-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.
-
-1996-12-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm.  From Mark
-       Kettenis.
-
-1996-12-09  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)

-       reloadable objects.

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-

-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
-       set.

-
-1996-11-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the
-       installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.
-
-1996-11-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.
-
-1996-11-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-

-
-1997-12-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 ${wl} on HP-UX
-       because link_static_flag is never evaled.  From Eric Backus.
-
-       * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.s'.  From Markus
-       F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
-1997-12-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
-       dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly.  From Jim
-       Meyering.
-
-       * Makefile.am ($(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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>.
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Silly me.  Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"
-       into *" $dir "*.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX.  From Mark
-       Kettenis.  It is also the default for OSF/1.
-
-       * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes.  From Mark
-       Kettenis.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not
-       double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted.  From Mark
-       Kettenis.
-
-1997-10-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.
-
-       * libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU
-       ld.  This prevents breakage when `$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.
-
-1997-09-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add
-       -lc to deplibs.  Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.
-
-1997-09-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 $echo in the wrapper script.  From Alexandre
-       Oliva.
-
-       * Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead
-       of ltmain.sh.in.
-
-       * ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in.  This fixes a
-       portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!).  From Robert
-       Hoehne.
-
-1997-09-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular
-       objects if we did not build old libs.  Reported by Tomas Hiller.
-
-1997-09-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to
-       hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all
-       dynamic linking.  The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic
-       linking against libtool libraries.  Suggested by Bengt
-       Martensson.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are
-       actually using GNU ld.  This fixes an inconsistency when running
-       ltconfig without using libtool.m4.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
-       (global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C
-       identifiers.  Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.
-
-       * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Change references from
-       hell.static to hell.debug.
-
-       * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the same Digital Unix echo test fixes as
-       the ones to ltmain.sh.in from Todd Kover.
-
-       * tests/if.test, tests/test-e.test (scripts): Add ../lineno to
-       the scripts we check.
-       * tests/if.test: Check for accidental use of test X$something rather
-       than test "X$something".
-
-1997-09-04  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval
-       statements.  Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.
-       (echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo
-       test fails on Digital Unix 4.0.  From Todd Kover.
-
-1997-08-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.
-       This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,
-       but no working echo program.
-
-       * tests/quote.test (echo): Change test to version that uses printf.
-       Be less strict about return results.
-
-1997-08-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and
-       finalize_command are always evaled.  Quote any unknown linker
-       flags we need to pass through.
-       (compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.
-       (echo): I hate Sun!  The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles
-       backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash
-       quoting using echo and sed.  So, we search for an echo that obeys
-       the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality.  Then we use `$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells
-       cannot handle `]' in scan sets.  From Ian Dall.
-
-1997-08-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling.  Suggested
-       by Alexandre Oliva.
-
-1997-08-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value
-       of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work.  This
-       guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly.  Add support for
-       execute mode.
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set
-       shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled
-       executables and libraries.  Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
-
-1997-08-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am ($(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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the
-       distribution.
-
-1997-07-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement.  Reported by
-       Akim Demaille.
-
-1997-06-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of
-       am_cv_path_ld.  From Tim Pierce.
-
-1997-06-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.
-

-
-       * Tell people to report bugs to the new libtool mailing list,
-       <address@hidden>.
-
-1997-06-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3.  From David Nugent.
-
-1997-04-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for
-       NetBSD.  From Tim Pierce.
-
-1997-04-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation
-       mode.
-
-1997-04-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error.  From
-       Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-04-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support
-       old-style config.guess scripts.
-
-1997-02-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.
-
-1997-02-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4.  From Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-02-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/platforms.texi: Yaay!  We found a workaround for HP-UX
-       /bin/sh buffer overflows.  From Eric Backus.
-
-1997-02-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Release 0.8.
-
-1997-01-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/acinclude.m4 to the
-       distribution.
-
-1997-01-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.

-       * libtool.m4: Change ltconfig line to use $CONFIG_SHELL when it is
-       specified.  Reported by Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-01-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:
-       Update the copyright completion years.
-
-1997-01-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Port to IRIX 5.3, 6.2.
-
-1997-01-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-       * depdemo/sysdep.h: ditto
-       * mdemo/Makefile.am: ditto
-       * libltdl/Makefile.am: fixed the version number, build libltdls if

-       * 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,

-
-1998-12-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): prepend `.' to avoid am-recursive
-       dependency hack
-
-1998-12-21  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-       versuffix
-
-1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>

-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: include them
-
-       * demo/configure.in (BINARY_HELLDL): test whether dlopen is
-       supported at configure time

-       * 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

-
-1998-12-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * PORTING: removed the text Akim Demaille converted to .texi
-
-1998-12-09  Akim Demaille  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: converted inter-library dependencies
-       instructions from PORTING

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: fixed some typos in archive_sym_cmds
-       * ltmain.in: replaced basename with a sed expression
-
-1998-12-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Port to SCO UnixWare 7.x.
-
-1998-12-03  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>.
-       (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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * config.guess, config.sub: imported from autoconf pre-2.13
-
-1998-11-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.spec (URL): point to www.gnu.org
-       (Source): point to ftp.gnu.org
-
-       * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): removed libtool.prj
-       Reported by Akim Demaille <address@hidden>
-
-1998-11-24  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (echo): avoid shell error messages when we're
-       testing for large command line support
-       Reported by Axel Thimm <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/PLATFORMS: updated last-tested release for platforms I've
-       got access to
-
-       * THANKS: added Chris P. Ross
-
-1998-11-24  Chris P. Ross  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: added recognition of the dynamic linker on BSD/OS 4.x
-       * README: added BSD/OS 4.x to the list of supported platforms
-       * doc/PLATFORMS: added BSD/OS 4.x support for various host id's
-
-1998-11-24  David Heine  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (pass_all): actively pass the flags
-
-1998-11-24  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * depdemo: added inter-library dependencies demo (doesn't work yet!)
-       * AUTHORS: added myself to the list of maintainers
-
-1998-11-22  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: -module and libltdl
-       * mdemo/Makefile.am: ../libltdl is within $(srcdir)
-
-1998-11-18  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * PORTING: Porting instructions are in the libtool manual already
-
-       * NEWS: Mention -export-symbols and new dlpreopen
-
-1998-11-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (sunos*, sympat, symxfrm): remove underscore
-       prepended by the compiler
-
-1998-11-10  Toshio Kuratomi  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: re-enable deplibs
-       * ltmain.in: support deplibs, at least for GNU/Linux/x86
-       Updated to current libtool by Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-1998-11-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (link): Make the relink warning less harsh.
-
-1998-11-07  William M. Perry  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds
-
-1998-11-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * mdemo/main.c: removed hardcoded library names; link against -lm
-       * tests/mdemo-exec, tests/mdemo-inst: pass the library names
-       to the program
-
-1998-11-07  Marc J. Fraioli  <address@hidden>
-
-       * README: Added DG/UX
-       * doc/PLATFORMS: ditto
-
-1998-11-04  Michael Tiemann  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (irix6): it's a little bit different from irix5
-
-1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * THANKS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan
-
-       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: updated and fixed the patches below
-
-1998-11-04  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * mdemo/*: added new demo to demonstrate building of dlopenend
-       modules
-       * tests/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo*: added some tests for mdemo
-
-1998-11-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: New flag -export-symbols; new dlpreopen system
-       * demo/dlmain.c: removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count
-
-1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: On installation, don't get confused if the same name
-       appears more than once in the list of library names.
-
-1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 @address@hidden
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in
-       archive_cmds for cygwin32.
-
-1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.
-       * ltmain.in: Add support for a version_type of windows.
-
-1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Add cygwin32 support.
-       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Call AM_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN32 on a
-       cygwin32 host.  Pass DLLTOOL and AS to ltconfig.
-       (AM_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN32): New macro.
-
-1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (sco): fix typo
-
-1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: On AIX, don't treat GNU ld specially.
-
-1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-       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

-
-       * ltconfig.in: For sunos4, add ${libname}.so$versuffix to

-       * ltmain.in: For version_type of sunos, set versuffix even if
-       -version-info was not used.
-
-1998-11-02  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory
-       components
-
-1998-11-02  Eric Estievenart <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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

-
-       * AUTHORS: added myself as a co-maintainer

-       suggested by Robert Lipe <address@hidden>
-
-1998-10-31  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libpath): Use parameters from the libtool

-       not guaranteed to exist.
-
-1998-10-27  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>

-
-       * ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL when invoking shell scripts.
-
-1998-05-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool
-       libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'
-       files exist.  Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
-
-1998-05-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the
-       wrapper script.
-       Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again.  If people
-       want to shoot themselves in the foot, I'd better let them do so,
-       so that people who are smart enough not to can squeeze out another
-       ounce of functionality.  From Tim Janik.
-       (version_vars): Delete dead variable.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't hardcode, at
-       last.  Reported by Jason Nordwick.
-
-       * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change a bunch of `if
-       test ...; then : ; else ...' constructs to `if test ! ...; then
-       ...', for clarity.
-
-1998-05-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (LC_ALL, LANG): Save these values and restore them
-       during execute mode.  From Pavel Kankovsky.
-       (mode): Accept strace and truss as programs that throw us into
-       execute mode.  From Pavel Kankovsky.
-
-1998-05-07  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Don't use .$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.
-       Reported by Lars Hecking.
-
-1998-04-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (maintainer-rekey): New rule to force us to change
-       Project-Version after we make a release.  This keeps all version
-       numbers in sync, rather than branching just before the release.
-       (maintainer-release, maintainer-checkin): Use maintainer-rekey.
-
-       * ltmain.in (finish): Notice when a finish command fails, so that
-       we can add it to the list of recommendations.
-
-1998-04-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Append file descriptor 5 to
-       config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that
-       ltconfig put there.  From David Taylor.
-
-1998-04-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.
-
-       * tests/quote.test (echo): Update the echo test from ../ltconfig.in.
-
-1998-04-13  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_NM): Don't override NM in the environment.
-
-1998-04-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>

-1998-03-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (reload_flag): Correct a tiny bug where `--silent'
-       would still print out the reload flag.  From Stephan Kulow.
-
-1998-03-20  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4: Use changequote to avoid problems with square
-       bracket patterns.
-
-1998-03-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Release 1.2.
-
-1998-03-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>

-       consistent.
-
-1998-03-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create
-       a file ltconfig in the build directory.
-
-1998-03-09  Andreas Schwab  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,
-       replacing foo=`eval \\$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 $host_cpu matches
-       m68*.
-
-1998-03-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Release 1.1.
-
-       * ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently
-       they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that
-       replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x.  From Christopher Olsen.
-
-1998-02-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag
-       during compilation.
-
-1998-02-23  Brendan Kehoe  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Fix up a typo confusion between
-       $ac_dir and $dir.  Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
-       * ltmain.in (link): Don't allow both `-version-info' and
-       `-release'.  Reported by Danny Backx.
-
-1998-02-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (noinst_SCRIPTS): Remove lineno from distribution.
-
-       * lineno: Remove from distribution, as it is no longer needed.
-
-       * Makefile.am ($(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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.
-
-1998-02-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they
-       are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).
-
-1998-02-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit
-       and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.
-
-1998-01-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'
-       isn't accepted by GCC.
-
-1998-01-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-

-       * NEWS: Note new user visible changes.
-       * libtool.m4 (mingw32, AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): probe for -mdll vs -dll
-       under cygwin/mingw.
-       probe whether the cygwin/mingw library supplies a stub DllMain
-       (but this information isn't yet used).
-       * ltconfig.in (mingw32, extract_expsyms_cmds): if HOST_CC is set,
-       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
-       system headers.

-
-       * 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)

-         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  Pavel Roskin <address@hidden>, Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>

-1999-06-25  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): Use pass_all on

-       at least on ARM, where it breaks.
-

-1999-06-23  Olly Betts  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (ltdll.c): Support for crosscompiling from linux to
-       mingw32.
-
-1999-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in:  moved the test for NM after the test for
-       no_builtin_flag.
-
-1999-06-20  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): use a less restrictive
-         regex (reported by Chris P. Ross <address@hidden>)
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: CR/LF fix for broken DJGPP bash
-       * ltmain.in: CR/LF fix for DJGPP
-
-1999-06-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: use eval when setting have_dlfcn_h, reformatting
-
-1999-06-12 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-1999-06-09  Pavel Roskin  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (exeext): Use quotes in the test, to prevent a
-       failure in sh.test.
-
-1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Support new GNU ld --help output format.
-       * NEWS:  Likewise.

-       H.J. Lu <address@hidden>.
-
-1999-06-05  Mark Kettenis  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: Update support for the Hurd.  Make sure that the
-       soname includes the major version number and create the right
-       links.  Allow shared objects without the `lib' prefix and without
-       version information.
-
-1999-06-02 Nick Rasmussen <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (link): use "$nonopt" as the compiler for
-         compile/finalize_command
-
-1999-05-27  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * TODO: Remove the short list of people interested in C++

-       accurate.

-
-1999-05-27  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: Mention the two bugfixes below.
-
-       * ltmain.in: Only create directory into which to extract
-       convenience libraries when $convenience is not empty.  It would
-       always be created on systems that did not support
-       whole_archive_flag_spec.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (export_symbols_cmds): Add $convenience.
-       (cygwin, export_symbols_cmds): Ditto.
-       * ltmain.in: Generate export symbol list before expanding
-       convenience libraries, to avoid passing whole_archive_flag_spec to
-       $NM.
-       Reported by Godmar Back <address@hidden>
-
-1999-05-27  David Jones  <address@hidden>

-
-       * NEWS: support for installing stripped libraries using GNU strip

-         Linux and Solaris since no one can reproduce the famous deplibs
-         bug
-       * ltmain.in: preserve $CC (reported by Tom Tromey),

-       4.3.2.0 no longer fails on static dlopening.  GNU DLD no longer

-
-       * ltconfig.in (compiler_c_o): Make sure the compiler does not
-       create temporaries in the current directory when output should go

-
-1999-04-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD, AC_PROG_NM): When looking for programs,

-1999-04-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (--fallback-echo): Do not put an inline document and

-       * ltmain.in (--fallback-echo): Likewise.
-       Reported by John David Anglin <address@hidden>
-
-       * dryrun.test: It would still fail at random times, because `cp'
-       and `mv' are not guaranteed to preserve the timestamps of the
-       installed files.  Instead of preserving them, just remove them
-       before the dry uninstall test.  Redirect dry-run output to stderr,

-       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 $objdir, instead
-       of creating it in ../tests.
-       * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Removed.
-
-1999-04-06  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/dryrun.test: We cannot rely on setting LIBTOOL, because
-       automake may use sub-makes, and the setting will not be propagated
-       to them on some makes.  Instead, create a dry version of libtool
-       and switch between it and the original one before and after dry
-       runs.
-       * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added libtool-*, created by
-       dryrun.test.
-
-       * tests/dryrun.test: Use cmp instead of diff.
-       (before, after): Create them within ../tests.
-       (libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
-       SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available.  For dry
-       runs, use "$libtool -n".
-       * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added before and after.
-       * ltmain.in: Do not create links to object files in dry runs.

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order,

-       * tests/dryrun.test: new test to check whether the dry-run

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): -Bstatic is not enough for

-       * 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

-
-       * 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

-       * 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

-       * 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

-       Reported by Erez Zadok <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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
-

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in ($PATH):  Expand any tildes in the users path to the

-         additionally in ADDON_PATH

-       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.

-

-       * 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.

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 $file_magic_cmd to test whether
-       the regex in deplibs_check_method matches its output
-       (file_magic_cmd): use full pathnames whenever possible
-
-       * ltconfig.in (sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): new variable, that
-       lists the system *run-time* search path.  Listed directories are
-       not implicitly hard-coded into executables.
-       * ltmain.in: use it, but *never* discard -R flags
-       * doc/libtool.texi: document it
-       * NEWS: ditto
-       Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/sh.test: look for `$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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed FILENAME_MAX since LTDL_FILENAME_MAX
-         is sufficient and doesn't break HP/UX
-
-1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: when building a library it doesn't make
-         sense to remove a relinked program ("lt-" prefix)
-
-1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): cannot return str when it's NULL
-       because of const correctness
-
-1999-03-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-1999-03-10  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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,

-         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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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

-
-1999-03-09  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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@
-

-
-       * NEWS: updated.
-
-1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (tests): documented demo-nofast.test and
-         renamed cdemo* to demo*
-
-1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (archive_expsym_cmds, solaris, without_gnu_ld):
-       $lib.exp already starts with $objdir/
-       Reported by Godmar Back <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (freebsd): compile symbol table file with pic_flag
-       only on FreeBSD and when not static linking; it's been causing
-       trouble on platforms such as OpenBSD.
-
-1999-02-26  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (cygwin): s/\\(mingw\\|cygwin\\)32/\\1/g.  Must've
-       missed this file when I changed to cygnus' new sanction name.
-
-       * ltconfig.in (sub_uncdrive): removed.  This won't work with
-       the next version of cygwin.
-       (sub_uncdir): removed. We use <drive>:/path/to/executable now.
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): removed sub_uncdrive and sub_uncdir.
-
-1999-02-25  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * TODO: added items for next alpha release, ILD etc.
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed unnecessary check from presym_sym,
-         fixed bug in lt_dlclose, allow lt_dlopenext(NULL),
-         set deplibs for lt_dlopen(NULL)
-
-1999-02-24  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): sed `10q' is faster than `11,$d'
-
-1999-02-22  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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

-       relink it when it appears to be out-of-date
-
-       * libltdl/configure.in: check for dld.h
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: include dld.h

-       Reported by Stefan Burstroem <address@hidden>

-       * ltmain.in: fix typos in my last change (s/ocmpile/compile/)
-
-1999-02-21  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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

-
-1999-02-20  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-

-
-       * ltconfig.in (freebsd-elf*, need_version, need_lib_prefix): no

-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: remove ticks from menu items; it breaks TeX

-
-       * ltmain.in: fixes for export-symbols dry-run
-
-       * ltconfig.in (shlibpath_overrides_runpath): new variable;

-       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.

-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
-       where appropriate, when dlopening a non-libtool library
-
-1999-02-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (archive{,_sym}_commands): Be careful not to
-       re-export the dll entry points address@hidden, address@hidden and
-       address@hidden to avoid bugs with the wrong entry
-       function being called with inter-dll dependencies.
-       Reported by DJ Delorie <address@hidden>
-       * 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...

-
-       * 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

-       * ltmain.in: implemented -export-symbols-regex
-
-1999-02-17  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * *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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): strcmp filenames was reversed
-
-1999-02-11  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in: according to Marcus Sundberg <address@hidden>
-         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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-1999-02-04  Godmar Back  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): missing space for terminator when
-       allocating memory for shlib_ext
-
-1999-02-03  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): tmp would be trashed if shlib_ext
-       was longer than 3 characters
-
-1999-02-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-
-1999-01-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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).

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: allocate the variables in lt_dlopen() dynamically
-
-1999-01-25  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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)

-1999-01-24  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-       Reported by Pavel Roskin <address@hidden>
-
-1999-01-22  Edouard G. Parmelan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * THANKS: Added Chris Laas <address@hidden>
-
-       From Chris Laas <address@hidden>

-       space.
-
-1999-01-21  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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@

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (aix4*, with_gcc, archive_cmds): fix typo in Andrey

-
-       * ltmain.in (file_magic): follow soft-links before running `file'

-       Suggested by Nix <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltconfig.in (linux*, solaris*, bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path):

-       (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

-       whether to use libdir or objdir

-       (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

-
-       * 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

-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * cdemo/README: typo: mdemo->cdemo
-
-1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libtool): mkdir and configure
-       ../libltdl
-
-1999-01-13  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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
-

-       to Edouard Parmelan!
-
-       * THANKS: added Sebastian Wilhelmi
-
-       * ltconfig.in (solaris): define `need_version' to no
-
-1999-01-13  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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
-

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * configure.in (ltdl-install): Fixed up the indentation so that
-       `configure --help' is pretty again.
-
-1999-01-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): missing strlen in bound test
-
-1999-01-09  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_new_commands): Documented
-       this ltcofig variable.
-
-1999-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>.
-
-1999-01-05  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: new BeOS support
-       * THANKS: added Joseph Beckenbach
-       * libltdl/ltdl.h: use dllimport/export on Win32

-       wrong module.
-       Reported by Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (dlprefiles): Now that `2000-12-15 Utz-Uwe Haus' patch
-       below can detect preopened library deplibs correctly in libltdl,
-       we need to ensure that libtool library deplibs are also preloaded
-       into the binary for that phase to work.

-       (_LT_AC_TRY_DLOPEN_SELF): On some hosts (cygwin for instance)
-       self dlclosing unloads the main program and causes a SIGSEGV.  So
-       don't do it for now.
-
-2000-12-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       Oh My! Cygwin support has bitrotted while I was looking the other
-       way.  This should fix it some:
-       * libtool.m4 (extract_expsyms_cmds): There is a quoting problem
-       with autoconf-2.13 that prevents [$]0 from expanding.  Use shell
-       quotes instead to delay eval of $0.
-       (impgen.c) The '# ' sequence stripped by sed works again.

-       module from being lt_dlclosed.
-       (lt_dlopen):  If lt_dlopen()ing self, make the module resident.
-       (lt_dlclose):  Return an error if the module is resident.
-

-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen):  Change the default search order
-       for modules.  If the named module has no directory component,
-       always start the search with the user_search_path directories,
-       and then fall back on the current directory only if that fails.
-
-2000-11-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_LDFLAGS): increment the version
-       number to reflect the breakage of binary compatibility.

-       LT_NON_POSIX_NAMESPACE.
-       * libltdl/ltdl.h (LT_POSIX_NAMESPACE):  Deleted.  The default is
-       now to use this namespace, so the cpp macro is no longer
-       necessary.
-
-2000-11-20  Morten Eriksen  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL, AC_LTDL_SYMBOL_USCORE): Break a circular

-2000-11-20  Paul Berrevoets  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Some versions of expr respond with "0" if a
-       regexp fails to match.
-
-2000-11-19  Paul Berrevoets  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Quote the $ in $#, $2 and

-       * ltdl.c: Relegate non-POSIX-compliant symbols (e.g. those
-       ending in ``_t'') to deprecated #define compatibility macros.
-       Also ease up on the namespace pollution, so that only ``lt_''
-       and ``LT_'' prefixes are taken from the global namespace.
-       * ltdl.h: ditto.
-
-2000-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

-
-2000-10-31  Morten Eriksen  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Quote argument to avoid
-       error output from cygpath when $srcdir is empty.

-       configure when libtool.m4 is newer than Makefile.
-
-2000-10-31  Akim Demaille  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4: Adjust the copyright notice.
-       Quote all the macro names when defined.
-       Some minor formatting changes.
-       (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC)
-       (AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC, AM_PROG_LD, AM_PROG_NM):
-       Don't use indir when useless.  Don't add trailing `dnl' either.
-
-2000-10-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi:  Corrected another attack of CRLF line

-
-       From Bruce Korb <address@hidden>
-       * ltmain.in (execute_dlfiles): Reduce obfuscation.
-
-2000-09-30  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 [netbsd*] (deplibs_check_method, file_magic_cmd,
-       file_magic_test_file): Removed inappropriate duplicate
-       definitions; these variables are set in AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD.
-
-       * libtool.m4 (lt_cv_file_magic_cmd): Don't use '${MAGIC_CMD}' or
-       '${OBJDUMP}'; Solaris' /bin/sh loses with `}' in cache files.
-       (ac_cv_path_MAGIC_CMD): Renamed to lt_cv_path_MAGIC_CMD.
-
-2000-09-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (MAGIC_CMD): Don't use MAGIC, since BSD versions of
-       the file command use this environment variable to hold the
-       location of the magic database.
-       Reported by Marc Espie <address@hidden>
-
-2000-09-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/PLATFORMS: Updated.
-       * demo/configure.in:  Revert to the `libtool --features' test.
-       * 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
-       generating libtool immediately in configure.in, rather than
-       deferring part of the creation until config.status runs.
-
-2000-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: Removes references to ltconfig, and a small
-       amount of tidying up to compensate.
-
-2000-09-15  Nick Hudson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (netbsd): Improved support.
-
-2000-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       From Paul Sokolovsky <address@hidden>
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in:  Be careful about filenames with multiple `.'s in
-       them when calculating file extensions.
-       Reported by Joel Reed <address@hidden>
-
-2000-09-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Fixed incorrect use of
-       changequote
-
-2000-09-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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).

-
-       * 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

-       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

-
-       * libtool.m4: Don't include main() when testing for command to

-       take the address of main (e.g. HP-UX aCC).
-
-       * libtool.m4: Some uses of $GXX were unquoted, but GXX is either

-
-       * 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

-       no_undefined_flag from `-z text' to `-z defs' (see entry below at
-       2001-04-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>) 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 <address@hidden>:
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): `0' valued arguments to

-       (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

-
-       * ltmain.in (exec_cmd): Fix quoting in execute mode so that the

-       inline' is not very portable, and in addition Unixware 7.1.1's
-       compiler says you can't access static variables from inline
-       functions.

-       From Albert Chin-A-Young <address@hidden>

-       (sys_shl_sym): Diagnose NULL modules.
-
-       From Peter Eisentraut  <address@hidden>
-       * ltmain.in (clean,uninstall): test -e is not portable.  Well,

-2001-03-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Remove the code for stripping duplicate deplibs
-       from libtool link lines -- duplicates are somtimes necessary

-       * libtool.m4 (export_symbols): On Windows, if the export_symbols
-       file (which has been passed to libtool with the -export-symbols

-2001-03-06  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (can_build_shared) [AIX 4.[01], GCC]: GCC up to

-
-2001-01-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * TODO:  Updated.
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (load_deplibs): If loading a deplib fails,

-       into the loading application.
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c: Clean up the shadowing of the global handles
-       variable.

-       Call that instead.
-
-2002-12-30  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Copy the section

-       * libtool.m4: Move AC_REQUIRE([LT_AC_PROG_SED]) to AC_PROG_LD

-
-       * 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

-       AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION.
-       (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Replaced C-specific conftest

-
-2002-11-19  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>
-
-       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):

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>, Bo Thorsen  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Do not change the PATH in the wrappers: let them
-       launch the real binary using its path.
-
-2002-11-18  Kevin Ryde  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Library tips): Note array dimensions.
-
-2002-11-18  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: Add --mode=* to every example using libtool.
-
-2002-11-03  Ossama Othman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: add support for installing into temporary
-       staging area (e.g. 'make install DESTDIR=...')
-
-2002-11-03  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Install mode): document new
-       -inst-prefix option.
-
-2002-11-02  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (-XCClinker): New flag passes a linking option
-       directly to the compiler driver without appending ${wl}.
-
-2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in [aix]: Be sure to deal with xlc_r, cc_r and other
-       compiler variants.
-
-2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): Corrected sense of "file not
-       found" check.
-
-2002-10-24  Ossama Othman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Support compiler names matching g++*
-
-2002-10-23  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4: Removed old Windows cruft.
-       * libtool.m4: Adapted pw32 to be like Cygwin/MinGW.
-
-2002-10-23  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       ltmain.in: Do not add 1 to the version under IRIX, it is
-       not necessary.
-
-2002-10-15  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): GCC now checks -shared to
-       create a dll for Windows targets.
-
-2002-09-24  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Fixed a few spelling errors.
-
-2002-09-17  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4: Custom $symcode for Tru64 UNIX to catch 'Q',
-       read-only constants.
-
-2002-09-09  Rainer Orth  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltdl.m4 & libltdl/ltdl.c: Port fully to native Win32 API.
-
-2002-07-31  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * f77demo/.cvsignore: New file, forgotten in the last commit.
-
-2002-07-31  Eric Lindahl  <address@hidden>

-       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.
-       * bootstrap: Add f77demo directory to the list to be processed.
-       * Makefile.am: Add support for FFLAGS and FLIBS.
-       * tests/Makefile.am: Add new Fortran tests.
-       * tests/f77demo-*.test: New files.
-       * f77demo/configure.ac, f77demo/cprogram.c, f77demo/fooc.c
-       * f77demo/foof.f, f77demo/foo.h, f77demo/fprogram.f
-       * f77demo/Makefile.am, f77demo/README: New files.
-
-2002-07-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-       and Albert Chin-A-Young <address@hidden>
-
-2002-06-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (foreach_dirinpath): Ensure that filename is '\0'
-       terminated by all code paths.
-       Reported by Lutz Müller <address@hidden>
-
-2002-06-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       From Kevin Ryde  <address@hidden>:
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Platform quirks): s/dependan/dependen/
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): Ditto.
-       * TODO: Ditto.
-
-2002-06-13  Rainer Orth  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (irix, nonstopux): Set major before use.
-
-2002-06-11  Daniel Kobras  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (try_dlopen): Don't return bogus handle to user
-         if tryall_dlopen() fails.
-
-2002-06-01  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/pdemo-exec.test: Typo.  s/hell-static/hell_static/
-
-2002-05-31  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/build-relink2.test: look for installed libl3.la
-       in $prefix/lib/ as well as $prefix/lib/extra/.
-
-2002-05-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Detect and handle object name conflicts while
-       piecewise linking a static library.
-
-2002-05-02  Dave Vasilevsky  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Remove convenience libraries from deplibs for Darwin.
-
-2002-05-02  Fritz Elfert  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Modify archive_expsym_cmds
-       to catch properly handle dll alias symbols.
-
-2002-04-24  Kevin Ryde  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Use $build_os not $host_os.
-
-2002-04-14  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (C++ libraries): Finally updated to reflect
-       Libtool's support for C++.
-
-2002-04-14  Jean-Frederic Clere  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4: Update support for Fujistu-Siemens Computers (FSC).
-       * ltmain.in: Add support for EBCDIC based systems.
-
-2002-04-07  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Finish the tag matching logic started yesterday and
-       refactor it a bit.
-
-2002-04-01  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tagdemo/foo.cpp: Use C++ IO to catch problems linking to C++
-       runtime libraries.
-       * tagdemo/main.cpp: Ditto.
-
-2002-03-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * TODO: Removed obsolete comments about RMS' package system.
-
-2002-03-14  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
-
-       ltmain.in: Touch-up to make testsuite pass, and default tagname
-       to CC when it isn't explicitly set.
-
-2002-03-14  Anthony Green  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in(compile): bring a touch of order to the option processing
-
-2002-02-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: Updated.
-       * THANKS: Added Rob Collins and Chuck Wilson for their cygwin
-       work.
-
-       From Robert Collins  <address@hidden>:
-       * configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT): Needed for DOSish systems.
-       * 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.
-       * ltmain.in (specialdeplibs) [cygwin]: Be careful about
-       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

-       * tests/build-relink.test:  Be careful about possible .exe
-       suffixes.
-       * tests/noinst-link.test: Allow for .exe suffix.
-
-2002-02-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
-
-       Reverted incorrect patch:
-       2001-10-24  H.J. Lu  <address@hidden>
-       * ltmain.sh: Allow link against an archive when building a
-       shared library.

-
-       * libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): New macro tests sed for truncation of
-       output.  AC_REQUIRE the new macro.

-       macro LT_AC_PROG_SED.
-
-2002-01-10  Volker Christian  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_handle_callback): treat the result of a call

-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>.
-
-       * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): AS_HELP_STRING was introduced after
-       autoconf-2.57 was released.
-
-2003-11-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): libltdl does in fact load
-       dependency libs for lt_dlopen()ed modules.
-
-2003-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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.
-

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>

-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD) [GNU/KNetBSD]: Detect

-       _LT_AC_TAGVAR, AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED,
-       AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Use

-       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

-
-2003-11-06  Owen Taylor  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE): Recognise the

-
-2003-11-06  James Henstridge  <address@hidden>,
-       Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-

-
-2003-11-06  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/demo-nopic.test: Skip test on hppa, which don't like

-
-2003-11-06  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-       (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

-
-2003-11-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

-
-2003-11-01  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: When relinking, place the -L parameter containing

-       Bug reported by Joe Orton and Christian Schaffner.
-
-2003-10-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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.

-2003-10-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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!

-       Charles Wilson <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: include --tag options, if specified, in the

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS): Incorporate documentation
-       for AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS macro to specifify libtool tags. The now

-
-2003-10-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4: Restrict the list of tags that can be created

-       From Patrick Welche <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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/pdemo/Makefile.am, tests/tagdemo/Makefile.am (top_distdir):
-       Removed. `autoreconf' needs literals in ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS.
-
-2003-10-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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,

-       here.
-       * tests/defs: Factor much common functionality from the test
-       scripts into shell functions.  Added a copyright notice.

-       * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Reduced to 1.7.  The 1.8

-       Changed all clients.
-       (EXTRA_DIST): mkstamp has moved to the new config subdir.  Changed

-       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.
-
-2003-08-01  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (darwin): Use "-undefined dynamic_lookup" if the

-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (dyld): Save the error from the first lookup
-       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.

-       C++ compilers with certain Auto* tools.
-       (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): ditto.

-
-       * 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.

-       a patch by Ross Alexander <address@hidden>.
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Revert an
-       accidental rearranging of dylib and so for darwin.

-       "-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.

-
-       * 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

-       macros to detect at `configure' time whether the shell supports

-       functions into `libtool' through `config.status'.  Copied

-
-2004-11-30  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>
-
-       * config/general.m4sh: basename sed-subst is anchored and thus

-       backslashified as well as only the backslashified argument.
-       * config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Use both return values,

-
-       * 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.

-       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.
-
-       * m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_LIB_DLLOAD): Define HAVE_LIBDLLOADER if we
-       have a dlloader to preload.
-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinit): Only preload if HAVE_LIBDLLOADER, only

-       path for macro files, and libltdl master sources.
-       (pkgvdatadir, pkgvmacrodir): Renamed...
-       (pkgvdatadirs, pkgvmacrodirs): ...as they can now contain a ':'

-       search path for a directory to copy.
-       (func_serial_update, func_ltmain_update, func_config_update): New

-       (symfileobj is created, but not linked into output).
-
-       * tests/demo-relink.test, tests/depdemo-relink.test: SKIP, don't

-
-       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.

-       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.

-       (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

-       Initial support for s390x-ibm-tpf:
-

-       Since defs can change (path to grep for example) when it is made

-       The dlpreopen pass over libraries reverses the elements in the

-       occur after the libraries that need them, and they are not found:
-

-       * ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms) [cygwin, mingw]: when creating

-       to generate an .edata section, and allows self dlopening to work.
-       * NEWS: Updated.
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): better quoting for

-
-       * config/ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms): Addresses in

-       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.

-
-2004-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * config/ltmain.in (func_echo): Except for multi-line warnings and

-
-2004-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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.

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>

-       2004-09-06 Albert Chin-A-Young (topmost) and 2004-09-05 Albert

-
-       * config/ltmain.in (func_mode_link): Pass through options needed

-
-       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

-       These new tests would likely cause many more fortran test failures,

-       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
-       address@hidden/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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (clean-ltmain-sh): Using '==' to test for equality

-       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 @address@hidden
-       * 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.

-
-       * libltdl/slist.c, libltdl/slist.h: Merge in changes from latest

-       (slist_new): Removed.
-       (slist_box, slist_unbox, slist_sort): New.

-       (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'.

-       Don't use C99 flexible array types as we want to be C89
-       compatible.  Instead, revert to the old way of doing things with
-       an array of symbol name vs. address, and adding the originator as
-       the first symbol but with a NULL address:

-       * config/ltmain.in (func_extract_dlsyms): Store originator as a
-       NULL address symbol.
-       * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsymbol): Removed.

-
-       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.

-
-       * 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

-       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.

-       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.

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       My thanks to Alexandre Duret-Lutz <address@hidden> 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.
-

-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Tags): Document CC.

-
-2004-07-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>

-
-2004-07-18  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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.

-
-2004-07-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-

-       * libltdl/lt_dlloader.c (lt_dlloader_remove): Party to

-       * libltdl/ltdl.c (LT_DLGET_FLAG, LT_DLSET_FLAG): Add a cast to

-       (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
-       interface check callback, and generate a caller_id.
-       (iterator): New static variable for the use of...
-       (lt_dlhandle_first): New function.  Set the iterator for

-       (lt_dlhandle_next): Either work as before when iterator is unset,
-       or else skip handles that fail the interface check in iterator set
-       by lt_dlhandle_first.
-       * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlhandle_first): Declaration.

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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
-       a regular expression.
-       (re_pkgmagro_files): Replaced with...

-       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.

-       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

-       * m4/ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL): Add lt_dirent to AC_LIBOBJ if all of

-
-2004-04-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

-       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

-       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.

-       (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...

-       * 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.

-
-       * NEWS: Explain more fully why we no longer load libraries
-       with global symbol resolution.
-       * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Add missing

-
-       * 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.

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Remove unneeded else condition
-       code, now the support determination is done in m4.

-
-2004-03-21  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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_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

-
-2004-03-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in: Remove --ltdl-tar.  It doesn't work with the
-       current implementation, and seems more or less pointless.
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Invoking libtoolize): Updated.
-       * NEWS: Updated.
-
-       * doc/libtool.texi: This manual has not been maintained properly
-       for a number of years.  Much of what it said was outdated, or
-       plain wrong with reference to modern autotools.  This change
-       represents a first pass edit to clean up the obviously wrong.

-
-       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.
-       * NEWS: Updated.

-
-       * commit (SHELL): Set it explicitly, incase some madman is using
-       tcsh as their login shell :-b
-
-2004-02-15  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Rename shrext to shrext_cmds.
-
-2004-02-13  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * commit (MKSTAMP): Look for mkstamp in the right place.
-
-2004-02-12  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-       Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>,
-           Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove config/mailnotify after all; it
-       is of no use in a distribution tarball.
-
-2004-02-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4: Fix typo: testring -> teststring.
-
-2004-02-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * commit: Mail a nicer commit notification.
-
-2004-02-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in (infer_tag): Move tag inferrence to a shell function.
-       Also test $base_compile against $CC with escaped arguments. Bug
-       reported by Geoff Keating <address@hidden>.
-
-2004-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Manually make config.guess
-       and config.sub executable after they are installed as _DATA.
-       We can't use _SCRIPTS because the various program name
-       transforms may be applied to them.
-       (dist_pkgdata_DATA): List config.guess and config.sub here
-       (pkgdata_SCRIPTS): instead of here.
-
-2003-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * ltmain.in: Create temporary directory under a strict umask
-       rather than running chmod afterwards, preventing a race
-       condition where the directory could be replaced with a symbolic
-       link in the time between the two commands.
-
-2004-01-31  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE): Change `echo to
-       `$echo, causes problems when builtin echo is broken. Reported
-       by Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>.
-
-2004-01-27  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       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 address@hidden 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: Include 1.5.2 release information.
-
-2004-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-2004-01-21  Nick Hudson  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * m4/libtool.m4: Quote shrext as it is evaled in ltmain.
-
-2004-01-11  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/xfunc_copy/Xfunc_copy.
-       Now the test can actually succeed sometimes.
-
-2004-01-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in: Break out of the command argument parse loop when
-       -- is encountered.
-
-2004-01-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/test "x/test "X/ to keep

-2004-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in (seen_gettext): Removed unused variable.
-
-2004-01-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): Don't assume the existence of
-       aclocal.m4.  Make the comment more descriptive.
-       Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-       Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * .cvsignore: Ignore stamp-vcl created by the Makefile.
-
-2004-01-02  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
-       Joe Orton  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * NEWS: Next release will be in 2004.

-
-2005-12-18  Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
-
-       * THANKS: Updated.
-
-       * HACKING: `./libtool --config' is more helpful than `--help'.

-       Reported by Kurt Roeckx <address@hidden>.
-
-       * README.alpha (Reporting bugs): Suggest to also bootstrap the
-       libltdl subdirectory -- the Makefile will enforce it anyway.
-       (The Test Suite): Renamed to..
-       (The Test Suites): ..this.  Introduce the new Autotest test
-       suite, how to run each one individually, and what to report.

-2005-12-16  Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
-
-       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 <address@hidden>
-
-       * Makefile.am (libltdl/Makefile.in): also depend on
-       libltdl/aclocal.m4, so that we guarantee timestamp consistency.
-       (libltdl/stamp-mk): New target, to fix `libltdl/Makefile.in'.
-       (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `libltdl/stamp-mk' and
-       `libltdl/m4/lt~obsolete.m4'.
-       (all-local): Ensure the stamp files is up to date.
-       (libltdl/aclocal.m4): New target, to ensure timestamp
-       consistency.  Depend on all m4 files.
-       * HACKING: Updated.
-
-       * tests/testsuite.at (PREPARE_TESTS): New variable `tst_dist',
-       default to empty.
-       * tests/nonrecursive.at, tests/recursive.at,
-       tests/standalone.at, tests/subproject.at: Use it in
-       LT_AT_BOOTSTRAP or LT_AT_MAKE, so that you can optionally test
-       redistribution within the tests.
-
-       * libltdl/m4/lt~obsolete.m4: Update documentation for aclocal
-       versions before 1.7.  Change all macros to use AC_DEFUN instead
-       of AU_DEFUN.

-       (_LT_AC_FILE_LTDLL_C): Add new fake macros for these, they
-       were used at one time in libtool.m4.
-
-       * 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.
-       (LT_AT_AUTORECONF): also detect too old Automake.

-
-       * bootstrap: always remove Makefile, to avoid triggering the

-       Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <address@hidden>.

-2005-12-07  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 [darwin]:
-       Use -single_module by default when linking shared libraries. Can
-       be overridden by specifying -multi-module or by setting the env
-       var LT_MULTI_MODULE before configure.
-       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (archive_expsyms_cmds) [darwin]:

-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (References): Do not use `@/' for the benefit
-       of older `makeinfo', break lines instead.
-
-       * Makefile.am (install-data-local): No continuation here.
-       (dist-hook): Fix copying of README.alpha to README.
-       * tests/early-libtool.at (configure.ac): Remove
-       `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE', we do not use automake in these tests.
-
-       * README, README.alpha, libtoolize.m4sh: Typos.
-       * tests/am-subdir.at, tests/duplicate_members.at: Make all
-       banners end with a dot, for symmetry.
-
-       * libtoolize.m4sh (func_copy_all_files)
-       (glob_exclude_pkgaux_files): Removed, since unused.
-
-       * libtoolize.m4sh (func_copy_cb, func_copy_some_files)
-       (func_serial_update, func_keyword_update): Fail immediately
-       if some file we may install does not exist.
-       Reported by Troy Benjegerdes <address@hidden>.
-
-2005-12-03  Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
-
-       * TODO: A bunch of items fixed. :)

-
-       * doc/libtool.texi (Invoking libtoolize): Remove mention of

-       * NEWS: Updated.
-
-2005-12-03  Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
-
-       * libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_show_eval): Rewrite use of
-       the failure expression, because the exit status of the previous
-       command may not be preserved in the next `eval' by some shells,
-       such as pdksh.
-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_extract_an_archive):
-       Use func_show_eval correctly.
-       (func_mode_link): Likewise.  Also, do not use `$status'.

-       of the file will not mess up the build rule.
-       Reported by Peter O'Gorman <address@hidden>.

-       (get_vtable): Get an `iface_id' from `lt_dlinterface_register'.
-       (get_vtable): Rewrite to catch up with lt_dlhandle_iterate
-       interface change.  Append dot only after w32 path conversion
-       so it works on cygwin managed mounts.
-
-       * libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinterface_free): New

-
-       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,

-       compensate.

-       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

-       * Makefile.maint: Adjust to compensate.
-       * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR): Adjust.

-       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...

-       (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

-       $top_srcdir/Makefile.am, along with proxy rules in sub-Makefiles,

-
-       * doc/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Removed.  All rules moved...
-       * Makefile.am: ...to here and adjusted to run from $top_builddir.

-       simplify with respect to removing much of the make recursion.

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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.

-
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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.

-       I assume that it is okay to have undefined symbols in convenience

-       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:

-
-       Preserving the installed timestamps for libltdl sources from

-
-       Using `libtoolize --copy --ltdl' was not preserving timestamps, so

-2006-06-13  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>
-
-       Fix the bugs where libtoolize needs to use `dir/file' instead of
-       `./dir/file', where ltdldir is `.', so that libtoolize correctly
-       checks for (and suggests) `config' and `m4' instead of
-       `./config' and `./m4' as auxiliary resp. macro directories.
-       The change is necessary for unambiguous naming, the chosen way
-       plays better with non-GNU make in VPATH builds.
-
-       * libtoolize.m4sh (ltdlprefix): New variable, to use as prefix
-       instead of `$ltdldir/'.

-
-       Fix several libtoolize-related bugs:
-       - Do not symlink aclocal.m4, to work around a bug in aclocal
-       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'.

-

-       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.

-       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

-       (func_mode_uninstall) [$name's extension != .lo|.la]:

-       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.

-
-       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):
-       Rewritten to work without reference to intermediate stamp-vcl
-       file.
-       * configure.ac (CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES): Change from
-       stamp-vcl to ChangeLog.

-
-2007-03-18  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>
-
-       * tests/mdemo/Makefile.am (libmlib_la_LDFLAGS): Add

-       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.

-       (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,

-       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.

-       * 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

-       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.

-       [ linux ]: Set it to `yes' for Sun C++ 5.9.
-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): If we link

-
-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms) [ osf5 ]:

-
-       * libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Fix detection of new enough

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

-       generated shell functions.
-
-       * tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_NOINST_EXEC_CHECK): New macro, like

-       (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS): Add cache variables to tests that
-       require the linker to work.  For shlibpath_overrides_runpath,
-       this also changes the semantics to let the result from the C
-       compiler take precedence.
-       * tests/no-executables.at (AC_NO_EXECUTABLES): New file.
-       * Makefile.am: Update.

-       * HACKING: Document func_echo_all.
-       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4: Use it within backticks that appear in
-       eval-ed variables.  Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
-2008-11-24  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>

-       * tests/lt_dladvise.at (lt_dlopenadvise library loading):
-       Likewise.
-       * tests/need_lib_prefix.at (enforced lib prefix): Likewise.
-       Report by Roumen Petrov.
-
-       Relax link-order2 test for systems with partial wrong order.
-       * tests/link-order2.at (Link order of deplibs.): On w32 (and
-       others, e.g., AIX), the wrongly linked executable picks up only
-       one instance of the bad function instead of two; relax the test
-       to accept this; we still require the right link order with the
-       correctly linked executable.
-       Reported by Roumen Petrov and others.
-
-2008-11-23  Roumen Petrov  <address@hidden>
-           Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>

-       tests/search-path.at, tests/shlibpath.at, tests/static.at,
-       tests/stresstest.at, tests/template.at, tests/testsuite.at:
-       Use $EXEEXT throughout, except in Makefile.am snippets where

-       care of the extension.
-       Reports by Roumen Petrov and Alon Bar-Lev.
-
-2008-11-23  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>

-       ARGS-OR-STATUS-ADJUST, for command-line arguments and/or exit
-       status flattening.  Rewrite to prefer the executable with the

-       expected exit status, not against zero, when determining whether
-       this may be a cross-compilation-induced result.

-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src)
-       [__MINGW32CE__]: Do not use errno, do not include errno.h and
-       remove calls related to errno when using the mingw32ce compiler.

-
-       No libm in WinCE.

-
-       No need to prepend $progname with './'.
-       * libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_dirname_and_basename): $ECHO
-       copes with leading hyphens now, so do not mangle $progname any
-       more.
-
-       Revenge of the $ECHO. Kill most uses of Xsed.
-       * libltdl/config/general.m4sh: Replace all uses of `$ECHO "X..."
-       | $Xsed' with `$ECHO "..." | $SED', and employ further trivial
-       simplifications.  Replace $ECHO with echo where appropriate.
-       (func_echo_all): New function.

-       * tests/search-path.at (sys_lib_search_path): Autotest needs at
-       least one AT_CHECK executed in a test group.  So if we haven't
-       found -lz anywhere, as may happen with cross-compilers, skip the
-       test.
-       * THANKS: Update.
-       Report by Alon Bar-Lev.
-
-       Fix execute mode test to actually expose cwrapper failures.

-
-2008-10-05  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>
-
-       Atomic shared library install permissions on HP-UX.
-       The HP-UX 11 runtime linker fails to mmap shared libraries
-       without execute permissions.  Fixing them with postinstall_cmds

-       library being installed.
-
-       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (install_override_mode): New LT_DECL.
-       (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*]: Set it.

-       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

-       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

-       initialise ltdl_LIBOBJS and ltdl_LTLIBOBJS.
-       * libtoolize.m4sh (func_fixup_Makefile): Substitute ltdl_LIBOBJS
-       and ltdl_LTLIBOBJS for LIBOBJS and LTLIBOBJS during copying

-       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.

-
-       * libtoolize.m4sh: Set opt_ltdl whenever seen_ltdl is set
-       so that libtoolize behaves as though --ltdl was passed even
-       if it wasn't as long as LTDL_INIT (or equivalent) was seen
-       in configure.ac.  Adjust redundant '$opt_ltdl || $seen_ltdl'

-       * libtoolize.m4sh (func_scan_files): Be sure to set the

-       * libltdl/loaders/dlopen.c (vm_open) [!LTDL_DLOPEN_SELF_WORKS]:
-       Fail for dlopen(NULL), so that the preopen loader is used.  This
-       fixes mdemo-exec.test failures on AIX where dlopen(NULL)
-       succeeds but dlsym resolves no symbol.

-
-       * tests/configure-iface.at: Ensure LTDLINCL is expanded
-       before CPPFLAGS, so that even CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
-       won't make the tests prefer an installed ltdl.h over the
-       in-package one.

-       for nmedit and dsymutil with AC_CHECK_TOOL, use the linker flag
-       -exported_symbols_list in preference to nmedit if it is available.
-       Drop support for xlc, it is probably broken.
-       * tests/template.at [darwin]: Skip this test, I can not find a way

-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       maint: don't leak developer GREP, SED etc into distribution file.

-       (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.
-       (libtoolize, tests/defs): Use configure_edit.
-       * HACKING (Release Procedure): Remove the note to workaround the
-       bug fixed by this changeset.
-       * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention that this bug is now fixed.
-       Reported by Joerg Sonnenberger.
-
-       maint: rearrange Makefile.am in preparation for a follow-up patch.
-       * Makefile.am (Libtool scripts.): Move this section below the
-       `Bootstrap.' section...
-       (libtoolize.in): ...except this one which is generated at
-       bootstrap time, and was added into the `Bootstrap.' section.

-       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.

-       maint: edit-readme-alpha shouldn't try to re-edit during dist.
-       * libltdl/config/edit-readme-alpha: If README is non-writable

-       with a warning (to help diagnose cases where the heuristic is
-       not correct).  However, if README has already been edited to

-       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src:main): Call
-       lt_update_exe_path before lt_update_lib_path, to ensure that the
-       temporary rpath values (which include the OBJDIRs of uninstalled
-       libtool libraries) precede installation and final -rpath directories.
-       (func_emit_wrapper): Prepend $dllsearchpath to PATH before prepending

-       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"

-       tests: avoid spurious pic_flag test failure on HP-UX 10.20.
-       * tests/pic_flag.at (override pic_flag at configure time):

-       the test.
-
-       tests: fix localization test for GCC on HP-UX 11.00.
-       * tests/localization.at (localized compiler messages): Be sure
-       to switch the locale only for the actual compiler commands, so
-       we don't pick up warnings from helper tools such as diff which
-       may not have the locale installed.
-
-       Avoid leaking make flags into testsuite results.
-       * tests/defs.m4sh: Unset MFLAGS, MAKEFLAGS, MAKELEVEL, __MKLVL__

-
-       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

-       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.
-

-
-       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

-
-       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 @address@hidden
-       * 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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       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  <address@hidden>
-
-       Simplify recent configure quoting portability workaround.

-       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Drop symbols
-       starting with __gnu_lto.
-       (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [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.

-
-       Skip `enhanced shell option appending' test when not available.

-       _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

-
-2010-06-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       Add func_append test cases for smart and retarded implementations.

-
-       Use a real XSI compliant func_split_short_opt substitution.
-       * libtool/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_SHELL_FEATURES): Remove
-       test ${foo:n:m} substrings, instead adding a ${foo%??} check
-       to the existing XSI tests.
-       (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Remove the ${foo:n:m} based
-       func_split_short_opt substitution in favour of a properly
-       XSI compliant substitution.
-       Suggested by Paolo Bonzini.
-
-2010-06-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
-
-       Add func_append_quoted and do inline func_append substitutions.
-       * libtool/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace all occurrences of
-       `foo="$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.

-
-       Use TAB-SPACE in preference to SPACE-TAB.
-       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): Some editors
-       might optimise away the SPACE in SPACE-TAB sequences, so use
-       TAB-SPACE just in case.
-       Reported by Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>
-
-       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

-       (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.
-       (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Use it to replace the portable shell
-       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.

+       * 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.

+       * 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: avoid spurious test failure due to library mode on HP-UX.
+       * tests/help.at (debug tracing): Use $lt_INSTALL not cp for

+
+       tests: fix localization test for GCC on HP-UX 11.00.
+       * tests/localization.at (localized compiler messages): Be sure

+
+       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):

+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       archive-in-archive.at passes with Microsoft lib.
+       * tests/archive-in-archive.at: Tighten test to check that the desired

+       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

+
+       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@

+       (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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>

+

+
+       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.

+       * libtool/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace all occurrences of

+       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

+       (_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

+
+       Fix portability regressions in today's earlier changeset.
+       * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): `sed -i' is not

+       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

+       implementation.
+       (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Use it to replace the portable shell
+       versions of the functions above with equivalent XSI

+       supports that.
+       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace hand written shell code

+
+       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.
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl Interface): Updated.
+       * NEWS: Updated.

+       * README: Document the need for GNU make to build Libtool.
+       Point the user to the doc/notes.txt file.  In the examples, use

+       * 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

+
+       * 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

+       Further, also try an installed `wrong' binary.
+       Avoid failing test bits on AIX without runtimelinking and on

+
+       * Makefile.am (doc_libtool_TEXINFOS): Renamed from...

+
+       * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Fix the check for

+2007-02-19  Ralf Wildenhues  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Fix detection of new enough

+
+       Fix spurious testsuite failures on AIX due on NFS mounts due to

+
+       * tests/testsuite.at (LT_AT_NOINST_EXEC_CHECK): New macro, like

+       The change is necessary for unambiguous naming, the chosen way

+       - 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.

+
+       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.

+       * NEWS: Updated.

+       and if not, assume the name lister is BSD nm compatible.
+       (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): If the name lister uses the
+       dumpbin interface, adjust the test to find a working
+       global_symbol_pipe.
+       * doc/libtool.texi: Document $NM to possibly be MS
+       dumpbin compatible, and also document the format of the

+
+       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

+
+2005-04-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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.

+
+       * tests/demo-relink.test, tests/depdemo-relink.test: SKIP, don't

+
+       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.

+
+       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').

+
+       * tests/pdemo-inst.test: pdemo-inst should depend on pdemo-make.
+       * 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.

+       * NEWS: Updated.

+       Without this change, the distributed libtool tarball has a

+       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:

+       * 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.

+
+       * config/ltmain.in (func_generate_dlsyms): Addresses in

+       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

+
+       * config/ltmain.in (func_echo): Except for multi-line warnings and

+
+       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.

+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * tests/Makefile.am: Use the same CPP, F77, CXX and CXXFLAGS

+
+2004-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * config/ltmain.in (func_quote_for_eval): Set a return value to

+       (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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * config/ltmain.in (func_quote_for_eval): Factor out the ugly

+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Simplification:

+
+2004-09-14  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBALS_SYMBOLS): Fix a typo I made when

+
+2004-09-12  Brad  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Fixes for the OpenBSD support
+
+2004-09-12  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+
+       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.

+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): The linker distinguishes

+
+       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
+       address@hidden/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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (clean-ltmain-sh): Using '==' to test for equality
+       in a shell script is not portable. Use '=' instead.
+
+2004-09-05  Andreas Schwab  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_WITH_LTDL): Remove excess quoting in argument of

+
+       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

+
+       * NEWS: Merge changes from branch-1-5.

+
+2004-08-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Cheap tricks): Escape the `@' for texinfo.
+
+2004-08-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Cheap tricks): Fix the instructions for making

+       version checking code.
+
+2004-08-26  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       The Grand Renaming.  In preparation for libtool-2.0, move all of
+       the many and varied m4 symbols accumulated by libtool over the
+       years, considering also that modern autoconf can detect unexpanded
+       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

+

+
+2004-08-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlforeachfile): LT_SYS_LIBSEARCH_PATH is not

+
+       * bootstrap: Remove `-f Makefile.am' now that we have an actual
+       Makefile to build ltmain.sh.
+       Reported by Noah Mish <address@hidden>
+
+2004-08-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * bootstrap: Run the bootstrap rules from a file named Makefile,
+       copied from Makefile.am for fresh checkouts.
+
+2004-08-05  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): Require ltmain.sh using
+       using Autoconf's new AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
+
+2004-08-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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
+       <address@hidden>.
+
+2004-08-03  Jacob Meuser  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 [darwin]: Don't use -all_load.
+
+2004-08-01  Maciej W. Rozycki  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (LT_AC_PROG_SED): Set SED when running from cache as
+       well.
+
+2004-07-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       My thanks to Alexandre Duret-Lutz <address@hidden> 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Make sure that dependency libraries of -dlpreopened
+       libraries are propogated properly.
+
+2004-07-23  Joe Orton  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Treat bsdi5* like bsdi4*.
+
+2004-07-22  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+

+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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
+       lt_dlpreload_open loading.
+       (LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): Adjust to hook into preloaded
+       symbols from the "@PROGRAM@" originator.
+       * tests/demo/dlmain.c (main): Use mangled preloaded_symbols symbol.
+       * 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

+       but are outside the usual -L -l, -R etc that can be used in
+       dependency_libs. Any unusual flags in dependency_libs cause recent

+
+       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

+       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!

+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4: Remove newlines from lt_ld_extra, so

+
+2004-03-14  Michael Pruett  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS0 [irix]: Define

+
+2004-03-11  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (link_all_deplibs,darwin): Link libraries in the

+2004-03-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Autoconf and LTLIBOBJS): The correct version

+
+2004-03-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Using Automake): Cite correct Automake version

+
+2004-03-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in: Remove --ltdl-tar.  It doesn't work with the
+       current implementation, and seems more or less pointless.
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Invoking libtoolize): Updated.
+       * NEWS: Updated.
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: This manual has not been maintained properly
+       for a number of years.  Much of what it said was outdated, or
+       plain wrong with reference to modern autotools.  This change
+       represents a first pass edit to clean up the obviously wrong.
+
+2004-03-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Dumb typos fixed.

+       option.
+
+       * ltmain.in (IFS): Move '\n' to beginning of IFS so that emacs
+       doesn't offer to strip trailing ' \t' on every save.
+
+       * ltmain.in: Add missing --help doc for --preserve-dup-deps.
+
+2004-02-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

+
+       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.
+       * NEWS: Updated.
+
+2004-02-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * commit (SHELL): Set it explicitly, incase some madman is using
+       tcsh as their login shell :-b
+
+2004-02-15  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Rename shrext to shrext_cmds.
+
+2004-02-13  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * commit (MKSTAMP): Look for mkstamp in the right place.
+
+2004-02-12  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+       Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>,
+           Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove config/mailnotify after all; it
+       is of no use in a distribution tarball.
+
+2004-02-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * commit: Fix cut-n-paste error.
+
+       * commit: Completely change CVS/Root->name sed script to actually

+
+       * commit: Improve CVS/Root->name sed script to work when :ext: is

+
+       * commit: Mail a nicer commit notification.
+
+2004-02-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+       * bootstrap: Remove vcl.tmp, otherwise it can interfere with make.

+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (infer_tag): Move tag inferrence to a shell function.
+       Also test $base_compile against $CC with escaped arguments. Bug
+       reported by Geoff Keating <address@hidden>.
+
+2004-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Manually make config.guess
+       and config.sub executable after they are installed as _DATA.
+       We can't use _SCRIPTS because the various program name
+       transforms may be applied to them.
+       (dist_pkgdata_DATA): List config.guess and config.sub here
+       (pkgdata_SCRIPTS): instead of here.
+
+2003-02-03  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Create temporary directory under a strict umask
+       rather than running chmod afterwards, preventing a race
+       condition where the directory could be replaced with a symbolic
+       link in the time between the two commands.
+
+2004-01-31  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG_STATUS_DECLARE): Change `echo to
+       `$echo, causes problems when builtin echo is broken. Reported
+       by Ralf Wildenhues <address@hidden>.
+
+2004-01-27  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       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 address@hidden 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS: Include 1.5.2 release information.
+
+2004-01-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+2004-01-21  Nick Hudson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4: Quote shrext as it is evaled in ltmain.
+
+2004-01-11  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/xfunc_copy/Xfunc_copy.
+       Now the test can actually succeed sometimes.
+
+2004-01-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in: Break out of the command argument parse loop when
+       -- is encountered.
+
+2004-01-08  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in (func_copy_all_files): s/test "x/test "X/ to keep
+       tests/sh.test happy.
+
+2004-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in (seen_gettext): Removed unused variable.
+
+2004-01-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): Don't assume the existence of
+       aclocal.m4.  Make the comment more descriptive.
+       Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+       Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * .cvsignore: Ignore stamp-vcl created by the Makefile.
+
+2004-01-02  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
+       Joe Orton  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS: Next release will be in 2004.
+
+2003-12-31  Scott James Remnant  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+       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

+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>.
+
+       * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): AS_HELP_STRING was introduced after

+
+2003-11-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlhandle_find): New function to find a handle

+
+2003-11-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  Marius Vollmer  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): libltdl does in fact load

+2003-11-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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,

+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4  (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [linux]: Include

+
+2003-11-09  Peter O'Gorman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+       * Makefile.am (install-data-local): Wipe out old installation

+
+       * libtoolize.in (func_scan_files): If libtoolize is run before

+
+       * tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo/configure.ac,

+       (fnqualify): Subsumed into find_executable.
+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [cygwin*, mingw*]:
+       when extracting symbols from an import lib (occurs if

+

+
+       Start to eliminate the double run of configure in a fresh CVS

+       * 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,

+
+       * m4/libtool.m4 (AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD): For MinGW, reverted DLL

+

+
+2003-10-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+

+       (LIBTOOLIZE): Use a dummy script to prevent the installed

+       config.guess and config.sub.
+
+       * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR, AC_CONFIG_TESTFILES): Comment

+
+2003-10-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2003-10-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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

+
+       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.

+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (dyld): Save the error from the first lookup
+       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.

+
+       * ltmain.in: add code for a binary wrapper

+       Make sure that --mode=clean gets shell wrapper and
+       binary wrapper.  When sourcing the shell wrapper,

+       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

+2002-12-30  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Copy the section

+       -Wl,-mfoo simply passes -mfoo to the linker. If there is a better
+       solution, please let me know what it is.

+
+       * 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.

+
+       * 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

+
+2002-11-18  Andreas Jaeger  <address@hidden>, Bo Thorsen  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Do not change the PATH in the wrappers: let them
+       launch the real binary using its path.
+
+2002-11-18  Kevin Ryde  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Library tips): Note array dimensions.
+
+2002-11-18  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: Add --mode=* to every example using libtool.
+
+2002-11-03  Ossama Othman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: add support for installing into temporary
+       staging area (e.g. 'make install DESTDIR=...')
+
+2002-11-03  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Install mode): document new
+       -inst-prefix option.
+
+2002-11-02  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (-XCClinker): New flag passes a linking option
+       directly to the compiler driver without appending ${wl}.
+
+2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in [aix]: Be sure to deal with xlc_r, cc_r and other
+       compiler variants.
+
+2002-10-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): Corrected sense of "file not

+
+2002-10-24  Ossama Othman  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Support compiler names matching g++*
+
+2002-10-23  Bob Friesenhahn  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Removed old Windows cruft.
+       * libtool.m4: Adapted pw32 to be like Cygwin/MinGW.
+
+2002-10-23  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       ltmain.in: Do not add 1 to the version under IRIX, it is
+       not necessary.
+
+2002-10-15  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): GCC now checks -shared to
+       create a dll for Windows targets.
+
+2002-09-24  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Fixed a few spelling errors.
+
+2002-09-17  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: Commented out access() call that checks for a

+       in every case.
+
+2002-09-09  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Custom $symcode for Tru64 UNIX to catch 'Q',
+       read-only constants.
+
+2002-09-09  Rainer Orth  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltdl.m4 & libltdl/ltdl.c: Port fully to native Win32 API.
+
+2002-07-31  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       * f77demo/.cvsignore: New file, forgotten in the last commit.
+
+2002-07-31  Eric Lindahl  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Added support for the new F77

+       (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.
+       * bootstrap: Add f77demo directory to the list to be processed.
+       * Makefile.am: Add support for FFLAGS and FLIBS.
+       * tests/Makefile.am: Add new Fortran tests.
+       * tests/f77demo-*.test: New files.
+       * f77demo/configure.ac, f77demo/cprogram.c, f77demo/fooc.c
+       * f77demo/foof.f, f77demo/foo.h, f77demo/fprogram.f
+       * f77demo/Makefile.am, f77demo/README: New files.
+
+2002-07-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _LT_AC_LOCK): Use

+       AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, necessary for autoconf 2.53.
+
+2002-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>

+
+2002-06-21  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2002-06-20  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

+
+2002-05-31  Charles Wilson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * tests/build-relink2.test: look for installed libl3.la
+       in $prefix/lib/ as well as $prefix/lib/extra/.
+
+2002-05-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2002-05-02  Fritz Elfert  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS): Modify archive_expsym_cmds

+       * ltmain.in (specialdeplibs) [cygwin]: Be careful about

+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_MAX_CMD_LEN): Change the

+
+2001-11-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtoolize.in: The test for whether AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is defined

+
+2001-11-27  Donald D. Anderson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Treat freebsd like openbsd, in that -lc/-lc_r should

+
+2001-11-27  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>
+
+       With help from Michael Matz <address@hidden>:

+
+2001-11-15  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: quote LTCC because autoconf AC_PROG_CC_STDC

+
+2001-11-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2001-11-15   Mo DeJong  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Place parens around a generated relink_command

+
+2001-10-31  Raja R Harinath  <address@hidden>

+
+2001-10-28  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+2001-10-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+       Reported by Kevin Ryde <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltdl.m4 (AC_WITH_LTDL): New macro to add `--with-included-ltdl'

+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE): s/INCLTDL/LTDLINCL/ for

+
+2001-09-22  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+       use shl_load exclusively if found.
+
+2001-09-22  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2001-09-22  Tor Lillqvist  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 [mingw* cygwin*]: Small improvement for mingw-hosted

+       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

+       * ltmain.in: Check for .rc files.
+       * NEWS: Updated.
+
+       * ltmain.in: Add a space to $base_compile in the case statement,

+
+2001-09-22  Albert Chin-A-Young  <address@hidden>

+
+2001-09-21  Albert Chin  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Don't include main() when testing for command to

+       take the address of main (e.g. HP-UX aCC).
+
+       * libtool.m4: Some uses of $GXX were unquoted, but GXX is either

+
+2001-09-13  Assar Westerlund  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2001-09-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+

+
+2001-09-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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!

+       when linking a shared library with gcc calling /usr/ccs/bin/ld (eg.

+       conjunction with -no-undefined!
+
+       From Michael Pruett <address@hidden>:
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): `0' valued arguments to

+       Cleanup of libltdl:

+2001-03-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Remove the code for stripping duplicate deplibs

+
+       * libtool.m4 [netbsd*] (deplibs_check_method, file_magic_cmd,
+       file_magic_test_file): Removed inappropriate duplicate
+       definitions; these variables are set in AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD.
+
+       * libtool.m4 (lt_cv_file_magic_cmd): Don't use '${MAGIC_CMD}' or
+       '${OBJDUMP}'; Solaris' /bin/sh loses with `}' in cache files.
+       (ac_cv_path_MAGIC_CMD): Renamed to lt_cv_path_MAGIC_CMD.
+
+2000-09-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (MAGIC_CMD): Don't use MAGIC, since BSD versions of

+       Reported by Marc Espie <address@hidden>
+
+2000-09-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/PLATFORMS: Updated.
+       * demo/configure.in:  Revert to the `libtool --features' test.
+       * 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
+       generating libtool immediately in configure.in, rather than
+       deferring part of the creation until config.status runs.
+
+2000-09-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: Removes references to ltconfig, and a small
+       amount of tidying up to compensate.
+
+2000-09-15  Nick Hudson  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (netbsd): Improved support.
+
+2000-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       From Paul Sokolovsky <address@hidden>
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Oh man!  Third time lucky.

+
+2000-09-12  Michael Matz  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in:  Be careful about filenames with multiple `.'s in

+
+2000-09-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Fixed incorrect use of

+
+2000-09-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       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

+       * ltmain.in: Don't do a version check against ltconfig.
+       * tests/assign.test: Remove reference to ltconfig.

+
+2000-09-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+

+
+       * ltconfig.in (need_lc): Preserve allow_undefined_flag.
+
+       * tests/*.test (CONFIG_SITE): Ultrix's /bin/sh fails on

+       sure we pick a non-existent file.
+
+       * Makefile.am (libtool, clibtool): Pass CONFIG_SHELL along with

+       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'.
+

+       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.

+
+1999-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

+       and recompile.
+       (cygwin, archive_expsym_cmds): Make sure the ltdll source has been

+
+1999-06-20  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>

+
+1999-06-18  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>

+

+
+1999-06-16  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_close): Strangely enough, Microsoft have

+
+       * ltconfig.in (exeext): autoconf's AC_EXEEXT uses "no" to indicate

+
+       * ltconfig.in: Reordered tests to be more like configure.in's

+       * 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

+
+       * ltconfig.in (cygwin*, deplibs_check_method): Accept
+       "architecture: i386" as optional suffix, for it is printed on a
+       separate line sometimes.
+
+       * ltmain.in (cygwin*, ltdll.c): Wrap DllMain declaration in extern "C".
+
+       * ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method=file_magic): Redirect stderr to

+
+1999-04-25  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (irix*, soname_spec, library_names_spec): Missing

+       (aix4*, archive_cmds): Use -bexpall.
+       (aix4*, archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds): Use shared_flag and
+       allow_undefined_flag.
+       (aix4*, always_export_symbols): Set to yes up to AIX 4.1.*,
+       because -bexpall is supported from 4.2 on.
+       Reported by Greg Wooledge
+       <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (hpux*, hardcode_minus_L): Set to yes.

+       Reported by David Kaelbling <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (irix*, sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): /usr/local/lib
+       is not searched by default.  /usr/lib is searched before /lib.
+       * ltconfig.in (irix*, sys_lib_search_path_spec): /usr/lib is
+       searched before /lib.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (irix5*, need_lib_prefix, need_version): Set to no,

+       * ltconfig.in (irix*, osf*, deplibs_check_method): Use pass_all.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (old_LDFLAGS, old_LIBS): Save and write to comments

+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct, hc-libflag, hc-libpath, hc-minusl):

+
+1999-04-12  John David Anglin  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (shl_close): shl_t was correct here...

+
+1999-04-12  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Invoking ltconfig): Document environment

+
+1999-04-11 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/configure.in: check for shl_load in libdld
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (shl_close, shl_sym): use (shl_t *) instead of shl_t
+       * ltconfig.in (check for gcc): removed a bogus line,
+         check for shl_load in libdld
+       * ltmain.in: added a warning to the header of the .la file
+         to warn users against deleting the file,
+         link shared against static libraries if
+         deplibs_check_method == pass_all
+
+1999-04-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD, AC_PROG_NM): When looking for programs,
+       try $ac_exeext too, so that they're found on DJGPP/MS-DOS.
+       * ltconfig.in: Likewise.
+       Reported by Robert S. Maier <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (Usage): Removed --enable-dlopen-self.
+       Reported by Pavel Roskin <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Moved sysv4 before sysv4.*.
+       (symcode): Brian's overrider is specific to sysv4, not sysv4*.
+
+1999-04-09 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS, README: Motorola System V 4 support
+       * doc/PLATFORMS: added mk88-motorola-sysv4

+         to support mk88-motorola-sysv4
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: some cleanups in the libltdl documentation
+
+1999-04-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (--fallback-echo): Do not put an inline document and
+       an exec in the same if construct; otherwise the inline document
+       may not be removed.
+       * ltmain.in (--fallback-echo): Likewise.
+       Reported by John David Anglin <address@hidden>
+
+       * dryrun.test: It would still fail at random times, because `cp'
+       and `mv' are not guaranteed to preserve the timestamps of the
+       installed files.  Instead of preserving them, just remove them
+       before the dry uninstall test.  Redirect dry-run output to stderr,
+       so that it can be easily separated from the regular output.
+
+1999-04-07 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS: support for moved libraries
+       * libtool.m4: another DJGPP fix
+
+1999-04-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/PLATFORMS: Updated to 1.3 for all platforms I've got.  I'll
+       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 $objdir, instead
+       of creating it in ../tests.
+       * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Removed.
+
+1999-04-06  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * tests/dryrun.test: We cannot rely on setting LIBTOOL, because
+       automake may use sub-makes, and the setting will not be propagated
+       to them on some makes.  Instead, create a dry version of libtool
+       and switch between it and the original one before and after dry
+       runs.
+       * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added libtool-*, created by
+       dryrun.test.
+
+       * tests/dryrun.test: Use cmp instead of diff.
+       (before, after): Create them within ../tests.
+       (libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
+       SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available.  For dry
+       runs, use "$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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
+

+
+       * NEWS: improved support for AIX and HP/UX
+
+1999-04-03 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+
+1999-04-01 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: always link a library before its dependency libs

+
+1999-03-30 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (aix4*, collect2name): make sure collect2 exists

+       Reported by Erez Zadok <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dladdsearchdir): Forgot to mallocate the

+       * libtool.spec: removed, it was outdated
+       * Makefile.am: removed libtool.spec
+       * ltmain.in: use TMPDIR when possible, create a subdirectory

+
+1999-03-25  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in ($PATH):  Expand any tildes in the users path to the

+       evaluation.
+
+1999-03-24 Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+

+       * 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  <address@hidden>

+
+1999-03-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/configure.in: the sed expression for finding the shared

+         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

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+
+1999-03-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (dependency_libs): There is no reason to infer that

+
+1999-03-18  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+1999-03-14  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path_spec,
+       sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): fix thinko in variable names; add

+
+       * ltmain.in (exclude_expsyms): exclude symbols before sorting,

+
+       * 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;

+
+       * ltconfig.in (aix3*, aix4*): GNU ld on AIX is very broken: it

+       suggesting the user not to use it and disable shared libraries.
+
+1999-03-13  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_to_cdecl): was reset before trying

+       (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

+
+1999-03-12  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed FILENAME_MAX since LTDL_FILENAME_MAX

+
+1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: when building a library it doesn't make
+         sense to remove a relinked program ("lt-" prefix)
+
+1999-03-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): cannot return str when it's NULL
+       because of const correctness
+
+1999-03-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+1999-03-10  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>

+       * libltdl/Makefile.am: set version info for libltdl.la
+       * libltdl/configure.in: don't check whether

+         the need to use --enable-ltdl*
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: minor cleanups, allocate the line cache

+
+1999-03-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): some preprocessors choke if the `#'

+
+       * NEWS: updated.
+
+1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (tests): documented demo-nofast.test and
+         renamed cdemo* to demo*
+
+1999-03-08  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+       * TODO: scheduled some items for next release/future

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (archive_expsym_cmds, solaris, without_gnu_ld):
+       $lib.exp already starts with $objdir/
+       Reported by Godmar Back <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * TODO: added items for next alpha release, ILD etc.
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed unnecessary check from presym_sym,

+         set deplibs for lt_dlopen(NULL)
+
+1999-02-24  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): sed `10q' is faster than `11,$d'
+
+1999-02-22  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: fix typos in my last change (s/ocmpile/compile/)
+
+1999-02-21  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: avoid duplication of -L switches, it sometimes breaks

+
+       * ltconfig.in (freebsd-elf*, need_version, need_lib_prefix): no

+
+1999-02-20  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: remove ticks from menu items; it breaks TeX
+       Reported by Erez Zadok <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
+       where appropriate, when dlopening a non-libtool library
+
+1999-02-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (archive{,_sym}_commands): Be careful not to
+       re-export the dll entry points address@hidden, address@hidden and
+       address@hidden to avoid bugs with the wrong entry
+       function being called with inter-dll dependencies.
+       Reported by DJ Delorie <address@hidden>
+       * 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...

+       * libltdl/ltdl.h: use __P macro for lt_dlmalloc/free
+       * libtool.m4: new macro AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN: checks for dlopen

+       * 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

+       * mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
+       * mdemo/main.c: demonstrate lt_dlopen(0)
+
+1999-02-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * demo/dlmain.c (_WIN32): The lt_symlist structure is now const,

+       Here is a new horrible temporary hack to prevent helldl from SEGVing

+
+1999-02-14  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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)
+

+         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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: don't try to read objdir/libname.la before it is

+
+       * ltmain.in: create libname.lai at link time, not at install time,

+       Reported by Akim Demaille <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): strcmp filenames was reversed
+
+1999-02-11  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * autogen: libltdl needs autoheader

+         (we're demonstrating static linking, not debugging)
+       * tests/demo*: ditto
+       * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): documented new lt_dlopen(NULL)

+       * 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

+
+1999-02-10  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, osf3*, osf4*): do not use

+       (uts4*): remove dot between .so and versuffix
+
+1999-02-08  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): use

+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: according to Marcus Sundberg <address@hidden>
+         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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+1999-02-04  Godmar Back  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): missing space for terminator when
+       allocating memory for shlib_ext
+
+1999-02-03  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): tmp would be trashed if shlib_ext
+       was longer than 3 characters
+
+1999-02-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>

+       Reported by Jeff Garzik <address@hidden>
+
+1999-01-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+1999-01-27  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: allocate the variables in lt_dlopen() dynamically
+
+1999-01-25  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+1999-01-22  Edouard G. Parmelan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * THANKS: Added Chris Laas <address@hidden>
+
+       From Chris Laas <address@hidden>
+       * ltmain.in (compile):  corrected a typo in compile mode which

+       space.
+
+1999-01-21  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+       * demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): use instead of -dlpreopen
+       (STATIC): use $(STATIC), not @STATIC@

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>

+1999-01-20  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+

+
+       * cdemo/main.c (main): use K&R definition syntax

+
+       * 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

+
+       * demo/dlmain.c (main): add missing const to declaration of name
+

+
+       * 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

+       define it to an empty list if libtool won't generate it, so as to

+       maybe this is better than failing to link the program...

+       * doc/libtool.texi: document what `unknown' means
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlpreopen_default): reverted to a macro

+
+1999-01-15  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): added a second '$'

+         EXTRA_DIST (automake distributes them by default)
+
+1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+1999-01-14  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+

+
+1999-01-14  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c: added variable symbol prefix, added user-defined

+
+       * 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

+       * 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
+

+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (NM): PATH search was not updated like in

+       (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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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,

+       (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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+       * configure.in (ltdl-install): Fixed up the indentation so that
+       `configure --help' is pretty again.
+
+1999-01-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): missing strlen in bound test
+
+1999-01-09  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_new_commands): Documented
+       this ltcofig variable.
+
+1999-01-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>.
+
+1999-01-05  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS: new BeOS support
+       * THANKS: added Joseph Beckenbach

+
+1998-12-31  Joseph Beckenbach III <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: added support for BeOS
+       * ltmain.in (shlibpath_var): added a workaround for

+
+1998-12-31  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>

+         a.out and ELF platforms for NetBSD
+
+1998-12-29  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+1998-12-26  Erez Zadok  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: support i486-ncr-sysv4.3.03
+       shared libraries.
+

+
+1998-12-25  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>
+       * THANKS: added Joel Klecker <address@hidden>
+
+1998-12-23  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): prepend `.' to avoid am-recursive
+       dependency hack
+
+1998-12-21  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi (Tested platforms): broken `sed' programs
+
+1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * THANKS: added Stephan Kulow; removed Gary V. Vaughan and Thomas
+       Tanner, now that they're AUTHORS
+
+1998-12-16  Stephan Kulow  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (freebsd-aout, freebsd-elf): added missing dot to
+       versuffix
+
+1998-12-16  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * PORTING: removed the text Akim Demaille converted to .texi
+
+1998-12-09  Akim Demaille  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: converted inter-library dependencies
+       instructions from PORTING
+
+1998-12-09  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: fixed some typos in archive_sym_cmds
+       * ltmain.in: replaced basename with a sed expression
+
+1998-12-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Port to SCO UnixWare 7.x.
+
+1998-12-03  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>.
+       (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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * config.guess, config.sub: imported from autoconf pre-2.13
+
+1998-11-27  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.spec (URL): point to www.gnu.org
+       (Source): point to ftp.gnu.org
+
+       * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): removed libtool.prj
+       Reported by Akim Demaille <address@hidden>
+
+1998-11-24  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (echo): avoid shell error messages when we're
+       testing for large command line support
+       Reported by Axel Thimm <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/PLATFORMS: updated last-tested release for platforms I've
+       got access to
+
+       * THANKS: added Chris P. Ross
+
+1998-11-24  Chris P. Ross  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: added recognition of the dynamic linker on BSD/OS 4.x
+       * README: added BSD/OS 4.x to the list of supported platforms
+       * doc/PLATFORMS: added BSD/OS 4.x support for various host id's
+
+1998-11-24  David Heine  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (pass_all): actively pass the flags
+
+1998-11-24  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * depdemo: added inter-library dependencies demo (doesn't work yet!)
+       * AUTHORS: added myself to the list of maintainers
+
+1998-11-22  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * NEWS: -module and libltdl
+       * mdemo/Makefile.am: ../libltdl is within $(srcdir)
+
+1998-11-18  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * PORTING: Porting instructions are in the libtool manual already
+
+       * NEWS: Mention -export-symbols and new dlpreopen
+
+1998-11-11  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (sunos*, sympat, symxfrm): remove underscore
+       prepended by the compiler
+
+1998-11-10  Toshio Kuratomi  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: re-enable deplibs
+       * ltmain.in: support deplibs, at least for GNU/Linux/x86
+       Updated to current libtool by Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+1998-11-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (link): Make the relink warning less harsh.
+
+1998-11-07  William M. Perry  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds
+
+1998-11-07  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * THANKS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan
+
+       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: updated and fixed the patches below
+
+1998-11-04  Thomas Tanner  <address@hidden>
+
+       * mdemo/*: added new demo to demonstrate building of dlopenend
+       modules
+       * tests/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo*: added some tests for mdemo
+
+1998-11-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: New flag -export-symbols; new dlpreopen system
+       * demo/dlmain.c: removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count
+
+1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: On installation, don't get confused if the same name
+       appears more than once in the list of library names.
+
+1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 @address@hidden
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in
+       archive_cmds for cygwin32.
+
+1998-11-04  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.
+       * ltmain.in: Add support for a version_type of windows.

+       * ltconfig.in: On AIX, don't treat GNU ld specially.
+
+1998-11-04  Alexandre Oliva  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+       * ltmain.in (output_obj): typo
+
+1998-11-02  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory
+       components
+
+1998-11-02  Eric Estievenart <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+
+1998-10-31  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): there are no longer quotes around

+
+       * ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Echo the result to fd 6, so that

+
+1998-09-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (link): Fix problems when building only static

+
+1998-08-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+
+       * ltmain.in: Convenience archive support.  From Ulrich Drepper.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (postinstall_commands): Change libraries to be
+       executable on Solaris in order to prevent ldd from moaning.  From
+       Julian Gosnell.
+       (whole_archive_flag_spec): New variable to shortcut convenience
+       archive expansion.  From Ulrich Drepper.
+
+1998-06-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change globs to accept forward slashes

+
+Thu May 28 18:59:08 1998  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL when invoking shell scripts.
+
+1998-05-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool
+       libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'
+       files exist.  Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
+
+1998-05-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the
+       wrapper script.
+       Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again.  If people
+       want to shoot themselves in the foot, I'd better let them do so,
+       so that people who are smart enough not to can squeeze out another
+       ounce of functionality.  From Tim Janik.
+       (version_vars): Delete dead variable.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't hardcode, at
+       last.  Reported by Jason Nordwick.
+
+       * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change a bunch of `if
+       test ...; then : ; else ...' constructs to `if test ! ...; then
+       ...', for clarity.
+
+1998-05-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (LC_ALL, LANG): Save these values and restore them
+       during execute mode.  From Pavel Kankovsky.
+       (mode): Accept strace and truss as programs that throw us into
+       execute mode.  From Pavel Kankovsky.
+
+1998-05-07  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Don't use .$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.
+       Reported by Lars Hecking.
+
+1998-04-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (maintainer-rekey): New rule to force us to change
+       Project-Version after we make a release.  This keeps all version
+       numbers in sync, rather than branching just before the release.
+       (maintainer-release, maintainer-checkin): Use maintainer-rekey.
+
+       * ltmain.in (finish): Notice when a finish command fails, so that
+       we can add it to the list of recommendations.
+
+1998-04-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Append file descriptor 5 to
+       config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that
+       ltconfig put there.  From David Taylor.
+
+1998-04-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.
+
+       * tests/quote.test (echo): Update the echo test from ../ltconfig.in.
+
+1998-04-13  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_NM): Don't override NM in the environment.
+
+1998-04-13  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/libtool.texi: A little proofreading.  From Albert

+
+1998-03-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (reload_flag): Correct a tiny bug where `--silent'
+       would still print out the reload flag.  From Stephan Kulow.
+
+1998-03-20  Ian Lance Taylor  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4: Use changequote to avoid problems with square
+       bracket patterns.
+
+1998-03-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Release 1.2.
+
+1998-03-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Rearrange some of the echos to make them more
+       consistent.
+
+1998-03-14  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create
+       a file ltconfig in the build directory.
+
+1998-03-09  Andreas Schwab  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,
+       replacing foo=`eval \\$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 $host_cpu matches
+       m68*.
+
+1998-03-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Release 1.1.
+
+       * ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently
+       they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that
+       replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x.  From Christopher Olsen.
+
+1998-02-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag
+       during compilation.
+
+1998-02-23  Brendan Kehoe  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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

+
+1998-02-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.
+
+1998-02-07  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they
+       are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).
+
+1998-02-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit
+       and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.
+
+1998-01-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'
+       isn't accepted by GCC.
+
+1998-01-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export some important
+       environment variables.  Reported by Ian Haggard.
+
+1998-01-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (runpath_var): Use instead of
+       `hardcode_runpath_var'.
+
+1998-01-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (link): Quote the definition of $echo in the wrapper
+       script.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use `--export-dynamic'
+       instead of `-export-dynamic', which is not accepted by all GNU
+       ld's.  From Eiichi Takamori.
+
+       * ltmain.in (install): Don't print silly `library stripping'
+       warnings.  Reported by François Pinard.
+
+1997-12-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Don't forget to quote the CDPATH substitution.  From
+       Tor Lillqvist.
+
+1997-12-18  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (CDPATH): Unset this environment variable
+       so that HP-UX shells, at least, don't print out the directory name
+       after a `cd' command.  From Tor Lillqvist.
+
+1997-12-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode): Change a bunch of references to
+       `$(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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 ${wl} on HP-UX
+       because link_static_flag is never evaled.  From Eric Backus.
+
+       * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.s'.  From Markus
+       F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+1997-12-01  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
+       dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly.  From Jim
+       Meyering.
+
+       * Makefile.am ($(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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 <address@hidden>.
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in: Silly me.  Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"
+       into *" $dir "*.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX.  From Mark
+       Kettenis.  It is also the default for OSF/1.
+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes.  From Mark
+       Kettenis.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not
+       double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted.  From Mark
+       Kettenis.
+
+1997-10-19  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.
+
+       * libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU
+       ld.  This prevents breakage when `$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.
+
+1997-09-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add
+       -lc to deplibs.  Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.
+
+1997-09-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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 $echo in the wrapper script.  From Alexandre
+       Oliva.
+
+       * Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead
+       of ltmain.sh.in.
+
+       * ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in.  This fixes a
+       portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!).  From Robert
+       Hoehne.
+
+1997-09-11  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular
+       objects if we did not build old libs.  Reported by Tomas Hiller.
+
+1997-09-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to
+       hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all
+       dynamic linking.  The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic
+       linking against libtool libraries.  Suggested by Bengt
+       Martensson.
+
+       * ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are
+       actually using GNU ld.  This fixes an inconsistency when running
+       ltconfig without using libtool.m4.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
+       (global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C
+       identifiers.  Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.
+
+       * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Change references from
+       hell.static to hell.debug.
+
+       * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the same Digital Unix echo test fixes as
+       the ones to ltmain.sh.in from Todd Kover.
+
+       * tests/if.test, tests/test-e.test (scripts): Add ../lineno to
+       the scripts we check.
+       * tests/if.test: Check for accidental use of test X$something rather
+       than test "X$something".
+
+1997-09-04  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval
+       statements.  Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.
+       (echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo
+       test fails on Digital Unix 4.0.  From Todd Kover.
+
+1997-08-28  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.
+       This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,
+       but no working echo program.
+
+       * tests/quote.test (echo): Change test to version that uses printf.
+       Be less strict about return results.
+
+1997-08-27  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and
+       finalize_command are always evaled.  Quote any unknown linker
+       flags we need to pass through.
+       (compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.
+       (echo): I hate Sun!  The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles
+       backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash
+       quoting using echo and sed.  So, we search for an echo that obeys
+       the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality.  Then we use `$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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells
+       cannot handle `]' in scan sets.  From Ian Dall.
+
+1997-08-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling.  Suggested
+       by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+1997-08-21  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value
+       of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work.  This
+       guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly.  Add support for
+       execute mode.
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set
+       shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled
+       executables and libraries.  Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+1997-08-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am ($(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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the
+       distribution.
+
+1997-07-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement.  Reported by
+       Akim Demaille.
+
+1997-06-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of
+       am_cv_path_ld.  From Tim Pierce.
+
+1997-06-20  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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.

+
+1997-06-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3.  From David Nugent.
+
+1997-04-25  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for
+       NetBSD.  From Tim Pierce.
+
+1997-04-16  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation
+       mode.
+
+1997-04-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error.  From
+       Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-04-05  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support
+       old-style config.guess scripts.
+
+1997-02-17  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.
+
+1997-02-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4.  From Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-02-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * doc/platforms.texi: Yaay!  We found a workaround for HP-UX
+       /bin/sh buffer overflows.  From Eric Backus.
+
+1997-02-03  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Release 0.8.
+
+1997-01-24  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/acinclude.m4 to the
+       distribution.
+
+1997-01-22  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:
+       Update the copyright completion years.
+
+1997-01-08  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: Port to IRIX 5.3, 6.2.
+
+1997-01-06  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.
+
+1996-12-12  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm.  From Mark
+       Kettenis.
+
+1996-12-09  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the
+       installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.
+
+1996-11-15  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.
+
+1996-11-10  Gordon Matzigkeit  <address@hidden>
+
+       * 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  <address@hidden>
+
+       * For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
