Edit File: ChangeLog.2001
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> From Tom Bates <Tom.Bates@compaq.com>: * libtool.m4 [mips-compaq-nonstopux]: New port. * 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". 2001-10-06 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * configure.ac: General modernisation and cleanup. * cdemo/configure.ac: Ditto. * demo/configure.ac: Ditto. * depdemo/configrue.ac: Ditto. * ltdl/configure.ac: Ditto. * ltdldemo/configure.ac: Ditto. * mdemo/configure.ac: Ditto. * pdemo/configure.ac: Ditto. * tagdemo/configure.ac: Ditto. 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. * libltdl/ltdl.c: If not, disable assertions manually. 2001-09-11 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * bootstrap: Be robust to having no files that need removing. * libltdl/configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump libltdl version to 1.2. * libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_LDFLAGS): Bump libtool library version info to 4:0:1. 2001-09-11 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * 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. Reported by Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr> 2001-09-10 Brad <brad@comstyle.com> * libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): Missed an instance of Autoconf square bracket quoting style normalisation. * ltmain.in (-lc_r): Style improvement. * doc/libtool.texi: Remove obsolete references to ltconfig. * tests/quote.test: s/ltconfig/\$0/ 2001-09-09 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libtool.m4: Use Autoconf square bracket quoting style consistently throughout. 2001-09-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * bootstrap: Cleanup `autom4te' and `libtool' so that we don't get caught by something from a previous build. * libtool.m4 (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds) [solaris*]: Revert my 2001-09-06 patch. (no_undefined_flag)i [solaris*]: Revert Alexandre's 2001-04-11 patch. 2001-09-07 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (foreach_dirinpath): argz_len should be a size_t. Reported by Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com> 2001-09-06 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * 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 tryall_dlopen_module() must be explicitly cast to avoid compiler warnings on some environments. From Daniel Johnson <danielj7@mac.com>: * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [darwin*]: Move from GNU ld section to non-GNU ld section. 2001-09-05 Robert Boehne <rboehne@ricardo-us.com> * pdemo/Makefile.am (helldl): Automake 1.4 can't find the target if we use helldl$(EXEEXT), and Automake 1.5 barfs unless we do. Using both targets to the left of the colon seems to work though! 2001-09-03 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * demo/Makefile.am (helldl): Automake 1.4 can't find the target if we use helldl$(EXEEXT), and Automake 1.5 barfs unless we do. Using both targets to the left of the colon seems to work though! 2001-09-03 Brad <brad@comstyle.com> * ltdl.m4 [AC_LTDL_SYS_DLOPEN_DEPLIBS]: Teach ltdl about the behavior of OpenBSD's dlopen(). 2001-09-03 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>: * libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen_module): Don't forget to propogate errors over recurse levels. 2001-09-03 Brad <brad@comstyle.com> * libtool.m4 [openbsd*]: More improvements to the OpenBSD port. 2001-09-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>: * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG) [aix4*]: Be careful with shared namespaces for static and shared libs. (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN_SELF): If all else fails, try dld_link from GNU DLD. 2001-09-02 Christopher Pfisterer <cp@chrisp.de> * libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Linker flag and version numbering fixes for darwin. 2001-09-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> Based on a patch from Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>: * NEWS: updated. * ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL): Check for unistd.h. * ltdl.c: Include unistd.h if it exists. (LTDL_SEARCHPATH_VAR): Macro to prevent hardcoding "LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH". (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'. 2001-07-31 Robert Boehne <rboehne@ricardo-us.com> * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) Fixed a problem with export_symbols_cmds not being set for CXX tags, and not being properly set for any tag under AIX/Power. 2001-08-19 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Corrected and improved error message that is displayed when there was a problem compiling the C++ test program. It still mentioned the now non-existent `ltcf-cxx.sh' file. * doc/libtool.texi (LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): Removed parentheses at end of starting "defmac" line, as pointed out by makeinfo. 2001-08-18 Brad <brad@comstyle.com> * ltmain.in: Do not remove -lm from deplibs for OpenBSD. 2001-08-16 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (argz_create_sep): Don't forget to include the terminating '\0' when counting argz_len. (argz_create_sep): When canonicalizing argz, don't forget to copy the terminating '\0', incase canonicalization has shortened argz. (argz_stringify): Don't covert the final '\0' to a separator. 2001-08-15 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlhandle_next): Now we can loop through all loaded module handles as originally intended. * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlseterror): Oops. This never worked either, due to a pair of typos. Now fixed. * libltdl/ltdl.c (N_ELEMENTS): Deleted. How come nobody noticed there was no way this could have ever worked? (lt_dlcaller_set_data): Now that valid caller_ids must be non-zero, allocate an addition entry in the caller_data vector and use a zero valued key as the end marker. (lt_dlcaller_get_data): Iterate up to the end marker in one pass. 2001-08-14 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlcaller_register): Caller ids are allocated starting from value `1', so that clients can use a value of zero to indicate that libltdl has not yet initialised. * ltmain.in (exec_cmd): Fix quoting in execute mode so that the double quotes added by libtool (to prevent lossage with embedded spaces in filenames etc.) are not interpreted as literals by the shell. 2001-08-13 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file_callback): Fix a multiple free() bug. (tryall_dlopen_module): Remove some unused variables. * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinsertsearchdir): Calculate the address of the end of user_search_path correctly. * libltdl/ltdl.c (rpl_argz_stringify): New fallback implementation. * ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_FUNC_ARGZ): Test for argz_stringify in libc. * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_argz_insertinorder): Renamed from lt_argz_insert to make room for... (lt_argz_insert): Wraps argz_insert with libltdl error handling. (lt_dlpath_insertdir): Insert new path elements into an argzized path. (lt_dlinsertsearchdir): New function to insert new search directories anywhere into user_search_path using the above. (lt_dladdsearchdir): Rewritten to use lt_dlpath_insertdir. * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlinsertsearchdir): Prototype for export. * doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): Document it. * NEWS: Updated, 2001-08-07 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>: * ltmain.in [irix*]: $with_gcc is either "yes" or "" (empty string) with current autoconf, so we need to be robust to that when testing it, 2001-08-06 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Brad <brad@comstyle.com>: * libtool.m4 (deplibs_check_method) [aix*]: Removed redundant setting of this variable. 2001-08-05 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libltdl/ltdl.c (load_deplibs): Insert missing 1st argument to LT_EMALLOC. 2001-08-05 Tim Van Holder <tim.van.holder@pandora.be> * ltdl.m4: Canonicalize descriptive text used with AC_DEFINE. * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_PATH_SEPARATOR): Remove. (_LT_AC_PROG_ECHO_BACKSLASH): Use $ac_path_separator instead of $PATH_SEPARATOR. (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Ditto. (_LT_AC_TAGCONFIG): Ditto. (AC_ENABLE_SHARED): Ditto.

Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Brad <brad@comstyle.com>: * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [openbsd]: OpenBSD can build modules without a `lib' prefix and version number. Move the deplibs check code from here... (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): ...to here. 2001-08-05 Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> * libtool.m4 [osf3*, osf4*, osf5*]: Tru64 *can* build modules without a `lib' prefix to the module name. 2001-08-05 Gary V. Vuaghan <gary@gnu.org> From Guido Draheim <Guido.Draheim@tek.com>: * ltmain.in: Display better and different error messages when library linkage fails in various ways. 2001-08-05 Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com> * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_SYS_LIBPATH_AIX): Add newline after terminating '}' grouping character. Change '[0-9][0-9]' to '0' as we've already matched it. 2001-08-05 Gary V.

(foreach_dirinpath): Walk path elements with the argz API. 2001-08-04 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Sedi Master Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>: * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_SYS_LIBPATH_AIX): Replace the awk invocation with an equivalent bit of sed wizardry. From Edouard G. Parmelan <egp@free.fr> * libtool.m4 [darwin, openbsd]: Fix quoting problems with unquoted [] expressions. 2001-08-03 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * bootstrap: s/ltdldemo // -- This demo soesn't work properly, so I haven't committed it yet. 2001-08-01 Ossama Othman <ossama@doc.ece.uci.edu> * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Require Autoconf-2.50 via the AC_PREREQ autoconf macro since the new libtool macros utilize macros from that version of Autoconf. 2001-08-01 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * ltdl.m4: Bump serial number. General reformat and tify up in line with Autoconf-2.50 support. (AC_LTDL_FUNC_ARGZ): Test for system implementations of a handful of argz API calls, the error_t type, and the argz.h header. * libltdl/configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump version number. * libltdl/ltdl.c (rpl_argz_append, rpl_argz_create_sep. rpl_argz_insert, rpl_rgz_next): Fallback implementations of the similarly named functions for machines that don;t use glibc.

Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Use Autoconf-2.50 era quadrigraphs and AC_HELP_STRING to bring AC_ARG_WITH/ENABLE macros up to date. (_LT_AC_LOCK): Ditto. (_LT_AC_TAGCONFIG): Ditto. (AC_PROG_LD): Ditto. (AC_ENABLE_SHARED): Ditto. And eliminate the last remaining changequote invocations. (AC_ENABLE_STATIC): Ditto. And Ditto. (AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL): Ditto.

Set bounds correctly. * ltcf-cxx.sh (allow_undefined_flag) [aix4* | aix5*]: Fix quote error. * ltmain.in (exec_cmd): New variable. Don't exec programs within the big `case'; set the variable instead, and exec the cmd afterwards, so that the shell gets a chance to clean up here-doc files. * NEWS: Update. 2001-05-16 Alan Modra <amodra@one.net.au> * libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method): pass_all for hppa*-linux. 2001-05-03 Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>, Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> * ltmain.in (relink_command): Arrange for wrapper script to save output to a variable and display it only if relinking fails. 2001-04-25 Gary V.

Fallback to `test -h' and finally `test -f', but be careful not to let the failure status cause libtool to stop. From Simon Spero <ses@ibiblio.org> * ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_DLSYM_USCORE): Add $LIBADD_DL while checking for dlsym _. From Simon Spero <ses@ibiblio.org> * libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method) [darwin]: Set it! * TODO: Make a note to undo this later. From Christoph Pfisterer <cp@chrisp.de> * libtool.m4: Use $() execution substitution quotation to work around zsh builtin echo \ escape removal. 2001-04-22 Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net> * bootstrap: Allow overriding the location aclocal, automake, autoconf, autoheader from the environment. * demo/Makefile.am: Automake 1.4e does not allow `+=' assignments if the variable was not set with `=' earlier. `+=' was not useful here anyway. 2001-04-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * ltdl.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): UW7 has sys/dl.h, so we must check for that here. * libltdl/ltdl.c (HAVE_SYS_DL_H): Include it if necessary for the dlopen loader. Reported by Matthew Schalit <mschalit@pacbell.net> * libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): Use pass_all for various releases of UnixWare and OpenServer that support it.

On AIX -bexpall flag does strange things... Don't use it. Fix quotes around -berok flag. Add support for AIX 5. Add support for run time linking on AIX POWER. (should work on AIX 4.2 and up). Turn this feature on by adding -brtl flag to LD_FLAGS. Add support for AIX on IA64. Note: AIX on IA64 uses a SYSV type linker. Add a comment telling what to do if the TOC starts getting too large on AIX. * NEWS: mention aix5 support. 2001-04-18 Alexandre Oliva <aoliva@redhat.com> * TODO: Add -L- flag. 2001-04-11 Alexandre Oliva <aoliva@redhat.com> * libtool.m4 (no_undefined_flag) [Solaris ld]: Change to -zdefs. 2001-04-11 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> * AUTHORS: Added myself to the list of maintainers. 2001-04-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * libtool.m4 (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, osf4/osf5): Use ${wl} to pass -rpath when compiling with gcc. Reported by Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> * libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_shl_open): Cache a handle for the `self' module, since HPUX adds module symbols into the `self' pool if 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> * ltmain.in: Improve check for valid -version-info parameter. 2001-04-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> From Nick Hudson <skrll@netbsd.org> * doc/Makefile.am (libtool_TEXINFOS): Add fdl.texi so that it is included in the distribution. 2001-04-07 Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net> * ltmain.in (clean,uninstall): Do not error if the file doesn't exist and 'rm -f' was used. Exit with status 1 on error. 2001-04-06 Nick Hudson <skrll@netbsd.org> * ltmain.in: Implement a new deplibs_check_method called match_pattern that does pattern matching on filenames... * libtool.m4: ...use it with NetBSD 2001-04-05 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org> * doc/libtool.texi (Multiple dependencies): A note about the problems I've reintroduced by reverting the my patch of 2001-03-31. From Edward Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com> * libtool.m4: Typos. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Delete references to depdemo-dups.test. * tests/depdemo-dups.test: Removed, as part of the patch reversion below. * ltmain.in: Revert my change from 2001-03-31.
