Updated: fortune-1.99.1-2 (experimental)

2006-01-16 Thread Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes
This version of fortune contains many tweaks to the fortune data files
from the debian 1.99.1-2 and 1.99.1-3 releases, including the new
off/disclaimer file, and adds a new, undocumented, -u switch to
fortune.

It is now built using the cygwin generic build script, and requires a
recent snapshot or 1.5.19.

Assuming there are no reported problems, it will become the current
version shortly after cygwin 1.5.19 is released.

dynamically.

cgf: Update malloc to version 2.8.2.

cgf: Rewrite bad argument checking for thread safety and improved speed.

cgf: Fix problem with spawn() of non-cygwin processes.

cgf: Define loff_t in types.h.

cgf: Define INET_ADDRSTRLEN in in.h.

arto.huusko: Fix fork problem when resources are low.

cgf: Add some linux-specific defines to ioctl.h.

cgf: Export pread() and pwrite().

sthoenna: Implement TIOCMBIS and TIOCMBIC.

corinna: Bounds check abstime in pthread_cond_timedwait.

mgorse: Fix possible seg fault when creating a detached thread.

cgf: Move more linux-like definitions into endian.h.

cgf: Fix problem where cygheap was miniscule in size rather than
many megabytes causing cygwin to prematurely run out of file handles
or to be incapable of handling long command lines.

cgf: Rework Makefile to allow separate debugging information to be
generated.

cgf: Try harder to generate EMFILE condition.

corinna: Export fts_children, fts_close, fts_get_clientptr,
fts_get_stream, fts_open, fts_read, fts_set, fts_set_clientptr,
ftw, nftw.

cgf: Add elf.h and friends to /usr/include.  This makes it easier
to build the linux kernel on cygwin.

cgf: Try harder to generate E2BIG when the command line length is
overrun on exec/spawn.

trcurtiss: Fix so that current baud rate of serial line is returned
regardless of DTR state.

corinna: Make cygwin more robust when running on 64-bit version of
Windows.

ptsekov: Fix problems with stale subshells in MC caused by EOF in pty
slaves not being correctly propagated.

cgf: Report "cygdrive" and proc as directories in / even if they haven't
been explicitly created as directories.

cgf: Implement and export readdir_r.

cgf: Fix handling of signal masks in threads.

cgf: Allow use of /proc values as standard input to programs like 'cat'.

which cause problems on Win98/Me.

corinna: Disable all special handling of CTRL_LOGOFF_EVENT since it seems
to be sent too globally to be useful.

cgf: Fix stty "Not all operations could be performed" problem on serial ports
and allow "stty -a" to work on serial ports as well.

corinna: Fix open and stat on virtual subdirectories (/proc/registry, etc.)

corinna: Fix invalid errno handling in strerror.

corinna: Fix potential hang in pthread_cond_wait.

cgf: Fix annoying error pop-ups on Windows 98.

cgf: Report E2BIG when the size of an individual environment component is
> 32K.

cgf: Don't crash if the environment block grows greate than 32K.

corinna: Use Winsock 2 for everything.

cgf: Properly fill out si_code if siginfo_t structure.

sthoenna: Call signal handler with extra siginfo_t * and void *
parameters when SA_SIGINFO flag is set by a call to sigaction().

corinna: Make running on 64-bit windows slightly more robust.

cgf: Cleanup and speed up fork slightly.

cgf: Clean up and stabilize handling of /proc filesystem as well as
other operations which use cygwin's signal "commune" for inter-process
communication.

corinna: Add WinMainCRTStartup symbol as an alias for mainCRTStartup.

corinna: Properly deal with a trailing /.  or /..  when creating a
directory.

cgf: Try harder to avoid multi-threaded problems when exiting, communing, or
performing operations on the file table.

corinna: Implement mlock/munlock.

corinna: Implement futimes.

corinna: Deal with non-blocking sockets more robustly.

cgf: Export memmem.

cgf: Properly disconnect console when no ctty and last fd closes it.  Try hard
to ensure that that processes which start without an attached console do not
produce the dreaded "black box
