Update.
1999-11-09 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * elf/dl-load.c (_dl_dst_count): Allow $ORIGIN to point to directory with the reference since this is as secure as using the object with the dependency. (_dl_dst_substitute): Likewise. * elf/dl-load.c (_dl_dst_count): Change strings in first two strncmp calls to allow reuse. (_dl_dst_substitute): Likewise. 1999-11-01 Arnold D. Robbins <arnold@skeeve.com> * posix/regex.c (init_syntax_once): move below definition of ISALNUM etc., then use ISALNUM to init the table, so that the word ops will work if i18n'ed. (SYNTAX): And subscript with 0xFF for 8bit character sets. 1999-11-09 Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de> * sysdeps/unix/getlogin_r.c (getlogin_r): Sync with getlogin implementation for ttyname_r call; fix inverted condition; return ut_user. Closes PR libc/1438. 1999-11-09 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * timezone/checktab.awk: Update from tzcode1999h. * timezone/africa: Update from tzdata1999i. * timezone/asia: Likewise. * timezone/australasia: Likewise. * timezone/backward: Likewise. * timezone/europe: Likewise. * timezone/northamerica: Likewise. * timezone/southamerica: Likewise. * timezone/iso3166.tab: Likewise. * timezone/zone.tab: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/resource.h: Define values also as macros. Patch by brg@csua.berkeley.edu [PR libc/1439]. 1999-11-09 Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de> * posix/Makefile (tests): Added tst-getlogin. * posix/tst-getlogin.c: New file, contains simple tests for getlogin and getlogin_r. 1999-11-09 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> * misc/syslog.c: For LOG_PERROR only append a newline if necessary.
