+2003-12-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (DllMain): Add HAVE_NO_SEH
+	blocks in place of __try and __except statements
+	to support gcc builds. This is needed after
+	David's changes on 2003-12-21. [Tcl patch 858493]
+
+2003-12-23  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* generic/tclAlloc.c:	All uses of 'panic' (the macro) changed
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:	to 'Tcl_Panic' (the function).  The
+	* generic/tclBinary.c:	#define of panic in tcl.h clearly states
+	* generic/tclCkalloc.c:	it is deprecated in the comments.
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	[Patch 865264]

+
+2003-12-22  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* win/nmakehlp.c:
+	* win/rules.vc:  New feature for extensions that use rules.vc.
+	Now reads header files for version strings.  No more hard coding
+	TCL_VERSION = 8.5 and having to edit it when you swap cores.
+
+	* win/makefile.vc: VERSION macro now set by reading tcl.h for it.
+
+	* generic/tcl.h: Removed note that makefile.vc needs to have a
+	version number changed.
+
+2003-12-21  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Structured Exception Handling added around
+	Tcl_Finalize called from DllMain's DLL_PROCESS_DETACH.  We can't
+	be 100% assured that Tcl is being unloaded by the OS in a stable
+	condition and we need to protect the exit handlers should the
+	stack be in a hosed state.  AT&T style assembly for SEH under
+	MinGW has not been added yet.  This is a first part change for
+	[Patch 858493]
+
+2003-12-17  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBinary.c (DeleteScanNumberCache): fixed crashing bug
+	when numeric scan-value cache contains NULL value.
+
+2003-12-17  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: 
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: 
+	* win/tclWinFCmd.c: 
+	* tests/fCmd.test: 
+	* tests/fileSystem.test: 
+	* doc/file.n: final fix to support for relative links and
+	its implications on normalization and other parts of the
+	filesystem code.  Fixes [Bug 859251] and some Windows
+	problems with recursive file delete/copy and symbolic links.
+
+2003-12-17  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclPathObj.c: 
+	* tests/fileSystem.test: fix and tests for [Bug 860402] in new 
+	file normalization code.
+
+2003-12-17  Zoran Vasiljevic  <zv@archiware.com>
+

+	This fixes Tcl Bug #839519.
+
+	* generic/tclPathObj.c: fixed Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath
+	to always return properly refcounted path object.
+	This fixes Tcl Bug #861515.
+
+2003-12-16  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/fCmd.test: marking fCmd-9.14.2, as nonPortable, since
+	on Solaris one can change the name of the current directory
+	with 'file rename'.
+	* doc/FileSystem.3: clarified documentation on ownership
+	of return objects/strings of some Tcl_FS* calls.
+
+2003-12-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (binfo): Made variable file-local.
+
+2003-12-15  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>

+	support Borland's rc tool.
+
+	* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpUtime) : utimbuf struct not a problem 
+	with Borland.
+
+	* win/tclWinTime.c (TclpGetDate) : Borland's localtime() has
+	a slight behavioral difference.
+
+	From Helmut Giese <hgiese@ratiosoft.com> [Patch 758097].
+
+2003-12-14  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* generic/tclInt.decls: commented-out entry for
+	TclpCheckStackSpace, removing it from the Stubs table.  It's
+	already declared in tclInt.h and labeled as a function that is
+	not to be exported.  Regened tables.
+
+2003-12-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): TIP#75 Implementation
+	* tests/switch.test:	Can now get submatch information when
+	* doc/switch.n:		using -regexp matching in [switch].
+
+2003-12-14  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclPathObj.c: complete rewrite of generic file 
+	normalization code to cope with links followed by '..'.
+	[Bug 849514], and parts of [859251]
+
+2003-12-12  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinChan.c: Win32's SetFilePointer() takes LONGs not
+	DWORDs (a signed/unsigned mismatch).  Redid local vars to
+	avoid all casting except where truly required.
+
+2003-12-12  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: fix to normalization of non-existent user
+	name ('file normalize ~nobody') [Bug 858937]
+	* doc/file.n: clarify behaviour of 'file link' when the target
+	is not an absolute path.
+	* doc/filename.n: correct documentation to say that Windows Tcl 
+	does handle '~user', for recent Windows releases, and clarified
+	distinction between MacOS 'classic' and MacOS X.
+	* doc/glob.n: clarification of glob's behaviour when returning
+	filenames starting with a '~'.
+
+	* tests/fileSystem.test:
+	* tests/fileName.test: new tests added for the normalization
+	problem above and other recentlt reported issues.
+
+	* win/tclWinFile.c: corrected unclear comments
+
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: allow creation of relative links
+	[Bug 833713]
+
+2003-12-11  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinSock.c (SocketThreadExitHandler) : added a
+	TerminateThread fallback just in case the socket handler thread
+	is really in a paused state.  This can happen when Tcl is being
+	unloaded by the OS from an exception handler.  See MSDN docs on
+	DllMain, it states this behavior.
+
+2003-12-09  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* unix/configure:
+	* unix/tcl.m4: updated OpenBSD build configuration based on
+	[Patch #775246] (cassoff)
+
+2003-12-09  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:	#ifdef'd out declarations of errno which
+	* tools/man2tcl.c:	are known to cause problems with recent
+				glibc. [Bug 852369]
+
+2003-12-09  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* win/tclWinFile.c: fix to NT file permissions code [Bug 855923]
+	* tests/winFile.test: added tests for NT file permissions - patch
+	and test scripts supplied by Benny.
+
+	* tests/winFCmd.test: fixed one test for when not running in C:/
+
+2003-12-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclBinary.c (DeleteScanNumberCache, ScanNumber): Made
+	the numeric scan-value cache have proper references to the objects
+	within it so strange patterns of writes won't cause references to
+	freed objects. Thanks to Paul Obermeir for the report.  [Bug 851747]
+
+2003-12-01  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* doc/lset.n: fix typo [Bug 852224]
+
+2003-11-24  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclParse.c:	Corrected faulty check for trailing white
+	space in {expand} parsing.  Thanks Andreas Leitgeb.  [Bug 848262].
+	* tests/parse.test: 	New tests for the bug.
+
+2003-11-24  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>

+	added.
+
+2003-11-21  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/winFCmd.test (winFCmd-16.10,11): Merged new tests from
+	core-8-4-branch.
+
+2003-11-20  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: fix flag bit collision between
+	LOOKUP_FOR_UPVAR and TCL_PARSE_PART1 (deprecated) [Bug 835020] 
+
+2003-11-19  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/compile.test (compile-16.22.0):	Improved test for the
+	recent fix for Bug 845412.
+
+2003-11-19  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): Added a guard for the
+	expansion code so that long non-expanding commands don't get
+	expansion infrastructure inserted in them, especially when that
+	infrastructure isn't initialised.  [Bug 845412]
+
+2003-11-18  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* contrib/djgpp/Makefile:		Changes from Victor Wagner
+	* contrib/djgpp/langinfo.c (new):	<vitus@45.free.net> for better
+	* contrib/djgpp/langinfo.h (new):	DJGPP support.
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:			.
+	* unix/tclUnixChan.c:			.
+	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c:			.
+
+2003-11-17  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/reg.test: Added tests for [Bugs 230589, 504785, 505048, 840258]
+	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 pre-collected single-linked
+	list of states to be splitted: many items were added to the list, but 
+	only several of them are accessible from the list beginning, 
+	since the "tmp" member of struct state (which is used here to
+	hold a pointer to the next list item) gets overwritten, which 
+	results in a "looped" chain. As a result, not all of states are
+	splitted, and one state is splitted two times, causing incorrect
+	"no-progress" flag values.
+
+2003-11-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Make sure that
+	Tcl_AsyncInvoke is called regularly when processing bytecodes.
+	* generic/tclTest.c (AsyncThreadProc, TestasyncCmd): Extended
+	testing harness to send an asynchronous marking without relying on
+	UNIX signals.
+	* tests/async.test (async-4.*): Tests to check that async events
+	are handled by the bytecode core. [Bug 746722]
+
+2003-11-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* 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() which has the same conditions on its
+	argument. Stops VC++5.2 warning.  [Bug 842511]
+
+2003-11-14  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_DeleteHashTable,Tcl_HashStats,RebuildTable): 
+	* generic/tclTest.c (TestHashSystemHashCmd): TIP#138 implementation, 
+	* tests/misc.test:	plus a new chunk of stuff to test the hash
+				functions more thoroughly in the test
+				suite. [Patch 731356, modified] 
+
+	* doc/Tcl.n: Updated Tcl version number and changebars.
+
+2003-11-14  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* doc/ParseCmd.3:	Implementation of TIP 157.  Adds recognition
+	* doc/Tcl.n:		of the new leading {expand} syntax on words.
+	* generic/tcl.h:	Parses such words as the new Tcl_Token type
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:	TCL_TOKEN_EXPAND_WORD.  Updated Tcl_EvalEx
+	* generic/tclCompile.c: and the bytecode compiler/execution engine
+	* generic/tclCompile.h:	to recognize the new token type.  New opcodes
+	* generic/tclExecute.c:	INST_LIST_VERIFY and INST_INVOKE_EXP and a new
+	* generic/tclParse.c:	operand type OPERAND_ULIST1 are defined.  Docs
+	* generic/tclTest.c:	and tests are included.
+	* tests/basic.test:
+	* tests/compile.test:
+	* tests/parse.test:
+
+	* library/auto.tcl:	Replaced several [eval]s used to perform
+	* library/package.tcl:	argument expansion with the new syntax.
+	* library/safe.tcl:	In the test files lindex.test and lset.test,
+	* tests/cmdInfo.test:	replaced use of [eval] to force direct
+	* tests/encoding.test:	string evaluation with use of [testevalex]
+	* tests/execute.test:	which more directly and robustly serves the
+	* tests/fCmd.test:	same purpose.
+	* tests/http.test:
+	* tests/init.test:
+	* tests/interp.test:
+	* tests/io.test:
+	* tests/ioUtil.test:
+	* tests/iogt.test:
+	* tests/lindex.test:
+	* tests/lset.test:
+	* tests/namespace-old.test:
+	* tests/namespace.test:
+	* tests/pkg.test:
+	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test:
+	* tests/proc.test:
+	* tests/reg.test:
+	* tests/trace.test:
+	* tests/upvar.test:
+	* tests/winConsole.test:
+	* tests/winFCmd.test:
+
+2003-11-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* tests/cmdMZ.test (cmdMZ-1.4): change to nonPortable as more
+	systems are using permissions caching, and this isn't really a Tcl
+	controlled issue.
+
+2003-11-11  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* unix/configure:
+	* unix/tcl.m4: improve AIX --enable-64bit handling
+	remove -D__NO_STRING_INLINES -D__NO_MATH_INLINES from
+	CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE on Linux.  Make default opt -O2 (was -O).
+
+2003-11-11  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* contrib/djgpp/Makefile:  Suggested changes from vitus@45.free.net
+	(Victor Wagner)
+
+	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:  added socklen_t typedef for DJGPP
+
+2003-11-10  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):
+	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):	Fix for [Bug 832657]
+	that should not run afoul of startup constraints.
+
+	* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:	Added safeguards so that registry
+	* library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl:	and dde packages are not offered
+	* win/tclWinDde.c:	on non-Windows platforms.  Bumped to
+	* win/tclWinReg.c:	registry 1.1.3 and dde 1.3.
+	* win/Makefile.in:
+	* win/configure.in:
+	* win/makefile.bc:

+
+	* win/configure:	autoconf (2.57)
+
+2003-11-10  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+	* tests/cmdIL.test: Stopped cmdIL-5.5 from stomping over the test
+	command, and updated the tests to use some tcltest2 features in
+	relation to cleanup. [Bug 838384]
+
+2003-11-10  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
+	* tests/fCmd.test: fix to misleading error message in 'file link'

+
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to compiler warning/error with
+	some compilers [Bug 835918]
+
+2003-11-07  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* macosx/Makefile: optimized builds define NDEBUG to turn off
+	ThreadAlloc range checking.
+
+2003-11-05  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.10):  New test to expose [Bug 832657]
+	failure of TclpInitLibraryPath() to properly handle .. in the path
+	of the executable.
+
+2003-11-04  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* macosx/Makefile: added 'test' target.
+
+2003-11-03  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c
+	* generic/tclInt.h: added comments and re-arranged code to
+	clarify distinction between Tcl_LoadHandle, ClientData for
+	'load'ed code, and point out limitations of the design 
+	introduced with Tcl 8.4.
+
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: fix to memory leak
+
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: removed warning on Windows.
+
+2003-11-01  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrepeatObjCmd): Check for sensible list
+	lengths and allow for soft failure of the memory subsystem in the
+	[lconcat] command [Bug 829027].  Uses direct list creation to
+	avoid extra copies when working near the limit of available
+	memory.  Also reorganized to encourage optimizing compilers to
+	optimize heavily.
+	* generic/tclListObj.c (TclNewListObjDirect): New list constructor
+	that does not copy the array of objects. Useful for creating
+	potentially very large lists or where you are about to throw away
+	the array argument which is being used in its entirety.
+
+2003-10-28  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (NEXT_INST macros): replaced macro variable
+	"result" by "resultHandling" to avoid confusion.
+
+2003-10-23  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel): Applied [Patch 813606]
+	  fixing [Bug 813087]. Detection of sockets was off for Mac OS X
+	  which implements pipes as local sockets. The new code ensures
+	  that only IP sockets are detected as such.
+
+	* win/tclWinSock.c (TcpWatchProc): Watch for FD_CLOSE too when
+	  asked for writable events by the generic layer.
+	  (SocketEventProc): Generate a writable event too when a close is
+	  detected.
+
+	  Together the changes fix [Bug 599468].
+
+2003-10-23  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/resource.test:
+	* mac/tclMacResource.c: fix to resource freeing problem in 'resource'
+	command reported by Bernard Desgraupes.
+
+	* doc/FileSystem.3: updated documentation for 'glob' fix on 2003-10-13
+	below
+
+2003-10-22  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FileObjCmd): Changed FILE_ prefix to FCMD_
+	to stop symbol/#def clashes on Cygwin/Mingw32 on NT. [Bug 822528]
+
+2003-10-21   Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: fixed incorrect html generated for
+	.IP/.TP lists, now use <DL><DT>...<DD>...<P><DT>...<DD>...</DL>
+	instead of illegal  <DL><P><DT>...<DD>...<P><DT>...<DD>...</DL>.
+	Added skipping of directives directly after .TP to avoid them
+	being used as item descriptions, e.g. .TP\n.VS in clock.n.
+
+2003-10-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@pliers.activestate.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Applied the patch coming
+	  with [Bug 805605] to the code, fixing the incorrect use of
+	  ispace noted by Ronald Dauster <ronaldd@users.sourceforge.net>.
+
+2003-10-20  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* doc/msgcat.n:
+	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl (mclocale,mcload):
+	* tools/tcl.wse.in:
+	* unix/Makefile.in:     Implementation of TIP#156
+	* win/makefile.bc:      adding a "root locale" to
+	* win/Makefile.in:      the 'msgcat' package. Advanced
+	* win/Makefile.vc:      msgcat version number to 1.4.
+
+2003-10-15  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortInfo,etc): Reorganized so that SortInfo
+	carries an array of integer indices instead of a Tcl list.  This
+	nips shimmering problems in the bud and simplifies SelectObjFromSublist
+	at the cost of making setup slightly more complex. [Bug 823768]
+
+2003-10-14  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+	* win/tclAppInit.c (sigHandler): Punt gracefully if exitToken
+	has already been destroyed.
+
+2003-10-14  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
+	* tests/regexp.test: fix to [Bug 823524] in regsub; added three

+2003-10-14  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c (TclAppendObjToErrorInfo):	New internal routine
+	that appends a Tcl_Obj to the errorInfo, saving the caller the trouble
+	of extracting the string rep.
+
+	* 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
+	several places throughout the Tcl source code, mostly for error and
+	stack messages.  Clean fix for [Bug 760872].

+
+	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.

+	* 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

+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.
+

+
+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 compatability for those extensions which are already clients
+	of the namespace code.

+
+	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:	Added escape so that non-Windows

+
+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

+	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 Tcl
+	* tests/basic.test:	Bug 489537, Tcl's longstanding failure to
+	* tests/dict.test:	properly quote any leading '#' character
+	* tests/dstring.test:	when generating the string rep of a list
+	* tests/list.test:	so that the comment-power of that character
+	* tests/parse.test:	is hidden from any [eval], in order to 
+	* tests/util.test:	satisfy the 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
+	* doc/CrtTrace.3:      	by using "null" everywhere to refer to
+	* doc/Encoding.3:      	the character '\0', and using "NULL"
+	* doc/Eval.3:          	everywhere to refer to the value of a
+	* doc/GetIndex.3:      	pointer that points to nowhere.
+	* doc/Hash.3:          	Also dropped references to ASCII that
+	* doc/LinkVar.3:       	are no longer true, and standardized on
+	* doc/Macintosh.3:     	the hyphenated spelling of "null-terminated".
+	* 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
+	* generic/regcustom.h: make 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]

+	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetModeFromPermString):	[Bug 771949]
+	Silence compiler warnings about unreached lines.
+
+	* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (ProcessFlags):	Corrected broken call

+
+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>

+
+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 compatability 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

+
+2003-06-25  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclTrace.c: New file, factoring out of virtually all the
+	various trace-related things from tclBasic.c and tclCmdMZ.c with
+	the goal of making this a separate maintenance area.
+
+2003-06-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* unix/configure: Regen.
+	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Add -ieee when

+2003-06-24  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* doc/encoding.n: Corrected the docs to say that [source] uses the
+	system encoding, which it always did anyway (since 8.1) [Bug 742100]
+
+2003-06-24  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_HashStats): Prevented occurrence of

+
+2003-06-24  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+	* doc/dde.n:                 Committed TIP #135 which changes the
+	* win/tclWinDde.c:           -exact option to -force. Also cleaned

+	* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:  Incremented version to 1.2.5
+
+	* doc/dde.n:                 Committed TIP #120 which provides the

+
+	* win/tclWinFile.c:

+
+2003-06-10  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:
+	* generic/tclExecute.c: let TclExecuteObjvInternal call

+	in the windows precision timer calibration logic.
+
+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

+	[Tk Bug #739833]
+
+2003-05-22  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* 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.

+
+	* 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

+
+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.
+
+	* macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c (new): Mac OS X specific implementation of
+	new file attributes and of attribute & resource fork copying.
+
+	* mac/tclMacFCmd.c: added implementation of -rsrclength attribute &
+	fixes to other attributes for consistency with OSX implementation.
+
+	* mac/tclMacResource.c: fixes to OSType handling.
+
+	* doc/file.n: documentation of [file attributes] changes.
+
+	* unix/configure.in: check for APIs needed by new file attributes.
+
+	* unix/Makefile.in:
+	* unix/tcl.m4: added new platform specifc tclMacOSXFCmd.c source.
+
+	* unix/configure:
+	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
+	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: regen.
+
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl: fixes to completely broken code trying to
+	prevent overlap of "aqua", "macosx", "x11" and "unix" stub entries.
+
+	* tests/unixFCmd.test: added tests of -readonly attribute.
+
+	* 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

+	[Bug 736421]
+
+2003-05-13  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

+
+2003-05-13  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>
+
+	* generic/tcl.decls:  Changed Tcl_JoinThread parameter name from

+
+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

+	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
+	(ResolvedCmdName *) as the internal rep.  [Bug 726018].
+
+	* doc/Eval.3:  Corrected prototype for Tcl_GlobalEvalObj [Bug 727622].
+
+2003-05-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+

+
+2003-05-10  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialCloseProc): correct mem leak on
+	closing a Windows serial port [Bug #718002] (schroedter)
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): prevent string repeat

+
+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

+
+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

+
+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-initi 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]
+	* doc/fconfigure.n:	to [open] as it is up to the creator of a
+				channel to describe the channel's special
+				config options. [Bug 679010] 
+
+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 this was not documented. [Bug 709720]
+
+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. (Fixes [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): 
+	* tests/clock.test: Implementation of TIP #124. Also renumbered
+	test 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 #710361)
+
+2003-04-10  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* doc/binary.n: Fixed typo in [binary format w] desc. [Bug 718543]
+
+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
+	arguments interpolated in error messages. [Bug 711371]
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceExecutionProc):  Added missing
+	Tcl_DiscardResult() call to avoid memory leak.
+
+2003-04-07  Donal K. Fellows  <zzcgudf@ernie.mvc.mcc.ac.uk>
+
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c (Tcl_DictObjCmd): Stopped compilers from
+	moaning about switch fall-through.  [Bug 716327]
+	(DictFilterCmd): Yet more warning killing, this time reported by
+	Miguel Sofer by private chat.
+
+2003-04-07  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+	* tests/dict.test (dict-2.6): 
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c (Tcl_NewDictObj, Tcl_DbNewDictObj): Oops!
+	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

+	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

+
+	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek, Tcl_OutputBuffered):
+	If there is data buffered in the statePtr->curOutPtr

+	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

+	was originally created in CVS revision 1.35. The
+	setting of the BUFFER_READY flag should not have

+2003-03-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption):
+	Invoke the Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize method

+	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

+
+	* win/configure:
+	* win/configure.in: check for 'g' for debug build type, not 'd'.

+
+2003-02-19  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c: restored Tcl_SetObjLength() side-effect
+	of always invalidating unicode rep (if the obj has a string rep).
+	Added hasUnicode flag to String struct, allows decoupling of
+	validity of unicode rep from buffer size allocated to it (improves 
+	memory allocation efficiency). [Bugs #686782, #671138, #635200]
+
+	* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj:
+	* macosx/Makefile: reworked embedded build to no longer require

+	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 frameworks because tcl headers appear changed).
+
+	* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-1.8): fix failure when system encoding

+	* tests/winTime.test: Revised winTime-2.1 - it had a tolerance

+2003-02-06  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): When an

+	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 gcc 3.
+
+2003-01-26  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* win/configure: Regen.
+	* win/configure.in: Add test that checks to
+	see if the compiler can cast to a union type.
+	* win/tclWinTime.c: Squelch compiler warning
+	about union initializer by casting to union
+	type when compiling with gcc.
+
+2003-01-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel):
+	Invoke TclpCutFileChannel and TclpSpliceFileChannel.
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutFileChannel
+	and TclpSpliceFileChannel.
+	* 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 file channels. This avoids
+	an invalid memory ref that was showing up in the
+	thread extension.
+
+2003-01-25  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* 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>
+	* doc/namespace.n (namespace inscope): Clarified documentation
+	[SF 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>
+
+	* win/tclWinDde.c (DdeServerProc): Deallocate
+	the Tcl_Obj returned by ExecuteRemoteObject
+	if it was not saved in a connection object.
+
+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. Fixes [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>
+
+	* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialOutputProc): add casts for
+	bytesWritten to allow strict compilation (no warnings).
+
+	* tests/winDde.test:
+	* win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Prevent crash when empty
+	service name is passed to 'dde eval' and goto errorNoResult in
+	request and poke error cases to free up any allocated data.
+
+2003-01-16  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch
+	compiler warnings from SEH ASM code.
+	* win/tclWinChan.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch
+	compiler warnings from SEH ASM code.
+	* win/tclWinDde.c: Add casts to avoid compiler
+	warnings. Pass pointer to DWORD instead of int
+	to avoid compiler warnings.
+	* win/tclWinFCmd.c (squelch_warnings): Add casts
+	and fixup decls to avoid compiler warnings.
+	Squelch compiler warnings from SEH ASM code.
+	* win/tclWinFile.c: Add casts and fixup decls
+	to avoid compiler warnings. Remove unused variable.
+	* win/tclWinNotify.c: Declare as DWORD instead
+	of int to avoid compiler warning.
+	* win/tclWinReg.c: Add casts to avoid compiler
+	warning. Fix assignment in if expression bug.
+	* win/tclWinSerial.c: Add casts to avoid compiler
+	warnings. Remove unused variable.
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: Add casts and fixup decls
+	to avoid compiler warnings.
+
+2003-01-14  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): corrected typo that
+	incorrectly conditionally defined savedTZEnv and savedTimeZone.
+
+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 the TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE
+	and TCL_LL_MODIFIER.
+	* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): Don't
+	define savedTimeZone and 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/README: Update msys + mingw URL, the
+	new release includes the released 1.0.8
+	version of msys which includes a number
+	of bug fixes.
+
+2003-01-12  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* win/configure: Regen.
+	* win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Pull in
+	addition of shell32.lib to LIBS_GUI that
+	was added to the Tk tcl.m4 but never made
+	it back into 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: Regen.
+	* 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.
+
+2003-01-10  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: 
+	* win/tclWinInt.h:
+	* win/tclWinInit.c: fix to new WinTcl crash on exit with vfs,
+	introduced on 2002-12-06.  Encodings must be cleaned up after
+	the filesystem.
+
+	* win/makefile.vc: fix to minor VC++ 5.2 syntax problem
+
+2003-01-09  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd):  Corrected off-by-one
+	problem with recent commit.  [Bug 633204]
+
+2003-01-09  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclFileName.c: remove unused variable 'macSpecialCase'
+	[Bug 664749]
+
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
+	* generic/tclInt.h:
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
+	* mac/tclMacFile.c:
+	* win/tclWinFile.c:
+	* win/tclWinInt.h:
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: 
+	* tests/cmdAH.test: fix to non-ascii chars in paths when
+	setting mtime and atime through 'file (a|m)time $path $time'
+	[Bug 634151]
+
+2003-01-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExprFloatError):  Use the IS_NAN macro
+	for greater clarity of code.
+
+2003-01-07  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* 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.
