin, maintainer-release): New
	commands to reap the full benefit of using PRCS to maintain
	libtool version numbers.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (global_symbol_pipe): Explicitly cast all
	addresses to __ptr_t.  This fixes a bug due to a strict IRIX
	compiler.  Suggested by Kaveh R. Ghazi.

1997-11-23  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (echo): For aesthetics, avoid using `$echo' when
	`echo' will do *exactly* the same thing.  This prevents ugly
	`printf %s\n timestamp > some.lo' commands from appearing in the
	libtool output.
	(link): Delete the `-allow-undefined' flag because it is now the
	default.  Make `-no-undefined' in order for people to declare that
	a library is entirely self-contained.  This prevents maintainers
	from accidentally creating shared libraries that won't work on
	AIX.  Reported by Stefan Westerfeld and Danny Backx.

	* ltconfig.in (echo): Use an echo variable, just as in ltmain.in,
	because we need it for quoting substitutions.  For most of the
	script, though, use the default echo, just like Autoconf does.
	Without this patch, character \001 ends up in global_symbol_pipe.
	Reported by Lars Hecking and Jürgen Fluk.

	* ltmain.in (echo): Set default to `echo=echo'.  Ooops.  That's
	what you get for testing obscure code paths and forgetting to
	revert to the original version.  Reported by Danny Backx.

1997-11-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Set to `-R' for FreeBSD
	2.2.  From Sean Kelly.
	(postuninstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds): Commands to run
	after uninstall mode deletes the libraries.  Suggested by Joop van
	de Wege.
	(export_dynamic_flag_spec): On HP-UX, add the `${wl}-E'
	export_dynamic_flag_spec.  Reported by Matthias Hoelzer.

1997-11-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (sed_quote_subst): Oops.  We forgot to
	quote backticks.  Reported by Joop van de Wege.

	* tests/quote.test: Add backticks to the backslashify test.

1997-11-09  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (symcode): On IRIX, don't extract undefined
	symbols.  When a function is inlined by G++, references to it are
	still marked as undefined in the object file.  This means that our
	symbol file causes undefined references, because there are
	actually no matching global symbols.  Reported by Paul Kendall.

1997-11-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in: Don't forget to redirect the COLLECT_NAMES libtool
	script fragment to the generated libtool, rather than to stdout.

1997-11-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Add a more sophisticated test to determine the
	ABI flag on IRIX 6.  Suggested by Lars Hecking and Ian Lance
	Taylor.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Only export this
	variable if we are running under AIX.  Otherwise, we tickle a g++
	bug under IRIX.  From Paul Kendall.

	* Change bug reporting address to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.

	* ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): OSF/1 3.x also requires a
	wildcard argument to `-expect_unresolved'.  From Stephan Kulow.

1997-11-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (link): Use libname_spec.

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Somehow, the HP-UX pic_flag (`+Z') was
	dropped between libtool-1.0 and now.  Add it back in.  Reported by
	Akim Demaille.
	Integrated more patches for OS/2.  From Jeff Freedman.
	(libname_spec): New variable for OSes that don't require their
	libraries to look like `libNAME.a'.

	* ltmain.in (link): Only use global_symbol_pipe if it has been
	defined.  From Stephan Kulow.

	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Protect C fragment under C++
	compilers.  From Stephan Kulow.

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/acinclude.m4,
	$(srcdir)/demo/acinclude.m4): Change rules to use LN_S so that
	they can be run on any system.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): For NetBSD, don't include deplibs.
	From Dieter Baron.

	* ltmain.in (mkdir): Check that the directory doesn't exist before
	we exit with error, so that we don't get races during parallel
	builds.  From H.J. Lu.
	(fbsd_hideous_sh_bug): Apparently, some FreeBSD /bin/sh's have a
	bug that will empty base_compile unless we do this dummy
	assignment.  From Marc van Kempen.

1997-10-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (libtool_shared, libtool_static): Fixed logic error
	to reenable override of libtool's defaults by setting
	enable_shared or enable_static in configure.in.  Reported by Tom
	Tromey and Stephan Kulow.

	* ltmain.in (link): Add explicit support for compiler options that
	begin with `+'.  Reported by Aubert Pierre.

1997-10-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in: Silly me.  Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"
	into *" $dir "*.

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX.  From Mark
	Kettenis.  It is also the default for OSF/1.

	* demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes.  From Mark
	Kettenis.

	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not
	double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted.  From Mark
	Kettenis.

1997-10-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU
	ld.  This prevents breakage when `$CC -print-prog-name=ld' returns
	an absolute directory name.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.

	* ltconfig.in: Port to OS/2 using EMX.  From Jeff Freedman.

	* ltmain.in (link): Use old_archive_from_new_cmds.

	* ltconfig.in (old_archive_from_new_cmds): New variable to
	support DLL libraries.

	* ltmain.in (link): Only `eval' export_dynamic_flag_spec if it is
	not empty.  Reported by Stephan Kulow.

1997-10-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltconfig.in (objdir): Use the .libs directory on all systems for
	which that name is valid, and _libs on the others (like MS-DOS).
	Suggested by Juergen Erhard.

1997-10-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.org>

	* ltmain.in (link): Added a bit more inter-language support to the
	symbol file generation process.
	Instead of complaining about unrecognized argument suffices, pass
	them to the linker.  This prevents libtool from barfing on
	mandatory arguments to linker flags.  Reported by Michael
	Tiemann.

1997-10-09  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.in (link): Change the wrapper script to follow symlinks
	in order to find thisdir.  This should put the final nail in the
	coffin for problems with wrapper scripts.  From Ian Lance Taylor.

1997-10-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.in: Change a few `$echo' commands into `$show' to make
	--silent mode behave as advertised.

	* ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): On OSF/1 4.x, use
	`-expect_unresolved \*'.  From Christian Mondrup.

	* ltmain.in (install): Change install mode to allow a specified
	/bin/sh argument at the beginning of the install_prog.  Also,
	specify the shell to run when invoking libtool recursively for
	finish mode.  From Chris Provenzano.

	* libtool.m4 (LIBTOOL): Change definition to include $(SHELL).
	From Chris Provenzano.

	* ltconfig.in: Port to UTS 4.x.  From Alistair Crooks.

	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-libflag): Add rules to make this binary for
	hardcode.test.

	* tests/hardcode.test (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Check the hardcoding
	properties of the flag_spec, too.

1997-09-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (LD): As with libtool.m4, don't override LD.
	Do a whole bunch of ac_t quoting.

1997-09-24  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.

1997-09-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Arguments to the for loop must be
	whitespace separated.  This fixes a bug under FreeBSD's /bin/sh.
	From George Scott.

	* tests/defs, tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Change =inst to
	_inst to fix portability on MS-DOS.  From Robert Hoehne.

1997-09-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add
	-lc to deplibs.  Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.

1997-09-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): If the COLLECT_NAMES
	environment variable has not been set, set it to empty.  This
	apparently fixes the AIX bug with GCC's collect2.  Reported by
	Mark Kettenis.

	* demo/Makefile.am, ltmain.in, tests/hardcode.test (objdir):
	Changed objdir variable .libs to _libs.  This is another MS-DOS
	portability fix.  Suggested by Robert Hoehne.

	* tests/hardcode.test (objdir): New variable to simplify change from
	.libs to _libs (MS-DOS portability fix).

1997-09-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (hardcode_minusL): Fix typo by renaming
	hardcode_minusL to hardcode_minus_L.  Also add FreeBSD
	hardcode_libdir_flag_spec. From Paul Traina.

	* ltmain.in (link): Honour multiple `-rpath' flags when linking
	programs.  Suggested by Bengt Martensson.
	Quote appearances of $echo in the wrapper script.  From Alexandre
	Oliva.

	* Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead
	of ltmain.sh.in.

	* ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in.  This fixes a
	portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!).  From Robert
	Hoehne.

1997-09-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular
	objects if we did not build old libs.  Reported by Tomas Hiller.

1997-09-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to
	hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all
	dynamic linking.  The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic
	linking against libtool libraries.  Suggested by Bengt
	Martensson.

	* ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are
	actually using GNU ld.  This fixes an inconsistency when running
	ltconfig without using libtool.m4.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
	(global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C
	identifiers.  Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.

	* tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Change references from
	hell.static to hell.debug.

	* tests/quote.test (echo): Add the same Digital Unix echo test fixes as
	the ones to ltmain.sh.in from Todd Kover.

	* tests/if.test, tests/test-e.test (scripts): Add ../lineno to
	the scripts we check.
	* tests/if.test: Check for accidental use of test X$something rather
	than test "X$something".

1997-09-04  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval
	statements.  Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.
	(echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo
	test fails on Digital Unix 4.0.  From Todd Kover.

1997-08-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.
	This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,
	but no working echo program.

	* tests/quote.test (echo): Change test to version that uses printf.
	Be less strict about return results.

1997-08-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and
	finalize_command are always evaled.  Quote any unknown linker
	flags we need to pass through.
	(compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.
	(echo): I hate Sun!  The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles
	backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash
	quoting using echo and sed.  So, we search for an echo that obeys
	the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality.  Then we use `$echo' everywhere
	in ltmain.sh.
	Put tabs back into the ${IFS=	} sequences.  Emacs untabify is
	libtool bane.

	* ltconfig.in: Quote all variable values that may contain
	metacharacters creating the libtool script.  This provides
	complete protection, so that even single-quotes may appear inside
	a libtool variable value.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Quote finalize_command before putting it in
	the wrapper script.

	* tests/quote.test (echo): Add the test for a non-backslash-mangling
	echo.

1997-08-26  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (sed_quote_subst): Change the quoting procedure
	again.  I think that the new one is robust for *all* characters,
	including whitespace and metacharacters.

	* tests/quote.test: New torture test for libtool metacharacter quoting.

1997-08-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells
	cannot handle `]' in scan sets.  From Ian Dall.

1997-08-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling.  Suggested
	by Alexandre Oliva.

1997-08-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value
	of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work.  This
	guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly.  Add support for
	execute mode.

	* ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set
	shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled
	executables and libraries.  Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.

1997-08-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Use lineno.

	* configure.in: Add AM_PROG_AWK for lineno.

	* lineno: New program to automatically put line numbers in
	ltconfig.

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (AM_PROG_LD): Yet Another Rewrite, which
	incorporates the results of `gcc -print-program-name=ld'.
	Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.

1997-08-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Accept `--quiet' and `--silent' flags to turn off
	command echoing.  From Juergen A. Erhard.

	(compile): Recognize the Objective C `.m' extension.  From Juergen
	A. Erhard.

	(compile): Suppress error output from the second compilation (if
	any) so that we don't get those frustrating duplicate error
	messages.

	* tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added Objective C extension, `.m'.

1997-08-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Added messages to config.log to describe what sort
	of test we are running.
	(pic_flag): Added a sanity check for pic_flag.  This should fix
	bugs reported using the cc bundled with HP-UX 10.  Suggested by
	Bruno Haible and Akim Demaille.

1997-08-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Add -dlopen and -dlpreopen support for
	libtool objects.  This means that dlopened modules no longer need
	to be shared libraries.

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): GCC on IRIX 6 always builds PIC.
	Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Always add `-n32' to the linker if we are using
	GCC on IRIX 6.  Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.

1997-07-30  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Explicitly check enable_shared and
	enable_static rather than just enableval.  This allows
	configure.in scripts to set their own defaults.  Suggested by
	Tommy Reilly.

1997-07-29  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Add NLS environment variable handling copied from
	ltconfig.in.  Reported by Akim Demaille.
	(link): If allow_undefined_flag is not supported, then turn on old
	libraries.  Reported by Akim Demaille.

	* demo/dlmain.c (main): Use dld_preloaded_symbol_count to display
	a message about the sortedness of the symbol table.

	* ltconfig.in (nlist): Use an nlist convenience variable, so that
	code can be shared directly with ltmain.sh.in.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (dld_preloaded_symbol_count): Count up
	the number of symbols in the dld_preloaded_symbols.  Set to `-1'
	if the list wasn't both sorted and counted.  This allows
	applications to do a quick binary search, if they are so inclined.

1997-07-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove code for `-version-file', since it
	has been long-deprecated.

	Disable static linking if hardcode_direct is unsupported and there
	is no working link_static_flag.  This provides correct behaviour
	for all cases on AIX 3, regardless of whether collect2 is broken
	or not.  Reported by Mark Kettenis.

	* ltconfig.in: Fix typo in test polarity.  From Mark Kettenis.

1997-07-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): Set to `unsupported' if aix3 uses
	a broken collect2.  Adapted out of test results from Mark
	Kettenis.
	(link_static_flag): Make sure the link_static_flag actually works
	with a trivial binary.

	* ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Renamed
	from export_dynamic_flag because we eval it in ltmain.sh.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link_static): Don't eval link_static_flag.

	* demo/dlmain.c (main): Change function prototype to be KNR
	compatible.  From Kaveh R. Ghazi.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Use no_builtin_flag.  This works around
	conflicting definitions of builtin functions with at least GCC.
	Reported by Kazuhiro Sasayama.

	* ltconfig.in (no_builtin_flag): New flag to turn off builtin
	functions when compiling an object file.
	(pipe_works): Use it.

	* tests/demo-exec.test (status): Use status variables so that we try to
	execute all the programs.

1997-07-23  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (pic_flag): According to the libg++ 2.7.2 configure
	script, DEC alpha CPUs are PIC-only, as well.  Reported by Kevin
	Jacobs.

1997-07-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in: Replace all occurances of "sed 'X;
	Y'" with "sed -e 'X' -e 'Y'".

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Finish full integration for `-dlopen' and
	`-dlpreopen'.

	Fix two silly typos where I used a compile_command in place of a
	finalize_command, and vice versa.

	Change the wrapper script to check a hardcoded path only if the
	argv[0] method fails.  This is a compromise for the previous two
	patches, and should solve the majority of problems with wrapper
	scripts.  From Kenneth Albanowski.

	(link): Change a reference to hardcode_libdir_colon_separated to
	use the new hardcode_libdir_separator variable.

	* demo/Makefile.am (helldl_LDFLAGS): Add `-export-dynamic' and
	`-dlpreopen' for building helldl.

	* demo/dlmain.c (main): Succeed, even if none of the libhello
	symbols have been preloaded.

1997-07-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Add `U' to the accepted global
	symbol types.  This means that we will get duplicate symbols, but
	we'll also be sure to get all global symbols used by the program.

	* ltconfig.in (pipe_works), ltmain.sh.in (link): Sort and make
	symbol output unique.

1997-07-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (pipe_works): Check to make sure our guessed
	global_symbol_pipe actually works.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Revert change from Kenneth Albanowski.  The
	wrapper scripts are more reliable when they just use the argv[0]
	value.  Generally, when the argv[0] method doesn't work, the user
	is trying to do something weird with an uninstalled binary, and
	should try a different approach.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (CC): Always use `$CC' instead of
	`$cc'.  This fixes a FreeBSD bug.  Reported by Chuck Robey, and
	others.

1997-07-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): In wrapper scripts, hardcode the current
	directory to prevent phony argv[0] values from screwing up our
	program.  From Kenneth Albanowski.

1997-07-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the
	distribution.

1997-07-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* demo/Makefile.am: Add helldl, made from dlmain.c, to demostrate
	`-dlopen' usage.

	* demo/dlmain.c: New file to demonstrate preloaded modules.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Add `-dlopen' flag to preload dynamic
	modules, even on static platforms.  Use `$NM' and
	`$global_symbol_cmd' to extract symbols from required files.
	(dlname): Delete dlname mode entirely.  It is rendered obsolete
	because the `.la' file format is now a public interface.

	* ltconfig.in (NM): New variable for BSD-compatible nm program.
	(global_symbol_cmd): Pipeline to extract global symbols from the
	nm output.

	* ltmain.sh.in: The .la file header should depend on `ltmain.sh',
	not `$PROGRAM'.
	(link): Make sure $export_dynamic_flag is eval'ed before it is
	used.

	* tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Check the new
	helldl program,	too.

1997-07-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.spec: New Red Hat Package Manager specification file in
	order to help people prepare distributions of libtool for Linux.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Eliminate two accidental uses of the NONE magic
	value.  These were breaking libtool's behaviour when no mode is
	specified.

	* tests/nomode.test: New test to make sure there is correct behaviour
	when we don't specify a mode.

1997-07-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Release 1.0.

	* ltconfig.in: On SunOS, append /usr/etc to the PATH before
	running ldconfig; on *BSD, append /sbin.  This was done in line
	with the Linux change suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.

	* demo/Makefile.am (hardcode_tests): Aesthetic change to
	alphabetize order of compiling the hardcode tests.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Delete README-automake.

	* README-automake: Remove from distribution.

1997-07-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): In the executable wrapper, strip trailing
	colons from the shlibpath_var because some ld.so's, notably
	OpenBSD 2.0's (!), don't parse colon-terminated values correctly.
	From Tim Pierce.

1997-07-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in: Eliminate uses of the NONE magic
	variable value.  Use an empty variable instead.

	* ltconfig.in (with_gcc, with_gnu_ld): Do the tests for the C
	compiler and linker if the variables are unset, or if they are not
	GNU C and ld.
	(RANLIB): Eliminate redundant `if' statement.

	* configure.in: Use AM_PROG_LD.

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD_GNU): New macro to determine if LD is GNU
	ld.
	(AM_PROG_LD): Rename AM_PATH_PROG_LD to AM_PROG_LD.  Parameterize
	so that the user can specify `--with-gnu-ld' or `--without-gnu-ld'
	to indicate his preference.
	(AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.

1997-06-30  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Append /sbin to the path before running ldconfig on
	Linux.  This helps superusers who haven't set their PATH
	correctly.  Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.

	* tests/if.test: New test to make sure that we haven't forgotten to
	follow an `if' statement with a `test' command.  This should avoid
	the majority of hard-to-track bugs.

1997-06-29  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Change all the `eval "$run ..."' sequences to
	`$run "eval ..."'.

	Change all `$ln_s ...' sequences to use `(cd /dir && $LN_S ...)'.
	This is the sequence recommended by the Autoconf manual, and
	should avoid any problems on older machines.  Eliminate all uses
	of `cp -p'.  Reported by Akim Demaille.

	(install): Use `test $# -gt 0' instead of `test -n "$1"'.

	* ltconfig.in (LN_S): Add test to see if `ln -s' works.

	* libtool.m4: Increment serial number, and require AC_PROG_LN_S.

1997-06-26  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement.  Reported by
	Akim Demaille.

1997-06-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of
	am_cv_path_ld.  From Tim Pierce.

1997-06-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Redo two robustness fixes.  Alexandre had the
	correct approach, but I botched them.

	* ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Disable shared libraries on
	MkLinux unless GNU libc is in use.  Reported by Akim Demaille.

1997-06-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Add a missing `test' command.  Reported
	by Joel Weber.
	Miscellaneous fixes to improve robustness.  From Alexandre Oliva.

	* tests/demo-conf.test (CONFIG_SITE): Set to /dev/null, so that the
	config.site file doesn't mess up our prefix.  Reported by Joel
	Weber.

	* tests/demo-inst.test: Always run both hell.static and hell.

	* tests/demo-conf.test: Always remove the local config.cache, but run
	`make distclean' only if the Makefile exists.  Otherwise, the demo
	directory is not cleaned up if a user uses their own config.cache.
	Reported by Joel Weber.

1997-06-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Create invalid libtool objects when partial
	linking if we don't have PIC.  From Jeff Dairiki.
	(install): Fix bug if libtool object is installed to a file name
	without directory components.  From Jeff Dairiki.

1997-06-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (demo/configure): Fix up rules to run autoconf.
	(aclocal.m4): Now we depend on our own libtool.m4.

	* configure.in (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): Use it.

	* libtool.m4 (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): New macro to find the linker used
	by the C compiler.
	(AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.

	* ltmain.sh.in (install, uninstall): Support installing and
	uninstalling `.lo' files.  From Jeff Dairiki.

1997-06-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Only move if $(srcdir) is not
	the current directory.  Don't regenerate every time the package is
	reconfigured.  Reported by Tom Tromey.
	(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Added ltconfig, ltmain.sh, so that
	$(srcdir) is not messed with during a regular clean.

1997-06-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Be sure to move these files
	into $(srcdir) once they are created.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Disable building static libraries.
	People should use their favourite AR and RANLIB commands.
	Disable building old-style objects if `--disable-static' is
	given.  Suggested by Tom Lees and Stephan Kulow.

1997-06-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (host_cpu, host_vendor, host_os): Patch up
	definitions, to allow for the fact that the host_os may contain
	hyphens (as in linux-gnu).  From Scott Goehring.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Move the `dlname' setting closer to the top
	of the file.  Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
	Symlink the libtool archive into the `.libs' directory so that it
	can be found by programs that want to find a library's dlname by
	searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  Reported by David Mosberger-Tang.

1997-06-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Tell people to report bugs to the new libtool mailing list,
	<bug-libtool@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.

1997-06-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): New variable that implements
	`-allow-undefined'.
	(archive_cmds): Enable C++ constructors for FreeBSD 2.2.  From
	David Nugent.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept new `-allow-undefined' flag when
	building libtool libraries.  This tells libtool to allow
	unresolved symbols to exist in shared libraries.  Basically, this
	turns off shared libraries on AIX.  Suggested by Ian Lance Taylor.

1997-05-26  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.m4 (LD): On at least IRIX, many different flags need to
	be propagated to the linker if they are part of the compiler
	command line.  Reported by Anthony Green.

1997-05-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3.  From David Nugent.

1997-04-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove all traces of `-whole-archive',
	`-no-whole-archive', and libtool convenience libraries.  They were
	more trouble than they're worth.  If these are ever reimplemented,
	they need more careful attention to make portable.

	* libtool.m4, ltconfig.in: Added a `--disable-static' flag to turn
	off static library creation.  From Tom Lees (who finally convinced
	me that it was the Right Thing to do).

1997-04-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Use them, if
	the linker has no -rpath flag.
	Quote the values we use to set runpath_var and shlibpath_var.
	(link): Use libobjlibs for libtool convenience libraries.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Add new
	variables to describe linkers that honour `LD_RUN_PATH'.
	(host_cpu, host_os): Use these more specific variables, rather
	than the full canonical host system name.

	* ltmain.sh.in (dlname): Distinguish between missing
	`-export-dynamic' and when the library is only statically linked.

1997-04-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for
	NetBSD.  From Tim Pierce.

1997-04-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Temporary measures to check for a broken collect2
	program.  Right now, we just see if we're using GCC on AIX 3.

	* tests/hardcode.test: AIX also has arbitrary limits on the line length
	of input to fgrep(1), so we need to translate NUL characters to
	newlines in order to properly detect embedded `.libs'.  From Bruno
	Haible.
	Also redirect stderr to /dev/null, so that AIX users don't get
	worried by `fgrep: Maximum line length of 2048 exceeded.'.

1997-04-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation
	mode.

1997-04-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (linker): Some GNU ld's don't accept `--version',
	but do accept `-v'.  From Jukka Honkela.
	(ld_shlibs): AIX lossage may be settling down.  AIX 3.2.5 ld does
	*not* hardcode direct libraries, but AIX 4.1.[45] ld does.

1997-04-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error.  From
	Bruno Haible.

1997-04-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Relink if hardcode_action is `relink',
	rather than using complex conditionals based on the other
	hardcode variables.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Set to `relink', not `immediate',
	if we can only hardcode existing directories.  Rearrange
	conditionals to make the intent clearer, otherwise this can be one
	hellish piece of code for the already-dizzy libtool maintainer.

1997-04-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* replfunc.m4: Delete from the distribution.  Documentation now
	describes how to set LTALLOCA and LTLIBOBJS in your own
	configure.in.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure a libtool library only counts as
	a shared library if its library_names are non-null.
	Use timestamps for .lo's when PIC is turned off, rather than
	symlinking to the real object.  This helps invalid mixtures of PIC
	and non-PIC to fail.

1997-04-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute libtool.prj.

	* Shameless plug: Changed source code management system from CVS
	to PRCS.

	* libtool.scm: Initial Guile implementation of libtool.

	* ltmain.sh.in: An unexpected inconsistency in my whole approach
	to shared libraries has proven that libtool needs to be completely
	rewritten if I'm going to give full shared library support for
	platforms that don't use the GNU C library version 2 (which to my
	knowledge currently only works on GNU Hurd and Linux/GNU systems).
	Porting the GNU C library should not be difficult, though.

	Platforms that don't have the dlopen(3) family of functions will
	need to install GNU DLD version 4 in order to build any kind of
	libraries at all.  Unfortunately, DLD 4 won't be released for a
	while, because I maintain it, and I'm too busy working on libtool.

	I'll keep the old ltconfig/ltmain.sh implementation around for as
	long as I can, and continue applying bug fixes, so that I'll have
	a reasonable starting point for this new libtool implementation.

	It looks like this implementation will be even more complex than
	the original (pre-0.7) libtool.  Initial estimates show that it
	may be up to 3 times slower, and 5 times larger than libtool-0.9.
	I'll probably have to rewrite it in Guile to get reasonable
	performance, which will severely limit its portability for a
	while.

	That will also introduce a bootstrapping issue, since the next
	release of Guile will use libtool to build shared libraries.  So,
	if users want to have shared Guile libraries, they will have to
	configure Guile with `--disable-shared', compile it, install it,
	then reconfigure Guile with `--enable-shared' and repeat.

	I was hoping to get libtool 1.0 out the door by early April, but
	now it looks like it will take at least another year before it'll
	be usable by the public at large.  April fools.  libtool.scm
	doesn't exist yet, either.

	* ltconfig.in (verify_host): Remove redundant `Transform *-*-linux*
	to *-*-linux-gnu*'.  From Bruno Haible.

	* tests/hardcode.test: AIX 3 doesn't have strings(1) so we need to do a
	funny tr and pipe the output to fgrep.  From Bruno Haible.

1997-03-31  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am: Use the new AUTOMAKE and ACLOCAL variables.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Only fail if a convenience library doesn't
	exist, and the user specified -whole-archive.
	Fix shell quoting that was breaking @OUTPUT@ substitution.

1997-03-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Use the hardcode_libdir_separator.
	Convenience libraries are libtool objects if we're not building
	libtool libs.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_separator): Added in case the
	linker only honours the last of the -rpath flags (but it can
	contain multiple colon-separated directories), such as on OSF/1.
	Reported by Carl D. Roth.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Set the dlname if -export-dynamic is given.
	(install, uninstall): Handle the dlname file separately.

	* ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag): Added to allow programs to
	use reflexive dlopens.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Include the mode name in any help messages.
	(dlname): New mode to give the name to be used with dlopen(3).

	* ltconfig.in (AR): Allow AR to be set by the user, and export it
	to ltmain.sh.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Remove broken profiled library support.
	Added `-whole-archive' and `-no-whole-archive' to manipulate
	convenience libraries.

1997-03-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow the creation of static convenience
	libraries made of libtool objects.  Suggested by David
	Mosberger-Tang.

1997-03-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: On AIX, libtool also needs to look for `B' symbols
	in nm output.  These are global variable definitions.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the
	linklib if old_library is empty (like it is on AIX).

	* ltconfig.in: Change the order of OS detection, so that
	linux-gnu* is detected before gnu*.

	* Makefile.am (libtool): Use the correct CC, RANLIB, LD, when
	generating libtool.  From Carl D. Roth.

	* configure.in: Find out the user-supplied CC, LD, RANLIB.  From
	Carl D. Roth.

1997-03-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the old
	library, not linklib.

	* README-automake: Updated to point to Automake 1.1m.

1997-03-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* demo/main.c: Use it.

	* demo/foo.h: Declare it.

	* demo/foo.c: Added definition of `nothing' so that we have an
	global variable definition, as well as functions.

1997-03-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Make sure either enable_shared or enable_static is
	configured.  Reported by Tom Tromey.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Bomb out if no library types are configured.

1997-02-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Renamed
	from `hardcode_libdir_flag'.
	(library_names_spec): Renamed from `lib_names'.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_action): Change value from
	`rpath' to `immediate'.

	* replfunc.m4: Add AM_FUNC_ALLOCA, AM_FUNC_MEMCMP, and
	AM_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS.

1997-02-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support
	old-style config.guess scripts.

1997-02-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.

1997-02-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Any ld --version that returns GNU is probably a GNU
	ld.  From Marcus Daniels.

	* libtool.m4: Added AM_REPLACE_FUNCS.

1997-02-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4.  From Bruno Haible.

1997-02-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: AIX 3 and 4 ld only hardcodes LIBPATH if -L is not
	specified.  This behaviour is the same with both xlc and gcc.

1997-02-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* doc/platforms.texi: Yaay!  We found a workaround for HP-UX
	/bin/sh buffer overflows.  From Eric Backus.

1997-02-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Release 0.9.

	* PLATFORMS, doc/platforms.texi, Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am:
	Move PLATFORMS to doc/platforms.texi.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Use hardcode_libdir_flag to get a library
	directory into the resulting binary.
	Use hardcode_action, and make many simplifying changes to have
	compilation and finalization be consistent with each other.

	* ltconfig.in: Not so amazing!  It's AIX cc that hardcodes direct
	libraries... gcc doesn't, though.
	(link_rpath_flag): Change link_rpath_flag to be
	hardcode_libdir_flag.
	(hardcode_action): New variable to simplify ltmain.sh.

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Do the full make sequence with
	--disable-shared, then without.

	* tests/demo-sttc.test: Configure the demo directory with
	--disable-shared.

1997-01-29  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Change to take advantage of linkers that don't
	hardcode direct libraries.

	* ltconfig.in: Amazing!  AIX 3 linker doesn't hardcode direct
	libraries, which makes it less buggy than AIX 4.  Reported by Mark
	Kettenis.

	* demo/configure.in: Check for the math library.

	* demo/foo.c (foo): Change to use the `cos' function, so that we
	need to link against another library.

	* tests/hardcode.test: Rewrite to use fgrep on output from ``strings
	-a'' if using fgrep directly on the binary files fails.  From Mark
	Kettenis.

1997-01-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Export the PATH variable in order to find
	the program, rather than giving a full path.  This helps give the
	program a less confusing value for argv[0].

	* tests/hardcode.test: Make sure that ../demo/libhello.la really is a
	shared library before running hardcoding tests.

1997-01-26  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Release 0.8.

1997-01-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/acinclude.m4 to the
	distribution.

1997-01-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtool.m4: For IRIX 6, ld needs -n32 if cc uses it.  Reported
	by Bruno Haible.

	* ltconfig.in: IRIX ld does not hardcode direct libraries.
	Reported by Bruno Haible.

1997-01-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_shlibpath_var): Allow new
	value, `unsupported', since most linkers do not allow you to use
	shlibpath_var for initial linking.

	* ltconfig.in: Lots of bug fixes from Bruno Haible.  Set wl on
	OSF/1, fix definitions of hardcode_* variables.
	(archive_cmds): Fix not to use +h on HP-UX 9.x.  Reported by Bruno
	Haible.

	* tests/demo-conf.test: Use the CONFIG_SHELL environment variable when
	running configure in the demo directory.  From Bruno Haible.

	* tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Make distclean in the demo directory,
	so that ``make clean; env CC=cc make check'' works as one would
	expect.

	* tests/demo-make.test: Fix typo (use $make instead of make).  Reported
	by Akim Demaille.

1997-01-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.
	Suggested by Akim Demaille.

	* libtool.m4: Change ltconfig line to use $CONFIG_SHELL when it is
	specified.  Reported by Bruno Haible.

1997-01-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Do better searching for the proper
	name to do a direct link.
	(hc-libpath): Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used
	to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.

	* Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Remove ansi2knr.1 and ansi2knr.c.

	* demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c, demo/main.c: Change ANSI prototypes to
	KNR form, for better portability, and less ansi2knr hair.

	* demo/configure.in: Remove AM_FUNC_PROTOTYPES.

	* demo/Makefile.am: Remove ansi2knr from the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.

	* demo/ansi2knr.1, demo/ansi2knr.c: Removed these files.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Use 1>&2 consistently to direct errors and
	warnings to stderr.
	(compile): Fix missing single quote.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): On Solaris at least, using
	DIR/libNAME.so does not hardcode DIR, so introduce a new hardcode
	variable to reflect that.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): If linking with $link_static_flag fails,
	then retry without it, but still use the .a versions of
	uninstalled libtool archives.

	* tests/tlibtool: Rewrote to grab all the settings from the generated
	libtool script.

	* tests/hardcode.test: Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used
	to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.

1997-01-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag.  Reported by Bruno
	Haible.

	* PLATFORMS: Add to distribution.  Suggested by Bruno Haible.

1997-01-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* tests/demo-conf.test, tests/demo-inst.test, tests/demo-unst.test,
	tests/hardcode.test:
	Use $make instead of make.

	* tests/defs (make): Add definition of $make that uses the $MAKE
	environment variable, if set.  Suggested by Bruno Haible.

	* tests/demo-unst.test (leftovers): Change the find command to ignore
	files beginning with a dot, as egrep -v doesn't seem to do the
	trick.  Reported by Bruno Haible.

1997-01-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Add support for SCO OpenServer 5.x.  From
	Christopher Olsen.

	(can_build_shared): Initialize at the top of the file, so that
	shared libraries aren't built on platforms that don't support
	them.

	* tests/hardcode.test: Added a test to make sure that libtool's idea of
	hardcoding system linkers is correct.

1997-01-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:
	Update the copyright completion years.

1997-01-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Port to IRIX 5.3, 6.2.

1997-01-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: HP-UX 9 support is the same as HP-UX 10, so the
	port is trivial.

	* libtoolize.in: Add --dry-run option, -n for short.

1997-01-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): On at least SunOS, /bin/sh doesn't
	understand "export something=val".  From Bruno Haible.

	* tests/Makefile.am (distclean-local): Remove all files that the tests
	may have created.  Reported by Bruno Haible.

	* For all tests, discover srcdir when running from the command
	line.

	* tests/demo-unst.test: Don't fail if make uninstall doesn't delete
	files beginning with a dot, since spurious .nfsXXX files may be
	present when running NFS.  Reported by Bruno Haible.

1997-01-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for
	Fortran and C++.

	* tests/suffix.test: New test to guarantee that libtool compile
	recognizes valid source file suffices.

1996-12-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid
	object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr
	implementation.  Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.

1996-12-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.

1996-12-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU
	C.  Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct
	test.

1996-12-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm.  From Mark
	Kettenis.

1996-12-09  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	Reported by Charles Kerr:
	* doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->
	independent.

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library
	dependencies.

1996-12-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Release 0.7.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the
	distribution.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use
	standard objects if they are PIC.  This prevents spurious warnings
	about invalid suffixes on AIX.

	* demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not
	quite as offensive.

	* ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la
	is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).

	* tests/demo.test: Break up into demo-conf.test, demo-make.test,
	demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test, and demo-unst.test, so that passes
	and failures are reported more quickly.

	* tests/link-2.test: Test to make sure that .lo files don't get built
	directly into programs.

1996-12-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard
	object files.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
	Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).
	Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a
	program.

	* ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing!  An error in the regexp
	for finding the directory component of the script path.

	* tests/tlibtool: A typically-configured libtool script, that uses
	../ltmain.sh.in for its backend.

	* tests/link.test: Make sure that it is legal to link against .a files.

1996-12-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
	files.  Reported by Anthony Green.

	* libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update
	aclocal.m4.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating
	reloadable objects.

1996-12-04  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool
	--finish'.
	(compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that
	non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking
	into programs and creating static archives.  Suggested by Ulrich
	Drepper.

1996-12-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library
	when sourcing it.

	* ltconfig.in (old_striplib): Do a configuration test to determine
	if old-style libraries actually can be stripped or not.

1996-12-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* tests/demo.test: Try compiling the ../demo subdirectory, with no
	special options.

	* test-e.test: Check that we haven't used `test -e' anywhere in
	our portable shell scripts.

1996-12-02  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.

	* tests: Added new subdirectory.

	* doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring
	chapter.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object
	file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.
	New option -version-info replaces -version-file.

	[help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.

	* ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.

	* demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support.

1996-11-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms.

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix for loops over arguments.
	Need to quote ${IFS= } -> "${IFS= }".
	(link): Fix soname_spec bug.  Create objdir whether or not we have
	shared libraries.

	* ltconfig.in: Check for library stripping program.
	Use test -f instead of test -e.

1996-11-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
	set.
	Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured
	with.

	* ltmain.sh.in (objdir): change to .libs.

1996-11-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the
	installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.

1996-11-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.

1996-11-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install
	modes.

	* New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten
	libtool.

1996-03-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
