- Revision 1.3.5, dated today.
-
- * util.c (fprint_off): Fix bug in printing values greater than
- 10 * 2**32 bytes. Bug reported by Bryan Andersen.
-
- * Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Use .S as extension for $(ASCPP),
- to keep gcc happy.
- * configure.in: Likewise.
- Upgrade assembly-language checking for Autoconf 2.54, using cache vars.
- (AC_PROG_CPP, AC_OBJEXT): Add.
-
- * match.c: Accept __i386 and __i386__ as synonyms for i386.

- Suggested by <antos@MAST.queensu.ca>.
-
-2002-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
-
- * zforce.in: Use shell pattern matching instead of 'expr', which
- mishandles names like "+". Remove old check for 14-byte file
- names on hosts with broken "mv" implementations, as such systems
- aren't in use any more and it's better nowadays to support file
- names longer than 14 bytes. Rely on "mv"'s error-reporting.
- This fixes a portability bug reported by Ralf Neubauer, along
- with some other bugs.
-
- Remove dangling output symlinks properly.
- Bug reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.
- * gzip.c (lstat): New macro, for platforms lacking lstat.
- (do_stat): Use it.
- (name_too_long, check_ofname): Use lstat instead of stat.
-
-2002-09-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
-
- * zforce.in: Use "gzip -lv", not "gzip -v". Patch by Ralf
- Neubauer.
-
- * configure.in (ASCPP): Don't use test -a, as POSIX says it's
- not portable.
- * znew.in: Likewise.
- * zmore.in: Likewise. Similarly, don't use test -o, or test -t
- with no operand.
-
- * gzexe.in (PATH): Set to same as other programs.
- Don't assume "tail +22" works; POSIX removed this.
- Check against compressing "tail".
- Check against "skip=" line with no integer.
- * zgrep.in: Exit with status 2 if trouble, for consistency with grep.
-
- * gzip.c (main): Avoid core dump in diagnostic message if
- incorrect suffix is given.
-
-2002-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
-
- * zdiff.in: Use "trap -" instead of "trap". Patch by Nicolas Boullis.

- (gzip_TEXINFOS): New macro.
-
- * tailor.h (NO_DIR): Define to 1, not the empty string.
- * gzip.c (NO_DIR): Define to 0 if not defined. All uses changed.
- (usage): Don't put '#if' inside printf, as the C standard says
- that it is not portable if printf is a macro.
-
- Don't lose output when decompressing truncated input.
- Bug reported by Nadav Har'El.
- * inflate.c (GETBYTE): New macro.
- (NEXTBYTE): Use it.

- Use a POSIX-compliant shell instead of /bin/sh.

+ build: do not override gnulib-provided AM_CFLAGS options
+ Avoid a warning from automake:
+ lib/Makefile.am:24: AM_CFLAGS multiply defined in condition TRUE ...
+ lib/gnulib.mk:30: ... `AM_CFLAGS' previously defined here
+ lib/Makefile.am:20: `lib/gnulib.mk' included from here
-2000-04-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
+ * lib/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Append $(WARN_CFLAGS) and
+ $(WERROR_CFLAGS), i.e., use "+=", not "=".
+ This was introduced via 2009-12-17 commit 0341fc22,
+ "build: with --enable-gcc-warnings, use -Werror",
+ but fortunately is not a bug, because the definition
+ it would have overridden was always empty.
+
+ gzip -d would fail with a CRC error...
+ ...for some inputs, and some memcpy implementations. It is possible
+ that an offending input has to be compressed "from FAT filesystem
+ (MS-DOS, OS/2, NT)", since the sole reproducer no longer evokes a
+ CRC error when uncompressed and recompressed on a GNU/Linux system.
+ Also, using an unpatched reverse-memcpy-gzip on over 100,000 inputs
+ on a GNU/Linux system did not turn up another reproducer.
+ * inflate.c (inflate_codes): Don't call memcpy with overlapping regions.
+ Properly detect when source and destination overlap.
+ * tests/memcpy-abuse: New test, to trigger misbehavior.
+ * Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
