inherited_linker_flags so it puts it on the link line when
linking shared libraries as well as when linking executables.
* tests/inherited_flags.at: test inherited_linker_flags.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add test.
* tests/testsuite.at: Add test.

within the same and following line.
* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_enable_tag, func_mode_install)
(func_mode_link): Sprinkle `shift's all over to conform to this.
m4/ltsugar.m4, m4/ltversion.m4, m4/lt~obsolete.m4: RMS says,
'I think the [license of autoconf macro files] should be:
# This file is free software; the Free Software Foundation
# gives unlimited permission to copy and/or distribute it,
# with or without modifications, as long as this notice is
# preserved.'.
Use `$SED -n' instead of `$SED RANGE {..}; d' as AIX sed cannot
handle the latter.
(func_help): start autoconf and automake in subshells to avoid
error messages from ash or Bourne shell if not available.
New variable $opt_debug is either `:' or `set -x' depending on --debug.
Execute at most function entries to cater for ksh which resets `-x'.
* tests/defs.m4sh: Ditto for VERBOSE=debug.
(func_quote_for_eval, func_quote_for_expand) ..use it to work around
SunOS ksh `case' backslash-escaping bug: protect character class by
variable expansion. Reported by Alexander Kurz <alexander.kurz@qsc.de>.
On darwin, uniq can not take the flags -cd together, thanks to Ralf
for the fix, also ar does not accept N, so we use the fact that
ar x libfoo.a foo.o will always extract the first foo.o in the
archive and we then delete foo.o from the archive, which will also
delete only the first foo.o, then rinse and repeat. Also add markers
for the testuite.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Add a marker so that we can use a sed
expression to find the shell functions in libtool.
* tests/functests.at: Test this feature.
* tests/testsuite.at: Add the test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add the test.
* Makefile.am, Makefile.maint: .. install, update it.
* NEWS, doc/libtool.texi (Distributing): .. document it.
Reported by Ross Boylan <ross@biostat.ucsf.edu>.
emulate strlcat and strlcpy, which support size-bounded string
copying and concatenation for improved security.
* libltdl/Makefile.am: Optionally build source files
libltdl/lt__strl.c and libltdl/libltdl/lt__strl.h.
* m4/ltdl.m4 (LTDL_INIT): Add checks for strlcat and strlcpy.
to detect at `configure' time whether the shell supports some XSI
extensions and to copy appropriate versions of new shell functions into
`libtool' through `config.status'. Copied functions are Bourne and XSI
variants of func_basename, func_dirname (a variant of `dirname' suitable
for libtool). (_LT_SETUP) Require _LT_CHECK_XSI_SHELL.
(_LT_CONFIG) Use _LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS to insert into `libtool' at marker.
does not need the `g' flag.
(func_quote_for_eval): Return both the possibly double-quoted
backslashified as well as only the backslashified argument.
* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Use both return values,
to save another sed_quote_subst application per cmdline arg.
description. (func_lalib_unsafe_p): New function with same
functionality but written without forks; this function is safe
to use for cases where the argument either does not exist or
is required to be a lalib for correct operation.
* NEWS: Mention the fact that stdin is not to be used.
* (func_mode_execute, func_mode_install, func_mode_link):
Use func_lalib_unsafe_p where appropriate.
* (func_mode_execute): For the program wrapper, use
func_ltwrapper_p instead of func_lalib_p.

* libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlinit): Only preload if HAVE_LIBDLLOADER, only
declare preloaded_symbols then. Fixes libltdl on static platforms.
* NEWS: Updated.
