Both C and C++ have "bool", "true" and "false" in lower case; C
requires <stdbool.h> for this, in C++ it is an inherent type built
into the compiler. Use those instead of the old macros; emulate with
a simple typedef enum if unavailable.
Concentrate compiler dependencies to compiler.h; make sure compiler.h
is included first in every .c file (since some prototypes may depend
on the presence of feature request macros.)
Actually use the conditional inclusion of various functions (totally
broken in previous releases.)
To deal with fools^Wpeople trying to keep really old systems alive,
create a proper framework for substitution functions, and make it
possible to deal with the lack of snprintf/vsnprintf in particular.
We can actually test for the options being accepted, rather than try
to test for gcc; this handles differences between gcc versions as well
as compilers with a similar command line set.
- Remove obsolete types like "uint32"; use "uint32_t" consistently.
- Make sure we include <inttypes.h> where needed.
- Header file guards should be FOO_H or SUBDIR_FOO_H; _FOO_H infringes
on the C implementation's namespace and should only be used when
writing libc!
- Change a few "int8_t" back to "char" where appropriate. There are
a lot more places where that should be done, though.
- Clean up the check for getuid/getgid in rdoff/rdlar.h.
actually *use* the resulting configuration file, but it keeps autoconf
from creating an insanely long compiler command line, which can cause
problems all by itself. Eventually we can do:
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include "config.h"
#endif
... to get the same information.
