+ maint: remove unreachable code
+ Problem reported by Oracle Developer Studio 12.6.
+ In the old days we needed a return statement at the end of
+ the gzip main function to pacify traditional 'lint', but
+ lint checkers nowadays are smarter.
+ * gzip.c (main):
+ * zip.c (file_read): Remove unreachable code.

+ maint: use a slightly cleaner expression
+ * gzip.c (do_list): Simplify an expression:
+ - int positive_off_t_width = INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (off_t) - 2;
+ + int positive_off_t_width = INT_STRLEN_BOUND (off_t) - 1;
+
+2018-12-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
+
+ build: avoid build failure with --enable-gcc-warnings and latest gcc
+ * gzip.c (do_list): There was a loop to compute the maximum width
+ of a decimal positive off_t value. Replace it with assignment to a
+ constant. Noticed because gcc 9.0.0 20181219 warned about its use
+ as a printf format-width value.
+ (OFF_T_MAX): Remove now-unused definition.

+ * gzexe.in, zdiff.in, zgrep.in:
+ Don’t assume that mktemp works when given no arguments,
+ as this is not true for macOS. Instead, use a syntax
+ that should work with coreutils, NetBSD, and macOS.
+ While we’re in the neighborhood, be more consistent about how program
+ names are used in temporary file names. Also, watch out for TMPDIR
+ values that are not absolute file names, since they can cause problems
+ (e.g., leading "-").

+ build: update gnulib to latest
- * 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.

+ gzip: simplify by closing ourselves
+ This simplifies the previous fix, by avoiding the use of the
+ closein module. That module was problematic, as gzip normally
+ does not use stdio for output and never uses it for input.
+ Also, it is a heavyweight module, as it drags many files into lib
+ (c-ctype.c, c-ctype.h, closein.c, closein.h, closeout.c, closeout.h,
+ close-stream.c, close-stream.h, config.charset, c-strcasecmp.c,
+ c-strcaseeq.h, c-strcase.h, c-strncasecmp.c, fpending.c, fpending.h,
+ freadahead.c, freadahead.h, localcharset.c, localcharset.h, mbrtowc.c,
+ mbsinit.c, quotearg.c, quotearg.h, quote.h, ref-add.sin, ref-del.sin,
+ streq.h, wctype-h.c, wctype.in.h) and into m4 (closein.m4, closeout.m4,
+ close-stream.m4, codeset.m4, configmake.m4, fpending.m4, freadahead.m4,
+ glibc21.m4, localcharset.m4, locale-fr.m4, locale-ja.m4, locale-zh.m4,
+ mbrtowc.m4, mbsinit.m4, mbstate_t.m4, quotearg.m4, wctype_h.m4),
+ and these files are thus no longer needed.
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove closein.
+ * gzip.c: Don't include closein.h.
+ (stdin_was_read): New static var.
+ (main): Don't use close_stdin.

+ * tests/zgrep-f: Check for "zgrep -e -" bug, too.
+ * zgrep.in: Don't assume that if the shell redirects fd 6, then
+ this redirection is visible to the subsidiary grep. POSIX doesn't
+ guarantee this visibility except for file descriptors 0, 1, and 2,
+ and ksh does not support it. Problem reported by Thomas Schulz in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2010-11/msg00000.html>.
+ Also, fix a related bug: "-e -" was mishandled. These two bugs

+ dated 2009-10-09.

+ A script went awry when updating copyright dates in gzip's shell

+ and version messages to look like "Copyright (C) 2010 Free
+ Software Foundation, Inc." (with just the most-recent year).
+ Instead, it sometimes ignored one, sometimes the other, and
+ typically put ranges into version messages. Fix all this stuff by
+ hand, using dates that I divined from the change logs (so they're
+ a bit more accurate than script-generated dates). We need to fix
+ the script before it runs in 2011.
