-----------------------------
Most of the userland changes are in libc. For both the alpha
and the i386 setjmp has been changed to accomodate for the
new sigset_t. Internally, libc is mostly rewritten to use the
new syscalls. The exception is in compat-43/sigcompat.c
The POSIX thread library has also been rewritten to use the
new sigset_t. Except, that it currently only handles NSIG
signals instead of the maximum _SIG_MAXSIG. This should not
be a problem because current applications don't use any
signals higher than NSIG.
There are version bumps for the following libraries:
libdialog
libreadline
libc
libc_r
libedit
libftpio
libss
These libraries either a) have one of the modified structures
visible in the interface, or b) use sigset_t internally and
may cause breakage if new binaries are used against libraries
that don't have the sigset_t change. This not an immediate
issue, but will be as soon as applications start using the
new range to its fullest.
NOTE: libncurses already had an version bump and has not been
given one now.
NOTE: doscmd is a real casualty and has been disconnected for
the moment. Reconnection will eventually happen after
doscmd has been fixed. I'm aware that being the last one
to touch it, I'm automaticly promoted to being maintainer.
According to good taste this means that I will receive a
badge which either will be glued or mechanically stapled,
drilled or otherwise violently forced onto me :-)
NOTE: pcvt/vttest cannot be compiled with -traditional. The
change cause sys/types to be included along the way which
contains the const and volatile modifiers. I don't consider
this a solution, but more a workaround.
- Sort xrefs
- Be consistent with section names as outlined in mdoc(7).
- Other misc mdoc cleanup.

Add an emply MAIN__() function. This avoid an unresolved reference error
during link phase when using fortran subroutines with non-fortran 'main()'.

aren't needed as those files aren't part of libstdc++ any longer. Another
isn't needed as Cygnus doesn't compile with -frtti.
Noticed by: bde & my initial mispelling of ".So".
I knew better... too dependant on the environment we generate in, but...
This fixes the
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so: undefined reference to `filebuf virtual table'
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so: undefined reference to `stdiobuf virtual table'
errors seen after the initial bootstrap from gcc 2.7.2 to EGCS.
Agreed with by: bde & jdp
than ".so". The old extension conflicted with well-established
naming conventions for dynamically loadable modules.
The "clean" targets continue to remove ".so" files too, to deal with
old systems.
shared versions should not need to add -lm unless the program uses libm
itself. Strictly speaking, libg++ depends on libstdc++, but libstdc++
has dynamic dependencies on some exception tables and binutils doesn't
seem to like it when a secondary library has undefined references. It
doesn't seem to care when -lstdc++ is added on the command line to ld
though. Anyway, the c++ driver adds -lstdc++ explicitly, so that should
be OK. c++ also adds -lm explicitly too, even though it wouldn't need
to now. [except for statically linked binaries as .a files don't have an
equivalent of automatic internal shared object dependencies.]
