-A NOTE ON THE CHANGELOG:
-Starting in early 2011, Tcl source code has been under the management of
-fossil, hosted at https://core.tcl-lang.org/tcl/ .  Fossil presents a "Timeline"
-view of changes made that is superior in every way to a hand edited log file.
-Because of this, many Tcl developers are now out of the habit of maintaining
-this log file.  You may still find useful things in it, but the Timeline is
-a better first place to look now.

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c (TclCompileTryCmd): [Bug 779d38b996]:
-	Rewrote the [try] compiler to generate better code in some cases and

-	processing of an exception-trap clause or a finally clause, the
-	*original* return options are now captured in a -during option, even
-	when fully compiled.
-
-2013-06-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_EXPAND_DROP): [Bugs 2835313, 3614226]:

-	* generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompCmds.c: Adjusted the compilers
-	for [break] and [continue] to get stack cleanup right in the majority
-	of cases.

-
-2013-06-04  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-2013-06-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: fix for perf bug detected by Kieran

-
-2013-06-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileBreakCmd, TclCompileContinueCmd):
-	Added code to allow [break] and [continue] to be issued as a jump (in
-	the most common cases) rather than using the more expensive exception
-	processing path in the bytecode engine. [Bug 3614226]: Partial fix for
-	the issues relating to cleaning up the stack when dealing with [break]
-	and [continue].
-
-2013-05-27 Harald Oehlmann  <oehhar@users.sf.net>

-
-2013-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n: [Bug 3613671]: Added note to portability section on the

-
-	* unix/tcl.m4:     Fix for FreeBSD, and remove support for older

-
-2013-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmdsGR.c: Split tclCompCmds.c again to keep size of
-	code down.
-
-2013-05-16  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Add panic in order to detect incompatible

-	* compat/zlib/*: Upgrade to zlib 1.2.8
-
-2013-05-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	Optimizations and general bytecode generation improvements.
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileAppendCmd, TclCompileLappendCmd):
-	(TclCompileReturnCmd): Make these generate bytecode in more cases.
-	(TclCompileListCmd): Make this able to push a literal when it can.
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclSetByteCodeFromAny, PeepholeOptimize):
-	Added checks to see if we can apply some simple cross-command-boundary
-	optimizations, and defined a small number of such optimizations.
-	(TclCompileScript): Added the special ability to compile the list
-	command with expansion ([list {*}blah]) into bytecode that does not

-
-2013-05-06  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Add support for Cygwin64, which has a 64-bit
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: "long" type. Binary compatibility with win64
-	requires that all stub entries use 32-bit long's, therefore the need
-	for various wrapper functions/macros. For Tcl 9 a better solution is
-	needed, but that cannot be done without introducing binary
-	incompatibility.
-
-2013-04-30  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion):
-	* library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: Followup to the 2013-01-30 change.

-	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_NewBooleanObj, Tcl_DbNewBooleanObj
-	and Tcl_SetBooleanObj as macros using Tcl_NewIntObj, Tcl_DbNewLongObj
-	and Tcl_SetIntObj. Starting with Tcl 8.5, this is exactly the same, it
-	only eliminates code duplication.
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Eliminate use of NO_WIDE_TYPE everywhere: It's
-	exactly the same as TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG
-
-2013-04-19  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement many Tcl_*Var* functions and

-
-	* library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): [Bug 2911139]: Do not do vwait
-	for connect to avoid reentrancy problems (except when operating

-	mode.
-
-2013-01-21  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl[GS]etStartupScript(Path|FileName)

-2013-01-16  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* Makefile.in:   Allow win32 build with -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED, just as
-	* generic/tcl.h: in the UNIX build. Define Tcl_EvalObj and
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: Tcl_GlobalEvalObj as macros, even when
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: TCL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, so Tk can benefit
-	from it too.

-
-	* win/tcl.m4: More flexible search for win32 tclConfig.sh, backported

-
-2013-01-14  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl_[GS]etStartupScript in internal

-
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: If TCL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, make sure

-
-2013-01-07  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclOOStubLib.c: Restrict the stub library to only use
-	* generic/tclTomMathStubLib.c: Tcl_PkgRequireEx, Tcl_ResetResult and
-	Tcl_AppendResult, not any other function. This puts least restrictions
-	on eventual Tcl 9 stubs re-organization, and it works on the widest
-	range of Tcl versions.
-
-2013-01-06  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* library/http/http.tcl: Don't depend on Spencer-specific regexp

-	Bump http package to 2.8.6.
-
-2013-01-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEnsemble.c (CompileBasicNArgCommand): Added very simple
-	compiler (which just compiles to a normal invoke of the implementation
-	command) for many ensemble subcommands where we can prove that there
-	is no way for scripts to detect the difference even through error
-	handling or [info level]/[info frame]. This improves the code produced
-	from some ensembles (e.g., [info], [string]) to the point where the
-	ensemble is now not normally seen at the bytecode level at all.
-
-2013-01-04  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:      Insure that PURIFY builds cannot exploit the

-
-2013-01-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/fconfigure.n, doc/CrtChannel.3: Updated to reflect the fact that

-	Bron on the Tcler's Chat.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBCresume:INST_INVOKE_REPLACE):
-	* generic/tclEnsemble.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Added new mechanism to
-	allow for more efficient dispatch of non-bytecode-compiled subcommands
-	of bytecode-compiled ensembles. This can provide substantial speed
-	benefits in some cases.
-
-2013-01-02  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEnsemble.c:  Remove stray calls to Tcl_Alloc and friends:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:   the core should only use ckalloc to allow

-	* generic/tclTomMathInterface.c:

-
-2012-12-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	(CatchObjCmdCallback): do not decrRefCount
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:	the newValuePtr sent to Tcl_ObjSetVar2:

-
-	* unix/dltest/pkgb.c:  Turn pkgb.so into a Tcl9 interoperability test

-2012-11-26  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c: Factor out creation of the -sockname and

-	representation.
-
-2012-11-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryDecode64): [Bug 3033307]: Corrected

-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (TclUnixOpenTemporaryFile): [Bug 2933003]: Factor
-	out all the code to do temporary file creation so that it is possible
-	to make it correct in one place. Allow overriding of the back-stop
-	default temporary file location at compile time by setting the
-	TCL_TEMPORARY_FILE_DIRECTORY #def to a string containing the directory
-	name (defaults to "/tmp" as that is the most common default).
-
-2012-11-13  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c: also search for the library directory (init.tcl,
-	encodings, etc) relative to the build directory associated with the
-	source checkout.
-
-2012-11-10  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

-2012-11-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* library/http/http.tcl (http::Finish): [Bug 3581754]: Ensure that
-	callbacks are done at most once to prevent problems with timeouts on a
-	keep-alive connection (combined with reentrant http package use)
-	causing excessive stack growth. Not a fix for the underlying problem,
-	but ensures that pain will be mostly kept away from users.
-	Bump http package to 2.8.5.
-
-2012-11-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	Added bytecode compilation of many Tcl commands. Some of these are
-	total compilations and some are only partial (i.e., only compile in
-	some cases). The (sub-)commands affected are:
-	* array: exists, set, unset
-	* dict: create, exists, merge
-	* format: (simple cases only)
-	* info: commands, coroutine, level, object
-	* info object: class, isa object, namespace
-	* namespace: current, code, qualifiers, tail, which
-	* regsub: (only cases convertable to simple [string map])
-	* self: (only no-argument and [self object] cases)
-	* string: first, last, map, range
-	* tailcall:
-	* yield:
-
-	[This was work originally done on the 'dkf-compile-misc-info' branch.]
-
-2012-11-05  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#413
-
-	Align the [string trim] and [string is space] commands, such that
-	[string trim] by default trims all characters for which [string is
-	space] returns 1, augmented with the NUL character.
-
-	* generic/tclUtf.c: Add NEL, BOM and two more characters to [string is
-	space]
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Modify [string trim] for Unicode modifications.
-	* generic/regc_locale.c: Regexp engine must match [string is space]
-	* doc/string.n
-	* tests/string.test
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Code that relied on characters not previously trimmed being not
-	removed will notice a difference; it is believed that this is rare,
-	but a workaround to get the behavior in Tcl 8.5 is to use " \t\n\r" as
-	an explicit trim set.
-
-2012-10-31  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictUnsetCmd): Added compilation of
-	the [dict unset] command (for scalar var in LVT only).
-
-2012-10-23  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:       Add "flags" parameter from Tcl_LoadFile to
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:    to various internal functions, so these
-	* generic/tclLoadNone.c:  flags are available through the whole
-	* unix/tclLoad*.c:        filesystem for (future) internal use.
-	* win/tclWinLoad.c:
-
-2012-10-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclNRCoroutineObjCmd): insure that numlevels
-	are properly set, fix bug discovered by dkf and reported at
-	http://code.activestate.com/lists/tcl-core/12213/
-
-2012-10-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#405
-
-	New commands for applying a transformation to the elements of a list
-	to produce another list (the [lmap] command) and to the mappings of a
-	dictionary to produce another dictionary (the [dict map] command). In
-	both cases, a [continue] will cause the skipping of an element/pair,
-	and a [break] will terminate the construction early and successfully.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_LmapObjCmd, TclNRLmapCmd): Implementation of
-	the new [lmap] command, based on (and sharing much of) [foreach].
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictMapNRCmd): Implementation of the new [dict
-	map] subcommand, based on (and sharing much of) [dict for].
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLmapCmd, TclCompileDictMapCmd):
-	Compilation engines for [lmap] and [dict map].
-
-	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#400
-
-	* generic/tclZlib.c: Allow the specification of a compression
-	dictionary (a binary blob used to seed the compression engine) in both
-	streams and channel transformations. Also some reorganization to allow
-	for getting gzip header dictionaries and controlling buffering levels
-	in channel transformations (allowing a trade-off between formal
-	correctness and speed).
-	(Tcl_ZlibStreamSetCompressionDictionary): New C API to allow setting
-	the compression dictionary without using a Tcl script.
-
-2012-10-14  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: [Bug 3576509]: ::tcl::Bgerror crashes with

-2012-10-03  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:	When checking for std channels being closed,
-	compare the channel state, not the channel itself so that stacked
-	channels do not cause trouble.
-
-2012-09-26  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* generic/tclIOSock.c (TclCreateSocketAddress): Work around a bug in

-
-2012-09-20  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-
-	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_CopyObjectInstance): [Bug 3474460]: Make the
-	target object name optional when copying classes. [RFE 3485060]: Add
-	callback method ("<cloned>") so that scripted control over copying is
-	easier.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***

-
-	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#380.
-
-	* doc/define.n, doc/object.n, generic/tclOO.c, generic/tclOOBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclOOCall.c, generic/tclOODefineCmds.c, generic/tclOOInt.h:
-	* tests/oo.test: Switch definitions of lists of things in objects and
-	classes to a slot-based approach, which gives a lot more flexibility
-	and programmability at the script-level. Introduce new [::oo::Slot]
-	class which is the implementation of these things.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	The unknown method handler now may be asked to deal with the case
-	where no method name is provided at all. The default implementation
-	generates a compatible error message, and any override that forces the
-	presence of a first argument (i.e., a method name) will continue to
-	function as at present as well, so this is a pretty small change.
-
-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Made it easier to do a
-	tailcall inside a normally-invoked destructor; prevented leakage out
-	to calling command.

-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:  changes from [835f8e1e9d] (2010-01-22).
-	* win/tclWinError.c:          They were an attempt to make the cygwin
-	                              port compile again, but since cygwin is
-	                              based on unix this serves no purpose any
-	                              more.
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c:         Use EAGAIN in stead of EWOULDBLOCK,

-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (TclMakeFileCommandSafe): [Bug 3211758]: Also
-	make the main [file] command hidden by default in safe interpreters,

-
-2011-09-23  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c: More revisions to get finalization of
-	ReflectedTransforms correct, including adopting a "dead" field as was
-	done in tclIORChan.c.
-
-	* tests/thread.test:	Stop using the deprecated thread management
-	commands of the tcltest package.  The test suite ought to provide

-
-2011-09-22  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-2011-09-20  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: Re-using the "interp" field to signal a dead

-	the dead channel signalling task so the corrupted logic is avoided.
-
-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c: Revised ReflectClose() and
-	FreeReflectedTransform() so that we stop leaking ReflectedTransforms,
-	yet free all Tcl_Obj values in the same thread that alloced them.
-
-2011-09-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/ioTrans.test:	Conversion from [testthread] to Thread package
-	stops most memory leaks.
-
-	* tests/thread.test:	Plug most memory leaks in thread.test.
-	Constrain the rest to be skipped during `make valgrind'.  Tests using
-	the [testthread cancel] testing command are leaky.  Corrections wait
-	for either addition of [thread::cancel] to the Thread package, or
-	improvements to the [testthread] testing command to make leak-free
-	versions of these tests possible.
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c:	Plug all memory leaks in ioCmd.test exposed
-	* tests/ioCmd.test:	by `make valgrind'.

-2011-06-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

-
-2011-05-17  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclFixupForwardJump): Tracked down and fixed
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclArgumentBCEnter): the cause of a violation of
-	my assertion that 'ePtr->nline == objc' in TclArgumentBCEnter.  When a
-	bytecode was grown during jump fixup the pc -> command line mapping
-	was not updated. When things aligned just wrong the mapping would
-	direct command A to the data for command B, with a different number of
-	arguments.
-
-2011-05-11  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c (TcpWatchProc): No need to check for server

-	so.
-
-2011-05-10  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:     New internal routines TclScanElement() and

-	correct [Bug 3173086].  See comments for much more detail.
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c:         Update all callers.
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c:
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:

-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	Revise empty string tests so that we avoid

-
-2011-05-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclLoad.c (TclGetLoadedPackages): Convert to use Tcl_Obj API

-2011-05-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Fix USE_TCLALLOC so that it can be enabled without
-	* unix/Makefile.in: editing the Makefile.
-
-2011-05-05  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	Stop generating string rep of dict when
-	converting to list.  Tolerate NULL interps more completely.

-
-2011-05-02  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	Revised TclFindElement() interface. The final
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c:	argument had been bracePtr, the address of a
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	boolean var, where the caller can be told
-	* generic/tclParse.c:	whether or not the parsed list element was
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	enclosed in braces.  In practice, no callers
-	really care about that.  What the callers really want to know is
-	whether the list element value exists as a literal substring of the
-	string being parsed, or whether a call to TclCopyAndCollpase() is
-	needed to produce the list element value.  Now the final argument is
-	changed to do what callers actually need. This is a better fit for the
-	calls in tclParse.c, where now a good deal of post-processing checking
-	for "naked backslashes" is no longer necessary.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	For any callers calling in via the internal stubs table who really do
-	use the final argument explicitly to check for the enclosing brace
-	scenario.  Simply looking for the braces where they must be is the
-	revision available to those callers, and it will backport cleanly.
-
-	* tests/parse.test:	Tests for expanded literals quoting detection.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c:	New TclFindElement() is also a better
-	fit for the [switch] compiler.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Replace TclCountSpaceRuns() with
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	TclMaxListLength() which is the function we
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	actually want.
-	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c:
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c: Rewrite of parts of the switch compiler to
-	better use the powers of TclFindElement() and do less parsing on its
-	own.
-
-2011-04-28  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	New utility routines:
-	* generic/tclParse.c:	TclIsSpaceProc() and TclCountSpaceRuns()
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	Use new routines to replace calls to isspace()

-	* generic/tclInt.h:    used on MinGW. Make sure that all _WIN32
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:    compilers use exactly the same layout

-	the new TclTrim*() routines.

-	which Tcl actually builds on) and unsigned int for the length
-	parameters, removing the need for MANY casts across the rest of Tcl.
-	Note that this is a strict source-level-only change, so size_t cannot

-	namespaces to _not_ delete the ::tcl namespace.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (loadIntoSlaveInterpreter): Added this
-	command to handle connecting tcltest to a slave interpreter. This adds
-	in the hook (inside the tcltest namespace) that allows the tests run
-	in the child interpreter to be reported as part of the main sequence
-	of test results. Bumped version of tcltest to 2.3.3.

-
-2010-11-29 Alexandre Ferrieux  <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Patch by Miguel, providing a

-	reported by Karl Lehenbauer, (b) allows TclDoubleDigits to generate
-	the digit strings for 'e' and 'f' format, so that it can be used for
-	tcl_precision != 0 (and possibly later for [format]), (c) fixes [Bug
-	3120139] by making TclPrintDouble inherently locale-independent, (d)
-	adds test cases to util.test for correct rounding in difficult cases
-	of TclDoubleDigits where fixed- precision results are requested. (e)
-	adds test cases to util.test for the controversial aspects of [Bug
-	3105247]. As a side effect, two more modules from libtommath
-	(bn_mp_set_int.c and bn_mp_init_set_int.c) are brought into the build,
-	since the new code uses them.

-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendObjToObj): Added some special

-	TIP #162 IMPLEMENTATION
-
-	* doc/socket.n:		Document the changes to the [socket] and
-				[fconfigure] commands.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Introduce TclCreateSocketAddress() as a
-	* generic/tclIOSock.c:	replacement for the platform-dependent
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c:	TclpCreateSocketAddress() functions. Extend
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:	the [socket] and [fconfigure] commands to
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:	behave as proposed in TIP #162. This is the
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:	core of what is required to support the use of
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:	IPv6 sockets in Tcl.
-
-	* compat/fake-rfc2553.c: A compat implementation of the APIs defined
-	* compat/fake-rfc2553.h: in RFC-2553 (getaddrinfo() and friends) on
-				 top of the existing gethostbyname() etc.
-	* unix/configure.in:	 Test whether the fake-implementation is
-	* unix/tcl.m4:		 needed.
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	 Add a compile target for fake-rfc2553.
-
-	* win/configure.in:	Allow cross-compilation by default.
-
-	* tests/socket.test:	Improve the test suite to make more use of
-	* tests/remote.tcl:	randomized ports to reduce interference with
-				tests running in parallel or other services on
-				the machine.

-2010-09-28  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
-
-	* tests/assemble.test: Added more "white box" tests.
-	* generic/tclAssembly.c: Added the error checking and reporting
-	for undefined labels. Revised code so that no pointers into the
-	bytecode sequence are held (because the sequence can move!),
-	that no Tcl_HashEntry pointers are held (because the hash table
-	doesn't guarantee their stability!) and to eliminate the BBHash
-	table, which is merely additional information indexed by jump
-	labels and can just as easily be held in the 'label' structure.
-	Renamed shared structures to CamelCase, and renamed 'label' to
-	JumpLabel because other types of labels may eventually be possible.
-
-2010-09-27  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
-
-	* tests/assemble.test: Added more "white box" tests.
-	* generic/tclAssembly.c: Fixed bugs exposed by the new tests.
-	(a) [eval] and [expr] had incorrect stack balance computed if
-	the arg was not a simple word. (b) [concat] accepted a negative
-	operand count. (c) [invoke] accepted a zero or negative operand
-	count. (d) more misspelt error messages.
-	Also replaced a funky NRCallTEBC with the new call
-	TclNRExecuteByteCode, necessitated by a merge with changes on the
-	HEAD.
-
-2010-09-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:    [Patch 3072080] (minus the itcl
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:    update): a saner NRE.
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:  This makes TclNRExecuteByteCode (ex TEBC)
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:  to be a normal NRE citizen: it loses its
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:  special status.
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:  The logic flow within the BC engine is

-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c:
-	* generic/tclProc.c:

-
-	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
-
-	* tests/assemble.test:	Added many new tests moving toward a more
-	comprehensive test suite for the assembler.
-	* generic/tclAssembly.c:	Fixed bugs exposed by the new tests:
-	(a) [bitnot] and [not] had incorrect operand counts. (b)
-	INST_CONCAT cannot concatenate zero objects. (c) misspelt error
-	messages. (d) the "assembly code" internal representation lacked
-	a duplicator, which caused double-frees of the Bytecode object
-	if assembly code ever was duplicated.
-
-2010-09-25  Kevin B. Kenny   <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclAssembly.c:	Massive refactoring of the assembler
-	* generic/tclAssembly.h:	to use a Tcl-like syntax (and use
-	* tests/assemble.test:		Tcl_ParseCommand to parse it). The
-	* tests/assemble1.bench:	refactoring also ensures that
-	Tcl_Tokens in the assembler have string ranges inside the source
-	code, which allows for [eval] and [expr] assembler directives
-	that simply call TclCompileScript and TclCompileExpr recursively.
-
-2010-09-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tests/stringComp.test: improved string eq/cmp test coverage
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): merge INST_STR_CMP and

-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd):		Lift the restriction
-	* generic/tclIO.c (TclCopyChannel, CopyData):	on the [fcopy] command
-	* generic/tclIO.h (CopyState):			that forced it to only
-	copy up to 2GB per script-level callback. Now it is anything that can
-	fit in a (signed) 64-bit integer. Problem identified by Frederic
-	Bonnet on comp.lang.tcl. Note that individual low-level reads and

-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c (ForwardProc): [Bug 2964425]: When cleaning

-	required removing an extra Tcl_DecrRefCount too.
-
-	* generic/tclOO.h, generic/tclOOInt.h: [Patch 2961556]: Change TclOO
-	to use the same style of function typedefs as Tcl, as this is about

-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Source code that uses function typedefs from TclOO will need to update
-	variables and argument definitions so that pointers to the function
-	values are used instead. Binary compatibility is not affected.
-
-	* generic/*.c, generic/tclInt.h, unix/*.c, macosx/*.c: Applied results
-	of doing a Code Audit. Principal changes:
-	  * Use do { ... } while (0) in macros
-	  * Avoid shadowing one local variable with another
-	  * Use clearer 'foo.bar++;' instead of '++foo.bar;' where result not
-	    required (i.e., semantically equivalent); clarity is increased
-	    because it is bar that is incremented, not foo.
-	  * Follow Engineering Manual rules on spacing and declarations

-
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): [Bug 801429]: Factor out the holding
-	of the client-installed main loop function into thread-specific data.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Code that previously tried to set the main loop from another thread
-	will now fail. On the other hand, there is a fairly high probability
-	that such programs would have been failing before due to the lack of
-	any kind of inter-thread memory barriers guarding accesses to this

-
-2010-02-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibTransformInput): [Bug 2762041]: Added a hack
-	to work around the general problem, early EOF recognition based on the
-	base-channel, instead of the data we have ready for reading in the
-	transform. Long-term we need a proper general fix (likely tracking EOF
-	on each level of the channel stack), with attendant complexity.
-	Furthermore, Z_BUF_ERROR can be ignored, and must be when feeding the
-	zlib code with single characters.

-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey):	Restore these hash functions

-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclHashObjKey):	Community felt normal case
-	speed to be more important than resistance to malicious cases. For

-	hash table and install their own hash function, though that is not
-	functionality exposed to the script level.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictUpdateCmd): Stack depth must be

-
-	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, SquelchedNsFirst, ObjectRenamedTrace):
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_DeleteNamespace): [Bug 2950259]: Revised
-	the namespace deletion code to provide an additional internal callback
-	that gets triggered early enough in namespace deletion to allow TclOO
-	destructors to run sanely. Adjusted TclOO to take advantage of this,
-	so making tearing down an object by killing its namespace appear to
-	work seamlessly, which is needed for Itcl. (Note that this is not a
-	feature that will ever be backported to 8.5, and it remains not a
-	recommended way of deleting an object.)
-
-2010-02-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Divided the [switch]
-	compiler into three pieces (after the model of [try]): a parser, an

-	jump tables.
-
-	* generic/tclEnsemble.c: Split the ensemble engine out into its own
-	file rather than keeping it mashed together with the namespace code.
-
-2010-02-12  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-
-2010-02-11  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	[Bug 2826551, Patch 2948425]: Assorted regexp bugs related to -all,
-	-line and -start options and newlines.
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): If -offset is given, treat it
-	as the start of the line if the previous character was a newline. Fix
-	nasty edge case where a zero length match would not advance the index.
-	* tests/regexp.test: Add regression tests back ported from Jacl.
-	Checks for a number of issues related to -line and newline handling. A
-	few of tests were broken before the patch and continue to be broken,
-	marked as knownBug.
-

-2010-02-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileTryCmd, IssueTryInstructions)
-	(IssueTryFinallyInstructions): Added compiler for the [try] command.
-	It is split into three pieces that handle the parsing of the tokens,
-	the issuing of instructions for finally-free [try], and the issuing of
-	instructions for [try] with finally; there are enough differences
-	between the all cases that it was easier to split the code rather than
-	have a single function do the whole thing.
-
-2010-02-09  Alexandre Ferrieux  <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl: Remove dependency on 8.5+ idiom "in" in

-
-2010-02-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclZlib.c (Tcl_ZlibDeflate, Tcl_ZlibInflate): [Bug 2947783]:
-	Make sure that the result is an unshared object before appending to it
-	so that nothing crashes if it is shared (use in Tcl code was not
-	affected by this, but use from C was an issue).
-
-2010-02-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey):	Replace Tcl's crusty old hash
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclHashObjKey):	function with the algorithm
-	due to Fowler, Noll and Vo. This is slightly faster (assuming the
-	presence of hardware multiply) and has somewhat better distribution
-	properties of the resulting hash values. Note that we only ever used
-	the 32-bit version of the FNV algorithm; Tcl's core hash engine
-	assumes that hash values are simple unsigned ints.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Code that depends on hash iteration order (especially tests) may well
-	be disrupted by this. Where a definite order is required, the fix is
-	usually to just sort the results after extracting them from the hash.
-	Where this is insufficient, the code that has ceased working was
-	always wrong and was only working by chance.
-
-2010-02-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Rewrote to be NRE-aware

-2010-02-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Added more use of error-codes and reduced the
-	stack overhead of older interfaces.
-	(ArrayGetCmd): Stop silly crash when using a trivial pattern due to
-	error in conversion to ensemble.

-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Turned the [array] command into a true ensemble.
-
-	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeleted): A slightly faster way to
-	handle the deletion of [my] is with a standard delete callback. This
-	is because it doesn't require an additional memory allocation during
-	object creation. Also reduced the amount of string manipulation
-	performed during object creation to further streamline memory
-	handling; this is not backported to the 8.5 package as it breaks a
-	number of abstractions.
-
-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): [Bug 2944404]: Do not
-	crash when a destructor deletes the object that is executing that
-	destructor.
-
-2010-02-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): [Bug 2939073]: Stop the [array

-	thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux for the bulk of this fix.
-
-	* generic/regexec.c (ccondissect, crevdissect): [Bug 2942697]: Rework
-	these functions so that certain pathological patterns are matched much

-2010-01-29  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: [Bug 2942081]: Reverted Tcl_ThreadDataKey type change
-				Changed some Tcl_CallFrame fields from "char *"
-				to "void *". This saves unnecessary space on
-				Cray's (and it's simply more correct).
-
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl:	No longer generate a space after "*" and
-				immediately after a function name, so the
-				format of function definitions in tcl*Decls.h
-				match all other tcl*.h header files.
-	* doc/ParseArgs.3:	Change Tcl_ArgvFuncProc, Tcl_ArgvGenFuncProc
-	* generic/tcl.h:	and GetFrameInfoValueProc to be function
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	definitions, not pointers, for consistency
-	* generic/tclOOInt.h:	with all other Tcl function definitions.

-
-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Move the execution of
-	destructors to a point where they can produce an error. This will not
-	work for all destructors, but it does mean that more failing calls of
-	them will be caught.
-	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeletedTrace, ObjectRenamedTrace):
-	(ObjectNamespaceDeleted): Stop various ways of getting at commands
-	with dangling pointers to the object. Also increases the reliability
-	of calling of destructors (though most destructors won't benefit; when
-	an object is deleted namespace-first, its destructors are not run in a
-	nice state as the namespace is partially gone).

-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CreateScriptRecord): [Bug 2918110]: Initialize
-	the EventScriptRecord (esPtr) fully before handing it to
-	Tcl_CreateChannelHandler for registration. Otherwise a reflected

-	* win/tclAppInit.c (Tcl_AppInit): [Bug 2902965]: Reverted Jan's change
-	that added a call to Tcl_InitStubs. The 'tclsh' and 'tcltest' programs

-
-	* library/tclIndex: Manually redone the part of tclIndex dealing with

-	automatic regeneration of this part is not possible because it wrongly
-	puts 'safe::Setup' on the list, and wrongly leaves out 'safe::Log'
-	which is more dynamically created than the generator expects.
-
-	Further note that the file "clock.tcl" is explicitly loaded by
-	"init.tcl", the first time the clock command is invoked. The relevant
-	code can be found at line 172ff, roughly, the definition of the
-	procedure 'clock'. This means none of the procedures of this file
-	belong in the tclIndex. Another indicator that automatic regeneration

-
-	* library/safe.tcl (::safe::Setup): Added documentation of the

-	with 'namespace upvar'.
-
-2009-11-05  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/safe.tcl: A series of patches which bring the SafeBase up to
-	date with code guidelines, Tcl's features, also eliminating a number
-	of inefficiencies along the way.
-	(1) Changed all procedure names to be fully qualified.
-	(2) Moved the procedures out of the namespace eval. Kept their
-	locations. IOW, broke the namespace eval apart into small sections not
-	covering the procedure definitions.
-	(3) Reindented the code. Just lots of whitespace changes.
-	Functionality unchanged.
-	(4) Moved the multiple namespace eval's around. Command export at the
-	top, everything else (var decls, argument parsing setup) at the
-	bottom.
-	(5) Moved the argument parsing setup into a procedure called when the
-	code is loaded. Easier management of temporary data.
-	(6) Replaced several uses of 'Set' with calls to the new procedure
-	'InterpState' and direct access to the per-slave state array.
-	(7) Replaced the remaining uses of 'Set' and others outside of the
-	path/token handling, and deleted a number of procedures related to
-	state array access which are not used any longer.
-	(8) Converted the path token system to cache normalized paths and path
-	<-> token conversions. Removed more procedures not used any longer.
-	Removed the test cases 4.3 and 4.4 from safe.test. They were testing
-	the now deleted command "InterpStateName".
-	(9) Changed the log command setup so that logging is compiled out
-	completely when disabled (default).
-	(10) Misc. cleanup. Inlined IsInterp into CheckInterp, its only user.
-	Consistent 'return -code error' for error reporting. Updated to use
-	modern features (lassign, in/ni, dicts). The latter are used to keep a
-	reverse path -> token map and quicker check of existence.
-	(11) Fixed [Bug 2854929]: Recurse into all subdirs under all TM root
-	dirs and put them on the access path.

-2009-11-01  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
-	* doc/Cancel.3: Minor cosmetic fixes.
-	* win/makefile.vc: Make htmlhelp target work again.  An extra set of
-	double quotes around the definition of the HTML help compiler tool
-	appears to be required.  Previously, there was one set of double
-	quotes around the definition of the tool and one around the actual
-	invocation.  This led to confusion because it was the only such tool
-	path to include double quotes around its invocation.  Also, it was
-	somewhat inflexible in the event that somebody needed to override the
-	tool command to include arguments.  Therefore, even though it may look
-	"wrong", there are now two double quotes on either side of the tool
-	path definition.  This fixes the problem that currently prevents the
-	htmlhelp target from building and maintains flexibility in case
-	somebody needs to override it via the command line or an environment
-	variable.
-
-2009-11-01  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* tests/tcltest.test: When creating the notwritabledir we deny the

-
-2009-10-29  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:        Changed the typedef for the mp_digit type
-	from:
-		typedef unsigned long mp_digit;
-	to:
-		typedef unsigned int mp_digit;
-	For 32-bit builds where "long" and "int" are two names for the same
-	thing, this is no change at all.  For 64-bit builds, though, this
-	causes the dp[] array of an mp_int to be made up of 32-bit elements
-	instead of 64-bit elements.  This is a huge improvement because
-	details elsewhere in the mp_int implementation cause only 28 bits of
-	each element to be actually used storing number data.  Without this
-	change bignums are over 50% wasted space on 64-bit systems.  [Bug
-	2800740].
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	For 64-bit builds, callers of routines with (mp_digit) or (mp_digit *)
-	arguments *will*, and callers of routines with (mp_int *) arguments
-	*may* suffer both binary and stubs incompatibilities with Tcl releases
-	8.5.0 - 8.5.7.  Such possibilities should be checked, and if such
-	incompatibilities are present, suitable [package require] requirements
-	on the Tcl release should be put in place to keep such built code
-	[load]-ing only in Tcl interps that are compatible.

-
-	* generic/tclLiteral.c:	[Bug 2888044]: Fixed 2 bugs.
-	* tests/info.test:	First, as noted in the comments of the
-	TclCleanupLiteralTable routine, since the teardown of the intrep of
-	one Tcl_Obj can cause the teardown of others in the same table, the
-	full table cleanup must be done with care, but the code did not
-	contain the same care demanded in the comment.  Second, recent
-	additions to the info.test file had poor hygiene, leaving an array
-	variable ::a lying around, which breaks later interp.test tests during
-	a -singleproc 1 run of the test suite.
-
-2009-10-28  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/fileName.test (fileName-20.[78]): Corrected poor test

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Removed the long outdated and broken targets

-	prehistory.
-
-2009-10-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:      [Patch 2107634]: Revised ReadChars and

-	panic when as little as half the limiting value length was reached.

-	* tests/thread.test (thread-4.[345]): [Bug 1565466]: Correct tests to

-
-2009-10-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (SlaveEval): Agressive stomping of internal reps

-	their intreps and require reparsing.  Thanks to Ashok Nadkarni for
-	reporting the problem.
-
-	* generic/tclTomMathInt.h (new): Public header tclTomMath.h had

-
-2009-09-17  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	Re-implement Tcl_SubstObj() as a simple
-	* generic/tclParse.c:	wrapper around TclNRSubstObj().  This has
-	* tests/basic.test:	the effect of caching compiled bytecode in
-	* tests/parse.test:	the value to be substituted.  Note that
-	Tcl_SubstObj() now exists only for extensions.  Tcl itself no longer
-	makes any use of it.  Note also that TclSubstTokens() is now reachable
-	only by Tcl_EvalEx() and Tcl_ParseVar() so tests aiming to test its
-	functioning needed adjustment to still have the intended effect.

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSubstCmd): [Bug 2314561]:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Added a bytecode compiler routine for the

-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	the need to NR-enable [subst] since bytecode
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	execution is already NR-enabled. Two new

-2009-09-01  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c (ReflectInput): Remove error response to

-
-	Extended the bytecode compiler initialization to recognize the
-	compilation of whole files (NRE enabled 'source' command) and switch
-	to the counting of absolute lines in that case.
-
-	Further extended the bytecode compiler to track the start line in the
-	generated information, and modified the bytecode execution to
-	recompile an object if the location as per the calling context doesn't
-	match the location saved in the bytecode. This part could be optimized
-	more by using more memory to keep all possibilities which occur
-	around, or by just adjusting the location information instead of a
-	total recompile.
-
-	Reworked the handling of literal command arguments in bytecode to be
-	saved (compiler) and used (execution) per command (See the
-	TCL_INVOKE_STK* instructions), and not per the whole bytecode. This,
-	and the previous change remove the problems with location data caused
-	by literal sharing (across whole files, but also proc bodies).
-	Simplified the associated datastructures (ExtIndex is gone, as is the
-	function EnterCmdWordIndex).
-
-	The last change causes the hashtable 'lineLABCPtr' to be state which
-	has to be kept per coroutine, like the CmdFrame stack. Reworked the
-	coroutine support code to create, delete and switch the information as
-	needed. Further reworked the tailcall command as well, it has to pop
-	its own arguments when run in a bytecode context to keep a proper
-	stack in 'lineLABCPtr'.
-
-	Fixed the mishandling of line information in the NRE-enabled 'for' and
-	'while' commands introduced when both were made to share their
-	iteration callbacks without taking into account that the loop body is
-	found in different words of the command. Introduced a separate data
-	structure to hold all the callback information, as we went over the
-	limit of 4 direct client-data values for NRE callbacks.
-
-	The above fixes [Bug 1605269].

-	* generic/tclBasic.c: [Bug 2502037]: NR-enable the handling of unknown
-	commands.
-
-2009-03-21  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:   Fixed "leaks" in aliases, imports and
-	* generic/tclInt.h:     ensembles. Only remaining known leak is in
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:  ensemble unknown dispatch (as it not
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:  NR-enabled)
-	* tests/tailcall.test:
-
-	* tclInt.h: comments
-
-	* tests/tailcall.test: Added tests to show that [tailcall] does not
-	currently always execute in constant space: interp-alias, ns-imports
-	and ensembles "leak" as of this commit.
-
-	* tests/nre.test: [foreach] has been NR-enabled for a while, the test
-	was marked 'knownBug': unmark it.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:   Fix for (among others) [Bug 2699087]
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:   Tailcalls now perform properly even from
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: within [eval]ed scripts.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:     More tests missing, as well as proper
-	exploration and testing of the interaction with "redirectors" like
-	interp-alias (suspect that it does not happen in constant space)
-	and pure-eval commands.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Proper fix for [Bug 2415422]. Reenabled
-	* tests/nre.test:       the failing assertion that was disabled on
-	2008-12-18: the assertion is correct, the fault was in the
-	management of expansions.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:  Fix both test and code for tailcall
-	* tests/tailcall.test:   from within a compiled [eval] body.
-
-	* tests/tailcall.test: Slightly improved tests

-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclStringMatchObj):	[Bug 2637173]: Revised
-	the branching on the strObj->typePtr so that untyped values get
-	converted to the "string" type and pass through the Unicode matcher.
-	[Bug 2613766]: Also added checks to only perform "bytearray"
-	optimization on pure bytearray values.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	Since Tcl_GetCharLength() has its own

-
-2009-02-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Several revisions to the shimmering
-	patterns between Unicode and UTF string reps.  Most notably the
-	call: objPtr = Tcl_NewUnicodeObj(...,0); followed by a loop of calls:
-	Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj(objPtr, u, n); will now grow and append to
-	the Unicode representation.  Before this commit, the sequence would
-	convert each append to UTF and perform the append to the UTF rep.
-	This is puzzling and likely a bug.  The performance of [string map]
-	is significantly improved by this change (according to the MAP
-	collection of benchmarks in tclbench).  Just in case there was some
-	wisdom in the old ways that I missed, I left in the ability to restore
-	the old patterns with a #define COMPAT 1 at the top of the file.

-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:	[Bug 2571597]: Fixed mistaken logic in
-	* tests/fileName.test:	TclFSGetPathType() that assumed (not
-	"absolute") => "relative". This is a false assumption on Windows,
-	where "volumerelative" is another possibility.
-
-2009-02-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Simplify the logic of the
-	Tcl_*SetObjLength() routines.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Rewrite GrowStringBuffer() so that it
-	has parallel structure with GrowUnicodeBuffer().  The revision permits
-	allocation attempts to continue all the way up to failure, with no
-	gap. It also directly manipulates the String and Tcl_Obj internals
-	instead of inefficiently operating via Tcl_*SetObjLength() with all of
-	its extra protections and underdocumented special cases.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Another round of simplification on
-	the allocation macros.
-
-2009-02-17  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tcl.m4, win/configure: Check if cl groks _WIN64 already to
-	avoid CC manipulation that can screw up later configure checks.
-	Use 'd'ebug runtime in 64-bit builds.
-
-2009-02-17  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Pare back the length of the unicode
-	array in a non-extended String struct to one Tcl_UniChar, meant to
-	hold the terminating NUL character.  Non-empty unicode strings are
-	then stored by extending the String struct by stringPtr->maxChars
-	additional slots in that array with sizeof(Tcl_UniChar) bytes per
-	slot. This revision makes the allocation macros much simpler.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Factor out common GrowUnicodeBuffer()
-	and solve overflow and growth algorithm fallbacks in it.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Factor out common GrowStringBuffer().
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Convert Tcl_AppendStringsToObj into
-	* tests/stringObj.test:		a radically simpler implementation
-	where we just loop over calls to Tcl_AppendToObj.  This fixes [Bug
-	2597185].  It also creates a *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY *** in
-	that T_ASTO can now allocate more space than is strictly required,
-	like all the other Tcl_Append* routines.  The incompatibility was
-	detected by test stringObj-6.5, which I've updated to reflect the
-	new behavior.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Revise buffer growth implementation
-	in ExtendStringRepWithUnicode.  Use cheap checks to determine that
-	no reallocation is necessary without cost of computing the precise
-	number of bytes needed.  Also make use of the string growth algortihm
-	in the case of repeated appends.

-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	[Bug 2603158]: Added protections from
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:		invalid memory accesses when we append
-	* tests/stringObj.test:		(some part of) a Tcl_Obj to itself.
-	Added the appendself and appendself2 subcommands to the
-	[teststringobj] testing command and added tests to the test suite.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Factor out duplicate code from
-	Tcl_AppendObjToObj.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Replace the 'size_t uallocated' field
-	of the String struct, storing the number of bytes allocated to store
-	the Tcl_UniChar array, with an 'int maxChars' field, storing the
-	number of Tcl_UniChars that may be stored in the allocated space.
-	This reduces memory requirement a small bit, and makes some range
-	checks simpler to code.
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:	Replace the [teststringobj ualloc] testing
-	* tests/stringObj.test:	command with [teststringobj maxchars] and
-	update the tests.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Removed limitation in
-	Tcl_AppendObjToObj where the char length of the result was only
-	computed if the appended string was all single byte characters.
-	This limitation was in place to dodge a bug in Tcl_GetUniChar.
-	With that bug gone, we can take advantage of always recording the
-	length of append results when we know it.
-
-2009-02-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Revisions so that we avoid creating
-	the strange representation of an empty string with
-	objPtr->bytes == NULL and stringPtr->hasUnicode == 0.  Instead in
-	the situations where that was being created, create a traditional
-	two-legged stork representation (objPtr->bytes = tclEmptyStringRep
-	and stringPtr->hasUnicode = 1).  In the situations where the strange
-	rep was treated differently, continue to do so by testing
-	stringPtr->numChars == 0 to detect it.  These changes make the code
-	more conventional so easier for new maintainers to pick up.  Also
-	sets up further simplifications.
-
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:	Revise updates to [teststringobj] so we don't
-	get blocked by MODULE_SCOPE limits.
-
-2009-02-12  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Rewrites of the routines
-	Tcl_GetCharLength, Tcl_GetUniChar, Tcl_GetUnicodeFromObj,
-	Tcl_GetRange, and TclStringObjReverse to use the new macro, and
-	to more simply and clearly split the cases depending on whether
-	a valid unicode rep is present or needs to be created.
-	New utility routine UnicodeLength(), to compute the length of unicode
-	buffer arguments when no length is passed in, with built-in
-	overflow protection included.  Update three callers to use it.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	New macro TclNumUtfChars meant to be a faster
-	replacement for a full Tcl_NumUtfChars() call when the string has all
-	single-byte characters.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Simplified Tcl_GetCharLength by
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:		removing code that did nothing.
-	Added early returns from Tcl_*SetObjLength when the desired length
-	is already present; adapted test command to the change.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Re-implemented AppendUtfToUnicodeRep
-	so that we no longer pass through Tcl_DStrings which have their own
-	sets of problems when lengths overflow the int range.  Now AUTUR and
-	FillUnicodeRep share a common core routine.
-
-2009-02-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOGetDefineCmdContext): Use the

-	shenanigans. Bug found by Federico Ferri.
-
-2009-02-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Re-implemented AppendUnicodeToUtfRep

-	sets of problems when lengths overflow the int range.  Now AUTUR and
-	UpdateStringOfString share a common core routine.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Changed type of the 'allocated' field
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:		of the String struct (and the
-	TestString counterpart) from size_t to int since only int values are
-	ever stored in it.

-	implementation.
-
-2009-01-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (Tcl_ClassSetConstructor):
-	[Bug 2531577]: Ensure that caches of constructor chains are cleared
-	when the constructor is changed.
-
-2009-01-26  Alexandre Ferrieux  <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:   [Bug 1028264]: WSACleanup() too early.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: The fix introduces "late exit handlers" for
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:   similar late process-wide cleanups.
-
-2009-01-26  Alexandre Ferrieux  <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: [Bug 2446662]: Resync Win behavior on RST with
-	that of unix (EOF).
-
-2009-01-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclZlib.c (ChanClose): [Bug 2536400]: Only generate error
-	messages in the interpreter when the thread is not being closed down.
-
-2009-01-23  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/zlib.n: Added a note that 'zlib push' is reversed by 'chan pop'.
-
-2009-01-22  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	CONSTify TclPrintInstruction (TIP #27)

-2009-01-22  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: Corrected a typo ($(SHLIB_VERSION) should be
-	${SHLIB_VERSION}).
-	* unix/configure: Autoconf 2.59
-
-2009-01-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c (ReflectClose): [Bug 2458202]:
-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c (ReflectClose): Closing a channel may supply
-	NULL for the 'interp'. Test for finalization needs to be different,
-	and one place has to pull the interp out of the channel instead.
-
-2009-01-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: New fix for [Bug 2494093] replaces the
-	flawed attempt committed 2009-01-09.
-
-2009-01-19  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: [Patch 907924]:Added a CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR
-	* unix/tcl.m4:      parameter so that distributors can control where
-	tclConfig.sh goes. Made the installation of 'ldAix' conditional upon
-	actually being on an AIX system. Allowed for downstream packagers to
-	customize SHLIB_VERSION on BSD-derived systems. Thanks to Stuart
-	Cassoff for his help.
-	* unix/configure: Autoconf 2.59
-
-2009-01-19  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/build.vc.bat: Improved tools detection and error message
-	* win/makefile.vc: Reorganized the $(TCLOBJ) file list into separate
-	parts for easier maintenance. Matched all sources built using -GL to
-	both $(lib) and $(link) to use -LTCG and avoid a warning message.
-	Addressed the over-building nature of the htmlhelp target by moving
-	from a pseudo target to a real target dependent on the entire docs/
-	directory contents.
-	* win/nmakehlp.c: Removed -g option and GrepForDefine() func as it
-	isn't being used anymore. The -V option method is much better.
-
-2009-01-16  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Bump patchlevel to 8.6b1.1 to distinguish
-	* library/init.tcl:	CVS snapshots from the 8.6b1 and 8.6b2 releases
-	* unix/configure.in:	and to deal with the fact that the 8.6b1
-	* win/configure.in:	version of init.tcl will not [source] in the
-	HEAD version of Tcl.
-
-	* unix/configure:	autoconf-2.59
-	* win/configure:
-
-2009-01-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):	Reverted most
-	of the substance of my 2009-01-12 commit. NULLing the objProc field of
-	a Command when deleting it is important so that tests for certain
-	classes of commands don't return false positives when applied to
-	deleted command tokens. Overall change is now just replacement of a
-	false comment with a true one.
-
-2009-01-13  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: [Bug 2502365]: Building of head on HPUX is broken when
-	using the native CC.
-	* unix/configure (autoconf-2.59)
-
-2009-01-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_ThrowObjCmd):	Move implementation of [throw]
-	* library/init.tcl (throw):		to C from Tcl.
-
-2009-01-12  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken): One consequence of
-	the NRE rewrite is that there are now situations where a NULL objProc
-	field in a Command struct is perfectly normal. Removed an outdated
-	comment in Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken that claimed we use
-	cmdPtr->objPtr==NULL as a test of command validity. In fact we use
-	cmdPtr->flags&CMD_IS_DELETED to perform that test. Also removed the
-	setting to NULL, since any extension following the advice of the old
-	comment is going to be broken by NRE anyway, and needs to shift to
-	flag-based testing (or stop intruding into such internal matters).
-	Part of [Bug 2486550].
-
-2009-01-09  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (STRING_SIZE): [Bug 2494093]: Corrected
-	failure to limit memory allocation requests to the sizes that can be
-	supported by Tcl's memory allocation routines.
-
-2009-01-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceEnsembleCmd): [Bug 1558654]: Error out
-	when someone gives wrong # of args to [namespace ensemble create].
-
-2009-01-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (STRING_UALLOC): [Bug 2494093]: Added missing
-	parens required to get correct results out of things like
-	STRING_UALLOC(num + append).
-
-2009-01-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c, generic/tclIndexObj.c, generic/tclListObj.c,
-	* generic/tclObj.c, generic/tclStrToD.c, generic/tclUtil.c,
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Generate errorcodes for the error cases which
-	approximate to "I can't interpret that string as one of those" and
-	"You gave me the wrong number of arguments".
-
-2009-01-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/dict.n: [Tk Bug 2491235]: Added more examples.
-
-	* tests/oo.test (oo-22.1): Adjusted test to be less dependent on the
-	specifics of how [info frame] reports general frame information, and
-	instead to focus on what methods add to it; that's really what the
-	test is about anyway.
-
-2009-01-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/stringObj.test:	Revise tests that demand a NULL Tcl_ObjType
-	in certain values to construct those values with [testdstring] so
-	there's no lack of robustness depending on the shimmer history of
-	shared literals.
-
-2009-01-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Corrected twiddling in internals
-	of dictionaries so that literals can't get destroyed.
-
-	* tests/expr.test: [Bug 2006879]: Eliminate non-ASCII char.
-
-	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodsCmd,InfoClassMethodsCmd):
-	[Bug 2489836]: Only delete pointers that were actually allocated!
-
-	* generic/tclOO.c (TclNRNewObjectInstance, Tcl_NewObjectInstance):
-	[Bug 2481109]: Perform search for existing commands in right context.
-
-2009-01-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclNRSourceObjCmd): [Bug 2412068]: Make
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclNREvalFile):    implementation of the
-	[source] command be NRE enabled so that [yield] inside a script
-	sourced in a coroutine can work.
-
-2009-01-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: Tidy up spacing and code style.
-
-2009-01-03  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl (tcl::clock::add): Fixed error message formatting
-	in the case where [clock add] is presented with a bad switch.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-65.1) Added a test case for the above
-	problem [Bug 2481670].
-
-2009-01-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): [Bug 878333]: Force the use of the
-	compatibility version of mkstemp() on IRIX.
-	* unix/configure.in, unix/Makefile.in (mkstemp.o):
-	* compat/mkstemp.c (new file): [Bug 741967]: Added a compatibility
-	implementation of the mkstemp() function, which is apparently needed
-	on some platforms.

-
-	* tests/expr.test:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for 'expr +
-	{[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug 3736] and seg fault on 'expr
-	+ {[error]}' (different cause) that was caused by a correct
-	optimization that didn't correctly track how it was modifying the
-	source string in the opt. The optimization was removed, which means
-	that:
-		expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
-	will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be written:
-		expr {1 + [string length abc]}
-	which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents:
-		expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
-	from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for degenerate cases

-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
-	TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName() and
-	added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and other "big"
-	shells more easily without requiring a copy of the main() code.

-
-1999-11-30  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>

-
-	* generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize time

-	to stdout instead of the specified output file in some cases.
-
-1999-11-19  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c: backed out change from 1999-11-18 as it could

-	http:: package (better support for tls/SSL), as well as -type argument
-	to http::geturl. [RFE 2617]
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: removed extra decr of numLevels in Tcl_EvalObjEx

-	mentioned in the 10-29 change. Also added error handling for failed
-	writes on the socket during the protocol.
-
-1999-11-09  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode.
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29
-	Purify noted new leaks with that code
-

-	possible unbalanced open brace in a comment
-
-	* library/init.tcl: removed the installed binary directory from the

-	* tools/tcl.wse.in: updated to 8.3a1, fixed install of twind.tcl and
-	koi8-r.enc files
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX
-
-1999-10-29  Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount in two
-	ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use the special
-	Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of lock contention. Second,

-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Fix terminating helper threads by holding any
-	mutexes from the primary thread while waiting for the helper thread to
-	terminate. Without these changes, the test suite hangs on WinNT with 2
-	CPUs and threads enabled. Open issue, seems to be a sporadic hang on
-	dual CPU systems still (very rare).

-1999-07-23  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/info.test:
-	* generic/tclParse.c: Removed patch for info command, breaks test
-	cases on Unix. Patch was bad and needs to be redone properly. [Bug
-	2382]
-
-1999-07-22  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* Changed version to 8.2b2.

-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Fix ANSI-style prototypes based on patch from
-	Ulrich Ring. [Bug 2391]
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Need to make install-sh executable before calling
-	(with chmod +x). [Bug 2413]
-
-	* tests/var.test:
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug that caused a seg. fault when using
-	"array set a(b) {}", which is a bad array name anyway. Now the "array
-	set" command will return an error in this case. Added test case and
-	fixed existing test. [Bug 2427]

-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclUtf.c: Changed function declarations in
-	non-platform-specific public APIs to use "unsigned long" instead of
-	"size_t", which may not be defined on certain compilers (rather than
-	include sys/types.h, which may not exist).
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
-	distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
-	files, but needed the configure script itself.
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++
-	makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0.
-
-	* doc/open.n: Added documentation of \\.\comX notation for opening

-	to move the handling of the socket event window in a separate thread.
-	It also turned out that Win95 & Win98 were, in some cases, getting
-	multiple FD_ACCEPTs but only handling one. Added a count for the
-	FD_ACCEPT to take care of this. Tested on NT4 SP3, NT4 SP4, Win95, and
-	Win98. [Bug 2178 2256 2259 2329 2323 2355]

-
-	* generic/tclInitScript.h:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: merged code with 8.0.5. We now use an

-	Also fixed a bug in which caused the value of TCL_LIBRARY env var to
-	be ignored.
-	* unix/tclWinInit.c: just updated some comments.

-	wording, fixed changebars, made two examples easier to read.
-
-1999-07-11  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Since the makefile.vc should continue to work while
-	we're working out bugs/issues in the new TEA-style
-	autoconf/configure/gmake build mechanism for Windows, the version
-	numbers of the Tcl libraries need to remain in sync. Modified the
-	version numbers in the makefile to reflect the change to 8.2b1.
-
-1999-07-09  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/configure.in: Eval DLLSUFFIX, LIBSUFFIX, and EXESUFFIX in the
-	configure script so that substitutions get expanded before being
-	placed in the Makefile. The "d" portion for debug libraries and DLLs
-	was not being set properly.

-1999-07-06  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c: New implementation of serial port driver from
-	Rolf Shroedter (Rolf.Schroedter@dlr.de) that allows more than one byte
-	to be read from the port. Implemented using polling instead of
-	threads, there is a max. 10ms latency between checking the port for
-	file events. [Bug 1980 2217]
-
-1999-07-06  Brent Welch  <welch@scriptics.com>

-
-	* generic/tclParse.c: Changed parsing of variable names to allow empty
-	array names. Now "$(foo)" is a variable reference! Previous you had to

-	by Jean-Luc Fontaine for his STOOOP package.
-
-1999-07-01  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>

-	* doc/GetIndex.3:
-	* tests/binary.test:
-	* tests/winDde.test: Applied patch from Peter Hardie (with changes) to
-	fix problem with Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() when the key being passed is
-	the empty string. It used to match "" and return TCL_OK, but it should
-	have returned TCL_ERROR instead. Added test case to "binary" and "dde"
-	commands to check the behavior. Added documentation note as well.
-
-1999-06-26  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>

-
-	* tests/reg.test:

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for an
-	encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where the
-	locale is not found in the locale table. Ensure that setlocale() is
-	called at least once so X11 will initialize properly. Also, forces the
-	LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric processing in scripts is not
-	affected by the current locale setting. [Bug 1989]
-
-	* generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30 slots.
-	This seems to be about the right number for larger applications like
-	exmh. [Bug 1063]
-
-1999-05-12  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* doc/tclsh.1: Updated references to rc script names to accurately

-
-	* tests/regexp.test:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclRegexp.h:
-	* generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache with
-	a per-thread cache. Changed the Regexp object to take advantage of
-	this extra cache. Added a reference count to the TclRegexp type so
-	regexps can be shared by multiple objects. Removed the per-interp
-	regexp cache from the interpreter. Now regexps can be used with no
-	need for an interpreter. [Bug 1063]
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName if
-	the value can be determined from the USERNAME environment variable.
-	GetUserName is very slow.

-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA):
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA): Fixed to copy
-	arglist using memcpy instead of assignment so it works properly on
-	OS/390. [Bug 1997]
-

-	* tests/string.test:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's string
-	patch which includes the following changes [Bug 1845]:
-	- string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp behavior)
-	- added string equal (just a few lines of code blended in with string
-	  compare)
-	- added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons
-	- string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression
-	  I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex, which means
-	  that the list commands also benefit, as well as string range, et al.
-	- added [string repeat string count]
-	  Repeats given string number of times
-	- added string replace, string equiv to lreplace
-	  (quasi opposite of string range):
-		string replace first last ?string?
-	  Example of use, replacing end of string with ... should the string
-	  be more than 16 chars long:
-		string replace $string 16 end "..."
-	  This just returns the string len < 16, so it will only affect the
-	  long strings.
-	- added optional first and last args to string to*
-	  This allows you to just affect certain regions of a string with the
-	  command (like just capping the first letter). I found the original
-	  totitle to be too draconian to be useful.
-	- added [string map charMap string]
-	  where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to what one
-	  might get from [array get]. Each and can be multiple chars (or none
-	  at all). For Tcl/CGI users, this is a MAJOR speed booster.
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid modifying
-	eval'ed strings that are already null terminated. [Bug 1793]
-
-	* tests/binary.test:
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where type
-	was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug 1975, 2047]
-
-1999-04-30  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>

-	* generic/tclParse.c: Fixed memory leak in CommandComplete.
-
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub
-	table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from C++.
-	[Bug 1934]
-
-	* Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes.
-
-1999-04-28  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* mac/tclMacResource.c:
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:
-	* generic/tclObj.c:
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string
-	representation before freeing the internal rep. This helps with
-	debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free proc
-	is invoked.
-
-1999-04-27  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals get

-
-1999-04-23  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:

-
-1999-04-23  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/encoding/koi8-r.enc:

-
-1999-04-22  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that is
-	the actual keyword. This eliminates the need for some -D flags from
-	the makefile.
-
-	* generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines various
-	Windows macros that are needed before deciding which platform porting
-	file to use.
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: lint
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit when
-	building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked. This
-	could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but should be
-	simpler in the long run.
-
-1999-04-22  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a hook
-	procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte codes are
-	emitted. This makes it possible to do postprocessing on the compiled
-	byte codes before the ByteCode is generated.
-
-	* generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj to
-	make it possible to create local unshared literal objects.
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that
-	found used by tcl_findLibrary.
-
-1999-04-22  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to avoid
-	creating a window to handle sockets. API not available on Win95 and
-	needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use the older
-	(window-based) scheme on those two OSes.

-	* library/encoding/euc-cn.enc:
-	* tools/encoding/gb2312.txt:
-	* tools/encoding/cp950.txt:
-	* tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of
-	GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding. EUC-CN is a variant of GB2312
-	that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set and
-	includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug 632]
-
-1999-04-13  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket if
-	FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not. Some strange problem with
-	either Win32 or a socket driver. [Bug 1664 1776]
-
-1999-04-09  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the pipe
-	used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data. When calling
-	the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock the
-	notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again. Found as a
-	result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug 1700]
-
-1999-04-06  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>

-1999-04-06  Bryan Surles  <surles@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c:
-	* generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a common

-	create an env array w/ no elements.
-
-	* generic/tclEnv.c:
-	* generic/tclWinInit.h:
-	* generic/tclUnixInit.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant. Changed the
-	FindVariable routine to TclpFindVariable, that now does a case
-	insensitive string comparison on Windows, and not on UNIX. [Bug 1299,
-	1500]
-
-1999-04-05  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/io.test: Minor test cleanup.

-
-	* tests/safe.test:
-	* doc/safe.n:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so create
-	a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system <name>" but allow all
-	other uses including "encoding system". Added test cases and updated
-	the man page for Safe Tcl.
-

-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: Moved global regexps into thread local

-	Windows is slow to release sockets.
-
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c:
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed race condition where background threads
-	were terminated while they still held a lock in the notifier.

-1999-04-02  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/http.test: Fixed bad test initialization code.

-	Tcl is about to enter an external modal event loop instead of at
-	startup time. This will avoid the various problems that people have

-	line was available for reading, which meant that when you did a gets
-	or read, it blocked (even in nonblocking mode). Now, it should work
-	the same as Unix: fileevents fire when an entire line is ready, and
-	gets and read do not block in non-blocking mode. Added an interactive
-	test case to check for this.

-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: Fixed the initialization of an array so that the
-	Sun 5.0 C compiler wouldn't complain.
-
-	* unix/configure.in: Added support for --enable-64bit. For now, this
-	is only supported on Solaris 7 64bit (SunOS 5.7) using the Sun

-
-1999-03-18  Scott Stanton  <stanton@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel, Tcl_MakeFileChannel): Changed
-	to only test for console or comm handles when the type is
-	FILE_TYPE_CHAR to avoid useless tests on simple files. Also reordered
-	tests so consoles are tested first as this is more common.
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Regularized usage of mkd and rmd and rm.
-
-	* library/encoding/shiftjis.enc:
-	* tools/encoding/shiftjis.txt: Missing/incorrect characters in

-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFiles): Changed to ignore the
-	FS_CASE_IS_PRESERVED bit and always return exactly what we get from
-	the system.

-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c: Changed so channel drivers wait for the

-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Add Tcl_GetVersion() function to the public C

-	new macros USE_TCL_STUBS and USE_TCL_STUB_PROCS that enable use of
-	stubs and disable stub macros respectively. All of the public and
-	private function declarations from tcl.h and tclInt.h have moved into

-	* generic/panic.c: Renamed panic to Tcl_Panic.
-
-1999-02-25  Scott Redman  <redman@scriptics.com>

-
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents and

-
-1999-02-10  Scott Stanton  <stanton@GASPODE>
-
-	INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.5b2:
-
-	* test/winPipe.test: Changed to remove echoArgs.tcl temporary file
-	when done.
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (TclGetExtension): Changed behavior so the
-	split happens at the last period in the name instead of the first
-	period of the last run of periods. So, "foo..o" is split into "foo."
-	and ".o" now. [Bug 1126]
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Added better support for paths with spaces in the
-	name. Added .lib and support .dlls to the install-binaries target.
-	Added generate of a pkgIndex.tcl script to the install-libraries
-	target.
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c:
-	* unix/tclAppInit.c:
-	* mac/tclMacAppInit.c:
-	* generic/tclTest.c: Changed some EXTERN declarations to extern since
-	they are not defining exported interfaces. This avoids generating
-	useless declspec() attributes and makes the windows makefile simpler.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_AppInit declaration to end and cleared out
-	TCL_STORAGE_CLASS so it is not declared with a declspec().
-
-	* tests/interp.test:
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteAlias): Changed to use
-	Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken so we handle renames properly. This avoids
-	senseless panic. [Bug 736]
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:
-	* doc/socket.n: Applied Gordon Chaffee's patch to handle failures
-	during asynchronous socket connection operations. This adds a new
-	"-error" fconfgure option to socket channels. [Bug 893]
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Applied patch from Viktor Dukhovni to rationalize

-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug in namespace tail computation. Fixed bug
-	where upvar could resurrect a namespace variable whose namespace had
-	been deleted.
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileExprCmd): Eliminated yet another
-	bogus optimization in expression compilation.
-
-	* unix/configure.in: Added branch for BSD/OS-4* to shared library case
-	statement. [Bug 975]
-	Fixed to correctly handle IRIX 6.5 n32 library support. [Bug 1117]
-
-	* win/winDumpExts.c: Patched to be pickier about stripping @'s. [Bug
-	920]
-
-	* library/http2.0/http.tcl: Added catch around eof test in CopyDone
-	since the user may have already called http::reset. [Bug 1108]
-
-	* unix/configure.in: Changed Linux and IRIX to set SHLIB_LIBS to LIBS
-	so shared libraries are linked with the system libraries. [Bug 1018]
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (CompileExprWord): Fixed exception stack
-	overflow bug caused by missing statement. [Bug 928]
-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Objectified the "open" command. [Bug 1113]
-
-	* generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_ErrnoId, Tcl_ErrnoMsg): When using egcs,
-	ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP are the same, so now we handle that case. [Bug
-	1137]
-
-	* library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans.
-	- If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this empty
-	  string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all, it only
-	  slows down later package processing.
-	- If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir" fails.
-	  Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch" around
-	  it.
-	- In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function only
-	  works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms "?.?a?",
-	  "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead, then it allows
-	  anything to be appended to the patchLevel string. And it is more
-	  efficient.
-	- The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then the
-	  type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want to add
-	  their own setup types.
-	[RFE 1138] [Bug 978]
-
-	* win/tclWinReg.c:
-	* doc/registry.n: Added support for HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA and
-	HKEY_DYN_DATA keys. [Bug 1109]
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclPlatformInit): Added code to ensure tcl_pkgPath
-	is set to "" when no registry entry is found. [Bug 978]

-
-	* Merged Tcl 8.0.5b1 changes.
-

-
-	* Fixed lots of files that used TCL_THREAD instead of TCL_THREADS.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_FreeEncoding): Moved most of the code
-	into a static FreeEncoding routine that does not grab the
-	encodingMutex to avoid deadlocks/races when called from other routines
-	that already have the mutex.
-
-1998-12-09  Scott Stanton  <stanton@GASPODE>
-
-	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Fixed bad export list, fixed so all

-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept arguments
-	containing spaces from being properly quoted.
-
-	* tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl
-	library directory. This keeps the tests from accidentally picking up
-	stuff in installed packages.
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringMatch): Changed to match 8.0 behavior
-	in corner case where there is no closing bracket.
-
-1998-12-02  Scott Stanton  <stanton@GASPODE>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateCommandChannel): Changed reader/writer

-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars): Fixed so extraneous
-	flushes do not happen in line mode.
-	(TranslateOutputEOL): Made translation more efficient in line mode and
-	fixed a buffer overflow bug in CRLF translation. [Bug 887]

-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestevalobjvObjCmd): Updated for EvalObjv change.
-
-	* tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change.
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (EvalObjv, Tcl_EvalObjv): Changed Tcl_EvalObjv

-
-	* regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer.
-
-1998-11-17  Scott Stanton  <stanton@GASPODE>
-
-	* tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and added
-	Unicode support. This required a complete reimplementation of the
-	command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware. Two new
-	features were added in the process: %n to return the current number of
-	characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument order specifiers
-	similar to those provided by the "format" command. [Bug 833]
-
-	* tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned to
-	improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on systems
-	that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values (e.g. Solaris and
-	HP-UX). [Bug 834]

-	input string in place because name lookup operations could have
-	arbitrary side effects
-
-	* tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter
-
-	* tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added
-	warnings around code that modifies strings in place
-
-	* tclExecute.c: fixed off-by-one copying error, fixed merge bugs
-
-	* tclEvent.c: changed so USE_TCLALLOC is tested for value instead of
-	definition
-
-	* tclCompCmds.c: replaced SCCS strings, added warnings around code
-	that modifies strings in place
-
-	* interp.test: added test for interp deleting itself
-
-1998-09-30  Scott Stanton  <stanton@GASPODE>
-
-	* makefile.vc: fixed so TCL_LIBRARY is set before running tcltest
-
-	* tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclpFinalize, cleanup of merges

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* tests/expr-old.test: Re-wrote Tcl's [expr rand()] and [expr
-	srand($seed)] implementations, fixing a range error on some 64-bit
-	platforms. Added tests that detect the bug. The rewrite changes the
-	seed -> sequence map on 64-bit platforms, only for seed >= 2^31, a
-	slight incompatibility. [Bug 121072, Patch 102781]

-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:
-	* library/opt/optparse.tcl:
-	* library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: Where [uplevel] is used in a proc to
-	evaluate a Tcl built-in command in the caller's context, the built-in
-	commands are now fully namespace-qualified. This prevents problems
-	when the caller context is in a namespace where the built-in command
-	name has been used by a command in the namespace. (For example,
-	[::ns::set] might be called instead of the intended [::set]). [Bug
-	119422, Patch 102545]

-
-	* docs/scan.n:
-	* tests/scan.test:
-	* generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): changed %o and %x to use strtoul
-	instead of strtol to correctly preserve scan<>format conversion of
-	large integers. [Patch 102663, Bug 124600]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Commited patch fixing

-
-2000-12-08  Jeff Hobbs  <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
-

-	recognizing the proper set of executable extensions on Windows. [Patch
-	102719]
-
-2000-12-08  Andreas Kupries  <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Changed dangerous code to
-	something less critical. This fixes [Bug 119417], part A without
-	affecting the speed when loading encodings.
-
-2000-12-08  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-

-	124558]
-
-2000-12-07  Jeff Hobbs  <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: added note about need to updated
-	library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl with minor version increment.
-
-	* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: updated to use 84 version to reflect the

-
-2000-12-06  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-

-	attemptckalloc (was defined to Tcl_AttempDbCkalloc, should have been
-	Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc). [Bug 124384]
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added TCL_MEM_DEBUG versions of

-
-	* tests/expr.test (expr-13.17): Check that [expr {!$var}] can negate

-
-	All of the changes below are described in TIP #7 ~ Specification and
-	result from the application of the patch contained therein. Creator of
-	the patch is Kevin Kenny <kennykb@crd.ge.com>. The patch used here is
-	actually a bit different. Two MS specific constant values (format
-	FOOui64) were replaced with a more portable formatting of the values
-	and an additional cast to LONGLONG. My cross-compiling gcc was unable
-	to process the original form. [Patch 102459]
-
-	* tclWinTime.c: Add to the static data a set of variables that manage
-	the phase-locked techniques, including a ''CRITICAL_SECTION'' to guard
-	them so that multi-threaded code is stable.
-
-	* tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetSeconds'' to call ''TclpGetTime'' and
-	return the 'seconds' portion of the result. This change is necessary
-	to make sure that the two times are consistent near the rollover from
-	one second to another.
-
-	* tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetClicks'' to use TclpGetTime to
-	determine the click count as a number of microseconds.
-
-	* tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetTime'' to return the time as M*Q+B,
-	where Q is the result of ''QueryPerformanceCounter'', and M and B are
-	variables maintained by the phase-locked loop to keep the result as
-	close as possible to the system clock. The ''TclpGetTime'' call will
-	also launch the phase-lock management in a separate thread the first
-	time that it is invoked. If the performance counter is unavailable, or
-	if its frequency is not one of the two common 8254-compatible rates,
-	then ''TclpGetTime'' will return the result of ''ftime'' as it does in
-	Tcl 8.3.2.
-
-	* tclWinTime.c: Add the clock calibration procedure. The calibration
-	is somewhat complex; to save space, the reader is referred to the
-	reference implementation for the details of how the time base and
-	frequency are maintained.
-
-	* tclWinNotify.c: Modify ''Tcl_Sleep'' to test that the process has,
-	in fact, slept for the requisite time by calling ''TclpGetTime'' and
-	comparing with the desired time. Otherwise, roundoff errors may cause
-	the process to awaken early.
-
-	* tclWinTest.c: Add a ''testwinclock'' command. This command returns a
-	four element list comprising the seconds and microseconds portions of
-	the system clock and the seconds and microseconds portions of the Tcl
-	clock.
-
-	* winTime.test: Add to the test suite a test that makes sure that the
-	Tcl clock stays within 1.1 ms of the system clock over the duration of
-	the test.
-
-2000-11-21  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/global.n:
-	* doc/upvar.n:
-	* doc/variable.n: Improved documentation to mention that variables so
-	created are listed in [info locals] and added a few more cross-links
-	between these commands. [Bug 119387]
-
-2000-11-17  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/safe.test: (safe-4.3):
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed again. Now passes all the
-	tests, though one needed modifying since it required the wrong answer.
-	(Why on earth do we have inline modification of argument strings? This
-	sort of thing is horrendous to debug and doesn't work well in a
-	multithreaded environment!) [Bug 119192]
-
-	* tests/var.test: (var-1.19) If my attempts to fix the problem aren't
-	right yet, my attempts to describe it look pretty good to me...
-
-2000-11-16  Andreas Kupries  <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h (line 69): Changed reference to winsock2.h into
-	winsock.h. This was a leftover from a foray into using winsock version
-	2 (History lesson from Scott Redman and Jeff Hobbs). This code was no
-	problem when compiling Tcl itself, but could trip extensions. [Bug
-	122568]
-
-2000-11-15  Jeff Hobbs  <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: removed bp.c references (hasn't existed in a long
-	time). Corrected 'make dist' to make dist with unversioned library
-	directories (same as out of cvs), so make install works correctly with
-	either source tree.
-
-2000-11-15  Jeff Hobbs  <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): reverted fix below as it broke all
-	other array unset error reporting.  Bug 119192 is still open.
-
-2000-11-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed references to part2 to use
-	elName instead in various error message generating spots. [Bug 119192]
-
-2000-11-03  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/.cvsignore: Removed 'configure' from the glob list now that it's
-	included.
-
-2000-11-03  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	8.4a2 RELEASE
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries, dist):
-	* win/makefile.vc (install-libraries):
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): updated to install unversioned
-	library directories into versioned directories.
-
-	* tools/tcl.wse.in: updated for unversioning of library dirs
-
-	* unix/mkLinks: updated mkLinks with latest doc updates
-
-	* doc/Tcl_Main.3: added docs for Tcl_SetMainLoop
-
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_SetMainLoop proc that allows people to
-	set a main loop that will run for tclsh.
-	* generic/tcl.h: added Tcl_MainLoopProc typedef
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_SetMainLoop, StdinProc, Prompt): new
-	StdinProc and Prompt static procs and Tcl_SetMainLoop stubs proc. The
-	first two handle a fileevent based prompt (taken from tkMain.c).
-	Tcl_SetMainLoop enables the interactive setting of a main loop
-	procedure. This enables Tk to be a loadable package.
-
-2000-11-02  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: tclLibraryPath Tcl_Obj didn't have a way to
-	share its data among threads. This caused Tcl_Init() to always fail in
-	threads. Added a way to pass the data around with a global char*.
-	[BUG: 5301]

-2000-11-02  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/dltest/configure:
-	* win/configure:
-	* tools/configure: checked in configure scripts so people doing CVS
-	checkouts aren't required to have autoconf. Changes to configure.in in
-	the future will require the corresponding configure script to also be
-	re-autoconf'ed and checked in.
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/tcl.m4: makefile fixes for Win64 support
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): minor cast
-	changes.
-
-2000-11-01  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: removed use of -lbsd and -ldl for AIX-5.
-
-	* tests/subst.test: added tests for non-zero return code handling by
-	subst.
-	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_EvalEx): corrected handling of non-zero,
-	non-error return code cases for subst. [Bug 119829]
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclVarTraceExists): Corrected excessive mem use
-	when info exists was called on a non-existent array element. [Bug
-	119213, 119336]
-
-2000-10-30  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/configure.in:
-	* win/Makefile.in:
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/tcl.rc:

-	scripts based on compile options.

-2000-10-30  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: added default encoding map from "ja_JP.eucJP" to
-	"euc-jp". (takahashi)
-
-	* tests/clock.test: corrected clock-2.* test numbering
-
-	* unix/configure.in (SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): removed code that was
-	commented out (it had been moved to tcl.m4's SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS
-	already).
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: consolidated gettimeofday check for AIX.
-
-2000-10-27  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* unix/tcl.m4: added support for AIX-5.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_NotifyChannel): removed #ifdef around code for
-	old channel structures, placed preserve/release around statePtr
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): the statePtr for a channel was not
-	being freed when the last channel in a stack was freed, causing a mem
-	leak.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c: updated channel types to strict
-	TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style to avoid compiler warnings. They work
-	either way, but this avoids compiler warnings (that worries people).
-
-2000-10-27  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed a cd into the test directory
-	in runAllTests that screwed up the temporary directory setting,
-	effectively preventing users from running tests on multiple platforms
-	at the same time.
-
-2000-10-26  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): NULL was being set to "attr"
-	which was a DWORD. Changed NULL to zero because a 'void *' can't be
-	set to a DWORD to avoid the compiler warning.
-
-2000-10-24  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* tests/all.tcl: Removed support for tcltest 1.0.
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test:
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
-	* library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
-	* docs/tcltest.n: Moved tcltest2 code so that it's the standard
-	version of tcltest. Removed all tcltest2 files (tests/tcltest2.test,
-	library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl, docs/tcltest2.n).
-
-2000-10-20  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): made the stat call only
-	occur when necessary (for 'glob' command). Significantly speeds up
-	glob command from 8.3. [BUG: 6216]
-
-2000-10-19  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
-	* tests/tcltest2
-	* doc/tcltest2.n: Code and documentation cleanup. Modified -verbose to
-	take list of keywords as well as string of letters. Removed Tcl
-	version information from tcltest. Removed tcltest::grep from tcltest
-	package. Added optional 3rd directory argument to
-	makeFile/makeDirectory and removeFile/removeDirectory.
-
-	* tests/basic.test: Changed references to tcltest::tclVersion to
-	hard-coded numbers.
-	* generic/tcl.h: Changed reference to tcltest2.tcl and tcltest.tcl in
-	comments to tests/basic.test.
-
-2000-10-06  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c: moved Win2K bug case test with GetStdHandle() from
-	TclpGetDefaultStdChannel into Tcl_MakeFileChannel to enable a more
-	general method in detecting invalid OS handles rather than just a
-	specific known case. [BUG: 5971]
-
-2000-10-06  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: extra tests for 'file channels' that include
-	multiple interpreter tests and channel sharing
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetChannelNamesEx): corrected function (and
-	consequently 'file channels') to return channels that are actually
-	registered for this specific interp, rather than this thread.
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3: fixed spelling mistakes
-
-2000-09-29  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
-	* tests/tcltest2.test:
-	* doc/tcltest2.n: Modified the new form of the test command to accept
-	both attribute-value pairs and command line options. Updated the tests
-	and the documentation for this new format. Also changed the option
-	names for the test command.
-
-2000-09-29  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialGetOptionProc): corrected reporting of
-	space parity on Windows (Eason) [Bug 6057].
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: commented use of TESTFLAGS
-	* unix/Makefile.in: added TESTFLAGS to test target to conform with
-	Windows makefile and TEA style.
-
-	* tests/stack.test: prevented possible crash on systems with low
-	default stacksize (Tru64, AIX) in infinite recursion test. A solution
-	to check remaining stack space in the core is best, but hard to do in
-	a cross-platform manner.
-
-	* generic/tclIOGT.c (FLUSH_DELAY): renamed DELAY define to FLUSH_DELAY
-	to avoid defn conflict using Tru64's cc.
-
-2000-09-28  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* tools/tcl.wse.in: added tclPlatDecls.h and tkPlatDecls.h to the
-	Windows .exe install.
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-6.20): corrected test to remove c:/tcl8975@
-	after creating it.
-
-	* tests/fileName.test: cleaned up the testing of glob patterns for
-	c:/globTest (Windows) to directly create/remove directory.
-
-2000-09-27  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tclIO.c: updated Tcl_IsChannelShared,
-	Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
-	Tcl_IsChannelExisting, and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers to conform to the
-	new stacked channel implementation. Their stub slots were also moved
-	to give preference to the new 8.3.2 stub functions. This will cause an
-	incompatibility with 8.4a1 only.
-	(StopCopy): fixed a bug introduced by a partial fix in 8.3.2 that
-	didn't set nonBlocking correctly when resetting the flags for the
-	write side. [Bug: 6261]
-
-	* doc/ChnlStack.3:
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3:
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclIO.c:

-	* win/tclWinChan.c:
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c:
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c:
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Up-port of changes made in 8.3.2 to 8.4a2 code
-	base. Most of these changes relate to the rewrite of the stacked
-	channel implementation, with a few config related fixes.
-
-	Following is an asynchronous include of the applicable ChangeLog
-	entries from 8.3.2.

-	** START OF ASYNCHRONOUS UP-PORT LOG (8.3.2 -> 8.4a2) **
-	********************************************************
-
-2000-08-07  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* doc/ChnlStack.3:
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3: updated the docs to be aware of the
-	TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style of Tcl channels.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel): added assertion to verify that
-	the new channel versioning will be binary compatible with older
-	channel drivers.
-
-2000-08-05  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIOGT.c (TclChannelTransform): fixed segfault that would
-	occur when transforming a channel with a proc that did not yet exist.
-	(Kupries)
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): added some lint init'ing of
-	statePtr and chan vars.
-
-2000-07-26  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	Merged core-8-3-1-io-rewrite back into core-8-3-1-branch. The
-	core-8-3-1-io-rewrite branch should now be considered defunct.
-
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclIO.c: moved the Tcl_Channel* macros from tcl.h to tclIO.c
-	and made them proper stubbed functions. These are: Tcl_ChannelName,
-	Tcl_ChannelVersion, Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc, Tcl_ChannelCloseProc,
-	Tcl_ChannelClose2Proc, Tcl_ChannelInputProc, Tcl_ChannelOutputProc,
-	Tcl_ChannelSeekProc, Tcl_ChannelSetOptionProc,
-	Tcl_ChannelGetOptionProc, Tcl_ChannelWatchProc,
-	Tcl_ChannelGetHandleProc, Tcl_ChannelFlushProc, and
-	Tcl_ChannelHandlerProc. These should be used to access the
-	Tcl_ChannelType structure instead of direct pointer dereferencing.
-
-	* tests/iogt.test: added RCS string, marked tests 2.* to be unixOnly
-	due to underlying system differences.
-
-2000-07-25 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* tests/iogt.test: (line 866f) New tests iogt-6.[01], highlighting
-	buffering trouble when stacking and unstacking transformations.
-	iogt-6.0 is solved, see the changes below. iogt-6.1 remains, for now,
-	due to the perceived complexity of solutions.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.h: (line 139f) struct Channel, added a buffer queue,
-	to hold data pushed back when stacking a transformation.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:
-	(line 91f, line 7434f) New internal function 'CopyBuffer'.  Derived
-	from 'CopyAndTranslateBuffer', with translation removed.
-	(line 1025f, line 1212f): Initialization of new queue.
-	(line 1164f, Tcl_StackChannel): Pushback of input queue.
-	(line 1293f, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Discard input and pushback.
-	(line 3748f, Tcl_ReadRaw): Modified to use data in the push back area
-	before going to the driver. Uses 'CopyBuffer', s.a.
-	(line 4702f, GetInput): Modified to use data in the push back area
-	before going to the driver.
- 	(line 4867f, Tcl_Seek): Modified to take pushback of the topmost
-	channel in a stack into account.
-	(line 5620f, Tcl_InputBuffered): See above. Added
-	'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. Analog to 'Tcl_InputBuffered' but for the
-	buffer area in the channel.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls: New public API 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. S.a.

-2000-07-17  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* win/Makefile.in:
-	* win/makefile.vc: added tclIOGT.c to objects list to compile.
-
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: commented out internal decls for
-	TclTestChannelCmd and TclTestChannelEventCmd as they were moved to
-	tclTest.c. Added new decls for TclChannelEventScriptInvoker and
-	TclChannelTransform.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): stopped masking out of the
-	TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE bits from the state flags in CloseChannel,
-	instead adding extra intelligence to CheckChannelErrors with a new
-	CHANNEL_RAW_MODE bit for special behavior when called from Raw channel
-	APIs.
-
-2000-07-13  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (StackSetBlockMode): moved set of chanPtr outside of
-	blockModeProc check to avoid infinite loop when blockModeProc was
-	NULL. Updated TransformSeekProc to not call Tcl_Seek directly
-	(Kupries).
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c: updated fileChannelType to v2 channel struct
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c: updated consoleChannelType to v2 channel struct
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: updated pipeChannelType to v2 channel struct
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c: updated serialChannelType to v2 channel struct
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: updated tcpChannelType to v2 channel struct
-
-2000-07-11  Brent Welch	<welch@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_LIBS): Cleaned up unix-specific autoconf
-	variables.
-
-2000-07-11  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/iogt.test: made tests [345].0 not run by default as they were
-	failing in the new design, but I'm not convinced that the returned
-	result isn't correct.
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_GetTopChannel C API that returns the
-	current top channel of a channel stack. Tcl_GetChannel was changed
-	earlier to return the bottommost channel of a stack because that is
-	the one that is guaranteed to stay around the longest, and this was
-	needed to compensate for certain operations that want to look at the
-	state of the main channel. Most channel APIs already compensate for
-	grabbing the top, so it shouldn't be needed often.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_StackChannel, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Added
-	flushing of buffers (Kupries), removed use of DownChannel macro, added
-	Tcl_GetTopChannel public API to get to the top channel of the channel
-	stack (necessary for TLS). Rewrote Tcl_NotifyChannel for new channel
-	design (Kupries). Did some code cleanup in the transform code.
-	tclIO.c must still be broken into bits (separate out test code and
-	giot code, create tclIO.h).
-
-2000-07-10  Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* tests/iogt.test: Reverted some earlier changes as a fix by Jeff
-	revived the original and correct behaviour. IOW, the tests showed a
-	genuine error and I didn't see it :(.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Read|Write_Raw): Changed to directly use the
-	drivers and not DoRead|DoWrite. The latter use the buffering system,
-	encoding and eol-translation and this wreaks havoc with the data going
-	through the transformations. Both procedures use CheckForchannelErrors
-	and let it believe that there is no background copy in progress or
-	else stacked channels could not be used for that.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (TclCopyChannel, CopyData): Moved access to the
-	topmost channel from the first to the second procedure to make the
-	decision about that at the last possible time (Callbacks can change
-	the stacking).
-
-	test suite: failures of iogt-[345].0
-
-2000-07-06  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/iogt.test: new tests for stacked channel stuff based off new
-	'testchannel transform|unstack' code (Kupries IOGT extension).
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubsInit.c:
-	* generic/tclIO.c: complete rewrite of Tcl Channel code for stacked
-	channels. Channels are now designed to work in a more stacked fashion
-	with a shared ChannelState data structure.
-
-2000-06-02  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): removed the &ing out of
-	(TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) from the flags, as CloseChannel does this
-	on the next pass through for the top channel, and it appeared to be
-	causing hangs by not allowing the final flush.
-
-2000-06-01  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): Rewrote CloseChannel code to unstack
-	a channel during the close process. Fixed a refcount bug in
-	Tcl_UnstackChannel. [Bug: 5623]
-	(CloseChannel): further extended CloseChannel in the stacked case to
-	effect certain operations on the next channel that would have been
-	done in Tcl_Close.  Also added CHANNEL_CLOSED and removed
-	(TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) bits from chanPtr->flags. Changed final
-	reset of the WatchProc to check the chanDownPtr's (next) interestMask.

-	coding errors.
-
-2000-09-20  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Updated to load tcltest 2.0.
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl: New version of tcltest.
-	Cleanup of command line parsing: allows users to specify command line
-	arguments through an environment variable named TCLTEST_OPTIONS [RFE:
-	3748], does not respond to incorrect arguments, and forces usage of
-	entire flag name when using command line arguments. Defines accessor
-	procs for all tcltest variables. Allows users to use 'return' in test
-	scripts. Allow users to specify whether test files should be sourced
-	or run in a separate process. 'all.tcl' code moved to tcltest package.
-	'test' proc modified to use attribute-value pairs. Allow users to
-	specify what return codes, output, and errors can be compared and
-	whether these values should be compared using regexp, glob, or exact
-	matching. makeDirectory & removeDirectory now operate with respect to
-	temporaryDirectory [Bug: 6001]. Test results from tests run in slave
-	interpreters are now included in test totals [Bug: 1493]. Test files
-	that return error values are now reported.
-	* tests/all.tcl: Added code to check for the tcltest version loaded;
-	modified to figure out which tests to run based on the tcltest version
-	loaded.
-	* tests/tcltest.test: Modified to explicitly load version 1.0 of
-	tcltest.
-	* tests/tcltest2.test: New test suite for tcltest; includes all of the
-	old tests plus new ones reflecting changes made for version 2.0.
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: Added singleTestInterp constraint to cmdAH-31.2;
-	this test does not run if tests aren't sourced into a single
-	interpreter.
-	* tests/socket.test: Fixed two tests that were referencing variables
-	outside of scope.
-
-	* tools/tcl.wse.in: Added code to install tcltest2.tcl.
-
-	* doc/tcltest2.n: New documentation for tcltest version 2.0. Removes
-	documentation for tcltest namespace variables. Adds documentation for
-	new tcltest procs.
-
-	* unix/mkLinks: Added code to link to tcltest2.n.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added comment to modify tcltest2.tcl as well as
-	tcltest.tcl for version changes.
-
-2000-09-19  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): When using -all, all attempts
-	after the first to match the regexp against the string should include
-	the TCL_REG_NOTBOL flag, to avoid erroneously matching ^ in the middle
-	of the string. Added code to set this flag after the first pass
-	through the matching loop. [Bug: 6284].
-
-2000-09-19  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>

-
-	* generic/tcl.decls: Added stubs for the Tcl_Attempt* memory
-	allocators and for Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added #define's for attemptckalloc, attemptckrealloc,
-	which map to the Tcl_Attempt* memory allocators.
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added non-panic'ing versions of Tcl_Alloc,
-	Tcl_Realloc, etc.; these are called Tcl_AttemptAlloc,
-	Tcl_AttemptRealloc, etc. These are used by Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength and
-	the string obj append functions.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: Modified string growth algorithm to use
-	doubling algorithm as long as possible, and only fall back when that
-	fails. Added Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength, and modified
-	AppendUnicodeToUnicodeRep, AppendUtfToUtfRep, and
-	Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA to support this.
-
-2000-09-07  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* win/.cvsignore: changed the glob patterns a bit to exclude VC++
-	project conversion backups.
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: Stage-1 bug fix for TR#2460 "exec leaks memory".
-	Added more logic around the close-down of the pipe reader thread so as
-	to avoid, at all cost, a TerminateThread. Most cases with exec are
-	fixed, but I don't consider 2460 done yet. Closing down the read side
-	of a pipe before the child process, doesn't really fit the windows
-	model. [BUG: 2460]
-
-2000-09-07  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>

-	Tcl_WaitPid call in error case of process creation on Unix, as it
-	would lead to defunct processes. [Bug: 6148]
-
-	* tests/string.test: extended string repeat tests
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): changed STR_REPEAT to
-	preallocate the full space of the final string, avoided repeated
-	appends.
-
-	* doc/source.n:
-	* doc/Eval.3: added extra note about how to safe use ^Z in code, as it
-	is now a cross-platform (was just Windows) EOF char.
-
-2000-09-05  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c: fixed pedantic warning of incorrectly placed

-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: Applied patch from Gerhard Hintermayer to
-	provide a more conservative string growth algorithm for strings larger
-	than one megabyte; this allows more efficient use of memory for very
-	large strings.
-
-2000-08-25  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* tests/trace.test: Extended array tracing tests.
-
-	* doc/trace.n: Clarified information about when array traces will be
-	fired.
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): Corrected call to CallTraces
-	(for TCL_TRACE_ARRAY) to only be called when the variable is either an
-	array or is undefined, to ensure that array traces do not fire for
-	scalar variables.
-
-2000-08-24  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>

-
-2000-08-24  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	Overall change: Added support for command rename/delete traces and new
-	trace syntax, from patch from Vince Darley. Added support for array
-	traces for variables. [RFE: 5048, 5967].
-
-	* doc/trace.n: Updated documentation for new syntax; flagged old
-	syntax as deprecated; added documentation for command rename/delete
-	traces and variable array traces.
-
-	* tests/trace.test: Updated tests for new trace syntax; new tests for

-	variable traces).
-
-2000-08-20  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Added check for non-arrays for [array statistics]
-	command (patch from Mark Patton).
-
-2000-08-19  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h: without a previous '#include <windows.h>',
-	tclPlatDecls.h can't be parsed due to a missing definition of TCHAR.
-	Added a check to include it when not defined.
-
-	***POSSIBLE OBSCURE BUG*** could be caused when the compile flags for
-	the core happen to be different than a project who uses these publics
-	regarding -D_MBCS and -D_UNICODE. This added check might have to be
-	revisited later with a better understanding of the reprocusions. I
-	think TCHAR should be replaced with it's expansion.
-
-2000-08-18  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>

-
-2000-07-25  Eric Melski  <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (CallTraces): Added check for VAR_TRACE_ACTIVE on

-	* win/tclWinChan.c: Win2K OS bug with GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE)
-	giving the wrong answer. This made TclpGetDefaultStdChannel grab what
-	it thought was a valid native stdout handle. Added a new WriteFile()
-	test to make sure it's really valid. This OS bug doesn't affect the

-	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl:
-	* doc/msgcat.n:
-	* tests/msgcat.test: Applied patches from Chris Nelson, to provide the

-	mcload to use utf-8 encoding on when reading message catalog files,
-	and provides for better default behavior for determining the locale on

-
-	* tests/http.test
-	* doc/http.n
-	* library/http2.3/http.tcl: Fixed bug 5741, where unsuccessful geturl
-	calls sometimes leaked memory and resources (sockets). Also, switched
-	around some of the logic so that http::wait never throws an exception.
-	This is because in an asynchronous geturl, the command callback will
-	probably end up doing all the error handling anyway, and in an
-	asynchronous situation, the user expects to check the state when the
-	transaction completes, as opposed to being thrown an exception.	For
-	the http package, this menas the user can check http::status for
-	"error" and http::error for the error message after doing the
-	http::wait.

-
-	Overall changes:
-	  (1) Implementation of joinable threads for all platforms.
-	  (2) Additional API's for channels. Required to allow the thread
-	      extension to move channels between threads.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls (lines 1360f): Added Tcl_JoinThread,
-	Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel,
-	Tcl_SpliceChannel, Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers
-	(slots 394 to 400).
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Implemented Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,
-	Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
-	Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers.  Tcl_CutChannel
-	uses code from CloseChannel. Replaced this code by a call to
-	Tcl_CutChannel. Replaced several code fragments adding channels to
-	the channel list with calls to Tcl_SpliceChannel. Removed now unused
-	variables from CloseChannel and Tcl_UnstackChannel.
-	Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers uses code from Tcl_Close. Replaced this code
-	by a call to Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers. Removed now unused variables
-	from Tcl_Close. Added the subcommands 'cut', 'forgetch', 'splice' and
-	'isshared' to the test code (TclTestChannelCmd).
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThread.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using the
-	pthread-functionality.
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Fixed several small typos in comments.
-	Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform independent emulation
-	layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c below). Added 'joinLock' to
-	serialize Tcl_CreateThread and TclpExitThread to prevent a race for
-	joinable threads.
-
-	* mac/tclMacThrd.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform
-	independent emulation layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c below). Due
-	to the cooperative nature of threading on this platform the race
-	mentioned above is not present.
-
-	* generic/tclThreadJoin.c: New file. Contains a platform independent
-	emulation layer helping in the implementation of joinable threads for
-	the win and mac platforms.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Added declarations for TclJoinThread,
-	TclRememberJoinableThread and TclSignalExitThread. These procedures
-	define the API of the emulation layer for joinable threads (see
-	generic/tclThreadJoin.c above).
-
-	* win/Makefile.in:
-	* win/makefile.vc: Added generic/tclTheadJoin.o to the rules.
-
-	* mac/: I don't know to which file generic/tclTheadJoin.o has to be
-	added to so that it compiles. Sorry.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c: #ifdef'd the thread-local list of file channels
-	as it prevents us from transfering channels. To restore this we may
-	need an extended interface to drivers in the future. Target:
-	9.0. Found while testing the new transfer of channels. The information
-	in this list for a channel was left behind and then crashed the system
-	during finalization.
-
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c: Added -joinable flag to 'testthread
-	create'. Added subcommand 'testthread join'.
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3: Added documentation for Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,
-	Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
-	Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers.
-
-	* doc/Thread.3: Added documentation for Tcl_JoinThread.

-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: Fixed some function headers.
-
-	* unix/mkLinks: Regen'd with new mkLinks.tcl.
-
-	* unix/mkLinks.tcl: Fixed indentation, made link setup more
-	intelligent (only do one existence test per man page, instead of one
-	per function).
-
-	* doc/library.n: Fixed .SH NAME macro to include each function
-	documented on the page, so that mkLinks will know about the functions
-	listed there, and so that the Windows help file index will get set up
-	correctly [Bug: 1898, 5273].

-
-	These changes make some error handling marginally better for Mac
-	sockets. It is still somewhat flakey, however.
-
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (TcpClose): Add timeouts to the close - these don't
-	seem to be honored, however. Use a separate PB for the release, since
-	an async connect socket will still be using the original buffer. Make
-	sure TCPRelease returns noErr before freeing the recvBuff. If the call

-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (CreateSocket): Add timeouts to the async create.
-	These don't seem to trigger, however. Sigh...
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (WaitForSocketEvent): If an TCP_ASYNC_CONNECT
-	socket errors out, then return EWOULDBLOCK & error out.

-2000-04-21  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a newly introduced bug where if
-	there's a -command callback and something goes wrong, geturl threw an
-	exception, called the callback, and unset the token. I changed it so
-	that it will not call the callback when throwing an exception (so the
-	caller only finds out about a given error from one place).  Also,
-	fixed http::ncode so that it actually gives you back the http return
-	code (i.e. 200, 404, etc.) instead of the first digit of the version
-	of HTTP being used (i.e. 1).
-
-2000-04-21  Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: More thrashing with the "server closes
-	without reading post data" scenario. Reverted to the previous fileevent
-	configuratiuon, which seems to work better with small amounts of post
-	data.
-
-2000-04-20  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclAlloc.c: wrapped caddr_t define to not be done on Unix

-
-	* library/dde1.1/pkgIndex.tcl:

-
-2000-04-09  Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
-
-	* lib/httpd2.1/http.tcl: Worked on the "server closes before reading
-	post data" case, which unfortunately causes different error cases on
-	Solaris, which can read the reply, and Linux and Windows, which cannot
-	read anything. This is all in the loop-back case - client and server
-	on the same host. Also unified the error handling so the "ioerror"
-	status goes away and errors are reflected in a more uniform way.
-	Updated the man page to document the behavior.
-
-2000-04-09  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>

-	* tests/reg.test (matchexpected): corrected tests to use tcltest
-	constraint types to skip certain tests.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_SetCommandInfo): comment fix
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread): moved TCL_THREADS ifdef
-	inside of func as it is declared for non-threads builds as well. In
-	the non-threads case, it always returns TCL_ERROR (couldn't create
-	thread).
-
-2000-04-08  Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* Overall change: Definition of a public API for the creation of
-	new threads.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (line 1802f): Removed the definition of
-	'TclpThreadCreate'. (line 793f) Removed the definition of
-	'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (line 388f): Readded the definition of
-	'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'. Added Win32 stuff send in by David Graveraux
-	<davygrvy@bigfoot.com> to that too (__stdcall, ...). Added macros for
-	the default stacksize and allowed flags.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls (line 1356f): Added definition of
-	'Tcl_CreateThread', slot 393 of the stub table. Two new arguments in
-	the public API, for stacksize and flags.
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:
-	* mac/tclMacThrd.c: Renamed TclpThreadCreate to Tcl_CreateThread,
-	added handling of the stacksize. Flags are currently ignored.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: See above, but handles joinable flag. Ignores
-	the specified stacksize if the macro HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE is
-	not defined.
-
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c (line 363): See below.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (line 210): Adapted to the changes above. Uses
-	default stacksize and no flags now.
-
-	* unic/tcl.m4 (line 382f): Added a check for
-	'pthread_attr_setstacksize' to detect platforms not implementing this
-	feature of pthreads. If it is implemented, configure will define the
-	macro HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE (See unix/tclUnixThrd.c too).
-
-	* doc/Thread.3: Added Tcl_CreateThread and its arguments to the list
-	of described functions. Removed stuff about not providing a public
-	C-API for thread-creation.
-
-2000-04-07  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* doc/binary.n: clarified docs on sign extension in binary scan [Bug:

-
-	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl (initConstraints): removed win32s
-	references (no longer supported)
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test: marked test 8.1 knownBug because it is dangerous on
-	poorly configured systems [Bug: 3881] and added 8.2 to keep essence of
-	8.1 tested.
-
-2000-04-05  Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_UnstackChannel, line 1831): Forcing interest
-	mask to the correct value after an unstack and re-initialization of

-
-2000-03-29  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: For the -querychannel option, fconfigure
-	the socket to be binary so that we don't translate anything while
-	reading the data. This is because we determine the content length of
-	the data on the channel by using seek (to the end of the file) and
-	tell on the file handle, and we need the content-length to match the
-	amount of data actually sent, and translation can affect the number of
-	bytes posted.
-
-2000-04-03  Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	* Overall change: Definition of public API's for the finalization of
-	conditions and mutexes. [Bug: 4199].
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Removed definitions of TclFinalizeMutex and

-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c: Changed usages of TclFinalizeCondition to
-	Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added empty macros for Tcl_MutexFinalize and
-	Tcl_ConditionFinalize, to be used when the core is compiled without
-	threads.
-
-	* doc/Thread.3:	Added description the new API's.

-
-2000-03-31  Eric Melski  <ericm@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclGet.c (Tcl_GetDouble): Added additional conditions to
-	error test (previously only errno was checked, but the return value of
-	strtod() should be checked as well). [Bug: 4118]
-
-	* tests/exec.test: Added test for proper conversion of UTF data when
-	used with "<< $dataWithUTF" on exec's.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): Added
-	Tcl_UtfToExternalDString call, so that if there is UTF content in the
-	string it will be properly converted to the system encoding before
-	being written [Bug: 4030].
-	(TclpCreateTempFile): Added a check on the return value of tmpnam;
-	some systems (Linux, for example) will start to return NULL after
-	tmpnam has been called TMP_MAX times; not checking for this can have
-	bad results (overwriting temp files, core dumps, etc.)

-
-2000-03-29  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCleanupByteCode): made ByteCode cleanup
-	more aware of TCL_BYTECODE_PRECOMPILED flagged structs (gen'd by
-	tbcload), to correctly clean them up.
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): moved check for empty format
-	earlier, commented 0 result return value
-
-2000-03-29  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Removed an unnecessary fileevent statement
-	from the error processing part of the Write method. Also, fixed two
-	potential memory leaks in wait and reset, in which the state array
-	wasn't being unset before throwing an exception. Prior to this
-	version, Brent checked in a fix to catch a fileevent statement that
-	was sometimes causing a stack trace when geturl was called with
-	-timeout. I believe Brent's fix is necessary because TLS closes bad
-	sockets for secure connections, and the fileevent was trying to act on
-	a socket that no longer existed.
-
-2000-03-27  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/httpd: removed unnecessary 'puts stderr "Post Dispatch"'
-
-	* tests/namespace.test:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Export): added a uniq'ing test to the
-	export list so only one instance of each export pattern would exist in
-	the list.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): optimized case for the
-	empty string in ==/!= comparisons
-
-2000-03-27  Eric Melski  <ericm@scriptics.com>

-
-2000-03-22  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug where string query data that
-	was bigger than queryblocksize would get duplicate characters at block
-	boundaries.
-
-2000-03-22  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed bug 4463, where we were getting a
-	stack trace if we tried to publish a project to a good host but a port
-	where there was no server listening.  It turned out the problem was a
-	stray fileevent that needed to be cleared.  Also, fixed a bug where
-	http::code could stack trace if called on a bad token (one which
-	didn't represent a successful geturl) by adding an http element to the
-	state array in geturl.
-
-2000-03-21  Eric Melski  <ericm@scriptics.com>
-
-	* tests/clock.test: Modified some tests that were not robust with
-	respect to the time zone in which they were run and were thus failing.
-
-	* doc/clock.n: Clarified meaning of -gmt with respect to -base when
-	used with [clock scan] (-gmt does not affect the interpretation of
-	-base).
-
-2000-03-19  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: geturl used to throw an exception when the
-	connection failed; I accidentally returned a token with the error
-	info, breaking backwards compatibility. I changed it back to throwing
-	an exception, but unsetting the state array first (thus still
-	eliminating the original memory leak problem).
-
-2000-03-19  Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -querychannel option and altered
-	some of Brent's modifications to allow asynchronous posts (via
-	-command). Also modified -queryprogress so that it calls the query
-	callback as <callback> <token> <total size> <current size> to be
-	consistent with -progress. Added -queryblocksize option with default
-	8192 bytes for post blocksize. Fixed a bunch of potential memory leaks
-	for the case when geturl receives bad args or can't open a socket,
-	etc. Overall, the package really rocks now.
-
-	* doc/http.n: Added -queryblocksize, -querychannel, and
-	-queryprogress. Also, changed the description of -blocksize, which
-	states that the -progress callback will be called for each block, to
-	now qualify that with an "if -progress is specified".
-
-	* tests/http.test: Added a querychannel test for synchronous and
-	asynchronous posts, altered the queryprogress test such that the
-	callback conforms to the -progress format. Also, had to use the
-	-queryblocksize option to do the post 16K at a time to match Brent's
-	expected results (and to test that -queryblocksize works).
-
-2000-03-15  Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -queryprogress callback to
-	http::geturl and also changed it so that writing the post data is
-	event driven if the queryprogress callback or a timeout is given.
-	This allows a timeout to occur when writing lots of post data. The
-	queryprogress callback is called after each block of query data is
-	posted. It has the same signature as the -progress callback.
-
-2000-03-06  Eric Melski  <ericm@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/package.tcl: Applied patch from Bug: 2570; rather than
-	setting geometry of slave interp to 0x0 when Tk was loaded, it now
-	does "wm withdraw .". Both remove the main window from the display,
-	but the former caused some internal structures to get initialized to
-	zero, which caused crashes with some extensions.
-
-2000-03-02  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
-	* library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): extended to allow recognizes
-	changes in the auto_path while sourcing in other pkgIndex.tcl files
-
-	* doc/FindExec.3: fixed doc for declaration of Tcl_FindExecutable
-	[Bug: 4275]
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): Applied patch from

-	regexp with custom parser). [Bug: 2867]
-
-	* win/README.binary: change mailing lists from @consortium.org to
-	@scriptics.com [Bug: 4173]

-
-	* tests/clock.test: Added test for ISO bases < 100000
-
-	* generic/tclDate.c: (generated on Solaris)
-	* generic/tclGetDate.y: Changed condition for deciding if a number is
-	an ISO 8601 base from number >= 100000 to numberOfDigits >= 6.
-	Previously it would fail to recognize 000000 as an ISO base.

-
-	* library/init.tcl: auto_load was using [info commands $name] to

-
-	Up-port to 8.4 of mac code changes for 8.3.3 & various new changes for
-	8.4, some already backported to 8.3.4. [Patch 435658]
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c: added #include to fix missing prototype errors
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: MAC_TCL: addition of ConditionalMacros.h and use of
-	DLLIMPORT and DLLEXPORT like on other platforms. ( => no longer need
-	the .exp files and can remove use of #pragma export that never worked
-	well)
-	removed line continuation in #if clause as this breaks the mac
-	resource compiler (note that *.r files include tcl.h)
-
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c: fixed bug in permission checking code
-
-	* mac/tclMacLoad.c: corrected utf-8 handling, comparison of package
-	names to code fragment names changed to only match on the length of
-	package name, this allows for fragment names with version numbers
-	appended.
-
-	* mac/tclMacInt.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* mac/tclMacTime.c:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: moved declaration of TclpGetGMTOffset()
-
-	* mac/tclMacShLib.exp:
-	* mac/tclMacOSA.exp:
-	* mac/tclMacMSLPrefix.h: removed files
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: removed reference to .exp files
-
-	* mac/MW_TclBuildLibHeader.h:
-	* mac/MW_TclBuildLibHeader.pch:
-	* mac/MW_TclHeaderCommon.h:
-	* mac/MW_TclStaticHeader.h:
-	* mac/MW_TclStaticHeader.pch: new precompiled header files
-
-	* mac/MW_TclAppleScriptHeader.pch:
-	* mac/MW_TclHeader.pch:
-	* mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch:
-	* mac/tclMacCommonPch.h: revised precompiled header handling: now
-	include a common header file 'MW_TclHeaderCommon.h' from all .pch
-	files, the .pch files themselves now only setup #defines (e.g.
-	BUILD_tcl, STATIC_BUILD, TCL_DEBUG, TCL_THREADS) like in makefiles on
-	other platforms.
-
-	* mac/tclMac.h:
-	* mac/tclMacPort.h:
-	* mac/tclMacInt.h: use of BUILD_tcl and TCL_STORAGE_CLASS like on other
-	platforms, standardize #include'd files to what's done on other
-	platforms, removed use of #pragma export.
-
-	* mac/tcltkMacBuildSupport.sea.hqx: new archive of mac build support
-	files & suggested build environment directory hierarchy:
-	'Building MacTclTk' & 'CW Pro6 changes' readme's.
-	projects for MoreFiles 1.5.2 static & shared libraries.
-	project & sources for 'pseudoCarbonSupport', see below.
-	included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
-
-	* mac/tclMacProjects.sea.hqx: updated mac build project files:
-	build support for CodeWarrior Pro6, UnivIntf 3.4 & shared runtime
-	libraries: the MSL libraries and MoreFiles are no longer compiled into
-	Tcl.shlb, all non-static binaries now use the Pro6 shared runtime
-	libraries and MoreFiles.shlb.  These shlbs are merged into the standard
-	Wish and TclShell, but 3rd party applications linking with Tcl.shlb or
-	Tk.shlb need to setup access to them.  (see the "(sh-ppc)" targets
-	for how to do this.)
-	included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
-	use compat/strtod.c instead of MSL's strtod()
-	use WASTE versions of MSL for tcl test target to avoid text buffer
-	cutoff at 32k.
-	Merging the full MSL.shlb and the other shlbs into Wish & TclShell
-	makes them a bit larger than before, use unmerged binaries to avoid
-	copying the shared code with every application, e.g. when deploying
-	numerous Wish based droplets.
-	Note that using CW Pro5 to compile extensions is in principle still
-	possible, but need to link with Pro6 runtime libraries.
-	Tclapplescript now loads and runs on CFM68k.
-	Highly experimental "pseudoCarbon" support for Tcl only on OS 8/9:
-	binaries in "Build:(Carbon):" link against CarbonLib instead of
-	InterfaceLib, however the actual code has not been carbonized! i.e. it
-	will not run on OSX and may not even run properly with CarbonLib.
-	This should in principle allow you to build & test OS9 CFM Carbon
-	binaries that need to link with Tcl.shlb. On OSX you can use the
-	native Tcl.framework, but you have to build a MachO binary as there
-	is no CFM glue lib for Tcl.framework.
-	the library pseudoCarbonSupport.shlb manually loads the symbols from
-	InterfaceLib that are not in CarbonLib but are needed by the
-	uncarbonized code in Tcl.shlb and TclShell.
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c: MAC_TCL: workaround for broken/non-standard isatty
-	on MW Pro6, #include <unistd.h> instead of defining isatty
-
-	* mac/tclMacPort.h: MW Pro6 changes for MSL fcntl.h, stat.h & isatty
-
-	* mac/tclMacAppInit.c: add EXTERN to InstallConsole to enable DLL
-	export via the TCL_STORAGE_CLASS mechanism.
-
-	* mac/tclMacFCmd.c: fix for FSpDirectoryCopy API change
-
-	* mac/tclMacLibrary.c: emit compile time error when
-	TCL_REGISTER_LIBRARY and USE_TCL_STUBS are both defined at the same
-	time in an extension, this use is not currently supported and will
-	result in a crash when dynamically loading the extension.
-
-	* mac/tclMacApplication.r:
-	* mac/tclMacLibrary.r:
-	* mac/tclMacOSA.r:
-	* mac/tclMacResource.r: fixed obsolete copyrights/dates in version
-	strings; updated version strings to standard usage; added support for
-	'(Support Libraries)' subfolder for shared runtime libraries in
-	unmerged binaries; commented out demo setting of "Tcl Environment
-	Variables"; reorganized resources among these files to avoid multiple
-	copies in applications and shared libraries, the script libraries are
-	now no longer duplicated in Tclsh but are only included in the
-	resources of Tcl.shlb.
-
-	* mac/tclMacChan.c:
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c: cast for *BlockMode
-
-	* mac/tclMacUtil.c:
-	* mac/tclMacMath.h: removed obsolete hypot() definition
-
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* mac/tclMacNotify.c:
-	* mac/tclMacOSA.c:
-	* mac/tclMacUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c: renamed routines conflicting with standard
-	Apple or MoreFiles headers (at compile or link time):
-	GetGlobalMouse         -> GetGlobalMouseTcl
-	FSpGetDirectoryID      -> FSpGetDirectoryIDTcl
-	FSpOpenResFileCompat   -> FSpOpenResFileCompatTcl
-	FSpCreateResFileCompat -> FSpCreateResFileCompatTcl
-	NewThread              -> NewTestThread
-	the renamed MoreFiles *Tcl routines are just wrappers calling into the
-	MoreFiles DLL.
-
-	* mac/tclMacCommonPch.h:
-	* mac/tclMacThrd.c:
-	* mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed OLDROUTINENAMES define, renamed obsolete
-	apple API names to modern equivalents; UH3.4 support: added #include
-	<ControlDefinitions.h>, updated New*Proc() calls to New*UPP().
-
-	* mac/tclMacUnix.c: added missing (Tcl_Obj ***) cast to
-	Tcl_ListObjGetElements call
-
-	* mac/tclMacAlloc.c: modernized TclpSysAlloc() to use temporary memory
-	instead of system heap memory when available (MacOS >= 7.5 and
-	possibly earlier, use of system heap has been discouraged for a long
-	time and has many disadvantages, e.g. memory isn't paged out, and
-	errors can very easily bring the system down); fixed crashing bug in
-	TclpSysRealloc() and CleanUpExitProc() where memory was being accessed
-	after having been deallocated; fixed memory leak in (de)allocation
-	code (for every block ever allocated with TclpSysAlloc, a Ptr was
-	leaked), if temporary memory is available, don't track allocated
-	memory, instead use RecoverHandle() to get Handle from Ptr, otherwise
-	use doubly linked list to correctly track memory and free all
-	allocated memory; added new option for ConfigureMemory:
-	MEMORY_DONT_USE_TEMPMEM, disables use of temporary memory even when it
-	would be available, only necessary when writing e.g. a driver (using
-	tcl??); increased fraction of application heap reserved for OS
-	routines to 512K
-
-	* compat/strftime.c:
-	* mac/tclMacTime.c:
-	* mac/tclMacPort.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: timezone support for mac via TclpGetTZName()
-	like on windows, using an inverse timezone table adapted from
-	tclDate.c to map gmtoffset in seconds gotten from the MacOS APIs to a
-	timezone string, as there is no good way to get this info from MacOS.
-	I had to make up some unusual timezones and arbitrarily decide on the
-	most standard of the multiple choices available for every timezone.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: workaround for a MSL bug/misfeature: for very
-	small floats, MSL can return errno ERANGE but a non-zero value (<
-	LDBL_MIN however)
-
-	* mac/tclMacAppInit.c: support for WASTE text library using temporary
-	memory, setting has no effect if WASTE is not used.
-
-	* mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed duplicate code from generic/tclPanic.c
-	and added that file to projects instead.
-
-	* tests/all.tcl: set tcltest::singleProcess 1 as multiple processes
-	are not available on the mac.
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: access time not available on the mac, skip the
-	atime touch test
-

-
-	* doc/tclvars.n: doc bug, env(PWD) should be env(HOME) [Bug 463834]
-
-2001-11-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-8.8): Corrected test for Bug 219393.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken,CallCommandTraces):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ>c (Tcl_UntraceCommand):  Added Tcl_Preserve and
-	Tcl_Release calls to prevent deletion of CommandTrace structures until
-	all callers are done using them, preventing memory corruption. [Bug
-	453805]

-	Changed all uses of TclpGetTime to Tcl_GetTime. Added Tcl_GetTime to
-	the Stubs table and the library documentation. Added a TclpGetTime in
-	tclUtil.c for backward compatibility of extensions. [Patch 483500,
-	TIP#73]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TimeObjCmd): Corrected an error in the

-2001-11-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: moving all code relative to bytecodes from
-	tclBasic.c to tclExecute.c - the functions RecordTracebackInfo and
-	Tcl_ExprObj went to tclExecute.c, and new interface function was
-	defined (TclCompEvalObj).
-	The final objective of this sequence of moves is to provide a clean,
-	clear-cut interface between Tcl's core and the compiler/engine
-	subsystem.
-
-2001-11-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: factoring out of common code in tclBasic.c
-	(new function TclInterpReady defined: it resets the interp's result,
-	then checks that it hasn't been deleted and that the nesting level is
-	acceptable). Passed the responsibility of calling it to the *callers*
-	of TclEvalObjvInternal.
-
-2001-11-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: a better variant of the previous-to-last
-	commit (restoring numLevels computations). The managing of the levels
-	now has to be done by the *callers* of TclEvalObjvInternal
-
-2001-11-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: missing variable declaration under

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:

-	* unix/Makefile.in: added EOL correction for Windows bat files to
-	dist target. [Bug 219409] (davygrvy)
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): update of patch from
-	2001-11-16 that uses the old Tcl encoding check mechanism as a
-	fallback to the original. Also added a TCL_DEFAULT_ENCODING #define
-	(defaults to iso8859-1). Tcl will first try setlocale and nl_langinfo,
-	and if that fails, guess based on certain LANG|LC_* env vars. [Patch
-	418645]

-	* doc/file.n:
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: improved speed of file normalization for

-	between NT/2000 and the older operating systems. Added test to ensure
-	normalization is correct.
-
-2001-11-19  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclParse.c: Code reorganisation. Moved all evaluation
-	functions from tclParse.c to tclBasic.c, so that now tclParse.c deals
-	exclusively with parsing and all evaluations are done by code in
-	tclBasic.c. The functions moved are: TclEvalObjvInternal,
-	Tcl_EvalObjv, Tcl_LogCommandInfo, Tcl_EvalTokensStandard,
-	Tcl_EvalTokens, Tcl_EvalEx, Tcl_Eval, Tcl_EvalObj and
-	Tcl_GlobalEvalObj.
-
-2001-11-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-8.8): Added adapted version of [Bug 219393]
-	as new test; the test won't reliably show up the old problem unless it
-	is being run under something like Purify, but something is better than
-	nothing...
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_TraceVar2, Tcl_UntraceVar2): Added missing
-	mask bits for trace result type and a check for a nonsense flag
-	combination.
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceVarProc): Added missing test for NULL when
-	deleting a trace that doesn't cause an error.
-
-	* doc/TraceVar.3: Added documentation for change due to TIP#68.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceVarInfo): Removed problematic errMsg field
-	from structure.
-	(TraceVarProc): Removed references to errMsg field and changed
-	handling of errors so that they returned a Tcl_Obj* containing the
-	error string. This minimizes the number of calls to the memory
-	management subsystem.
-	(TclTraceCommandObjCmd, TraceCommandProc): Removed references to
-	errMsg field which was never used in command traces in any case.
-	(Tcl_TraceObjCmd, TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Removed references to
-	errMsg field and made variable traces register with
-	TCL_TRACE_RESULT_OBJECT bit set.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (TCL_TRACE_RESULT_DYNAMIC,TCL_TRACE_RESULT_OBJECT):
-	New constants to define how to handle the strings returned from trace
-	callbacks [TIP#68]
-	* generic/tclVar.c (CallTraces, Tcl_GetVar2Ex, TclGetIndexedScalar,
-	(TclGetElementOfIndexedArray, Tcl_SetVar2Ex, TclSetIndexedScalar,
-	(TclSetElementOfIndexedArray, Tcl_UnsetVar2, Tcl_ArrayObjCmd,

-
-	* win/makefile.vc:

-	NMAKE under these remembers changed directories during commands. A new
-	tcltest feature from Peter Spjuth <peter.spjuth@space.se> to specify a

-	when not under NT with it's scrollback console. Then it replays it,

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Avoid adding libc to the LIBS variable
-	since it is not needed when linking with CC. If required when linking

-2001-11-08  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/rules.vc:

-	Everything else know is done.
-
-	* win/tcl.dsp(new):

-	We can't regenerate automatically since there may be no tclsh on the

-
-	Define TCL_INCLUDE_SPEC in tclConfig.sh. It should be included by

-
-	* win/rules.vc:
-	* win/makefile.vc: Dropped the NOMSVCRT macro and put it on the option
-	list instead. It makes more sense to me this way as NOMSVCRT=0 would
-	only be the valid setting. Fixed the dde and reg extension for
-	building static. Improved, but not perfected, the winhelp target.
-
-2001-11-07  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/README: Change minimum VC++ version to 5.X since 4.X is known

-	what URLs folks should use to download the supported version of Mingw.
-	* win/configure: Regen.

-2001-11-06  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Fixed [Bug 478856] reported by Stuart
-	Cassoff <stwo@users.sourceforge.net>. The bug caused loss of
-	fileevents when [read]ing less data from the channel than buffered.
-	Due to an empty input buffer the flag CHANNEL_NEED_MORE_DATA was set
-	but never reset, causing the I/O system to wait for more data instead
-	of using a timer to synthesize fileevents and to flush the pending
-	data out of the buffers.
-
-2001-11-06  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/rules.vc (new):
-	* win/makefile.vc:  Complete over/under rewrite to support numerous
-	build options all from the commandline itself without needing to edit
-	the makefile. Now requires vcvars32.bat to be run prior to running
-	nmake for bootstraping the environment. Fully doc'd usage for it is in
-	makefile.vc. Commentary welcome. Sticky points left are:
-
-	1) winhelp target shows errors in the converting script.
-	2) .rc scripts aren't getting the right #defines to build the correct
-	   "OriginalFilename" strings. (have patch, won't commit yet)
-	3) Naming convention with suffixes describing the buildtype are 'tsdx'
-	   which will need public acceptance. ie. tclsh84tsx.exe is a (t)
-	   threaded shell (s) statically linked to the core and (x) uses
-	   msvcrt instead of libcmt.

-
-	* doc/fileevent.n: Accepted [Patch 465279] adding an example to the
-	fileevent manpage. Minor modifications to get a better formatting.
-	Report and patch by David N. Welton <davidw@users.sourceforge.net>.
-
-	* The changes below fix [Bug 462317] where Expect tried to read more
-	than was in the buffers and then blocked in the OS call as its pty
-	channel driver provides no blockmodeproc through which the OS could be
-	notified of blocking-behaviour. Because of this the general I/O core
-	has to take more care than usual to preserve the semantics of
-	non-blocking channels.
-
-	The problem was reported by "Kevin O'Gorman" <kevin@kosmanor.com>.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadRaw): Do not read from the driver if the
-	channel is non-blocking and the fileevent causing the read was
-	generated by a timer. We do not know if there is data available from
-	the OS. Instead of going to the OS for more and potentially blocking
-	we simply signal EWOULDBLOCK to the higher levels to cause the system
-	to wait for true fileevents.
-	(GetInput): Same as before.
-	(ChannelTimerProc): Added set and clear of CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.h (CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV): New flag for channels. Is set
-	if a fileevent was generated by a timer, the channel is not blocking
-	and the driver did not provide a blockmodeproc. In that case the I/O
-	core has to be especially careful about going to the driver for more
-	data.

-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: changed winsock.h include to winsock2.h. Reverses
-	change from 2000-11-16, but is necessary for WIN64. Extensions should

-	detected at abnormal returns.
-
-2001-09-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/socket.n: Added documentation to mention what happens when a
-	server socket is created with port=0. Removed an old change bar, and
-	no new change bar because Tcl has always behaved this way as it is
-	really a poorly-documented standards-defined OS feature.
-
-	* tests/util.test (util-8.1): Test derived from code to detect the
-	problem, but the test always works in the C locale, so beware if you
-	are maintaining the code.
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclNeedSpace): Rewrote to be UTF-8 aware. [Bug
-	411825, but not that patch which would have added extra spaces if
-	there was a real non-ASCII space involved.]
-
-2001-09-18 Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2001-09-17  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: removed forced #define USE_TCLALLOC 1 for Windows.
-	This means the native system allocator will be used by default. This

-	is a properly stubbed function.
-
-2001-09-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>

-	duties but adheres to the standard return convention for Tcl
-	evaluations; the deprecated function could only return TCL_OK or
-	TCL_ERROR, which caused [Bug 219384] and [Bug 455151]. This patch

-2001-09-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tcl.m4: Invert the logic that checks for $GCC. Instead of
-	checking for "$GCC" = "no" we check for "$GCC" != "yes" or simply swap
-	the true and false blocks of code in an if statement. That way if GCC
-	is set to "" everything will still work. [Bug 460991]

-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Also added 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels' to the

-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjStat): Now added the call to
-	'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels' to this function. I don't know where my
-	head was last thursday (2001-09-06), but the call was actually added
-	to 'TclpObjChdir', i.e. the implementation of [cd]. Corrected this
-	now. Thanks to Vince Darley for spotting this.
-
-2001-09-10  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c:

-
-2001-09-09  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed Tcl_FSCopyFile fallback to channel
-	copying, since the channels will not have access to interpreters and
-	the channel copying currently requires an interp. Code which required
-	cross-platform copies always has interpreters, so that solves the
-	problem. Fixes bug in TclKit.
-
-2001-09-07  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-

-
-2001-09-07  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c (TclpThreadExit): Cast status argument to

-	prototype.
-
-2001-09-06  Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* All the changes below serve to fix bug [219148] which reports a 80x
-	performance hit for file I/O on Win* systems. On my system it was
-	closer to a 120x hit. Problem report by Uwe Traum <no email address
-	available>.
-
-	The fix goes like this: The obstacle is 'FlushFileBuffers', executed
-	whenever Tcl writes data to the OS, as Tcl has to wait for the disk to
-	complete I/O, and disks are slow. We remove that obstacle. This opens
-	another problem, [file size] reports back wrong numbers. So for [file
-	size] we add the call back in. As optimization we keep track of the
-	channels which were written to and flush only these.
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjStat): Added a call to
-	'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels'. This ensures that [file size] and related
-	commands report the correct size of a file even if Tcl has recently
-	written to it. Unixoid OS's always report the correct size even for
-	files with pending data, but Win* syssystem don't. They only report
-	what is actually on disk.
-
-	* win/tclWinInt.h: Added declaration of 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels',
-	making it available to other parts of the tcl core.
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (TclWinFlushDirtyChannels): New, internal,
-	procedure. Goes through the list of open file channels and forces the
-	OS to flush its file buffers for all which were written to since the
-	last call of this function. This is an expensive operation as Tcl has
-	to wait for the OS to complete actual writes to the disk.
-
-	(FileInfo): Added dirty flag required by the procedure above.
-
-	(FileOutputProc): Removed flushing of file buffers, setting the dirty
-	flag instead. This means that the previously incurred delays do not
-	happen anymore.
-
-	(TclWinOpenFileChannel): Added initialization of 'dirty' flag.
-
-2001-09-06  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/http.n: noted -binary, charset and coding state keys.
-	* tests/http.test:
-	* library/http/pkgIndex.tcl:
-	* library/http/http.tcl (geturl): correctly get charset parameter
-	and convert text according to specified encoding (if known). RFC
-	iso8859-1 is used by default. Also recognize Content-encoding to see
-	if we should do binary translation. Added a CYA -binary switch for the
-	cases that were missed. [Bugs 219211, 219399]
-
-	* tests/ioUtil.test: changed to make better use of constraints and
-	remove knownBug constraints that weren't valid.
-
-2001-09-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-3.2): Updated test to support newer

-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tclIOUtilc: added Tcl_FSMountsChanged so that a vfs can
-	inform the filesystem that the filesystem epoch must be changed (since
-	cached filesystems may now be incorrect). Fixes problem running tclvfs
-	extension.
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: if tests aren't in a native filesystem,
-	then don't use pipes to run them. [Bug 458741]

-
-	* generic/tcl.decls (479 generic):
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek,Tcl_Tell,Tcl_OutputBuffered): Added public

-
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:  Another small trim finalizing Borland
-	support.
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:  More Borland compatibility fixes. Changed EDQUOT
-	#define from 49 to 69. Borland had a clash as it was already using
-	this number. Upon advice from Helmut Giese, EDQUOT has been found in
-	other header files #defined as 69. [Patch 436116]
-
-	* win/.cvsignore:  A few more glob patterns added.

-
-2001-09-04  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:  Revisited _beginthreadex() stuff. Instead of
-	assuming a c-runtime implimentation of _beginthreadex normal, I
-	reversed the logic to not assume, and use when is by explicitly
-	needing to add runtimes that support it such as Borland.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:  Borland compatibility change so ClientData
-	was properly typed as a void* and TCHAR would not be defined twice.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:  Removed a small mistake from before. Changes to the
-	EXTERN macro for proper Borland compatibility will have to see a TIP.
-	What's this with the MS compiler:
-
-		__declspec(dllexport) int func (int a, int b);
-
-	will have to be this with Borland:
-
-		int __cdecl __export func (int a, int b);
-
-	The order of the attribute needs to be after the return type.

-	dangerous use of tmpnam, replaced with mkstemp. Documented all the
-	changes.
-	* generic/tclTest.c: made test vfs fully functional as a 'reporting
-	filesystem'.
-	* generic/tcl.stubs:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* doc/file.n:
-	* various platform-specific 'TclpLoadFile': fixed comments about
-	unload behaviour, and completed objectification of loading. Required
-	change to Tcl_Filesystem lookup table, so incompatible with 8.4a3, but
-	not older versions of Tcl. The change also allows 'link' and
-	'reporting' filesystems to function correctly when loading files.
-	Implementation of 'file delete -force' copes with case where cwd is
-	inside the directory. Moved overlooked Tcl_FSGetPathType from internal
-	to external API. Made sure filesystems which are registered and then
-	unregistered are only freed when all references to them are gone.
-	Documented changes.
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: when deleting directories recursively, make sure
-	permissions are ok. Together with the above, this fixes [Bug 219139]
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: differentiated test results for win2k versus
-	not. This fixes [Bug: 219239]
-	* tests/fCmd.test: added tests for 'file delete -force' where the cwd
-	is inside, and when permissions are inadequate.

-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:  Portability fix for Cygwin who's c-runtime,
-	not surprisingly, doesn't have the MSVCRT specific _beginthreadex /
-	_endthreadex pair. This might have to be revisited for proper Borland,
-	lcc32, Watcom and other support as well. [Patch 444255]
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:  Moved FinalizeConditionEvent() proto to within
-	the main #ifdef TCL_THREADS block to avoid mingw warning about it
-	being there but unused.
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:  Added -Zl (zee el) to tclStubLib.c compile line to
-	make sure the tclstub84.lib static library is built without requiring
-	a specific C-runtime library at link-time for the end-use developer.
-	It has been noted on c.l.t that this trips many first time users
-	trying to make extensions. [Patch 403533]
-
-2001-08-31  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added TclCompileListCmd header
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: added TclCompileListCmd compile proc
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileListCmd): function to compile the

-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): definition of INST_LIST
-	bytecode.
-
-	* doc/StringObj.3: added words of warning to use Tcl_ResetResult with
-	the Tcl_Append* functions.
-
-	* tests/compile.test: added compile-11.* interp result checks
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): added Tcl_ResetResult before
-	Tcl_AppendStringsToObj to prevent shared object crash when called from
-	bcc instruction. The Tcl_Append* calls that append to the result
-	object that are invoked by bcc insts must remember to call
-	Tcl_ResetResult because the bcc doesn't do this for us. [Bug 456892]

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: allow cached fully-qualified command names to
-	be usable from different namespaces within the same interpreter
-	without forcing a new lookup. This speeds up scripts that pass command
-	names in variables ("this" in some OO packages). [Patch 456668]
-
-2001-08-30 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Further fs updates. After examining the most common Tcl extensions
-	(TclX, BLT, Tk, TclPro, Mktclapp), it has been determined that only
-	TclpGetCwd and the Access/Stat/Open insert/delete hooks of the
-	internal fs functions are ever used. The remaining functions from
-	Tcl's internal interfaces have therefore been removed, since Tcl now
-	exports a more suitable public API (Tcl_FS...)
-
-	* generic/tclInt.stubs:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: updated for removed internal functions. Some new
-	internal functions have been put in tclInt.h (and not exported in the
-	stub table because good public equivalents exist).
-	* generic/tclTest.c: some test functions used the internal private
-	APIs. These tests have been retained, but modified to use public APIs.
-	Also objectified the internal filesystem tests.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: removed TclpStat, TclpAccess and refactored code
-	to use NativeAccess, NativeStat. This should speed up stat, access and
-	glob commands.
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c: removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete File/Directory
-	string-based procedures which aren't used any more. Improved
-	efficiency of some other procedures. Ensure that filename conversions
-	with a NULL interp do not crash Tcl.
-	* mac/tclMacFCmd.c: wrapped long lines and cleaned up
-	TclpObjNormalizePath, removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete
-	File/Directory string-based procedures which aren't used any more.
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c: removed obsolete TclpStat, TclpAccess, TclpChdir,
-	etc.
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: removed use of TclpAccess, removed all
-	TclpCopy/Rename/Delete File/Directory string-based procedures which
-	aren't used any more.
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: removed obsolete TclpStat, TclpAccess,
-	TclpChdir, etc.
-	* tcl(Unix|Mac|Win)Chan.c: objectified TclpOpenFileChannel.
-	* various 'load' implementations all objectified.
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: removed redundant code.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed TclStat, TclAccess, TclpListVolumes.
-	Fix to MatchInDirectory at the root of a volume. Also improved some
-	documentation, and improved default path joining behaviour for virtual
-	filesystems, especially regarding '~'.
-	* tests/fileName.test: added tests to check for bugs fixed above.
-	* doc/FileName.3: improved documentation
-

-
-	* generic/tclAsync.c:
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Improper cleanup of asyncMutex in tclAsync.c
-	repaired. TclFinalizeSynchronization() was trying to remove a
-	registered mutex that was dumped earlier when the TSD it was stored in
-	was cleared. This was only surfacing on *nix. Windows was being masked
-	by mutexes not actually being returned to the system! That was
-	repaired in a previous patch. Needed to add a private
-	TclFinalizeAsync() to tclAsync.c and called from Tcl_FinalizeThread().
-	Pheww.. Is this done yet? [Bug 414419] requested by Rob Ratcliff

-	455642]
-
-2001-08-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tests/stringComp.test: added string-1.3
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): changed to return
-	TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE instead of TCL_ERROR when compiling and an
-	unknown string method is called. This is necessary as the string
-	command may be never called, or not until 'string' is redefined.

-
-2001-08-23  Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed [Bug 432499]. Part of the
-	code used the non-absolute path to the executable to determine
-	quoting. This failed if the absolute path contained spaces, but the
-	application name itself not. This bug caused no trouble on Win NT 5,
-	but does for other variants in the Win* family. Report and fix due to

-2001-08-23 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Variety of small filesystem and vfs issues fixed or improved. The new
-	fs code allows many new opportunities for efficiency improvements
-	through the objectified API. The main changes integrated here are such
-	efficiency improvements. Some limitations of the original
-	implementation have also now been lifted. Meanwhile a variety of fs
-	bugs (some old, some new) have also been fixed.
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: Made Tcl_FSSplitPath more efficient, and
-	removed some static string-based procedures which are no longer used.
-	Much more objectification. Tcl_FSJoinPath is now very efficient and
-	more aware of virtual filesystems. Clarified where the Mac-specific
-	code attempts to interpret Unix-style paths. Modified TclDoGlob to use
-	lstat not access to fix [Bug 434876] (L. Virden)
-
-	* tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)FCmd.c:
-	* tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)File.c: replaced TclpListVolumes with
-	TclpObjListVolumes with different signature, updated code due to more
-	efficient signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath. Used cached native
-	paths where possible to improve efficiency -- this was completed on
-	MacOS, but on Unix and Win the traversal functions make the task much
-	more complex, so there are still some improvements possible there.
-	Removed unused TclpNormalizePath which had been left in tclWinFCmd.c.
-	Objectified all 'file attributes' functions. Fixed the new [Bug
-	451571, Bruce Stephens] which is most obvious on Unix, but could occur
-	on MacOS or Windows. This bug actually existed in Tcl 8.3.x but was
-	only made obvious by the recent filesystem overhaul when the code was
-	exercised more heavily.
-	* tests/fileName.test: Three new tests to exercise the above bug, and
-	make sure it is fixed correctly.
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: avoid panic in glob when a link doesn't point
-	anywhere. It would probably be good to define exactly what Tcl should
-	do in circumstances like these, and make sure mac/win/unix all behave
-	accordingly. [Bug 417111] (Hemang Lavana). Also fixed
-	misleading/obsolete comment in the code.
-	* generic/tcl.stubs: changed signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath and
-	added Tcl_FSGetTranslatedStringPath.
-	These changes allow further optimisations in the FS code.
-	* generic/tcl.h: changed signature of Tcl_FSListVolumes so that it
-	doesn't require a Tcl interpreter plus result. Renamed Tcl_FSReadLink
-	to Tcl_FSLink with additional argument so we can support making links
-	in the future. [Patch: 450340]
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added declaration for TclpObjListVolumes.
-	Objectified internal call signatures for 'file attributes' functions,
-	and added an internal objectified get path type function.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: added the moved function TclpListVolumes which
-	calls platform specific code (needed for backwards compatibility), and
-	improved efficiency of parts of the FS (particularly file
-	normalization). Much less copying and memory allocation is required
-	now. added new GetPathType so that changes in 'file volumes' can
-	actually affect files' types, and objectified more code. Made current
-	code work with test suite artificially changing current platform.
-	Added 'static' keywords where required.
-	* generic/tclIO.c:
-	* generic/tclTest.c: Added 'static' keywords, fixing [Bug 453872] (Bob
-	Techentin)
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: file command implementation updated for API
-	changes, removed unnecessary special-case SplitPath static function,
-	since it no longer helps prevent code duplication. Moved setting of
-	interpreter result to each individual location that actually required
-	it, to avoid very large code separation between reading and setting
-	the result.
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: updated documentation for the new or changed APIs,
-	and clarified some issues.
-	* doc/SplitPath.3: added pointer to newer APIs in FileSystem.3
-	* doc/filename.n: clarified current implementation of tilde support on
-	Mac/Win.  [Bug 453514] (Sergey Kuzmin)
-	* doc/glob.n: improved documentation for '-directory' and '-path'
-	options.
-
-	There are now many private, obsolete, platform-specific 'Tclp'
-	string-based filesystem APIs which could be removed. We should check
-	whether any of these are used by extensions and, at least in Tcl 9,
-	remove them.
-
-	The above changes signify a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** with
-	8.4a3, since signatures of two functions in the new API have changed,
-	but not with older versions of Tcl.

-
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (FormatNumber): Extract a long from the object

-	which is dangerous. [Patch 442636] (lim)
-	The use of tmpnam in TclpTempFileName must still be changed.
-
-	* tests/http.test (http-4.14): fixed variable error return.

-2001-08-03  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/configure: regenerated
-	* win/tcl.m4: fixed DLLSUFFIX definition to always be ${DBGX}.dll.
-	This is necessary for TEA compliant builds that build shared against a
-	static-built Tcl.
-	* win/Makefile.in ($(TCLSH)): added $(TCL_STUB_LIB_FILE) to build
-	target, otherwise it wouldn't get generated in a static build.

-2001-08-06  Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Applied patch from [Bug 442665]
-	to fix the bug reported by it. The function can corrupt a freed object
-	if it is called with objc == 3. This is because it retrieves resultPtr
-	and does not increment its reference count, but then calls
-	Tcl_ObjSetVar2, which causes the retrieved resultPtr object to be
-	released.

-2001-08-06  Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tclsh.1: Added note that the tclsh program is frequently

-
-2001-08-01  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: minor casts to eliminate warnings. (lim)

-	exist to skip in a proper tcltest manner. [Bug 442663]

-	the user.
-
-2001-07-17  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpReadlink): Add Cygwin specific definition for

-	links when build with Cygwin.
-
-2001-07-17  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: Add Cygwin specific defines for environ and
-	timezone variables.
-
-2001-07-17  Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (GetInput): Fixed [Bug 427196]. Memory was
-	overwritten because a buffer was used after a change of the requested
-	buffersize together with that requested buffersize and not its actual
-	size, which was smaller. Note that the continous reuse of the smaller
-	buffer negatively impacts performance. The system never allocates a
-	buffer with the newly requested bigger buffersize.
-
-2001-07-16  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Define __WIN32__ when __CYGWIN__ or __MINGW32__ is
-	defined.
-	* generic/tclAlloc.c: Define caddr_t when compiling with VC++ or
-	mingw. This type is already defined when compiling with Cygwin.

-	* win/tclWinPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c:
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:
-	Remove unnecessary #includes of dos.h, direct.h, and tchar.h. This

-	under Cygwin.
-
-2001-07-16  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc): constrained the mutex lock to
-	just the TerminateThread call and waiting for termination. (jsmith)
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Removed extra copy of the SCAN_* macros
-	#defined in generic/tclScan.c. [Bug 441230] (porter)
-
-2001-07-12  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.8): Added extra constraint,
-	notInstalledInTmp, to stop this test from damaging installations in
-	/tmp; not much fun to have to reinstall the Tcl library every time you
-	run the test suite!
-
-	* tests/subst.test (subst-10.*): Updated tests to check new behaviour
-	for 'break' in command substitutions.
-	(subst-1.2,subst-7.1): Error messages changed.
-	* doc/SubstObj.3: New file, to document Tcl_SubstObj.
-	* doc/subst.n: Improved and updated documentation for 'subst' to help
-	support the changed behaviour.
-	* generic/tcl.decls (generic-437): Declaration for Tcl_SubstObj
-	* generic/tcl.h (TCL_SUBST_*): Added flags for Tcl_SubstObj.
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SubstObj,Tcl_SubstObjCmd): Divided into two
-	parts to allow people to access the innards of 'subst' and changed the
-	behaviour when command substitutions do a 'break' to be different from
-	'continue'. Also now works with objects, which allows for some nifty
-	optimisations with variable substitutions and a slight improvement
-	with command substitutions. [TIP#36]
-
-2001-07-10  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Add AR variable for use in STLIB_LD.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Use STLIB_LD when defining MAKE_LIB and
-	MAKE_STUB_LIB. Subst RANLIB and AR.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Add doc comment about STLIB_LD
-	command. Check ${AR} env var when setting STLIB_LD and delay
-	evaluation until make time.
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Delay evaluation of ${AR} in STLIB_LD
-	and add flags to better match the Unix implementation. Don't bother
-	defining AR when using VC++ since it is not used.
-
-2001-07-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Pass -e _WinMain@16 in addition to
-	the -mwindows flag to work around a problem with ld when it
-	incorrectly use main() as the executable entry point when both
-	WinMain() and main() are available.
-
-2001-07-06  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: Added leading zero to file modes to work around
-	fault in HPUX strtol() which ignores the base parameter. [Bug 438808]
-
-2001-07-05  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Subst DEPARG directly instead of relying on a
-	variable. This will make Cygwin builds faster since an extra exec will
-	be avoided.
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Subst DEPARG.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Move AC_MSG_CHECKING after the
-	AC_CHECK_PROG so that status messages do not get mixed together. Set
-	DEPARG based on the results of the cygpath check so that we avoid
-	using an extra exec when it is not needed. Use ac_cv_cygwin status
-	flag instead of looking at the output of gcc -v, which works in the
-	case where -mno-cygwin is set in the CFLAGS.
-
-2001-07-04  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* README:

-	* win/Makefile.in: Remove PATHTYPE variable.
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Don't subst PATHTYPE.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Remove PATHTYPE variable. Set CYGPATH
-	to "cygpath -w" if the cygpath executable is found on the path. This
-	approach works for native Cygwin builds and cross compiles.
-
-2001-07-03  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tests/var.test:
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_VariableObjCmd): added patch to check for
-	number of args. [Patch 426038]
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_GetVar2Ex): added ability to recognize
-	TCL_TRACE_READS flags to cause creation of part1 in TclLookupVar to
-	make sure newly created array will get read traces triggered
-	appropriately. This is called by Tcl_ObjGetVar2, Tcl_GetVar, and
-	Tcl_GetVar2.
-	(TclSetIndexedScalar, TclSetElementOfIndexedArray): added read trace
-	triggering for lappend case.
-	(Tcl_LappendObjCmd): pass TCL_TRACE_READS to Tcl_ObjGetVar2 to trigger
-	possible read traces for new arrays.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): added TCL_TRACE_READS
-	flag to INST_LAPPEND(_ARRAY)_STK case to trigger read traces for newly
-	created arrays. Removed unnecessary #ifdef for TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG in
-	INST_LOAD_SCALAR1 case.
-
-	* tests/append.test:
-	* tests/appendComp.test: added tests for read trace triggering for
-	append and lappend.

-
-2001-07-03  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Don't pass the v flag to ${AR} when
-	using gcc, verbose output is not needed.
-
-2001-07-03  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.8):  Changed test back to using
-	installation layout, adding comments explaining why the test writes to
-	the directories it does, and checks to avoid destroying other files in
-	/tmp.
-
-2001-07-03  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-1.2): Fixed faults reported in
-	[Bug 438070] - well, at least enough to work on Solaris - and added
-	comments that should make what is going on in the test clearer.
-
-2001-07-02  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.8):  Corrected test for all absolute

-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.9):
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):

-
-2001-06-28  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>

-2001-06-27  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c:
-	* unix/Makefile.in: added a -DPURIFY mode that makes Tcl_Obj's
-	allocated and free singularly (instead of in alloc in blocks and never
-	free) to allow checkers like Purify to operate better.
-
-	* library/encoding/koi8-u.enc: added koi8-u (Ukranian variant)
-	encoding.
-
-	* tests/subst.test:
-	* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UtfBackslash): Corrected backslash handling of

-
-2001-06-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* win/Makefile.in: Add `make shell` target. This target will set the
-	proper env vars before invoking tclsh from the build directory.
-
-2001-06-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Use : to separate VPATH entries. This works for
-	both Cygwin builds and cross builds, the VPSEP variable is simply
-	unneeded complexity.
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Don't subst VPSEP.

-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Set CFLAGS to "" if the user did not set CFLAGS

-
-2001-06-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): When building with gcc, don't attempt
-	to link with LD or support dllwrap. Simply require a recent version of
-	Cygwin gcc or Mingw gcc that supports -shared. When linking, use gcc
-	instead of ld since gcc automatically includes libs like -lmsvcrt.

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Set CFLAGS to @CFLAGS@ and @CFLAGS_DEFAULT@. Set
-	LDFLAGS to @LDFLAGS@ and @LDFLAGS_DEFAULT@. Add LDFLAGS_DEBUG and
-	LDFLAGS_OPTIMIZE to match the way CFLAGS_DEFAULT works. This will
-	support user set CFLAGS or LDFLAGS at configure time.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Don't set CFLAGS to CFLAGS_DEFAULT, instead
-	subst CFLAGS_DEFAULT into the Makefile. Add AC_SUBST for

-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS): Modify LDFLAGS_DEFAULT so that it
-	uses a Makefile variable just like CFLAGS_DEFAULT.
-	* win/Makefile.in: Set CFLAGS to @CFLAGS@ and @CFLAGS_DEFAULT@. Set

-	* win/configure:
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Don't set LDFLAGS_DEBUG to -g or

-
-2001-06-18  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-1.2,unixInit-2.8): Added test for code
-	described below, and fixed a couple of errors that caused problems
-	during testing; the code to determine the installedTcl constraint was
-	wrong, and test unixInit-2.8 assumed that /tmp/lib was free for use
-	and could be deleted, which clashed nastily with my installation and
-	made other tests fail unnecessarily!
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtyInit,TclpOpenFileChannel,
-	(Tcl_MakeFileChannel,TclpGetDefaultStdChannel): Alterations so that
-	the standard channels - stdin, stdout and stderr - have the correct
-	type and fconfigure options. This required making the initialisation
-	of serial lines a little more sophisticated to make the console behave
-	correctly in interactive mode... [Bug 219137 and duplicates]

-	209210]
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Split of both 'Tcl_ReadChars' and 'Tcl_WriteChars'
-	into a public error checking and an internal working part. The public
-	functions now use the new internal ones. The new functions are

-	lappend, lindex and llength. Refactored set and incr compile commands
-	to use new TclPushVarName function for handling the varname component
-	during compilation (also used by append and lappend). Changed string
-	compile command to compile toplevel code as well (when possible).
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: added new instruction enums
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: added debug info for new instructions
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): moved elemPtr to toplevel

-	[Bug 219201] as that fix only affected the runtime eval'ed "string"
-	(string compare is normally byte-compiled now). We may want to back
-	these out for speed in the future, noting the problems with \x00
-	comparisons in the docs.
-	* generic/tclInt.h: declarations for new compile commands.
-	* generic/tclVar.c: change TclGetIndexedScalar,
-	TclGetElementOfIndexedArray, TclSetElementOfIndexedArray and

-
-2001-05-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/console.n: Created. It seems very odd to me that the console
-	implementation is part of the Tcl distribution and not part of Tk, but
-	given the location of the source, the documentation must obviously
-	match up...
-
-2001-05-14  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
-	* tests/string.test (string-4.14): Negative string indices should not

-
-	* generic/tclParse.c:
-	* tests/namespace.test: Insure consistent behaviour of the [unknown]

-
-2001-05-02  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* All of the changes below belong to TIP #10 [Tcl I/O Enhancement:
-	Thread-Aware Channels]. See also [Patch 403358] at SF.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.h (struct ChannelState, line 236f): Extended the
-	structure with a new field of type 'Tcl_ThreadId' to hold the id of
-	the thread currently managing all channels with this state.
-
-	Note: This structure is shared by all channels in a stack of
-	transformations.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel, lines 1058-1065): Modified to
-	store the Id of the current thread in the 'ChannelState' of the new
-	channel.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SpliceChannel, lines 2265-2270): Modified in
-	the same manner as 'Tcl_CreateChannel' as the channel will be managed
-	by the current thread afterward.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c   (Tcl_GetChannelThread, lines 1478-1503):
-	* generic/tcl.decls (Tcl_GetChannelThread, lines 1504-1506): New API
-	function to retrieve the Id of the managing thread from a channel.
-	Implementation and declaration.
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd, lines 4520-4532): Added
-	subcommand 'mthread' to query a channel about its managing thread.
-
-2001-03-29  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@redhat.com>
-
-	* tests/interp.test: Print out warning when testinterpdelete command
-	is not defined. Add tests that checks to make sure a child interp
-	inherits the parent's cwd.
-
-2001-03-29  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@gimlet.activestate.com>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n: corrected incorrect macro usage.
-
-	* doc/lsort.n: corrected unbalanced nroff macros.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): prevent potential race
-	condition and security leak in tmp filename creation.
-	[Patch 402924] (max)
-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tcl.m4: corrected IRIX-5.x config to not use -n32.
-	[Patch 403626] (english)
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_ConditionWait): fixed handling of timeout
-	for threads (corrects excessive CPU usage issue for Tk on Unix in
-	threaded Tcl environment). [Bug 411603] (ruppert)
-
-2001-03-29  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/lsort.n: Added some notes that clarify the behaviour of
-	[lsort] as well as a whole bunch of examples.  [Bug 219202]
-
-2001-03-27  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@gimlet.activestate.com>
-
-	* doc/Alloc.3: corrected docs to note that Tcl_Attempt* return char
-	*'s, not ints. [Bug 411388]
-
-	* tests/regexp.test (regexp-19.1):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): fixed handling of nulls in
-	subspec value.
-
-2001-03-26  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h (Tcl_InitCustomHashTable):  Correction to patch
-	from 2001-01-18;  tclDecls.h was not generated using 'make genstubs'.
-
-2001-03-26  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* win/tclWinInt.h (tclWinTCharEncoding): Removed as now a static
-	variable in win/tclWin32Dll.c instead.
-
-2001-03-23  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): Corrected retrieval of resultPtr
-	to prevent possible corruption.
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Import): Correctly freed a DString.
-	[Patch 403755] (lavana)
-
-2001-03-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/set-old.test (set-old-7.2): Changed error behaviour of
-	[unset] to agree with documentation, so must change test as well.
-
-2001-03-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/package.tcl (pkg_mkIndex):  Added patch from Vince Darley to
-	make [pkg_mkIndex -verbose] even more verbose. [Bug 219349, Patch
-	403529]
-
-2001-03-13  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/info.n: Improved documentation for [info hostname]. [Bug 403840]
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_UnsetObjCmd): Made command behave as
-	documented [issue remaining from Bug 405769]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): A missing {return TCL_OK;}
-	was causing memory corruption. [Bug 408002]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclDeleteExecEnv, GrowEvaluationStack,
-	(TclExecuteByteCode): Added some casts to ClientData that are
-	apparently needed on some architectures.
-
-2001-03-12  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/string.test: Fixed some test numberings and added a test.
-	[Patch 403229]
-
-2001-03-06  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_UnsetObjCmd): Rewrote argument parser to avoid
-	a read off the end of the argument array that could occur when
-	executing something like [unset -nocomplain] was executed. Improved
-	the error message given when not enough arguments are given (-nocomplain
-	should obviously be *before* --, not after it) and also modified the
-	test suite to take account of that and the documentation to use the
-	same improvement. [Bug 405769]
-
-2001-03-02  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed bug that could pass
-	pointers to freed memory to command implementations, which most
-	obviously caused some weird behaviour with [info level], but could
-	have caused problems with user code and command traces too. [Bug
-	404865, Patch 405436]
-
-2001-02-23  msofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* no changes; fixing up the missing comment in the previous one.
-	Sorry.
-
-2001-02-23  msofer  <msofer@ant.utdt>
-
-	* /cvsroot/tcl/tcl/tests/execute.test: added test for evaluation of an
-	expression in a variable; evals once by compiling, second time using
-	the previous compilation
-
-2001-02-18  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/clock.n: Updated documentation to reflect the addition of
-	compat/strftime.c, including the correct formatting of ISO-8601:1988
-	fiscal week number (%V).
-
-2001-02-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SplitObjCmd): Improved efficiency of
-	splitting strings into individual characters by adding hash so that
-	only one Tcl_Obj per character is created. Improves performance of
-	splitting of short strings and makes a huge difference to splitting of
-	long strings, such as is done in the mime package in tcllib. [Bug
-	131523]
-
-2001-01-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc (install-libraries):  Corrected misdirected install
-	directory for the msgcat 1.2 package.
-
-2001-01-30  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Moved code that updates the count of how
-	many bytes are left to copy. Corrects bug that when writing occurs in
-	the background, the copy loop could be escaped without updating the
-	count, causing CopyData() to try to copy more bytes than the toRead
-	value originally passed to TclCopyChannel(), leading to hangs and
-	misreporting of number of bytes copied. [Bug 118203, Patch 103432]
-
-2001-01-18  Andreas Kupries  <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
-	Everything below belongs together, it fixes [Bug 123153]
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (line 342): A bit more explanation about the default
-	value for TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATABILITY.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (line 1208): Define the macro 'Tcl_InitHashTable' only
-	when TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATIBILITY is not set as it kills binary
-	compatibility to 8.3 and earlier versions. This is the main part of
-	the patch/change.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls (line 1469):
-	* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTable):
-	* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTableEx):
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_InitObjHashTable): Changed
-	'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to 'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'. This change is
-	more of an estethical nature, replacing the ubiquitous 'Ex' suffix
-	with a more meaningful name. The introduced binary incompatibility is
-	deemed acceptable as it is between alpha versions.  Updated callers.
-
-	* doc/Hash.3:
-	* unix/mkLinks: Changed 'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to
-	'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'.
-
-2001-01-10  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-1.20):
-	* tests/winDde.test (createChildProcess):
-	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test (pkgtest::createIndex): Removed assumption
-	that paths contain no spaces which causes problems with both [eval]
-	and [open |...] due to the well-known differences between lists and
-	strings. Fixes [Bug 119406]
-
-2001-01-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):  Several entries in the
-	library path ($tcl_libPath) are determined relative to the absolute
-	path of the executable. When the executable is installed in or near
-	the root directory of the file system, relative pathnames were being
-	incorrectly generated, and in the worst case, memory access violations
-	were crashing the program. [Bug 119416, Patch 102972]

-	* tests/winPipe.test:
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid):
-	* win/tclWinTest.c:  Gave Tcl_WaitPid the ability to return a Win32
-	exception code translated into a Posix-style SIG*. This allows [close]
-	to report "CHILDKILLED" without the meaning getting lost in a
-	truncated exit code. In TclCleanupChildren(), TclpGetPid() had to get
-	moved to before Tcl_WaitPid() as the the handle is removed from the
-	list taking away the ability to get the process id after the wait is
-	done. This shouldn't effect the unix implimentaion unless waitpid is
-	called with a pid of zero, meaning "any". I don't think it is..

-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings, WinEncodingsCleanup):
-	add exit handler that resets the encoding information to a state where
-	we can reuse Tcl. Following these changes, it is possible to reuse Tcl
-	(following Tcl_FindExecutable or Tcl_CreateInterp) following a
-	Tcl_Finalize.

-	details aren't.
-
-2002-12-04  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid):  When a process exits with an
-	exception, pass this notice on to the caller with a SIG* code rather
-	than truncating the exit code and missing the meaning. This allows
-	TclCleanupChildren() to report "CHILDKILLED".
-
-	This has a different behavior than unix in that closing the read pipe
-	to a process sends the SIGPIPE signal which is returned as a SIGPIPE
-	exit status. On windows, we send the process a CTRL_BREAK_EVENT and
-	get back a CONTROL_C_EXIT which is documented to mean a SIGINT which
-	seems wrong as a system, but is the correct exit status.
-
-2002-12-04  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to redirected 'load' in virtual filesystem
-	for some Unix systems.
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: the filesystem must be cleaned up before the
-	encoding subsystem because it needs access to encodings. Fixes crash
-	on exit observed in embedded applications.
-
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c: patch omitted from previous change of
-	2002-11-13
-
-2002-12-03  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-2002-12-03  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c (sigHandler): Protect from trying to close a NULL
-	handle.
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc, TclpCreateProcess): Send a real
-	Win32 signal (CTRL_C_EVENT) when the read channel is brought down to
-	alert the child to close on its side. Start the process with
-	CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP to allow the ability to send these signals.
-	The following test case now brings down the child without the use of
-	an external [kill] command.
-
-	% set p [open "|[info name]" w+]
-	file8d5380
-	% pid $p
-	2876
-	% close $p     <- now doesn't block in Tcl_WaitPid()
-	%
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc): Changed CTRL_C_EVENT to
-	CTRL_BREAK_EVENT as it can't be ignored by the child and proved to
-	work on [open "|netstat 1" w+] where CTRL_C_EVENT didn't.

-	like it. Even though the core doesn't use the prototypes, do offer
-	them.
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Removed shutdown() from the function table as it
-	wasn't referenced anywhere and cleaned-up some casting that that
-	wasn't needed.
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: WSAStartup() loaded version comparison error which
-	resulted in 2.0 looking less than 1.1.

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (valgrind): add simple valgrind target
-
-	* tests/exec.test: unset path var to allow singleproc testing
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (AliasCreate): preserve/release interps to

-
-2002-11-26  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:  This patch does two things:
-
-	1) Cleans-up the winsock typedefs by using the typedefs provided by
-	winsock2.h. This has no effect on how winsock is initialized; just
-	makes the source code easier to read. [Patch 561305 561301]
-
-	2) Revamps how the socket message handler thread is brought up and
-	down to allow for cleaner exits without the use of TerminateThread().
-	TerminateThread is evil. No attempt has been made to resolve [Bug
-	593810] which may need a new channel driver version for adding a
-	registering function within the transfered thread to init the handler
-	thread. IOW, initialization of the TSD structure is getting bypassed
-	through the thread extension's [thread::transfer] command.

-	* win/tclWinConsole.c:
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c:
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:
-	* win/tclWinTime.c:  General cleanup of all worker threads used by the
-	channel drivers. Eliminates the normal case where the worker thread is
-	terminated ('cept the winsock one). Instead, use kernel events to
-	signal a clean exit. Only when the worker thread is blocked on an I/O
-	call is the thread terminated. Essentially, this makes all other
-	channel worker threads behave like the PipeReaderThread() function for
-	it's cleaner exit behavior. This appears to fix [Bug 597924] but needs
-	3rd party confirmation to close the issue.
-
-2002-11-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/README: Update msys build env URL. This release #4 build both
-	tcl and tk without problems.
-
-2002-11-22  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* library/init.tcl:         code cleanup to reduce use of
-	* library/opt/optparse.tcl: string compare
-
-	* tests/interp.test: interp-14.4
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (TclPreventAliasLoop): prevent seg fault when
-	creating an alias command over the interp name. [Bug 641195]
-
-2002-11-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (SetEndOffsetFromAny): handle integer offset
-	after the "end-" prefix.
-
-	* generic/get.test:
-	* generic/string.test:
-	* generic/tclObj.c (SetIntFromAny, SetWideIntFromAny):
-	* generic/tclGet.c (TclGetLong, Tcl_GetInt): simplify sign handling
-	before calling strtoul(l). [Bug 634856]
-
-2002-11-18  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread/TclpThreadExit): Fixed improper
-	compiler macros that missed the VC++ compiler. This resulted in VC++
-	builds using CreateThread()/ExitThread() in place of the proper
-	_beginthreadex()/_endthreadex(). This was a large error and am
-	surprised I missed seeing it earlier.
-
-2002-11-13  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/regexpComp.test: added tests 22.*
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): add left and right
-	anchoring (^ and $) recognition and check starting or ending .* to
-	extend the number of REs that can be compiled to string match or
-	string equal.
-
-2002-11-13  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
-	* tests/trace.test: applied patch from Hemang Levana to fix [Bug
-	615043] in execution traces with 'return -code error'.
-
-	* generic/tclTestObj.c:
-	* tests/stringObj.test: added 'knownBug' test for [Bug 635200]
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: corrected typos in comments
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c:
-	* tests/fileName.test: applied patch for bug reported against tclvfs
-	concerning handling of Windows serial ports like 'com1', 'lpt3' by the
-	virtual filesystem code.
-
-	* doc/RegExp.3: clarification of the 'extendMatch' return values.
-
-2002-11-11  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_Backslash): use TclUtfToUniChar.
-	(Tcl_StringCaseMatch): use TclUtfToUniChar and add further
-	optimizations for the one-byte/char case.
-
-	* generic/tclUtf.c: make use of TclUtfToUniChar macro throughout the
-	functions, and add extra optimization to Tcl_NumUtfChars for
-	one-byte/char case.
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (DisposeTraceResult, CallVarTraces): add proper
-	static declarations.
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_GetCharLength): optimize for the ascii
-	char case.
-	(Tcl_GetUniChar): remove unnecessary use of Tcl_UtfToUniChar.
-	(FillUnicodeRep): Use TclUtfToUniChar.
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey): move string++ lower to save an
-	instruction.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): improve INST_STR_CMP to
-	use memcmp in the one-byte/char case, also use direct index for
-	INST_STR_INDEX in that case.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (UtfToUtfProc, UtfToUnicodeProc):
-	(TableFromUtfProc, EscapeFromUtfProc): Use TclUtfToUniChar.
-	(UnicodeToUtfProc, TableToUtfProc): add 1-byte char optimizations for
-	Tcl_UniCharToUtf call. These improve encoded channel conversion speeds
-	by up to 20%.
-
-	* tests/split.test: added 1-char string split tests
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SplitObjCmd): Use TclUtfToUniChar. Also
-	added a special case for single-ascii-char splits.
-	(Tcl_StringObjCmd): Use TclUtfToUniChar. For STR_RANGE, support
-	getting ranges of ByteArrays (reverts change from 2000-05-26).
-	(TraceExecutionProc) add proper static declaration.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: add macro version of Tcl_UtfToUniChar
-	(TclUtfToUniChar) that does the one-byte utf-char check without

-
-	* generic/tcl.h (TCL_PATCH_LEVEL): bump to 8.4.1.1 for patchlevel
-	only. This interim number will only be reflected by [info patchlevel].

-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:  linkexten option now sets the TCL_USE_STATIC_PACKAGES
-	macro which also adds the registry and dde object files to the link
-	of the shell. [Patch 479697] Also factored some additional macros that
-	will be helpful for extension authors. Version grepping of tcl.h will
-	need to be added to complete this.

-
-	* doc/StringObj.3, doc/Object.3: Documented that Tcl_Obj's standard
-	string form is a modified UTF-8; apparently, this was not mentioned

-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Added proper exiting conditions using Win32

-
-	* macosx/Makefile: preserve environment value of INSTALL_ROOT. When

-	TCL_MEM_DEBUG is used. [Bug 583445]
-
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c (ConsoleCloseProc): only wait on writable pipe
-	if there was something to write. This may prevent infinite wait on
-	exit.
-
-	* tests/exec.test: marked exec-18.1 unixOnly until the Windows
-	incompatibility (in the test, not the core) can be resolved.
-
-	* tests/http.test (http-3.11): added close $fp that was causing an

-	*** macosx-8-4-branch merged into the mainline [Patch 602770] ***
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls: added new macosx specific entry to stubs table.
-
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl: added generation of platform guards for
-	macosx. This is a little more complex than it seems, because MacOS X
-	IS "unix" plus a little bit, for the purposes of Tcl. BUT
-	unfortunately, Tk uses "unix" to mean X11. So added platform keys for
-	macosx (the little added to "unix"), "aqua" and "x11" to distinguish
-	these for Tk.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: added a #ifnded RESOURCE_INCLUDED so that tcl.h can
-	be passed to the resource compiler.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclNotify.c: added a few Notifier procs, to be able to
-	modify more bits of the Tcl notifier dynamically. Required to get Mac
-	OS X Tk to live on top of the Tcl Unix threaded notifier. Changes the
-	size of the Tcl_NotifierProcs structure, but doesn't move any elements
-	around.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: moved the call to Tcl_ConditionNotify till
-	AFTER we are done mucking with the pointer swap. Fixes cases where the
-	thread waiting on the condition wakes & accesses the waitingListPtr
-	before it gets reset, causing a hang.
-
-	* library/auto.tcl (tcl_findLibrary): added checking the directories
-	in the tcl_pkgPath for library files on macosx to enable support of
-	the standard Mac OSX library locations.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* unix/tcl.m4: added MAC_OSX_DIR. Added PLAT_OBJS to the OBJS: there
-	are some MacOS X specific files now for Tcl, and when I get the
-	resource & applescript stuff ported over, and restore support for
-	FindFiles, etc, there will be a few more. Added LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR
-	configure variable to avoid having to set all possible LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-	analogues on all platforms. LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR is "LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
-	by default, "LIBPATH" on AIX, "SHLIB_PATH" on HPUX and
-	"DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" on Mac OSX. Added configure option to package Tcl
-	as a framework on Mac OSX.
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c (new): support for finding Tcl extension
-	packaged as 'bundles' in the standard Mac OSX library locations.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: added support for findig the tcl script library
-	inside Tcl packaged as a framework on Mac OSX.
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/jingham.pbxuser (new):
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj (new): project for Apple's
-	ProjectBuilder IDE.
-
-	* macosx/Makefile (new): simple makefile for building the project from
-	the command line via the ProjectBuilder tool 'pbxbuild'.
-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h: regen

-2002-08-28  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclEnv.c:
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:  putenv() on some systems copies the buffer rather
-	than taking reference to it. This causes memory leaks and is know to
-	effect mswindows (msvcrt) and NetBSD 1.5.2 . This patch tests for this
-	behavior and turns on -DHAVE_PUTENV_THAT_COPIES=1 when approriate.
-	Thanks to David Welton for assistance. [Bug 414910]
-
-	* unix/configure: regen'd
-
-2002-08-28  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/eval.n: Added mention of list command and corrected "SEE ALSO".
-
-	* unix/configure.in: Cache handling of ac_cv_type_socklen_t was wrong.
-	[Bug 600931] reported by John Ellson. Fixed by putting the brackets
-	where they belong.
-
-2002-08-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: fix for [Bug 599788] (error in element name
-	causing segfault), reported by Tom Wilkason. Fixed by copying the
-	tokens instead of the source string.
-
-2002-08-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: small optimisation, reducing the new
-	allocator's overhead.
-
-2002-08-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (USE_THREAD_ALLOC): fixed leak [Bug 597936]. Thanks

-
-2002-08-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2002-08-20  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (CFLAGS):
-	* unix/Makefile.in (MEM_DEBUG_FLAGS): Added usage of @MEM_DEBUG_FLAGS@.
-	* win/configure.in:
-	* unix/configure.in: Added usage of SC_ENABLE_MEMDEBUG.
-	* win/tcl.m4:
-	* unix/tcl.m4: Added macro SC_ENABLE_MEMDEBUG. Allows a user of
-	configure to (de)activate memory validation and debugging
-	(TCL_MEM_DEBUG). No need to modify the makefile anymore.
-
-2002-08-20  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c:	CONSTified MemoryCmd and CheckmemCmd.

-	* win/configure:
-
-	* library/http/http.tcl:	Corrected installation directory of
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:	the package tcltest 2.2. Added
-	* library/opt/optparse.tcl:	comments in other packages to remind
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	that installation directories need
-	* unix/Makefile.in:		updates to match increasing version

-
-2002-08-19  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c (TestfilehandlerCmd): Changed readable/writable
-	to the more common readable|writable. Fixes [Bug 596034] reported by
-	Larry Virden <lvirden@users.sourceforge.net>.
-
-2002-08-16  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test: Added test to make sure that the cause of the
-	problem is detectable with an unpatched Tcl.
-	* doc/ObjectType.3: Added note on the root cause of this problem to
-	the documentation, since it is possible for user code to trigger this
-	sort of behaviour too.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (SetFsPathFromAny): Objects should only have
-	their old representation deleted when we know that we are about to
-	install a new one. This stops a weird TclX bug under Linux with
-	certain kinds of memory debugging enabled which essentally came down
-	to a double-free of a string.
-
-2002-08-14  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c: (code cleanup) factored the parts in the macros
-	TclNewObj() / TclDecrRefCount() into a common part for all
-	memory allocators and two new macros TclAllocObjStorage() /
-	TclFreeObjStorage() that are specific to each allocator and fully
-	describe the differences. Removed allocator-specific code from
-	tclObj.c by using the macros.
-
-2002-08-12  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fixing UMR in delete traces, [Bug 589863].
-
-2002-08-08  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tools/man2help.tcl: Fixed $argv handling bug where if -bitmap wasn't
-	specified $argc was off by one.
-
-2002-08-08  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/uplevel.test: added 6.1 to test [uplevel] with shadowed
-	commands [Bug 524383]
-
-	* tests/subst.test: added 5.8-10 as further tests for [Bug 495207]
-
-2002-08-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/README: Noted removal of defs.tcl.
-
-2002-08-08  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/lsearch.n: corrected lsearch docs to use -inline in examples.
-
-	*** 8.4b2 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test:
-	* tests/unixFCmd.test: updated tests for new link copy behavior.
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c (CopyRenameOneFile): changed the behavior to
-	follow links to endpoints and copy that file/directory instead of just
-	copying the surface link. This means that trying to copy a link that
-	has no endpoint (danling link) is an error. [Patch 591647] (darley)
-	(CopyRenameOneFile): this is currently disabled by default until
-	further issues with such behavior (like relative links) can be
-	handled correctly.
-
-	* tests/README: slight wording improvements
-
-2002-08-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* docs/BoolObj.3: added description of valid string reps for a
-	boolean object. [Bug 584794]
-	* generic/tclObj.c: optimised Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj and
-	SetBooleanFromAny to avoid parsing the string rep when it can be
-	avoided. [Bugs 584650, 472576]
-
-2002-08-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c: making tclCmdNameType static ([Bug 584567], Don
-	Porter).
-
-2002-08-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_NewObj): added conditional code for
-	USE_THREAD_ALLOC; objects allocated through Tcl_NewObj() were
-	otherwise being leaked. [Bug 587488] reported by Sven Sass.
-
-2002-08-06  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Added stubs and implementations for
-	non-threaded build for the tclUnixThrd.c procs TclpReaddir,
-	TclpLocaltime, TclpGmtime and TclpInetNtoa. Fixes link errors in
-	stubbed & threaded extensions that include tclUnixPort.h and use any
-	of the procs readdir, localtime, gmtime or inet_ntoa (e.g. TclX 8.4)
-	[Bug 589526]
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Regen.
-
-2002-08-05  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	The setup and cleanup scripts are now
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl:	skipped when a test is skipped, fixing
-	* tests/tcltest.test:		[Bug 589859]. Test for bug added, and
-	corrected tcltest package bumped to version 2.2.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	Restored Tcl_Concat to return (char *). Like
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	Tcl_Merge, it transfers ownership of a dynamic
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	allocated string to the caller.
-
-2002-08-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/CmdCmplt.3:	Applied Patch 585105 to fully CONST-ify all
-	* doc/Concat.3:		remaining public interfaces of Tcl. Notably,
-	* doc/CrtCommand.3:	the parser no longer writes on the string it
-	* doc/CrtSlave.3:	is parsing, so it is no longer necessary for
-	* doc/CrtTrace.3:	Tcl_Eval() to be given a writable string. Also
-	* doc/Eval.3:		the refactoring of the Tcl_*Var* routines by
-	* doc/ExprLong.3:	by Miguel Sofer is included, so that the
-	* doc/LinkVar.3:	"part1" argument for them no longer needs to
-	* doc/ParseCmd.3:	be writable either.
-	* doc/SetVar.3:
-	* doc/TraceVar.3:
-	* doc/UpVar.3:		Compatibility support has been enhanced so
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	that a #define of USE_NON_CONST will remove
-	* generic/tcl.h:	all possible source incompatibilities with the
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	8.3 version of the header file(s). The new
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	#define of USE_COMPAT_CONST now does what
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:USE_NON_CONST used to do -- disable only those
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:new CONST's that introduce irreconcilable
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	incompatibilities.
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	Several bugs are also fixed by this patch.

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: bugfix (reading freed memory). Testsuite
-	passed on linux/i386, compile-13.1 hung on linux/alpha.
-
-2002-08-01  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: added a reference count for the complete
-	execution stack, instead of Tcl_Preserve/Tcl_Release.
-
-2002-08-01  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c (TclFinalizeMemorySubsystem): Don't lock the
-	ckalloc mutex before invoking the Tcl_DumpActiveMemory function since
-	it also locks the same mutex. This code is only executed when "memory
-	onexit filename" has been executed and Tcl is compiled with
-	-DTCL_MEM_DEBUG.
-
-2002-08-01  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: The windows headers don't provide socklen_t, so we
-	have to do it.
-
-2002-07-31  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (USE_THREAD_ALLOC): for unshared objects,
-	TclDecrRefCount now frees the internal rep before the string rep -
-	just like the non-macro Tcl_DecrRefCount/TclFreeObj [Bug 524802]. For
-	the other allocators the fix was done on 2002-03-06.
-
-2002-07-31  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c: signed/unsigned comparison warning fixed
-	(Vince Darley).
-
-2002-07-31  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_BUGGY_STRTOD): Enabled caching of test results.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_BUGGY_STRTOD): Solaris 2.8 still has a buggy
-	strtod() implementation; make sure we detect it.
-
-	* tests/expr.test (expr-22.*): Marked as non-portable because it seems
-	that these tests have an annoying tendency to fail in unexpected ways.
-	[Bugs 584825, 584950, 585986]
-
-2002-07-30  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/io.test:
-	* generic/tclIO.c (WriteChars): Added flag to break out of loop if
-	nothing of the input is consumed at all, to prevent infinite looping
-	of called with a non-UTF-8 string. Fixes Bug 584603 (partially). Added
-	new test "io-60.1". Might need additional changes to Tcl_Main so that
-	unprintable results are printed as binary data.
-
-2002-07-29  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Use CC_SEARCH_FLAGS instead of LD_SEARCH_FLAGS
-	when linking with ${CC}.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Don't subst CC_SEARCH_FLAGS or LD_SEARCH_FLAGS
-	since this is now done in tcl.m4.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Document and set CC_SEARCH_FLAGS
-	whenever LD_SEARCH_FLAGS is set. [Patch 588290]
-
-2002-07-29  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_SERIAL_PORT): Fixed detection for cases when
-                                        configure's stdin is not a tty.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-	* generic/tclIOSock.c:          Changed size_t to socklen_t in
-                                        socket-related function calls.
-
-	* unix/configure.in:            Added test and fallback definition
-                                        for socklen_t.

-
-	* generic/tclObj.c: fixed a comment
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclInterp.c: added the new flag TCL_EVAL_INVOKE to the
-	interface of the Tcl_Eval* functions, removing the
-	TCL_EVAL_NO_TRACEBACK added yesterday: alias invocations not only
-	require no tracebacks, but also look up the command name in the global
-	scope - see new test interp-9.4
-	* tests/interp.test: added 9.3 to test for safety of aliases to hidden
-	commands, 9.4 to test for correct command lookup scope.
-
-2002-07-29  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/regc_locale.c (cclass): [[:xdigit:]] is only a defined
-	concept on western characters, so should not allow any unicode digit,
-	and hence number of ranges in [[:xdigit:]] is fixed.
-	* tests/reg.test: Added test to detect the bug.
-	* generic/regc_cvec.c (newcvec): Corrected initial size value in
-	character vector structure. [Bug 578363] Many thanks to
-	pvgoran@users.sf.net for tracking this down.
-
-2002-07-28  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: added the new flag TCL_EVAL_NO_TRACEBACK to the
-	interface of the Tcl_Eval* functions. Modified the error message for
-	too many nested evaluations.
-	* generic/tclInterp.h: changed the Alias struct to be of variable
-	length and store the prefix arguments directly (instead of a pointer
-	to a Tcl_Obj list). Made AliasObjCmd call Tcl_EvalObjv instead of
-	TclObjInvoke - thus making aliases trigger execution traces [Bug
-	582522].
-	* tests/interp.test:
-	* tests/stack.test: adapted to the new error message.
-	* tests/trace.test: added tests for aliases firing the exec traces.
-
-2002-07-27  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Revert fix for Tcl bug 529801 since it was
-	incorrect and broke the build on other systems. Fix [Bug 587299]. Add
-	MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, PATCH_LEVEL, SHLIB_LD_FLAGS,
-	SHLIB_LD_LIBS, CC_SEARCH_FLAGS, LD_SEARCH_FLAGS, and LIB_FILE
-	variables to support more generic library build/install rules.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Move AC_PROG_RANLIB into tcl.m4. Move shared
-	build test and setting of MAKE_LIB and MAKE_STUB_LIB into tcl.m4. Move
-	subst of a number of variables into tcl.m4 where they are defined.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS, SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Subst vars where
-	they are defined. Add MAKE_LIB, MAKE_STUB_LIB, INSTALL_LIB, and
-	INSTALL_STUB_LIB rules to deal with the ugly details of running ranlib
-	on static libs at build and install time. Replace TCL_SHLIB_LD_EXTRAS
-	with SHLIB_LD_FLAGS and use it when building a shared library.
-	* unix/tclConfig.sh.in: Add TCL_CC_SEARCH_FLAGS.

-
-2002-07-26  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-
-2002-07-24  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>

-	* tests/unixInit.test: relaxed unixInit-3.1 to accept iso8859-15 as a
-	valid C encoding. [Bug 575336]
-
-2002-07-24  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: restoring the tcl_traceCompile functionality
-	while I repair tcl_traceExec. The core now compiles and runs also
-	under TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG, but execution in the bytecode engine can
-	still not be traced.

-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/configure.in: corrected fix for [Bug 529801]: ranlib only
-	needed for static builds on Mac OS X.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tclLoadDyld.c: fixed small bugs introduced by Vince,
-	implemented library unloading correctly (needs OS X 10.2).

-	cannot be located.
-
-2002-07-22  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: made tclNativeFilesystem static (since 07-19
-	changes removed its usage elsewhere), and added comments about its
-	usage.
-	* generic/tclLoad.c:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: converted last load-related ClientData parameter

-	is now static again.
-
-2002-07-22  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-

-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* win/configure:

-2002-07-19  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: fix to build on MacOS X [Bug 529801], bug report
-	and fix from jcw.
-
-2002-07-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c (no_timeout): Made this variable static.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c, generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (builtinFuncTable, instructionTable): Added
-	prefix to these symbols because they are visible outside the Tcl
-	library.
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (operatorTable):
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c (tmKey):
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (theFilesystemEpoch, filesystemWantToModify,
-	filesystemIteratorsInProgress, filesystemOkToModify): Made these
-	variables static.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:		Renamed nativeFilesystem to

-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:		it properly in tclInt.h
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-
-	* generic/tclUtf.c (totalBytes): Made this array static and const.
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (typeTable): Made this array static and const.
-	(Tcl_ParseBraces): Simplified error handling case so that scans are
-	only performed when needed, and flags are simpler too.
-
-	* license.terms: Added AS to list of copyright holders; it's only
-	fair for the current gatekeepers to be listed here!
-
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test: Renamed constraint for clarity. [Bug 583427]
-	Added tests for the [time] command, which was previously only
-	indirectly tested!

-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* */*Load*.c: added comments on changes of 07/17 and replaced

-
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c:
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: fixed a 'knownBug' with 'file attributes ""'
-	* tests/winFCmd.test:
-	* tests/winPipe.test:
-	* tests/fCmd.test:
-	* tessts/winFile.test: added 'pcOnly' constraint to some tests to make

-
-2002-07-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (CallCommandTraces): delete traces now receive

-
-2002-07-18  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/ioUtil.test: added constraints to 1.4,2.4 so they don't run
-	outside of tcltest. [Bugs 583276, 583277]
-
-2002-07-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (DupParsedVarName): nasty bug fixed, reported by
-	Vince Darley.
-
-2002-07-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-	* mac/tclMacLoad.c:
-	* win/tclWinLoad.c: modified to move more functionality to the generic

-
-2002-07-17  D. Richard Hipp    <drh@hwaci.com>
-
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: fix a comment that was causing problems
-	for programs (ex: mktclapp) that embed the initialization scripts in
-	strings.
-
-2002-07-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclVar.c: removing the now redundant functions to access
-	indexed variables: Tcl(Get|Set|Incr)IndexedScalar() and

-
-2002-07-17  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Minor fixes to make this
-	file compile with SunPro CC...
-
-2002-07-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: modified to do variable lookup explicitly, and
-	then either inlining the variable access or else calling the new
-	TclPtr(Set|Get|Incr)Var functions in tclVar.c
-	* generic/tclInt.h: declare some functions previously local to
-	tclVar.c for usage by TEBC.
-	* generic/tclVar.c: removed local declarations; moved all special
-	accessor functions for indexed variables to the end of the file -
-	they are unused and ready for removal, but left there for the time
-	being as they are in the internal stubs table.
-
-	** WARNING FOR BYTECODE MAINTAINERS **
-	TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG is currently not functional; will be fixed ASAP.
-
-2002-07-16  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* win/Makefile.in: Add a more descriptive warning in the event `make
-	genstubs` needs to be rerun.
-
-2002-07-16  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Use dltest.marker file to keep track of when the
-	dltest package is up to date. This fixes [Bug 575768] since tcltest is
-	no longer linked every time.
-	* unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Create ../dltest.marker after a successful
-	`make all` run in dltest.
-
-2002-07-16  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo):
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	Added two Tcl_Obj to the ExecEnv structure to hold the fully qualified
-	names "::errorInfo" and "::errorCode" to cache the addresses of the
-	corresponding variables. The two most frequent setters of these
-	variables now profit from the new variable name caching.
-
-2002-07-15  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: refactorisation to reuse already looked-up Var
-	pointers; definition of three new Tcl_Obj types to cache variable name
-	parsing and lookup for later reuse; modification of internal functions
-	to profit from the caching.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c: adding CONST qualifiers to variable names
-	passed to Tcl_FindNamespaceVar and to variable resolvers; adding CONST
-	qualifier to the 'msg' argument to TclLookupVar. Needed to avoid code
-	duplication in the new tclVar.c code.
-
-	* tests/set-old.test:
-	* tests/var.test: slight modification of error messages due to the
-	modifications in the tclVar.c code.
-
-2002-07-15  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	Improved constraints to protect /tmp. [Bug

-
-2002-07-15  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: renamed 'win2000' and 'notWin2000' to more
-	appropriate constraint names.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: updated comments to reflect 07-11 changes.
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c: made ConvertFileNameFormat static again, since no
-	longer used in tclWinFile.c
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c: completed TclpObjLink implementation which was
-	previously lacking.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: comment cleanup and code speedup.
-
-2002-07-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Removed declarations that duplicated entries
-	in the (internal) stub table.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  Corrected errors in handling of
-	configuration options -constraints and -limitconstraints.
-
-	* README:		Bumped HEAD to version 8.4b2 so we can

-2002-07-11  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n:
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: on Win 95/98/ME the long form of the path is used
-	as a normalized form. This is required because short forms are not a
-	robust representation. The file normalization function has been sped
-	up, but more performance gains might be possible, if speed is still an
-	issue on these platforms.
-
-2002-07-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected reaction to existing but
-	false ::tcl_interactive.
-
-	* doc/Hash.3: Overlooked CONST documentation update.
-
-2002-07-11  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: ckalloc() and friends take the block size as
-	an unsigned, so we should use %ud when reporting it in fprintf() and
-	panic().
-
-2002-07-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: now setting local vars undefined at compile
-	time, instead of waiting until the proc is initialized.
-	* generic/tclProc.c: use macro TclSetVarUndefined instead of directly
-	setting the flag.
-
-2002-07-11  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: [file attr -perm] is Unix-only, so add [catch]
-	when not inside a suitably-protected test.
-
-2002-07-10  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/unixFCmd.test, tests/fileName.test:
-	* tests/fCmd.test: Removed [exec] of Unix utilities that have
-	equivalents in standard Tcl. [Bug 579268] Also simplified some of
-	unixFCmd.test while I was at it.
-
-2002-07-10  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test:  Greatly reduced the number of [exec]s, using
-	slave interps instead.
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  Fixed bug uncovered in the conversion
-	where a message was written to stdout instead of [outputChannel].
-
-	* tests/basic.test:	Cleaned up, constrained, and reduced the
-	* tests/compile.test:	amount of [exec] usage in the test suite.

-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: Removed [exec] of Unix utilities. [Bug 579211]
-
-	* tests/expr.test: Added tests to make sure that this works.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (ExprCallMathFunc): Functions should also be
-	able to return wide-ints. [Bug 579284]
-
-2002-07-08  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/socket.test: Fixed [Bug 578164]. The original reason for the
-	was a DNS outage while running the testsuite. Changed [info hostname]
-	to 127.0.0.1 to bypass DNS, knowing that we operate on the local host.
-
-2002-07-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n:		Fixed incompatibility in [viewFile].
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Corrected docs. Bumped to 2.2.1.
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: [Bug 578163]
-
-2002-07-08  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:
-	* tests/fCmd.test:
-	* tests/fileName.test: tests which rely on 'file link' need a
-	constraint so they don't run on older Windows OS. [Bug 578158]
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* mac/tclMacChan.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:
-	* win/tclWinChan.c:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: cleaned up internal handling of
-	Tcl_FSOpenFileChannel to remove duplicate code, and make writing
-	external vfs's clearer and easier. No functionality change. Also
-	clarify that objects with refCount zero should not be passed in to the
-	Tcl_FS API, and prevent segfaults from occuring on such user errors.
-	[Bug 578617]
-
-2002-07-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test:  Constrained tests of [load] package indexing
-	to those platforms where the testing shared libraries have been built.
-	[Bug 578166]
-
-2002-07-05  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* changes: added recent changes
-
-2002-07-05  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): Convert the format string to utf-8
-	before calling TclpStrftime, so that non-ASCII characters don't get
-	mangled when the result string is being converted back.
-	* tests/clock.test: Added a test for that.
-
-2002-07-05  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (ro-test,ddd,GDB,DDD): Created new targets to
-	allow running the test suite with a read-only current directory,
-	running under ddd instead of gdb, and factored out some executable
-	names for broken sites (like mine) where gdb and ddd are installed
-	with non-standard names...
-
-	* tests/httpold.test: Altered test names to httpold-* to avoid clashes
-	with http.test, and stopped tests from failing when the current
-	directory is not writable...
-
-	* tests/event.test:		Stop these tests from failing when the

-	* tests/pkg/std.tcl: removed
-	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Fixed [Bug 575857] where this test file
-	expected to be able to write to [file join [testsDirectory] pkg]. Part
-	of the fix was to import several auxilliary files into the test file
-	itself.
-
-	* tests/main.test:	Cheap fix for [Bugs 575851, 575858]. Avoid
-	* tests/tcltest.test:	non-writable . by [cd [temporaryDirectory]].
-
-	* library/auto.tcl: Fix [tcl_findLibrary] to be sure it sets $varName
-	only if a successful library script is found. [Bug 577033]
-
-2002-07-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileCatchCmd): return
-	TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE instead of TCL_ERROR: let the failure happen at

-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Made Solaris use gcc for linking
-	when building with gcc to resolve problems with undefined symbols
-	being present when tcl library used with non-gcc linker at later
-	stage. Symbols were compiler-generated, so it is the compiler's
-	business to define them. [Bug 541181]
-
-2002-07-01  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n: more work in progress updating tcltest docs.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Change [configure -match] to stop
-	treating an empty list as a list of the single pattern "*". Changed
-	the default value to [list *] so default operation remains the same.
-
-	* tests/pkg/samename.tcl: restored. needed by pkgMkIndex.test.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: restored writability testing of
-	-tmpdir, augmented by a special exception for the deafault value.
-
-2002-07-01  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/concat.n: Documented the *real* behaviour of [concat]!
-
-2002-06-30  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n: more work in progress updating tcltest docs.
-
-	* tests/README:		Updated the instructions on running and
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test:	adding to the test suite. Also updated
-	* tests/encoding.test:	several tests, mostly to correctly create
-	* tests/fCmd.test:	and destroy any temporary files in the
-	* tests/info.test:	[temporaryDirectory] of tcltest.
-	* tests/interp.test:
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Stopped checking for writability of
-	-tmpdir value because no default directory can be guaranteed to be
-	writable.
-
-	* tests/autoMkindex.tcl: removed.
-	* tests/pkg/samename.tcl: removed.
-	* tests/pkg/magicchar.tcl: removed.
-	* tests/pkg/magicchar2.tcl: removed.
-	* tests/autoMkindex.test: Updated auto_mkIndex tests to use [makeFile]
-	and [removeFile] so tests are done in [temporaryDirecotry] where write
-	access is guaranteed.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Fixed [makeFile] and [viewFile] to
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:		accurately reflect a file's contents.
-	* tests/event.test:		Updated tests that depended on buggy
-	* tests/http.test:		behavior. Also added warning messages
-	* tests/io.test:		to "-debug 1" operations to debug test
-	* tests/iogt.test:		calls to (make|remove)(File|Directory)
-
-	* unix/mkLinks: `make mklinks` on 6-27 commits.
-
-2002-06-28  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-	reported by Peter Spjuth.
-
-2002-06-28  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* docs/tcltest.n:	Doc revisions in progress.

-	575150]
-
-2002-06-28  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:	Renamed the Tcl_Platform* #defines to TclOS*
-	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c:	because they are only used internally. Also
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:	stopped double-#def of TclOSlstat [Bug 566099,
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c:	post-rename]
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-
-	* doc/string.n: Improved documentation for [string last] along lines
-	described in [Bug 574799] so it indicates that the supplied index
-	marks the end of the search space.
-
-2002-06-27  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/dde.n:		Work in progress updating the documentation

-
-2002-06-26  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to handling of empty paths "" which are not

-	are given in all cases.
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: fix to bug reported as part of [Patch 566669].

-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Corrected suppression of -verbose skip

-	corrected test suite errors exposed by corrected code. [Bug 564656]
-
-2002-06-25  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4:       New macro SC_CONFIG_MANPAGES.
-	* unix/configure.in: Added support for symlinks and compression when
-	* unix/Makefile.in:  installing the manpages. [Patch 518052]
-	* unix/mkLinks.tcl:  Default is still hardlinks and no compression.
-
-	* unix/mkLinks:      generated
-	* unix/configure:
-
-	* unix/README:       Added documentation for the new features.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_PATH_TCLCONFIG): Replaced ${exec_prefix}/lib by
-	${libdir}.
-
-2002-06-25  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Fix of critical [Bug 533364]
-	generated when the index is bad and the result is a shared object. The
-	T_ASTO(T_GOR, ...) idiom likely exists elsewhere though. Also removed
-	some cruft that just complicated things to no advantage.
-	(SetEndOffsetFromAny): Same fix, though this wasn't on the path
-	excited by the bug.
-
-2002-06-24  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Implementation of TIP 101. Adds abd

-
-2002-06-22  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* changes: updated changes file for 8.4b1 release.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Corrections to tcltest and the Tcl
-	* tests/basic.test:		test suite so that a test with options
-	* tests/cmdInfo.test:		-constraints knownBug
-	* tests/compile.test:		-limitConstraints 1 only tests the
-	* tests/encoding.test:		knownBug tests. Mostly involves
-	* tests/env.test:		replacing direct access to the
-	* tests/event.test:		testConstraints array with calls to
-	* tests/exec.test:		the testConstraint command (which
-	* tests/execute.test:		requires tcltest version 2)

-
-2002-06-21  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c: LogSyntaxError() should reset the
-	interpreter result [Bug 550142 "Tcl_ExprObj -> abort"]
-
-2002-06-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Updated all package install directories
-	* win/Makefile.in:	to match current Major.minor versions
-	* win/makefile.bc:	of the packages. Added tcltest package
-	* win/makefile.vc:	to installation on Windows.
-
-	* library/init.tcl:  Corrected comments and namespace style issues.
-	Thanks to Bruce Stephens. [Bug 572025]
-
-2002-06-21  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:          Added TIP#99 implementation of 'file
-	* tests/fCmd.test:           link'. Supports creation of symbolic and
-	* tests/fileName.test:       hard links in the native filesystems and
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:     in vfs's, when the individual filesystem
-	* generic/tclTest.c:         supports the concept.

-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* doc/file.n:

-
-2002-06-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal): fix for [Bug 571385] in
-	the implementation of TIP#62 (command tracing). Vince Darley, Hemang
-	Lavana & Don Porter: thanks.
-
-2002-06-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj): clarified and simplified the
-	logic for compilation/recompilation.
-
-2002-06-19  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n: Fixed indentation. No substantive changes.
-
-2002-06-19  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): get the resultPtr again as
-	the Tcl_ObjSetVar2 may cause the result to change. [Patch 558324]
-	(watson)
-
-2002-06-19  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC): removing unused "for(;;)" loop;
-	improved comments; re-indentation.
-
-2002-06-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC):
-	- elimination of duplicated code in the non-immediate INST_INCR
-	  instructions.
-	- elimination of 103 (!) TclDecrRefCount macros. The different
-	  instructions now jump back to a common "DecrRefCount zone" at the
-	  top of the loop. The macro "ADJUST_PC" was replaced by two macros
-	  "NEXT_INST_F" and "NEXT_INST_V" that take three params
-	  (pcAdjustment, # of stack objects to discard, resultObjPtr handling
-	  flag). The only instructions that retain a TclDecrRefCount are
-	  INST_POP (for speed), the common code for the non-immediate
-	  INST_INCR, INST_FOREACH_STEP and the two INST_LSET.
-
-	The object size of tclExecute.o was reduced by approx 20% since the
-	start of the consolidation drive, while making room for some peep-hole
-	optimisation at runtime.
-
-2002-06-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC, INST_DONE): small bug in the panic code
-	for tcl-stack corruption.
-
-2002-06-17  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	Trims to support the removal of RESOURCE_INCLUDED from rc scripts from
-	[FRQ 565088].
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: moved the #ifndef RC_INVOKED start block up in the
-	file. rc scripts don't need to know thread mutexes.
-
-	* win/tcl.rc:
-	* win/tclsh.rc: removed the #define RESOURCE_INCLUDED to let the
-	built-in -DRC_INVOKED to the work.
-
-2002-06-17  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/CrtTrace.3:        Added TIP#62 implementation of command
-	* doc/trace.n:           execution tracing [FRQ 462580] (lavana).
-	* generic/tcl.h:         This includes enter/leave tracing as well
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:    as inter-procedure stepping.

-
-2002-06-17  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed [Bug 554068] ([exec] on
-	windows did not treat { in filenames well.). Bug reported by Vince
-	Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>, patch provided by Vince
-	too.
-
-2002-06-17  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: #ifdef logic for K&R C backwards compatibility
-	changed to assume modern C by default. See [FRQ 565088] for full
-	details.
-
-2002-06-17  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/msgcat.n: Corrected en_UK references to en_GB. UK is not a
-	country designation recognized in ISO 3166.
-
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:  More Windows Registry locale codes from
-	Bruno Haible.
-
-	* doc/msgcat.n:
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:
-	* tests/msgcat.test:  Revised locale initialization to interpret
-	environment variable locale values according to XPG4, and to recognize
-	the LC_ALL and LC_MESSAGES values over that of LANG. Also added many
-	Windows Registry locale values to those recognized by msgcat. Revised
-	tests and docs. Bumped to version 1.3. Thanks to Bruno Haible for the
-	report and assistance crafting the solution. [Bug 525522, 525525]
-
-2002-06-16  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileTokens): a better algorithm for the
-	previous bug fix.
-
-2002-06-16  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileTokens):
-	* tests/compile.test: [Bug 569438] in the processing of dollar
-	variables; report by Georgios Petasis.
-
-2002-06-16  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: bug in the consolidation of the INCR_..._STK
-	instructions; the bug could not be exercised as the (faulty)
-	instruction INST_INCR_ARRAY_STK was never compiled-in (related to [Bug
-	569438]).
-
-2002-06-14  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole
-	optimisation of variables (INST_STORE, INST_INCR) and commands
-	(INST_INVOKE); faster check for the existence of a catch.
-	(TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole optimisation of comparisons.
-	(TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole optimisation of INST_FOREACH -
-	relies on peculiarities of the code produced by the bytecode compiler.
-
-2002-06-14  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/rules.vc: The test for compiler optimizations was in error.
-	Thanks goes to Roy Terry <royterry@earthlink.net> for his assistance
-	with this.
-
-2002-06-14  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/trace.n, tests/trace.test:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd,TclTraceCommandObjCmd)
-	(TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Changed references to "trace list" to
-	"trace info" as mandated by TIP#102.
-
-2002-06-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated code for the
-	conditional branch instructions.
-
-2002-06-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): fixed the previous patch;
-	wouldn't compile with TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG set.
-
-2002-06-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated the handling
-	of exception returns to INST_INVOKE and INST_EVAL, as well as most of
-	the code for INST_CONTINUE and INST_BREAK, in the new jump target
-	"processExceptionReturn".
-
-2002-06-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated variable
-	handling opcodes, replaced redundant code with some 'goto'. All
-	store/append/lappend opcodes on the same data type now share the main
-	code; same with incr opcodes.
-	* generic/tclVar.c: added the bit TCL_TRACE_READS to the possible
-	flags to Tcl_SetVar2Ex - it causes read traces to be fired prior to
-	setting the variable. This is used in the core for [lappend].
-
-	***NOTE*** the usage of TCL_TRACE_READS in Tcl_(Obj)?GetVar.* is not
-	documented; there, it causes the call to create the variable if it
-	does not exist. The new usage in Tcl_(Obj)?SetVar.* remains
-	undocumented too ...

-2002-06-13  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test:
-	* tests/winFile.test:
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: fixed up further so both compiles and actually
-	works with VC++ 5 or 6.
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: cleaned up code and vfs tests and added tests for
-	the internal changes of 2002-06-12, to see whether WinTcl on NTFS can
-	coexist peacefully with links in the filesystem. Added new test
-	command 'testfilelink' to enable the newer code to be tested.
-	* tests/fCmd.test: (made certain tests of 'testfilelink' not run on
-	unix).
-
-2002-06-12  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteTrace): fixed [Bug 568123] (thanks to Hemang
-	Lavana)
-
-2002-06-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: corrected the symbolic link handling code to allow
-	it to compile. Added real definition of REPARSE_DATA_BUFFER (found in
-	winnt.h). Most of the added definitions appear to have correct,
-	cross-Win-version equivalents in winnt.h and should be removed, but
-	just making things "work" for now.
-
-2002-06-12  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: made code for Tcl_FSNewNativePath agree with man
-	pages.
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: clarified the circumstances under which certain
-	functions are called in the presence of symlinks.
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c:  Fix for Windows to allow 'file lstat', 'file
-	type', 'glob -type l', 'file copy', 'file delete', 'file normalize',
-	and all VFS code to work correctly in the presence of symlinks
-	(previously Tcl's behaviour was not very well defined). This also
-	fixes possible serious problems in all versions of WinTcl where 'file
-	delete' on a NTFS symlink could delete the original, not the symlink.
-	Note: symlinks cannot yet be created in pure Tcl.
-
-2002-06-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: reverted the new compilation functions; replaced
-	by a more general approach described below.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: made *all* compiled variable access attempts
-	create an indexed variable - even get or incr without previous set.
-	This allows indexed access to local variables that are created and set
-	at runtime, for example by [global], [upvar], [variable], [regexp],
-	[regsub].
-
-2002-06-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/global.n:
-	* doc/info.n:
-	* test/info.test:
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: fix for [Bug 567386], [info locals] was
-	reporting some linked variables.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added compile functions for [global], [variable]
-	and [upvar]. They just declare the new local variables, the commands
-	themselves are not compiled-in. This gives a notably faster read
-	access to these linked variables.
-
-2002-06-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: optimised algorithm for exception range
-	lookup; part of [Patch 453709].
-
-2002-06-10  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: fixed [Bug 566669]
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: improved and sped up handling of native paths
-	(duplication and conversion to normalized paths), particularly on
-	Windows.
-	* modified part of above commit, due to problems on Linux. Will
-	re-examine bug report and evaluate more closely.
-
-2002-06-07  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test:  More corrections to test suite so that tests of
-	failing [test]s don't show up themselves as failing tests.
-
-2002-06-07  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Tidied up headers in relation to float.h to
-	cut the cruft and ensure DBL_MAX is defined since doubles seem to be
-	the same size everywhere; if the assumption isn't true, the variant
-	platforms had better have run configure...
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h (EOVERFLOW): Added code to define it if it
-	wasn't previously defined. Also some other general tidying and adding

-	* unix/tclMtherr.c (removed file):
-	* win/tclWinMtherr.c (_matherr): Removed internal routine
-	TclMathInProgress and Unix implementation of matherr(). These are now
-	obsolete, dealing with very old versions of the C math library.
-	Windows version is retained in case Borland compilers require it, but
-	it is inactive. Thanks to Joe English. [Bug 474335, Patch 555635]
-
-	* unix/configure: regen
-
-2002-05-30  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: removed exprIsJustVarRef and
-	exprIsComparison from the ExprInfo and CompileEnv structs. These

-
-2002-05-30  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (TclGlob): fix to longstanding 'knownBug' in
-	fileName tests 15.2-15.4, and fix to a new Tcl 8.4 bug in certain uses
-	of 'glob -tails'.
-	* tests/fileName.test: removed 'knownBug' flag from some tests, added
-	some new tests for above bugs.
-
-2002-05-29  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/configure: regen'ed
-	* unix/configure.in: replaced bigendian check with autoconf standard
-	AC_C_BIG_ENDIAN, which defined WORDS_BIGENDIAN on bigendian systems.
-	* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharNcmp):
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclUniCharNcmp): use WORDS_BIGENDIAN instead of
-	TCL_OPTIMIZE_UNICODE_COMPARE to enable memcmp alternative.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode INST_STR_CMP):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): changed the case for choosing
-	the Tcl_UniCharNcmp compare to when both objs are of StringType, as
-	benchmarks show that is the optimal check (both bigendian and
-	littleendian systems).
-
-2002-05-29  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c: Removed "dummy" reference to Tcl_LinkVar. It is
-	no longer needed since Tcl_Main() now actually calls Tcl_LinkVar().
-	Thanks to Joe English for pointing that out.
-
-2002-05-29  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Use the macro version.
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclUniCharNcmp): Optimised still further with a
-	macro for use in sensitive places like tclExecute.c
-
-	* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharNcmp): Use new flag to figure out when
-	we can use an optimal comparison scheme, and default to the old scheme
-	in other cases which is at least safe.
-	* unix/configure.in (TCL_OPTIMIZE_UNICODE_COMPARE): New optional flag
-	that indicates when we can use memcmp() to compare Unicode strings
-	(i.e. when the high-byte of a Tcl_UniChar precedes the low-byte.)
-
-2002-05-29  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* generic/tclUtf.c: added TclpUtfNcmp2 private command that
-	mirrors Tcl_UtfNcmp, but takes n in bytes, not utf-8 chars. This
-	provides a faster alternative for comparing utf strings	internally.
-	(Tcl_UniCharNcmp, Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp): removed the explicit end of
-	string check as it wasn't correct for the function (by doc and logic).
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): reworked the string equal
-	comparison code to use TclpUtfNcmp2 as well as short-circuit for
-	equal objects or unequal length strings in the equal case.
-	Removed the use of goto and streamlined the other parts.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): added check for object
-	equality in the comparison instructions. Added short-circuit for !=
-	length strings in INST_EQ, INST_NEQ and INST_STR_CMP. Reworked
-	INST_STR_CMP to use TclpUtfNcmp2 where appropriate, and only use
-	Tcl_UniCharNcmp when at least one of the objects is a Unicode obj with
-	no utf bytes.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): removed error creation
-	in code that no longer throws an error.
-
-	* tests/string.test:
-	* tests/stringComp.test: added more string comparison checks.
-
-	* tests/clock.test: better qualified 9.1 constraint check for %s.
-
-2002-05-28  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (TclpRealloc, TclpFree): protect
-	against the case when NULL is based.
-
-	* tests/clock.test: added clock-9.1
-	* compat/strftime.c:
-	* generic/tclClock.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c: fix for Windows msvcrt mem leak caused by using
-	an env(TZ) setting trick for in clock format -gmt 1. This also makes
-	%s seem to work correctly with -gmt 1 as well as making it a lot
-	faster by avoid the env(TZ) hack. TclpStrftime now takes useGMT as an
-	arg. [Bug 559376]
-
-2002-05-28  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fixes to Tcl_FSLoadFile when called on a file
-	inside a vfs. This should avoid leaving temporary files sitting
-	around on exit. [Bug 545579]
-
-2002-05-27  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* win/tclWinError.c: Added comment on conversion of
-	ERROR_NEGATIVE_SEEK because that is a mapping that really belongs,
-	and not a catch-all case.
-	* win/tclWinPort.h (EOVERFLOW): Should be either EFBIG or EINVAL
-	* generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_ErrnoId, Tcl_ErrnoMsg): EOVERFLOW can
-	potentially be a synonym for EINVAL.
-
-2002-05-24  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	=== Changes due to TIP#91 ===
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: Added declaration of EOVERFLOW.
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3: Added documentation of wideSeekProc.
-	* generic/tclIOGT.c (TransformSeekProc, TransformWideSeekProc):
-	Adapted to use the new channel mechanism.
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileSeekProc, FileWideSeekProc): Renamed
-	FileSeekProc to FileWideSeekProc and created new FileSeekProc which
-	has the old-style interface and which errors out with EOVERFLOW when
-	the returned file position can't fit into the return type (int for
-	historical reasons).
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (FileSeekProc, FileWideSeekProc): Renamed
-	FileSeekProc to FileWideSeekProc and created new FileSeekProc which
-	has the old-style interface and which errors out with EOVERFLOW when
-	the returned file position can't fit into the return type (int for
-	historical reasons).
-	* mac/tclMacChan.c (FileSeek): Reverted to old interface; Macs lack
-	large-file support because I can't see how to add it.
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek, Tcl_Tell): Given these functions
-	knowledge of the new arrangement of channel types.
-	(Tcl_ChannelVersion): Added recognition of new version code.
-	(HaveVersion): New function to do version checking.
-	(Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc, Tcl_ChannelFlushProc)
-	(Tcl_ChannelHandlerProc): Made these functions use HaveVersion for
-	ease of future maintainability.
-	(Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc): Obvious lookup function.
-	* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_ChannelType): New wideSeekProc field, and
-	seekProc type restored to old interpretation.
-	(TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_3): New channel version.
-
-2002-05-24  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test: Applied patch for [Bug 549617]. Patch and bug
-	report by Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>.
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (TcpWatchProc): Fixed [Bug 557878]. We are not
-	allowed to mess with the watch mask if the socket is a server socket.
-	I believe that the original reporter is George Peter Staplin.
-
-2002-05-21  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/configure.in: Invoke SC_ENABLE_SHARED before calling
-	SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS so that the SHARED_BUILD variable can be checked
-	inside SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Pass -non_shared instead of -shared
-	to ld when configured with --disable-shared under OSF. [Bug 540390]
-
-2002-05-20  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added prototype for TclpFilesystemPathType().
-	* mac/tclMacChan.c: use MSL provided creator type if available instead
-	of the default 'MPW '.
-
-2002-05-16  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/CrtObjCmd.3: Added Tcl_GetCommandFromObj, Tcl_GetCommandFullName
-	[Bugs 547987, 414921]
-
-2002-05-14  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtyOutputProc): #if/#endif-ed this function out
-	to stop compiler warnings. Also much general tidying of comments in
-	this file and removal of whitespace from blank lines.
-
-2002-05-13  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (SETBREAK): Solaris thinks ioctl() takes a signed
-	second argument, and Linux thinks ioctl() takes an unsigned second
-	argument. So need a longer definition of this macro to get neither to
-	spew warnings...
-
-2002-05-13  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: clean up all memory allocated by the filesystem,
-	via introduction of 'TclFinalizeFilesystem'.
-	Move TclFinalizeLoad into TclFinalizeFilesystem so we can be sure it
-	is called at just the right time.
-	Fix bad comment also. [Bug 555078 and 'fs' part of 543549]
-	* win/tclWinChan.c: fix comment referring to wrong function.
-
-2002-05-10  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/load.test:
-	* tests/safe.test:
-	* tests/tcltest.test: Corrected some list-quoting issues and other
-	matters that cause tests to fail when the patch includes special
-	characters. Report from Vince Darley. [Bug 554068]
-
-2002-05-08    David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* doc/file.n:
-	* tools/man2tcl.c:
-	* tools/man2help2.tcl:  Thanks to Peter Spjuth
-	<peter.spjuth@space.se>, again. My prior fix for single-quote macro
-	mis-understanding was wrong. Reverted to reimpliment the 'macro2' proc
-	which handles single-quote macros and restored file.n text arrangement
-	to avoid single-quotes on the first line. Sorry for all the confusion.
-
-2002-05-08  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tools/man2tcl.c:
-	* tools/man2help2.tcl: Proper source of macro error misunderstanding
-	single-quote as the leading macro command found and repaired.
-
-	* doc/file.n: Reverted to prior state before I messed with it.
-
-2002-05-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected [uplevel] quoting when
-	[source]-ing test script in subdirectories.
-	* tests/fileName.test:
-	* tests/load.test:
-	* tests/main.test:
-	* tests/tcltest.test:
-	* tests/unixInit.test: Fixes to test suite when there's a space in the
-	working path. Thanks to Kevin Kenny.
-
-2002-05-07  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	-- Changes from Peter Spjuth <peter.spjuth@space.se>
-	* tools/man2tcl.c: Increased line buffer size and a bail-out if that
-	should ever be over-run.
-	* tools/man2help.tcl: Include Courier New font in rtf header.
-	* tools/man2help2.tcl: Improved handling of CS/CE fields. Use Courier
-	New for code samples and indent better.
-
-	* doc/file.n:
-	* doc/TraceCmd.3:  winhelp conversion tools where understanding
-	a ' as the first character on a line to be an unknown macro.
-	Not knowing how to repair tools/man2tcl.c, I decided to rearrange
-	the text in the docs instead.
-
-2002-05-07  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: fix to similar segfault when using 'glob
-	-types nonsense -dir dirname -join * *'. [Bug 553320]
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: further documentation on vfs.
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:
-	* tests/pkgMkindex.test: Fix to testsuite bugs when running out of
-	directory whose name contains '{' or '['.
-
-2002-05-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/basic.test: Fix for [Bug 549607]
-	* tests/encoding.test: Fix for [Bug 549610]

-	contained spaces. Report & fix by Kevin Kenny.
-
-2002-05-02  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: fix to freeing a bad object (i.e. segfault)
-	when using 'glob -types nonsense -dir dirname'.
-	* generic/tclWinFile.c: fix to [Bug 551306], also wrapped some long
-	lines.
-	* tests/fileName.test: added several tests for the above bugs.
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: clarified documentation on refCount requirements
-	of the object returned by the path type function.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c: moved TclpFilesystemPathType to the platform-
-	specific directories, so we can add missing platform-specific
-	implementations. On Windows, 'file system' now returns useful results
-	like "native NTFS", "native FAT" for that system. Unix and MacOS still
-	only return "native".
-	* doc/file.n: clarified documentation.
-	* tests/winFile.test: test for 'file system' returning correct values.
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: test for 'file system' returning correct
-	values. Clean up after failed previous test run.
-
-2002-04-26  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tcl.m4: change HP-11 SHLIB_LD_LIBS from "" to ${LIBS} so that
-	the .sl knows its dependent libs.
-
-2002-04-26  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/obj.test (obj-11.[56]): Test conversion to boolean more
-	thoroughly.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (SetBooleanFromAny): Was not calling an integer
-	parsing function on native 64-bit platforms! [Bug 548686]
-
-2002-04-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: corrected TclRememberJoinableThread decl to use
-	VOID instead of void.
-	* generic/tclThreadJoin.c: noted that this code isn't needed on Unix.
-
-2002-04-23  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/exec.n:
-	* doc/tclvars.n: doc updates [Patch 509426] (gravereaux)
-
-2002-04-24  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* mac/tclMacResource.r: added check of TCLTK_NO_LIBRARY_TEXT_RESOURCES
-	#define to allow disabling the inclusion of the tcl library code in
-	the resource fork of Tcl executables and shared libraries.
-
-2002-04-23  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/TraceCmd.3: New file that documents Tcl_CommandTraceInfo,
-	Tcl_TraceCommand and Tcl_UntraceCommand [Bug 414927]
-
-2002-04-22  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclAlloc.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (new):
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
-	* win/Makefile.in:
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: added new threaded allocator contributed by AOL
-	that significantly reduces lock contention when multiple threads are
-	in use. Only Windows and Unix implementations are ready, and the
-	Windows one may need work. It is only used by default on Unix for now,
-	and requires that USE_THREAD_ALLOC be defined (--enable-threads on
-	Unix will define this).
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSRegister, Tcl_FSUnregister): corrected
-	calling of Tcl_ConditionWait to ensure that there would be a condition
-	to wait upon.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FileObjCmd): added cast in FILE_SIZE.
-
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoDeleteFile): check return of setattr API calls
-	in file deletion for correct Win32 API handling.
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: correct dependencies for shell, gdb, runtest
-	targets.
-
-	* doc/clock.n:
-	* compat/strftime.c (_fmt): change strftime to correctly handle
-	localized %c, %x and %X on Windows. Added some notes about how the
-	other values could be further localized.
-
-2002-04-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main):  Free the memory allocated for the
-	startup script path. [Bug 543549]
-
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:  [mcmax] wasn't using the caller's
-	namespace when determining the max translated length. Also made
-	revisions for better use of namespace variables and more efficient
-	[uplevel]s.
-
-	* doc/msgcat.n:
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:  Added [mcload] to the export list of
-	msgcat; bumped to 1.2.3. [Bug 544727]
-
-2002-04-20  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* mac/tclMacFCmd.c:
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c:
-	* mac/tclMacUtil.c: Modified TclpObjNormalizePath to be alias file
-	aware, and replaced various calls to FSpLocationFrom*Path by calls to
-	new alias file aware versions FSpLLocationFrom*Path. The alias file
-	aware routines don't resolve the last component of a path if it is an
-	alias. This allows [file copy/delete] etc. to act correctly on alias
-	files. (c.f. discussion in [Bug 511666])
-
-2002-04-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/lindex.test (lindex-3.7):

-
-2002-04-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* tests/info.test: [Bug 545325] info level didn't report namespace
-	eval, bug report by Richard Suchenwirth.
-
-2002-04-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/subst.n:  Clarified documentation on handling unusual return

-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SubstObj): More clarification for comment on

-
-	* tests/iogt.test: Revised to run tests in a namespace, rather than

-
-2002-04-06  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (Realpath): added a little extra code to
-	initialize a realpath arg when compiling in PURIFY mode in order to

-2002-04-05  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SubstObj):

-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd, TraceVarProc)
-	(TraceCommandProc, TclTraceCommandObjCmd):  corrected potential
-	double-free of traces on variables by flagging in Trace*Proc that it
-	will free the var in case the eval wants to delete the var trace as

-	the tools/ directory. This does not address the syntax errors in the
-	man files. Having the contents of tcl.hpj(.in) inside makefile.vc
-	allows for version numbers to be replaced with macros.
-
-	The new nmakehlp.c is built by rules.vc in preprocessing and removes
-	the need to use tricky shell syntax that wasn't compatible on Win9x
-	systems. Clean targets made Win9x complient. This is a first draft
-	repair for [Bug 533862].

-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  Keep the value of $::auto_path
-	unchanged, so that the tcltest package can test code that depends on
-	auto-loading. If a testing application needs $::auto_path pruned, it
-	should do that itself. [Bug 495726]
-	Improve the processing of the -constraints option to [test] so that

-	documentation of some aspects of the filesystem, particularly
-	'Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory' which now might match a single file/directory
-	only, and 'file normalize' which wasn't very clear before. Removed
-	inconsistency betweens docs and the Tcl_Filesystem structure. Also
-	fixed [Bug 523217] and corrected file normalization on Unix so that
-	it expands symbolic links. Added some new tests of the filesystem
-	code (in the new file 'fileSystem.test'), and some extra tests for
-	correct handling of symbolic links. Fix to [Bug 530960] which shows up
-	on Win98. Made comparison with ".com" case insensitive in tclWinPipe.c
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: But only between alpha releases
-	(users of the new Tcl_Filesystem lookup table in Tcl 8.4a4 need to
-	handle the new way in which Tcl may call Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory, and
-	'file normalize' on unix now behaves correctly). Only known impact is
-	with the 'tclvfs' extension.

-	* tests/socket.test (2.7): Accepted and applied patch for [Bug 523470]
-	provided by Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> to avoid timing
-	problems in that test.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel): Added code to regonize
-	"/dev/tty" (by name) and to not handle it as tty / serial line. This
-	is the controlling terminal and is special. Setting it into raw mode
-	as is done for other tty's is a bad idea. This is a hackish fix for
-	expect [Bug 520624]. The fix has limitation: Tcl_MakeFileChannel
-	handles tty's specially too, but is unable to recognize /dev/tty as it
-	only gets a file descriptor, and no name for it.

-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): removed extra obj allocation.

-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_SERIAL_PORT): added sys/modem.h check and defined
-	_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED for HP-11 to get updated header decls.

-
-	* generic/tclCmpCmds.c: (bugfix to the bugfix, hopefully the last)
-	Bugfix to the new [for] compiling code: was setting a exceptArray
-	parameter using another param which wasn't yet initialised, thus
-	filling it with noise.
-
-2002-02-25  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (TcpGetOptionProc): Changed to recognize the option

-	* generic/tclHash.c (AllocArrayEntry, AllocStringEntry):
-	Before invoking ckalloc when creating a Tcl_HashEntry,

-	--- TIP#76 CHANGES ---
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): Final-argument-less
-	[regsub] returns the modified string.
-	* doc/regsub.n: Updated docs.
-	* tests/regexp.test: Updated and added tests.
-
-	* compat/strtoll.c (strtoll):
-	* compat/strtoull.c (strtoull):
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: Const-ing 64-bit compatibility declarations. Note
-	that the return pointer is non-const because it is entirely legal for
-	the functions to be called from somewhere that owns the string being
-	passed. Fixes problem reported by Larry Virden.
-
-2002-02-21  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/mkd.bat (removed):
-	* win/coffbase.txt (new):
-	* win/makefile.bc:
-	* win/makefile.vc:  Changed the 'setup' target to stop using the
-	mkd.bat file and just make the directory right in the rule. Same
-	change to makefile.bc. Neither configure.in nor Makefile.in use it.
-
-	coffbase.txt will be the master list for our "prefered base addresses"
-	set by the linker. This should improve load-time (NT only) by avoiding
-	relocations. Submissions to the list by extension authors are
-	encouraged.
-
-	Added a 'tidy' target to compliment 'clean' and 'hose' to remove just
-	the outputs. Also removed the $(winlibs) macro as it wasn't being
-	used.
-
-	Stuff left to do:
-	1) get the winhelp target to stop building in the tools/ directory.
-	2) stop using rmd.bat
-	3) add more dependacy rules.
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c:  Reverted back to -r1.6, as the header file change
-	to tclPort.h won't allow for easy embedded support outside of the
-	source dist. Thanks to Don Porter for pointing this out to me.
-
-2002-02-21  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:  Added a new "loimpact" option that sets the
-	-ws:aggressive linker option. Off by default. It's said to keep the
-	heap use low at the expense of alloc speed.
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Changed #include "tcl.h" to be tclPort.h to remove
-	the raw windows.h include. tclPort.h brings in windows.h already and
-	lessens the precompiled-header mush and the randomly useless #pragma
-	comment (lib,...) references throughout the big windows.h tree (as
-	observed at high linker warning levels).
-
-2002-02-21  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Better guessing of LP64/ILP32 architecture, but now
-	sensitive to presence of (suitable) <limits.h>
-
-2002-02-20  Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls (Tcl_RegExpRange,Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct):
-	Overlooked a few source incompatibilities. Now using CONST84.
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs
-	* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_CmdObjTraceProc): silence warning from Sun
-	Workshop compiler.
-
-2002-02-20  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/buildall.vc.bat:
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc: General clean-ups. Added compiler and linker tests for
-	a) the pentium 0x0F errata, b) optimizing (not all have this), and c)
-	linker v6 section alignment confusion. All these are tested first to
-	make sure any D4002 or LNK1117 warnings aren't displayed. The pentium
-	0x0F errata is a recommended switch. The v5 linker's section alignment
-	default is 512, but the v6 linker was changed to 4096 in an attempt to
-	speed loading on Win98. I changed the default to always be 512 across
-	both linkers, unless linking statically, then 4096 is used for the
-	claimed speed effect. Using a 512 alignment saves 12k bytes of dead
-	space in the DLL.
-
-	Added IA64 B-stepping errata switch when the compiler supports it.
-
-	Added profiling to $(lflags) when requested and also removed the
-	explict -entry option as the default works fine as is.
-
-	Removed win/tclWinInit.c from the special case section to let it use
-	the common implicit rule as the $(EXTFLAGS) macro it had was never
-	referenced anywhere.
-
-2002-02-20  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added code to guess the correct settings for

-	us them, as can happen with extensions.
-
-2002-02-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/format.n: Updated docs to list the specification.
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Made behaviour on 64-bit
-	platforms correctly meet the specification, that %d works with the
-	native word-sized integer, instead of trying to guess (wrongly)
-	from the value being passed.

-
-	+----------------------+
-	| TIP #72 IMPLEMENTED. |
-	+----------------------+
-
-	There are a lot of changes from this TIP, so please see
-	http://purl.org/tcl/tip/72.html for discussion of
-	backward-compatibility issues, but the main ones modifications are in:
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: New types.
-	* generic/tcl.decls: New public functions.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: 64-bit aware bytecode engine.
-	* generic/tclBinary.c: 64-bit handling in [binary] command.
-	* generic/tclScan.c: 64-bit handling in [scan] command.
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: 64-bit handling in [file] and [format]
-	commands.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: New "wordSize" entry in ::tcl_platform.
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.)
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.)
-	* compat/strtoll.c, compat/strtoull.c: New support functions.
-	* unix/tcl.m4, unix/configure: 64-bit support and greatly enhanced
-	caching.
-
-	Most other changes, including all those in doc/* and test/* as well as
-	the majority in the platform directories, follow on from these.
-
-	Also coming out of the woodwork:
-	* generic/tclIndex.c: Better support for Cray PVP.
-	* win/tclWinMtherr.c: Better Borland support.
-
-	Note that, in a number of places through the Unix part of the platform
-	support, there are Tcl_Platform* references. These are expanded into
-	the correct way to call that particular underlying function, i.e. with
-	or without a '64' suffix, and should be used by people working on the
-	core in preference to the API functions they overlay so that the code
-	remains portable depending on the presence or absence of 64-bit
-	support on the underlying platform.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: Extracted from the TIP
-
-	SUMMARY OF INCOMPATIBILITIES AND FIXES
-	======================================
-
-	The behaviour of expressions containing constants that appear positive
-	but which have a negative internal representation will change, as
-	these will now usually be interpreted as wide integers. This is always
-	fixable by replacing the constant with int(constant).
-
-	Extensions creating new channel types will need to be altered as
-	different types are now in use in those areas. The change to the
-	declaration of Tcl_FSStat and Tcl_FSLstat (which are the new preferred
-	API in any case) are less serious as no non-alpha releases have been
-	made yet with those API functions.
-
-	Scripts that are lax about the use of the l modifier in format and
-	scan will probably need to be rewritten. This should be very uncommon
-	though as previously it had absolutely no effect.
-
-	Extensions that create new math functions that take more than one
-	argument will need to be recompiled (the size of Tcl_Value changes),
-	and functions that accept arguments of any type (TCL_EITHER) will need
-	to be rewritten to handle wide integer values. (I do not expect this
-	to affect many extensions at all.)
-
-2002-02-14  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Trivial fix for [Bug 517503], a
-	memory leak reported by Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>. The leak
-	happens if an error occurs for "set var [gets $chan]" and leak one
-	empty object.
-

-	* unix/tclMtherr.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:  Early stage of DJGPP support for building Tcl
-	on DOS. Dynamic loading isn't working, yet. Requires watt32 for the
-	TCP/IP stack. No autoconf, yet. Barely tested, but makes a working exe
-	that runs Tcl in protected-mode, flat memory. [exec] and pipes will
-	need the most work as multi-tasking on DOS has to be carefully.

-2002-02-06  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tests/scan.test:
-	* generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): corrected scan 0x... %x handling
-	that didn't accept the 0x as a prelude to a base 16 number. [Bug
-	495213]
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): made early check for
-	bad RE to stop checking further.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): added special case to search
-	for simple 'string map' style regsub calls. Delayed creation of
-	resultPtr object until an initial match is made, as the input string
-	object can then be reused for no matches.
-	(Tcl_StringObjCmd): optimization improvements to the STR_MAP
-	algorithm for zero-length and nocase cases.

-
-2002-02-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileOutputProc): Fixed [bug 465765] reported by
-	Dale Talcott <daletalcott@users.sourceforge.net>. Avoid writing
-	nothing into a file as STREAM based implementations will consider this
-	a EOF (if the file is a pipe). Not done in the generic layer as this
-	type of writing is actually useful to check the state of a socket.
-
-	* doc/open.n: Fixed [Bug 511540], added cross-reference to 'pid' as
-	the command to use to retrieve the pid of a command pipeline created
-	via 'open'.
-
-2002-02-01  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-
-	* tests/io.test: io-39.22 split into two tests, one platform

-	platform.
-

-	it only throws the error for runtime compile, in case the user
-	modifies 'string'.
-	(TclCompileRegexpCmd): first try at a byte-compiled regexp command. It
-	handles static strings and ^$ bounded static strings.
-	(TclCompileAppendCmd): made TclPushVarName call always use
-	TCL_CREATE_VAR as numWords is always > 2 at that point.

-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (WriteChars): Fix for [Bug 506297], reported by
-	Martin Forssen <ruric@users.sourceforge.net>. The encoding chosen in
-	the script exposing the bug writes out three intro characters when
-	TCL_ENCODING_START is set, but does not consume any input as
-	TCL_ENCODING_END is cleared. As some output was generated the
-	enclosing loop calls UtfToExternal again, again with START set. Three
-	more characters in the out and still no use of input ... To break this
-	infinite loop we remove TCL_ENCODING_START from the set of flags after
-	the first call (no condition is required, the later calls remove an
-	unset flag, which is a no-op). This causes the subsequent calls to
-	UtfToExternal to consume and convert the actual input.

-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Fixed [Bug 504642] as reported
-	by Brian Griffin <bgriffin@users.sourceforge.net>, using his
-	patch. Before the patch the generic I/O layer held an unannounced
-	reference to the interp result to store the read line into. This
-	unfortunately has disastrous results if the channel driver executes a
-	tcl script to perform its operation, this freeing the interp
-	result. In that case we are dereferencing essentially a dangling
-	reference. It is not truly dangling because the object is in the free
-	list, but this only causes us to smash the free list and have the
-	error occur later somewhere else. The patch simply creates a new
-	object for the line and later sets it into the interp result when we
-	are done with reading.

-
-	* doc/Tcl_Main.3:
-	* generic/tclMain.c:  Substantial rewrite and expanded documentation
-	of Tcl_Main to correct a number of bugs and flaws:
-
-	  - Interactive Tcl_Main can now enter a main loop, exit that loop and
-	    continue interactive operations. The loop may even exit in the
-	    midst of interactive command typing without loss of the partial
-	    command. [Bugs 486453, 474131]
-	  - Tcl_Main now gracefully handles deletion of its master
-	    interpreter.
-	  - Interactive Tcl_Main can now operate with non-blocking stdin
-	  - Interactive Tcl_Main can now detect EOF on stdin even in
-	    mid-command. [Bug 491341]
-	  - Added VFS-aware internal routines for managing the startup script
-	    selection.
-	  - Tcl variable 'tcl_interactive' is now linked to C variable 'tty'
-	    so that one can disable/enable interactive prompts at the script
-	    level when there is no startup script. This is meant for use by
-	    the test suite.
-	  - Consistent use of the Tcl libraries standard channels as returned
-	    by Tcl_GetStdChannel(); as opposed to the channels named 'stdin',
-	    'stdout', and 'stderr' in the master interp, which can be
-	    different or unavailable.
-	  - Tcl_Main now calls Tcl_Exit() if evaluation of [exit] in the
-	    master interpreter returns, assuring Tcl_Main does not return.
-	  - Documented Tcl_Main's absence from public stub table
-	  - Documented that Tcl_Main does not return.
-	  - Documented Tcl variables set by Tcl_Main.
-	  - All prompts are done from a single procedure, Prompt.
-	  - Use of Tcl_Obj-enabled interfaces everywhere.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls (TclGetStartupScriptPath,
-	(TclSetStartupScriptPath): New internal VFS-aware routines for
-	managing the startup script of Tcl_Main.
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: make genstubs
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestsetmainloopCmd,TestexitmainloopCmd,
-	(Tcltest_Init,TestinterpdeleteCmd):
-	* tests/main.test (new):  Added new file to test suite that thoroughly
-	tests generic/tclMain.c; added some new test commands for testing
-	Tcl_SetMainLoop().

-	happening by not trying to be so clever with cacheing; if nothing
-	untoward is happening anyway, the less efficient technique will
-	only add a few instruction cycles (one function call and a few

-	* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch):

-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): Added a guard for the

-	recently fixed by 2003-11-15 commit to regcomp.c by Pavel Goran. His
-	notes on the fix: This bug results from an error in code that splits
-	states into "progress" and "no-progress" ones. This error causes an
-	interesting situation with the precollected single-linked list of

-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestHashSystemHashCmd): Removed 'const' modifier
-	from hash type structure; it should be const and the hash code assumes
-	it behaves like const, but that's not how the API is defined. Like
-	this, we are following in the same footsteps as Tcl_RegisterObjType()

-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortInfo,etc): Reorganized so that SortInfo

-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (TclAppendLimitedToObj):	New internal
-	routine that supports truncated appends with optional ellipsis marking.
-	This single routine supports UTF-8-safe truncated appends needed in

-
-	Fixed [Bug 800106] in which 'glob' was incapable of merging the
-	results of a directory listing (real or virtual) and any virtual
-	filesystem mountpoints in that directory (the latter were ignored).
-	This meant boundaries between different filesystems were not seamless
-	(e.g. 'glob */*' across a filesystem boundary was wrong). Added new
-	entry to Tcl_GlobTypeData in a totally backwards compatible way. To
-	allow listing of mounts, registered filesystems must support the
-	'TCL_GLOB_TYPE_MOUNT' flag. If this is not supported (e.g. in tclvfs
-	1.2) then mounts will simply not be listed for that filesystem.
-
-	Fixed [Bug 749876] 'file writable/readable/etc' (NativeAccess) using
-	correct permission checking code for Windows NT/2000/XP where more
-	complex user-based security/access priveleges are available,
-	particularly on shared volumes. The performance impact of this extra
-	checking will need further investigation. Note: Win 95,98,ME have no
-	support for this.
-
-	Also made better use of normalized rather than translated paths in the
-	platform specific code.

-	access to Tcl_NumUtfChars for testing.
-	* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_NumUtfChars): Corrected string length

-	TIP#123 IMPLEMENTATION BASED ON WORK BY ARJEN MARKUS
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (INST_EXPON):		Implementation of
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (tclInstructionTable):	exponential operator.
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (operatorTable):
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c (ParseExponentialExpr, GetLexeme):
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode, ExponWide, ExponLong):
-	(IllegalExprOperandType):
-	* tests/expr.test:
-	* tests/compExpr-old.test:
-	* doc/expr.n:
-
-2003-09-10  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/opt/optparse.tcl:	Latest revisions caused [OptGuessType]
-	to guess "int" instead of "string" for empty strings. Missed the
-	required "-strict" option to [string is]. Thanks to Revar Desmera.
-	[Bug 803968]
-
-2003-09-08  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinLoad.c (TclpDlopen): Changed the error message for
-	ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND to be a bit more helpful in giving us clues.
-	"can't find specified procedure" means a function in the import table,
-	for implicit loading, couldn't be resolved and that's why the load
-	failed.
-
-2003-09-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/Tcl_Main.3:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:				Implementation of
-	* doc/source.n:					TIPs 137/151. Adds a
-	* doc/tclsh.1:					-encoding option to
-	* generic/tcl.decls:				the [source] command
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SourceObjCmd):	and a new C routine,
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSEvalFileEx):	Tcl_FSEvalFileEx(),
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main):			that provides C access
-	* mac/tclMacResource.c (Tcl_MacSourceObjCmd):	to the same function.
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test:				Also adds command line
-	* tests/main.test:	option handling in Tcl_Main() so that tclsh
-	* tests/source.test:	and other apps built on Tcl_Main() respect a
-	-encoding command line option before a script filename. Docs and tests
-	updated as well. [Patch 742683]
-	This is a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** only for those C programs
-	that embed Tcl, build on Tcl_Main(), and make use of Tcl_Main's former
-	ability to pass a leading "-encoding" option to interactive shell
-	operations.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:				Added internal stub
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl*StartupScript*):	table entries for two
-	new functions Tcl_SetStartupScript() and Tcl_GetStartupScript() that
-	set/get the path and encoding for the startup script to be evaluated
-	by either Tcl_Main() or Tk_Main(). Given public names in anticipation
-	of their exposure by a followup TIP.
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:		make genstubs
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-2003-09-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/SplitList.3:	Implementation of TIP 148.  Fixes [Bug 489537].
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Updated Tcl_ConvertCountedElement() to quote
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	the leading "#" character of all list elements
-	unless the TCL_DONT_QUOTE_HASH flag is passed in.
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c:	Updated Tcl_ConvertCountedElement() callers
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	to pass in the TCL_DONT_QUOTE_HASH flags
-	* generic/tclResult.c:	when appropriate.
-
-2003-08-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/return.n:	Updated [return] docs to cover new TIP 90 features.
-
-	* doc/break.n:		Added SEE ALSO references to return.n
-	* doc/continue.n:
-
-2003-09-01  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/Namespace.3: Basic documentation for the TIP#139 functions. This
-	will need improving, but the basic bits are there at least.
-
-2003-08-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/catch.n:	Updated [catch] docs to cover new TIP 90 features.
-
-2003-08-29  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	Corrected bug in TIP 90 implementation where
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test:	the default -errorcode NONE value was not
-	copied into the return options dictionary. This correction modified
-	one test result.
-
-2003-08-27  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* compat/strftime.c (_fmt): Removed syst array intializer that
-	couldn't take variables within it under the watcom compiler:
-	'Initializers must be constant'. I believe Borland has this strictness
-	as well. VC++ must be non-standard about this.
-
-	Changed Win32 platform #ifdef from 'WIN32' to '__WIN32__' as this is
-	the correct one to use across the Tcl sources. Even though we do force
-	it in tcl.h, the true parent one is __WIN32__.
-
-	Added missing CONST'ification usage to match prototype listed in
-	tclInt.decls.
-
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:  Added a block for OpenWatcom adjustments that
-	fixes 1) the same issue Mo did for MinGW lack of missing LPFN_*
-	typedefs in their WINE derived <winsock2.h> and 2) The need to be
-	strict about how the char type needs to be signed by default.
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:  Added OpenWatcom to the commentary about the
-	#ifdef HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS block.
-
-	* win/tclWinTime.c:  Changed use of '_timezone' to 'timezone' as this
-	difference is already adjusted for in tclWinPort.h. Removed
-	unreferenced posixEpoch file-scope global.
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (WinReadLinkDirectory): Fix for 'Initializers must
-	be constant' with the driveSpec array using OpenWatcom.
-
-2003-08-27  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	Corrected [Bug 411825] and other bugs in
-	TclNeedSpace() where non-breaking space (\u00A0) and backslash-escaped
-	spaces were handled incorrectly.
-	* tests/util.test:	Added new tests util-8.[2-6].
-
-2003-08-26  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added some support for the LCC-Win32 compiler.
-	Unfortunetly, this compiler has a bug in its preprocessor and can't
-	build Tcl even with this minor patch. Also added some support for the
-	OpenWatcom compiler. A new win/makefile.wc to follow soon.
-
-2003-08-25  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl (genStubs::makeDecl): A more subtle way of
-	generating stubbed declarations allows us to have declarations of a
-	function in multiple interfaces simultaneously.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls: Duplicated some namespace declarations from
-	tclInt.decls here, as mandated by TIP #139. This is OK since the
-	declarations match and will end up using the declarations in the
-	public code from now on because of #include ordering. Keeping the old
-	declarations in tclInt.decls; there's no need to gratuitously break
-	compatibility for those extensions which are already clients of the
-	namespace code.
-
-2003-08-23  Zoran Vasiljevic  <zoran@archiwrae.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
-	filesystem records [Bug 753315]. This also fixed the [Bug 788780]
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
-	filesystem records. [Bug 753315]
-
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
-	filesystem records. [Bug 753315]
-
-2003-08-19  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialErrorStr): Fixed a syntax error created in
-	the previous code cleanup.
-
-2003-08-19  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c: Adjusted commenting and spacing usage to follow
-	the principles of the Style Guide better.
-
-2003-08-18  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS): Use test instead of -eq, which does
-	not work. [Bug 781109]
-
-2003-08-13  Chengye Mao <chengye.geo@yahoo.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: fixed a bug in BuildCommandLine. This bug built a
-	command line with a missing space between tclpipe.dll and the
-	following arguments. It caused error in Windows 98 when exec
-	command.com (e.g. dir). [Bug 789040]
-
-2003-08-11  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	TIP #136 IMPLEMENTATION from Simon Geard <simon.geard@ntlworld.com>
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrepeatObjCmd): Adapted version of Simon's
-	* doc/lrepeat.n:			  patch, updated to the HEAD
-	* tests/lrepeat.test:			  and matching the core style.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (buildIntCmds):	Splice into core.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* doc/list.n:				Cross-reference.
-
-2003-08-06  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c: recognize amd64 and ia32_on_win64 cpus.
-
-2003-08-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:	Added escape so that non-Windows
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:	platforms do not try to use the
-	registry package. This can save a costly and pointless package search.
-	Bumped to 1.3.1. Thanks to Dave Bodenstab. [Bug 781609]
-
-2003-08-05  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_INVOKE, INST_EVAL, INST_PUSH_RESULT):
-	added a Tcl_ResetResult(interp) at each point where the interp's
-	result is pushed onto the stack, to avoid keeping an extra reference
-	that may cause costly Tcl_Obj duplication. Detected by Franco Violi,
-	analyzed by Peter Spjuth and Donal Fellows. [Bug 781585]
-
-2003-07-28  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* doc/Translate.3: better documentation of Tcl_TranslateFileName and
-	related functions. [Bug 775220]
-
-2003-07-24  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Revert change made on 2003-07-21 since it made the
-	sizeof(Tcl_Obj) different for regular vs mem debug builds.
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Define TclDecrRefCount in terms of
-	Tcl_DbDecrRefCount which removes one layer of inderection.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclDbInitNewObj, Tcl_DbIncrRefCount,
-	(Tcl_DbDecrRefCount, Tcl_DbIsShared): Define ThreadSpecificData that
-	contains a hashtable. The table is used to ensure that a Tcl_Obj is
-	only acted upon in the thread that allocated it. This checking code is
-	enabled only when mem debug and threads are enabled.
-
-2003-07-24  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/async.test:	Added several tests that demonstrate [Bug
-	* tests/basic.test:	489537], Tcl's longstanding failure to
-	* tests/dict.test:	properly quote any leading '#' character when
-	* tests/dstring.test:	generating the string rep of a list so that
-	* tests/list.test:	the comment-power of that character is hidden
-	* tests/parse.test:	from any [eval], in order to satisfy the
-	* tests/util.test:	documentation that [list] does [eval]-safe
-				quoting.
-
-2003-07-24  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* library/package.tcl: Fixed a typo that broke pkg_mkIndex -verbose.
-	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Added a test for [pkg_mkIndex -verbose].
-
-	* ChangeLog.2002 (new file):
-	* ChangeLog: broke changes from 2002 into ChangeLog.2002 to reduce
-	size of the main ChangeLog.
-
-2003-07-23  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: changes to html-tcl & html-tk targets for
-	compatibility with non-gnu makes.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: added macosx/README to dist target.
-
-2003-07-23  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinReg.c (OpenSubKey): Fixed bug 775976 which causes the
-	registry set command to fail when built with VC7.
-	* library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: Incremented the version to 1.1.2.
-
-2003-07-21  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Check that the thread incrementing or decrementing the ref count of a
-	Tcl_Obj is the thread that originally allocated the thread. This fail
-	fast behavior will catch programming errors that allow a single
-	Tcl_Obj to be accessed from multiple threads.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_Obj): Add allocThread member to Tcl_Obj. This
-	member records the thread id the Tcl_Obj was allocated. It is used to
-	check that any future ref count incr or decr is done from the same
-	thread that allocated the Tcl_Obj. This member is defined only when
-	threads and mem debug are enabled.
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclNewObj, TclDbNewObj, TclDecrRefCount):
-	Define TclNewObj and TclDbNewObj using TclDbInitNewObj when mem debug
-	is enabled. This fixes a problem where TclNewObj calls did not work
-	the same as TclDbNewObj when mem debug was enabled.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclDbInitNewObj, Tcl_DbIncrRefCount,
-	(Tcl_DbDecrRefCount): Add new helper to init Tcl_Obj members when mem
-	debug is enabled. Init the allocThread member in TclDbInitNewObj and
-	check it in Tcl_DbIncrRefCount and Tcl_DbDecrRefCount to make sure a
-	Tcl_Obj allocated in one thread is not being acted upon in another
-	thread.
-
-2003-07-21  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* test/cmdAH.test: ensure certain tests run in local filesystem. [Bug
-	748960]
-
-2003-07-18  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/Makefile: added option to allow installing manpages in
-	addition to default html help.
-
-2003-07-18  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/Utf.3: Tightened up documentation of Tcl_UtfNext and Tcl_UtfPrev
-	to better match the behaviour. [Bug 769895]
-
-2003-07-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: upped to http v2.4.4
-	* library/http/http.tcl: add support for user:pass info in URL.
-	* tests/http.test:       [Bug 759888] (shiobara)
-
-2003-07-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n:                Restored the [Eval] proc to replace
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  the [::puts] command when either the
-	-output or -error option for [test] is in use, in order to capture
-	data written to the output or error channels for comparison against
-	what is expected.  This is easier to document and agrees better with
-	most user expectations than the previous attempt to replace [puts]
-	only in the caller's namespace.  Documentation made more precise on
-	the subject.  [Bug 706359]
-
-	* doc/AddErrInfo.3:	Improved consistency of documentation by
-	* doc/CrtTrace.3:      	using "null" everywhere to refer to the
-	* doc/Encoding.3:      	character '\0', and using "NULL" everywhere
-	* doc/Eval.3:          	to refer to the value of a pointer that points
-	* doc/GetIndex.3:      	to nowhere. Also dropped references to ASCII
-	* doc/Hash.3:          	that are no longer true, and standardized on
-	* doc/LinkVar.3:       	the hyphenated spelling of "null-terminated".
-	* doc/Macintosh.3:
-	* doc/OpenFileChnl.3:
-	* doc/SetVar.3:
-	* doc/StringObj.3:
-	* doc/Utf.3:
-
-	* doc/CrtSlave.3 (Tcl_MakeSafe):  Removed warning about possible
-	deprecation (no TIP on that).
-
-2003-07-17  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: fix for compilation errors on platforms where
-	configure detects non-functional chflags(). [Bug 748946]
-
-	* macosx/Makefile: Rewrote buildsystem for Mac OS X framework build
-	to be purely make driven; in order to become independent of Apple's
-	closed-source IDE and build tool. The changes are intended to be
-	transparent to the Makefile user, all existing make targets and cmd
-	line variable overrides should continue to work. Changed build to only
-	include tcl specific html help in Tcl.framework, the tk specific html
-	help is now included in Tk.framework. Added var to allow overriding of
-	tclsh used during html help building (Landon Fuller).
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj:
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/jingham.pbxuser: Changed to purely call through to
-	the make driven buildsystem; Tcl.framework is no longer assembled by
-	ProjectBuilder.
-	Set default SYMROOT in target options to simplify setting up PB
-	(manually setting common build folder for tcl & tk no longer needed).
-
-	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: Added options to allow building only the
-	tcl or tk html help files; the default behaviour with none of the new
-	options is to build both, as before.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Added targets for building only the tcl or tk help
-
-	* macosx/README (new): Tcl specific excerpts of tk/macosx/README.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Updated reminder comment about editing
-	macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj when version number changes.
-
-2003-07-16  Mumit Khan  <khan@nanotech.wisc.edu>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c (SetFsPathFromAny): Add Cygwin specific code to
-	convert POSIX filename to native format.
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): And remove from here.
-	(TclDoGlob): Adjust for cygwin and append / for dirs instead of \
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjChdir): Use chdir on Cygwin.
-	[Patch 679315]
-
-2003-07-16  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* library/safe.tcl (FileInAccessPath): normalize paths before
-	comparison. [Bug 759607] (myers)
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (NotifierThreadProc): correct size of found and
-	word vars from int to long. [Bug 767578] (hgo)
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:       Add recognition of -DTCL_UTF_MAX=6 on the make
-	* generic/regcustom.h: line to support UCS-4 mode. No config arg at
-	this time, as it is not the recommended build mode.
-
-	* generic/tclPreserve.c: In Result and Preserve'd routines, do not
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:     assume that ckfree == free, as that is not
-	* generic/tclResult.c:   always true. [Bug 756791] (fuller)
-
-2003-07-16  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/CrtSlave.3 (Tcl_MakeSafe): Updated documentation to strongly
-	discourage use. IMHO code outside the core that uses this function is
-	a bug... [Bug 655300]
-
-2003-07-16  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_GlobObjCmd):	[Bug 771840]
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c (Tcl_FSConvertToPathType):[Bug 771947]
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetModeFromPermString):	[Bug 771949]
-	Silence compiler warnings about unreached lines.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (ProcessFlags):	Corrected broken call
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl:			to [lrange]. Bumped to
-	version 2.2.4. [Bug 772333]
-
-2003-07-15  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/dltest/pkga.c (Pkga_EqObjCmd): Fix typo that was causing a
-	crash in load.test.
-
-2003-07-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/array.n: Make sure docs are synched with the 8.4 release.
-
-2003-07-15  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/http.n:  Updated SYNOPSIS to match actual syntax of commands.
-	[Bug 756112]
-
-	* unix/dltest/pkga.c:	Updated to not use Tcl_UtfNcmp and counted
-	strings instead of strcmp (not defined in any #include'd header) and
-	presumed NULL-terminated strings.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIfCmd):  Prior fix of Bug 711371 on
-	2003-04-07 introduced a buffer overflow. Corrected. [Bug 771613]
-
-2003-07-15  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/rules.vc: Added a missing $(OPTDEFINES) which broke the build if
-	STATS=memdbg was specified.
-
-2003-07-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortCompare): Cleared up confusing error
-	message. [Bug 771539]
-
-2003-07-11  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/binary.test (binary-46.*): Tests to help enforce the current
-	behaviour.
-	* doc/binary.n: Documented that [binary format a] and [binary scan a]
-	do encoding conversion by dropping high bytes, unlike the rest of the
-	core. [Bug 735364]
-
-2003-07-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/package.tcl:  Corrected [pkg_mkIndex] bug reported on
-	comp.lang.tcl. The indexer was searching for newly indexed packages
-	instead of newly provided packages.
-
-2003-07-08  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: fix for five tests under win98 [Bug 767679]
-
-2003-07-07  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/array.n: add examples from Welton
-
-2003-06-23  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n: clarification of 'file tail' behaviour [Bug 737977]
-
-2003-07-04  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/expr.n: Tighten up the wording of some operations. [Bug 758488]
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: Made tests of [file mtime] work better on FAT
-	filesystems. [Patch 760768]  Also a little general cleanup.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Made [string map] accept
-	dictionaries for maps.  This is much trickier than it looks, since map
-	entry ordering is significant. [Bug 759936]
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd, TclArraySet): Made [array get]
-	and [array set] work with dictionaries, producing them and consuming
-	them. Note that for compatibility reasons, you will never get a dict
-	from feeding a string literal to [array set] since that alters the
-	trace behaviour of "multi-key" sets. [Bug 759935]
-
-2003-06-23  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c: fix to Window debug build compilation error.
-
-2003-06-27  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/init.test: Added [cleanupTests] to report results of tests
-	* tests/pkg.test:  that run in slave interps.  [Bugs 761334,761344]
-
-	* tests/http.test: Used more reliable path to find httpd script.

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: let TclExecuteObjvInternal call

-2003-05-23  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (tclCmdNameType):  Converted internal rep
-	management of the cmdName Tcl_ObjType the opposite way, to always use
-	the twoPtrValue instead of always using the otherValuePtr. Previous
-	fix on 2003-05-12 broke several extensions that wanted to poke around
-	with the twoPtrValue.ptr2 value of a cmdName Tcl_Obj, like TclBlend

-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: added missing references to new
-	source files tclPathObj.c and tclMacOSXFCmd.c.
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: fixed a problem that caused only the first
-	call to Tcl_MacOSXOpenVersionedBundleResources() for a given bundle
-	identifier to succeed. This caused the tcl runtime library not to be
-	found in all interps created after the inital one.
-
-2003-05-19  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@hippolyta>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c: Corrected a bug in conversion of non-ASCII
-	chars in the format string.
-
-2003-05-19  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: changed tclConfig.sh location in
-	versioned framework subdirectories to be identical to location in
-	framework toplevel; fixed stub library symbolic links to be tcl
-	version specific.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c: fixed typo.
-
-2003-05-18  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* compat/strftime.c:  Modified TclpStrftime to return its result in
-	* generic/tclClock.c: UTF-8 encoding, and removed the conversion from
-	* mac/tclMacTime.c:   system encoding to UTF-8 from [clock format].
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c: Needed to avoid double conversion of the
-	* win/tclWinTime.c:   timezone name on Windows systems. [Bug 624408]

-2003-05-16  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:  Applied TIP #130 which provides for

-
-2003-05-15  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): revert glob code to r1.44
-	as 2003-04-11 optimizations broke Windows98 glob'ing.
-
-	* doc/socket.n: nroff font handling correction
-
-	* library/encoding/gb2312-raw.enc (new): This is the original
-	gb2312.enc renamed to allow for it to still be used. This is needed by
-	Tk (unix) because X fonts with gb2312* charsets really do want the
-	original gb2312 encoding. [Bug 557030]
-
-2003-05-14  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Stop unwarranted demotion of

-
-2003-05-14  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* library/encoding/gb2312.enc: copy euc-cn.enc over original
-	gb2312.enc. gb2312.enc appeared to not work as expected, and most uses
-	of gb2312 really mean euc-cn (which may be the cause of the problem).
-	[Bug 557030]
-
-2003-05-14  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Implementation of TIP 118:
-
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c (TclFileAttrsCmd): return the list of attributes
-	that can be retrieved without error for a given file, instead of
-	aborting the whole command when any error occurs.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: added support for new file attributes and for
-	copying Mac OS X file attributes & resource fork during [file copy].
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: added declarations of new external commands
-	needed by new file attributes support in tclUnixFCmd.c.

-
-	* tests/macOSXFCmd.test (new): tests of macosx file attributes and of
-	preservation of attributes & resource fork during [file copy].
-
-	* tests/macFCmd.test: restore -readonly attribute of test dir, as
-	otherwise its removal can fail on unices supporting -readonly.

-2003-05-13  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclEnv.c: Another putenv() copy behavior problem repaired
-	when compiling on windows and using microsoft's runtime. [Bug 736421]

-
-2003-05-13  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: added extended version of the
-	Tcl_MacOSXOpenBundleResources() API taking an extra version number
-	argument: Tcl_MacOSXOpenVersionedBundleResources(). This is needed to
-	be able to access bundle resources in versioned frameworks such as Tcl
-	and Tk, otherwise if multiple versions were installed, only the latest
-	version's resources could be accessed. [Bug 736774]
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (Tcl_MacOSXGetLibraryPath): use new versioned
-	bundle resource API to get tcl runtime library for TCL_VERSION. [Bug
-	736774]
-
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: regen.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: worked around the issue of realpath() not
-	being thread-safe on Mac OS X by defining NO_REALPATH for threaded
-	builds on Mac OS X. [Bug 711232]
-
-2003-05-12  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: General clean-up of tests so that all
-	tcltest-specific commands are protected by constraints and all
-	platforms see the same number of tests. [Bug 736431]
-
-2003-05-12  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c: (AliasObjCmd):   Added refCounting of the words
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-33.1):      of the target of an interp
-	alias during its execution. Also added test. [Bug 730244]
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclInvokeObjectCommand):  objv[argc] is no
-	longer set to NULL (Tcl_CreateObjCommand docs already say that it
-	should not be accessed).
-
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test:  Forgot to import [temporaryDirectory].
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (tclCmdNameType):  Corrected variable use of the
-	otherValuePtr or the twoPtrValue.ptr1 fields to store a

-
-	* doc/Eval.3:  Corrected prototype for Tcl_GlobalEvalObj [Bug 727622].
-
-2003-05-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>

-
-2003-05-09  Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (TclFreeAllocCache): Fixed memory leak
-	caused by treating cachePtr as a TLS index. [Bug 731754]
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c (Tcl_AppInit): Fixed memory leaks caused by not
-	freeing the memory allocated by setargv and the async handler created
-	by Tcl_AppInit. An exit handler has been created that takes care of
-	both leaks. In addition, Tcl_AppInit now uses ckalloc instead of
-	Tcl_Alloc to allow for easier leak tracking and to be more consistent
-	with the rest of the Tcl core. [Bugs 733156, 733221]
-
-	* tools/encoding/txt2enc.c (main): Fixed memory leak caused by failing
-	to free the memory used by the toUnicode array of strings [Bug 733221]

-2003-05-09  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript):
-	* tests/compile.test (compile-3.5): corrected wrong test and
-	behaviour in the earlier fix for [Bug 705406]; Don Porter reported
-	this as [Bug 735055], and provided the solution.
-
-2003-05-09  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_ReturnObjCmd): The array of strings passed
-	to Tcl_GetIndexFromObj must be NULL terminated. [Bug 735186]
-	Thanks to Joe Mistachkin for spotting this.
-
-2003-05-07  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/trace.n: Fixed very strange language in the documentation for
-	'trace add execution'. [Bug 729821]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd): Made error message for 'trace
-	info' more consistent with documentation. [Bug 706961]
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictInfoCmd): Fixed memory leak caused by
-	confusion about string ownership.  [Bug 731706]
-
-2003-05-05  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:		Implementation of TIP 90, which
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:		extends the [catch] and [return]
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	commands to enable creation of a
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:		proc that is a replacement for
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		[return]. [Patch 531640]
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* generic/tclResult.c:
-	* tests/cmdAH.test:
-	* tests/cmdMZ.test:
-	* tests/error.test:

-
-2003-05-05  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_HideCommand): Fixed error message for
-	grammar and spelling.
-
-2003-04-28  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Updated to reflect the behaviour
-	with wide increments of the normal [incr] command.
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclIncrWideVar2 to internal stub table
-	and cleaned up.
-	* tests/incr.test (incr-3.*):
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclIncrWideVar2, TclPtrIncrWideVar):
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode):
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_IncrObjCmd): Make [incr] work when trying to
-	increment by wide values. [Bug 728838]
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Default mode of
-	operation of [switch] is exact matching. [Bug 727563]
-
-2003-04-25  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:  Tcl_EvalObjv() failed to honor the
-	TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL flag when resolving command names. Tcl_EvalEx passed a
-	string rep including leading whitespace and comments to
-	TclEvalObjvInternal().
-
-2003-04-25  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Applied SF patch #727271. This patch changes the
-	code to catch any errors returned by the windows functions handling
-	TLS ASAP instead of waiting to get some mysterious crash later on due
-	to bogus pointers. Patch provided by Joe Mistachkin.
-
-	This is a stop-gap measure to deal with the low number of ?TLS slots
-	provided by some of the variants of Windows (60-80).
-
-2003-04-24  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: fix to bug reported privately by Jeff where,
-	for example, 'glob -path {[tcl]} *' gets confused by the leading
-	special character (which is escaped internally), and instead lists
-	files in '/'. Bug only occurs on Windows where '\' is also a directory
-	separator.
-	* tests/fileName.test: added test for the above bug.
-
-2003-04-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* The changes below fix SF bugs [593810], and [718045].
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel): Invoke
-	TclpCutSockChannel and TclpSpliceSockChannel.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutSockChannel and
-	TclpSpliceSockChannel.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
-	Dummy functions, on unix the sockets are _not_ handled specially.
-
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel): New
-	functions to handle socket specific cut/splice operations: auto-init
-	of socket system for thread on splice, management of the module
-	internal per-thread list of sockets, management of association of
-	sockets with HWNDs for event notification.
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (NewSocketInfo): Extended initialization
-	assignments to cover all items of the structure. During debugging of
-	the new code mentioned above I found that two fileds could contain
-	bogus data.
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Added #undef HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS before
-	definition because when compiling in debug mode the compiler complains
-	about a redefinition, and this warning is also treated as an error.
-
-2003-04-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  When the return code of a test does
-	not meet expectations, report that as the reason for test failure, and
-	do not attempt to check the test result for correctness. [Bug 725253]
-
-2003-04-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInt.h (VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_CE): conditionally define.
-	* win/tclWinInit.c: recognize Windows CE as a Win platform. This just
-	recognizes CE - full support will come later.
-
-	* win/configure: regen
-	* win/configure.in (SHELL): force it to /bin/sh as autoconf 2.5x
-	uses /bin/bash, which can fail to find exes in the path (ie: lib).
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (ExprCallMathFunc): remove incorrect
-	extraneous cast from Tcl_WideAsDouble.
-
-2003-04-18  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/open.n:		Moved serial port options from [fconfigure] to
-	* doc/fconfigure.n:	[open] as it is up to the creator of a channel
-				to describe the channel's special config

-2003-04-16  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Made changes so that the "wideInt" Tcl_ObjType
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	is defined on all platforms, even those where
-	* generic/tclPort.h:	TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG is defined. Also made the
-	Tcl_Value struct have a wideValue field on all platforms. This is a
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG platforms
-	because that struct changes size. This is the same TIP 72
-	incompatibility that was seen on other platforms at the 8.4.0 release,
-	when this change should have happened as well. [Bug 713562]
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:  New internal macros TclGetWide() and
-	TclGetLongFromWide() to deal with both forms of the "wideInt"
-	Tcl_ObjType, so that conditional TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG code is confined
-	to the header file.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	Replaced most coding that was conditional
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:	on TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG with code that
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: works across platforms, sometimes using
-	* generic/tclTest.c:	the new macros above to do it.
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclVar.c:
-
-2003-04-17  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>

-	* doc/socket.n: Added a paragraph to remind people to specify their
-	encodings when using sockets. [Bug 630621]
-
-2003-04-16  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/CrtMathFnc.3: Functions also have to deal with wide ints, but

-
-2003-04-16  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: removed undesired 'static' for function which
-	is now shared (previously it was duplicated).
-
-2003-04-15  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/namespace.n: added example section "SCOPED SCRIPTS", supplied by
-	Kevin Kenny. [Bug 219183]
-
-2003-04-15  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* makefile.vc: Updated makefile.vc to conform with Mo DeJong's changes
-	to Makefile.in and tclWinPipe.c on 2003-04-14. Now passes TCL_PIPE_DLL
-	in place of TCL_DBGX.
-	* win/tclWinTime.c: Corrected use of types to make compilation
-	compatible with VC++5.
-
-2003-04-15  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: finished check-in from yesterday, removing
-	duplicate function definition.
-
-2003-04-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c:	Corrected compiler warnings.
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-
-2003-04-14  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Don't define TCL_DBGX symbol for every compile.
-	Instead, define TCL_PIPE_DLL only when compiling tclWinPipe.c. This
-	will break other build systems, so they will need to remove the
-	TCL_DBGX define and replace it with a define for TCL_PIPE_DLL.
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Remove PREFIX_IDENT and
-	DEBUG_IDENT from top of file. Use TCL_PIPE_DLL passed in from build
-	env instead of trying to construct the dll name from already defined
-	symbols. This approach is more flexible and better in the long run.
-
-2003-04-14  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: added conditionals to restore compilation on
-	VC++6, which was broken by recent changes.
-
-2003-04-14  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: overlooked one function which was
-	duplicated, so this is now shared between modules.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: allow this file to compile with VC++ 5.2 again
-	since Mingw build fixes broke that.
-
-2003-04-13  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Add check for FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS from winbase.h,
-	known to be a problem in VC++ 5.2. Define HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS if the
-	define does not exist.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Put declarations for FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS and
-	FINDEX_SEARCH_OPS inside a check for HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS so that
-	these are not declared twice. This fixes the Mingw build.
-	* win/tclWinTime.c: Rework the init of timeInfo so that the number or
-	initializers matches the declaration. This was broken under Mingw. Add
-	cast to avoid compile warning when calling the AccumulateSample
-	function.
-
-2003-04-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (GENERIC_OBJS): add missing tclPathObj.c
-
-2003-04-12  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/clock.n:
-	* generic/tclClock.c (Tcl_ClockObjCmd):

-	cases to avoid duplicates. [Bug 710310]
-	* tests/winTime.test:
-	* win/tclWinTest.c (TestwinclockCmd, TestwinsleepCmd):
-	* win/tclWinTime.c (Tcl_WinTime, UpdateTimeEachSecond,
-	(ResetCounterSamples, AccumulateSample, SAMPLES, TimeInfo): Made
-	substantial changes to the phase-locked loop (replaced an IIR filter
-	with an FIR one) in a quest for improved loop stability (Bug not
-	logged at SF, but cited in private communication from Jeff Hobbs).
-
-2003-04-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd,STR_IS_INT):  Corrected
-	inconsistent results of [string is integer] observed on systems where
-	sizeof(long) != sizeof(int). [Bug 718878]
-	* tests/string.test: Added tests for Bug 718878.
-	* doc/string.n: Clarified that [string is integer] accepts 32-bit
-	integers.
-
-2003-04-11  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (UpdateInterest): When dropping interest in
-	TCL_READABLE now dropping interest in TCL_EXCEPTION too. This fixes a
-	bug where Expect detects eof on a file prematurely on solaris 2.6 and
-	higher. A much more complete explanation is in the code itself (40
-	lines of comments for a one-line change :)
-
-2003-04-11  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: fix test suite problem if /home is a symlink. [Bug
-	703264]
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix bad error message with 'cd ""'. [Bug
-	704917]
-	* win/tclWinFile.c, win/tclWin32Dll.c:
-	* win/tclWinInt.h: allow Tcl to differentiate between reparse points
-	which are symlinks and mounted volumes, and correctly handle the
-	latter. This involves some elaborate code to find the actual drive
-	letter (if possible) corresponding to a mounted volume. [Bug 697862]
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: add constraints to stop tests running in
-	ordinary tcl interpreter. [Bug 705675]
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: (new file)
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: (new file)
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	Split path object handling out of the virtual filesystem layer, into
-	tclPathObj.c. This refactoring cleans up the internal filesystem code,
-	and will make any future optimisations and forthcoming better
-	thread-safety much easier.
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* tests/reg.test: added some 'knownBug' tests for problems in Tcl's
-	regexp code with the TCL_REG_CAN_MATCH flag (see Bug 703709). Code too
-	impenetrable to fix right now, but a fix is needed for tip113 to work
-	correctly.
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: added some filesystem optimisation to the 'glob'
-	implementation, and some new tests.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fix typo in comment
-
-	* tests/winFile.test:
-	* tests/ioUtil.test:
-	* tests/unixFCmd.test: renumbered tests with duplicate numbers. [Bug

-
-2003-04-08  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ErrorObjCmd): Strings are only empty if
-	they have zero length, not if their first byte is zero, so fix test
-	guarding Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo to take this into account. [Bug
-	reported by Don Porter; no bug-id.]
-
-2003-04-07  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIfCmd):  Corrected string limits of

-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceExecutionProc):  Added missing
-	Tcl_DiscardResult() call to avoid memory leak.

-	Miguel Sofer by private chat.
-
-2003-04-07  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>

-	Failed to fully initialise the Dict structure.
-	(DictIncrCmd): Moved valueAlreadyInDictionary label to stop compiler
-	complaints. [Bug 715751]
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Followed style in the rest of
-	the core by commenting out wide-specific operations on platforms where
-	wides are longs, and used longs more thoroughly than ints through
-	[dict incr] anyway to forestall further bugs.
-	* generic/tclObj.c: Made sure there's always a tclWideIntType
-	implementation available, not that it is always useful. [Bug 713562]
-
-2003-04-05  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: Removed commented out notes on declarations to

-2003-04-03  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure:

-	configure script.
-
-2003-04-03  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Don't subst MATH_LIBS, LIBS, and DL_LIBS
-	separately. Instead, just subst TCL_LIBS since it includes the
-	others.
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS, SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): Set and subst
-	TCL_LIBS in SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS instead of SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS. Don't subst
-	MATH_LIBS since it is now covered by TCL_LIBS.
-	* unix/tclConfig.sh.in: Use TCL_LIBS instead of DL_LIBS, LIBS, and
-	MATH_LIBS.

-2003-04-03  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2003-04-02  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Set stub lib flag based on new LIBFLAGSUFFIX
-	variable.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Set new LIBFLAGSUFFIX that works like
-	LIBSUFFIX, it is used when creating library names. The previous
-	implementation would generate -ltclstub85 instead of -ltclstub85s when
-	configured with --disable-shared.
-
-2003-04-02  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (TclSubstTokens):  Moved declaration of

-
-2003-04-01  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/README:  Direct [source] of *.test files is no longer
-	recommended. The tests/*.test files should only be evaluated under the
-	control of the [runAllTests] command in tests/all.tcl.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_RETURN):  Bytecompiled [return] failed to
-	reset iPtr->returnCode, causing tests parse-18.17 and parse-18.21 to
-	fail strangely.
-	* tests/parse.test (parse-18.21):  Corrected now functioning test.
-	Added further coverage tests.
-
-2003-03-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/parse.test (parse-18.*):  Coverage tests for the new

-
-2003-03-27  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Use -Wl,--export-dynamic instead of

-	* generic/tclParse.c (ParseTokens,Tcl_SubstObj,TclSubstTokens):
-	* tests/subst.test (2.4, 8.7, 8.8, 11.4, 11.5):
-	Substantial refactoring of Tcl_SubstObj to make use of the same
-	parsing and substitution procedures as normal script evaluation.
-	Tcl_SubstObj() moved to tclParse.c. New routine TclSubstTokens()
-	created in tclParse.c which implements all substantial functioning of
-	Tcl_EvalTokensStandard(). TclCompileScript() loses its "nested"
-	argument, the Tcl_Interp struct loses its termOffset field and the
-	TCL_BRACKET_TERM flag in the evalFlags field, all of which were only
-	used (indirectly) by Tcl_SubstObj(). Tests subst-8.7,8.8,11.4,11.5
-	modified to accommodate the only behavior change: reporting of parse
-	errors now takes precedence over [return] and [continue] exceptions.
-	All other behavior should remain compatible. [RFE 536831,684982] [Bug
-	685106]
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:        Removed TCL_PREFIX_IDENT and TCL_DEBUG_IDENT
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:     from tcl.h -- they are not part of Tcl's
-	public interface.  Put them in win/tclWinPipe.c where they are used.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_InterpObjCmd):       Corrected and added
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-2.13):              test for option

-
-2003-03-09  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2003-03-07  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/encoding.test: Name temp files *.tcltestout instead of *.out
-	so that when they are removed later, we don't accidently toast any
-	files named *.out that the user has created in the build directory.
-
-2003-03-07  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FileObjCmd): Fix the setting of a file's

-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>

-2003-03-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/TclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp):       Corrected failure to

-	different case in a case insensitive manner.  [Bug 699042]
-
-2003-03-06  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd):
-	Replaced a non-portable 'bzero' with a portable 'memset'. [Bug 698442]
-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek, Tcl_OutputBuffered): If there is data
-	buffered in the statePtr->curOutPtr member then set the BUFFER_READY
-	flag in Tcl_Seek. This is needed so that the next call to FlushChannel
-	will write any buffered bytes before doing the seek. The existing code
-	would set the BUFFER_READY flag inside the Tcl_OutputBuffered
-	function. This was a programming error made when Tcl_OutputBuffered
-	was originally created in CVS revision 1.35. The setting of the
-	BUFFER_READY flag should not have been included in the
-	Tcl_OutputBuffered function.
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): Use the Tcl_InputBuffered and
-	Tcl_OutputBuffered util methods to query the amount of buffered input
-	and output.
-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Flush): Compare the nextAdded member of the
-	ChannelBuffer to the nextRemoved member to determine if any output has
-	been buffered. The previous check against the value 0 seems to have
-	just been a coding error. See other methods like Tcl_OutputBuffered
-	for examples where nextAdded is compared to nextRemoved to find the
-	number of bytes buffered.
-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetsObj): Check that the eol pointer has not
-	gone past the end of the string when in auto translation mode and the
-	INPUT_SAW_CR flag is set. The previous code worked because the end of
-	string value \0 was being compared to \n, this patch just skips that
-	pointless check.
-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars, Tcl_GetsObj, ReadBytes):
-	Rework calls to TranslateOutputEOL to make it clear that a boolean
-	value is being returned. Add some comments in an effort to make the
-	code more clear. This patch makes no functional changes.
-
-2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): Invoke the
-	Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize method as a result of changing the
-	-buffersize option to fconfigure. The previous implementation used
-	some inlined code that reset the buffer size to the default size
-	instead of ignoring the request as implemented in
-	Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize.
-	* tests/io.test: Update test case so that it actually checks the
-	implementation of Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize.
-
-2003-03-05  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/rules.vc: updated default tcl version to 8.5.
-
-2003-03-05  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): First attempt at a
-	bytecode-compiled switch command. It only handles the most common case
-	of switching, but that should be enough for this to speed up a lot of
-	people's code. It is expected that the speed gains come from two
-	things: better handling of the switch itself, and integrated
-	compilation of the arms instead of embedding separate bytecode
-	sequences (i.e. better local variable handling.)
-	* tests/switch.test (switch-10.*): Tests of both uncompiled and
-	compiled switch behaviour. [Patch #644819]
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (TclFixupForwardJumpToHere): Additional macro
-	to make the most common kind of jump fixup a bit easier.

-	relinking but to use install_name_tool instead to change the
-	install_names for embedded frameworks. [Bug 644510]
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: preserve mod dates when running
-	'make install' to build framework (avoids bogus rebuilds of dependent

-	(Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath): Update string rep of path objects before
-	freeing the internal object. (darley)
-
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: added test 8.3
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath):
-	(UpdateStringOfFsPath): handle the cwdLen == 0 case

-	* win/configure:
-	* win/configure.in: Generate error when attempting to build under
-	Cygwin. The Cygwin port of Tcl/Tk does not build and people are filing
-	bug reports under the mistaken impression that someone is actually
-	maintaining the Cygwin port. A post to comp.lang.tcl asking someone to
-	volunteer as an area maintainer has generated no results. Closing bugs
-	680840, 630199, and 634772 and marking as "Won't fix".

-	    foreach f $flist { if {[file exists $f]} {file stat $f arr;...}}
-	    foreach f [glob -dir $dir *] { # action and/or recursion on $f }

-
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c: cleanup long lines
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: sped up pure 'glob' by a factor of 2.5
-	('foreach f [glob *] { file exists $f }' is still slow)
-	* tests/fileSystem.text:
-	* tests/fileName.test: added new tests to ensure correct behaviour in

-
-2003-02-07  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* tests/fileSystem.text: fixed test 7.2 to avoid a possible crash, and
-	not change the pwd.
-

-2003-02-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIncrCmd):
-	* tests/incr.test: Don't include the text "(increment expression)" in
-	the errorInfo generated by the compiled version of the incr command
-	since it does not match the message generated by the non-compiled
-	version of incr. It is also not possible to match this error output
-	under Jacl, which does not support a compiler.
-
-2003-02-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): When an error is
-	encountered reading the increment value during a compiled call to
-	incr, add a "(reading increment)" error string to the errorInfo
-	variable. This makes the errorInfo variable set by the compiled incr
-	command match the value set by the non-compiled version.
-	* tests/incr-old.test: Change errorInfo result for the compiled incr
-	command case to match the modified implementation.
-	* tests/incr.test: Add tests to make sure the compiled and
-	non-compiled errorInfo messages are the same.
-
-2003-02-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-	callbacks get fully qualified names of the command. [Bug 651271].
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	* tests/trace.test: Modified the test cases for [trace add command] to
-	expect fully qualified names on the 'rename' callbacks. Added a case
-	for renaming a proc within a namespace.
-	* doc/trace.n: Added language about use of fully qualified names in
-	trace callbacks.

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: Removed an unused variable that caused
-	compiler warnings on SGI. [Bug 664379]
-
-	* generic/tclLoad.c: Changed the code so that if Tcl_StaticPackage is
-	called to report the same package as being loaded in two interps, it
-	shows up in [info loaded {}] in both of them (previously, it didn't
-	appear in the static package list in the second).
-
-	* tests/load.test Added regression test for the above bug. [Bug
-	670042]
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: Fixed a bug that incorrectly allowed [clock
-	clicks {}] and [clock clicks -] to be accepted as if they were [clock
-	clicks -milliseconds].
-
-	* tests/clock.test: Added regression tests for the above bug. [Bug
-	675356]
-
-	* tests/unixNotfy.test: Added cleanup of working files. [Bug 675609]
-
-	* doc/Tcl.n: Added headings to the eleven paragraphs, to improve
-	formatting in the tools that attempt to extract tables of contents
-	from the manual pages. [Bug 627455]
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: Expanded mutex protection around the setting of

-
-2003-01-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test: Cleaned up management of file/directory
-	creation/deletion to improve "-debug 1" output. [Bug 675614]
-	The utility [slave] command failed to properly [list]-quote a
-	constructed [open] command, causing failure when the pathname
-	contained whitespace. [Bug 678415]

-
-2003-01-28  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-	674387]
-
-2003-01-28  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to setting modification date in
-	TclCrossFilesystemCopy. Also added 'panic' in
-	Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath under illegal calling circumstances which
-	lead to hard-to-track-down bugs.
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c: added test suite code to allow exercising a
-	vfs-crash-on-exit bug in Tcl's finalization caused by the encodings
-	being cleaned up before unloading occurs.
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: added new 'knownBug' test 7.1 to demonstrate
-	the crash on exit.
-
-2003-01-28  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Add TCL_PREFIX_IDENT and TCL_DEBUG_IDENT, used only
-	by TclpCreateProcess.
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Define TCL_DBGX.
-	* win/Makefile.in: Define TCL_DBGX.
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Check that the Tcl pipe dll
-	actually exists in the Tcl bin directory and panic if it is not found.
-	Incorporate TCL_DBGX into the Tcl pipe dll name. This fixes a really
-	mysterious error that would show up when exec'ing a 16 bit application
-	under Win95 or Win98 when Tcl was compiled with symbols. The error
-	seemed to indicate that the executable could not be found, but it was
-	actually the Tcl pipe dll that could not be found.
-
-2003-01-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/README: Update msys+mingw URL to release 6. This version bundles

-
-2003-01-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.

-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpOpenFileChannel,
-	(Tcl_MakeFileChannel, TclpCutFileChannel, TclpSpliceFileChannel):
-	Implement thread load data cut and splice for file channels. This
-	avoids an invalid memory ref when compiled with -DDEPRECATED.
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpCutFileChannel,
-	(TclpSpliceFileChannel): Implement thread load data cut and splice for

-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace, squelch_warnings):
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel, squelch_warnings):
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, DoCopyFile, squelch_warnings):
-	Re-implement inline ASM SEH handlers for gcc. The esp and ebp
-	registers are now saved on the stack instead of in global variables so
-	that the code is thread safe. Add additional checks when TCL_MEM_DEBUG
-	is defined to be sure the values were recovered from the stack
-	properly. Remove squelch_warnings functions and add a dummy call in
-	the handler methods to squelch compiler warnings.
-
-2003-01-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure:
-	* win/configure.in: Define HAVE_ALLOCA_GCC_INLINE when we detect that
-	no alloca function is found in malloc.h and we are compiling with GCC.
-	Remove HAVE_NO_ALLOC_DECL define.
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): Don't define alloca as a
-	cdecl function. Doing this caused a tricky runtime bug because the
-	_alloca function expects the size argument to be passed in a register
-	and not on the stack. To fix this problem, we use inline ASM when
-	compiling with gcc to invoke _alloca with the size argument loaded
-	into a register.
-
-2003-01-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinDde.c (Dde_Init): clarified use of tsdPtr.
-	(DdeServerProc): better refcount handling of returnPackagePtr.
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): revert finalize change on
-	2002-12-04 to correct the issue with extensions that have TSD needing
-	to finalize that before they are unloaded. This issue needs further
-	clarification.
-
-	* tests/unixFCmd.test: only do groups check on unix
-
-2003-01-24  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: proper fixes for Tcl_SetObjLength and
-	Tcl_AttemptSetObjectLength dealing with string objects with both
-	pure-unicode and normal internal representations. Previous fix didn't
-	handle all cases correctly.
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Add 'Tcl_GetString()' to ensure the object has a
-	valid 'objPtr->bytes' field before manipulating it directly.
-
-	This fixes [Bug 635200] and [Bug 671138], but may reduce performance
-	of Unicode string handling in some cases. A further patch will be
-	applied to address this, once the code is known to be correct.
-
-2003-01-24  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Add test to see if alloca is undefined in
-	malloc.h.
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): Rework the SEH exception
-	handler logic to avoid using the stack since alloca will modify the
-	stack. This was causing a nasty bug that would set the exception
-	handler to 0 because it tried to pop the previous exception handler
-	off the top of the stack.
-
-2003-01-23  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/lset.n: Fixed fault in return values from lset in documentation
-	examples [SF Bug #658463] and tidied up a bit at the same time.
-
-2003-01-21  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>

-	[Patch 670110]
-
-2003-01-21  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Set SHLIB_SUFFIX so that
-	TCL_SHLIB_SUFFIX will be set to a useful value in the generated
-	tclConfig.sh. Set SHLIB_LD_LIBS to "" or '${LIBS}' based on the
-	--enable-shared flag. This matches the UNIX implementation.
-
-2003-01-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: change %ud to %u as appropriate.
-
-2003-01-17  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2003-01-17  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Revert earlier change that defined TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE
-	as long long and TCL_LL_MODIFIER as L when compiling with mingw. This
-	change ended up causing some test case failures when compiling with
-	mingw.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (UpdateStringOfWideInt): Describe the warning
-	generated by mingw and why it needs to be ignored so that someone is
-	not tempted to "fix" this problem again in the future.
-
-2003-01-16  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: Tcl_SetObjLength fix for when the object has
-	a unicode string rep. [Bug 635200]
-	* tests/stringObj.test: removed 'knownBug' constraint from test 14.1
-	now that this bug is fixed.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.z:
-	* tests/trace.test: execution and command tracing bug fixes and
-	cleanup. In particular fixed [Bug 655645], [Bug 615043], [Bug 571385]
-	  - fixed some subtle cleanup problems with tracing. This required
-	    replacing Tcl_Preserve/Tcl_Release with a more robust refCount
-	    approach. Solves at least one known crash caused by memory
-	    corruption.
-	  - fixed some confusion in the code between new style traces (Tcl
-	    8.4) and the very limited 'Tcl_CreateTrace' which existed before.
-	  - made behaviour consistent with documentation (several tests even
-	    contradicted the documentation before).
-	  - fixed some minor error message details
-	  - added a number of new tests
-
-2003-01-16  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-	allow strict compilation (no warnings).
-
-	* tests/winDde.test:

-2003-01-13  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Fix mingw build problems and compiler warnings.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Add if defined(__MINGW32__) check to code that sets

-	savedTZEnv if we are not going to use them.
-	* generic/tclEnv.c: Add cast to avoid warning.
-	* win/tclWinChan.c: Use DWORD instead of int to avoid compiler warning
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Only define allocLock, allocLockPtr, and dataKey
-	when TCL_THREADS is defined. This avoid a compiler warning about
-	unused variables.
-
-2003-01-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* win/configure: Regen.

-	the Tcl version.
-
-2003-01-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Skip Tcl's define of CHAR, SHORT, and LONG when
-	HAVE_WINNT_IGNORE_VOID is defined. This avoids a bunch of compiler
-	warnings when building with Cygwin or Mingw.
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Define HAVE_WINNT_IGNORE_VOID when we detect a
-	winnt.h that still defines CHAR, SHORT, and LONG when VOID has already
-	been defined.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): Subst the TCL_DEFS loaded from
-	tclConfig.sh so that Tcl defines can make it into the Tk Makefile.
-
-2003-01-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-	* win/configure.in: Check for typedefs like LPFN_ACCEPT in winsock2.h
-	and define HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS if not found.
-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Define LPFN_* typedefs if HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS is
-	defined. This fixes the build under Mingw and Cygwin, it was broken by
-	the changes made on 2002-11-26.

-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd):
-	* tests/compile.test:	Corrects failure of bytecompiled [catch
-	{return}] to have result TCL_RETURN (not TCL_OK) [Bug 633204]. This
-	patch is a workaround for 8.4.X. A new opcode INST_RETURN is a better
-	long term solution for 8.5 and later.
-
-2003-01-04  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:  Fixed INSTALLDIR macro problem that blanked itself by
-	accident causing the install target to put the tree at the root of the
-	drive built on. Whoops..
-
-	Renamed the 'linkexten' option to be 'staticpkg'. Added 'thrdalloc' to
-	allow the switching _on_ of the thread allocator. Under testing, I
-	found it not to be benificial under windows for the purpose of the
-	application I was using it for. It was more important for this app
-	that resources for tcl threads be returned to the system rather than
-	saved/moved to the global recycler. Be extra clean or extra fast for
-	the default threaded build? Let's move to clean and allow it to be
-	switched on for users who find it benificial for their use of threads.

-	binary and remove -YX for MSVC7 portability. Add -fomit-frame-pointer
-	for gcc OPT compiles. [Bug 1092952, 1091967] Align LIBS_GUI with Tk
-	head needs.

-2004-12-29  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclDate.c: Regen
-	* generic/tclGetDate.y (TclDatelex): Fixed a problem where a
-	four-digit group with >=2 leading zeroes appeared to be a two-digit
-	group, leading to misinterpreting the time 0012 as 1200. [Bug 1090413]
-	* library/clock.tcl: Added code to interpret correctly months outside
-	the range 01-12 as reduced modulo 12 with a corresponding adjustment
-	to the year. [Bug 1092789]
-	* tests/clock.test: Added regression test cases for the above two bugs
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Added --no-lines to the 'bison' command line to
-	* win/Makefile.in: help constrain the number of diffs in a cvs checkin

-2004-12-20  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: moved TclInitCompiledLocals to tclProc.c
-	* generic/tclProc.c: new static InitCompiledLocals to allow for a
-	single pass over the proc's arguments at proc load time (instead of
-	two as previously). TclObjInterpProc() now allocates the
-	compiledLocals on the tcl execution stack, using the new
-	TclStackAlloc/Free functions.

-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_LimitSetTime, TimeLimitCallback):
-	(TclLimitRemoveAllHandlers, TclInitLimitSupport): Set a timer event to
-	trigger when the time limit runs out. All the time limit actually does
-	is check to see if the time limit has been exceeded, but this is
-	enough to fix [Bug 1085023].
-	* generic/tclInt.h (struct Interp): Added a field to hold the token
-	for the timer event handler associated with the current time limit.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_UpdateObjCmd, Tcl_VwaitObjCmd): Add error
-	message when limit exceeded.
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-34.[89]): Check that time limits handle
-	the two cases reported in [Bug 1085023]
-
-	* generic/tclTimer.c (TclCreateAbsoluteTimerHandler): New internal
-	function that allows setting a timer handler that will be triggered at
-	(or after) a specific time instead of at some number of milliseconds
-	in the future. This is a candidate for future exposure via a TIP.

-	TclPushStackFrame and TclPopStackFrame that do the work of
-	Tcl_PushCallFrame and Tcl_PopCallFrame, but using frames allocated in
-	the execution stack - i.e., heap instead of C-stack. The core uses

-2004-12-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c:	Different fix for [Bug 1077005].
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:	Broke apart TclpSetInitialEncodings() on
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Windows into TclpSetInterfaces(), that is
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:	fundamentally essential, and the initialization
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	of the system encoding, which is not. Made
-	the TclpSetInterfaces call part of TclInitSubsystems so it cannot be
-	overlooked.
-
-2004-12-03  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* changes: updated for 8.5a2 release
-
-2004-12-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclSetProcessGlobalValue): Handle the case where
-	a ProcessGlobalValue might be assigned to itself.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (MakeFileMap): Correct refcounting errors
-	managing values returned by TclPathPart (with refCount of 1!) that led
-	to a memory leak. [Bug 1077474].
-
-2004-12-02  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:  fix and new tests for [Bug 1074671] to ensure
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: tilde paths are not returned specially by
-	'glob'.
-
-2004-12-02  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Added a 'sed' in the setting of ROOT_DIR_NATIVE to
-	compensate for a bug in cygpath (at least version 1.36) that leaves a
-	trailing backslash on the end of the converted path.
-
-2004-12-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Alias,Target,Master): Rewrote these so that the
-	aliases that refer to an interpreter are stored in a list and not a
-	hashtable (which was only ever a convenience, and forced the use of a
-	global mutex to generate keys!) [FRQ 1077210]
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (numNsCreated): Moved into thread-local storage
-	to remove a global mutex. [FRQ 1077210]
-
-2004-12-01  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetProcessGlobalValue): Narrowed the scope of
-	mutex locks.
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:		Updated Tcl_GetNameOfExecutable() to
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c:	make use of a ProcessGlobalValue for
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:		storing the executable name. Added
-	internal routines Tcl(Get|Set)ObjNameOfExecutable() to access that
-	storage in Tcl_Obj, rather than string format.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:	Rewrote TclpFindExecutable() to use
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:	TclSetObjNameOfExecutable to store the
-	executable name it computes.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Added internal stub entries for
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: TclpFindExecutable and
-	Tcl(Get|Set)ObjNameOfExecutable.
-
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: make genstubs
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:	Retrieve executable name in Tcl_Obj form
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:	instead of string form.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c:	Update [testfindexecutable] command to use new
-	internal interfaces.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c:	Moved TclpSetInitialEncodings() call
-	from Tcl_FindExecutable() into TclInitEncodingSubsystem(). This is
-	important on Windows where it establishes whether the "ascii" or
-	"unicode" set of system routines will be used, and that needs to be
-	done earlier to support filesystem operations. [Bug 1077005]
-
-2004-12-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/winDde.test: Rewritten to use tcltest2 features more
-	thoroughly (reducing the [catch] count!) and fix the problem with
-	winDde-6.1 being out of synch with the implementation.
-
-2004-11-30  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/init.tcl ([unknown]): Restored the save/restore of the
-	variables ::errorCode and ::errorInfo. This is needed when the
-	[::bgerror] command is auto-loaded (as it is by Tk).
-
-	Patch 976520 reworks several of the details involved with
-	startup/initialization of the Tcl library, focused on the activities
-	of Tcl_FindExecutable().
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:	Removed bogus claim in comment that encoding
-	"iso8859-1" is "built-in" to Tcl.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Created a new struct ProcessGlobalValue,
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	routines Tcl(Get|Set)ProcessGlobalValue, and
-	function type TclInitProcessGlobalValueProc. Together, these take care
-	of the housekeeping for "values" (things that can be held in a
-	Tcl_Obj) that are global across a whole process. That is, they are
-	shared among multiple threads, and epoch and mutex protection must
-	govern the validity of cached copies maintained in each thread.
-
-	* generic/tclNotify.c:	Modified TclInitNotifier() to tolerate being
-	called multiple times in the same thread.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:	Dropped the unused argv0 argument to
-	TclInitSubsystems(). Removed machinery to unsure only one
-	TclInitNotifier() call per thread, now that that is safe. Converted
-	Tcl(Get|Set)LibraryPath to use a ProcessGlobalValue, and moved them to
-	tclEncoding.c.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Updated caller.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	TclpFindExecutable now returns void.
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Built new encoding search initialization on a
-	foundation of ProcessGlobalValues, exposing new routines
-	Tcl(Get|Set)EncodingSearchPath. A cache of a map from encoding name to
-	directory pathname keeps track of where encodings are available for
-	loading. Tcl_FindExecutable greatly simplified into just three
-	function calls. The "library path" is now misnamed, as its only
-	remaining purpose is as a foundation for the default encoding search
-	path.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Inlined the initScript that is evaluated by
-	Tcl_Init(). Added verification after initScript evaluation that Tcl
-	can find its installed *.enc files, and that it has initialized
-	[encoding system] in agreement with what the environment expects.
-	[tclInit] no longer driven by the value of $::tcl_libPath; it largely
-	constructs its own search path now, rather than attempt to share one
-	with the encoding system.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:	TclpSetInitialEncodings factored so that a new
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	routine TclpGetEncodingNameFromEnvironment can
-	reveal that Tcl thinks the [encoding system] should be, even when an
-	incomplete encoding search path, or a missing *.enc file won't allow
-	that initialization to succeed. TclpInitLibraryPath reworked as an
-	initializer of a ProcessGlobalValue.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c:	Update implementations of [testfindexecutable],
-	[testgetdefenc], and [testsetdefenc].
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	Corrected tests to operate properly even when
-	a value of TCL_LIBRARY is required to find encodings.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: New internal stubs: TclGetEncodingSearchPath,
-	TclSetEncodingSearchPath, TclpGetEncodingNameFromEnvironment. These
-	are candidates for public exposure by future TIPs.
-
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: make genstubs
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c:	Updated [testencoding] to use
-	* tests/encoding.test:	Tcl(Get|Set)EncodingSearchPath.	 Updated tests.
-
-2004-11-30  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Corrected the regular expressions that match a
-	time zone to allow for time zones specified as +HH or -HH.
-	* tests/clock.test: Added regression test case for the above issue.
-	Thanks to Rolf Ade for reporting this issue [https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Parsing+ISO8601+dates+and+times]
-	* win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Corrected a typo that caused a
-	compilation failure on VC++.
-
-2004-11-29  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Brought entry '2004-10-26 Don
-	Porter (Tcl Modules)' into the windows world, actually the
-	win/configure buildsystem. The other windows buildsystems (.vc, .bc)
-	still have to be updated as well.
-
-2004-11-26  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinDde.c (ExecuteRemoteObject): Removed bogus semicolon found
-	at the end of the header for the function definition, terminating it
-	early and preventing a compile. This is likely a fix for '2004-11-25
-	Donal'. I have to conclude that it is also unknown if the other
-	changes to this file actually pass the testsuite. Running testsuite
-	... They don't. winDde-6.1 fails. This is only a message discrepance,
-	i.e. not too bad. Leaving resolution of that to Pat and Donal.
-
-2004-11-26  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/auto.tcl (tcl_findLibrary): Made sure the uniquifying
-	operations on the search path does not also normalize. [Bug 1072136]
-
-2004-11-26  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/configure.in: Simplify the code to check for correctness of
-	strstr, strtoul and strtod.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_TCL_CHECK_BROKEN_FUNC): Split a complex stanza out
-	of configure.in into its own function. Also force it to do the right
-	thing with caching of results of AC_TRY_RUN to deal with issue raised
-	in [Patch 1073524]
-
-	* doc/foreach.n: Added simple example. [FRQ 1073334]
-
-2004-11-25  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclObjInterpProc):	    Make it so that only
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): [proc] instances do
-	* tests/indexObj.test (indexObj-5.7):	    quoting of their first
-	arguments, so keeping [Bug 942757] fixed and making [Bug 1066837] be
-	fixed as well. Done with a load of #ifdef-ery because this hack is so
-	ugly nobody should keep it around once Itcl's fixed.
-
-2004-11-25  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test: The order in which [glob] returns the file names
-	is undefined, so tests should not depend on it.
-
-2004-11-25  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/Thread.3:
-	* doc/Notifier.3: Added changes from the core-8-4-branch
-
-2004-11-25  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/dde.n: Synchronized the documentation of the commands with the
-	header of the docs and what the package actually does. Thanks to
-	Andreas Kupries for spotting this.
-	* win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Much cleanup of argument parsing
-	code.
-
-2004-11-24  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclPort.h: Relative include of tclWinPort.h returned as it
-	was requiring me set -I$(tcl_root)/win for my extensions that need to
-	include tclInt.h and doesn't appear to serve any purpose for windows
-	builds.
-
-2004-11-24  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Corrected bad check for 3-argument
-	readdir_r [Bug 1001325].
-	* unix/configure: Regenerated.
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Corrected all uses of 'select' to manage their
-	masks using the FD_CLR, FD_ISSET, FD_SET, and FD_ZERO macros rather
-	than bit-whacking that failed under Solaris-Sparc-64. [Bug 1071807]
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Removed unused vars 'pathc'
-	and 'pathv' that caused compilation problems on VC++ with
-	--enable-symbols.
-
-2004-11-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Corrected failure to determine the
-	number of arguments for readdir_r on SunOS systems. [Bug 1071701]
-
-	* unix/configure:	autoconf-2.57
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoVarsCmd):	Corrected segfault in new
-	* tests/info.test (info-19.6):	trivial matching branch [Bug 1072654]
-
-2004-11-24  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tools/man2html.tcl, tools/man2html1.tcl: Update to use Tcl 8.4.
-	* tools/man2html2.tcl: Fix broken .SS handling.
-
-2004-11-23  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Add (commented-out) code to integrate tclConfig.h
-	into the dependency tree and 'make distclean'. [Bug 1068171]
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA): Remove call to
-	Tcl_GetStringResult to speed up repeated calls to Tcl_AppendResult
-	with the side effect that code that wants to access interp->result
-	should always call Tcl_GetStringResult first. See [Patch 1041072]
-	discussion for more details.
-
-2004-11-22  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_TCL_64BIT_FLAGS): Define HAVE_TYPE_OFF64_T only when
-	off64_t, open64(), and lseek64() are defined. IRIX 5.3 is known to not
-	include an open64 function. [Bug 1030465]
-
-2004-11-22  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Check for a 2 argument version of
-	readdir_r that is known to exists under IRIX 5.3.
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpReaddir): Use either 2 arg or 3 arg version
-	of readdir_r. [Bug 1001325]
-
-2004-11-22  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Purged dead code that used
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):  to extend the "library
-	path". Search path construction for init.tcl is now done within the
-	[tclInit] proc.
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Restored several directories to the search
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	path used to locate init.tcl within [tclInit].
-	This change does not restore any directories to the encoding search
-	path, so should still avoid the price of an unreasonably large number
-	of filesystem accesses during encoding initialization at startup
-	[Bug 976438]
-
-2004-11-22  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-2004-11-19  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/Makefile:
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (MacOSXGetLibraryPath): changed detection of tcl
-	framework build when determining tclLibPath from overloaded
-	TCL_LIBRARY to configuration define TCL_FRAMEWORK. [Bug 1068088]
-
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.57
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.57
-
-2004-11-18  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/SaveResult.3:	Documentation for Tcl_*InterpState (TIP 226).
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors):	Simplified program flow.
-
-	* tests/basic.test:	Updated functional (not testing) uses of
-	* tests/io.test:	[bgerror] to make use of [interp bgerror].
-	* tests/socket.test:
-	* tests/timer.test:
-
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-36.*):	[interp bgerror] tests.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Corrected [interp bgerror] error messages.
-
-2004-11-18  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_MANPAGES): Applied an improved version of
-	* unix/configure.in:		    [Patch 996085], that introduces
-	* unix/Makefile.in:		    --enable-man-suffix.
-
-	* unix/installManPage:		    added
-	* unix/mkLinks.tcl:		    removed
-	* unix/mkLinks:			    removed
-	* unix/configure:		    generated
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:		    Don't install tclConfig.h .
-
-2004-11-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure.in: The change below reveals that the public data
-	type Tcl_StatBuf relies on config information. For now, disabled the
-	use of the tclConfig.h file until its full impact on Tcl's interface
-	can be assessed.
-
-	* unix/configure:	autoconf-2.57
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Moved the #include "tclConfig.h" out of
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	tcl.h.	The config settings are not part of
-	* generic/tclPort.:	the public interface, and having it there
-	breaks compiled against uninstalled Tcl and extensions using
-	autoconf-2.5*.
-
-2004-11-16  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtySetOptionProc): fixed crash configuring

-
-2004-11-16  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclFSEpochOk): There were two code paths via
-	which the thread copy of filesystemEpoch could be synched with the
-	master copy, but only one kept the filesystem list cache up to date.
-	Fix routes everything through a single code path. [Bug 1035775].
-
-2004-11-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-11-16  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2004-11-15  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Added comment warning that the old ERR_IN_PROGRESS
-	and ERROR_CODE_SET flag values should not be re-used for the sake of
-	those extensions that have accessed them.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd): Fixed Bug 1065378 which failed
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-33.1):	to permit a variable trace
-	created with [trace variable] to be destroyed with [trace remove].
-	Thanks to Keith Vetter for the report.
-
-2004-11-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-	* doc/interp.n: Basic documentation of the TIP#221 API.
-
-2004-11-12  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	TIP #221 IMPLEMENTATION
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Define [::tcl::Bgerror] in new interps.

-				registered [interp bgerror] command.
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	New [interp bgerror] subcommand.
-	* tests/interp.test:	syntax tests updated.
-
-	TIP #226 IMPLEMENTATION

-	* generic/tclMain.c:
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	make genstubs
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-	* unix/tclAppInit.c:	Removed tclConfig.h #include, now that tcl.h
-				takes care of it for us.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Moved verification of ptrdiff_t typedef from
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: multiple .c files into one common header where
-	* generic/tclVar.c:	it is verifiably after tclConfig.h inclusion.
-
-2004-11-12  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* unix/Makefile.in: include tclConfig.h from tcl.h and install it as a
-	public header. Normalized compiler include path order to
-	-I${BUILD_DIR} -I${UNIX_DIR} -I${GENERIC_DIR}.
-
-	* unix/dltest/Makefile.in: add ${BUILD_DIR}/.. to include path to pick
-	up tclConfig.h.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: moved check for HAVE_CFBUNDLE define after
-	#include "tclInt.h" to ensure tclConfig.h has been included.
-
-2004-11-12  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/config.h.in:
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in:	renamed
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Completed support for config header,
-	* unix/configure.in:	fixed building outside of the unix dir,
-	* unix/tclAppinit.c:	and reflected the name change of config.h.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-
-	* unix/configure:	generated
-
-2004-11-12  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/config.h.in:	Allow configure to put all the C #defs into
-	* unix/configure.in:	a file (called config.h) so that Unix builds
-	* unix/tcl.m4:		now take far fewer lines of scrollback to
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	proceed (making it less likely that any errors
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	or warnings will get missed).
-	* unix/tclAppInit.c:	Part of the TIP#34 upgrades.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4, unix/tclUnixPort.h: Check for pthread_attr_get_np in
-	<pthread.h> before forcing the use of <pthread_np.h> to make things
-	work on NetBSD 2.0. [Bug 1064882]
-
-	* doc/binary.n, doc/upvar.n: More minor fixes.
-
-2004-11-12  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3:
-	* doc/Interp.3:
-	* doc/Limit.3:
-	* doc/binary.n:
-	* doc/dict.n:
-	* doc/tm.n:
-	* doc/upvar.n: fixed *roff errors uncovered by running 'make html'.
-
-	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: added faked support for bullet point
-	lists, i.e. *nroff ".IP \(bu" syntax.
-
-2004-11-11  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test:
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (TraverseUnixTree): added option to rewind() the
-	readdir() loop whenever the source hierarchy has been modified by
-	traverseProc (e.g. by deleting files); this is required to ensure
-	complete traversal of the source hierarchy on certain filesystems like
-	HFS+. Added test for failing recursive delete on Mac OS X that was due
-	to this. [Bug 1034337]
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (Tcl_ListObjReplace): use memmove() instead of
-	manual copy loop to shift list elements. Decreases time spent in
-	Tcl_ListObjReplace() from 5.2% to 1.7% of overall runtime of tclbench
-	on a ppc 7455 (i.e. 200% speed increase). [Patch 1064243]
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c: hoisted some constant pointer dereferences out of
-	loops to eliminate redundant loads that the gcc optimizer didn't deal
-	with. Decreases time spend in Tcl_FindHashEntry() by 10% over a full
-	run of the tcl testuite on a ppc 7455. [Patch 1064243]
-
-	* tests/fileName.test:
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:
-	* tests/io.test:
-	* tests/msgcat.test:
-	* tests/tcltest.test:
-	* tests/unixInit.test: fixed bugs causing failures when running tests
-	with -tmpdir arg not set to working dir.
-
-	* macosx/Makefile: corrected path to html help inside framework.
-	Prevent parallel make from building several targets at the same time.
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c (struct fileinfobuf): force struct to be
-	packed to prevent failures when builing with -malign=natural.
-
-2004-11-10  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c: [Bug 727786]. Exterminated the code marked
-	DEPRECATED. This code has not been used in over a year now, and we
-	have no complaints.
-
-2004-11-08  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: The pipe channel driver now respects the -blocking
-	option when closing is the same way the UNIX side works. This is to
-	avoid a hung shell when exiting due to open pipes that refuse to close
-	in a graceful manner.
-	* doc/open.n: Added a note about -blocking 0 and lack of exit status
-	as it had never been documented. [Bug 947693]
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-	Scripts that use async pipes on windows, must (like the UNIX side) set
-	-blocking to 1 before calling [close] to receive the exit status.
-
-2004-11-07  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tests/winFile.test: added contraint to winFile-4.0 to prevent it
-	being run on NT4 [Bug 981829]
-
-2004-11-05  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/reg.test: Major reorganization so that this file is much
-	easier for a normal Tcl maintainer to comprehend. The test flags are
-	still very cryptic, but they appear to have to be that way. The number
-	of skipped tests has increased, but now the skipped tests have much
-	more meaningful content.
-
-	* tests/tm.test (genpaths): Add a [file normalize] so we pick up
-	Windows drive letters, etc. [Bug 1053568]
-
-2004-11-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* changes:	Updates toward an 8.5a2 release.
-
-2004-11-03  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl (FreeScan): Fixed a bug where scanning "Monday"
-	with a base time other than midnight incorrectly carried the base time
-	forward.
-
-	* test/clock.test (clock-33.{5,5a}): Made the test failure more
-	informative.
-
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-34.{28,44,45,46}): Removed 'knownBug'
-	constraints from tests that no longer fail.
-
-	Thanks to Don Porter for reporting these.
-
-2004-11-03  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:		Moved the preprocessor logic
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:		from tclInt.h of setting the
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		TCL_STORAGE_CLASS macro to the
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:	tcl*Decls.h files now that no
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:	use of EXTERN is left in tclInt.h.
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:	Proto for Tcl_Main moved in tcl.h
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:		to prior the inclusion of the Stubs
-	headers as they are now resetting TCL_STORAGE_CLASS. Removed
-	extraineous reset from tclWinPort.h. [Patch 1055668]
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: Removed extrainious reset of TCL_STORAGE_CLASS
-	missed in my last edit.
-
-2004-11-03  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/init.tcl ([unknown]): Corrections to the 2004-10-25 mods to
-	Aunt ??? in [unknown]. Flaws revealed by Itcl test suite, which still
-	apparently relies on this brokenness. Also added comment suggesting
-	the error message that any code using this hack *ought* to receive in
-	reply.
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TclCallVarTraces):  Improved ability to debug
-	* tests/incr-old.test (incr-old-2.6):	  errors during variable
-	* tests/incr.test (incr-{1,2}.28):	  traces by preserving the
-	* tests/set.test (set-{2,4}.4):		  -errorinfo data.
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-33.1):	  [Bug 527164]
-
-2004-11-02  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added a check for #ifdef __cplusplus around the
-	#define of MODULE_SCOPE. About the only time it would be problem is
-	when someone is statically linking to Tcl and accessing internals from
-	a C++ file and has name mangling issues from the lack of "C" after
-	'extern' [Patch 1055668].
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: Exchanged use of the EXTERN macro to the new
-	MODULE_SCOPE macro. Lowered exported internals count by 35. [Patch
-	1055668]
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: exported internals dropped by a count of 14.
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: Added use of MODULE_SCOPE on protos.
-	* generic/tclRegexp.h: manipulating TCL_STORAGE_CLASS unnecessary.
-
-2004-11-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:		Corrected some misleading
-	* tests/tcltest.test (tcltest-26.1,2):	displays of ::errorInfo and
-	::errorCode information when the -setup, -body, and/or -cleanup scripts
-	return an unexpected return code. Thanks to Robert Seeger for the fix.
-	[RFE 1017151].
-
-2004-11-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Improved version of the
-	NaN fix from Miguel Sofer. [Bug 761471]
-
-2004-11-02  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/tzdata/America/Cuiaba: Change to DST rules for
-	* library/tzdata/America/Havana: autumn of 2004.
-	[ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2004g.tar.gz]
-
-	* tools/tclZIC.tcl: Updated to be compatible with recent changes in
-	library/clock.tcl.
-
-2004-11-02  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Simplify TclpUtime to use Tcl_FSGetNativePath, and
-	add comments.
-
-2004-11-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Change uses of EXTERN to MODULE_SCOPE (defined in
-	this file too to be 'extern' if not overridden) as nothing declared in
-	tclInt.h is supposed to be visible outside the Tcl core. If there *is*
-	anything that extensions are actually using, we can open this up later
-	on. [Patch 1055668]
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3 (Tcl_GetChannelMode): Add synopsis. [Bug 1058446]
-
-2004-11-01  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (FromCTime, TclpUtime): Replaced a call to the
-	Posix 'utime' function with calls to Windows-API equivalents, to avoid
-	a bug where the VC++ versions misconvert times across a Daylight
-	Saving Time boundary. [Bug 926106]
-	* win/tclWinInt.h (TclWinProcs):
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (asciiProcs, unicodeProcs): Removed now-unused
-	reference to 'utime'.
-	* tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-24.12): Added test case for the above bug.
-
-2004-11-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Make INST_EQ and friends
-	handle NaN correctly in all cases. [Bug 761471]
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceInscopeCmd): Make the error message
-	generation the same as in NamespaceEvalCmd().
-	(Tcl_Import): Rationalized to use Tcl_EvalObjv().
-
-2004-10-31  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/io.test (io-40.3): Convert umask2 test constraint into a form
-	that most people will be able to satisfy.
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-8.45): Removed broken test constraint. It
-	didn't do what it was intended to do, and it implied the other correct
-	constraint. [Bug 1053908]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoGlobalsCmd):
-	* tests/info.test (info-8.4): Strip leading global-namespace
-	specifiers from the pattern argument. [Bug 1057461]
-
-2004-10-30  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/clock.c: Replaced WIN32 macro with __WIN32__. [Bug 1054357].
-	Thanks to David Gravereaux for the patch.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Removed a long-standing bug that causes incorrect
-	conversion between file time and UTC time if the file time is recorded
-	in a different Daylight Saving Time status than the current one. [Bug
-	926106]
-
-2004-10-29  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Correct reaction to errors in the
-	obsolete processCmdLineArgsHook.	[Bug 1055673]
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl:	Bump to tcltest 2.2.7
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* tests/all.tcl:	Update to use [tcltest::configure].
-
-2004-10-29  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::*): Use the core proc engine to generate
-	the wrong-num-args error messages for the path ensemble.
-
-	Ensembles can now (sometimes) rewrite the error messages of their
-	subcommands so they appear more like the arguments that the user
-	passed to the ensemble. Below is a description of changes involved in
-	doing this.
-
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-50.*): Tests of ensemble subcommand
-	error message rewriting.
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclObjInterpProc): Make procedures implement
-	their wrong-num-args message using Tcl_WrongNumArgs instead of
-	something baked-at-home.
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (TclIsEnsemble, NsEnsembleImplementationCmd):
-	Added test of ensemble-hood (available to rest of core) and made
-	ensembles set up the rewriting for Tcl_WrongNumArgs to take advantage
-	of.
-	* generic/tclInt.h (Interp.ensembleRewrite): Extra fields.
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): Add knowledge of what is
-	going on in ensembles' command rewriting so this command can generate
-	the right error message itself.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp, TclEvalObjvInternal): Added
-	code to initialize (as empty) the rewriting fields and reset them when
-	we leak outside an ensemble implementation.
-
-2004-10-28  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_START_CMD):
-	* tests/execute.test (execute-8.3): fix for execution stack corruption
-	[Bug 1055676]. Credit dgp for detective work and fix.
-
-2004-10-27  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/socket.test (socket-13.1):	Balanced [makeFile] and
-	[removeFile] commands.
-
-	* tests/clock.test:	Correct duplicate test names.
-	* tests/namespace.test:
-	* tests/string.test:
-	* tests/io.test (io-50.4):	Use namespace variables.
-
-2004-10-27  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:	  The following 9 functions were moved from
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	  tclInt.h to the private/int Stubs table for
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:  use by the test suite. As tclTest.obj is
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:  linked to the shell, these functions need
-	"blessed" status so as to always be exported from the library. Being
-	placed in the Stubs table guarantees this [Bug 1054748]:
-		TclpObjRemoveDirectory,	TclpObjCopyDirectory,
-		TclpObjCreateDirectory,	TclpObjDeleteFile,
-		TclpObjCopyFile,	TclpObjRenameFile,
-		TclpObjStat,		TclpObjAccess,
-		TclpOpenFileChannel
-
-	* tests/registry.test:	Fixed test files to load the correct
-	* tests/winDde.test:	registry and dde packages by using the info
-	* win/Makefile.in:	from makefiles to tell tcltest where to load
-	* win/makefile.vc:	them from. This avoids grabbing the wrong
-	package from $auto_path which might be the install point rather than
-	the dev location. Kudos to Jennifer Hom for adding -load and
-	-loadfile to the tcltest package. [Bug 926088]
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c (TclFinalizeLock): release the critical section
-	before deleting it. [Bug 731778]
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Removed the file level 'extern "C" {' and the
-	coresponding closing block as it serves no purpose given that all the
-	function prototypes have the proper extern usage already.
-
-	* unix/tclAppInit.c:	When built as tcltest, TclThread_Init was
-	* win/tclAppInit.c:	getting called twice. First by Tcltest_Init,
-	then again in Tcl_AppInit. The call from Tcl_AppInit is now removed.
-
-2004-10-27  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/tm.test:  Expanded on the testsuite entered by Donal.
-	* library/tm.tcl: Even found bugs, these have been corrected.
-
-2004-10-26  Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/format.test (format-19.1): Additional regression test for [Bug
-	868489].
-
-2004-10-27  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/*.n: Many small general documentation fixes.
-
-2004-10-26  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclPipe.c (TclCleanupChildren): bad cast of resolvedPid
-	caused PIDs on win95 to go negative. winpipe-4.2 brought this to the
-	surface. Fixed with sprintf in place of TclFormatInt. Thanks to hgiese
-	[Patch 767676]
-
-2004-10-26  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::Defaults): Added a second [file dirname]
-	around the location of the executable. This fixes [Bug 1038705].
-	Instable of a bogus "foo/bin/lib" we now have the correct "foo/lib" as
-	a base path for modules.
-
-2004-10-26  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_SubstObj):	Fix for failed subst-12.3 test
-	* tests/subst.test (subst-12.3-5):	More tests for Bug 1036649.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Updated the installation of
-	the http, msgcat, and tcltest packages to install as Tcl Modules on
-	Unix systems. Other platform Makefiles still need updating. [Patch
-	1054370]
-
-	* tests/basic.test:	Added missing constraints.
-	* tests/compile.test:
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:
-
-	* tests/init.test (init-2.8):	Updated to not rely on http package.
-
-2004-10-26  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclVar.c: removed more direct references to the VAR flags,
-	replaced with access macros.
-
-2004-10-26  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/expr.n: Clarified that non-num/non-bool literals require
-	quoting. [Bug 1027849]. Also listed booleans as acceptable values.
-
-2004-10-26  Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl (FreeScan): Fixed a bug that caused relative days
-	of the week in free-form [clock scan] to be evaluated in the wrong
-	time zone.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-31.[456]): Made sure that there isn't an
-	env(TZ) or env(TCL_TZ) lying around that will override the time zone
-	that we're trying to establish with the simulated registry.
-	Both problems reported as [Bug 1054101].
-
-2004-10-25  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/string.n (map): Rewrote to clarify that we don't just map single
-	characters. [Bug 1048005]
-	* doc/info.n (procs): Clarified that the pattern argument may have
-	namespace separators in it. [Bug 1047928]
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-8.45): Simplify in the hope that the reasons
-	for [Bug 1053908] will become clearer.
-
-2004-10-25  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (IllegalExprOperandType,TclExecuteByteCode):
-	Removed several DECACHE_INFO/CACHE_INFO pairs that are no longer
-	needed for protection because routines like Tcl_SetErrorCode() and
-	Tcl_AddErrorInfo() can no longer re-enter bytecode execution.
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclProcessReturn): Bug fix. Be sure that a
-	missing -errorinfo option when code == TCL_ERROR causes the errorInfo
-	field to get reset.
-
-	* tests/thread.test (thread-4.4): Test depended on a ::errorInfo value
-	initialized to "". Added code to test to setup that requirement.
-
-	* library/auto.tcl:	Purged Tcl's script library of all
-	* library/clock.tcl:	remaining references to global vars
-	* library/init.tcl:	::errorInfo and ::errorCode.
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): Updated to make use of
-	TclGetReturnOptions instead of ::errorInfo variable.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (tclInit): Bug fix. Access dict variables with
-	[dict get], not array syntax.
-
-2004-10-25  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/tm.test: Rewrote the tests to actually perform syntax checks
-	on the public API. Added a new test (currently failing) to indicate
-	that the test suite is not complete yet.
-	* library/tm.tcl (path): Rewrote to turn this command into an ensemble
-	to make it faster and simpler.
-
-2004-10-24  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclTrace.c: defined new macros to get/set the flags of
-	variables. The only files that still access the flag values directly
-	are tclCompCmds.c, tclCompile.c, tclProc.c and tclVar.c
-
-2004-10-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_LogCommandInfo,Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo): Shift
-	the initialization of errorCode to NONE to more central location.
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (BgError,Tcl_BackgroundError,HandleBgErrors):
-	Rewrite to build on the new TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines.
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclGetReturnOptions): Add call to
-	Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo to be sure error fields are initialized.
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclTransferResult): Rewrite to build on the new
-	TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines.
-
-2004-10-22  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/tm.n: Tightened up the documentation.
-	* tests/tm.test: Created (with partially dummy content) so TIP#189 can
-	be marked Final.
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NsEnsembleImplementationCmd): Make ensembles
-	cut their implementations out of error traces. This is the right thing
-	to do more often than not.
-
-2004-10-22  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Fixed a typo where the fallback time zone became
-	::localtime instead of :localtime. Fixed a bug where time zone names
-	containing hyphens could not be loaded.
-	* tests/clock.test: Added regression test cases that covers both bugs.
-	Thanks to Todd M. Helfter <tmh@jumpgate.itsp.purdue.edu> for finding
-	these bugs.
-
-2004-10-22  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj, Tcl_ExprObj):

-	freeIntRepProc's in the same way.
-
-2004-10-22  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: fixed bug in commit of 2004-07-23, which was
-	causing a leak of Proc structures and failure of compile-12.1. Two
-	lines were 'zombies' from the previous way localVarNames worked.
-	Credit dgp for finding this.
-
-2004-10-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (Interp):
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp,Tcl_DeleteInterp):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (GetKeys,ReleaseKeys,etc.): Moved the key values
-	of the return options dictionary out of private fields of the Interp
-	struct and into thread-static values managed in tclResult.c.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_CatchObjCmd, Tcl_ErrorObjCmd): Updated to
-	call the new TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines to do much of their
-	work.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclGetReturnOptions,TclSetReturnOptions):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclGetReturnOptions,TclSetReturnOptions): New
-	utility routines to get/set the return options of an interp. Intent is
-	that these routines will be converted to public routines after TIP
-	approval.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclProcessReturn,TclMergeReturnOptions):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclProcessReturn,TclMergeReturnOptions): Move
-	internal utility routines from tclCmdMZ.c to tclResult.c.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp, Tcl_DeleteInterp):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclTransferResult): Rework so that
-	iPtr->returnOpts can be NULL when there are no special options.
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclRestoreInterpState): Plug potential memory
-	leak.
-
-2004-10-21  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Various changes to [clock format] that,
-	* generic/tclClock.c: together, make it roughly twice as fast
-	* generic/tclInt.h:   while all tests in the test suite
-	* library/clock.tcl:  continue to pass.
-
-2004-10-20  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-msgs):   Fixed a problem with the
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-tzdata): installation of timezone data and
-	message catalogs. They used the installed tcl library directory, not
-	the source library. Before it was installed. Switched to source lib
-	dir. Thanks to Kevin for the help in figuring this out.
-
-2004-10-20  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c (ThreadEventProc): Corrected subtle bug
-	where the returned (char *) from Tcl_GetStringResult(interp) continued
-	to be used without copying or refcounting, while activity on the
-	interp continued. That's not safe, and recent changes demonstrated the
-	lack of safety with failing tests thread-4.3 and thread-4.5.
-
-2004-10-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictWithCmd): Make sure all paths (that are
-	not themselves error paths) do not lose the result code.
-
-2004-10-19  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (Tcl*InterpState):		New internal routines
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl*InterpState):	TclSaveInterpState,
-	TclRestoreInterpState, and TclDiscardInterpState are superior
-	replacements for Tcl_(Save|Restore|Discard)Result. Intent is that
-	these routines will be converted to public routines after TIP
-	approval. Interfaces for these routines were shamelessly stolen from
-	Itcl.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal):
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictUpdateCmd, DictWithCmd):
-	* generic/tclIOGT.c (ExecuteCallback):
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (Trace*Proc,TclCheck*Traces,TclCallVarTraces):
-	Callers of Tcl_*Result updated to call the new routines. The calls
-	were relocated in several cases to perform save/restore operations
-	only when needed.
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors):
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c (CopyRenameOneFile): Calls to Tcl_*Result that
-	were eliminated because they appeared to serve no useful purpose,
-	typically saving/restoring an error message, only to throw it away.
-
-2004-10-18  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj):
-	* generic/tclInt.h (Interp):
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo): Place primary storage of
-	the -level and -code information in private fields of the Interp

-	performance of TclUpdateReturnInfo.
-
-2004-10-17  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c: removed unused variable [Bug 1048588]. Thanks

-
-2004-10-15  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclProcessReturn):	Now that primary
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):	storage for the
-	errorInfo and errorCode values are internal fields, we can set them at
-	the time of the [return] command, and not have to wait until the
-	specified number of "-level"s have popped.

-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_ResetResult, TclTransferResult):
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (CallVarTraces):
-	Reworked management of the "errorInfo" data of an interp. That
-	information is now primarily stored in a new private (Tcl_Obj *) field
-	of the Interp struct, rather than using a global variable ::errorInfo
-	as the primary storage. The ERR_IN_PROGRESS flag bit value is no
-	longer required to manage the value in its new location, and is
-	removed. Variable traces are established to support compatibility for
-	any code expecting the ::errorInfo variable to hold the information.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Code that sets traces on the ::errorInfo variable may notice a
-	difference in timing of the firing of those traces. Code that uses the
-	value ERR_IN_PROGRESS.

-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:
-	* tests/fileName.test:
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: code reorganization for better generic/platform
-	code splitting [Bug 925620] removing the need for several #ifdef's,
-	and tests and fix for an unreported Windows glob problem ('glob -dir
-	C: -tails *').
-
-2004-10-07  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* *.3: Convert CONST to const and VOID to void so we document how
-	people should actually use the Tcl API and not the compatibility hacks
-	that it has to have.
-
-	* doc/man.macros, *.3: Update .AS macro so it can know how wide to
-	make the third column of the argument list. Update documentation for C
-	API (only users) to take advantage of this.
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: Formatting fixes for greater documentation
-	clarity.
-
-2004-10-06  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (DoGlob, TclGlob): Stop messy sharing of
-	interpreter result and instead use a private object for collecting the
-	result of the glob. This simplifies TclGlob quite a lot.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory): Simplify by removing
-	some nesting. Also standardize variable names.
-	(FsAddMountsToGlobResult): Force updates to the list to be done
-	in-place, putting a side-condition of non-shared-ness on the resultPtr
-	argument to Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory, but everything would have broken
-	before if that was shared *anyway*.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Removed reference to Tcl
-	interpreter; it wasn't needed as direct object use is more efficient.
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: Made this file follow the style rules in the
-	Engineering Manual more closely, and also take advantage of the
-	internal object manipulation macros more.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): Reorganized to have fewer
-	magic flag variables and to separate the code that scans for a match
-	from the code that processes a match body.

-	as the primary storage. The ERROR_CODE_SET flag bit value is no longer

-
-	* doc/DictObj.3, doc/dict.n: Clarified that a dictionary is not

-	(Tcl_DictObjNext): Make calling this after Tcl_DictObjDone non-fatal

-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (TclTransferResult): Added safety checks so that

-	Continued refactoring of [clock] for TIP 173 changes. Broke the
-	free-form parser apart so that the Bison parser is responsible for
-	only parsing, while clock.tcl handles relative times like "next
-	Thursday", "next January". This change is needed to make timezones
-	other than :localtime and :Etc/UTC work with free-form scanning. This
-	change closes out the issue identified as being "for another day" in
-	my log message of 2004-09-08. The refactored code also eliminates the
-	last known references to TclpStrftime and TclGetDate, so those
-	routines (including compat/strftime.c) have been removed. The
-	refactoring also has the benefit that all storage in the Bison parser
-	is now on the C stack, eliminating any need for mutex protection
-	around [clock scan]. Also, changed the Makefiles so that 'make
-	gendate' is available on Windows as well as Unix.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Removed some grubby
-	* generic/tclObj.c (SetBooleanFromAny):	 work-around code that was
-	needed only because of Bug 868489.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclObjInvoke): Removed three unused variables to

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Corrections to the 2004-09-21 commit
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	regarding ERR_ALREADY_LOGGED. That commit
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	caused Tk test send-10.7 to fail. Added

-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	Tolerate [append] syntax errors
-	* tests/appendComp.test (8.1):	at compile time, and allow runtime to

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Reworked management of the interp flag
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	ERR_ALREADY_LOGGED, to reduce its exposure.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Still left several referebces that are just
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	too nice on performace to do away with.	These
-	changes also resolve an inconsistency in the ::errorInfo values
-	produced by [namespace eval x error foo bar] and [namespace eval x
-	{error foo bar}].
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj):	Simplified the
-	TclCompEvalObj routine. Much housekeeping now reliably happens

-2004-09-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo, Tcl_LogCommandInfo):
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c ([catch], [error]):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c ([return]):
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_SetErrorCodeVA, Tcl_SetObjErrorCode)
-	(TclTransferResult):	Refactored so that all errorCode setting flows
-	through Tcl_SetObjErrorCode(). This greatly reduces the number of
-	different places in the code that need to know details about an
-	internal bitflag field of the Interp struct. Also places errorCode
-	setting in one place for easier future mods.
-
-2004-09-17  Kevin B.Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclDate.c:	Revised tclGetDate.y to use bison instead of
-	* generic/tclGetDate.y: yacc to build the parser, eliminating all the
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	complicated hackery involving 'sed'
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	postprocessing. Rebuilt the parser.
-
-2004-09-14  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (ClockOldscanObjCmd): Silenced a compiler warning
-	(long passed as a param where unsigend long was expected). 'Unsigned
-	long' is wrong, but the fix is really to change the signature of
-	TclGetDate to return a structure of its 'yy' variables and then do the
-	remaining work inside clock.tcl. But, as I said on 2004-09-08, that's
-	a job for another day. [Bug 1027993]

-2004-09-10  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/interp.n:

-
-2004-09-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NsEnsembleImplementationCmd): Add token field
-	to internal rep of EnsembleCmdRep structure so that we can check it to
-	see if the subcommand object is really being used with the same
-	ensemble. [Bug 1026903]
-
-2004-09-11  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (TclMktimeObjCmd): Corrected a bad check for
-	error return from 'mktime'.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetIntFromObj): Corrected a problem where
-	demoting a wide to an int failed on a big-endian machine. [Bug
-	1026125].
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-43.1): Added regression test for error
-	return from 'mktime'.
-
-2004-09-11  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_CONCAT1): fix for [Bug 1025834]; avoid

-
-2004-09-10  David Gravereaux <davyrgvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test: tcltest-12.3-4 needed to have

-
-2004-09-10  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (SetIntOrWideFromAny): Rewritten integral value
-	parsing code so that values do not flip so easily between numeric
-	representations. Thanks to KBK for this! [Bug 868489]
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek): Make sure wide seeks do not fail to set
-	::errorCode on error. [Bug 1025359]
-
-2004-09-10  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Micro formatting fixes.
-	* generic/tclIOGT.c: Channel version fixed, must be 3, to have
-	wideseekProc. Thanks to David Graveraux <davygrvy@pobox.com>.
-
-2004-09-11  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamespace.c (TclGetNamespaceForQualName): Resolved
-	longstanding inconsistency in the treatment of the TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY
-	flag revealed by testing the 2004-09-09 commits against Itcl.
-	TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY now acts as specified in the pre-function comment,
-	forcing resolution in the passed in context namespace. It has been
-	incorrectly forcing resolution in the interp's current namespace.
-
-2004-09-10  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Fixed a bug where %z always put a plus sign on
-	the time zone in :localtime.
-	* tests/clock.test: Added test case for the above bug.
-
-2004-09-10  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_CONCAT1): added a peephole optimisation
-	for concatting an empty string. This enables replacing the idiom 'K $x
-	[set x {}]' by '$x[set x {}]' for fastest execution.
-
-2004-09-09  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinConsole.c: Calls to WriteFile and WriteConsoleA changed to
-	WriteConsole for simplicity.
-
-2004-09-09  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_ForgetImport):	Corrected faulty
-
-	* tests/namespace.test: logic that relied exclusively on string
-	matching and failed in the presence of [rename]s. [Bug 560297] Also
-	corrected faulty prevention of [namespace import] cycles. [Bug 1017299]
-
-2004-09-08  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp):	Removed obsolete field
-	for storing the string-based command procedure of built-in commands.
-	We no longer have any string-based built-in commands!
-
-2004-09-08  Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* compat/strftime.c (_conv): Corrected a problem where hour 0 would
-	format as a blank format group with %k.
-	* doc/clock.n: Corrected a buglet in the header information. [Bug
-	1024058]
-	* generic/tclClock.c (TclClockMktimeObjCmd): Fixed a bug where the
-	month was scanned incorrectly in -timezone :localtime.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-34.*,clock-40.1, clock-41.1): Adjusted the
-	clock-34.* test cases so that the consistency check is performed in
-	:localtime rather than the current time zone. This change allows
-	dealing with issues where the C library has a different idea of DST
-	conversion than Tcl. (Real fix would be to break TclGetDate into
-	separate parser and time converter, and do the time conversion in
-	clock.tcl. That's for another day.) Added regression test case for the
-	bug where month was scanned incorrectly in -timezone :localtime. [Bug
-	1023779] Added regression test case for %k at the zero hour.
-
-2004-09-07  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: some quoting needed to be removed as it was
-	breaking with VC7. [Bug 1023150]
-
-2004-09-07  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/clock.n: Documented the default -format, and changed references
-	to a (nonexistent) msgcat command to refer to the msgcat package. [Bug
-	1023870]
-	* generic/tclTimer.c: Removed a premature optimisation that attempted
-	to store the assoc data in the client data; the optimisation caused a
-	bug that [after] would overwrite its imports. [Bug 1016167]
-	* library/clock.tcl (InitTZData, ClearCaches): Changed so that the
-	in-memory time zone :UTC (and its aliases) always gets reinitialised,
-	in case tzdata is absent. [Bug 1019537, 1023779]
-	* library/tzdata/*: Regenerated.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-31.*, clock-39.1): Corrected a problem where
-	the 'system' locale tests fail on a non-English Windows machine. [Bug
-	1023761]. Added a test to make sure that alias time zones load
-	correctly. [Bug 1023779].
-	* tests/timer.test (timer-1.1, timer-2.1): Changed to (one hopes!) be
-	more resilient on an overloaded system, if [after 200] sleeps for 300
-	ms or longer.
-	* tools/tclZIC.tcl (writeLinks): Corrected a problem where alias time
-	zone names were written incorrectly, causing them to fail to load at
-	run time. [Bug 1023779].
-	* win/tclWinTime.c (Tcl_GetTime): Eliminated CPUID tests on Win64 -
-	assuming that HAL vendors now do a better job of keeping the
-	performance counters synchronized among CPU's. [Bug 1020445]

-		Implementation of TIPs #173 and #209.
-
-	The [clock] command is now a Tcl ensemble, with most of its
-	functionality written in Tcl and callouts to C code only to access
-	low-level functions such as localtime, mktime and tzset.
-
-	In addition to the functionality changes called out in the two TIPs,
-	it is worth noting that the [clock] command in a safe slave
-	interpreter is now an alias to the [clock] command in the master, and
-	that [clock] is otherwise not expected to function entirely correctly
-	in safe interps. C code that simply does Tcl_MakeSafe needs to be
-	aware that [clock] may need special handling. (It appears unlikely
-	that such code actually exists.)
-
-	One incompatibility of note is that if the time zone cannot be
-	determined from the TZ, TCL_TZ environment variables, or from the
-	Windows control panel, so that the C library must be used for date and
-	time conversions, then times outside the range of time_t will fail;
-	they used to return bad data silently.
-
-	Many thanks to all the many people who assisted with testing,
-	debugging, criticism of the specification, and localisation. Deserving
-	of particular mention are Joe English, Clif Flynt, Donal K. Fellows,
-	Jeff Hobbs, Cameron Laird, Arjen Markus, Reinhard Max, Christopher
-	Nelson, Steve Offutt, Donald G. Porter, Pascal Scheffers, Peter da
-	Silva and Richard Suchenwirth-Bauersachs.

-

-	* Not reverting, but #ifdef'ing the changes from May 19, 2004 out of

-	correctly. Thus [SF Tcl Bug 943274] is still fixed if a recent enough
-	version of Expect is used.
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3: Added warning about usage of a channel without a

-
-2004-07-15  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): stuffed memory leak incurred by
-	re-initializing of TSD slots after the last call to
-	TclFinalizeThreadData (done from within Tcl_FinalizeThread()). We
-	basically just repeat the TclFinalizeThreadData() once more before
-	tearing down TSD keys in TclFinalizeSynchronization(). There should be
-	more elaborate mechanism in place for handling such issues, based on
-	thread cleanup handlers registered on the OS level. Such change
-	requires much more work and would also require TIP because some
-	visible parts of Tcl API would have to be modified. In the meantime,
-	this will do.
-
-	* generic/tclNotify.c (TclFinalizeNotifier): Added conditional
-	notifier finalization based on the fact that an TclInitNotifier has
-	been called for the current thread. This fixes the [Bug 770053] again.
-	Hopefully this time w/o unwanted side-effects.
-

-
-2004-06-29  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2004-06-29  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* library/safe.tcl: Make sure that the temporary variable is local to

-
-2004-06-24  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/unixNotfy.test: Modified constraints so that testing with a
-	threaded tclsh (not tcltest) will not hang.
-
-2004-06-23  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Corrected type casting errors that led
-	to calculation of a negative index value, thus accesses outside the
-	threadStorageCache array, thus memory corruption. Crash observed on
-	Mac OS X platform.
-
-2004-06-23  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
-	* generic/tclThread.c: Implements platform independent thread storage
-	* generic/tclThreadStorage.c: mechanism and fixes associated bugs on
-	platforms where there is limited thread local storage space
-	(Win98/WinNT4). [Patch 976496]
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: Added thread storage functions to the
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: internal stubs table.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tcl.m4:
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:
-	* win/Makefile.in: Modified the unix, VC++, and Cygwin build systems
-	* win/configure: to include the new "tclThreadStorage.c" and the new

-
-2004-06-23  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/io.test: Added -force to 18.1 and 18.2. This was failing on
-	WinXP.
-
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: Added a cleanup to winFCmd-16.11 to avoid a
-	failure in 16.12.
-
-	* tests/eofchar.data: Added -kb option to ensure a binary checkout to
-	win32 systems. This fixes a failure in io-61.1
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: fix for [Bug 977369] about launching tclsh to
-	generate a tclConfig.sh with the nmake build system
-
-2004-06-23  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/winDde.test (createChildProcess): Added a 200-ms delay (with
-	the event loop live) when shutting down the test DDE server process.
-	With the delay in place, nuisance failures of tests winDde-4.2, -6.5,
-	and -6.6 appear to be much less frequent. [Bug 957449]
-
-2004-06-23  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/*.test: Standardize use of platform constraints.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (GetStackSize, TclpCheckStackSpace):
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpThreadGetStackSize): Added code to check
-	whether the C stack is about to be exceeded, from [Patch 746378] by
-	Joe Mistachkin but with substantial revisions.
-
-2004-06-22  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (NewThreadProc): Fixed broken build on Windows
-	caused by missing TCL_THREAD_CREATE_RETURN.
-
-	* tests/stack.test (stack-3.1): Corrected nuisance error in threaded
-	builds.

-	* generic/tclEvent.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: [Bug 770053]. See bug report for more information
-	about what it does.
-
-	* tests/unixNotfy.test: rewritten to use tcltest::threadReap to
-	gracefully wait for the test thread to exit. Otherwise we got a race
-	condition with main thread exiting before the test thread. This
-	exposed the long-standing Tcl lib issue with resource
-	garbage-collection on application exit.

-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (DllMain, _except_dllmain_detach_handler)

-	(_except_makefilechannel_handler):
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, _except_dorenamefile_handler)
-	(DoCopyFile, _except_docopyfile_handler):
-	Rework pushing of exception handler function pointer so that compiling
-	with gcc -O3 works. Remove empty function call to avoid compiler
-	warning. Mark the DllMain function as noinline to avoid compiler error
-	from duplicated asm labels in generated code.
-
-2004-06-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (Ptr2Block): Rewrote so as to maximize the
-	chance of detecting and reporting a memory inconsistency without
-	relying on things being consistent. [Bug 975895]
-
-2004-06-18  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/load.test:	Relaxed strictness of error message matching
-	for test load-2.3 so that it will pass on Mac OSX.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Static TclFindEncodings -> FindEncodings.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Updated TclpFindExecutable() so that failed
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	attempts to find the executable are saved
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:	just as successful finds are. [Patch 966053]
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c:
-
-2004-06-18  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/winFCmd.test (winFCmd-16.12): Changed test to compute the
-	target directory, so as not to fail if the user's HOME isn't the root.
-
-2004-06-19  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: autoconf 2.5 fixes in Darwin section.
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.57
-
-2004-06-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (localeTable): Added some more locale to encoding
-	mapping info from Jim Huang <jserv@kaffe.org>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (PendingObjData,TclFreeObjMacro,etc):
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclFreeObj): Added scheme for making TclFreeObj()
-	avoid blowing up the C stack when freeing up very large object trees.
-	[Bug 886231]
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (SetDefaultLibraryDir): Fix logic, simplify and add
-	comments.
-
-2004-06-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Added missing space in panic message.
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	Inform [tclInit] about the default library
-	directory via the ::tclDefaultLibrary variable. This should correct a
-	problem with my 2004-06-11 commit. Better solutions still in the
-	works. Thanks to Joe Mistachkin for pointing out the breakage.
-
-2004-06-16  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/library.n:	Moved variables ::auto_oldpath and

-
-2004-06-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/binary.n: Added some notes to the documentation of the 'a'
-	format to address the point raised in [RFE 768852].
-
-2004-06-15  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_EXTRA_CFLAGS): set to @CFLAGS@, which is
-	the configure-time CFLAGS. Addendum to m4 change on 2004-05-26.
-
-2004-06-14  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Corrected compilation flags for tclPkgConfig.c so
-	that it doesn't require Stubs.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Removed comment stating that
-	TclInitEmbeddedConfigurationInformation needs Stubs; with the change
-	above, the comment is now erroneous.
-
-2004-06-11  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/Encoding.3:	Removed bogus claims about tcl_libPath.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Init):	Stopped setting the
-	tcl_libPath variable. [tclInit] can get all its directories without it.
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	Modified test code that made use of
-	tcl_libPath variable.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:	Stopped setting the tclDefaultLibrary variable,
-	execept on the Mac OS X platform with HAVE_CFBUNDLE. In that
-	configuration we should seek some way to make use of the TIP 59
-	facilities and get rid of that usage of tclDefaultLibrary as well.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Updated [tclInit] to make $env(TCL_LIBRARY) an
-	absolute path, and to include the scriptdir,runtime configuration value
-	on the search path for init.tcl.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:	The routines Tcl_Init() and TclSourceRCFile()
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	had identical implementations for both win and
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	unix. Moved to a single generic implementation.
-	* generic/tclMain.c:
-	* library/init.tcl:
-	* generic/tclInitScript.h (removed):
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* win/tcl.dsp:
-
-	* unix/configure.in:	Updated TCL_PACKAGE_PATH value to handle
-	* win/configure.in:	--libdir configuration.
-
-	* unix/configure.in:	autoconf-2.57
-	* win/configure.in:
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Moved call to
-	TclInitEmbeddedConfigurationInformation() earlier in
-	Tcl_CreateInterp() so that other parts of interp creation and
-	initialization may access and use the config values.
-
-2004-06-11  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Restored the 'setargv' procedure when compiling
-	with mingw. Apparently, the command line parsing in mingw doesn't work
-	as well as that in vc++, and the result was (1) that winPipe-8.19
-	failed, and (2) that 'make test' would work at all only with
-	TESTFLAGS='-singleproc 1'. [Bug 967195]
-
-2004-06-10  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed forceful setting of the private cached
-	current working directory rep from within the Tcl_FSChdir(). We
-	delegate this task to the Tcl_FSGetCwd() which does this task anyway.
-	The relevant code is still present but disabled temporarily until the
-	change proves correct. The Tcl test suite passes all test with the
-	given change so I suppose it is good enough.
-
-2004-06-10  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):	Disabled addition of
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):	relative-to-executable
-	directories to the library search path. A first step in reform of
-	Tcl's startup process.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Attempts to directly run ./tclsh or ./tcltest out of a build directory
-	will either fail, or will make use of an installed script library in
-	preference to the one in the source tree. Use `make shell` or `make
-	runtest` instead.
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	Modified tests to suit above changes.
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:	Corrected [file tail] results when operating
-	on a path produced by TclNewFSPathObj(). [Bug 970529]
-
-2004-06-09  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: partially corrected [Bug 932314]. Also
-	corrected return values of Tcl_FSChdir() to reflect those of the
-	underlying platform-specific call. Originally, return codes were mixed
-	with those of Tcl.
-
-2004-06-08  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-

-
-2004-06-07  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-06-05  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Corrected Tcl_WideInt declarations so that the mingw
-	build works again.
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:			Changes to the tests for clock
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:			frequency in Tcl_WinTime so
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:		that any clock frequency is
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:		accepted provided that all
-	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:		CPU's in the system share a
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:		common chip, and hence,
-	* tests/platform.test (platform-1.3):	presumably, a common clock.
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclWinCPUID):	This change necessitated a
-	* win/tclWinTest.c (TestwincpuidCmd)	small burst of assembly code
-	* win/tclWinTime.c (Tcl_GetTime):	to read CPU ID information,
-	which was added as TclWinCPUID in the internal Stubs. To test this
-	code in the common case of a single-processor machine, a
-	'testwincpuid' command was added to tclWinTest.c, and a test case in
-	platform.test. Thanks to Jeff Godfrey and Richard Suchenwirth for
-	reporting this bug. [Bug 976722]
-
-2004-06-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Restored #include <stdio.h> to tcl.h,
-	rejecting the "fix" for "Bug" 945570. Tcl_FSSeek() needs the values of
-	SEEK_SET, etc. and too many extensions rely on tcl.h providing stdio.h
-	for them.
-
-2004-06-02  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpFindExecutable): when using GetModuleFileNameA
-	(Win9x), convert from CP_ACP to WCHAR then convert back to utf-8.
-	Adjunct to 2004-04-07 fix.
-
-2004-06-02  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-6.1): blocking set to 1 before closing
-	to ensure we get an exitcode. The windows pipe channel driver doesn't
-	differentiate between a blocking and non-blocking close just yet, but
-	will soon. Part of [Bug 947693]

-2004-06-01  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: check for either MSDEVDIR or MSVCDIR being in the
-	environment, for VC7. [Bug 942214]
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): -buffersize wasn't
-	understanding hexidecimal notation nor was reporting number conversion
-	errors. The behavior to silently ignore settings outside the
-	acceptable range of Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize (<10 or >1M) is
-	unchanged. This silent ignoring behavior might be up for review soon.
-
-2004-05-30  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:  Reworked the win implementation of Tcl_WaitPid to
-	support exitcodes in the 'signed short' range. Even though this range
-	is non-portable, it is valid on windows. Detection of exception codes
-	are now more accurate. Previously, an application that exited with
-	ExitProcess((DWORD)-1); was improperly reported as exiting with
-	SIGABRT.
-
-2004-05-30  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c: Added comments describing the purposes of each
-	function in the limit implementation and rewrote the names of some
-	non-public functions for greater clarity of purpose.
-	* doc/interp.n: Added note about what happens when a limited
-	interpreter creates a slave interpreter.
-	* doc/Limit.3: Added manual page for the resource limit subsystem's C
-	API. [Bug 953903]
-
-2004-05-29  Joe English	 <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/global.n, doc/interp.n, doc/lrange.n: Fix minor markup errors.
-
-2004-05-28  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/*.n: Added examples to many (too many to list) more man pages.
-
-2004-05-25  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclVar.c: using (ptrdiff_t) instead of (int) casting to
-	correct compiler warnings [Bug 961657], reported by Bob Techentin.
-
-2004-05-27  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/clock.test: Added a single test for the presence of %G in
-	[clock format], and conditioned out the clock-10.x series if they're
-	all going to fail because of a broken strftime() call. [Bug 961714]
-
-2004-05-27  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (CompareStringKeys): Added #ifdef to allow people
-	to instruct this function to use strcmp(). [FRQ 951168]
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Moved declarations into #if guards so they only
-	happen when required.
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: Guard declaration of strtod() so it is only
-	enabled when we don't have a declaration in stdlib.h
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread):	Added declarations
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c (AlarmHandler):		and casts so that
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtyModemStatusStr):	all functions are
-	* generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd):		defined before use
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (InvalidateDictChain):	and no cross-type
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):	uses are performed.
-
-	The overall effect is to make building with gcc with the additional
-	flags -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes produce no increase in
-	the total number of warnings (except for main(), which is undeclared
-	for traditional reasons.)
-
-2004-05-26  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:  Rework configure ordering to TCL_LINK_LIBS,
-	* unix/tcl.m4:	     ENABLE_SHARED, CONFIG_CFLAGS, & ENABLE_SYMBOLS
-	* unix/configure:    before TCL_EARLY_FLAGS and TCL_64BIT_FLAGS
-	* unix/configure.in: (about 400 lines earlier) in configure.in. This
-	forces CFLAGS configuration to be done before many tests, which is
-	needed for 64-bit builds and may affect other builds. Also make
-	CONFIG_CFLAGS append to CFLAGS directly instead of using EXTRA_CFLAGS,
-	and have LDFLAGS append to any existing value. [Bug 874058]
-	* unix/dltest/Makefile.in: change EXTRA_CFLAGS to DEFS
-
-2004-05-26  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Correction to debug prints and testing
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl:	if TCLTEST_OPTIONS value. Corrected
-	* tests/tcltest.test:		double increment of numTestFiles in
-	-singleproc 1 configurations. Updated tcltest-19.1 to tcltest 2.1
-	behavior. Corrected tcltest-25.3 to not falsely report a failure in
-	tcltest.test. Bumped to tcltest 2.2.6. [Bugs 960560, 960926]
-
-2004-05-25  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/http.n (http::config): add -urlencoding option (default utf-8)
-	* library/http/http.tcl:     that specifies encoding conversion of
-	* library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: args for http::formatQuery. Previously
-	* tests/http.test:	     undefined, RFC 2718 says it should be
-	utf-8. 'http::config -urlencoding {}' returns previous behavior, which
-	will throw errors processing non-latin-1 chars. Bumped http package to
-	2.5.0.
-
-2004-05-25  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteScriptLimitCallback): Move all deletion

-
-2004-05-25  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-

-2004-05-25  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindNamespaceVar):
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-17.10-12): reverted commit of
-	2004-05-23 and removed the tests, as it interferes with the varname
-	resolver and there are apps that break (AlphaTk). A fix will have to
-	wait for Tcl9.
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: Caching of namespace variables disabled: no simple
-	way was found to avoid interfering with the resolver's idea of
-	variable existence. A cached varName may keep a variable's name in the
-	namespace's hash table, which is the resolver's criterion for
-	existence.
-
-	* tests/namespace.c (namespace-17.10): testing for interference
-	between varname caching and name resolver.
-
-2004-05-25  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/winFCmd.test: Correct test for the presence of a CD-ROM so

-
-2004-05-25  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test:	Protect against path being set

-	Delete interps when done.
-	* tests/stringComp.test:	stop re-use of string.test test names
-	* tests/regexpComp.test:	stop re-use of regexp.test test names
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-46.3): Verify [p] does not exist.
-	* tests/http.test:	Clear away the custom [bgerror] when done.
-	* tests/io.test:	Take care to use namespace variables.
-	* tests/autoMkindex.test (autoMkindex-5.2): Use variable "result"
-	that gets cleaned up.
-	* tests/exec.test:	Clean up the "path" array.
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-9.3): Initialize res, so prior values
-	cannot make the test fail.
-	* tests/execute.test (execute-8.1):  Updated to remove the trace set
-	on ::errorInfo. When left in place, that trace can cause later tests
-	to fail.

-2004-05-24  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (VerifyExprObjType): use GET_WIDE_OR_INT to

-	functions but was not yet WIDE_INT aware in them.
-
-2004-05-24  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (TclInitLimitSupport): Made limits work on
-	platforms where sizeof(void*)!=sizeof(int). [Bug 959193]
-
-2004-05-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/set.n: accurate description of name resolution process,
-	referring to namespace.n for details [Bug 959180]
-
-2004-05-23  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindNamespaceVar): [Bug 959052] fixed,
-	insuring that no "zombie" variables are found.
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupSimpleVar): comments re [Bug 736729]
-	(predecessor of [Bug 959052]) removed.
-	* tests/namespace.test: added tests 17.10-12
-
-	The patch modifies non-documented behaviour, and passes every test in
-	the testsuite. However, scripts relying on the old behaviour may
-	break.
-	Note that the only behaviour change concerns the creative writing of
-	unset variables. More precisely, which variable will be created when
-	neither a namespace variable nor a global variable by that name
-	exists, as defined by [info vars]. The new behaviour is that the
-	namespace resolution process deems a variable to exist exactly when
-	[info vars] finds it - ie, either it has value, or else it was "fixed"
-	by a call to [variable].
-	Note: this patch was removed on 2002-05-25.

-2004-05-22  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclObjLookupVar, TclObjUnsetVar2): fix for new (in
-	tcl8.4) exteriorisations of [Bug 736729] due to the use of
-	tclNsVarNameType obj types. Reenabling the use of this objType ("VAR
-	ref absolute" benchmark down to 66 ms, from 230). Added comments in
-	TclLookupSimpleVar explaining my current understanding of [Bug
-	736729].
-
-2004-05-22  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c: fix for [Bug 735335]. The use of tclNsVarNameType
-	objs is still disabled, pending resolution of [Bug 736729].
-
-2004-05-21  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-41.3): removed the {knownBug}
-	constraint: [Bug 231259] is closed since nov 2001, and the fix of [Bug
-	729692] (INST_START_CMD) makes the test succeed.
-
-2004-05-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Move a few declarations a
-	short distance so pre-C99 compilers can cope. Also fix so
-	TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG path compiles...
-
-2004-05-21  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): reorganised TEBC
-	automatic variables, defining them in tight blocks instead of at the
-	function level. This has three purposes:
-	- it simplifies the analysis of individual instructions
-	- it is preliminary work to the non-recursive engine
-	- it allows a better register allocation by the optimiser; under
-	gcc3.3, this results in up to 10% runtime in some tests
-

-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (TclLimitRemoveAllHandlers):
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (DeleteInterpProc):
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-34.7): Ensure that all limit callbacks are
-	deleted when their interpreters are deleted. [Bug 956083]
-
-2004-05-19  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): fix for an issue where
-	there was a sneak path from Tcl_DStringFree to SetErrorCode(0). The
-	result was that the error code could be reset between a call to
-	FindFirstFileEx and the check of its status return, leading to a
-	bizarre error return of {POSIX unknown {No error}}. (Found in
-	unplanned test - no incident logged at SourceForge.)
-
-2004-05-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-34.3): Rewrite this test to see if a time
-	limit can catch a tight bytecode loop, a maximally aggressive
-	denial-of-service attack.
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_LimitCheck): Fix the sense of checks to see
-	whether a time limit has been extended.
-
-	* tests/*.test: Many minor fixes, including ensuring that every test
-	is run (so constraints control whether the test is doing anything) and
-	making sure that constraints are always set using the API instead of
-	poking around inside tcltest's internal datastructures. Also got rid
-	of all trailing whitespace lines from the test suite!
-
-2004-05-19  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Fixed [SF Tcl Bug 943274]. This is the same problem
-	* generic/tclIO.h: as [SF Tcl Bug 462317], see ChangeLog entry
-	2001-09-26. The fix done at that time is incomplete. It is possible to
-	get around it if the actual read operation is defered and not executed
-	in the event handler itself. Instead of tracking if we are in an read
-	caused by a synthesized fileevent we now track if the OS has delivered
-	a true event = actual data and bypass the driver if a read finds that
-	there is no actual data waiting. The flag is cleared by a short or
-	full read.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for channel drivers.

-
-2004-05-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestgetintCmd): Made the tests in get.test check

-					     avoids that function.
-
-2004-05-18  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* compat/strftime.c (_fmt, ISO8601Week):
-	* doc/clock.n:
-	* tests/clock.test: Major rework to the handling of ISO8601 week
-	numbers. Now passes all the %G and %V test cases on Windows, Linux and
-	Solaris [Bugs 500285, 500389, and 852944]
-
-2004-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-05-18  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>

-	909911]
-
-2004-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/lsearch.n: Improve clarity (based on [Patch 955361] by Peter

-
-2004-05-18  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-

-
-2004-05-17  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/global.n, doc/uplevel.n: Added an example.
-
-	* tests/info.test (info-3.1): Corrected test result back to what it
-	used to be in Tcl 7.* now that command counts are being correctly kept
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:INST_START_CMD): Make sure that the
-	command-count is always advanced. Allows TIP#143 limits to tell that
-	work is being done.
-
-	* doc/list.n: Updated example to fit with the unified format.
-	* doc/seek.n: Added some examples.
-
-2004-05-17  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c:

-	case-sensitive.
-
-2004-05-17  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/OpenFileChnl.3: Documented type of 'offset' argument to Tcl_Seek
-	was wrong. [Bug 953374]
-
-2004-05-16  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): remove one level of
-	indirection for compiledLocals addressing.
-
-2004-05-16  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_CALL_FUNC1): bugfix; restored
-	(DE)CACHE_STACK_INFO pair around the call - the user defined math
-	function could cause a recursive call to TEBC.
-
-2004-05-16  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteInterp):
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_START_CMD): interp deletion now modifies
-	the compileEpoch, eliminating the need for the check for interp
-	deletion in INST_START_CMD.
-
-2004-05-16  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: changed implementation of {expand}, last
-	chance while in alpha as ...
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Scripts precompiled with ProComp under previous tcl8.5a versions may
-	malfunction due to changed instruction numbers for
-	INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM, INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM and INST_START_CMD.
-
-2004-05-14  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:	     Promoted TclpLocaltime and TclpGmtime
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:     from Unix-specific stubs to the generic
-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: internal Stubs table. Reran 'genstubs'
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: Changed a buggy 'GMT' timezone specification
-			      to the correct 'GMT0'. [Bug 922848]
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Moved TclpGmtime and TclpLocaltime to
-			      unix/tclUnixTime.c where they belong.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c (TclpGmtime, TclpLocaltime, TclpGetTimeZone,
-			      ThreadSafeGMTime [removed],
-			      ThreadSafeLocalTime [removed],
-			      SetTZIfNecessary, CleanupMemory):
-	Restructured to make sure that the same mutex protects all calls to
-	localtime, gmtime, and tzset. Added a check in front of those calls to
-	make sure that the TZ env var hasn't changed since the last call to
-	tzset, and repeat tzset if necessary. [Bug 942078] Removed a buggy
-	test of the Daylight Saving Time information in 'gettimeofday' in
-	favor of applying 'localtime' to a known value. [Bug 922848]
-
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-3.14): Added test to make sure that changes
-	to $env(TZ) take effect immediately.
-
-	* win/tclWinTime.c (TclpLocaltime, TclpGmtime): Added porting layer
-	for 'localtime' and 'gmtime' calls.
-
-2004-05-14  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: the math functions receive a pointer to top of
-	the stack (tosPtr) instead of the execution environment (eePtr). First
-	step towards a change in the execution stack management - it is now
-	only used within TEBC.
-
-2004-05-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	TIP#143 IMPLEMENTATION
-

-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Limit*): Public limit API.
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* tests/interp.test: Basic tests of command limits.
-
-	* doc/binary.n:		TIP#129 IMPLEMENTATION [Patch 858211]
-	* generic/tclBinary.c:	Note that the test suite probably has many more
-	* tests/binary.test:	failures now due to alterations in constraints.
-
-2004-05-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	Optimisations for INST_START_CMD [Bug 926164].
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): avoid emitting
-	INST_START_CMD as the first instruction in a bytecoded Tcl_Obj. It is
-	not needed, as the checks are done before calling TEBC.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peephole
-	optimisation: check at INST_POP if the next instruction is
-	INST_START_CMD, in which case we fall through.
-
-2004-05-11  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-	* doc/scan.n: Added examples.
-
-2004-05-10  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Moved non-obvious appending
-	logic to outside the loop and added commentary for its purpose. Also
-	use the existence of contents in the linePtr rather than the scratch
-	DString post the append, as this more clear.
-
-	(TclpCreateProcess): When under NT, with no console, and executing a
-	DOS application, the path priming does not need an ending space as
-	BuildCommandLine() will do this for us.
-
-2004-05-08  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c:

-2004-05-07  Chengye Mao <chengye.geo@yahoo.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: refixed bug 789040 re-entered in rev 1.41. Let's

-
-2004-05-06  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclFreeObj): made TclFreeObj use the new macro
-	TclFreeObjMacro(), so that the allocation and freeing of Tcl_Obj is
-	defined in a single spot (the macros in tclInt.h), with the exception
-	of the TCL_MEM_DEBUG case.
-	The #ifdef logic for the corresponding macros has been reformulated to

-
-2004-05-05  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (SocketEventProc) : connect errors should fire both
-	the readable and writable handlers because this is how it works on
-	UNIX [Bug 794839]
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem):
-	FreeEncoding(systemEncoding); moved to before the hash table iteration
-	as it was causing a double free attempt under some conditions.

-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): Fixed [SF Tcl Bug 930851].
-	When changing the eofchar we have to zap the related flags to prevent
-	them from prematurely aborting the next read.
-
-2004-04-25  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 940281]. Tcl_FSJoinPath will now
-	always return a valid Tcl_Obj when the input is valid.
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to [Bug 931823] for a more consistent
-	Tcl_FSPathSeparator() implementation which allows filesystems not to
-	implement their Tcl_FSFilesystemSeparatorProc if they wish to use the
-	default '/'. Also fixed associated memory leak seen with, e.g., tclvfs
-	package.
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: documented Tcl_FSJoinPath return values more
-	clearly, and Tcl_FSFilesystemSeparatorProc requirements.

-2004-04-23  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Removed my mistake from 4/19 of adding an exit
-	handler to TclWinInit. TclWinEncodingsCleanup called from
-	TclFinalizeFilesystem does the Tcl_FreeEncoding for us.
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel): Case for CloseHandle
-	returning zero and not throwing a
-	RaiseException(EXCEPTION_INVALID_HANDLE) now being done.
-
-2004-04-22  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: TclSetLibraryPath's use of caching the stringrep
-	of the pathPtr object to TclGetLibraryPath called from another thread
-	was ineffective if the original's stringrep had been invalidated as
-	what happens when it gets muted to a list.
-
-	* win/tclWinTime.c: If the Tcl_ExitProc (StopCalibration) is called
-	from the stack frame of DllMain's PROCESS_DETACH, the wait operation
-	should timeout and continue.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclThread.c:
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Provisions made so masterLock, initLock, allocLock
-	and joinLock mutexes can be recovered during Tcl_Finalize.

-2004-04-22  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/switch.n: Reworked the examples to be more systematically named
-	and to cover some TIP#75 capabilities.
-
-	* doc/cd.n: Documentation clarification from David Welton.
-
-	* doc/exec.n: Added some examples, Windows ones from Arjen Markus and
-	Unix ones by myself.
-
-2004-04-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/Hash.3: Added note to Tcl_{First,Next}HashEntry docs that
-	deleting the element they return is supported (and is in fact the only
-	safe update you can do to the structure of a hashtable while an
-	iteration is going over it.)
-
-	* doc/bgerror.n: Added example from David Welton. [Patch 939473]
-
-	* doc/after.n: Added examples from David Welton. [Patch 938820]
-
-2004-04-19  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Added an exit handler in TclWinInit() so
-	tclWinTCharEncoding could be freed during Tcl_Finalize().
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Added FreeEncoding(systemEncoding) in
-	TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem because its ref count was incremented in
-	TclInitEncodingSubsystem.
-
-2004-04-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-04-19  Kevin B. Kenny   <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj) Corrected "short circuit"
-	conversion of int to double. Reported by Jeff Hobbs on the Tcl'ers
-	Chat.
-
-2004-04-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-04-16  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3: Corrected documentation of Tcl_FSUtime, and the
-	corresponding filesystem driver Tcl_FSUtimeProc. [Bug 935838]
-
-2004-04-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/socket.n: Added example from [Patch 936245].

-
-2004-04-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (Tcl_ClockObjCmd): Minor fault in a [clock
-	clicks] error message.
-
-2004-04-07  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): note that WIN32_CE is
-	also a unicode platform.
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (TclFindEncodings, Tcl_FindExecutable):
-	* generic/tclInt.h:			    Correct handling of UTF
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): data that is actually
-	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpFindExecutable):    "clean", allowing the
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):   loading of Tcl from paths
-	that contain multi-byte chars on Windows [Bug 920667]
-
-	* win/configure:    define TCL_LIB_FLAG, TCL_BUILD_LIB_SPEC,
-	* win/configure.in: TCL_LIB_SPEC, TCL_PACKAGE_PATH in tclConfig.sh.
-
-2004-04-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	Patch 922727 committed.	 Implements three changes:
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Reworked the Tcl header files into a clean
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:	hierarchy where tcl.h < tclPort.h < tclInt.h
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:	and every C source file should #include
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:	at most one of those files to satisfy its
-	declaration needs. tclWinInt.h and tclWinPort.h also better organized
-	so that tclWinPort.h includes the Windows implementation of
-	cross-platform declarations, while tclWinInt.h makes declarations that
-	are available on Windows only.
-
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (TCL_NO_MATH):	Deleted the generic/tclMath.h
-	* generic/tclMath.h (removed):		header file. The internal Tcl
-	* macosx/Makefile (PRIVATE_HEADERS):	header, tclInt.h, has a
-	* win/tcl.dsp:				#include <math.h> directly,
-	and file external to Tcl needing libm should do the same.
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (WIN_OBJS):	Deleted the win/tclWinMtherr.c file.
-	* win/makefile.bc (TCLOBJS):	It's a vestige from matherr() days
-	* win/makefile.vc (TCLOBJS):	gone by.
-	* win/tcl.dsp:
-	* win/tclWinMtherr.c (removed):
-
-	End Patch 922727.
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-3.1):	Default encoding on Darwin
-	systems is utf-8. Thanks to Steven Abner (tauvan). [Bug 928808]
-
-2004-04-06  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-18.2): Added constraint because
-	access(...,X_OK) is defined to be permitted to be meaningless when
-	running as root, and OSX exhibits this. [Bug 929892]
-
-2004-04-02  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: removed the macro TCL_ALIGN() from tclInt.h,
-	replaced by the static macro ALIGN() in tclCompile.c [Bug 926445]
-
-2004-04-02  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: removed redundant #ifdef _TCLINT [Bug 928415],
-	reported by tauvan.
-
-2004-04-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/tcltest.test: Corrected constraint typos: "nonRoot" ->
-	"notRoot". Thanks to Steven Abner (tauvan). [Bug 928353]
-
-2004-04-01  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:  Removed obsolete tclBlockTime* declarations. [Bug
-	926454]
-
-2004-04-01  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: Fix to privately reported vfs bug with 'glob
-	-type d -dir . *' across a vfs boundary. No tests for this are
-	currently possible without effectively moving tclvfs into Tcl's test
-	suite.
-
-2004-03-31  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/msgcat.n:	Clarified message catalog file encodings. [Bug 811457]
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: Updated internals to make use of [dict]s
-	to store message catalog data and to use [source -encoding utf-8] to
-	access catalog files. Thanks to Michael Sclenker. [Patch 875055, RFE
-	811459] Corrected [mcset] to be able to successfully set a translation
-	to the empty string. [mcset $loc $src {}] was incorrectly set the $loc
-	translation of $src back to $src. Also changed [ConvertLocale] to
-	minimally require a non-empty "language" part in the locale value. If
-	not, an error raised prompts [Init] to keep looking for a valid locale
-	value, or ultimately fall back on the "C" locale. [Bug 811461].
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:	Bump to msgcat 1.4.1.
-
-2004-03-30  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey): Cleaned up. This function is not
-	faster, but it is a little bit clearer.
-	* generic/tclLiteral.c (HashString): Applied logic from HashObjKey.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (HashObjKey): Rewrote to fix fault which hashed
-	every single-character object to the same hash bucket. The new code is
-	shorter, simpler, clearer, and (happily) faster.
-
-2004-03-30  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC): reverting to the previous method for
-	async tests in TEBC, as the new method turned out to be too costly.
-	Async tests now run every 64 instructions.
-
-2004-03-30  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	    New instruction code INST_START_CMD that
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	    allows checking the bytecode's validity
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	    [Bug 729692] and the interp's readyness
-	* tests/interp.test (18.9): [Bug 495830] before running the command.
-	* tests/proc.test (7.1):    It also changes the mechanics of the async
-	* tests/rename.test (6.1):  tests in TEBC, doing it now at command
-	start instead of every 16 instructions.
-
-2004-03-30  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c:  Fix to Windows glob where the pattern is a
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:	  volume relative path or a network share [Bug
-	* tests/fileName.test:	  898238]. On windows 'glob' will now return
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:  the results of 'glob /foo/bar' and 'glob
-	\\foo\\bar' as 'C:/foo/bar', i.e. a correct absolute path (rather than
-	a volume relative path).
-
-	Note that the test suite does not test commands like
-	'glob //Machine/Shared/*' (on a network share).
-
-2004-03-30  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:	  Fix to filename bugs recently
-	* tests/fileName.test:	  introduced [Bug 918320].
-
-2004-03-29  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main, StdinProc):	Append newline only
-	* tests/basic.test (basic-46.1):		to incomplete scripts
-	as part of multi-line script construction. Do not add an extra
-	trailing newline to the complete script. [Bug 833150]
-
-2004-03-28  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): corrected possible segfault
-	when a compilation returns TCL_OUTLINE_COMPILE after having grown the
-	compile environment [Bug 925121].
-
-2004-03-27  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/array.n: added documentation for trace-realted behaviour of

-	another volume relative bug found while testing.
-
-2004-03-24  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-	accurate. I removed the check on the case result==(WAIT_OBJECT_0 + 1)
-	This was having the error of falling into GetMessage and waiting there

-	* win/tclWinPort.h: If MWMO_ALERTABLE is not defined in winuser.h then
-	define it. This is needed for Mingw.
-
-2004-03-05  Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c: Modified TesteventObjCmd to use a
-	Tcl_QueuePosition in place of an 'int' for the enumerated queue
-	position, to avoid a compiler warning on SGI. [Bug 771960]
-
-2004-03-05  Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/registry.test: Applied fix from [Patch 910174] to make the test
-	for an English-language system include any country code, rather than
-	just English-United States.1252. Thanks to Pat Thoyts for the changes.
-
-2004-03-04  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/registry.test: Applied fixed from [Bug 766159] to skip two
-	tests on Win98 that depend on a Unicode registry (NT specific).
-
-2004-03-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclParseInit):	Factored the common code
-	* generic/tclParse.c (TclParseInit):	for initializing a Tcl_Parse
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:		struct into one routine.
-
-2004-03-04  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl:  Added TIP #100 support to the
-	* win/tclWinReg.c:	     registry package [patch 903831]
-	This provides a Windows test of the TIP #100 mechanism and a sample to
-	show how unloading an extension can be done.
-
-2004-03-04  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/dltest/pkgua.c: Fix minor syntax problems. [Bug 909288]
-
-2004-03-03  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	*** 8.5a1 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
-
-	* changes: updated for 8.5a1
-
-2004-03-03  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: default environment variable for VC++ is %MSDevDir%
-	not %MSVCDir%, although vcvars32.bat sets both.
-
-	* win/tclWinNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent) : Allows an idling notifier to
-	service "Asynchronous Procedure Calls" from its wait state. Only
-	useful for extension authors who decide they might want to try
-	"completion routines" with WriteFileEx(), as an example. From
-	experience, I recommend that "completion ports" should be used instead
-	as the execution of the callbacks are more managable.

-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TcpGetOptionProc): Stop memory leak with very
-	long hostnames. [Bug 888777]
-
-2004-02-25  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinDde.c: Removed some gcc warnings - except for the

-
-2004-02-23  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/regc_locale.c (cclass): Buffer was having its size reset
-	instead of being released => memleak. [Bug 902562]
-
-2004-02-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclLoad.c (Tcl_LoadObjCmd): Fixed memory leak due to an
-	improper error exit route.
-
-2004-02-20  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (SocketThreadExitHandler): Don't call
-	TerminateThread when WaitForSingleObject returns a timeout.
-	Tcl_Finalize called from DllMain will pause all threads. Trust that
-	the thread will get the close notice at a later time if it does ever
-	wake up before being cleaned up by the system anyway.
-
-2004-02-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/tcltest.n:
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Changed -verbose default value to
-	{body error} so that detailed information on unexpected errors in
-	tests is provided by default, even after the fix for [Bug 725253]
-
-2004-02-17  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-7.1):
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): ensure the std fds exist to
-	prevent crash condition [Bug 772288]
-
-2004-02-17  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Bozo mistake in memory
-	releasing order when in an error case. [Bug 898910]
-
-2004-02-16  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TclTraceExecutionObjCmd)
-	(TclTraceCommandObjCmd): fix possible mem leak in trace info.
-
-2004-02-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (AppendEnvironment): Use the tail component of the
-	passed in lib path instead of just blindly using lib+4. That worked
-	when lib was "lib/..." but fails for other values. Thanks go to
-	Patrick Samson for pointing this out.
-
-2004-02-10  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/nmakehlp.c: better macro grepping logic.
-
-2004-02-07  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:
-	* win/tcl.rc:
-	* win/tclsh.rc: Added an 'unchecked' option to the OPTS macro so a
-	core built with symbols can be linked to the non-debug enabled C
-	run-time. As per discussion with Kevin Kenny. Called like this:
-
-		nmake -af makefile.vc OPTS=unchecked,symbols
-
-	This clarifies the meaning of the 'g' naming suffix to mean only that
-	the binary requires the debug enabled C run-time. Whether the binary
-	contains symbols or not is a different condition.
-
-2004-02-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/clock.n:	Removed reference to non-existent [file ctime].
-
-2004-02-05  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* docs/tclvars.n: Added clarification of the tcl_platform(debug) var
-	that it only refers to the flavor of the C run-time, and not whether
-	the core contains symbols.
-
-2004-02-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (SkipToChar): Corrected CONST and type-casting
-	issues that caused compiler warnings.
-
-2004-02-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (StoreStatData): Removed improper refcount
-	decrement of the varName parameter. This error was causing segfaults
-	following test cmdAH-28.7.
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected references to non-existent
-	$name variable in [cleanupTests]. [Bug 833637]
-
-2004-02-03  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Corrected parsing of single command
-	line argument (option with missing value) [Bug 833910]
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl:	Bump to version 2.2.5.
-
-2004-02-02  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Ungets): Fixes improper filling of the channel
-	buffer. This is the buffer before the splice. [Bug 405995]
-
-2004-02-01  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test: more pass-thru commandline verifications.
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Special case quoting for '{'
-	not required by the c-runtimes's parse_cmdline().
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Removed our custom setargv() in favor of the work
-	provided by the c-runtime. [Bug 672938]
-
-	* win/nmakehlp.c: defensive techniques to avoid static buffer
-	overflows and a couple envars upsetting invocations of cl.exe and
-	link.exe. [Bug 885537]
-
-	* tests/winPipe.test: Added proof that BuildCommandLine() is not doing
-	the "N backslashes followed a quote -> insert N * 2 + 1 backslashes
-	then a quote" rule needed for the crt's parse_cmdline().
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c: Fixed BuildCommandLine() to pass the new cases.
-
-2004-01-30  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Use the -GZ compiler switch when building for
-	symbols. This is supposed to emulate the release build better to avoid
-	hiding problems that only show themselves in a release build.
-
-2004-01-29  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 883143] in file normalization
-
-2004-01-29  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n:
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c
-	* generic/tclTest.c
-	* library/init.tcl
-	* mac/tclMacFile.c
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: fix to [Bug 886352] where 'file copy -force'
-	had inconsistent behaviour wrt target files with insufficient
-	permissions, particular from vfs->native fs. Behaviour of '-force' is
-	now always consistent (and now consistent with behaviour of 'file
-	delete -force'). Added new tests and documentation and cleaned up the
-	'simplefs' test filesystem.
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c
-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: made native filesystems more robust to C code
-	which asks for mount lists.
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 886607] removing warning/error
-	with some compilers.
-
-2004-01-28  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (SetBooleanFromAny): Rewrite to do more efficient
-	string->bool conversion.
-	Many other minor whitespace/style fixes to this file too.
-
-2004-01-27  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/nmakehlp.c: Use '.\nul' as the sourcefile name instead of 'nul'
-	so VC 5.2 doesn't try searching the path for it and failing with a
-	possible dialogbox popping up about having to add a CD to an empty
-	drive. Also added a SetErrorMode() call to disable any dialogs that
-	cl.exe or link.exe might create. [Bug 885537]
-
-2004-01-22  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/file.n: clarified documentation of 'file system' [Bug 883825]
-	* tests/fCmd.test: improved test result in failure case.
-
-2004-01-22  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: 3 new tests
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 879555] in file normalization.
-	* doc/filename.n: small clarification to Windows behaviour with
-	filenames like '.....', 'a.....', '.....a'.
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: slight improvement to native cwd caching on
-	Windows.
-
-2004-01-21  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* doc/Panic.3:	Mentions of 'panic' and 'panicVA' removed from the
-	documentation.
-
-2004-01-21  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* generic/tcl.decls:
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c
-	* generic/tclDecls.h
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c
-	* generic/tclFileName.c
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c
-	* generic/tclInt.decls
-	* generic/tclInt.h
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h

-	* unix/tclUnixFile.c
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c
-	* win/tclWinFile.c
-	* win/tclWinInt.h
-
-	Three main issues accomplished: (1) cleaned up variable names in the
-	filesystem code so that 'pathPtr' is used throughout. (2) applied a
-	round of filesystem optimisation with better handling and caching of
-	relative and absolute paths, requiring fewer conversions. (3)
-	clarifications to the documentation, particularly regarding the
-	acceptable refCounts of objects. Some new tests added. Tcl benchmarks
-	show a significant improvement over 8.4.5, and on Windows typically a
-	small improvement over 8.3.5 (Unix still appears to require
-	optimisation). TCL_FILESYSTEM_VERSION_2 introduced, but for internal
-	use only. There should be no public incompatibilities from these
-	changes. Thanks to dgp for extensive testing.
-
-2004-01-19  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid): Fixed a thread-safety problem with
-	the process list. The delayed cut operation after the wait was going
-	stale by being outside the list lock. It now cuts within the lock and
-	does a locked splice for when it needs to instead. [Bug 859820]
-
-2004-01-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompile.h: Two new opcodes,
-	INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM and INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM, that have operand(s) of
-	new type OPERAND_IDX4 which represents indexes into things like lists
-	(and perhaps other things eventually.)
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Implementation of the new
-	opcodes. INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM does a simple [lindex] with either front-
-	or end-based simple indexing. INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM does an [lrange]
-	with front- or end-based simple indexing for both the reference to the
-	first and last items in the range.
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLassignCmd): Generate bytecode for
-	the [lassign] command.
-
-2004-01-17  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c: added #pragma comment(lib, "advapi32.lib") when
-	compiling under VC++ so we don't need to specify it when linking.
-
-2004-01-17  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LassignObjCmd): Add more shimmering
-	protection for when the list is also one of the variables.
-
-	BASIC IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#57
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LassignObjCmd): Implementation of the
-	[lassign] command that takes full advantage of Tcl's object API.
-	* doc/lassign.n: New file documenting the command.
-	* tests/cmdIL.test (cmdIL-6.*): Test suite for the command.
-
-2004-01-15  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinReg.c: Placed the requirement for advapi.lib into the
-	object file itself with #pragma comment (lib, ...) when built with
-	VC++. This will simplify linking for users of the static library.
-
-	* win/rules.vc: Added new 'fullwarn' to the CHECKS commandline macro;
-	sets $(FULLWARNINGS).
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: Removed 'advapi.lib' from $(baselibs). Added new
-	logic to crank-up the warning levels for both compile and link when
-	$(FULLWARNINGS) is set. Some clean-up with how the resource files are
-	built and how -DTCL_USE_STATIC_PACKAGES is sent when compiling the
-	shells.
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Small change in how TCL_USE_STATIC_PACKAGES is
-	used.
-
-	* win/tcl.rc:
-	* win/tclsh.rc: Some clean-up with how the resource files are built.
-	Fixed 'OriginalFilename' problem that still thought a debug suffix was
-	still 'd', now is 'g'.
-
-2004-01-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (TraceDictPath, DictExistsCmd): Adjusted
-	behaviour of [dict exists] so a failure to look up a dictionary along
-	the path of dicts doesn't trigger an error. This is how it was
-	documented to behave previously... [Bug 871387]
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: Assorted dict fixes from Peter Spjuth relating
-	to [Bug 876170].
-	(SetDictFromAny): Make sure that lists retain their ordering even when
-	converted to dictionaries and back.
-	(TraceDictPath): Correct object reference count handling!
-	(DictReplaceCmd, DictRemoveCmd): Stop object leak.
-	(DictIncrCmd,DictLappendCmd,DictAppendCmd,DictSetCmd,DictUnsetCmd):
-	Simpler handling of reference counts when assigning to variables.
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): Memory leak stress test
-
-2004-01-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd):  Silence compiler warnings.
-
-	Patch 876451: restores performance of [return]. Also allows forms such
-	as [return -code error $msg] to be bytecompiled.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Factored Tcl_ReturnObjCmd() into two pieces:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	TclMergeReturnOptions(), which can parse the
-	options to [return], check their validity, and create the
-	corresponding return options dictionary, and TclProcessReturn(), which
-	takes that return options dictionary and performs the [return]
-	operation.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: Rewrote TclCompileReturnCmd() to call
-	TclMergeReturnOptions() at compile time so the return options
-	dictionary is computed at compile time (when it is fully known). The
-	dictionary is pushed on the stack along with the result, and the code
-	and level values are included in the bytecode as operands. Also
-	supports optimized compilation of un[catch]ed [return]s from procs
-	with default options into the INST_DONE instruction.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Rewrote INST_RETURN instruction to retrieve
-	the code and level operands, pop the return options from the stack,
-	and call TclProcessReturn() to perform the [return] operation.
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	New utilities include TclEmitInt4 macro
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	and TclWordKnownAtCompileTime().
-
-	End Patch 876451.
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_GlobObjCmd): Latest changes to management
-	of the interp result by Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() exposed improper interp
-	result management in the [glob] command procedure. Corrected by
-	adopting the Tcl_SetObjResult(Tcl_NewStringObj) pattern. This stopped
-	a segfault in test filename-11.36. [Bug 877677]
-
-2004-01-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct, Tcl_WrongNumArgs):
-	Create fresh objects instead of using the one currently in the
-	interpreter, which isn't guaranteed to be fresh and unshared. The cost
-	for the core will be minimal because of the object cache, and this
-	fixes [Bug 875395].
-
-2004-01-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (CompileLandOrLorExpr): cosmetic changes.
-
-2004-01-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (CompileLandOrLorExpr): new logic, fewer
-	instructions. As a side effect, the instructions INST_LOR and
-	INST_LAND are now never used.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_JUMP*): small optimisation; fix a bug in
-	debug code.
-
-2004-01-11  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c (Tcl_ConditionNotify): condPtr must be dereferenced
-	to see if there are waiters else uninitialized datum is manipulated.
-	[Bug 849007 789338 745068]
-
-2004-01-09  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Renamed and deprecated #defines moved to within the
-	#ifndef TCL_NO_DEPRECATED block. This allows us to build Tcl to check
-	for deprecated functions in use, such as panic() and Tcl_Ckalloc(). By
-	request from DKF. Extensions that build with -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED now
-	have these macros as restricted.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:	 Added -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED usage to makefile.vc.
-	Called like this:   nmake -af makefile.vc CHECKS=nodep
-
-2004-01-09  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to infinite loop in TclFinalizeFilesystem

-	* generic/tcl.decls:  Destubbed TclTomMathInitializeStubs - it is in
-	* generic/tcl.h:      the stub library, not the main shared
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: library. Exported Tcl_InitBignumFromDouble.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:
-
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubLib.c:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Regenerated.
-
-	* generic/clock.tcl: Reverted to using the time zone abbreviation and
-	not its name to "stop the bleeding" on [Bug 1386377]. This is *not* a
-	good long-term solution, but there may not be one.
-
-	* libtommath/bn_mp_sqrt.c: Improved the initial approximation to the
-	square root, roughly doubling the speed of the routine. (This is a
-	local change that needs to be communicated to Tom.)
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Corrected a bug where tommath_class.h and
-	tommath_superclass.h were not installed, making it impossible for
-	client code to compile against the tommath stubs.
-
-	* library/tzdata: Updated to Olson's tzdata2005r. (Latest changes to
-	Daylight Saving Time in Canada, plus redefinition of the Posix-style
-	zones [e.g., EST5EDT] to be locale-independent.)
-
-	* libtommath: Updated to Tom St.Denis's release 0.37.
-
-2005-12-20  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (Tcl_GetMemoryInfo): Format values as longs
-	and not ints, so they are less likely to wrap on 64-bit machines.
-
-2005-12-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	Modified [string is double] to use
-	* tests/string.test:	TclParseNumber() to parse trailing whitespace.
-	Ensures consistency, and makes it easier to cleanup after invalid
-	internal reps left behind by parsing [Bugs 1360532 1382287].
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Added TCL_PARSE_NO_WHITESPACE to
-	* generic/tclScan.c:	TclParseNumber() calls since [scan] and [expr]
-	* tests/scan.test:	parsing don't want spaces in parsed numbers.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Added TCL_PARSE_NO_WHITESPACE flag to the
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:	TclParseNumber() interface.
-
-2005-12-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/Tcl.n: Clarify what is going on in variable substitution
-	following thread on comp.lang.tcl.
-
-2005-12-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictCmd): Ensure that we only do an
-	'endCatch' when there's a preceding 'beginCatch'. [Bug 1382528] Many
-	thanks to Anton Kovalenko for finding this and pointing out that it was
-	a catch stack handling problem!
-
-2005-12-14  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: workaround gcc warning "comparison is always
-	* generic/tclTest.c:   false due to limited range of data type".
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcode/project.pbxproj:
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj:
-	* unix/Makefile.in: add new tclTomMath* files.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: replace panic with Tcl_Panic.
-
-2005-12-13  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:    Added changes to export an additional stubs
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:   table to represent the 'libtommath' routines
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:   that Tcl uses and export them to callers.
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Reran 'genstubs'
-	* generic/tclInt.h:

-2005-12-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:DICT_FIRST,DICT_DONE): Only decrease the
-	references to the dictionary once the iteration completes. Do this by
-	storing the dict in the iterator context variable. [Bug 1379349] Thanks
-	to Ulrich Ring and Tobias Hippler for finding this.
-
-2005-12-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4, unix/configure: Fix sh quoting error reported in
-	bash-3.1+ [Bug 1377619] (schafer)
-
-2005-12-12  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/mathfunc.n: Changed two examples from the incorrect 'tcl::math::'
-	to 'tcl::mathfunc::' [Bug 1378818]
-
-2005-12-09  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Define MACHINE for gcc builds. The
-	lack of a definition of this variable in the manifest file was causing
-	a runtime error in wish built with gcc.
-
-2005-12-09  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/lsearch.test (lsearch-10.8..10):  If the -start is off the end,
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): searching should find nothing
-	at all. [Bug 1374778]
-
-2005-12-08  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in, win/makefile.vc: Add Win x64 and CE build support
-	* win/tcl.m4, win/configure:        CE still requires C code fixes.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: use struct __stat64 (not _stat64) for MSC_VER >= 1400
-	(i.e. latest Platform SDK).
-
-2005-12-07  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/socket.n: Cross-referenced the socket documentation better to the
-	fconfigure documentation on the topic of asynch sockets.
-	* doc/fconfigure.n: Added keyword to documentation of -blocking option
-	so that people looking for "asynch" can find it as well.
-
-2005-12-05  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h (Darwin): fix incorrect __DARWIN_UNIX03 configure
-	overrides that were originally copied from Darwin CVS (rdar://3693001)
-
-2005-12-05  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tools/tclZIC.tcl: Updated to reflect changes in calling sequence when
-	GetJulianDateFromEraYearMonthDay moved to C.
-	* library/tzdata: Regenerated from Olson's tzdata2005p.tar.gz - the
-	'systemv' changes appear not to affect Tcl's processing of the dates.
-
-2005-12-05  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure.in: move check for fts API to configure.in and run it
-	* unix/tcl.m4:       on all platforms, since Linux glibc2 and *BSDs
-	also have this; using fts is more efficient than a recursive
-	opendir/readdir.
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (TraverseUnixTree): add support to fts code for
-	platforms with stat64.
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: regen.
-
-2005-12-05  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/configure:     Use fts file API on Darwin if available.
-	* unix/tcl.m4:        Addresses file delete issues in readdir noted
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: in [Bug 1034337]. (steffen)
-	Remove redundant stat call for each file in DoCopyFile. (steffen)
-
-2005-12-02  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: Moved a tiny bit more of [clock format] from run
-	* library/clock.tcl: time to compile time, and fixed a l10n bug in the
-	process. [Bug 1371446]. Also, conditoned the call to SetupTimeZone to
-	speed the common case where TZData($timezone) already exists, and
-	achieved a puny speedup by making ::tcl::clock::getenv not throw
-	errors.
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Made some changes to support a 'make' command that
-	is present on some antiquated versions of Solaris.
-
-2005-12-01  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Continued rationalizing the code, eliminating
-	numerous redundant [mc] calls. Added another time boost by precompiling
-	a [::format] command to do the bulk of the work of [clock format].
-
-2005-12-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Add remaining dependency info. While automated
-	maintenance of this information would be good, having it at all is much
-	better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick...
-
-2005-12-01  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: fix warning.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): fix error when MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET unset
-	* unix/configure: regen.
-
-2005-11-30  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Add dependency information relating to tclCompile.h
-	since when the list of opcodes changes it is usually useful to rebuild
-	everything that depends on it (but which is nonetheless a small
-	fraction of the total set of Tcl source files).
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for bytecode savers/loaders. See below
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Arrange for very simple
-	[switch] invocations to be compiled into hash lookups into jump tables;
-	only a very specific kind of [switch] can be safely compiled this way,
-	but that happens to be the most common kind. This makes around 5-10%
-	difference to the speed of execution of clock.test.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:INST_JUMP_TABLE): New instruction to allow
-	for jumps to locations looked up in a hashtable. Requires a new AuxData
-	type, tclJumptableInfoType (supported by the functions DupJumptableInfo
-	and FreeJumptableInfo in tclCompCmds.c) so anything that saves bytecode
-	containing this *must* be updated!
-
-2005-11-30  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c: Fixed a bad refcount in previous commit that led
-	to a corrupted heap. Also silenced a warning that some compilers gave
-	about the excessively long constant for JULIAN_SEC_POSIX_EPOCH. Also
-	fixed a bug where [clock format] would fail in the :localtime zone for
-	times before the Posix Epoch. Thanks to Miguel Sofer for pointing out
-	all of these. Also rationalized the code a little bit by moving parts
-	of [clock scan] into C, eliminating some code that was duplicated in
-	the C and Tcl layers.
-
-2005-11-29  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Moved a big part of [clock format] down
-	* generic/tclClock.c:   to the C level in order to make it go faster.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:     Preliminary measurements suggest that it
-	* generic/clock.tcl:    more than doubles in speed with this change.
-
-2005-11-29  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): Allow [lsearch -regexp] to
-	process REs that contain backreferences. This expensive mode of
-	operation is only used if the RE would otherwise cause a compilation
-	failure. [Bug 1366683]
-
-2005-11-28  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tools/tclZIC.tcl (convertTimeOfDay): Corrected a typo that caused
-	wrong DST transitions in any time zone where the transition is
-	specified as local Standard Time (as opposed to wall-clock or UTC).
-	(Also updated the code to be bignum-safe.)
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-51.1): Added regression test for the above.
-	* library/tzdata: Updated to Olson's 'tzdata2005o' (changes for Cuba,
-	Nicaragua, Jordan, and Georgia) and regenerated. Thanks to Paul
-	Mackerras for reporting this problem.
-
-2005-11-27  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): add 64bit support, check for Tiger copyfile(),
-	add CFLAGS to SHLIB_LD to support passing -isysroot in env(CFLAGS) to
-	configure (flag can't be present twice, so can't be in both CFLAGS and
-	LDFLAGS during configure), don't use -prebind when deploying on 10.4,
-	define TCL_IO_TRACK_OS_FOR_DRIVER_WITH_BAD_BLOCKING (rdar://3171542).
-	(SC_ENABLE_LANGINFO, SC_TIME_HANDLER): add/fix caching, fix obsolete
-	autoconf macros. Sync with tk/unix/tcl.m4.
-
-	* unix/configure.in: fix obsolete autoconf macros, sync gratuitous
-	formatting/ordering differences with tk/unix/configure.in.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: add CFLAGS to tclsh/tcltest link to make executable
-	linking the same as during configure (needed to avoid losing any linker
-	relevant flags in CFLAGS, in particular flags that cannot be in
-	LDFLAGS). Avoid concurrent linking of tclsh and compiling of
-	tclTestInit.o or xtTestInit.o during parallel make.
-	(checkstubs, checkdoc, checkexports): dependency and Darwin fixes
-	(dist): add new macosx files.
-
-	* unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpDlopen): use NSADDIMAGE_OPTION_WITH_SEARCHING
-	on second NSAddImage only. [Bug 1204237]
-	(TclGuessPackageName): should not be MODULE_SCOPE.
-	(TclpLoadMemory): ppc64 and endian (i386) fixes, add support for
-	loading universal (fat) bundles from memory.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c:
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c: ppc64 and endian (i386) fixes.
-	(TclMacOSXCopyFileAttributes): add support for new Tiger copyfile() API
-	to enable copying of xattrs & ACLs by [file copy].
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: add Darwin specifc configure overrides for TCL_WIDE
-	defines to support fat compiles of ppc and ppc64 at the same time,
-	(replaces Darwin CVS fix by emoy, rdar://3693001). add/correct location
-	of version numbers in macosx files.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: clarify fat compile comment.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: add Darwin specifc configure overrides to support
-	fat compiles, where configure runs only once for multiple architectures
-	(replaces Darwin CVS fix by emoy, rdar://3693001).
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c:
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: fix #include order to support compile time
-	override of HAVE_COREFOUNDATION in tclUnixPort.h when building for

-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/default.pbxuser (new file):
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj (new file): new/updated
-	projects for Xcode 2.2 on 10.4, Xcode 1.5 on 10.3 & ProjectBuilder on
-	10.2, with native tcltest targets and support for universal (fat)
-	compiles.
-
-	* macosx/README: clarification/cleanup, document new Xcode projects and
-	universal (fat) builds via CFLAGS (i.e. all of ppc ppc64 i386 at once).
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/aclocal.m4:
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* unix/dltest/Makefile.in:
-	* macosx/configure.ac (new file): add support for inclusion of
-	unix/configure.in by macosx/configure.ac, allows generation of a config
-	headers enabled configure script in macosx (required by Xcode
-	projects).
-
-	* macosx/GNUmakefile: rename from Makefile to avoid overwriting by
-	configure run in tcl/macosx, add support for reusing configure cache,
-	build target fixes, remove GENERIC_FLAGS override now handled by
-	tcl.m4.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls: add Tcl_Main declaration as comment to avoid
-	'checkstubs' target complaining about it missing from stubs.
-
-	* generic/regex.h:
-	* generic/tclDate.c:

-	* generic/tclTrace.c:
-	* generic/tclVar.c:
-	* generic/tommath.h:
-	* tools/fix_tommath_h.tcl:
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: ensure externally visible symbols not contained
-	in stubs table are declared as MODULE_SCOPE (or as static if not used
-	outside of own source file). These changes allow 'make checkstubs' to
-	complete without error on Darwin with gcc 4.
-
-	* generic/rege_dfa.c (getvacant):
-	* generic/regexec.c (cfind):
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (CompileSubExpr):

-
-	* generic/regguts.h: only #define NDEBUG if not already #defined.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: sync whitespace & comments.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: remove declaration of obsolete&unused TclpMutex
-	API.
-
-	* unix/configure:
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: regen.
-
-2005-11-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Updated Makefile to new
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-libraries):  version of the http package.
-	This fixes the ifneeded/provide mismatch reported when trying to
-	require http. Should we maybe try to automatically extract the version
-	number from the http code to prevent future breakage ?
-
-	This follows the update of the version number by dgp on Nov 15 (No
-	entry found in the ChangeLog).
-
-2005-11-20  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStubLib.c: Don't set tclStubsPtr to 0 when
-	Tcl_PkgRequireEx() fails [Fix for [Bug 1091431] "Tcl_InitStubs failure
-	crashes wish"]
-
-2005-11-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-34.5): [Bug 1047286], added a second test
-	illustrating the role of "ns in callStack" in the ns's visibility
-	during deletion traces.
-
-2005-11-18  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/clock.n: Restored several missing lines near the %w format group
-	so that %w and %W are documented with their actual behaviour. [Bug
-	1359183]
-
-2005-11-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (TclFinalizeIOSubsystem): preserve statePtr until we
-	retrieve the next statePtr from it.
-
-2005-11-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (GetBignumFromObj): replace NULL with
-	tclEmptyStringRep to stop memcpy from complaining in a debug build
-	(the corresponding branch is eliminated by the optimiser otherwise).
-
-2005-11-18  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (TclFinalizeIOSubsystem): Applied Pat Thoyts' patch
-	for [Bug 1359094]. This moves the retrieval of the next channel state
-	to the end of the loop, as the called closeproc may close other
-	channels, i.e. modify the list we are iterating, invalidating any
-	pointer retrieved earlier.
-
-2005-11-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c:	Restored the SetListFromAny routine to the
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	"list" Tcl_ObjType, and restored the
-	Tcl_RegisterObjType() call for "list". This addresses the needs of some
-	"bridge" extensions to examine whether the Tcl_ObjType of a Tcl_Obj is
-	that of the "list" Tcl_ObjType.
-
-2005-11-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): Improved syntactic validation

-
-	* tests/namespace.test: fix comment
-
-2005-11-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:	More data in the "can't happen" Tcl_Panic to
-	aid debugging.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (CallCommandTraces): Save/restore the interp
-	result during traces to fix [Bug 1355342].
-
-2005-11-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* tests/namespace.test: fix for [Bug 1354540] and [Bug 1355942]. The
-	new tests 7.3-6 and the modified 51.13 fail due to the unrelated [Bug
-	1355342]
-
-	* tests/trace.test: added tests 20.13-16 for [Bug 1355342]
-
-2005-11-12  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): more partial fixes for
-	[Bug 1354540] - making sure that cached references to a command being
-	deleted cannot be made reusable by a delete trace.
-
-2005-11-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindCommand): Do not find commands in dead
-	namespaces on the path. Partial fix for [Bug 1354540].
-
-2005-11-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Revised TclParseNumber interface to enable
-	* generic/tclScan.c:	revision to the [scan] command implementation
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:	to permit tests scan-4.44,55 to pass again.
-	[Bug 1348067].
-
-2005-11-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): bump the cmd epoch early
-	to insure that cached references to this command are invalidated.
-	Partial fix for [Bug 1352734] - at least insures that namespace-51.13
-	does not cause a panic. The test is still marked as knownbug, pending
-	resolution of what is actually the correct return value ([Bug
-	1354540])
-
-2005-11-09  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclTimer.c: Changed [after] so that it behaves correctly
-	* tests/timer.test:   with negative arguments [Bug 1350293] and
-	arguments that overflow a 32-bit word. [Bug 1350291]

-
-	* tests/expr.test:      Portable tests expr-46.13-18 [Bug 1341368]
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c:	Corrected inconsistencies in the value returned
-	* tests/pkg.test:	by Tcl_PkgRequire(Ex) so that the returned
-	values will always agree with what is stored in the package database.
-	This way repeated calls to Tcl_PkgRequire(Ex) have the same results.
-	Thanks to Hemang Lavana. [Bug 1162286].
-
-2005-11-08  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarEx): Factor out heart of Tcl_TraceVar2
-	(TclTraceVariableObjCmd,TraceVarProc): Use the new internal API to
-	arrange for the clientData to be cleaned up at the same time as the
-	rest of the main trace record. This simplifies the code a bit at the
-	same time.
-
-2005-11-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-13.2-4): added tests to detect leak, see [Bug
-	1348775]. The recently added trace-8.9 test is now 13.4.
-
-2005-11-07  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): arrange for the stress testing code to

-	* generic/tclVar.c: fix for [Bug 1334947]. The functions TclPtrSetVar,
-	Tcl_ObjSetVar2 and Tcl_SetVar2Ex now always consume the newValuePtr
-	argument - i.e., they will free a 0-refCount object if they failed to
-	set the variable. Fixed all callers in the core.
-
-2005-11-04  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclGetDate.y: Added abbreviations for the Korean
-	* library/clock.tcl:    timezone. [Patch 1298737]
-	* generic/tclDate.c:    Regenerated.
-
-	* tools/findBadExternals.tcl: Added this script, which locates external
-	symbols that do not begin with 'Tcl' or 'tcl' and hence might be in
-	conflict with other link libraries. Thanks to George Peter Staplin for
-	the idea and the initial version of the script. [Bug 1263012]
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: Trimmed a bunch of fat out of the tommath/
-	directory in 'make dist'. [RFE 1333318]
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4: Added code to enable [load] on LynxOS. Thanks to
-	heidibr@users.sf.net for the patch. [Bug 1163896]. Removed the last

-
-	* tests/unixNotfy.test (1.1,2):	Update error message whitespace to

-
-	* tests/expr-old.test (expr-32.52): Use int(.) to restrict result of
-	left shift to the C long range.
-

-2005-10-31  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialSetOptionProc): Cleaned up option parsing
-	to produce more informative error messages and separate error and
-	non-error code paths better.
-	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-8-19): Updated.
-
-2005-10-29  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarProc): [Bug 1337229], partial fix. Ensure
-	that a second call with TCL_TRACE_DESTROYED does not lead to a second
-	call to Tcl_EventuallyFree(). It is still true that that second call
-	should not happen, so the bug is not completely fixed.
-	* tests/trace.test (test-18.3-4): added tests for [Bug 1337229] and
-	[Bug 1338280].
-
-2005-10-23  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>

-	1334461]. Thanks to Eric Melbardis for the patch.
-
-2005-10-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/binary.n: Clarify that virtually all code that uses the 'h'
-	format in [binary scan] should be using the 'H' format instead. It is
-	nearly always a bug to use the other!
-
-2005-10-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (TclLsetFlat):
-	* tests/lset.test (lset-10.3): fixed handling of unshared lists with
-	shared sublists, [Bug 1333036] reported by neuronstorm.
-
-2005-10-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c (PassReceivedError,PassReceivedErrorInterp):
-	Fix crash caused by passing -1 as the length to TclNewStringObj(). Only
-	Tcl_NewStringObj (the function call, not the macro) handles that sort
-	of thing correctly. This makes ioCmd.test pass again.
-
-2005-10-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2005-10-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: General cleanup, removing checks that are
-	unnecessary due to the general contracts of other functions in the
-	core, converting to using ANSI declarations, etc. Note that nearly the
-	whole file has changed, but it is often just cosmetic.
-
-2005-10-19  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_DICT_APPEND, INST_DICT_LAPPEND): fixed

-	reported by Aric Bills.
-
-2005-10-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Added optimization for I32L64 systems to avoid

-	dramatically in tclbench's matrix.bench.
-
-2005-10-15  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Restored some optimizations of the

-2005-10-14  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers): removed change dated
-	2005-10-04 (see below). Look into [Bug 1323992] for detailed
-	discussion.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Fixed bad definition of CRTEXPORT which should have
-	been CRTIMPORT rather. This broke compilation of generic/tclMain.c and
-	was probably introduced by mistake while applying the fix for [Bug
-	1256937] below.
-
-2005-10-14  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclIncrObj, TclExecuteByteCode): Tidied up a

-
-2005-10-14  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:     Fix for [Bug 1256937] - correctly decorate

-
-2005-10-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* tests/format.test: "Forward"-port of test updates relating to [Bug

-
-2005-10-12  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (GetNumberFromObj):	Restored some lost
-	optimizations for empty string values. We avoid cost of a call to
-	TclParseNumber just to tell us an empty string isn't a number.
-
-2005-10-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c (SetFsPathFromAny): TclGetString macro must not

-
-2005-10-10  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Corrections to the NO_WIDE_TYPE build. Also
-	added missing "break" to a switch that broke wide XOR operations.
-
-2005-10-10  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteScriptLimitCallback)
-	(SetScriptLimitCallback): Improve the interlocking between the script
-	limit callback record and the hash table of current such records, to
-	prevent crashes in callbacks that create callbacks.
-	(Tcl_LimitSetTime): Reset the correct flag. Problem reported by
-	Nicolas Castagne <castagne@imag.fr> on comp.lang.tcl
-
-2005-10-10  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

-	kennykb-numerics-branch contain identical code.
-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]	Merge updates from HEAD
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: More performance macros and special handling of

-
-2005-10-07  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Macro GetNumberFromObj() is version of
-	TclGetNumberFromObj() that saves a function call for common uses.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Made #undef NO_WIDE_TYPE the default on 32-bit
-	systems. Being able to use 64-bit values without leaping to mp_int
-	should help with performance.
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Bug fixes in the #undef NO_WIDE_TYPE
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	configuration.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Improved performance of comparison opcodes and
-	bitwise operations and removed yet more dead code.

-
-2005-10-05  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-

-	* generic/tclEnv.c (TclSetEnv, TclUnsetEnv): add USE_PUTENV_FOR_UNSET
-	to existing USE_PUTENV define to account for various systems that have
-	putenv(), but can't unset env vars with it. Note difference between
-	Windows and Linux for actually unsetting the env var (use of '=').
-	Correct the resizing of the environ array. We assume that we are in
-	full ownership, but that's not correct.[Bug 979640]

-2005-10-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Updated TclIncrObj() to more efficiently add

-	sections for performance.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Updated more callers to make use of
-	TclGetNumberFromObj. Removed some dead code.

-	1311285]
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): add code that recognizes {} in

-
-2005-10-04  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers): now deletes any
-	outstanding timer for the channel. Also, prevents events still in the
-	event queue from triggering on the current channel.
-
-	* generic/tclTimer.c (Tcl_DeleteTimerHandler): bail out early if passed

-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Removed a copy-and-paste accident
-	that caused a (mostly harmless) double finalize of the load and
-	filesystem subsystems.
-	* tests/clock.test: Eliminated the bad test clock-43.1, and split
-	clock-50.1 into two tests, with a more permissive check on the error

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_Expr{Long,Double}{,Obj}): Updated to
-	* generic/tclTest.c:                                deal with
-	* tests/expr-old.test:                              bignums (well,
-	* tests/expr.test:                                  mostly).
-	Added a missing "errno=0;" in ExprUnaryFunc so that spurious error
-	returns aren't detected.
-	Added test cases for Tcl_Expr* and Tcl_Expr*Obj because there was very
-	poor test coverage in those areas.
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c: Reworked parsing of numbers to call
-	TclParseNumber rather than trying to do things locally.
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c: Corrected a comment. Changed so that *endPtrPtr
-	does not include any trailing whitespace.

-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Made bit shifting opcodes and INST_MOD
-	bignum-aware.
-
-	* tests/scan.test:	Making << bignum-aware means that repeated
-	* tests/string.test:	left shifting cannot turn a positive into a
-	negative. Revised [int_range] and [largest_int] utility commands in the
-	test suite that relied on that happening. Without revision they became
-	infinite loops.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Made binary bitwise opcodes bignum-aware.

-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Extended Bignum auto-narrowing to auto-narrow
-	to tclWideIntType when appropriate; this helps keep things working as
-	the bytecode execution code is migrated to supporting bignums.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Major overhaul of IllegalExprOperandType.
-	Changed several TclNewFooObj() calls to more logically appropriate
-	ones. Added several TODO comments marking opportunies for future work.

-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Simplify doCondJump. Use eePtr->constants as

-	* generic/tclClock.c (MktimeObjCmd):
-	* library/clock.tcl (GetSystemTimeZone, LoadZoneinfoFile)
-	(ReadZoneinfoFile):
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-50.1):
-	Added functionality to read /etc/localtime if it exists, so that Tcl's
-	time can track system time on Linux even if TZ is not set. Changed
-	::tcl::clock::Mktime to check for failure, and added a test case that
-	mimics failure but is really success.
-
-2005-08-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch]
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Rewrite of INST_LAND/INST_LOR to take advantage
-	of loss of "pure double" issues. Merged INST_UPLUS with
-	INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC and updated to use improved rules for impure
-	"double"s as well.
-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:	Restored conditional generation of
-	tclWideIntType values by TclParseNumber so that Tcl's not completely
-	broken while bignum calculation support is incomplete. The NO_WIDE_TYPE
-	macro can be used to disable this.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (ExprAbsFunc): First pass making [expr abs(.)]
-	bignum-aware.
-
-2005-08-11  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:         Eliminated the USE_THREAD_STORAGE option
-	* generic/tclInt.h:           (which is on in every build generated by
-	* generic/tclThread.c:        by the standard configurator).
-	* generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Eliminated the code for thread specific
-	* unix/configure:             data without USE_THREAD_STORAGE and
-	* unix/tcl.m4:                radically refactored the code for

-	* win/Makefile.in:	to routines from libtommath used by Tcl.
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-
-	* generic/tommath.h:	make gentommath_h
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Substantial rewrite to make all number parsing
-	flow through TclParseNumber(). Also established the NO_WIDE_TYPE and
-	BIGNUM_AUTO_NARROW #ifdef's to help track the assumptions of different
-	portions of the code.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Added NO_WIDE_TYPE #ifdefs
-
-2005-08-10  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Pushed Tcl_FinalizeLoad and
-	Tcl_ResetFilesystem down after Tcl_FinalizeThreadAlloc because we can't
-	unload DLL's until after their TSD keys are finalized. (Note that we'll
-	still see aborts if an unloaded DLL has TSD - that still needs to be
-	fixed.
-
-	* tests/compExpr-old.test (compExpr-3.8): Made tests conditional on
-	* tests/expr.test (expr-3.8):             'unix' because they get
-	stack overflows on Win32 threaded builds,
-
-2005-08-09  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch] Updated from HEAD
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Rewrote Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj() and supporting

-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Simplified routines that manage the typeTable.

-
-2005-07-27  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:	Converted the $::tcl_precision value to be kept
-	per-thread to prevent different threads from stomping on each others'
-	formatting prescriptions.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** Multi-threaded programs that set the
-	value of ::tcl_precision will now have to set it in each thread.
-
-	* tests/expr.test:	Consolidated equivalent constraints into
-	* tests/fileName.test:	single definitions and (more precise) names:

-	* tests/listObj.test:	empty => emptyTest; winOnly => win
-	* tests/obj.test:	intsAre64bit => longIs64bit
-	Also updated some "nonPortable" tests to use constraints that mark
-	precisely what about them isn't portable, so the tests can run where
-	they work.
-
-	* library/init.tcl ([unknown]): Corrected return code handling in the
-	portions of [unknown] that expand incomplete commands during
-	interactive operations. [Bug 1214462].

-
-	* unix/configure: Regen.

-
-	* library/ldAout.tcl (***REMOVED***):	Removed support for ancient

-	Handle correctly the case where localtime() returns NULL to report a

-	more efficient since it no longer does a modulus or negation and only
-	checks for a remainder when the quotient will be a negative number.

-2005-06-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/auto.tcl:	Make file safe to re-[source] without
-	destroying registered auto_mkindex_parser hooks.
-
-2005-06-23  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWinChan.c: More rewriting of __asm__ blocks that implement
-	* win/tclWinFCmd.c: SEH in GCC, because mingw's gcc 3.4.2 is not as
-	forgiving of violations committed by the old code and caused panics.
-	[Bug 1225957]
-
-2005-06-23  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: fixed useversion glob pattern to accept
-	multi-digit patchlevels.
-
-2005-06-22  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Potential buffer overflow. [Bug 1225571] Thanks to
-	Pat Thoyts for discovery and fix.
-
-2005-06-22  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:			    Changed the finalization
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize):	    logic to defer the
-	* generic/tclIO.c (TclFinalizeIOSubsystem): shutdown of the pipe
-	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclFinalizePipes):    management until after all
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclFinalizePipes):	    channels have been closed,
-	in order to avoid a situation where the Windows PipeCloseProc2 would
-	re-establish the exit handler after exit handlers had already run,
-	corrupting the heap. [Bug 1225727] Also corrected a potential read of
-	uninitialized memory in PipeClose2Proc [Bug 1225044]
-
-2005-06-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Followup to change made on 2005-06-18 by Daniel
-	Steffen. There are compilers (*) who error out on the redefinition of
-	WORDS_BIGENDIAN. We have to undef the previous definition (on the
-	command line) first to make this acceptable. (*): AIX native.
-
-2005-06-21  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: Changed [file split] and [file join] to treat
-	Windows drive letters similarly to ~ syntax and make sure that they
-	appear with "./" in front when they are in intermediate components of
-	the path. [Bug 1194458]
-	* tests/fileName.test: Added test for the above bug.
-
-2005-06-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Added missing walk of the list of active
-	* generic/tclTrace.c:	traces to cleanup references to traces being
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	deleted. [Bug 1201035] Made the walk of the
-	* tests/trace.test (trace-34.*): active trace list aware of the
-	direction of trace scanning, so the proper correction can be made.
-	[Bug 1224585]
-
-2005-06-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS): Only enable the 'compile' special
-	debugging feature when requested in configure.in; removes irrelevant
-	junk from the configure files of extensions that use Tcl's tcl.m4.
-
-2005-06-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (INST_PUSH_RETURN_OPTIONS): New opcode to allow
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileCatchCmd):	   compilation of
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:				   TIP#90 catch [Bug
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode):	   1219112]
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Ensure we spill to the
-	command form in all cases where it generates an error.
-
-2005-06-20  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): Generate an error if a mode
-	argument like -exact is passed more than once to the switch command.
-	The previous implementation silently accepted invalid switch
-	invocations like [switch -exact -glob $str ...].
-	* tests/for.test: Check some error cases when invoking continue and
-	break inside a for loop next script.
-	* tests/switch.test: Add checks for shortened version of a mode
-	argument like -exact. Add test for more than one mode argument. Add
-	test for odd case of passing a variable as a body script.
-
-2005-06-18  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: ensure WORDS_BIGENDIAN is defined correctly with
-	fat compiles on Darwin (i.e. ppc and i386 at the same time), the
-	configure AC_C_BIGENDIAN check is not sufficient in this case because a
-	single run of the compiler builds for two architectures with different
-	endianness.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): add -headerpad_max_install_names to LDFLAGS to
-	ensure we can always relocate binaries with install_name_tool.
-
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-
-2005-06-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-2005-06-17  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclTimer.c (AfterDelay): Split out the code to manage
-	synchronous-delay [after] commands.
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-34.10): Time limits and synch-delay [after]
-	did not mix well... [Bug 1221395]
-
-2005-06-14  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken): Only delete a
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-49.2): command from the hashtable on
-	reentrant processing if it has not been already deleted; at least three
-	deletes of the same command are possible. [Bug 1220058]
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TraceCommandProc): Remove bogus error message
-	creation when traces trigger in situations where the command has
-	already been deleted.
-
-2005-06-13  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>

-	for greater clarity.
-
-2005-06-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/chan.n: Fold in the descriptive parts of the documentation for
-	all the commands that [chan] builds on top of.
-
-2005-06-09  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFCmd.c: fix to race condition in file mkdir [Bug 1217375]

-	mention of distinctly-relevant [namespace path] subcommand.
-
-2005-06-07  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		Reduced the Tcl_ObjTypes "index",
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c:	"ensembleCmd", "localVarName", and
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:		"levelReference" to file static scope.
-	* generic/tclProc.c:

-
-2005-06-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ChannelTruncateProc): Stop proliferation of

-
-2005-06-06  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Corrected another buglet in the assembly code for
-	stack probing on Win32/gcc. [Bug 1213678]
-	* generic/tclObj,c: Added missing 'static' on definition of
-	UpdateStringOfBignum, and removed a 'switch' on a 'long long' operand
-	(which HP-UX native 'cc' seems unable to handle). [Bug 1215775]
-
-2005-06-04  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	*** 8.5a3 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (html): add BUILD_HTML_FLAGS optional var
-	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: add a --useversion to prevent confusion
-	when multiple Tcl source dirs exist.
-
-2005-06-01  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	For compatibility with earlier Tcl releases,
-	* generic/tclResult.c:	when a command procedure simply does a
-	* generic/tclTest.c:	"return TCL_RETURN;" we must interpret that
-	* tests/result.test:	the same as
-	"return Tcl_SetReturnOptions(interp, Tcl_NewObj());"  [Bug 1209759].
-
-2005-06-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Allow compilation of
-	-nocase -glob [switch]es (only one we know how to compile).
-
-	TIP#241 IMPLEMENTATION from Joe Mistachkin
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd, Tcl_LsortObjCmd):
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): Implementation of -nocase
-	option for [lsearch], [lsort] and [switch] commands.
-	* win/tclWinPort.h: Win uses nonstandard function names...
-	* tests/cmdIL.test, tests/lsearch.test, tests/switch.test: Tests
-	* doc/lsearch.n, doc/lsort.n, doc/switch.n: Docs
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLindexCmd): Compile the most common
-	case of [lindex] more efficiently.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_FinalizeNotifier): Pass the correct number
-	of arguments to Tcl_JoinThread.
-
-2005-05-31  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/configure.in, unix/tcl.m4: Standardize generation of help
-	messages to always use AC_HELP_STRING and always (except for --with-tcl
-	and --with-tk, where the default is complex) say what the default is.
-
-2005-05-31  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: the notifier thread is now created as joinable
-	thread and it is properly joined in Tcl_FinalizeNotifier. This is an
-	attempt to fix the [Bug 1082283].
-
-2005-05-30  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Fixed [Bug 1204064]
-
-2005-05-30  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	TIP #229 IMPLEMENTATION
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindCommand, TclResetShadowedCmdRefs)
-	(NamespacePathCmd, SetNsPath, UnlinkNsPath, TclInvalidateNsPath):
-	Implementation of the [namespace path] command and the command name

-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-
-2005-05-25  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-2005-05-25  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	TIP#182 IMPLEMENTATION	[Patch 1165062]
-
-	* doc/mathfunc.n:	New built-in math function bool().

-	* tests/expr.test:
-	* tests/info.test:

-2005-05-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* library/init.tcl:	Updated [unknown] to be sure the [return]
-	* tests/init.test:	options from an auto-loaded command are seen
-	correctly by the caller.
-
-2005-05-24  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/env.test: added DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH to the list of env vars
-	that need to be handled specially.
-
-	* macosx/Makefile:
-	* macosx/README:
-	* macosx/Tcl-Info.plist.in (new file):
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* unix/configure.in:
-	* unix/tcl.m4:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: moved all Darwin framework build support from
-	macosx/Makefile into the standard unix configure/make buildsystem, the
-	macosx/Makefile is no longer required to build Tcl.framework (but its
-	functionality is still available for backwards compatibility).
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclLoadFile):
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* unix/tcl.m4:
-	* unix/tclLoadDyld.c: added support for [load]ing .bundle binaries in
-	addition to .dylib's: .bundle's can be [unload]ed (unlike .dylib's),
-	and can be [load]ed from memory, e.g. directly from VFS without needing
-	to be written out to a temporary location first. [Bug 1202209]
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TimeObjCmd): change [time] called with a
-	count > 1 to return a string with a float value instead of a rounded
-	off integer. [Bug 1202178]
-
-	* doc/expr.n:
-	* doc/string.n: fixed roff syntax complaints from 'make html'.
-
-2005-05-20  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Corrected parser to recognize all
-	boolean literals accepted by Tcl_GetBoolean, including prefixes like
-	"y" and "f", and to allow "eq" and "ne" as function names in the proper
-	context. [Bug 1201589].
-
-2005-05-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal): Rewrite for greater
-	clarity; although 'goto' is Bad, the contortions you have to go through
-	to avoid it can be worse...
-
-2005-05-19  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): fixed crashing CFRelease
-	of runLoopSource in Tcl_InitNotifier (reported by Zoran):
-	CFRunLoopAddSource doesn't CFRetain, so can only CFRelease the
-	runLoopSource in Tcl_FinalizeNotifier.
-
-2005-05-18  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_ExprBoolean):	Rewrite as wrapper around
-	Tcl_ExprBooleanObj.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c ([string is boolean/true/false]): Rewrite dropping
-	string-based Tcl_GetBoolean call, so that internal reps are kept for
-	subsequent quick boolean operations.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Dropped most special handling of the "boolean"
-	Tcl_ObjType, since that type should now be rarely encountered.
-
-	* doc/BoolObj.3:	Rewrite of documentation dropping many details
-	about the internals of Tcl_Objs. Shorter documentation focuses on the
-	function and use of the routines.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Revision to the "boolean" Tcl_ObjType, so that
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	only string values like "yes" and "false" are
-	* tests/obj.test:	kept as the "boolean" Tcl_ObjType. The string
-	values "0" and "1" are kept as "int" Tcl_ObjType, which also produce
-	quick calls to Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj(). Since this internal change
-	means a Tcl_ConvertToType to a "boolean" Tcl_ObjType might not produce
-	a Tcl_Obj of type "boolean", the registration of the "boolean" type is
-	also removed.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	For callers of Tcl_GetObjType on the type name "boolean".
-
-2005-05-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclInitObjSubsystem):	Removed the
-	* tests/listObj.test:	registration of the Tcl_ObjType's "list",
-	* tests/obj.test:	"procbody", "index", "ensembleCommand",
-	"localVarName", and "levelReference". The only reason to register a
-	Tcl_ObjType is to have it returned by Tcl_GetObjType, and the only
-	reason for that is to retrieve a (Tcl_ObjType *) to pass to
-	Tcl_ConvertToType(). None of the types above can support a
-	Tcl_ConvertToType() call; they panic. Better not to offer something
-	than to lead users into a panic.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	For callers of Tcl_GetObjType on the type names listed above.
-
-2005-05-15  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: conditioned definition of EXCEPTION_REGISTRATION
-	structures on HAVE_NO_SEH, to fix a bug in buildability on MSVC.
-
-2005-05-14  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: fixed link error due to direct access by tclTest.c
-	to the MODULE_SCOPE tclPlatform global: renamed existing
-	TclWinGetPlatform() accessor to TclGetPlatform() and moved it to
-	generic code so that it can be used by on all platforms where
-	MODULE_SCOPE is enforced.
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): made use of CoreFoundation API configurable and
-	added test of CoreFoundation availablility to allow building on ppc64,
-	replaced HAVE_CFBUNDLE by HAVE_COREFOUNDATION; test for availability of
-	Tiger or later OSSpinLockLock API.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
-	* unix/Makefile.in:
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (new file): when CoreFoundation is
-	available, use new CFRunLoop based notifier: allows easy integration
-	with other event loops on Mac OS X, in particular the TkAqua Carbon
-	event loop is now integrated via a standard tcl event source (instead
-	of TkAqua upon loading having to finalize the exsting notifier and
-	replace it with its custom version). [Patch 1202052]
-
-	* tests/unixNotfy.test: don't run unthreaded tests on Darwin since
-	notifier may be using threads even in unthreaded core.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): test for thread-unsafe realpath during
-	configure, as Darwin 7 and later realpath is threadsafe.
-
-	* macosx/Makefile: enable configure caching.
-
-	* unix/configure.in: wrap tclConfig.h header in #ifndef _TCLCONFIG so
-	that it can be included more than once without warnings from gcc4.0 (as
-	happens e.g. when including both tclInt.h and tclPort.h)
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:
-	* unix/tclLoadDyld.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: fixed gcc 4.0 warnings.
-
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59

-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: make genstubs
-
-2005-05-13  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Further rework of the SEH logic. All
-	EXCEPTION_REGISTRATION records are now in the activation record rather
-	than pushed on the stack.
-
-2005-05-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Dropped the TCL_NO_MATH configuration. It's
-	* generic/tclBinary.c:	believed this has not been working in a long
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: time. Tcl needs math.h. [RFE 1200680]

-
-	[kennykb-numerics-branch] Resynchronized with the HEAD; at this

-
-2005-05-11  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c (TclStrToD, RefineResult, ParseNaN): Changed the
-	code to cast 'char' to UCHAR explicitly when using ctype macros, to
-	silence complaints from the Solaris compiler.
-
-2005-05-10  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: add lint attr to enum to satisfy strictly
-	compliant compilers that don't like trailing ,s.
-
-	* tests/string.test: string-10.[21-30]
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): add extra checks to prevent
-	possible UMR in unichar cmp function for string map.
-
-2005-05-10  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (FormatNumber): Fixed a bug where NaN's resulted
-	in reads of uninitialized memory when using 'd', 'q', or 'Q' format.
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c (ParseNaN, TclFormatNaN): Added code to handle
-	the peculiarities of HP's PA_RISC, which uses a different 'quiet' bit
-	in NaN from everyone else.
-	* libtommath/tommath_superclass.h: Corrected C++-style comment.
-

-	* generic/tclStrToD.c: Made code more portable by finding a workaround
-	for MSVC's 'volatile' issue that does not require conditional
-	compilation.
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclWinCPUID): Removed structured event handling
-	from the GCC code since (a) bad code is generated by the instruction

-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj): Restored silent

-	Also changed to return TCL_ERROR on a pure NaN.
-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c (RefineResult): Added a test for the initial
-	approximation being HUGE_VAL; this test avoids EDOM being returned from
-	ldexp on some platforms on input values exceeding the floating point

-
-	* tests/expr.test (expr-29.*, expr-30.*): Added further tests of

-
-	* win/tclWinNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent):
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): don't call ScaleTimeProc for
-	zero wait times (as specified in TIP 233).
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in: added @PLAT_SRCS@ to SRCS and split out NOTIFY_SRCS
-	from UNIX_SRCS for parity with UNIX_OBJS & NOTIFY_OBJS.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): added configure checks for recently added
-	linker flags -single_module and -search_paths_first to allow building
-	with older tools (and on Mac OS X 10.1), use -single_module in SHLIB_LD
-	and not just T{CL,K}_SHLIB_LD_EXTRAS, added unexporting from Tk of
-	symbols from libtclstub to avoid duplicate symbol warnings, added
-	PLAT_SRCS definition for Mac OS X, defined MODULE_SCOPE to

-
-	The 2005-04-21 changes to Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj were done to bring it
-	into agreement with its docs. Further investigation reveals it was the
-	docs that were incorrect.
-
-	* doc/BoolObj.3:	Corrections to the documentation of
-	Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj to bring it into agreement with what this public
-	interface has always done, including noting the difference in function
-	between Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj and Tcl_GetBoolean.
-
-	* generic/tclGet.c:	Revised Tcl_GetBoolean to no longer be a
-	wrapper around Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj (different function!).
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Removed TclGetTruthValueFromObj routine that
-	was added yesterday. Revisions so that only Tcl_GetBoolean-approved
-	values get the "boolean" Tcl_ObjType. This retains the fix for [Bug
-	1187123].
-	* tests/string.test:	Test string-23.0 for Bug 1187123.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Revert most recent change.

-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:

-2005-04-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/GetInt.3:	Convert argument "string" to "str" to agree with code.
-	Also clarified a few details on int and double formats.
-	* generic/tclGet.c:	Radical code simplification. Converted
-	Tcl_GetFoo() routines into wrappers around Tcl_GetFooFromObj(). Reduces
-	code duplication, and the resulting potential for inconsistency.
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Several changes:
-
-	- Re-ordered error detection code so all values with trailing garbage
-	  receive a "not an integer" message instead of an "integer too large"
-	  message.
-	- Removed inactive code meant to deal with strtoul* routines that fail
-	  to parse leading signs. All of them do, and if any are detected that
-	  do not, the correct fix is replacement with compat/strtoul*.c, not a
-	  lot of special care by the callers.
-	- Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj now avoids shimmering away a "wideInt" intrep.
-	- Fixed Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj to agree with its documentation and with
-	  Tcl_GetBoolean, accepting only "0" and "1" and not other numeric
-	  strings. [Bug 1187123]
-	- Added new private routine TclGetTruthValueFromObj to perform the more
-	  permissive conversion of numeric values to boolean that is needed by
-	  the [expr] machinery.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclGetTruthValueFromObj):	New routine.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Updated callers to call new routine.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Updated callers to call new routine.
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	Updated callers to call new routine.
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c:	Updated callers to call new routine.
-	* tests/obj.test:	Corrected bad tests that actually expected
-	values like "47" and "0xAC" to be accepted as booleans.
-
-	* generic/tclLiteral.c: Disabled the code that forces some literals
-	into the "int" Tcl_ObjType during registration. We can re-enable it if
-	this change causes trouble, but it seems more sensible to let Tcl's
-	"on-demand" shimmering rule, and not try to pre-guess things.

-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: force clenaup of the interp result in

-
-	Set of changes correcting huge memory waste (not a leak) when a thread

-	cleanup after ourselves when Tcl library is being unloaded with the
-	Tcl_Finalize() call.
-
-	This fixes the [Bug 1178445]
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: added prototypes for TclpFreeAllocCache() and
-	TclFreeAllocCache()
-
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: modified TclFinalizeThreadAlloc() to
-	explicitly call TclpFreeAllocCache with the NULL-ptr as argument
-	signalling cleanup of private tsd key used only by the threading
-	allocator.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: fixed TclpFreeAllocCache() to recognize when
-	being called with NULL argument. This is a signal for it to clean up
-	the tsd key associated with the threading allocator.
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: renamed TclWinFreeAllocCache to TclpFreeAllocCache
-	and fixed to recognize when being called with NULL argument. This is a

-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize): Lowest size limit
-	* tests/io.test:	changed from ten bytes to one byte. Need for
-	* tests/iogt.test:	this change was proven by Ross Cartlidge
-	<rossc@cisco.com> where [read stdin 1] was grabbing 10 bytes followed
-	by starting a child process that was intended to continue reading from

-	by the buffersize over reading for the native read() caused by [read].
-
-2005-04-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpGetEncodingNameFromEnvironment): Reversed
-	order of verifying candidate [encoding system] value, checking against
-	a table in memory first before calling Tcl_GetEncoding and potentially
-	scanning through the filesystem. Also ordered the table so that a
-	binary search could be used within it. Improves startup time a bit more
-	on some systems.

-
-	* doc/fcopy.n: Improved documentation on copying binary files, added an

-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Corrected bad syntax of Tcl_Panic() call.
-

-	of bad TclInitProcessGlobalValueProc behavior; an immediate panic
-	rather than a mysterious crash later.
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c:	Several changes to the way the
-	encodingFileMap cache is maintained. Previously, it was attempted to
-	keep the file map filled and up to date with changes in the encoding
-	search path. This contributed to slow startup times since it required
-	an expensive "glob" operation to fill the cache. Now the validity of
-	items in the cache are checked at the time they are used, so the cache
-	is permitted to fall out of sync with the encoding search path. Only
-	[encoding names] and Tcl_GetEncodingNames() now pay the full expense.

-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: Fixed a problem with reflected channels. 'chan
-	postevent' is defined to work only from within the interpreter
-	containing the handler command. Sensible, we want only handler
-	commands to use it. It identifies the channel by handle. The channel
-	moves to a different interpreter or thread. The interpreter containing
-	the handler command doesn't know the channel any longer. 'chan
-	postevent' fails, not finding the channel any longer. Uhm.
-
-	Fixed by creating a second per-interpreter channel table, just for
-	reflected channels, where each interpreter remembers for which
-	reflected channels it has the handler command. This info does not move
-	with the channel itself. The table is updated by 'chan create', and
-	used by 'chan postevent'.

-
-2007-11-23  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): handle the right data for
-	* tests/var.test (var-14.2):	      [array names $var -glob $ptn]
-
-2007-11-23  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (String*Cmd, TclInitStringCmd): Rebuilt [string]
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileString*Cmd): as an ensemble.
-
-2007-11-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (Dict*Cmd,TclInitDictCmd): Rebuilt the [dict]
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDict*Cmd): command as an ensemble.
-
-2007-11-22  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Rewrote the [string] and
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (Tcl_DictObjCmd): [dict] implementations to be
-	ready for conversion to ensembles.
-
-	* tests/string.test (string-12.22): Flag shimmering bug found in
-	[string range].
-
-2007-11-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Rewrote the ensemble
-	compiler to remove many of the limitations. Can now compile scripts
-	that use unique prefixes of subcommands, and which have mappings of a
-	command to multiple words (provided the first is a compilable command
-	of course).
-
-2007-11-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (TclMakeEnsemble): Factor out the code to set up
-	a core ensemble from a table of information about subcommands, ready
-	for reuse within the core.
-
-	* generic/various: Start to return more useful Error codes, currently
-	mainly on assorted lookup failures.
-
-2007-11-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: Changed the underlying implementation of the
-	hash table used in dictionaries to additionally keep all entries in
-	the hash table in a linked list, which is only ever added to at the
-	end. This makes iteration over all entries in the dictionary in
-	key insertion order a trivial operation, and so cleans up a great deal
-	of complexity relating to dictionary representation and stability of
-	iteration order.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	For any code that depended on the (strange) old iteration order.
-
-	* generic/tclConfig.c (QueryConfigObjCmd): Correct usage of
-	Tcl_WrongNumArgs.

-
-2007-11-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (TclInitInfoCmd): Rename the implementation

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileInfoExistsCmd): Compiler for the

-
-	* generic/regc_nfa.c:	Fixed infinite loop in the regexp compiler.
-	[Bug 1810038]
-
-	* generic/regc_nfa.c:	Corrected looping logic in fixempties() to

-
-2007-11-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceEnsembleCmd): Must pass a non-NULL

-
-	* doc/re_syntax.n: Try to make this easier to read. It's still a very
-	difficult manual page!
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Allow people to turn off the -rpath
-	option to their linker if they so desire. This is a configuration only
-	recommended for (some) vendors. Relates to [Patch 1231022].
-
-2007-11-15  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Prefer UINT_PTR to DWORD_PTR when casting

-
-2007-11-15  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-2007-11-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): Ensure that we get our

-	to compile a command directly.
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_SetEnsembleSubcommandList)
-	(Tcl_SetEnsembleMappingDict):		Special code to make sure that
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (TclInitInfoCmd):	[info exists] is compiled
-	right while not allowing changes to the ensemble to cause havok.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileInfoCmd): Simple compiler for the

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode:INST_EXIST_*): New
-	instructions to allow the testing of whether a variable exists.
-
-2007-11-14  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/chanio.test: New file. This is essentially a duplicate of
-	'io.test', with all channel commands converted to their 'chan xxx'
-	notation.
-	* tests/io.test: Fixed typo in test description.
-
-2007-11-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/regc*.c: Eliminate multi-char collating element code
-	completely. Simplifies the code quite a bit. If people still want the
-	full code, it will remain on the 8.4 branch. [Bug 1831425]
-
-2007-11-13  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): clean up comments, only
-	free dstring on OK from TclReToGlob.
-	(TclCompileSwitchCmd): simplify TclReToGlob usage.
-
-2007-11-14  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/regc*.c: #ifdef/comment out the code that deals with
-	multi-character collating elements, which have never been supported.
-	Cuts the memory consumption of the RE compiler. [Bug 1831425]
-
-2007-11-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd, TclCompileRegexpCmd):
-	Extend [switch] compiler to handle regular expressions as long as
-	things are not too complex. Fix [regexp] compiler so that non-trivial
-	literal regexps get fed to INST_REGEXP.
-
-	* doc/mathop.n: Clarify definitions of some operations.
-
-2007-11-13  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: the TCL_NO_STACK_CHECK was being incorrectly
-	undefined here; this should be set (or not) in the compile options, it
-	is used elsewhere and needs to be consistent.
-
-2007-11-13  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4:		Added autoconf goo to detect and make use of
-	* unix/configure.in:	getaddrinfo and friends.
-	* unix/configure:	(regenerated)
-
-2007-11-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixCompat.c (TclpGetHostByName): The six-argument form of
-	getaddressbyname_r() uses the fifth argument to indicate whether the
-	lookup succeeded or not on at least one platform. [Bug 1618235]
-
-2007-11-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/regcomp.c:	Convert optst() from expensive no-op to a
-	cheap no-op.
-
-2007-11-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (CreateSocketAddress): Rewrote to use the
-	thread-safe version of gethostbyname() by forward-porting the code
-	used in 8.4, and added rudimentary support for getaddrinfo() (not
-	enabled by default, as no autoconf-ery written). Part of fix for [Bug
-	1618235].
-
-2007-11-12  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tclGet.c (Tcl_Get, Tcl_GetInt): revert use of TclGet* macros
-	due to compiler warning. These cases won't save time either.
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclReToGlob): add more comments, set interp
-	result if specified on error.
-
-2007-11-12  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:		New macro TclResetResult, new iPtr
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:		flag bit INTERP_RESULT_UNCLEAN:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		shortcut for Tcl_ResetResult for the
-	* generic/tclProc.c:		"normal" case: TCL_OK, no return
-	* generic/tclResult.c:		options, no errorCode nor errorInfo,
-	* generic/tclStubLib.c:		return at normal level. [Patch
-	* generic/tclUtil.c:		1830184]
-
-	THIS PATCH WAS REVERTED: initial (mis)measurements overstated the
-	perfomance wins, which turn out to be tiny. Not worth the
-	complication.

-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c, generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c, generic/tclInt.decls, generic/tclIntDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclRegexp.c, generic/tclRegexp.h: Add INST_REGEXP and fully
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c, generic/tclUtil.c: compiled [regexp] for the

-
-2007-11-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (ResetObjResult): clarify the logic.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:		Increased usage of macros to detect
-	* generic/tclBinary.c:		and take advantage of objTypes. Added
-	* generic/tclClock.c:		macros TclGet(Int|Long)FromObj,
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:		TclGetIntForIndexM & TclListObjLength,
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:		modified TclListObjGetElements.

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* tests/interp.test:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Restore simpler behaviour for stack checking, not
-	adaptive to stack size changes after a thread is launched. Consensus
-	is that "nobody does that", and so it is not worth the cost. Improved
-	failure comments (mistachkin).
-
-2007-11-10  Kevin Kenny	 <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Rewrote the Windows stack checking algorithm to
-	use information from VirtualQuery to determine the bound of the stack.
-	This change fixes a bug where the guard page of the stack was never
-	restored after an overflow. It also eliminates a nasty piece of
-	assembly code for structured exception handling on mingw. It
-	introduces an assumption that the stack is a single memory arena
-	returned from VirtualAlloc, but the code in MSVCRT makes the same
-	assumption, so it should be fairly safe.

-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Modify the stack checking algorithm to recheck in
-	case of failure. The working assumptions are now that (a) a thread's
-	stack is never moved, and (b) a thread's stack can grow but not
-	shrink. Port to windows - could be more efficient, but is already
-	cheaper than it was.

-	* generic/tclBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclUnixInit.c:

-	[Patch 1829248]
-
-2007-11-09  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-	(DoWriteChars): Special case for 1-byte channel write.
-
-2007-11-06  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Version of the embedded iso8859-1 encoding
-	handler that is faster (functions to do the encoding know exactly what
-	they're doing instead of pulling it from a table, though the table
-	itself has to be retained for use by shift encodings that depend on
-	iso8859-1). [Patch 1826906], committing for dkf.
-
-2007-11-05  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclConfig.c (Tcl_RegisterConfig): Modified to not extend the
-	config database if the encoding provided by the user is not found
-	(venc == NULL). Scripts expecting the data will error out, however we
-	neither crash nor provide bogus information. See [Bug 983509] for more
-	discussion.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtyGetOptionProc): Accepted [Patch 1823576]
-	provided by Stuart Cassof <stwo@users.sourceforge.net>. The patch adds
-	the necessary utf/external conversions to the handling of the
-	arguments of option -xchar which will allow the use of \0 and similar
-	characters.
-
-2007-11-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclTest.c (TestSetCmd2):

-
-2007-10-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (TclInitEncodingSubsystem): Hard code the
-	iso8859-1 encoding, as it's needed for more than just text (especially
-	binary encodings...) Note that other encodings rely on the encoding
-	being a table encoding (!) so we can't use more efficient encoding

-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Removed the "nsName" Tcl_ObjType from the

-	* generic/tclObj.c:	intrep of that Tcl_ObjType. Revised the
-	* tests/obj.test:	TclGetNamespaceFromObj() routine to return
-	TCL_ERROR and write a consistent error message when a namespace is not

-	* tests/upvar.test:
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	Use the new INST_REVERSE instruction
-	* tests/mathop.test:	to correct the compiled versions of math
-	operator commands. [Bug 1724437]
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: New bytecode instruction INST_REVERSE to
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: reverse the order of N items at the top of
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: stack.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompilePowOpCmd):	Make a separate

-
-2007-09-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictUpdateCmd, DictWithCmd): Plug a hole that
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC,INST_DICT_UPDATE_END): allowed a careful
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-21.16,21.17,22.11): attacker to craft a dict
-	containing a recursive link to itself, violating one of Tcl's
-	fundamental datatype assumptions and causing a stack crash when the
-	dict was converted to a string. [Bug 1786481]
-
-2007-09-07  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c ([::tcl::Bgerror]):	Corrections to Tcl's
-	* tests/event.test:	default [interp bgerror] handler so that when
-	it falls back to a hidden [bgerror] in a safe interp, it gets the
-	right error context data. [Bug 1790274]
-
-2007-09-07  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (TclInitCompiledLocals): the refCount of resolved
-	variables was being managed without checking if they were Var or
-	VarInHash: itcl [Bug 1790184]
-
-2007-09-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_GetReturnOptions):	Take care that a
-	* tests/init.test:	non-TCL_ERROR code doesn't cause existing
-	-errorinfo, -errorcode, and -errorline entries to be omitted.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:	With -errorInfo no longer lost, generate more
-	complete ::errorInfo when calling [bgerror] after a non-TCL_ERROR
-	background exception.
-
-2007-09-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Init):	Removed constraint on ability
-	to define a custom [tclInit] before calling Tcl_Init(). Until now the
-	custom command had to be a proc. Now it can be any command.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: New internal routine TclBackgroundException()
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:	that for the first time permits non-TCL_ERROR
-	exceptions to trigger [interp bgerror] handling. Closes a gap in TIP
-	221. When falling back to [bgerror] (which is designed only to handle
-	TCL_ERROR), convert exceptions into errors complaining about the
-	exception.
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Convert Tcl_BackgroundError() callers to call
-	* generic/tclIO.c:	TclBackgroundException().
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c:
-	* generic/tclTimer.c:
-

-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcode/project.pbxproj: discontinue unmaintained support
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcode/default.pbxuser: for Xcode 1.5; replace by Xcode2
-	project for use on Tiger (with Tcl.xcodeproj to be used on Leopard).
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: updates for Xcode 2.5 and 3.0.

-	* unix/Makefile.in:	1264623]
-
-2007-09-04  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	It's unreliable to count on the release
-	manager to remember to `make genstubs` before `make dist`. Let the
-	Makefile remember the dependency for us.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Corrections to `make dist` dependencies to be
-	sure that macosx/configure gets generated whenever it does not exist.

-2007-09-03  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2007-08-28  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Use a table lookup in ParseLexeme() to

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Used unions to better clarify overloading of

-
-2007-08-27  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Call TclCompileSyntaxError() when
-	expression syntax errors are found when compiling expressions. With
-	this in place, convert TclCompileExpr to return void, since there's no
-	longer any need to report TCL_ERROR.
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: Update callers.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	New routine TclCompileSyntaxError()
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: to directly compile bytecodes that report a
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: syntax error, rather than (ab)use a call to
-	TclCompileReturnCmd. Also, undo the most recent commit that papered
-	over some issues with that (ab)use. New routine produces a new opcode
-	INST_SYNTAX, which is a minor variation of INST_RETURN_IMM. Also a bit
-	of constification.
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: Move the deallocation of local LiteralTable
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	entries into TclFreeCompileEnv().
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Update callers.
-

-

-
-	* library/init.tcl ([auto_load_index]): Delete stray "]" that created

-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd):	Added crash protection

-2007-08-20  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_SUB): fix usage of the new macro for

-
-2007-08-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (Overflowing, TclIncrObj, TclExecuteByteCode):
-	Encapsulate Miguel's last change in a more mnemonic macro.

-2007-08-19  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: changed the check for overflow in sums,

-	before the switch. Reduces both runtime and obj size a tiny bit.
-
-2007-08-16  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Added a "constant" field to the OpNode
-	struct (again "free" due to alignment requirements) to mark those

-	CompileExprTree() and its callers to precompute these constant
-	subexpressions at compile time. This resolves the issue raised in [Bug

-2007-08-10  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Revise CompileExprTree() to use the
-	OpNode mark field scheme of tree traversal. This eliminates the need
-	to use magic values in the left and right fields for that purpose.
-	Also stop abusing the left field within ParseExpr() to store the
-	number of arguments in a parsed function call. CompileExprTree() now

-
-	* generic/tclInt.h: remove comments refering to VAR_SCALAR, as that

-
-	* tests/parseExpr.test: Update source file name of expr parser code.
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Added a "mark" field to the OpNode
-	struct, which is used to guide tree traversal. This field costs
-	nothing since alignement requirements used the memory already.
-	Rewrote ConvertTreeToTokens() to use the new field, which permitted
-	consolidation of utility routines CopyTokens() and
-	GenerateTokensForLiteral().

-
-	*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY *** (tclInt.h and tclCompile.h)
-	Extensions that access internals defined in tclInt.h and/or
-	tclCompile.h may lose both binary and source compatibility. The
-	relevant changes are:
-	1. 'struct Var' is completely changed, all acceses to its internals
-	   (either direct or via the TclSetVar* and TclIsVar* macros) will
-	   malfunction. Var flag values and semantics changed too.
-	2. 'struct Bytecode' has an additional field that has to be
-	   initialised to NULL
-	3. 'struct Namespace' is larger, as the varTable is now one pointer
-	   larger than a Tcl_HashTable. Direct access to its fields will
-	   malfunction.
-	4. 'struct CallFrame' grew one more field (the second such growth with
-	   respect to Tcl8.4).
-	5. API change for the functions TclFindCompiledLocal, TclDeleteVars
-	   and many internal functions in tclVar.c
-
-	Additionally, direct access to variable hash tables via the standard
-	Tcl_Hash* interface is to be considered as deprecated. It still works
-	in the present version, but will be broken by further specialisation
-	of these hash tables. This concerns especially the table of array
-	elements in an array, as well as the varTable field in the Namespace
-	struct.

-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC, TclGetSrcInfoForCmd):
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclTrace.c (TclCheck(Interp|Execution)Traces):
-	Removed the need for TEBC to inspect the command before calling TEOvI,

-	into TEOvI/GetCommandSource.

-
-	* library/platform/platform.tcl: Fixed bug in 'platform::patterns'
-	* library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: where identifiers not matching
-	* unix/Makefile.in: the special linux and solaris forms would not
-	* win/Makefile.in: get 'tcl' as an acceptable platform added to
-	* doc/platform.n: the result. Bumped package to version 1.0.3 and
-	* doc/platform_shell.n: updated documentation and Makefiles. Also
-	fixed bad version info in the documentation of platform::shell.
-
-2007-07-19  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParse.c:	In contexts where interp and parsePtr->interp
-	might be different, be sure to use the latter for error reporting.
-	Also pulled the interp argument back out of ParseTokens() since we
-	already had a parsePtr->interp to work with.
-
-2007-07-18  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Removed unused arguments and variables
-
-2007-07-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (ParseExpr):	While adding comments to
-	explain the operations of ParseExpr(), made significant revisions to
-	the code so it would be easier to explain, and in the process made the
-	code simpler and clearer as well.
-
-2007-07-15  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	More commentary.
-	* tests/parseExpr.test:		Several tests of syntax error messages

-	visible the context relevant to the reported error.
-
-2007-07-12  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Factored out, corrected, and commented

-2007-07-11  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileWhileCmd):
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript):
-	Corrected faulty avoidance of INST_START_CMD when the first opcode in
-	a script is within a loop (as produced by 'while 1'), so that the
-	corresponding command is properly counted. [Bug 1752146]
-
-2007-07-11  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Added a "parseOnly" flag argument to
-	ParseExpr() to indicate whether the caller is Tcl_ParseExpr(), with an
-	end goal of filling a Tcl_Parse with Tcl_Tokens representing the
-	parsed expression, or TclCompileExpr() with the goal of compiling and
-	executing the expression. In the latter case, more aggressive
-	conversion of QUOTED and BRACED lexeme to literals is done. In the
-	former case, all such conversion is avoided, since Tcl_Token
-	production would revert it anyway. This enables simplifications to the
-	GenerateTokensForLiteral() routine as well.
-
-2007-07-10  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Added a field for operator precedence
-	to be stored directly in the parse tree. There's no memory cost to
-	this addition, since that memory would have been lost to alignment
-	issues anyway. Also, converted precedence definitions and lookup
-	tables to use symbolic constants instead of raw number for improved
-	readability, and continued extending/improving/correcting comments.
-	Removed some unused counter variables. Renamed some variables for
-	clarity and replaced some cryptic logic with more readable macros.
-
-2007-07-09  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Revision so that the END lexeme never
-	gets inserted into the parse tree. Later tree traversal never reaches
-	it since its location in the tree is not variable. Starting and
-	stopping with the START lexeme (node 0) is sufficient. Also finished
-	lexeme code commentary.
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Added missing creation and return of
-	the Tcl_Parse fields that indicate error conditions. [Bug 1749987]
-
-2007-07-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2007-07-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclHash.c (CompareStringKeys): Always use the strcmp()
-	version; the operation is functionally equivalent, the speed is
-	identical (up to measurement limitations), and yet the code is
-	simpler. [FRQ 951168]
-
-2007-07-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Removed TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATIBILITY and
-	* generic/tclHash.c:	any code enabled when it is set to 0. We will
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:	always want to preserve binary compat
-	of the structs that appear in the interface through the 8.* series of

-	alternative.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:	Removed dead code.
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Removed dead code, old implementations
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:	of expr parsing and compiling, including the

-
-2007-06-29  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclAlloc.c:		on Darwin, ensure memory allocated by

-	traced. INST_INVOKE now calls into this function instead of inlining
-	parts of TEOvI. Same perf, better isolation.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPAT*** There is a subtle issue with the timing of
-	execution traces that is changed here - first change appeared in my

-
-2007-06-09  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_INVOKE): isolated two vars to the small
-	block where they are actually used.
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): rewritten to make the
-	logic clearer; slightly faster too.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Split TEOv in two, by separating a processor
-	for non-TCL_OK returns. Also split TEOvI in a full version that
-	handles non-existing and traced commands, and a separate shorter
-	version for the regular case.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Moved the generation of command strings for
-	* generic/tclTrace.c:	traces: previously in Tcl_EvalObjv(), now in
-	TclCheck[Interp|Execution]Traces(). Also insured that the strings are
-	properly NUL terminated at the correct length. [Bug 1693986]
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY in internal API***
-	The functions TclCheckInterpTraces() and TclCheckExecutionTraces() (in
-	internal stubs) used to be noops if the command string was NULL, this
-	is not true anymore: if the command string is NULL, they generate an
-	appropriate string from (objc,objv) and use it to call the traces. The
-	caller might as well not call them with a NULL string if he was
-	expecting a noop.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Extend usage of TclLimitReady() and
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: (new) TclLimitExceeded() macros.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	New TclCleanupCommandMacro for core usage.

-	* generic/tclCompile.h: expanded literal words. These sections were
-	mostly in place to enable [info frame] to discover line information in
-	expanded literals. Since the parser now generates a token for each
-	post-expansion word referring to the right location in the original
-	script string, [info frame] gets all the data it needs.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Revised the parser so that it never produces
-	* generic/tclParse.c:	TCL_TOKEN_EXPAND_WORD tokens when parsing an
-	* tests/parse.test:	expanded literal word; that is, something like
-	{*}{x y z}. Instead, generate the series of TCL_TOKEN_SIMPLE_WORD

-	* generic/tclListObj.c: reverting [Patch 738900] (committed on
-	2007-04-20). Causes some Tk test breakage of unknown importance, but

-	not warrant investigation at this time.
-
-2007-04-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictKeysCmd): Rewrote so that the lock on the

-	return from the 'binary format' command leaked the result buffer.
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (TclLsetFlat): Fixed a bug where the new list
-	under construction was leaked in the error case. [Bug 1705778, leaks
-	K13 and K14]

-
-2007-04-22  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

-
-2007-04-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_LSHIFT): fixed a mistake introduced in
-	version 1.266 ('=' became '=='), which effectively turned the block
-	that handles native shifts into dead code. This explains why the
-	testsuite did not pick this mistake. Rewrote to make the intention
-	clear.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclDecrRefCount): change the order of the
-	branches, use empty 'if ; else' to handle use in unbraced outer

-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclNewLiteralStringObj): New macro to make
-	allocating literal string objects (i.e. objects whose value is a
-	constant string) easier and more efficient, by allowing the omission
-	of the length argument. Based on [Patch 1529526] (afredd)
-	* generic/*.c: Make use of this (in many files).

-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript, TclPrintInstruction):
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Changed the definition of
-	INST_START_CMD so that it knows how many commands start at the current

-2007-03-24  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Thread exit handler marks the current thread as
-	uninitialized. This allows exit handlers that are registered later to

-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd):	Replaced arrays on the
-	C stack and ckalloc calls with TclStackAlloc calls to use memory on
-	Tcl's evaluation stack.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Revised GrowEvaluationStack to take an
-	argument specifying the growth required by the caller, so that a
-	single reallocation / copy is the most that will ever be needed even
-	when required growth is large.
-
-2007-03-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Handle tricky case with loss
-	* tests/cmdIL.test (cmdIL-1.29):	of list rep during sorting due
-	to shimmering. [Bug 1675116]
-
-2007-03-09  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl (ReadZoneinfoFile): Added Y2038 compliance to the
-	code for version-2 'zoneinfo' files.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-56.3): Added a test case for Y2038 and
-	'zoneinfo'. Modified test initialisation to use the
-	'loadTestedCommands' function of tcltest to bring in the correct path
-	for the registry library.
-
-2007-03-08  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (TclLsetList):	Rewrite so that the routine
-	itself does not do any direct intrep surgery. Better isolates those
-	things into the implementation of the "list" Tcl_ObjType.
-
-2007-03-08  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (TclLindexList, TclLindexFlat): Moved these
-	functions to tclListObj.c from tclCmdIL.c to mirror the way that the
-	equivalent functions for [lset]'s guts are arranged.
-
-2007-03-08  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Further tweaks to the Windows time zone table
-	(restoring missing Mexican time zones). Added rudimentary handling of
-	version-2 'zoneinfo' files. Update US DST rules so that zones such as
-	'EST5EDT' get the correct transition dates.
-	* tests/clock.test: Added rudimentary test cases for 'zoneinfo'
-	parsing. Adjusted several tests that depended on obsolete US DST
-	transition rules.
-
-2007-03-07  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: add spinlock debugging and sanity checks.

-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: ensure gcc version used by
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/default.pbxuser: Xcode and configure/make are
-	* macosx/Tcl-Common.xcconfig:		consistent and independent of
-	gcc_select default and CC env var; fixes for Xcode 3.0.
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): s/CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS/ in macosx-version-min check
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-
-2007-03-07  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (TclLindex*):	Rewrites to make efficient
-	private copies of the list and indexlist arguments, so we can operate
-	on the list elements directly with no fear of shimmering effects.
-	Replaces defensive coding schemes that are otherwise required. End
-	result is that TclLindexList is entirely a wrapper around
-	TclLindexFlat, which is now the core engine of all [lindex]
-	operations.
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_AppendAllObjTypes):	Converted to simpler
-	list validity test.
-
-2007-03-07  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclRegexp.c (TclRegAbout): Generate information about a
-	regexp as a Tcl_Obj instead of as a string, which is more efficient.
-
-2007-03-07  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/clock.tcl: Adjusted Windows time zone table to handle new US
-	DST rules by locale rather than as Posix time zone spec.
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-39.6, clock-49.2, testclock::registry):
-	Adjusted tests to simulate new US rules.

-
-2007-03-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclLink.c (LinkedVar): Added macro to conceal at least some
-	of the pointer hackery.
-
-2007-03-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LreverseObjCmd):	Added missing
-	TclInvalidateStringRep() call when we directly manipulate the intrep
-	of an unshared "list" Tcl_Obj. [Bug 1672585]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_JoinObjCmd):	Revised [join] implementation
-	to append Tcl_Obj's instead of strings. [RFE 1669420]
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Info*Cmd):	Code simplifications and
-	optimizations.
-
-2007-03-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclPrintInstruction): Added a scheme to allow
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (AuxDataPrintProc):    aux-data to be printed
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (Print*Info):	      out for debugging. For
-	this to work, immediate operands referring to aux-data must be
-	identified as such in the instruction descriptor table using
-	OPERAND_AUX4 (all are always 4 bytes).
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Rewrote the compiled
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictCmd): [dict update] so that it
-	* generic/tclCompile.h (DictUpdateInfo):     stores critical
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-21.{14,15}):	     non-varying data in an
-	aux-data value instead of a (shimmerable) literal. [Bug 1671001]

-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrangeObjCmd):	Rewrite in the same

-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd):	Stop throwing away
-	* tests/foreach.test (foreach-1.14):	useful error information when
-	loop variable sets fail.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LassignObjCmd):	Rewrite to make an

-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd):	Rewrite to make

-
-2007-03-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileForeachCmd): Prevent an unexpected

-
-2007-02-26  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c (FreeReflectedChannel): Added the missing
-	refcount release between NewRC and FreeRC for the channel handle

-
-2007-02-26  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd):	Removed surplus
-	copying of the objv array that used to be a workaround for [Bug
-	404865]. That bug is long fixed.
-
-2007-02-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Use new interface in Tcl_EvalObjEx so that the
-	recounting logic of the List internal rep need not be repeated there.
-	Better encapsulation of internal details.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	New internal routine TclListObjCopy() used
-	* generic/tclListObj.c: to efficiently do the equivalent of [lrange
-	$list 0 end]. After some experience with this, might be a good
-	candidate for exposure as a public interface. It's useful for callers
-	of Tcl_ListObjGetElements() who want to control the ongoing validity
-	of the returned objv pointer.
-
-2007-02-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/pkg.test: Added tests for the case of an alpha package

-
-2007-02-13  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tools/fix_tommath_h.tcl: Further tweaking for the x86-64. The change
-	is to make 'mp_digit' be an 'unsigned int' on that platform; since
-	we're using only 32 bits of it, there's no reason to make it a 64-bit

-
-	* tools/fix_tommath_h.tcl: Added code to patch out a check for
-	__x86_64__ that caused Tommath to use __attributes(TI)__ for the
-	mp_word type. Tetra-int's simply fail on too many gcc-glibc-OS
-	combinations to be ready for shipment today, even if they work for

-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c: Revised implementation of TclInvertOpCmd to

-	This demonstrates a path toward avoiding mountains of code duplication
-	in tclMathOp.c and tclExecute.c.

-	compile directly from the new internal structures are completed.

-	that tclPort.h can once again be included without tclInt.h.
-
-	* generic/tclEnv.c (Darwin): mark _environ symbol as unexported even
-	when MODULE_SCOPE != __private_extern__.

-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Refactored and renamed the routines

-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:	TclAppendPrintfToObj, TclAppendFormatToObj,
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	TclObjPrintf, and TclObjFormat, with the
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: intent of making the latter list, plus
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: TclAppendLimitedToObj and
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: TclAppendObjToErrorInfo, public via a revised

-2006-10-31  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c, generic/tcl.h, generic/tclInterp.c:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c: removing the flag bit TCL_EVAL_NOREWRITE, the
-	last remnant of the callObjc/v fiasco. It is not needed, as it is now
-	always set and checked or'ed with TCL_EVAL_INVOKE.
-
-2006-10-31  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/rules.vc: Fix for [Bug 1582769] - options conflict with VC2003.
-
-2006-10-31  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c, generic/tclNamesp.c, generic/tclProc.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Removed the callObjc and callObjv fields from the
-	Interp structure. They did not function correctly and made other parts
-	of the core amazingly complex, resulting in a substantive change to
-	[info level] behaviour. [Bug 1587618]
-	* library/clock.tcl: Removed use of [info level 0] for calculating the
-	command name as used by the user and replace with a literal. What's
-	there now is sucky, but at least appears to be right to most users.
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-42.7,namespace-47.1): Reverted
-	changes to these tests.
-	* tests/info.test (info-9.11,info-9.12): Added knownBug constraint
-	since these tests require a different behaviour of [info level] than
-	is possible because of other dependencies.
-
-2006-10-30  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl (option-toc): handle any kind of options
-	defined toc section (needed for ttk docs)
-
-2006-10-30  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TEOVI): insured that the interp's callObjc/v
-	fields are restored after traces run, as they be spoiled. This was
-	causing a segfault in tcllib's profiler tests.
-
-2006-10-30  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_MOD): Corrected improper testing of the
-	* tests/expr.test:		   sign of bignums when applying Tcl's
-	division rules. Thanks to Peter Spjuth. [Bug 1585704]
-
-2006-10-29  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (EnsembleImplementationCmd):
-	* tests/namespace.test (47.7-8): reverted a wrong "optimisation" that
-	completely broke snit; added two tests.
-
-2006-10-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (ObjInterpProcEx, TclObjInterpProcCore): Split the
-	core of procedures to make it easier to build procedure-like code
-	without going through horrible contortions. This is the last critical
-	component to make advanced OO systems workable as simple loadable
-	extensions. TOIPC is now in the internal stub table.
-	(MakeProcError, MakeLambdaError): Refactored ProcessProcResultCode to
-	be simpler, some of which goes to TclObjInterpProcCore, and the rest
-	of which is now in these far simpler routines which just do errorInfo
-	stack generation for different types of procedure-like entity.
-	* tests/apply.test (apply-5.1): Updated to expect the more informative
-	form of message.
-
-2006-10-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclVar.c (HasLocalVars): New macro to make various bits and
-	pieces cleaner.
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (TclSetNsPath): Expose SetNsPath() through
-	internal stubs table with semi-external name.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (CallFrame): Add a field for handling context data
-	for extensions (like object systems) that should be tied to a call
-	frame (and not a command or interpreter).
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclRenameCommand): Change to take CONST args;
-	they were only ever used in a constant way anyway, so this appears to
-	be a spot that was missed during TIP#27 work.
-
-2006-10-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (SetLambdaFromAny): minor change, eliminate
-	redundant call to Tcl_GetString (thanks aku).
-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (ApplyObjCmd):
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (EnsembleImplementationCmd): replaced ckalloc
-	(heap) with TclStackAlloc (execution stack).
-
-2006-10-24  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/info.test (info-9.11-12): tests for [Bug 1577492]
-	* tests/apply.test (apply-4.3-5): tests for [Bug 1574835]
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (ObjInterpProcEx): disable itcl hacks for calls
-	from ApplyObjCmd (islambda==1), as they mess apply's error messages
-	[Bug 1583266]
-
-2006-10-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (ApplyObjCmd): fix wrong#args for apply by using
-	the ensemble rewrite engine. [Bug 1574835]
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (AliasObjCmd): previous commit missed usage of
-	TCL_EVAL_NOREWRITE for aliases.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal): removed redundant check
-	for ensembles. [Bug 1577628]
-
-	* library/clock.tcl (format, scan): corrected wrong # args messages to
-	* tests/clock.test (3.1, 34.1):	    make use of the new rewrite
-	capabilities of [info level]
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	   Lets TEOV update the iPtr->callObj[cv] new
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	   fields, except when the flag bit
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	   TCL_EVAL_NOREWRITE is present. These values
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	   are used by Tcl_PushCallFrame to initialise
-	* generic/tclProc.c:	   the frame's obj[cv] fields, and allows
-	* tests/namespace.test:	   [info level] to know and use ensemble
-	rewrites. [Bug 1577492]
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	The return value from [info level 0] on interp alias calls is changed:
-	previously returned the target command (including curried values), now
-	returns the source - what was actually called.
-
-2006-10-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	   Modified the Tcl call stack so there is
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	   always a valid CallFrame, even at level 0
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:	   [Patch 1577278]. Most of the changes
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	   involve removing tests for a NULL
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	   iPtr->(var)framePtr. There is now a
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	   CallFrame pushed at interp creation with a
-	* generic/tclProc.c:	   pointer to it stored in iPtr->rootFramePtr.
-	* generic/tclTrace.c:	   A second unused field in Interp is
-	* generic/tclVar.c:	   hijacked to enable further functionality,
-	currently unused (but with several FRQs depending on it).
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Any user that includes tclInt.h and needs to determine if it is
-	running at level 0 should change (iPtr->varFramePtr == NULL) to
-	(iPtr->varFramePtr == iPtr->rootFramePtr).

-
-	* generic/tcl.h, generic/tclHash.c: Tcl_FindHashEntry now calls
-	Tcl_CreateHashEntry with a newPtr set to NULL: this would have caused
-	a segfault previously and eliminates duplicated code. A macro has been
-	added to tcl.h (only used when TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATABALITY is
-	not set - i.e., not by default).
-
-2006-10-20  Reinhard Max  <max@tclers.tk>
-

-
-	* macosx/GNUmakefile: don't redo prebinding of non-prebound binaires.
-
-2006-10-16  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c (ExactRequirement):	Plugged memory leak. Also
-	changed Tcl_Alloc()/Tcl_Free() calls to ckalloc()/ckfree() for easier
-	memory debugging in the future. [Bug 1568373]
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:	Revise tcltest bump to 2.3a1.
-	* library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: This permits more features to be
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	added to tcltest before we reach version 2.3.0
-	* win/Makefile.in:	best timed to match the release of Tcl 8.5.0.
-	* win/makefile.vc:	This also serves as a demo of TIP 268 features
-
-2006-10-13  Colin McCormack <coldstore@users.sf.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: corrected erroneous attempt to protect against

-	* win/tclWinFile.c: alfredd supplied patch to fix [Bug 1575837]
-
-2006-10-13  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (ApplyObjCmd):
-	* tests/interp.test (interp-14.5-10): made [interp alias] use the

-	1576006]
-
-2006-10-12  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/nmakehlp.c: Replaced all wnsprintf() calls with snprintf().
-	wnsprintf was not in my shwlapi header file (VC++6)
-
-2006-10-11  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c (Tcl_PackageRequireEx):	Corrected crash when
-	argument version=NULL passed in.
-
-2006-10-10  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* changes:	Updates for 8.5a5 release.
-
-	* generic/tclNamespace.c (TclTeardownNamespace):  After the
-	commandPathSourceList of a namespace is cleared, set the
-	commandPathSourceList to NULL so we don't try to walk the list a
-	second time, possibly after it is freed. [Bug 1566526]
-	* tests/namespace.test (namespace-51.16):	Added test.
-
-2006-10-09  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/UpVar.3: brough the docs in accordance to the code. Ever since
-	8.0, Tcl_UpVar(2)? accepts TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY as a flag value, and
-	var-3.4 tests for proper behaviour. The docs only allowed 0 and
-	TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY. [Bug 1574099]
-
-2006-10-09  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/*.test: updated all tests to refer explicitly to the global
-	variables ::errorInfo, ::errorCode, ::env and ::tcl_platform: many
-	were relying on the alternative lookup in the global namespace, that
-	feature is tested specifically in namespace and variable tests.
-
-	The modified testfiles are: apply.test, basic.test, case.test,
-	cmdIL.test, cmdMZ.test, compExpr-old.test, error.test, eval.test,

-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:

-
-2006-09-28  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c (CompareVersions): Bugfix. Check string lengths
-	* tests/pkg.test: before comparison. The shorter string is the smaller
-	number. Added testcases as well. Interestingly all existing test cases
-	for vcompare compared numbers of the same length with each other. [Bug
-	1563836]
-
-2006-09-28  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetsObj): added two test'n'panic guards for
-	possible NULL derefs, [Bug 1566382] and coverity #33.
-
-2006-09-27  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Corrected error in INST_LSHIFT in the
-	* tests/expr.test:	calculation done to determine whether a shift
-	in the (long int) type is possible. The calculation had literal value
-	"1" where it needed a value "1L" to compute the correct result. Error
-	detected via testing with the math::bigfloat package [Bug 1567222]
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c (CompareVersion):	Flatten strcmp() results to
-	{-1, 0, 1} to match expectations of CompareVersion() callers.
-
-2006-09-27  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/regc_color.c (singleton):
-	* generic/regc_cvec.c (addmcce):
-	* generic/regcomp.c (compile, dovec): the static function addmcce does
-	nothing when called with two NULL pointers; the only call is by
-	compile with two NULL pointers (regcomp.c #includes regc_cvec.c).
-	Large parts (all?) the code for mcce (multi character collating
-	element) that we do not use is ifdef'ed out with the macro
-	REGEXP_MCCE_ENABLE.
-	This silences coverity bugs 7, 16, 80
-
-	* generic/regc_color.c (uncolorchain):
-	* generic/regc_nfa.c (freearc): changed tests and asserts to
-	equivalent formulation, designed to avoid an explicit comparison to
-	NULL and satisfy coverity that 6 and 9 are not bugs.
-
-2006-09-27  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/pkg.test: Added test for version comparison at the 32bit
-	boundary. [Bug 1563836]
-
-	* generic/tclPkg.c: Rewrote CompareVersion to perform string
-	comparison instead of numeric. This breaks through the 32bit limit on
-	version numbers. See code for details (handling of leading zeros,
-	signs, etc.). un-CONSTed some arguments of CompareVersions,
-	RequirementSatisfied, and AllRequirementsSatisfied. The new compare
-	modifies the string (temporary string terminators). All callers use
-	heap-allocated ver-intreps, so we are good with that. [Bug 1563836]
-
-2006-09-27  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (TclGlob): added a panic for a call with
-	TCL_GLOBMODE_TAILS and pathPrefix==NULL. This would cause a segfault,
-	as found by coverity #26.
-
-2006-09-26  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* doc/Encoding.3:	 Added covariant 'const' qualifier for the
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	 Tcl_EncodingType argument to
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Tcl_CreateEncoding. [Further TIP#27 work.]
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	 Reran 'make genstubs'.

-
-2006-09-26  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	As 2006-09-22 commit from Donal K. Fellows
-	demonstrates, "#define NULL 0" is just wrong, and as a quotable chat
-	figure observed, "If NULL isn't defined, we're not using a C compiler"
-	Improper fallback definition of NULL removed.
-
-2006-09-25  Pat Thoyts	<patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	More fixing which struct stat to refer to.
-	* generic/tclGetDate.y: Some casts from time_t to int required.
-	* generic/tclTimer.c:	Tcl_Time structure members are longs.
-	* win/makefile.vc:	Support for varying compiler options
-	* win/rules.vc:		and build to platform-specific subdirs.
-
-2006-09-25  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_StackChannel): Fixed [Bug 1564642], aka

-
-	* generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEvents): Simplified the code in hopes

-
-2006-09-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEvents): Make it clear what happens

-
-2006-09-24  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

-
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c (TclCreateThread): Use NULL instead of 0 as

-
-2006-09-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl (msgcat::Init): on Darwin, add fallback of
-	* tests/msgcat.test:			    default msgcat locale to
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetVariables):    current CFLocale
-	identifier if available (via private ::tcl::mac::locale global, set at
-	interp init when on Mac OS X 10.3 or later with CoreFoundation).
-
-	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: add 'line' verbose level: prints source
-	* doc/tcltest.n:	       file line information of failing tests.
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: add new tclUnixCompat.c file;
-	revise tests target to use new tcltest 'line' verbose level.

-	sizeof(char *) boundary.
-
-2006-09-07  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:	Rewritten MT-safe wrappers to return ptrs to

-	* tests/main.text (Tcl_Main-4.4):	Test corrected to not be
-	timing sensitive to the Bug 1481986 fix. [Bug 1550858]
-
-2006-09-04  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/package.n: correct package example
-
-2006-08-31  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:	Corrected flawed logic for disabling
-	the INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC instruction at the end of an expression
-	when function arguments contain operators. [Bug 1541274]
-
-	* tests/expr-old.test:	The remaining failing tests reported in
-	* tests/expr.test:	[Bug 1381715] are all new in Tcl 8.5, so
-	there's really no issue of compatibility with Tcl 8.4 result to deal
-	with. Fixed by updating tests to expect 8.5 results.
-
-2006-08-29  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Dropped the old expr parser.

-	with more efficient Tcl_Eval(Obj)Ex
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (valgrindshell): add valgrindshell target and
-	update default VALGRINDARGS. User can override, or add to it with
-	VALGRIND_OPTS env var.
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (DoGlob): match incrs with decrs.
-
-2006-08-29  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Use the "parent" field of orphan
-	ExprNodes to store the closure of left pointers. This lets us avoid
-	repeated re-scanning leftward for the left boundary of subexpressions,
-	which in worst case led to near O(N^2) runtime.
-
-2006-08-29  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: Fixed the issue (typo) that was causing

-	FreeBSD (and possibly other Unix platforms).
-
-2006-08-29  Colin McCormack  <coldstore@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:	Added test for NULL return from

-2006-08-28  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Revised ObjPrintfVA to take care to
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	copy only whole characters when doing
-	%s formatting. This relieves callers of TclObjPrintf() and
-	TclFormatToErrorInfo() from needing to fix arguments to character
-	boundaries. Tcl_ParseExpr() simplified by taking advantage. [Bug
-	1547786]
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Corrected TclFormatObj's failure to
-	count up the number of arguments required by examining the format
-	string. [Bug 1547681]
-
-2006-08-27  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>

-
-2006-08-24  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* library/tzdata: Regenerated, including several new files, from
-	Olson's tzdata2006j.
-	* library/clock.tcl:
-	* tests/clock.test: Removed an early testing hack that allowed loading
-	'registry' from the build tree rather than an installed one. This is a
-	workaround for [Bug 15232730], which remains open because it's a
-	symptom of a deeper underlying problem.
-
-2006-08-23  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Minimal collection of new tests
-	* tests/parseExpr.test:		testing the error messages of the new

-	during that effort.
-
-2006-08-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:	Revisions to complete the thread finalization
-	of the cwdPathPtr. [Bug 1536142]
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Revised mistaken call to
-	TclCheckBadOctal(), so both [expr 08] and [expr 08z] have same
-	additional info in error message.

-	msys build is possible.
-
-2006-08-21  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): if the run loop is
-	already running (e.g. if Tcl_WaitForEvent was called recursively),
-	re-run it in a custom run loop mode containing only the source for the
-	notifier thread, otherwise wakeups from other sources added to the
-	common run loop modes might get lost.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): on 64-bit Darwin,
-	pthread_cond_timedwait() appears to have a bug that causes it to wait
-	forever when passed an absolute time which has already been exceeded
-	by the system time; as a workaround, when given a very brief timeout,
-	just do a poll on that platform. [Bug 1457797]
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (ClockClicksObjCmd): add support for Darwin
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TimeObjCmd):	  nanosecond resolution timer

-
-2006-08-18  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): add support for --enable-64bit on x86_64, for
-	universal builds including x86_64, for 64-bit CoreFoundation on
-	Leopard and for use of -mmacosx-version-min instead of
-	MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	  add fixes for building on Leopard and
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:	  support for 64-bit CoreFoundation on Leopard
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c:
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: on Darwin x86_64, disable use of vfork as it
-	causes execve to fail intermittently. (rdar://4685553)
-
-	* generic/tclTomMath.h: on Darwin 64-bit, for now disable use of
-	128-bit arithmetic through __attribute__ ((mode(TI))), as it leads to
-	link errors due to missing fallbacks. (rdar://4685527)
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: add x86_64 to universal build,
-	switch native release targets to use DWARF with dSYM, Xcode 3.0
-	changes
-	* macosx/README: updates for x86_64 and Xcode 2.4.
-
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/default.pbxuser: add test suite target that
-	* macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: runs the tcl test suite at
-	build time and shows clickable test suite errors in the GUI build
-	window.
-
-	* tests/macOSXFCmd.test: fix use of deprecated resource fork paths.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): move code that is only
-	needed when TCL_LIBRARY is defined to run only in that case.
-
-	* generic/tclLink.c (LinkTraceProc): fix 64-bit signed-with-unsigned
-	comparison warning from gcc4 -Wextra.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclUnixWaitForFile): with timeout < 0, if
-	select() returns early (e.g. due to a signal), call it again instead
-	of returning a timeout result. Fixes intermittent event-13.8 failures.
-
-2006-08-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:		Revised the new set of expression

-	* generic/*.c, macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c, unix/tclUnixNotfy.c,
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Tidy up invocations of Tcl_Panic() to promote

-						 in global namespace.
-	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_UnsetObjCmd): Remove unreachable clause.
-
-2006-08-09  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-	* doc/ParseCmd.3, doc/expr.n, doc/set.n, doc/subst.n, doc/switch.n:
-	* doc/tclvars.n: Ensure that uses of [expr] in documentation examples
-	are also good style (with braces) unless otherwise necessary. [Bug

-
-2006-08-03  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): for USE_VFORK: ensure
-	standard channels are initialized before vfork() so that the child
-	doesn't potentially corrupt global state in the parent's address space
-
-	* tests/compExpr-old.test: add 'oldExprParser' constraint to all tests
-	* tests/compExpr.test:	   that depend on the exact format of the
-	* tests/compile.test:	   error messages of the pre-2006-07-05
-	* tests/expr-old.test:	   expression parser. The constraint is on by
-	* tests/expr.test:	   default (i.e those tests still fail), but
-	* tests/for.test:	   can be turned off by passing '-constraints
-	* tests/if.test:	   newExprParser' to tcltest, which will skip
-	* tests/parseExpr.test:	   the 196 failing tests in the testsuite that
-	* tests/while.test:	   are caused by the new expression parser
-	error messages.
-
-2006-07-31  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (ConvertLocalToUTCUsingC): Corrected a regression
-	that caused dates before 1969 to be one day off in the :localtime time
-	zone if TZ is not set. [Bug 1531530]
-
-2006-07-30  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclClock.c (GetJulianDayFromEraYearMonthDay): Corrected
-	several errors in converting dates before the Common Era [Bug 1426279]
-	* library/clock.tcl: Corrected syntax errors in generated code for %EC
-	%Ey, and %W format groups [Bug 1505383]. Corrected a bug in cache
-	management for format strings containing [glob] metacharacters [Bug
-	1494664]. Corrected several errors in formatting/scanning of years
-	prior to the Common Era, and added the missing %EE format group to
-	indicate the era.
-	* tools/makeTestCases.tcl: Added code to make sure that %U and %V
-	format groups are included in the tests. (The code depends on %U and
-	%V formatting working correctly when 'makeTestCases.tcl' is run,
-	rather than making a completely independent check.) Added tests for
-	[glob] metacharacters in strings. Added tests for years prior to the
-	Common Era.
-	* tests/clock.test: Rebuilt with new test cases for all the above.

-
-2006-07-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2006-07-20  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent):
-	create notifier thread lazily upon first call to Tcl_WaitForEvent()
-	rather than in Tcl_InitNotifier(). Allows calling exeve() in processes
-	where the event loop has not yet been run (Darwin's execve() fails in
-	processes with more than one thread), in particular allows embedders
-	to call fork() followed by execve(), previously the pthread_atfork()
-	child handler's call to Tcl_InitNotifier() would immediately recreate
-	the notifier thread in the child after a fork.
-

-
-2006-07-13  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h: Added the inclusion of <AvailabilityMacros.h>.
-	The missing header caused the upcoming #if conditions to wrongly
-	exclude realpath, causing file normalize to ignore symbolic links in
-	the path.
-
-2006-07-11  Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclAsync.c: Made Tcl_AsyncDelete() more tolerant when called
-	after all thread TSD has been garbage-collected.
-
-2006-07-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	Completely new expression parser that
-	builds a parse tree instead of operating with deep recursion. This
-	corrects reports of stack-blowing crashes parsing long expressions
-	[Bug 906201] and replaces a fundamentally O(N^2) algorithm with an
-	O(N) one [RFE 903765]. The new parser is better able to generate error
-	messages that clearly report both the nature and context of the syntax
-	error [Bugs 1029267, 1381715]. For now, the code for the old parser is
-	still present and can be activated with a "#define OLD_EXPR_PARSER
-	1". This is for the sake of a clean implementation patch, and for ease
-	of benchmarking. The new parser is non-recursive, so much lighter in
-	stack consumption, but it does use more heap, so there may be cases
-	where parsing of long expressions that succeeded with the old parser
-	will lead to out of memory panics with the new one. There are still
-	more improvements possible on that point, though significant progress
-	may require changes to the Tcl_Token specifications documented for the
-	public Tcl_Parse*() routines.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for any callers that rely on the exact
-	(usually terrible) error messages generated by the old parser. This
-	includes a large number of tests in the test suite.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		Replaced TclParseWhiteSpace() with
-	* generic/tclParse.c:		TclParseAllWhiteSpace() which is what
-	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:	all the callers really needed.
-	Breaking whitespace runs at newlines is useful only to the command
-	parsing function, and it can call the file scoped routine
-	ParseWhiteSpace() to do that.
-
-	* tests/expr-old.test:	Removed knownBug constraints that masked
-	* tests/expr.test:	failures due to revised error messages.
-	* tests/parseExpr.test:
-
-2006-06-20  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:	Changed default configuration to
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: #undef USE_OBSOLETE_FS_HOOKS which disables
-	* generic/tclTest.c:	access to the Tcl 8.3 internal routines for
-	hooking into filesystem operations. Everyone ought to have migrated to
-	Tcl_Filesystems by now.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for any code still stuck in the
-	pre-Tcl_Filesystem era.
-
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:	make genstubs
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c:	Removed dead code that permitted disabling of
-	recognition of the new 0b and 0o numeric formats.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Removed dead code that implemented alternative
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	design where numeric values did not
-	automatically narrow to the smallest Tcl_ObjType required to hold them
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	Removed dead code that was old implementation
-	of [format].
-
-2006-06-14  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h (Darwin): support MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED
-	define from AvailabilityMacros.h: override configure detection and
-	only use API available in the indicated OS version or earlier.
-
-2006-06-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/format.n, doc/scan.n: Added examples for converting between
-	characters and their numeric interpretations following user prompting.
-
-2006-06-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tclLoadDl.c (TclpDlopen): Workaround for a compiler bug in Sun
-	Forte 6. [Bug 1503729]
-
-2006-06-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* doc/GetStdChan.3:	Added recommendation that each call to
-	Tcl_SetStdChannel() be accompanied by a call to Tcl_RegisterChannel().
-
-2006-06-05  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/Alloc.3: Added documentation of promise that Tcl_Realloc(NULL,x)
-	is the same as Tcl_Alloc(x), as discussed in comp.lang.tcl. Also fixed
-	nonsense sentence to say something meaningful.
-
-2006-05-29  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_DecrRefCount): use if/else construct to allow
-	placement in unbraced outer if/else conditions. (jcw)
-
-2006-05-27  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: implemented pthread_atfork() handler that
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin):	    recreates CoreFoundation state and
-	notifier thread in the child after a fork(). Note that pthread_atfork
-	is available starting with Tiger only. Because vfork() is used by the
-	core on Darwin, [exec]/[open] are not affected by this fix, only
-	extensions or embedders that call fork() directly (such as TclX).
-	However, this only makes fork() safe from corefoundation tcl with
-	--disable-threads; as on all platforms, forked children may deadlock
-	in threaded tcl due to the potential for stale locked mutexes in the
-	child. [Patch 923072]
-
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59
-
-2006-05-24  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_SYSTEM): Fixed quoting of command script to
-	awk; it was a rarely used branch, but it was wrong. [Bug 1494160]
-
-2006-05-23  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* doc/chan.n, doc/refchan.n: Tighten up the documentation to follow a
-	slightly more consistent style with regard to argument capitalization.
-
-2006-05-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (ProcCompileProc): When a bump of the compile
-	epoch forces the re-compile of a proc body, take care not to overwrite
-	any Proc struct that may be referred to on the active call stack. Note
-	that the fix will not be effective for code that calls the private
-	routine TclProcCompileProc() directly. [Bug 1482718]
-
-2006-05-13  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors): fix leak. [Coverity issue 86]
-
-2006-05-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main):		Corrected flaw that required
-	* tests/main.test: (Tcl_Main-4.5):	processing of one interactive
-	command before passing control to the loop routine registered with
-	Tcl_SetMainLoop(). [Bug 1481986]

-
-	* generic/tclStrToD.c: Added code to support the "middle endian"
-	floating point format used in the Nokia N770's software-based floating
-	point. Thanks to Bruce Johnson for reporting this bug, originally on
-	https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Nokia+770.
-	* library/clock.tcl: Fixed a bug with Daylight Saving Time and Posix
-	time zone specifiers reported by Martin Lemburg in
-	http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/browse_thread/thread/9a8b15a4dfc0b7a0

-
-	* generic/tclRegexp.c (FinalizeRegexp): full reset data to indicate
-	readiness for reinitialization.
-
-2006-04-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct):	It seems there
-	* tests/indexObj.test:	are extensions that rely on the prior behavior
-	* doc/GetIndex.3:	that the empty string cannot succeed as a
-	unique prefix matcher, so I'm restoring Donal Fellows's solution.
-	Added mention of this detail to the documentation. [Bug 1464039]

-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
-	* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59
-
-2006-04-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	More careful calls to Tcl_DStringSetLength()
-	* win/tclWinSock.c:	to avoid creating invalid DString states. Bump
-	* win/tclWinDde.c:	to version 1.3.2. [RFE 1366195]
-	* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:
-
-	* library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl:	Bump to registry 1.2 because

-	* win/Makefile.in:	compared to the 1.1.* releases.
-
-	* win/configure.in:	Bump package version numbers.

-2006-04-05  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): Allow empty
-	strings to be matched by the Tcl_GetIndexFromObj machinery, in the
-	same manner as any other key. [Bug 1464039]
-
-2006-04-03  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Added check, panic and commentary to a
-	piece of code which relies on BUFFER_PADDING to create enough space at
-	the beginning of each buffer for the insertion of partial multibyte
-	data at the beginning of a buffer. Commentary explains why this code
-	is OK, and the panic is as a precaution if someone twiddled the
-	BUFFER_PADDING into uselessness.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Temporarily suppress the use of
-	TCL_ENCODING_END set when EOF was reached while the buffer we are
-	converting is not truly the last buffer in the queue. Together with
-	the Utf bug below it was possible to completely wreck the buffer data
-	structures, eventually crashing Tcl. [Bug 1462248]
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c (UtfToUtfProc): Stop accessing memory beyond
-	the end of the input buffer when TCL_ENCODING_END is set and the last
-	bytes of the buffer start a multi-byte sequence. This bug contributed
-	to [Bug 1462248].

-2006-03-28  Jeff Hobbs	<jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): change panics to Tcl errors

-
-2006-03-27  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* doc/CrtChannel.3:    Added TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_5, made it the
-	* generic/tcl.h:       version where the "truncateProc" is defined at,

-2006-03-27  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Merge INST_MOD computation in with the
-	INST_?SHIFT instructions, which also operate only on two integral
-	values. Also corrected flaw that made INST_BITNOT of wide values
-	require mp_int calculations. Also corrected type that missed optimized
-	handling of the tclBooleanType by the TclGetBooleanFromObj macro.
-
-	* changes:	Updates for another RC.
-
-2006-03-25  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2006-03-24  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Added a couple of missing
-	casts to 'int' that were affecting compilablity on VC6.
-
-2006-03-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Reverted latest change [Bug 506653] since it
-	reportedly killed test performance on Windows.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Revised INST_EXPON implementation to do
-	calculations in native types as much as possible, moving to mp_ints
-	only when necessary.
-
-2006-03-23  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Merged INST_EXPON handling in with the other
-	binary operators that operate on all number types (INST_ADD, etc.).
-
-	* tests/env.test: With case preserved (see 2006-03-21 commit) be sure
-	to do case-insensitive filtering. [Bug 1457065]
-
-2006-03-23  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/tcl.spec: Cleaned up and completed the spec file. An RPM can
-	now be built from the tcl source distribution with "rpmbuild -tb
-	<tarball>"
-
-2006-03-22  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* tests/stack.test: Run the stack tests in subshells, so that they are
-	reported as failed tests rather than bugs in the test suite if the
-	recursion causes a segfault.
-
-2006-03-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* changes:	Updates for another RC.

-	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: make genstubs
-
-2006-03-20  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Generate tcl8/8.4 directory
-	under Windows as well (cygwin Makefile). Related entry: 2006-03-07,
-	dgp. This moved the installation of http from 8.2 to 8.4, partially. A
-	fix of the required directory creation was done for unix on Mar 10,
-	without entry in the Changelog. This entry is for the fix of the
-	directory creation under Windows.
-
-	* unix/installManPage: There is always one even more broken "sed".
-	Moved the # comment starting character in the sed script to the
-	beginning of their respective lines. The AIX sed will not recognize
-	them as comments otherwise :( The actual text stays indented for
-	better association with the commands they belong to.

-2006-03-18  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c:
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:
-	* tests/fileName.test: Fix to [Bug 1084705] so that 'glob -nocomplain'
-	finally agrees with its documentation and doesn't swallow genuine
-	errors.
-
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for scripts that assumed '-nocomplain'
-	removes the need for 'catch' to deal with non-understood path names.
-
-	Small optimisation to implementation of pattern==NULL case of TclGlob,
-	and clarification to the documentation. [Tclvfs bug 1405317]
-
-2006-03-18  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/fCmd.test: added knownBug test case for [Bug 1394972]

-	* doc/open.n: Documented the changed behaviour of 'a'ppend mode.
-
-	* tests/io.test (io-43.1 io-44.[1234]): Rewritten to be self-contained
-	with regard to setup and cleanup. [Bug 681793]
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclGetOpenMode): Added the flag O_APPEND to the
-	list of POSIX modes used when opening a file for 'a'ppend. This
-	enables the proper automatic seek-to-end-on-write by the OS. See [Bug
-	680143] for longer discussion.
-
-	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-13.7.*): Extended the testsuite to check the
-	new handling of 'a'.

-2006-03-15  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/socket.test: Extended the timeout in socket-11.11 from 10 to
-	40 seconds to allow for really slow machines. Also extended
-	actual/expected results with value of variable 'done' to make it
-	clearer when a test fails due to a timeout. [Bug 792159]
-
-2006-03-15  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/fCmd.test: add proper test constraints so the new tests don't
-	run on Unix.
-
-2006-03-14  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclPipe.c (TclCreatePipeline): Modified the processing of
-	pipebars to fail if the last bar is followed only by redirections.
-	[Bug 768659]
-
-2006-03-14  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* doc/fconfigure.n: Clarified that -translation is binary is reported
-	as lf when queried, because it is identical to lf, except for the
-	special additional behaviour when setting it. [Bug 666770]
-
-2006-03-14  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* doc/clock.n: Removed double-quotes around section title NAME; not
-	needed.

-	section NAME, chokes older sed installations.
-
-2006-03-14  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::Defaults): Fixed handling of environment
-	variable TCLX.y_TM_PATH, bad variable reference. Thanks to Julian
-	Noble. [Bug 1448251]

-	on Windows XP/2000.
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* unix/tclUnixTest.c:
-	* win/tclWinTest.c:
-	* tests/fCmd.test: updated test suite to deal with correct permissions

-	to be dealt with shortly
-
-2006-03-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Report error when an escape encoding is
-	missing one of its sub-encodings. [Bug 506653]
-
-	* unix/configure.in:	Revert change from 2005-07-26 that sometimes
-	* unix/configure:	added $prefix/share to the tcl_pkgPath. See
-	[Patch 1231015]. autoconf-2.59.
-

-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (ObjInterpProcEx):
-	* tests/apply.test (apply-5.1): Fix [apply] error messages so that

-
-2006-03-10  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	-- Summary of changes fixing [Bug 1437595] --
-
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: Cosmetic touches and identation
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Added TclpFinalizeSockets() call.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Calls TclpFinalizeSockets() as part of the
-	TclFinalizeIOSubsystem().
-
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c: Added no-op TclpFinalizeSockets().
-
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c, win/tclWinSock.c: Finalization of sockets/pipes is
-	now solely done in TclpFinalizeSockets() and TclpFinalizePipes() and
-	not over the thread-exit handler, because the order of actions the Tcl
-	generic core will impose may result in cores/hangs if the thread exit
-	handler tears down corresponding subsystem(s) too early.
-
-2006-03-10  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: previous patch breaks tests, so removed.

-
-	* changes:	Update in prep. for 8.5a4 release.
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Package http 2.5.2 requires Tcl 8.4, so the

-	directory, not an "8.2" directory.
-
-2006-03-06  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Revised handling of TCL_EVAL_* flags to

-
-2006-03-03  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: Revised yesterday's fix for [Bug 1379287] to
-	work on Windows.
-
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Compatibility support for existing code that
-	calls Tcl_GetObjType("boolean").
-
-2006-03-02  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:		Fix for failed normalization of paths
-	* tests/fileSystem.test:	with /../ that lead back to the root

-
-2006-03-01  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* unix/installManPage: Fix the script for manpages that have quotes
-	around the .SH arguments, as doctools produces them. [Bug 1292145]
-	Some minor cleanups and improvements.
-
-2006-02-28  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Corrections to be sure that TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL
-	* tests/namespace.test: evaluations act the same as [uplevel #0]
-	* tests/parse.test:	evaluations, even when execution traces or
-	* tests/trace.test:	invocations of [::unknown] are present. [Bug
-	1439836]
-
-2006-02-22  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Corrected a few bugs in how [namespace

-	[Patch 958222]
-
-2006-02-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: Revised error message generation and handling

-	reflection layer. [Bug 1372348]
-
-2006-02-16  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c:	Disallow the "ambiguous" error message
-	* tests/indexObj.test:		when TCL_EXACT matching is requested.
-	* tests/ioCmd.test:
-
-2006-02-15  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c:	Made several routines tolerant of
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: interp == NULL arguments. [Bug 1380662]
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-
-2006-02-09  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	TIP#215 IMPLEMENTATION
-
-	* doc/incr.n:		Revised [incr] to auto-initialize when varName

-	* tests/compile.test:
-	* tests/incr-old.test:
-	* tests/incr.test:
-	* tests/set.test:

-	* tests/upvar.test:
-
-2006-01-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/dict.n: Fixed silly bug in example. Thanks to Heiner Marxen
-	<heiner.marxen@unsel.de> for catching this! [Bug 1415725]
-
-2006-01-26  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel): Tidy up and comment the
-	mess to do with setting up serial channels. This (deliberately) breaks
-	a broken FreeBSD port, indicates what we're really doing, and reduces
-	the amount of conditional compilation sections for better maintenance.
-
-2006-01-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Improved conditions on when
-	to update the FP rounding mode on FreeBSD, taken from FreeBSD port.
-
-2006-01-23  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/string.test (string-12.21): Added test for [Bug 1410553] based
-	on original bug report.
-
-2006-01-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed incorrect handling of internal rep in
-	Tcl_GetRange. Thanks to twylite and Peter Spjuth. [Bug 1410553]
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c: fixed args handling for precompiled bodies [Bug
-	1412695]; thanks to Uwe Traum.
-
-2006-01-16  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* generic/tclPipe.c (FileForRedirect): Prevent nameString from being
-	freed without having been initialized.
-	* tests/exec.test: Added a test for the above.
-
-2006-01-12  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c (Tcl_FSGetInternalRep): backported patch from
-	core-8-4-branch. A freed pointer has been overwritten causing all
-	sorts of coredumps.
-
-2006-01-12  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: fix to sharing violation [Bug 1366227]
-
-2006-01-11  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Moved Tcl_LogCommandInfo from tclBasic.c to
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	tclNamesp.c to get access to identifier with
-	* tests/error.test (error-7.0): file scope. Added check for traces on
-	::errorInfo, and when present fall back to contruction of the stack
-	trace in the variable so that write trace notification timings are
-	compatible with earlier Tcl releases. This reduces, but does not
-	completely eliminate the ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** created by
-	the 2004-10-15 commit. [Bug 1397843]
-
-2006-01-10  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/configure:    add caching, use AC_CACHE_CHECK instead of
-	* unix/configure.in: AC_CACHE_VAL where possible, consistent message
-	* unix/tcl.m4:	     quoting, sync relevant tclconfig/tcl.m4 changes
-	and gratuitous formatting differences, fix SC_CONFIG_MANPAGES with
-	default argument, Darwin improvements to SC_LOAD_*CONFIG.
-
-2006-01-09  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceInscopeCmd):	[namespace inscope]
-	* tests/namespace.test: commands were not reported by [info level].
-	[Bug 1400572]
-
-2006-01-09  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclTrace.c: Stop exporting the guts of the trace command;
-	nothing outside this file needs to see it. [Bug 971336]
-
-2006-01-05  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
-
-	* unix/tcl.m4 (TCL_CONFIG_SYSTEM): Factor out the code to determine
-	the operating system version number, as it was replicated in several
-	places.
-
-2006-01-04  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: WIN32 native console signal handler removed. This
-	was found to be interfering with TWAPI extension one. IMO, special
-	services such as signal handlers should best be done with extensions
-	to the core after discussions on c.l.t. about Roy Terry's tclsh
-	children of a real windows service shell.

-	* generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibStreamCmd): Fix compilation consistency. [Bug
-	* generic/tcl.decls:		     2470237]
-
-	* generic/tclZlib.c (Tcl_ZlibStreamGet): Corrected the semantics of
-	this function to be useful to the PNG implementation. If the argument
-	object is empty, this gives the previous semantics.
-	(Tcl_ZlibStreamChecksum): Corrected name to be less misleading; it
-	only produced Adler-32 checksums when the stream was processing the
-	right type of compressed data format.
-	(Tcl_ZlibAdler32, Tcl_ZlibCRC32): Corrected types so that they work
-	naturally with the results of Tcl_GetByteArrayFromObj().

-	each of the big release points under TCT stewardship and noting the
-	general purpose of each TIP that added C API. Overall effect is to
-	make this file much more informative to read without having to spend
-	effort correlating with TIPs and ChangeLogs.

-2008-12-23  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-				to build dir contains spaces by switching to

-2008-12-20  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in:	Renamed the static library libtcl86s.a to
-	* win/configure.in:	have a name distinct from the import library
-				libtcl86.a. This renaming dodges an ancient
-				bug in the Makefile revealed by the last
-				commit where the $(TCL_LIB_FILE) rule can
-				fire to try to build the static library in a
-				--enable-shared build (and create a static
-				library that subsequently fails to link).
-				Revised the zlib objects so that they are
-				built directly into the build dir, without
-				building an intermediate static library.
-				*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY *** for
-				embedders who link to the static library, but
-				I couldn't figure out how to sort this out
-				any other way.
-	* win/configure:	Autoconf 2.59
-
-2008-12-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* win/Makefile.in: Minor updates to make building work better with

-
-	* unix/Makefile.in (*-packages): Ensure toplevel targets fail if

-	*** 8.6a2 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
-
-	* changes:	Updates for 8.6a2 release.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Drop use of USE_COMPAT85_CONST. That added

-	support for code written for 8.5 headers.
-
-	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclReToGlob):	Added missing set of the

-
-2008-08-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Reduced the use of CONST86 and eliminated
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	the use of CONST86_RETURN to support source
-	code compatibility with Tcl 8.5 on those public routines passing
-	(Tcl_Filesystem *), (Tcl_Timer *), and (Tcl_Objtype *) values which
-	have been const-ified. What remains is the minimum configurability
-	needed to support code written for pre-8.6 headers via the new
-	-DUSE_COMPAT85_CONST compiler directive.

-
-	* library/tm.tcl: Added a 'package provide' command to the generated
-	ifneeded scripts of Tcl Modules, for early detection of conflicts
-	between the version specified through the file name and a 'provide'
-	command in the module implementation, if any. Note that this change
-	also now allows Tcl Modules to not provide a 'provide' command at all,
-	and declaring their version only through their filename.
-
-	* generic/tclProc.c (Tcl_ProcObjCmd): Fixed memory leak triggered by

-
-	* generic/tclProc.c: Completely removed ProcCompileProc, which was a

-	Itcl users will need a new release with Itcl's [Patch 2040295], or
-	else load the tiny script in that patch by themselves (rewrite
-	::unknown). Note that it is a script-only patch.

-2008-08-05  Joe English  <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixChan.c: Streamline async connect logic [Patch 1994512]
-
-2008-08-05  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Fix for [Bug 2038069] by dgp.
-	* tests/execute.test:
-
-2008-08-04  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/nre.test: Added tests for [if], [while] and [for]. A test
-	for [foreach] has been added and marked as knownbug, awaiting for it
-	to be NR-enabled.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	   Made atProcExit commands run
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	   unconditionally, streamlined
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	   atProcExit/tailcall processing in TEBC.
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* tests/unsupported.test:
-
-2008-08-04  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Stopped faulty double-logging of errors to
-	* tests/execute.test:	stack trace when a compile epoch bump triggers
-	fallback to direct evaluation of commands in a compiled script.
-	[Bug 2037338]
-
-2008-08-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	   New unsupported command atProcExit that
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	   shares the implementation with tailcall.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	   Fixed a segfault in tailcalls. Tests added.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* tests/unsupported.test:
-
-2008-08-02  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/NRE.test (removed):	Migrated tests to standard locations,
-	* tests/nre.test (new):		separating core functionality from the
-	* tests/unsupported.test (new):	experimental commands.
-
-2008-08-01  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
-	* doc/Exit.3:			Do not call Tcl_Finalize implicitly
-	* generic/tclEvent.c:		on DLL_PROCESS_DETACH as it may lead
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (DllMain):	to issues and the user should be
-	explicitly calling Tcl_Finalize before unloading regardless. Clarify
-	the docs to note the explicit need in embedded use.
-
-2008-08-01  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Revised timing of the CmdFrame stack
-	* tests/info.test:	management in TclEvalEx so that the CmdFrame
-	will still be on the stack at the time Tcl_LogCommandInfo is called to
-	append another level of -errorinfo information. Sets the stage to add
-	file and line data to the stack trace. Added test to check that [info
-	frame] functioning remains unchanged by the revision.
-
-2008-07-31  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/NRE.test:  Replaced all deep-recursing tests by shallower
-	tests that actually measure the C-stack depth. This makes them
-	bearable again (even under memdebug) and avoid crashing on failure.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	NR-enabling [catch], [if] and [for] and
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	[while] (the script, not the tests)
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* tests/NRE.test:
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Moved the few remaining defs from tclNRE.h to
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: tclInt.h, eliminated inclusion of tclNRE.h
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: everywhere.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:
-	* generic/tclNRE.h (removed):
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c:

-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* generic/tclTest.c:

-
-2008-07-30  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	 Improved tailcalls.
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* tests/NRE.test:
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclNREvalObjEx): New comments and code reorg
-	to clarify what is happening.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Guard against the value of iPtr->evalFlags
-	changing between the times where TEOV and TEOV_exception run. Thanks
-	dgp for catching this.
-
-2008-07-29  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/NRE.test: New tests that went MIA in the NRE revamping
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Clean up
-	* generic/tclNRE.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	Made use of the thread's alloc cache stored in
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	the ekeko at interp creation to avoid hitting
-	* generic/tclNRE.h:	the TSD each time an NRE callback is pushed or
-	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: pulled; the approach is suitably general
-	to extend to every other obj allocation where an interp is know; this
-	is left for some other time, requires a lot of grunt work.
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	 Fix [Bug 2030670] that cause TclStackRealloc
-	to panic on rare corner cases. Thx ajpasadyn for diagnose and patch.
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	 Completely revamped NRE implementation, with
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	 (almost) unchanged API.
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	 TEBC will require a bit of a facelift, but
-	* generic/tclInt.decls:	 TEOV at least looks great now. There are new
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	 tests (incomplete!) to verify that execution
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	 is indeed in the same TEBC instance, at the
-	* generic/tclNRE.h:	 same level in all stacks involved. Tailcalls
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:	 are still a bit leaky, still deserving to be
-	* generic/tclOOBasic.c:	 in tcl::unsupported.
-	* generic/tclOOMethod.c:
-	* generic/tclProc.c:	 Uninit'd var warnings in TEBC with -O2, no
-	* generic/tclTest.c:	 warnings otherwise.
-
-2008-07-28  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/FileSystem.3:		CONSTified many functions using
-	* generic/tcl.decls:		Tcl_Filesystem which all are supposed
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:		to be a constant, but this was not
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h:	reflected in the API: Tcl_FSData,
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:		Tcl_FSGetInternalRep, Tcl_FSRegister,
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c:		Tcl_FSNewNativePath, Tcl_FSUnregister,
-	* generic/tclTest.c:		Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath ...
-	This change complies with TIP #27.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-2008-07-28  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Added missing ref count when creating an empty
-	string as path (TclEvalEx). In 8.4 the missing code caused panics in
-	the testsuite. It doesn't in 8.5. I am guessing that the code path
-	with the missing the incr-refcount is not invoked any longer. Because
-	the bug in itself is certainly the same.
-
-2008-07-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (PushMethodCallFrame): Remove hack that should
-	have gone when this code was merged into Tcl.
-
-2008-07-27  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/Object.3:		CONSTified 3 functions using Tcl_ObjType
-	* doc/ObjectType.3:	which all are supposed to be a constant, but
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	this was not reflected in the API:
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Tcl_RegisterObjType, Tcl_ConvertToType,
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	Tcl_GetObjType
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Introduced a CONST86_RETURN, so extensions
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: which use Tcl_ObjType directly can be
-	* generic/tclOOMethod.c: modified to compile against both Tcl 8.5 and
-	* generic/tclTestobj.c:	Tcl 8.6. tclDecls.h regenerated
-	This change complies with TIP #27.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-2008-07-25  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* test/info.test: More work on singleTestInterp usability. [1605269]
-
-	* tests/info.test: Tests 38.* added, exactly testing the tracking of
-	location for uplevel scripts. Resolved merge conflict on info-37.0,
-	switched !singleTestInterp constraint to glob matching instead. Ditto
-	info-22.8, removed constraint, more glob matching, and reduced the
-	depth of the stack we check. More is coming, right now I want to
-	commit the bug fixes.
-
-	* tests/oo.test: Updated oo-22.1 for expanded location tracking.
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclInitCompileEnv): Reorganized the
-	initialization of the #280 location information to match the flow in
-	TclEvalObjEx to get more absolute contexts.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjEx): Added missing cleanup of extended
-	location information.
-
-2008-07-25  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/info.test (info-37.0): Add !singleTestInterp constraint;
-	(info-22.8, info-23.0): switch to glob matching to avoid sensitivity
-	to tcltest.tcl line number changes, remove knownBug constraint, fix
-	expected result. [Bug 1605269]
-
-2008-07-24  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/Notifier.3:      CONSTified 4 functions in the Notifier which
-	* doc/Thread.3:	       all have a Tcl_Time* in it which is supposed
-	* generic/tcl.decls:   to be a constant, but this was not reflected
-	* generic/tcl.h:       reflected in the API:
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	    Tcl_SetTimer, Tcl_WaitForEvent,
-	* generic/tclNotify.c:	    Tcl_ConditionWait, Tcl_SetMaxBlockTime
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c:
-	* generic/tclThread.c: Introduced a CONST86, so extensions which have
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: have their own Notifier (are there any?) can
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:  can be modified to compile against both Tcl
-	* win/tclWinNotify.c:  Tcl 8.5 and Tcl 8.6
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:    Regenerated tclDecls.h with "make stubs".
-	This change complies with TIP #27
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
-2008-07-23  Alexandre Ferrieux  <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/lrange.test: Added relative speed test to check for lrange
-	in-place optimization committed 2008-06-30.
-	* tests/binary.test: Added relative speed test to check for pure byte
-	array CONCAT1 optimization committed 2008-06-30.
-
-2008-07-23  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/info.test: Reordered the tests to have monotonously increasing
-	numbers.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Modified TclArgumentGet to reject pure lists
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: immediately, without search. Reworked setup of
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: eoFramePtr, doesn't need the line information,
-	* tests/info.test: more sensible to have everything on line 1 when
-	eval'ing a pure list. Updated the users of the line information to
-	special case this based on the frame type (i.e.
-	TCL_LOCATION_EVAL_LIST). Added a testcase demonstrating the new
-	behaviour.
-
-2008-07-23  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (GetCommandSource): Added comment with
-	explanation and warning for waintainers.
-
-2008-07-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: Made the new TclEnterCmdWordIndex static, and
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: ansified.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Ansified the new functions. Added missing
-	function comments.
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Reworked the handling of bytecode literals for
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: #280 to fix the abysmal performance for deep
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: recursion, replaced the linear search through
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: the whole stack with another hashtable and
-	* generic/tclInt.h: simplified the data structure used by the compiler
-	by using an array instead of a hashtable. Incidentially this also
-	fixes the memory leak reported via [Bug 2024937].
-
-2008-07-22  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	 Added numLevels field to CommandFrame, let
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	 GetCommandSource use it. This solves [Bug
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	 2017146]. Thx dgp for the analysis.
-
-2008-07-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: Extended the existing TIP #280 system (info
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: frame), added the ability to track the absolute
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: location of literal procedure arguments, and
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: making this information available to uplevel
-	* generic/tclCompile.h: eval, and siblings. This allows proper
-	* generic/tclInterp.c: tracking of absolute location through custom
-	* generic/tclInt.h: (Tcl-coded) control structures based on uplevel,
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c: etc.
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* tests/info.test:
-
-2008-07-21  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

-	* tests/winFCmd.test: test rename with inode collision
-
-2008-07-21  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	  Changed the implementation of
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	  [namespace import]; removed
-	* generic/tclDecls.h:	  Tcl_NRObjProc, replaced with
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	  Tcl_NRCmdSwap (proposed public
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	  NRE API). This should fix
-	* generic/tclNRE.h:	  [Bug 582506].
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	 NRE: enabled calling NR commands
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	 from the callbacks. Completely
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	 redone tailcall implementation
-	* generic/tclNRE.h:	 using the new feature. [Bug 2021489]
-	* generic/tclProc.c:
-	* tests/NRE.test:
-
-2008-07-20  Kevin B. Kenny  <kenykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/fileName.test: Repaired the failing test fileName-15.7 from
-	dkf's commit earlier today.
-
-2008-07-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (SetDictFromAny): Make the list->dict
-	transformation a bit more efficient; modern dicts are ordered and so
-	we can round-trip through lists without needing the string rep at all.
-	* generic/tclListObj.c (SetListFromAny): Make the dict->list
-	transformation not lossy of internal representations and hence more
-	efficient. [Bug 2008248] (ajpasadyn) but using a more efficient patch.
-
-	* tests/fileName.test: Revise to reduce the obscurity of tests. In
-	particular, all tests should now produce informative messages on
-	failure and the quantity of [catch]-based obscurity is now greatly
-	reduced; non-erroring is now checked for directly.
-
-2008-07-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/env.test: Add LANG to the list of variables that are not
-	touched by the environment variable tests, so that subprocesses can
-	get their system encoding correct.
-
-	* tests/exec.test, tests/env.test: Rewrite so that non-ASCII
-	characters are not used in the final comparison. Part of fixing [Bug
-	1513659].
-
-2008-07-18  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

-
-	* generic/tclOO.c, generic/tclOOInt.h, generic/tclOOBasic.c:
-	* generic/tclOOCall.c, generic/tclOOMethod.c: NRE-enable the TclOO
-	implementation in Tcl. No change to public APIs, except that method
-	implementations can now be NRE-aware if they choose (which normal
-	methods and forwards are). On the other hand, callers of
-	TclOOInvokeObject (which is only in the internal stub table) will need
-	to deal with the fact that it's only safe to call inside an NRE-aware

-
-	* library/package.tcl:	Removed [file readable] testing from

-
-	* generic/regc_nfa.c (duptraverse): Impose a maximum stack depth on

-2008-06-23  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: Fixed bug in Tcl_GetTranslatedPath() when
-	operating on the "Special path" variant of the "path" Tcl_ObjType
-	intrep. A full normalization was getting done, in particular, coercing
-	relative paths to absolute, contrary to what the function of producing

-2008-06-20  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-

-
-2008-06-16  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (TclInfoFrame): Moved the code looking up the
-	* tests/info.test: information for key 'proc' out of the
-	TCL_LOCATION_BC branch to after the switch, this is common to all
-	frame types. Updated the testsuite to match. This was exposed by the

-	compilation. [Bug 1987851]
-
-2008-06-16  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/ioTrans.test (iortrans-11.*): Fixed same issue as for

-
-	TIP #285 IMPLEMENTATION
-
-	* doc/Eval.3: Added documentation for the Tcl_CancelEval and
-	Tcl_Canceled functions and the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag bit.
-	* doc/after.n: Corrected the spelling of 'canceled' in the
-	documentation.
-	* doc/interp.n: Added documentation for [interp cancel].
-	* generic/tcl.decls: Added the Tcl_CancelEval and Tcl_Canceled
-	functions to the stubs table.
-	* generic/tcl.h: Added the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag bit.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c: The bulk of the script cancellation
-	functionality is defined here. Added code to initialize and manage the
-	script cancellation hash table in a thread-safe manner. Reset script
-	cancellation flags prior to increasing the nesting level (if the
-	nesting level is currently zero) and always cooperatively check for
-	script cancellation near the start of TclEvalObjvInternal and after
-	invoking async handlers.
-	* generic/tclDecls.h: Regenerated.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c: Call TclFinalizeEvaluation during finalization
-	to cleanup the script cancellation hash table. During [vwait], always
-	cooperatively check for script cancellation. Corrected the spelling of
-	'canceled' in comments to be consistent with the documentation.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Reset script cancellation flags prior to
-	increasing the nesting level (if the nesting level is currently zero)
-	and always cooperatively check for script cancellation after invoking
-	async handlers. Prevent [catch] from catching script cancellation when
-	the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag is set (similar to the manner used by TIP
-	143 when a limit has been exceeded).
-	* generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclResetCancellation to the internal
-	stubs table.
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Added asyncCancel and asyncCancelMsg fields to the
-	private Interp structure. Added private interp flag value CANCELED to
-	help control script cancellation.
-	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: Regenerated.
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_InterpObjCmd): Added [interp cancel]
-	subcommand.
-	* generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEventSource): Corrected the spelling
-	of 'canceled' in comments to be consistent with the documentation.
-	* generic/tclParse.c: Reset script cancellation flags prior to
-	* generic/tclProc.c: increasing the nesting level (if the nesting
-	level is currently zero) and cooperatively check for script
-	cancellation prior to evaluating commands.
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Regenerated.
-	* generic/tclThreadTest.c (Tcl_ThreadObjCmd): Added script
-	cancellation support ([testthread cancel]).
-	Modified [testthread id] to allow querying of the 'main' thread ID.
-	Corrected comments to reflect the actual command syntax. Made
-	[testthread wait] cooperatively check for script cancellation. Added
-	[testthread event] to allow for processing one pending event without
-	blocking.
-	* generic/tclTimer.c: Delay for a maximum of 500 milliseconds prior to
-	checking for async handlers and script cancellation.
-	* tests/cmdAH.test: Changed [interp c] to [interp create].
-	* tests/interp.test: Added and fixed tests for [interp cancel].
-	* tests/thread.test: Added tests for script cancellation via
-	[testthread cancel].
-	* tools/man2help2.tcl: Fixed problems with WinHelp target (see
-	* tools/man2tcl.c: [Bug 1934200], [Bug 1934265], and [Bug 1934272]).
-	* win/makefile.vc: Added 'pdbs' option for Windows build rules to
-	* win/rules.vc:	   allow for non-debug builds with full symbols.
-	* win/tcl.hpj.in: Corrected version for WinHelp target.
-	* win/tclWinNotify.c: Used SleepEx and WaitForSingleObjectEx on
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Windows because they are alertable.

-	details.
-
-2008-06-10  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/ioTrans.test (iortrans.tf-6.1): Fixed the [Bug 1988552],
-	reported by Kevin. Have to close the channel before removal of the
-	file. Fixed same bug in test 'iortrans.tf-11.0', after fixing missing
-	cleanup of the file in 'iortrans.tf-11.*'. Lastly fixed the names of
-	the threaded tests 'iortrans-8.*' to the correct 'iortrans.tf-8.*'.
-
-2008-06-09  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIORTrans.c (ReflectInput): Fixed a bug triggered by Pat
-	Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>. Reset the EOF flag after
-	draining the Tcl level into the result buffer, to make sure that the
-	result buffer will be drained as well by repeated calls to
-	ReflectInput should it contain more than one buffer-full of data.
-	Without that reset the higher I/O system will not call on ReflectInput
-	anymore due to the assumed EOF, thus losing the data which did not fit
-	in the buffer of the call which caused the eof and drain.
-
-2008-06-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetSortedMethodList): Plug memory leak

-	* win/Makefile.in:  Integration of new files into build rules.
-	* win/makefile.vc:  Integration of new files into build rules.
-
-	NOTE: The file 'tclIORTrans.c' has a lot of code in common with the
-	      file 'tclIORChan.c', as that made it much easier to develop the
-	      reference implementation as a separate module. Now that the

-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_SetNamespaceUnknownHandler): Corrected odd
-	logic for handling installation of namespace unknown handlers which
-	could lead too very strange things happening in the error case.
-
-2008-05-16  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c: Fix crash with tcl_traceExec. Found and fixed
-	by Alexander Pasadyn. [Bug 1964803]
-
-2008-05-15  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/makefile.vc: We should use the thread allocator for threaded
-	* win/rules.vc:	   builds. Added 'tclalloc' option to disable.
-
-2008-05-09  George Peter Staplin  <georgeps@xmission.com>
-
-	* tools/tsdPerf.c:	A loadable Tcl extension for testing TSD
-	performance.
-	* tools/tsdPerf.tcl:	A simplistic tool that uses the thread
-	extension and tsdPerf.so to get some performance metrics by,
-	simulating, simple TSD contention.
-
-2008-05-09  George Peter Staplin  <georgeps@xmission.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Make Tcl_ThreadDataKey a void *.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Change around some function names and add some
-	new per-platform declarations for thread-specific data functions.
-	* generic/tclThread.c:	Make use of of the new function names that no
-	longer have a Tclp prefix.
-	* generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Replace the core thread-specific data
-	(TSD) mechanism with an array offset solution that eliminates the hash
-	tables, and only uses one slot of native TSD. Many thanks to Kevin B.
-	Kenny for his help with this.
-
-	* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:	Add platform-specific TSD functions for use by
-	* win/tclWinThrd.c:	tclThreadStorage.c.
-
-2008-05-09  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): Corrected a bug where the test was
-	changed to use [apply] instead of a temporary proc, but the cleanup
-	script still attempted to delete the temporary proc.
-
-2008-05-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@cspool38.cs.man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictAppendCmd): Fix silly off-by
-	one error that caused a crash every time a compiled 'dict append' with
-	more than one argument was used. Found by Colin McCormack.
-
-2008-05-02  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c:	 Converted the [binary] command into an
-	* generic/tclBinary.c:	 ensemble.
-	* generic/tclInt.h:
-	* test/binary.test:	 Updated the error tests for ensemble errors.
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: Reverted accidental commit of TIP 316 APIs.
-
-2008-04-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* */*.c: A large tranche of getting rid of pre-C89-isms; if your
-	compiler doesn't support things like proper function declarations,
-	'void' and 'const', borrow a proper one when building Tcl. (The header
-	files allow building things that link against Tcl with really ancient
-	compilers still; the requirement is just when building Tcl itself.)
-
-2008-04-26  Zoran Vasiljevic  <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclAsync.c: Tcl_AsyncDelete(): panic if attempt to locate
-	handler token fails. Happens when some other thread attempts to delete
-	somebody else's token.
-
-	Also, panic early if we find out the wrong thread attempting to delete
-	the async handler (common trap). As, only the one that created the
-	handler is allowed to delete it.
-
-2008-04-24  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/ioCmd.test: Extended testsuite for reflected channel
-	implementation. Added test cases about how it handles if the rug is
-	pulled out from under a channel (= killing threads, interpreters
-	containing the tcl command for a channel, and channel sitting in a
-	different interpreter/thread.)
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c: Fixed the bugs exposed by the new testcases,
-	redone most of the cleanup and exit handling.
-
-2008-04-21  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:		Removed all code delimited by
-	* generic/tclTest.c:		USE_OBSOLETE_FS_HOOKS, completing
-	* tests/ioCmd.test:		the deprecation path for these
-	* tests/ioUtil.test (removed):	obsolete interfaces. (Code was active
-	in Tcl 8.4, present but enabled only by customized compile switch in
-	Tcl 8.5, and now completely gone for Tcl 8.6). Also removed all tests
-	relevant only to the removed interfaces.
-
-2008-04-19  George Peter Staplin  <georgeps@xmission.com>
-
-	* doc/Ensemble.3: Fix a typo: s/defiend/defined/
-	Thanks to hat0 for spotting this.
-
-2008-04-16  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		Make stubs tables 'static const' and
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:	export only module-scope pointers to
-	* generic/tclStubLib.c:		the main stubs tables (for package
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl:		initialization). [Patch 1938497]
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp):
-	* generic/tclTomMathInterface.c (TclTommath_Init):
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:		Revise Tcl_SetNotifier() to use a
-	* generic/tclNotify.c:		module-scope hooks table instead of
-	* generic/tclStubInit.c:	runtime stubs-table modification;
-	* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c:	ensure all hookable notifier functions
-	* win/tclWinNotify.c:		check for hooks; remove hook checks in
-	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:		notifier API callers. [Patch 1938497]
-
-2008-04-15  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CopyData):	Applied another patch by Alexandre
-	* io.test (io-53.8a):		Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sf.net>,
-	* chanio.test (chan-io-53.8a):	to shift EOF handling to the async
-	part of the command if a callback is specified, should the channel be
-	at EOF already when fcopy is called. Testcase by myself.
-
-2008-04-15  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* unix/Makefile.in:	Adjust tclDTrace.h dependencies for removal
-				of tclStubLib.o from TCL_OBJS. [Bug 1942795]
-
-2008-04-14  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* unix/tclUnixTime.c (NativeGetTime): Removed obsolete use of
-	'struct timezone' in the call to 'gettimeofday'. [Bug 1942197]
-
-	* tests/clock.test (clock-33.5, clock-33.5a, clock-33.8, clock-33.8a):
-	Added comments to the test that it can fail on a heavily loaded
-	system.
-
-2008-04-10  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd): Keeping check for negative
-	values, changed to not be an error, but behave like the special value
-	-1 (copy all, default).
-
-	* tests/iocmd.test (iocmd-15.{12,13}): Removed.
-
-	* tests/io.test (io-52.5{,a,b}): Reverted last change, added
-	* tests/chanio.test (chan-io-52.5{,a,b}): comment regarding the
-	meaning of -1, added two more testcases for other negative values,
-	and input wrapped to negative.
-
-2008-04-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* tests/{fCmd,unixFCmd,winFCmd,winFile}.test: Tidying up of the test
-	suite to make better use of tcltest2 and be clearer about what is
-	being tested.
-
-	* win/Makefile.in (html): Added target for doing convenient
-	documentation builds, mirroring the one from unix/Makefile.
-
-2008-04-09  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/chanio.test (chan-io-52.5): Removed '-size -1' from test,
-	* tests/io.test (io-52.5): does not seem to have any bearing, and was
-	an illegal value. Test case is not affected by the value of -size,
-	test flag restoration and that evrything was properly copied.
-
-	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd): Added checking of -size value
-	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-15.{13,14}): to reject negative values, and
-	values overflowing 32-bit signed. Basic patch by Alexandre Ferrieux
-	<ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>, with modifications from me to
-	separate overflow from true negative value. Extended testsuite. [Bug
-	1557855]
-
-2008-04-09  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tests/chanio.test (chan-io-53.8,53.9,53.10): Fix typo & quoting for
-	* tests/io.test (io-53.8,53.9,53.10):	       spaces in builddir path
-
-2008-04-08  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: Added comments to the alignment macros used in
-	GrowEvaluationStack() and friends.
-
-2008-04-08  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* tools/genStubs.tcl:	Revert erroneous 2008-04-02 change marking

-2008-04-07  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/io.test (io-53.10): Testcase for bi-directional fcopy.
-	* tests/chanio.test:
-	* generic/tclIO.c: Additional changes to data structures for fcopy and
-	* generic/tclIO.h: channels to perform proper cleanup in case of a
-	channel having two background copy operations running as is now
-	possible.
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (BUSY_STATE, CheckChannelErrors, TclCopyChannel):
-	New macro, and the places using it. This change allows for
-	bi-directional fcopy on channels. Thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux
-	<ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> for the patch. [Bug 1350564]
-
-2008-04-07  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
-
-	* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendFormatToObj): Fix [format {% d}]
-	so that it behaves the same way as in 8.4 and as C's printf().
-	* tests/format.test: Add a test for '% d' and '%+d'.
-
-2008-04-05  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: (WinSymLinkDirectory): Fixed a problem that Tcl
-	was creating an NTFS junction point (IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT) but
-	filling in the union member for a Vista symbolic link. We had gotten
-	away with this error because the union member
-	(SymbolicLinkReparseBuffer) was misdefined in this file and in the
-	'winnt.h' in early versions of MinGW. MinGW 3.4.2 has the correct
-	definition of SymbolicLinkReparseBuffer, exposing the mismatch, and
-	making tests cmdAH-19.4.1, fCmd-28.*, and filename-11.* fail.
-	* tests/chanio.test (chan-io-53.9):
-	* tests/io.test (io-53.9): Made test cleanup robust against the
-	possibility of slow process shutdown on Windows.
-
-	* win/tcl.m4: Added -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE and
-	-DCRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE to the MSVC compilation flags so that the
-	compilation doesn't barf on perfectly reasonable Posix system calls.
-	* win/configure: Manually patched (don't have the right autoconf to
-	hand).
-
-2008-04-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* tests/io.test (io-53.9): Added testcase for [Bug 780533], based
-	* tests/chanio.test: on Alexandre's test script. Also fixed problem
-	with timer in preceding test, was not canceled properly in the ok case
-
-2008-04-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c (ReflectOutput): Allow zero return from write
-	when input was zero-length anyway. Otherwise keept it an error, and
-	separate the message from 'written too much'.
-
-	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-24.6): Testcase updated for changed message.
-
-	* generic/tclIORChan.c (ReflectClose): Added missing removal of the
-	now closed channel from the reflection map. Before we could crash the
-	system by invoking 'chan postevent' on a closed reflected channel,
-	dereferencing the dangling pointer in the map.
-
-	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-31.8): Testcase for the above.
-
-2008-04-03  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Applied patch [Bug 1932639] to

-	* tests/chanio.test: the first time. Thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux
-	<ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> for report and patch.

-2008-04-02  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.decls:	Remove 'export' declarations of symbols now

-
-	* generic/tclStubLib.c:	Make symbols in libtclstub.a MODULE_SCOPE to

-
-2008-03-30  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclIsNaN):
-	* unix/configure.in: Added code to the configurator to check for a
-			     standard isnan() macro and use it if one is
-			     found. This change avoids bugs where the test of
-			     ((d) != (d)) is optimized away by an
-			     overaggressive compiler. [Bug 1783544]
-	* generic/tclObj.c: Added missing #include <math.h> needed to locate
-			    isnan() after the above change.
-
-	* unix/configure: autoconf-2.61
-
-	* tests/mathop.test (mathop-25.9, mathop-25.14): Modified tests to

-2008-03-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* doc/switch.n: Clarified documentation in respect of two-argument

-
-2008-03-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h, generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: Tidied up the declarations
-	of Tcl_GetMemoryInfo so that it is always defined. Will panic when
-	called against a Tcl that was previously built without it at all,
-	which is OK because that also indicates a serious mismatch between
-	memory configuration options.
-
-2008-03-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h, generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (Tcl_GetMemoryInfo): Make
-	sure this function is available when direct linking. [Bug 1868171]
-
-	* tests/reg.test (reg-33.14): Marked nonPortable because some
-	environments have small default stack sizes. [Bug 1905562]
-
-2008-03-18  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::UnknownHandler): Changed 'source' to
-	'source -encoding utf-8'. This fixes a portability problem of Tcl
-	Modules pointed out by Don Porter. By using plain 'source' we were at
-	the mercy of 'encoding system', making modules less portable than they
-	could be. The exact scenario: A writes a TM in some weird encoding
-	which is A's system encoding, distributes it, and somewhere else it
-	cannot be read/used because the system encoding is different. Forcing
-	the use of utf-8 makes the module portable.
-
-	***INCOMPATIBILITY*** for all Tcl Modules already written in non-utf-8
-	compatible encodings.

-2008-03-18  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2008-03-18  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::Defaults): Modified handling of
-	environment variables. Solution slightly different than proposed in
-	the report. Using the underscored form TCLX_y_TM_PATH even if
-	TCLX.y_TM_PATH exists. Also using a loop to cut prevent code
-	replication. [Bug 1914604]
-
-2008-03-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictForCmd): Correct the handling
-	of stack space calculation (the jump pattern used was confusing the
-	simple-minded code doing the calculations). [Bug 1903325]
-
-	* doc/lreplace.n: Clarified documentation of what happens with
-	negative indices. [Bug 1905809] Added example, tidied up formatting.
-
-2008-03-14  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (OldMathFuncProc):	Same workaround protection
-	from bad TclStackAlloc() alignment. Thanks George Peter Staplin.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd):	Use ckalloc() to allocate
-	SortElement arrays instead of TclStackAlloc() which isn't getting
-	alignment right. Workaround for [Bug 1914503].

-
-2008-03-07  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (ReleaseKeys): Workaround for [Bug 1904907].
-	Reset the return option keys to NULL to allow full re-initialization
-	by GetKeys(). This introduces a memory leak for the key objects, but
-	gets us around a crash in the finalization of reflected channels when
-	handling returns, either at compile- or runtime. In both cases we
-	access the keys after they have been released by their thread exit
-	handler. A proper fix is entangled with the untangling of the
-	finalization ordering and attendant issues. For now we choose the
-	lesser evil.

-
-	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_SetReturnOptions):	Revised the refcount

-	Consumer routine. Thanks to Peter Spjuth for pointing out the
-	difficulties calling Tcl_SetReturnOptions with non-0-count value for
-	options.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_RETURN_STK): Revised the one caller
-	within Tcl itself which passes a non-0-count value to
-	Tcl_SetReturnOptions().
-
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo):	Revised the
-	refcount management of Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo to become that of a
-	conventional Consumer routine. This preserves the ease of use for the
-	overwhelming common callers who pass in a 0-count value, but makes the
-	proper call with a non-0-count value less surprising.
-	* generic/tclEvent.c (TclDefaultBgErrorHandlerObjCmd):	Revised the
-	one caller within Tcl itself which passes a non-0-count value to
-	Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo().
