+ * README.template: Add a note about broken /bin/sh on SunOS
+ 4.1.3_U1 & 4.1.4. Fix up Savannah links.
+
+ * misc.c (message, error, fatal): Don't use "..." if we're using
+ varargs. ansi2knr should handle this but it doesn't work: it
+ translates "..." to va_dcl etc. but _AFTER_ the preprocessor is
+ done. On many systems (SunOS for example) va_dcl is a #define.
+ So, force the use of the non-"..." version on pre-ANSI compilers.
+
+ * maintMakefile (sign-dist): Create some rules to help automate
+ the new GNU ftp upload method.

* GNU make is ported to OS/2.
Port provided by Andreas Buening <andreas.buening@nexgo.de>.
* Enhancements for POSIX compatibility:
- Only touch targets (under -t) if they have at least one command.
-* Updated to autoconf 2.58, automake 1.8, and gettext 0.13.1. Users
+* Updated to autoconf 2.59, automake 1.8.2, and gettext 0.14.1. Users
should not be impacted.

Building From CVS
-----------------
-To build GNU make from CVS, you will need Autoconf 2.57 (or better),
-Automake 1.7.3 (or better), and Gettext 0.11.5 (or better), and any
-tools that those utilities require (GNU m4, Perl, etc.). You will also
-need a copy of wget.
+To build GNU make from CVS, you will need Autoconf, Automake, and
+Gettext, and any tools that those utilities require (GNU m4, Perl,
+etc.). See the configure.in file to find the minimum versions of each
+of these tools. You will also need a copy of wget.
After checking out the code, you will need to perform these steps to get
to the point where you can run "make".
You can also use the online bug tracking system in the Savannah GNU Make
project to submit new problem reports or search for existing ones:

Please note: you won't be able to build GNU make from CVS without
installing appropriate maintainer's tools, such as GNU m4, automake,
---------------------
It has been reported that the XLC 1.2 compiler on AIX 3.2 is buggy such
-that if you compile make with `cc -O' on AIX 3.2, it will not work correctly.
-It is said that using `cc' without `-O' does work.

+
+The standard /bin/sh on SunOS 4.1.3_U1 and 4.1.4 is broken and cannot be
+used to configure GNU make. Please install a different shell such as
+bash or pdksh in order to run "configure". See this message for more
+information:
+ http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2003-10/msg00190.html
One area that is often a problem in configuration and porting is the code
to check the system's current load average. To make it easier to test and
# Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
