 160         Look in /usr/ucb after /bin and /usr/bin for utilities,

 178
 179         * Makefile.SH: Change clean, distclean, and realclean targets a
 180         little so they agree with the GNU coding standards.
 181         Add Makefile to addedbyconf, so distclean removes it.
 182
 183         * Configure: Recognize Domain/OS C library in /lib/libc.
 184         From mmuegel@mot.com (Michael S. Muegel).
 185
 186         * pch.c: Fixes from Wayne Davison:
 187         Patch now accepts no-context context diffs that are
 188         specified with an assumed one line hunk (e.g.  "*** 10 ****").
 189         Fixed a bug in both context and unified diff processing that would
 190         put a zero-context hunk in the wrong place (one line too soon).
 191         Fixed a minor problem with p_max in unified diffs where it would
 192         set p_max to hunkmax unnecessarily (the only adverse effect was to
 193         not supply empty lines at eof by assuming they were truncated).
 194
 195 Tue Jul  2 03:25:51 1991  David J. MacKenzie  (djm at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
 196
 197         * Configure: Check for signal declaration in
 198         /usr/include/sys/signal.h as well as /usr/include/signal.h.
 199
 200         * Configure, common.h, config.h.SH: Comment out the sprintf
 201         declaration and tests to determine its return value type.  It
 202         conflicts with ANSI C systems' prototypes in stdio.h and the
 203         return value of sprintf is never used anyway -- it's always cast
 204         to void.

 216
 217         * Makefile.SH (all): Don't make a dummy `all' file.
 218
 219         * patchlevel.h: PATCHLEVEL 12u3.
 220
 221         * patch.c (nextarg): New function.
 222         (get_some_switches): Use it, to prevent dereferencing a null

 224         on the command line).  From Paul Eggert.
 225
 226         * pch.c (another_hunk): Fix from Wayne Davison to recognize
 227         single-line hunks in unified diffs (with a single line number
 228         instead of a range).
 229
 230         * inp.c (rev_in_string): Don't use `s' before defining it.  From
 231         Wayne Davison.

 243         informative.
 244
 245 Sun Dec  2 23:20:18 1990  David J. MacKenzie  (djm at albert.ai.mit.edu)
 246
 247         * Configure: When checking for C preprocessor, look for 'abc.*xyz'
 248         instead of 'abc.xyz', so ANSI C preprocessors work.
 249
 250         * Apply fix for -D from ksb@mentor.cc.purdue.edu (Kevin Braunsdorf).
 251
 252         * Apply unidiff patches from davison@dri.com (Wayne Davison).

 254 Wed Mar  7 23:47:25 1990  Jim Kingdon  (kingdon at pogo.ai.mit.edu)
 255
 256         * pch.c: Call malformed instead of goto malformed
 257         (just allows easier debugging).
