* limits.h: Change MB_LEN_MAX to 6. A 31-bit ISO 10646
character in UTF-8 encoding has that many bytes.
* locale/langinfo.h: New element _NL_CTYPE_MB_CUR_MAX.
* locale/categories.def: Add description of field _NL_CTYPE_MB_CUR_MAX.
* locale/Makefile (routines): Add mb_cur_max.
* locale/mb_cur_max.c: New file. This function gets called
when the macro MB_CUR_MAX is used.
* locale/C-ctype.c: Initialize new mb_cur_max field.
* locale/localeinfo.h: Change magic value because of incompatible
change.
* locale/programs/ld-ctype.c: Determine value of mb_cur_max
according to current character set and write it out with the rest.
* stdlib/stdlib.h (MB_CUR_MAX): Not constant anymore. Get value
according to currently used locale for catefory LC_CTYPE by
calling the function __ctype_get_mb_cur_max.

* FAQ: Fix some typos.
Tell that for Linux the kernel header files are necessary.
* PROJECTS: New file. List of open jobs for glibc.
* Makefile (distribute): Add PROJECTS.
* crypt/GNUmakefile (headers): New variable. Mention crypt.h.
* crypt/crypt.h: Header for crypt functions.
* elf/elf.h: Add some new constants from recent Cygnus ELF
header files.
* login/getutid_r.c: Test for correct type.
Don't depend on ut_type and ut_id unless _HAVE_UT_TYPE and
_HAVE_UT_ID resp. are defined.
Make really compliant with specification.
* login/getutline_r.c, login/pututline_r.c: Don't depend on
ut_type and ut_id unless _HAVE_UT_TYPE and _HAVE_UT_ID resp. are
defined.
Make really compliant with specification.
* login/setutent_r.c: Don't depend on ut_type and ut_id unless
_HAVE_UT_TYPE and _HAVE_UT_ID resp. are defined.
* login/login.c, login/logout.c, login/logwtmp.c: Complete
rewrite. Now based on getut*/setut* functions.
* stdlib/strtol.c: Undo changes of Wed May 22 01:48:54 1996.
This prevented using this file in other GNU packages.
* sysdeps/gnu/utmpbits.h: Define _HAVE_UT_TYPE, _HAVE_UT_ID,
and _HAVE_UT_TV because struct utmp has these members.
* sysdeps/libm-i387/e_exp.S: Correct exp(+-Inf) case.
* utmp.h: New file. Wrapper around login/utmp.h.
* elf/dl-error.c (struct catch): New type.
(catch): New static variable, struct catch *.
(catch_env, signalled_errstring, signalled_objname): Variables removed.
(_dl_signal_error): If CATCH is non-null, set its errstring and
objname members and jump to CATCH->env. If it is null, call
_dl_sysdep_fatal with a standard message.
* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Explode `doit' function into dl_main's body.
No longer use _dl_catch_error.
This directory contains the version 1.09.6 test release of the GNU C Library. Many bugs have been fixed since the last release. Some bugs surely remain. As of this release, the GNU C library has been ported to the following configurations: alpha-dec-osf1 i386-bsd4.3 i386-force_cpu386-none i386-gnu (for Hurd development only) i386-isc2.2 i386-isc3 i386-sco3.2 i386-sco3.2v4 i386-sequent-bsd i386-sysv i386-sysv4 i960-nindy960-none m68k-hp-bsd4.3 m68k-mvme135-none m68k-mvme136-none m68k-sony-newsos3 m68k-sony-newsos4 m68k-sun-sunos4 mips-dec-ultrix4 mips-sgi-irix4 sparc-sun-solaris2 sparc-sun-sunos4 Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port, please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points. Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations, we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is called `glibc-1.09.6-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk [129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port the GNU C library. The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and not to the library bug-reporting address. The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what facilities you want it to make available. Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions.
