- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Revised TclFindElement() interface. The
- * generic/tclDictObj.c: final argument had been bracePtr, the address
- * generic/tclListObj.c: of a 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.

- * 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).
+ * unix/tcl.m4, unix/configure: Backported [Bug 1095909], removing
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: any use of readdir_r as it is not

- * tests/iocmd.test (iocmd-15.{12,13}): Removed.
+2005-07-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
- * 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.
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c: New "encoding" Tcl_ObjType (not registered)
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c: that permits longer lifetimes of the
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Tcl_Encoding values kept as intreps of
+ Tcl_Obj's. Reduces the need for repeated reading of encoding

- * 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.
+2005-07-01 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
- * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd): Added checking of -size
- * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-15.{13,14}): value to reject negative
- values, and values overflowing 32-bit signed. [Bug 1557855]. Basic
- patch by Alexandre Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>, with
- modifications from me to separate overflow from true negative
- value. Extended testsuite.

-2008-04-09 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+ * library/auto.tcl: Reverted to Revision 1.12.2.3 (Tcl 8.4.9).
+ Restores the (buggy) behavior of [auto_reset] that fails to clear
+ away auto-loaded commands from non-global namespaces. Fixing this
+ bug exposed an unknown number of buggy files out there (including at
+ least portions of the Tk script library) that cannot tolerate double
+ [source]-ing. The burden of fixing these exposed bugs will not be
+ forced on package/extension/application authors until Tcl 8.5.

+ * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize):
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclPreserve.c (TclFinalizePreserve): Changed the
+ finalization logic so that Tcl_Preserve finalizes after exit
+ handlers run; a lot of code called from Tk's exit handlers
+ presumes tha Tcl_Preserve will still work even from an exit
+ handler. Also, made the assertion check that no exit handlers
+ are created in Tcl_Finalize conditional on TCL_MEM_DEBUG to
+ avoid spurious panics in the "stable" release.

- * tests/format.test: Add a test for '% d' and '%+d'.
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: More rewriting of __asm__ blocks that

- * 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).
-
- * 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.
+ * unix/Makefile.in (install-private-headers): rewrite tclPort.h when
+ installing private headers to remove ../unix relative #include path to

- * 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'.
+ * 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.

- message.
+2005-06-22 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
- * 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.

- <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> for report and patch.
+ * tests/winDde.test: Added some waits to the dde server script to

- * generic/tclInt.h (TclIsNaN):
- * unix/configure.in: Added code to the configurator to check for

- is found. This change avoids bugs where
- the test of ((d) != (d)) is optimized away
- by an overaggressive compiler. [Bug 1783544]

- locate isnan() after the above change.
+2005-06-18 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
- * unix/configure: autoconf-2.61
+ * 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.
- * tests/mathop.test (mathop-25.9, mathop-25.14): Modified tests
- to deal with (slightly buggy) math libraries in which pow()
- returns an incorrectly rounded result. [Bug 1808174]
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): add -headerpad_max_install_names to LDFLAGS to

+2005-04-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
- * 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.

+ * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-6.2): remove -blocking 1 as this one
+ can truly block.
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c: Revised direct evaluation implementation of
- [expr] so that [expr $e] caches compiled bytecodes for the expression
- as the intrep of $e.
+2005-04-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
- * tests/execute.test (execute-6.*): More tests checking that
- script bytecode is invalidated in the right situations.
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: The pipe channel driver now respects the -blocking
+ option when closing. The windows pipe driver now has the same behavior
+ as the UNIX side. This change 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]
-2008-03-07 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
- * win/configure.in: Add AC_HEADER_STDC to support msys/win64.

+ <rossc@cisco.com> where [read stdin 1] was grabbing 10 bytes followed
+ by starting a child process that was intended to continue reading from

- 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().
+ Set of changes correcting huge memory waste (not a leak) when a thread
+ exits. This has been introduced in 8.4.7 within an attempt to

- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo): Revised the
- refcount management of Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo to become that of a

+ * generic/tclStubInit.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/tclClock.c: Changed a buggy 'GMT' timezone specification to
+ the correct 'GMT0'. [Bug 922848]
- * generic/tclResult.c (ResetObjResult): new shortcut.
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Moved TclpGmtime and TclpLocaltime to

+
+ * 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 940278] Removed a buggy test of the Daylight Saving Time
+ information in 'gettimeofday' in favor of applying 'localtime' to a

+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Append a space when the path

+2004-05-05 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.
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c: Added FreeEncoding(systemEncoding) in
+ TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem because its ref count was incremented in
+ TclInitEncodingSubsystem.
+
+ * 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 included,
+ too. [Patch 858493]
+
+ Also added DisableThreadLibraryCalls() for the DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH
+ case. We're not interested in knowing about DLL_THREAD_ATTACH, so

+ * win/tclWinSock.c:
+ (SocketThreadExitHandler): Don't call TerminateThread when

+ 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.
+ (SocketEventProc): connect errors should fire both the readable and
+ writable handlers because this is how it works on UNIX. [Bug 794839]

+2004-05-04 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
- * 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.
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSChdir): Work-around crash condition

-2007-11-05 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+ * tests/fileName.test (filename-12.9): use C:/ instead of the first
+ item in file volumes - that's usually A:/, which for most will have
+ nothing in it.
- * 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.

+ * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl ([mcset], [ConvertLocale], [Init]):
+ Corrected [mcset] to be able to successfully set a translation to

- * 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
- mapping functions.

-
- *** 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.

-2007-07-12 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+ Merged various bug fixes from current cvs head:
- * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Factored out, corrected, and commented
- common code for reporting syntax errors in LEAF elements.
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: better fix to test suite problem if /home is a
+ symlink [Bug 703264]
-2007-07-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+ * 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: Some re-arrangement of code to bring it closer
+ to CVS HEAD. No functional changes.
- * 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]

+ (Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath): Update string rep of path objects
+ before freeing the internal object. (darley)
- * generic/tclVar.c: Update callers of TclCallVarTraces to not pass
- in the TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag. Also apply filters so that public
- routines only pass documented flag values down to lower level routines
+ * tests/fileSystem.test: added test 8.3
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath):
+ (UpdateStringOfFsPath): handle the cwdLen == 0 case

- TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag is now done entirely within the
- TclCallVarTraces routine, the only place it can be done right.

+ * win/tclWinPort.h:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: This patch does two things:
- * generic/tclExecute.c: More ckalloc -> ckrealloc conversions.
- * generic/tclLiteral.c:
- * generic/tclNamesp.c:
- * generic/tclParse.c:
- * generic/tclPreserve.c:
- * generic/tclStringObj.c:
- * generic/tclUtil.c:
+ 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]
-2007-03-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+ 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.

+ 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

+ *** 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

- * win/makefile.vc: package. Added the platform package.
- * win/makefile.bc:
* 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 he
+ 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

- * 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.

- require mp_int calculations. Also corrected type that missed optimized
- handling of the tclBooleanType by the TclGetBooleanFromObj macro.

- * unix/tclUnixSock.c: Added no-op TclpFinalizeSockets().
+ * 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.
- * 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.
+ Added IA64 B-stepping errata switch when the compiler supports it.
-2006-03-10 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
+ Added profiling to $(lflags) when requested and also removed the
+ explict -entry option as the default works fine as is.
- * win/tclWinFile.c: previous patch breaks tests, so removed.
+ 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.

+ * 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
+ cacheing.
+
+ 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.)

+ * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Trivial fix for [Bug 517503], a
+ memory leak reported by Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>.

+ leak one empty object.

+ 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.

+ * 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.

+ 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.

+ ckfree, ckrealloc, attemptckalloc, and attemptckrealloc macros, and to
+ accurately describe when and how they are used. [Bug 497459]
+
+ * generic/tclThreadJoin.c (TclRememberJoinableThread,TclJoinThread):
+ Replaced Tcl_Alloc and Tcl_Free calls with ckalloc and ckfree so that
+ memory debugging is supported.

- * generic/tclTrace.c: Stop exporting the guts of the trace command;
- nothing outside this file needs to see it. [Bug 971336]
+ * tests/basic.test (basic-39.4): Greatly simplified test while still
+ leaving it so that it crashes when run without the fix to the
+ [foreach] implementation.
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd): Stopped [Bug 494348] from
+ 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
+ derefs/assigns per list per iteration, with no change in the number of
+ tests) and if something odd *is* going on, the code is now far more
+ robust.

+ * tests/basic.test (basic-39.4): Reproducable script from [Bug 494348]
- * unix/tcl.m4 (TCL_CONFIG_SYSTEM): Factor out the code to determine
- the operating system version number, as it was replicated in several
- places.

+ * tests/util.test (Wrapper_Tcl_StringMatch,util-5.*): Rewrote so the
+ test is performed with the right internal function since [string
+ match] no longer uses Tcl_StringCaseMatch internally.
- * 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.
+ * tests/string.test (string-11.51):
+ * generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch):
+ * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringCaseMatch): Fault with matching
+ case-insensitive non-ASCII patterns containing upper case characters.
