I found a couple of theoretical integer overflows in cat.c: it
misbehaves if you give it 2**32 options, and it screws up if a file
block size is greater than INT_MAX. While fixing these minor glitches
and doing the usual "use bool for values that are booleans" fixes I
noticed also that cat uses su
I noticed that dcgen generated C code with wider integers than it had
to, so I cleaned that up, and while I was at it I modified it to
remove comments, trailing white space, and empty lines.

This is related to the previous patch: it cleans up chown/chgrp
themselves. The only user-visible change should be that "chgrp 010
file" works correctly instead of misparsing the number as octal.

coreutils chown and chgrp mishandle some numeric uids and gids that
have leading zeros. For example, "chown 010 file" is treated as
"chown 8 file", where it should be like "chown 10 file". I discovered
this while auditing for integer arithmetic problems, and installed the
following patch to fix t
I installed these patches, to remove the assumption that sizeof (long)
must be either 4 or 8, and also to remove the assumption that a
pointer must be castable to an integer in a useful way.

Continuing in our series of integer-arithmetic cleanups for coreutils,
here is a patch to make md5.c and sha1.c portable to hosts (like the
AS/400) which do not let you cast pointers to integers in any
meaningful way. This also modernizes the integer terminology a bit
(using C99 names) and fixes t
I installed this patch for a very unlikely problem: more than INT_MAX groups.

I installed this patch to fix a test-case bug encountered when running
"make test" under the Solaris automounter.

"make check" failed on Solaris 8 sparc because Solaris 8 'make'
wouldn't build the groups file: it saw the line "groups: Makefile" and
decided that was enough. I also noticed a lot of needless rebuilding
of localedir.h, which I think I've seen on other platforms too: that
makefile rule is well-int
CVS coreutils rm failed "make check" due to the following scenario
in tests/rm/inaccessible:
can't get the working directory initially;
...
chdir ("/foo/bar/abs1");
... opendir, readdir, remove all entries here; then: ...
chdir ("."); // because we couldn't get the working directory
I installed this fix encountered when porting coreutils CVS to Solaris
8 + 32-bit GCC. This was a portability bug that I introduced in the
2004-07-06 change to printf.c; sorry about that.
