2001-09-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	GNU libtool 1.4.2 was released.

	* configure.in: Bumped version to 1.4.2.
	* config.sub, config.guess:  Synchronised from ftp.gnu.org.
	* NEWS: Updated.

2001-09-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>,  Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>.  Tim Van Holder  <tim.van.holder@pandora.be>

	* libtool.m4 (no_undefine_flag) [solaris*]:  Don't set this flag
	if GCC < 3.0 with native ld, which introduces a dependency on
	libgcc.a under certain circumstances, which in turn violates
	-no-undefined.  Also display a prominent configure time warning if
	the buggy combination of GCC and ld is detected.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_HEADER_ASSERT):  libltdl falls foul of this bug
	because assert requires __eprintf from libgcc.a.  This macro
	detects the combination of GCC and ld that produce this problem,
	and pretends that assert.h does not exist...
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (HAVE_ASSERT_H):  ...so that assertions can be
	disabled in libltdl.  Otherwise the library would only be useable
	when linking using gcc, or by manually adding libgcc.a to the link
	line of the application that uses libltdl.
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL):  Require AC_LIBTOOL_HEADER_ASSERT.
	* doc/PLATFORMS:  Updated.

2001-09-11  Daniel Harvey <daniel@amristar.com.au>

	* libtool.m4 (ltdll_cmds): [$]0 doesn't appear to translate through
	the script correctly, change to $''0

2001-09-11  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/configure.in (AC_CONFIG_HEADER): Use config-h.in for DOS
	compatibility.

	* libtool.m4: Add missing M4 quotation to $1 of AC_DEFUN calls.

	* libltdl/configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump libltdl version to
	1.2.
	* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdl_la_LDFLAGS):  Bump libtool library
	version info to 4:0:1.

2001-09-10  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_PATH_SEPARATOR):  Oops.  We
	really ought to set PATH_SEPARATOR in here somewhere.
	(AC_PROG_LD): Don't forget to AC_REQUIRE it!  Be careful not to
	set IFS="${IFS}$PATH_SEPARATOR" for PATH splitting, otherwise
	spaces in directory names will be lost.
	(AC_PROG_NM): Dittp.
	* ltmain.in: Default IFS once, at the start.
	Reported by Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

2001-09-10  Brad  <brad@comstyle.com>

	* ltmain.in (-lc_r): Style improvement.

	* doc/libtool.texi: Remove obsolete references to ltconfig.
	* bootstrap: Don't bother creating an empty ltconfig and then
	removing it.
	* tests/quote.test: s/ltconfig/\$0/

2001-09-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Brad <brad@comstyle.com>:
	* libtool.m4: Use Autoconf square bracket quoting style
	consistently throughout.

2001-09-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* bootstrap: Cleanup `autom4te' and `libtool' so that we don't
	get caught by something from a previous build.

	* libtool.m4 (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds) [solaris*]: Revert
	my 2001-09-06 patch.
	(no_undefined_flag)i [solaris*]: Revert Alexandre's 2001-04-11 patch.

	* libltdl/acconfig.h:  Removed.  Obsoleted with modern Automake
	(i.e. 1.4 or better).

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (foreach_dirinpath): argz_len should be a size_t.
	Reported by Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>

2001-09-06  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds) [solaris*]: Changing
	no_undefined_flag from `-z text' to `-z defs' (see entry below at
	2001-04-11  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>) has a problem.
	when linking a shared library with gcc calling /usr/ccs/bin/ld (eg.
	the gcc supplied with Solaris 8 companion CD), using the flag
	-no-undefined, shared library linking will always fail because of
	the unresolved symbols from libgcc.a.  Consequently we have to
	provide a path to libgcc.a when linking shared libraries in
	conjunction with -no-undefined!

	From Michael Pruett <mpruett@engr.sgi.com>:
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): `0' valued arguments to
	tryall_dlopen_module() must be explicitly cast to avoid compiler
	warnings on some environments.

2001-09-03  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* demo/Makefile.am (helldl):  Automake 1.4 can't find the target
	if we use helldl$(EXEEXT), and Automake 1.5 barfs unless we do.
	Using both targets to the left of the colon seems to work though!

2001-09-03  Brad  <brad@comstyle.com>

	* ltdl.m4 [AC_LTDL_SYS_DLOPEN_DEPLIBS]: Teach ltdl about the
	behavior of OpenBSD's dlopen().

2001-09-03  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Bumped version to 1.4.1a.

	GNU libtool 1.4.1 was released.

	* configure.in: Bumped version to 1.4.1.
	* config.sub, config.guess:  Synchronised from ftp.gnu.org.
	* doc/texinfo.tex: Ditto.
	* NEWS: Updated.
	* TODO: Remove fixed bugs.

	* ltdl.m4 (AC_CHECK_TYPES):  This macro was introduced in Autoconf
	2.5x.  Backported a fallback implementation (directly to ltdl.m4)
	from Autoconf 2.50, so that we can still bootstrap with Autoconf
	2.13.

	From Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>:
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen_module): Don't forget to propogate
	errors over recurse levels.

2001-09-03  Brad  <brad@comstyle.com>

	* libtool.m4 [openbsd*]: More improvements to the OpenBSD port.

	* libtool.m4 (deplibs_check_method) [aix*]: Removed redundant
	setting of this variable.

2001-09-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Albert Chin <china@thewrittenword.com>:
	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LANG_C_CONFIG) [aix4*]: Be careful with
	shared namespaces for static and shared libs.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN_SELF): If all else fails, try dld_link from GNU
	DLD.

2001-09-02  Christopher Pfisterer <cp@chrisp.de>

	* libtool.m4, ltmain.in: Linker flag and version numbering fixes
	for darwin.

2001-09-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Backported the following patches from the development branch:

	Based on a patch from Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>:
	* NEWS: updated.
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LIB_LTDL): Check for unistd.h.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: Include unistd.h if it exists.
	(LTDL_SEARCHPATH_VAR): Macro to prevent hardcoding
	"LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH".
	(LTDL_ARCHIVE_EXT): Macro to prevent hardcoding ".la".
	(archive_ext): Have only one copy of ".la" in the readonly
	segment of the compiled library.
	(find_handle_callback): Don't bother trying to dlopen the file if
	it doesn't exist.
	(find_handle): Don't bother searching for files if no search_path
	was supplied.
	(file_not_found): A new function to determine whether the last
	error was due to a file not found condition.
	(try_dlopen): Renamed from lt_dlopen() and changed to have the
	same footprint as tryall_dlopen.  This involved a minor rewrite of
	much of the internals of this function.
	(lt_dlopen): A new function wrapped arounf try_dlopen().
	(lt_dlopenext): If a file already has a suitable extension, don't
	bother adding additional extensions and trying to open those.
	Tidy up the rest of the code to prevent continued searching with
	an eventual FILE_NOT_FOUND when a genuine failure earlier in the
	search process could be legitimately reported.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (argz_create_sep): Don't forget to include the
	terminating '\0' when counting argz_len.
	(argz_create_sep): When canonicalizing argz, don't forget to copy
	the terminating '\0', incase canonicalization has shortened argz.
	(argz_stringify): Don't covert the final '\0' to a separator.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlhandle_next): Now we can loop through all
	loaded module handles as originally intended.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlseterror): Oops.  This never worked
	either, due to a pair of typos.  Now fixed.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (N_ELEMENTS):  Deleted.  How come nobody noticed
	there was no way this could have ever worked?
	(lt_dlcaller_set_data): Now that valid caller_ids must be
	non-zero, allocate an addition entry in the caller_data vector and
	use a zero valued key as the end marker.
	(lt_dlcaller_get_data): Iterate up to the end marker in one pass.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlcaller_register): Caller ids are allocated
	starting from value `1', so that clients can use a value of zero
	to indicate that libltdl has not yet initialised.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file_callback): Fix a multiple free()
	bug.
	(tryall_dlopen_module): Remove some unused variables.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinsertsearchdir): Calculate the address
	of the end of user_search_path correctly.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (rpl_argz_stringify): New fallback implementation.
	* ltdl.m4 (AC_LTDL_FUNC_ARGZ):  Test for argz_stringify in libc.
	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_argz_insertinorder): Renamed from
	lt_argz_insert to make room for...
	(lt_argz_insert): Wraps argz_insert with libltdl error handling.
	(lt_dlpath_insertdir): Insert new path elements into an
	argzized path.
	(lt_dlinsertsearchdir): New function to insert new search
	directories anywhere into user_search_path using the above.
	(lt_dladdsearchdir): Rewritten to use lt_dlpath_insertdir.
	* libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlinsertsearchdir): Prototype for export.
	* doc/libtool.texi (Libltdl interface): Document it.

2001-08-18  Brad  <brad@comstyle.com>

	* ltmain.in: Do not remove -lm from deplibs for OpenBSD.

2001-08-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Brad <brad@comstyle.com>:
	* libtool.m4 (archive_cmds) [darwin, newsos, sysv4]: Replace
	1.3 era $linkopts references with $linker_flags.

	From Brad <brad@comstyle.com>:
	* libtool.m4 [openbsd]:  OpenBSD can build modules without a `lib'
	prefix and version number.

2001-08-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	From Edouard G. Parmelan <egp@free.fr>
	* libtool.m4 [darwin, openbsd]: Fix quoting problems with
	unquoted [] expressions.

2001-07-29  Albert Chin-A-Young  <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Prefer shl_load to dlopen	on HP-UX because
	dlopen won't work properly without a patch.

2001-07-12  Dan McNichol  <mcnichol@austin.ibm.com>

	From albert chin <china@thewrittenword.com>
	* libtool.m4: Fix AIX run-time-linking when using gcc.

	From albert chin <china@thewrittenword.com>
	* ltmain.in: Fix a case where the lockfile is not removed, thus
	causing libtool to loop forever waiting for it to be removed.

2001-07-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Revert to 1.3.x
	sematics, and always build static libs when the host machine
	cannot build shared libs.  Even if static libs were explicitly
	disabled.

	* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_GLOBAL_SYMBOL_PIPE) [HPUX]: Define
	lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_c_name_address to be a sed expression
	for mangling the output of the symbol pipe into a brace delimited
	C declaration of symbol name and address.
	* ltmain.in: Use it to generate the fooS.c symbol name to address
	map.

2001-06-30  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	Porting test improvements from multi-language-branch:
	* tests/defs: Find and set the value of CC probed by libtool.m4
	* tests/link-2.test: Use a .lo wrapper script, and the value of
	CC set by defs instead of hardcoding gcc.
	* tests/link.test: Use the value of CC set by defs instead of
	hardcoding gcc.
	* tests/quote.test: Ditto.
	* tests/suffix.test: Ditto.

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK) [aix*]: Always set
	lt_prog_compiler_wl to `-Wl'.

	From Tim Van Holder <tim.van.holder@pandora.be>
	* tests/suffix.test: Typo in 2nd for loop.

	From Bruno Haible <haible@ilog.fr>
	* libtool.m4:  undefine the m4 builtin `symbols', so that the
	string `symbols' can be used in the rest of the code without
	causing errors with autoconf-2.13.

	From "Golubev I. N." <gin@mo.msk.ru>
	* tests/Makefile.am (CPPLAGS): Typo. s/CPPLAGS/CPPFLAGS.

	* mdemo/Makefile,am (foo1_la_LIBADD): Add libsub.la, since foo1
	does use symbols from libsub.la -- only platforms that allow
	undefined symbols in libraries were able to cope with this
	previously.

	error.

	* ltmain.in (exec_cmd): New variable.  Don't exec programs within

	afterwards, so that the shell gets a chance to clean up here-doc
	files.
	* NEWS: Update.

2001-05-16  Alan Modra  <amodra@one.net.au>

	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method): pass_all for hppa*-linux.

	driver, not linker, for linking shared libraries.

2001-04-24  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* libtool.m4, ltmain.in, libltdl/configure.in,
	tests/quote.test:  Remove stale references to ltconfig.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup, strcmp, strchr, strrchr, memcpy, trim,
	free_vars):  Revoke inline keyword from declarations.  `static
	inline' is not very portable, and in addition Unixware 7.1.1's
	compiler says you can't access static variables from inline
	functions.
	Reported by Peter Eisentraut  <peter_e@gmx.net>

2001-04-24 Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>

	* libtool.m4: Handle case where /bin/nm -p outputs multiple
	symbol types (like under HP-UX 11.00).

2001-04-24  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* TODO: describe problems with libltdl
	* ltmain.in (ILD): tidy up, add comments, remove dead code,
	  merge duplicate code
	* ltmain.in (ILD): don't touch newdependency_libs after scan or
	  dlopen pass
	* ltmain.in (ILD): don't dlpreopen dependency_libs of a dlopened
	  module (remove absolutely wrong quick hack)
	* ltmain.in (ILD): remove wrong comments about duplicate removal
	* ltmain.in (ILD): build a static-only module if it has

	subsequently tries to open `self'.
	(sys_shl_sym): Diagnose NULL modules.

	From Peter Eisentraut  <peter_e@gmx.net>
	* ltmain.in (clean,uninstall): test -e is not portable.  Well,

	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.

	self dlclosing unloads the main program and causes a SIGSEGV.  So
	don't do it for now.

2000-12-05  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	Oh My! Cygwin support has bitrotted while I was looking the other
	way.  This should fix it some:

	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

2000-09-28  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	Reported by Marc Espie <Marc.Espie@liafa.jussieu.fr>

2000-09-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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

	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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* doc/libtool.texi: Removes references to ltconfig, and a small
	amount of tidying up to compensate.

2000-09-15  Nick Hudson  <skrll@netbsd.org>

	* libtool.m4 (netbsd): Improved support.

2000-09-15  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	versioning scheme, where iface is the number of the oldest
	interface supported.

2000-09-14  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	From Paul Sokolovsky <Paul.Sokolovsky@technologist.com>
	* libtool.m4 (pw32): Initial support for pw32, assuming that
	libtool's behaviour in this environment is identical to under
	cygwin.
	* ltmain.in (pw32): ditto.
	* NEWS: Updated.

	* libtool.m4 (changequote): An audit of changequote and m4
	quote usage -- all changequotes (except a few with non-nesting
	square brackets) have been removed.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST):  The bootstrap script should be
	distributed with libtool.

2000-09-13  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): Oh man!  Third time lucky.
	I just discovered that '&' needs to be escaped inside
	AC_TRY_EVAL.

2000-09-12  Michael Matz  <matz@ifh.de>

	* ltmain.in:  Be careful about filenames with multiple `.'s in
	them when calculating file extensions.
	Reported by Joel Reed <jreed@support.ddiworld.com>

2000-09-12  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	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  <gvv@techie.com>

	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  <gvv@techie.com>

	libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK): The ltconfig.in code I
	ported from ltconfig.in was incomplete -- this is a backport
	of the missing code taken from the multi-language branch.

2000-09-07  Pavel Roskin  <proskin@gnu.org>

	* libtool.m4 (_LT_AC_LTCONFIG_HACK):  Fixed incorrect use of
	changequote

2000-09-07  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	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.

	* depdemo/main.c: Support -alt.
	* tests/build-relink2.test: Try it.

	* ltconfig.in: Removed all references to what used to be
	hardcode_into_libs=all.  2000-09-03's patch was wrong.
	* ltmain.in: Likewise.
	* tests/build-relink.test, tests/build-relink2.test: Adjust.
	* mdemo/Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): Move libsub.la before
	libfoo2.la, so that they're installed in the right order.

2000-09-04  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* tests/dryrun.test: Build libsub.la along with the object files,
	since it is needed by libfoo2.la.

	* mdemo/Makefile.am: Mark only libfoo2 as -no-undefined.
	Explicitly link it with libsub.la.

	* ltconfig.in (need_lc): Preserve allow_undefined_flag.

	* tests/*.test (CONFIG_SITE): Ultrix's /bin/sh fails on
	`. /dev/null'.  Set CONFIG_SITE to /dev/null/config/site, to make
	sure we pick a non-existent file.

	* Makefile.am (libtool, clibtool): Pass CONFIG_SHELL along with
	ECHO down to ltconfig.

	* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, export_dynamic_flag_spec):
	Use ${wl}, not ${wlarc}.

	* ltmain.in (compile, need_lock): Don't create nor remove lock
	files in dry runs.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (load_deplibs): Don't append shlib_ext; use
	lt_dlopenext() instead.

	* ltmain.in (link -static): Don't add $link_static_flag; only
	-all-static should do that.
	* mdemo/configure.in: Revert part of the previous delta.

	* mdemo/configure.in: Don't use -static on AIX4.1.
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: Likewise.

2000-09-03  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltconfig.in: Get rid of hardcode_into_libs=all; use
	hardcode_into_libs=yes && shlibpath_overrides_runpath!=yes
	instead.
	[FreeBSD 3.[01]] (shlibpath_overrides_runpath): Set to no.
	* ltmain.in: Likewise.
	* tests/build-relink.test, tests/build-relink2.test: Adjust.

	* libtool.m4: Fix typo I introduced in yesterday's patch.

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): Set dlname from library_names if
	dlname is empty.

	* ltdl.m4 (HAVE_LIBDL): Look for dlopen in -lsvld.
	* ltconfig.in: Likewise.

	* tests/mdemo-exec.test: Modify failure message.

	* ltmain.in (newdlprefiles): Use dlname if it's available and
	old_library isn't; use linklib only if dlname is not available.

	* ltconfig.in (enable_dlopen): Set to no when lt_cv_dlopen is no.

	* libtool.m4: Don't quote CONFIG_SHELL nor ORIGINAL_CONFIG_SHELL.
	Quote $@ properly so that the shell expands it, not m4.

	* libtool.m4: Don't quote SHELL when `re-exec'ing, so that SHELL
	can be `/path/to/shell -x'.

	* tests/quote.test: Move the match test out of case statements, to
	work around bug in /bin/sh of several OSs.

	* ltmain.in (variables_saved_for_relink): Attempt to unset them
	instead of setting them to an empty string.

2000-09-02  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltconfig.in [with_gnu_ld] (archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds)
	<solaris*, sysv5*, beos*>: Use compiler_flags instead of linker
	flags.
	Reported by Alex Hornby <alex@anvil.co.uk>

2000-09-02  Makoto Ishisone  <ishisone@sra.co.jp>

	* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method, freebsd): Fix typo,
	add support for compact format library.

2000-09-02  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* ltdl.m4: Oops, I had forgotten to commit this part of Syd Polk's
	patch from 2000-06-17.

2000-09-02  Tom Kacvinsky  <tjk@ams.org>, Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu>

	* libtool.m4: Ignore Tru64's nm's complaint.

2000-09-02  Assar Westerlund  <assar@sics.se>

	* ltconfig.in: Add back ranlib calls for static libraries if there
	is a ranlib.

2000-08-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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).

1999-10-28  Stephane Conversy  <Stephane.Conversy@lri.fr>

	* ltmain.in (-DPIC):  changed the order of pic flags a little to
	prevent upsetting the sgi c++ compiler.

        Reported by Sascha Schumann <sascha@schumann.cx>

1999-10-04  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltmain.in (-no-install):  This doesn't work on win32 since
	the search path for libraries is not encoded in the binary,
	and dlls not in $PATH won't be found.  Fall back to -no-fast-install
	instead.

	* ltmain.in (-no-fast-install):  Wrapper script used to add the
	exeext on again when naming the wrapped executable.

	given regex.
	(AC_PATH_PROG_GREP_VERSION):  New macro used by the above.
	(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Use the new macros to search the PATH

1999-09-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltconfig.in (whole-archive-flag-spec):  I had been
	wondering why my file system was filling up with empty
	files named `71'... seems I forgot to hold in the
	shift key when redirecting stderr, 2>&1.  Doh!

1999-09-29  Vadim  <vadim@olly.ru>

	the old `-Wl,--dll -nostartfiles' on cygwin.

1999-07-24  Erez Zadok  <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* doc/PLATFORMS (i*86-*openbsd2.5):  New platform.

	* 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

	actual list addresses for announcements, and urls for upload
	locations.

1999-07-03  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.3b passes all tests on cygwin

1999-07-03  Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

	* ltconfig.in: finish_cmds for FreeBSD removed
	* depdemo/l3/Makefile.am: install libl3.la into an extra directory

1999-07-02  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* configure.in: bumped version to 1.3c.

	GNU libtool 1.3b was released.

	* NEWS: inserted todays date.

1999-07-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* NEWS: updated
	* doc/PLATFORMS: updated

1999-06-30  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* demo/foo.h: use LT_PARAMS instead of LTDL_PARAMS (this is not libltdl)
	* tests/build-relink.test: also check for hardcode_into_libs = yes,
	  if set, we need to relink at install-time

1999-06-29  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* NEWS: mention -no-fast-install, rename dummy to force
	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.3b passes all tests on GNU/Linux,
	  FreeBSD (2.2.6 and 3.1)
	* doc/libtool.texi: it's possible to link libtool libraries
	  using -L and -l, better documentation of uninstall and clean mode,
	  rename dummy to force, documented -no-fast-install,
	  AC_LIBLTDL_* must be called before AC_PROG_LIBTOOL,
	  documented hardcode_into_libs and striplib/old_striplib,
	* ltconfig.in: search for strip program, added hardcode_into_libs
	  and striplib/old_striplib variables, set strip commands for GNU strip,
	  on FreeBSD >= 3.2 set hardcode_into_libs to yes,
	  fast-install mode doesn't work if hardcode_into_libs = yes
	* ltmain.in: reimplemented hardcoding into libraries:
	  new relink mode, preserve all libtool args, relink libraries
	  when installing if necessary
	  added -no-fast-install flag, removed unnecessary `dlname'
	  initialization, use striplib/old_striplib for stripping libraries,
	  dlname is always soname or in library_names so we don't need
	  to handle different file names

1999-06-29  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (freebsd*, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): Set to yes
	up to release 3.1, and to no from 3.2 on.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-29  Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>, Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

1999-06-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): Use pass_all on
	alpha, x86 and sparc architectures by now, reverting to file_magic
	at least on ARM, where it breaks.

1999-06-23  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* NEWS: updated
	* README: added GNU Hurd to the supported platforms
	* doc/libtool.texi: document `-dlpreopen dummy'
	  instead of `-dlopen dummy'

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (trim): use `const' to silence -Wwrite-strings

1999-06-23  Olly Betts  <olly@muscat.co.uk>

	* ltmain.in (ltdll.c): Support for crosscompiling from linux to
	mingw32.

1999-06-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltconfig.in:  moved the test for NM after the test for
	no_builtin_flag.

1999-06-20  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: Use sed '$q' instead of sed "" for copying ltmain,
	just in case some sed does not support an empty command.

	* ltconfig.in (link_static_flag, ac_cv_prog_cc_static): Use the
	latter in the test.

1999-06-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltconfig.in (bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): use a less restrictive
	  regex (reported by Chris P. Ross <cross@eng.us.uu.net>)
	* ltmain.in: support `-dlopen dummy', define lt_preloaded_symbols
	  if dlself != no
	* doc/libtool.texi (Compile and Link mode): document it,
	  documented the -Wc, -Wl flags, libtool does also support non C
	  source code

1999-06-18  Teun Burgers  <burgers@ecn.nl>

	* ltconfig.in: CR/LF fix for broken DJGPP bash
	* ltmain.in: CR/LF fix for DJGPP

1999-06-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_close): Strangely enough, Microsoft have
	decided that LoadLibrary returns `0' for success, yet FreeLibrary
	returns `0' for failure!  The FreeLibrary call used to interpret
	`0' as success for both functions.

1999-06-14 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltconfig.in: use eval when setting have_dlfcn_h, reformatting

1999-06-12 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@ffii.org>

	* ltmain.in: store old archives in deplibs and old_deplibs,
	  retain the order of dependency libraries (even old archives),
	  determining the absolute directory name didn't work due to a typo,
	  add the library search paths of all dependency libraries when
	  linking a library (fixes IRIX 5.2 bug)

1999-06-10  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: Reverted June 6's patch for new GNU ld output, it
	is no longer needed, as ld reverted to the original format.
	* NEWS: Likewise.

	* ltconfig.in: When testing self-dlopening, test whether dlclose
	crashes.  On FreeBSD 3.1, it does.  :-(
	* libltdl/configure.in: Likewise.
	* NEWS: Note work-around.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltconfig.in (exeext): autoconf's AC_EXEEXT uses "no" to indicate
	no extension, and we must do the same in order to share the cache
	value. Also we must ignore conftest.err which HPsUX (at least)
	fills with gratuitous warnings.
	(objext): for consistency, do the same as above.
	Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

1999-06-09  Pavel Roskin  <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>

	* ltconfig.in (exeext): Use quotes in the test, to prevent a
	failure in sh.test.

1999-06-09  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* 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  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltconfig.in (LN_S): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; an environment setting; ``ln -s'' if it works;
	``ln'' if ``ln -s'' doesn't appear to work.

	* ltconfig.in (objext): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; the result of a test object compilation.

	* ltconfig.in (RANLIB): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
	the cached value; an environment setting; the first file called
	``ranlib'' in the user's path.

	* ltmain.in (exeext): Use $exeext when working out the names of
	programs (but not the wrapper script itself due to a stupidity in
	win32 which hardwires the .exe extension to the binary loader!).
	* ltconfig.in (exeext): Now that the wrapper script tries to move
	executables, we need to know whether they have an extension (ala
	AC_EXEEXT).  Since we can't rely on AC_EXEEXT having been called
	in configure.in, we must be able to check for ourselves, though we
	can look for a cached result incase AC_EXEEXT was called.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, pic_flag):  Force separate compilation of
	objects for dlls vs. objects for static archives.  Using a cpp
	macro also allows us to decide whether or not we need to use
	dllexport/import declarations.

	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, need_version): Set to no, otherwise module
	dll's end up with mighty long names!

1999-06-06  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in: Support new GNU ld --help output format.

	* 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 <nick@jive.org>

	* ltmain.in (link): use "$nonopt" as the compiler for
	  compile/finalize_command

1999-05-27  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* TODO: Remove the short list of people interested in C++

	* TODO: Recommend libtool.m4 to be inserted in acinclude.m4. AIX
	4.3.2.0 no longer fails on static dlopening.  GNU DLD no longer

	in preparation for the next release.

1999-05-18  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	knows it has to unpack convenience archives by itself.

1999-05-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	object files extracted from convenience library.

	* ltconfig.in (compiler_c_o): Make sure the compiler does not
	create temporaries in the current directory when output should go
	elsewhere.  We must perform locking if it does.

1999-04-11 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* 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

	may not be removed.
	* ltmain.in (--fallback-echo): Likewise.
	Reported by John David Anglin <dave.anglin@nrc.ca>

	* 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.

	those platforms.

	* doc/libtool.texi (Compile mode): Document potential problem and
	work-around for `-c -o dir/foo.lo'.

	* tests/dryrun.test: The constant modifications of libtool would
	cause main.o to be updated at the wrong time; the new approach is
	to modify the libtool script so that it enables dry run depending
	on whether an environment variable is set or not.  I've also moved
	`after' and `before' to a directory deep within $objdir, instead
	of creating it in ../tests.
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Removed.

1999-04-06  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* tests/dryrun.test: We cannot rely on setting LIBTOOL, because
	automake may use sub-makes, and the setting will not be propagated
	to them on some makes.  Instead, create a dry version of libtool
	and switch between it and the original one before and after dry
	runs.
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added libtool-*, created by
	dryrun.test.

	* tests/dryrun.test: Use cmp instead of diff.
	(before, after): Create them within ../tests.
	(libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
	SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available.  For dry
	runs, use "$libtool -n".
	* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added before and after.
	* ltmain.in: Do not create links to object files in dry runs.

1999-04-06 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: added a missing line of the ILD patch

	* NEWS: improved DJGPP support
	* doc/libtool.texi: removed hardcode_into_libs documentation
	* libtool.m4: some DJGPP fixes
	* ltconfig.in: ditto, reverted one of my previous patches: we need
	  to check for NM, removed the hardcode_into_libs support since
	  no platform seems to support it
	* ltmain.in: some DJGPP fixes, removed the hardcode_into_libs support

1999-04-05  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (netbsd*, GNU ld): Support a.out shared libraries

	* Makefile.am (CVS): allow command-line overriding of cvs

	* ltconfig.in (exclude_expsyms): Exclude _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ by
	default, as most a.out platforms use it, and end up in trouble if
	we preload it, so it's safer to rule it out by default, and
	special case its removal from exclude_expsyms if someone ever
	complains.

1999-04-05 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order,
	  documented dryrun.test and depdemo*
	* ltmain.in (lt_preloaded_symbols): dry-run mode bugfix
	* tests/dryrun.test: new test to check whether the dry-run
	  mode works properly

	* demo/run.test: removed the unnecessary test
	* demo/Makefile.am: ditto
	* ltmain.in: set the DLL search path on cygwin,mingw and os2

1999-04-04  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): -Bstatic is not enough for
	deplibs.test to work with GNU ld; -Bshareable is needed here.

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): Disable shared libs with
	native ld too.

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): Reordered.

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): Revert to -Bstatic; the
	native linker doesn't even support -Bshareable, only GNU ld does.
	Do not use `gcc -shared' in archive_cmds, it breaks deplibs.test.

	* ltconfig.in: if ld_shlibs=no, set can_build_shared=no too,
	otherwise it will just be disregarded.  This would cause
	netbsd/m68k with GNU ld a.out, and certainly many other platforms,
	to incorrectly believe that shared libraries were supported, while
	archive_cmds was empty, causing shared libraries not to be created

1999-04-03  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* NEWS: improved support for AIX and HP/UX

1999-04-03 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: updated
	* libtool.m4: check for main in libm instead of cos
	* ltmain.in: cosmetic fixes, don't try to link libraries only once
	  (although it's not necessary on many platforms and looks ugly...),

1999-04-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (convenience): fixed race condition when more than one
	library was linked with the same convenience library by
	uniquifying the extract directory.  It is now named after the new
	library *and* the old one, and lives in the objdir of the new one.

	* ltmain.in (-L*): do not abort just because a directory specified
	with -L does not exist; just warn and discard it

	* depdemo/l1/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): no-dependencies
	* depdemo/l2/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
	* depdemo/l3/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
	* depdemo/l4/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto

	* ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): where we used -Bstatic, we
	should have been using -Bshareable

	* demo/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): clean EXTRA_* from deplibs-check

	* libtool.m4 (LDFLAGS, LIBS): pass them to ltconfig, for the tests
	that involve linking
	* Makefile.am (LDFLAGS, LIBS, libtool, clibtool): ditto
	* tests/Makefile.am (CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS): set
	(LDFLAGS, LIBS, TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): pass them down

1999-04-02  Erez Zadok  <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.2f ok on various versions of hpux cc

1999-04-02  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (link_all_deplibs): set to unknown by default
	* ltmain.in: test != no, not = yes
	* doc/libtool.texi: document unknown

1999-04-01 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: documented deplibs.test

	* demo/Makefile.am: moved testsuite specific declarations to the end,
	  the deplibs check is now optional
	* libltdl/configure.in: read libtool --config only once,
	  merged AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE from libtool.m4
	* libtool.m4: AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE were not
	  used, lt_dlopen and silent may be empty, AC_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN
	  no longer necessary
	* ltconfig.in: NM is already checked in libtool.m4,
	* ltmain.in: always link all static dependency_libs
	* tests/Makefile.am: added deplibs.test
	* tests/demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test: removed hell0
	* tests/deplibs.test: new test to test the deplibs_check_method

1999-03-31 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* ltmain.in: always link a library before its dependency libs
	* mdemo/Makefile.am: test -export-symbols-regex

1999-03-30 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: fixed a typo
	* libtoolize.in: add the libtool scripts to libltdl.tar.gz
	* libtool.m4: don't AC_SUBST(USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE),
	  AC_CHECK_LIBM sets LIBM, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE doesn't work
	  when libltdl is already installed
	* *demo/Makefile.am: use LIBM
	* *demo/configure.in: AC_SUBST LIBM
	* libltdl/configure.in: use ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore instead of
	  USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE
	* ltconfig.in: added link_all_deplibs variable
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it
	* ltmain.in: always search for libname.la - don't eval libname_spec,
	  when linking libraries against static ones just print a warning
	  and add them to dependency_libs, add -lc before deplibs,
	  always link all dependencies of a static library or if
	  link_all_deplibs is yes, hardcode library paths if
	  hardcode_into_libs is no, don't link against dependency_libs
	  that already are deplibs

1999-03-30  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*, collect2name): make sure collect2 exists
	before running string on it, to avoid errors on old gccs
	Reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>

	* ltconfig.in (aix4*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): unless we're
	using gcc with old collect2, use -b libpath to hardcode the
	library search path

	* ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: reverted most of the quoting changes
	from 1999-03-25; Gary's delay_variable_subst patch from 1999-02-19
	obviates it.  Keep only quoting of $PATH, for uniformity with
	other systems that already did it

1999-03-29  Gary V. Vaughan  <gary@gnu.org>

	* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dladdsearchdir): Forgot to mallocate the
	extra byte of memory for the teminating NUL, and forgot to
	strcpy the original path in to the new memory before appending
	the new path compononent.

1999-03-27 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* NEWS: updated
	* README: updated (BeOS support, no longer shared libraries
	  support for AmigaOS), cleanups, we have now two mailing lists
	* REAMDE-alpha: autogen -> bootstrap, we have now two mailing lists
	* THANKS: added Xavier Pianet
	* doc/PLATFORMS: BeOS works
	* doc/libtool.texi: we have now to two mailing lists,
	  updated -dlopen self documentation, documented libltdl's license,
	  put each author in a separate line,
	  inter-library dependencies on uninstalled libtool libraries are
	  now supported, cleanups and minor corrections
	* libltdl/COPYING.LIB: new file
	* libltdl/ltdl.[ch]: added special exception to the LGPL license
	* libtool.spec: removed, it was outdated
	* Makefile.am: removed libtool.spec
	* ltmain.in: use TMPDIR when possible, create a subdirectory
	  in the temporary directory, added -export-symbols-regex to the help,

1999-03-25  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* demo/Makefile.am: create a static library, link two libtool
	archives with it, then link the program hell0 with both
	* demo/hell1.c, demo/hell2.c: dummy files used to create the
	libtool archives without introducing symbol conflicts
	* tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: run the new program
	* ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): pass_all

	* ltmain.in ($PATH): instead of modifying the PATH, better prevent
	its expansion the first time *_cmds variables are eval'ed.  Modify
	$show within loops that eval them so as to expand variables
	* ltconfig.in (*_cmds): quote $ so that they're not expanded by
	the first eval

1999-03-25  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltmain.in ($PATH):  Expand any tildes in the users path to the
	contents of $HOME to avoid problems with *_cmds splitting and
	evaluation.

1999-03-24 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* TODO: support -dlopen for libraries
	* doc/PLATFORMS: Erez Zadok reported that libtool works on bsdi 4.0.1
	* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): libltdl supports BeOS
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: shlib_ext was declared even if LTDL_SHLIB_EXT
	  didn't exist, partially reverted my previous patch: BeOS will
	  automatically search in ADDON_PATH
	* ltmain.in: don't allow relative run-paths, fixed a typo in a warning,
	  ignore -dlopen self for libraries and objects,
	  only accept -L paths that exist, minor cleanups,
	  bugfix: add -lc for normal libraries, not convenicence libraries
	  removed offensive warnings/comments

1999-03-24  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): disable shared libraries

1999-03-23  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* libltdl/configure.in: the sed expression for finding the shared
	library extension used to think the . in [.] for the cygwin
	shared_library_names_spec was the start of the extension!!  We now
	remove anything in square brackets (assuming that the square
	brackets delimit a sed or expr expression which is not part of the
	extension) before looking for the extension.

	* TODO (cygwin):  food for thought re: mutually dependant dlls.

1999-03-21  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* tests/build-relink.test: if we relink and have hardcode_direct,
	removing an uninstalled library breaks an uninstalled program

	* doc/libtool.texi: documented convenience libraries
	* TODO: removed entry about it

	* tests/*-unst.test: if directory is not configured, skip it
	* tests/demo.test, tests/mdemo.test: unused, removed
	* tests/depdemo.test: ditto

1999-03-20 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documentation for -module updated
	* ltconfig.in: fast-install mode doesn't work for
	  hardcode_into_libs=yes
	* ltmain.in: bugfix: "-dlopen self [-all]-static" wouldn't use
	  dlopen_self_static, automatically enable -export-dynamic when
	  using "-dlopen self",	always make run-paths absolute,
	  ignore -lc only on platforms that don't have such a library,
	  cleanups in the ILD code, find even installed libtool libraries
	  that were moved, before generating the DLL-import library we need
	  to set libname, improved hardcoding of shlibpath for libraries,
	  don't generate an installable pseudo-library for convenience
	  libraries, bugfix: export_symbols would be removed immediately
	  before it is used

1999-03-19 Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* use the same header in all configure.in's and Makefile.am's
	* NEWS: improved support for BeOS and Cygwin
	* TODO: ILD branch was merged, all internal variables and macros
	  are now documented
	* demo/Makefile.am: use $(LIBS) instead of -lm
	* doc/libtool.texi: documented new variable hardcode_into_libs
	  and thread_safe_flag_spec, renamed all AM_ENABLE/DISABLE_* macros
	  to AC_*, documented AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL and AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
	* libltdl/ltdl.c: added two new error messages (cannot_open_error,
	  cannot_close_error), use them where approriate,
	  BeOS support (thanks to Xavier Pianet), on BeOS search modules
	  additionally in ADDON_PATH
	* libtool.m4: rewrote AC_CHECK_LIBM: BeOS and Cygwin don't have
	  libm and *-ncr-sysv4.3* requires libmw
	* ltconfig.in: don't check for LoadLibrary, hardcode dlopen
	  configuration for BeOS and Cygwin
	* ltmain.in: fix sourcing of .la files on Solaris
	  (patch by Raja R Harinath)

1999-03-19  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (sunos4*, with_gnu_ld, hardcode_minus_L): remove,	we
	have -rpath
	(aix4*, without_gnu_ld, hardcode_shlibpath_var): unsupported is
	default
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, archive_cmds): drop +s, unneeded here
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): add +s
	before +b
	(hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): since +s
	appears before +b, set it to yes
	(hardcode_shlibpath_var, hardcode_action): do not use
	shlibpath_var to specify the compile-time search path; it loses,
	and we may end up linking with pre-installed older versions of
	libraries instead of yet-to-be-installed ones
	(*, hardcode_direct, hardcode_minus_L): remove entries that set
	them to no, that is default

	* demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct, hc-libpath, hc-minusL): link with
	$$hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, if available, with libdir=$(libdir),
	to make sure the hardcode_* variables will produce the expected
	results even in the presence of a hardcoding flag; depend on
	libhello.la having been installed already
	(hc-libflag): link with the installed library, but try to
	hard-code the uninstalled one
	* doc/libtool.texi: document the changes

	* tests/*.test: when a test fails, skip tests that depend on it.
	If a certain configuration is not supported, skip all its tests.

	* doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order

	* tests/noinst-link.test: new test
	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): added noinst-link.test
	* doc/libtool.texi: document it

1999-03-19  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* ltmain.in (dependency_libs): There is no reason to infer that
	the pseudo library is invalid if dependency_libs='' at
	install-time, or else libltdl/libltdl.la is invalid!!

1999-03-18  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* merged my inter-library dependencies code from the ILD branch:
	* NEWS: inter-library dependencies are now supported
	* configure.in: add the depdemo subdirectory
	* depdemo/*: new demo to demonstrate inter-library dependencies
	* tests/depdemo*: new tests for depdemo
	* ltconfig.in: added hardcode_into_libs (whether library paths
	  should be hardcoded into the libraries),
	  it currently defaults to 'no'
	* ltmain.in: new internal 'relink' mode to relink libraries
	  on platforms with hardcode_into_libs=yes, save command line
	  arguments in libtool_args, accept relative -L directories,
	  ignore -lm on BeOS and Cygwin, always ignore -lc,
	  handle -l, -L and .la arguments later, always make the library
	  installation directory (-rpath) absolute, in relink mode don't
	  delete the not-relinked library and exit immediately after relinking,
	  try to find already-installed libtool libraries that were specified
	  using -l, support hardcoding of library paths into libraries too,
	  export shlibpath before linking libraries, and a lot of other
	  big changes that I don't want to describe here... please read
	  the source.

	* merged Gary's Win32 code from the ILD branch:
	* NEWS: Win32 DLLs are now supported
	* TODO: removed .a library namespace clash for win32.  It is
	  now resolved.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec):  removed $libname.a.
	  Creating a dll with libtool no longer creates an import library.
	* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): Create $objdir if it does
	  not exist -- i.e. we need to generate import an import library
	  in a directory which has no libs of its own.
	* doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds,
	  extract_expsyms_cmds): documented these new variables.
	* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): New variable.  Commands to
	  extract the exported symbol list from a dll.
	  (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds): New variable.  Commands to build
	  an old archive from the extracted expsyms list.
	* ltmain.in: run the cmds in extract_expsyms_cmds and
	  old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds as necessary.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, old_archive_from_new_cmds): no longer
	  required.
	* ltconfig.in (cygwin, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): I'm not even
	  sure whether win32 honours the runpath at all when searching for
	  a dll to load!  Anyway, when set to yes this prevents a gratuitous
	  warning.
	* ltmain.in (deplib): The cygwin environment doesn't actually have
	  -lm, and although the linker fakes having one, specifiying it to
	  libtool will break ILD, so we ignore it when generating
	  dependencies.

1999-03-17  Gary V. Vaughan  <gvv@techie.com>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: Thanks to Alexandres changes below, both my
	hp boxes pass the entire test suite.

1999-03-17  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltconfig.in (hpux*, hardcode_minus_L): should be no, we have +b
	(hpux*, hardcode_libdir_separator): set to colon

1999-03-17  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* doc/PLATFORMS: egcs is gcc; updates from Erez Zadok

1999-03-16  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

	* ltmain.in (deplibs, beos*): don't append -lc
	Reported by Xavier Pianet <xavier@xingo.com>

	* tests/build-relink.test (hardcode_action): when set to relink,
	skip the test with lt-hell

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): add mkstamp
	Reported by Xavier Pianet <xavier@xingo.com>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): add ChangeLog.0

1999-03-16  Thomas Tanner  <tanner@gmx.de>

	* doc/libtool.texi: some minor corrections to the "-dlopen self"
	  documentation
	* tests/Makefile.am: sorted by name, added assign.test
	* ChangeLog: started new file

	* ltconfig.in: some cosmetical changes
	* ltmain.in: ditto

Continued in ChangeLog.0
