Sorry no change log.
On January 27, ragge bumped the version with commit message:
"Pcc now supports all C99 language constructs (I hope), so wrap to 0.9.9."
This also includes the new manpages. (These are a work in progress --
please send me your improvements.)
For pkgsrc:
- changed download sites
- changed homepage
- INSTALLATION_DIRS not needed.
outsmart us and call the tool by name in some parts of the build.
eg just "nbsed" instead of "/usr/pkg/bin/nbsed". This can only have
worked before as long as ${PREFIX}/bin was in the user's path.
Fix this by TOOLS_ALIASES.sed+=${TOOLS_SED:T} so that an "nbsed"
is available in the PATH.
Mozilla's SpiderMonkey. I wish I knew about this sooner! I've tried
this out with elinks, and the javsascript support seems more reliable.
Thanks, OSSP! I vote for killing spidermonkey once we verify all packages
using it build with this.
Local modifications:
--Only build fdlibm into libjs if necessary. This follows
in the spirit of lang/spidermonkey, though someone with more
knowledge of this probably will want to change the list of
platforms in the Makefile.
--Following the aforementioned change, link the library against
-lm (and list -lm in js-config, etc.) only if required.
--Use pkgsrc-provided installation tools instead of shtool.
--Apply fix for __VA_COPY_USE_CPP.
Blurb (DESCR):
OSSP js is a stand-alone distribution of the JavaScript (JS)
programming language reference implementation from Mozilla -- aka
"JSRef" or "SpiderMonkey". This distribution provides a smart,
stand-alone and portable distribution of Mozilla JavaScript through a
GNU autotools-based build environment. Additionally,
the C API in "libjs" contains both the JavaScript engine and the
required Sun math library ("fdlibm") and with all internal symbols
carefully protected under the "js" namespace. Finally, a js-config(1)
utility and a pkg-config(1) specification is provided to allow
applications to easily build with the JavaScript C API.
OSSP js was created because for OSSP and similar pedantic C coding
projects a smart, stand-alone, portable, clean, powerful and
robust scripting language engine is required. JavaScript is a
great programming language and Mozilla JavaScript "SpiderMonkey"
definitely is an acceptable clean, powerful and robust implementation.
Unfortunately there is just a stand-alone distribution released from
time to time by Mozilla and it is far away from really being smart,
stand-alone and portable. OSSP js combines the best from two worlds:
the 1:1 repackaged JavaScript code base from Mozilla with the GNU
autotools-based build environment as always used by OSSP. Additionally,
this package provides stdio-based file object support and does not depend
upon the Mozilla NSPR library.
* Bug fixes
* New features:
- made configure script work on PlayStation 3
- ARM port: brought up-to-date for Debian 4.0 (Etch)
- many other small changes and bugfixes in camlp4, ocamlbuild, labltk,
emacs files
Please see the release notes online[1] for the list of fixed bugs.
Also, the license was wrong. There are several differences in all clauses
between the 1.3 and 6 licenses, so add the proper license files.

Based on patches by Brian de Alwis in PR pkg/37522.
Don't include aio.h in patch-ak, it is not needed.
Don't require bash for npsqueakrun yet. There is more work to do to
make the nsqueak plugin work.
Changes since 3.6-3:
*2006-10-10* 3.9-8 released. <release/RELEASE_NOTES_3.9-8> ALSA support
for Linux. Problems with iconv() fixed on Solaris.
*2006-04-24* 3.9-7 released. <release/RELEASE_NOTES_3.9-7>
Modifications to the mechanism the VM uses to relinquish the processor
for very short intervals to avoid high CPU loads while idling.
UUIDPlugin is now external to prevent the VM failing to run when libuuid
is missing or uncooperative. AioPlugin is bundled. Aliases are resolved
in path names on OS X.
*2006-04-19* 3.9-4 released. <release/RELEASE_NOTES_3.9-4> KeyUp events
are no longer reported for autorepeats under X11. Improvements to socket
latency. Security plugin now obeys SQUEAK_USERDIR if set. OSProcess and
XDisplayControl plugins updated from current distributions and bundled.
The 3.9 Unix VMs are now fully compatible with Croquet and will run both
Squeak and Croquet images. Additional plugins required for Croquet are
now supported and bundled in both source and binary releases:
CroquetPlugin, FloatMathPlugin and UUIDPlugin.
*2004-04-06* 3.7-7 released. <release/RELEASE_NOTES_3.7-7>
Documentation updated to reflect recent organisational changes. 'gnuify'
no longer requires gawk. Obscure bug in socket option lookup fixed.
NPSqueak changes from Bert (SQUEAK_USERDIR environment variable
overrides 'My Squeak', plus several bug fixes). Event code updated for
recent changes to event structures. README, manual page, and how-to
documentation updated and revised. Instructions for SVN checkout added.
'Easy build' route for checked-out SVN repository sources added. Browser
plugin now supports imageName and failureUrl attributes within <embed
...> tag. Preliminary support for XDND-based drag-and-drop (Gnome, KDE,
etc.) in the X11 display driver. New flag '-glxdebug <n>' prints OpenGL
diagnostics in X11 display driver. Interpreter should no longer crash
when loading image segments into memory above the 2GB boundary (thanks
to Ned Konz). Additional checks for bad external data in SocketPlugin.
Less inappropriate noise when probing for external plugins. Problems
preventing more than one external plugin from loading in Mac OS X fixed.

As camlp5 is required with ocaml 3.10, bring it as a dependency anyway,
instead of requiring ocaml 3.10
Changes include:
* Installation
- Support for compilation with ocaml 3.10 and (transitional) camlp5.
- Many bugs have been fixed (cf coq-bugs web page)
- All known failures of ROmega have been fixed. It should now be a
faithful and quicker replacement for Omega (except when nat parts
are involved). ROmega and Omega now handle <->.
- Better computational behavior of some constants (eq_nat_dec and
le_lt_dec more efficient, Z_lt_le_dec and Positive_as_OT.compare
transparent) [exceptionally source of incompatibilities].
- Loading FSets/FMap used to open unwanted scopes of integer datatypes
(see bug #1347). These scopes may need to be manually opened now.
Camlp5 is a preprocessor and pretty-printer for OCaml programs. It also
provides parsing and printing tools.
As a preprocessor, it allows to:
- extend the syntax of OCaml,
- redefine the whole syntax of the language.
As a pretty printer, it allows to:
- display OCaml programs in an elegant way,
- convert from one syntax to another,
- check the results of syntax extensions.
Camlp5 also provides some parsing and pretty printing tools:
- extensible grammars
- extensible printers
- stream parsers and lexers
- pretty print module
It works as a shell command and can also be used in the OCaml toplevel.

to avoid jemalloc. The simple allocator used by clisp in the NetBSD
case appears to use some assumptions, like allocations below sbrk(), which
don't hold with jemalloc. We might switch to another allocator later,
but as the code looks this needs more work and testing.
From Aleksej Saushev per PR pkg/37381; the patch is attributed to
Arnaud Degroote.
Should also fix PR pkg/37304 from Yakovetsky Vladimir.

=> 9.0 as it breaks the build. This should just be considered a temporary
work around until the actual problem can be fixed as this worked for
Darwin < 9.0.
There are no changes to perl on any other platforms.
This should address PR# 37225
A flaw was found in Perl's regular expression engine. Specially crafted
input to a regular expression can cause Perl to improperly allocate memory,
possibly resulting in arbitrary code running with the permissions of the
user running Perl.
- don't call the linker directly to build shared libraries,
use ${CC} -G
- link libsunmath statically, as it is provided by SUNWspro and
therefore not available on systems where the compiler is not
installed.
1. `gawk 'program' /non/existant/file' no longer core dumps.
2. gawk now only uses the locale's decimal point
3. `gawk -v BINMODE=1 ...' works again.
4. Internal file names like `/dev/user' now work again. (Note that these
file names are obsolete and will go away eventually.)
5. Problems with wide strings in non "C" locales have been straightened
out everywhere. (At least, we think so.)
6. Use of `ansi2knr' is no longer supported. Please use an ANSI C compiler.
7. Updated to Autoconf 2.61, Automake 1.10, and Gettext 0.16.1.
8. The getopt* and regex* files were synchronized with current GLIBC CVS.
See the ChangeLog for the versions and minor edits made.
9. There are additional --lint-old warnings.
10. Gawk now uses getaddrinfo(3) to look up names and IP addresses. This
allows the use of an IPv6 format address and paves the way for
eventual addition of `/inet6/...' and `/inet4/...' hostnames.
11. We believe gawk to now be valgrind clean. At least when run against
the test suite.
12. A number of issues dealing with the formatting and printing of very
large numbers in integer formats have been dealt with and fixed.
13. Gawk now converts "+inf", "-inf", "+nan" and "-nan" into the corresponding
magic IEEE floating point values. Only those strings (case independent)
work. With --posix, gawk calls the system strtod directly. You asked
for it, you got it, you deal with it.
14. Defining YYDEBUG enables the -D command line option.
15. Gawk should now work out of the box on Tandem NSK/OSS systems.
16. Lint messages rationalized: many more of the messages are now printed
only once, instead of every time they are encountered.
17. The strftime() function now accepts an optional third argument, which
if non-zero or non-null, indicates that the time should be formatted
as UTC instead of as local time.
18. The precedence of concatenation and `| getline' (in something like
"echo " "date" | getline stuff) has been reverted to the earlier
behavior and now once again matches Unix awk.
19. New configure time flag --disable-directories-fatal which causes
gawk to silently skip directories on the command line. This behavior
is also enabled for --traditional, since it's what Unix awk does.
20. A new option, --use-lc-numeric, forces use of the locale's decimal
point without the rest of the draconian restrictions imposed by
--posix. This softens somewhat the stance taken in item 2.
21. Everything relevant has been updated to the GPL 3.
22. Array growth should be faster now, at no cost in space.
23. Lots more tests.
24. One new translation.
25. Various bugs fixed, see the ChangeLog for details.
then automatically generate a PLIST that says "${PKGNAME} has no files".
* If PLIST_SRC and GENERATE_PLIST are not set in a package Makefile,
and no PLIST files exist, then fail during the package build with
PKG_FAIL_REASON.
* Remove "intentionally empty" PLISTs again.
Now, the easy way to say that a package installs no files is to just
add the following to the package Makefile:
PLIST_SRC= # empty
that directly manipulate empty PLISTs.
Modify plist/plist.mk so that if the PLIST files are missing and no
GENERATE_PLIST is defined, then the package fails to build.
Basically, no change since previous update except Net::HTTP default
@enable_post_connection_check was wrongly set to true. (It might
cause compatibility problem.)
removed unavailable ftp://alpha.gnu.org/budne/snobol/.
add new entry ftp://ftp.snobol4.org/snobol/old/.
(ftp://ftp.snobol4.org/snobol/ have newer version 1.1).
By using /bin/ksh (${SH}), we get the desired value of $CWD in on of the
scripts called by the programs install procedure.
Fixes installation under solaris, other platforms unaffected.
Approved by wiz@.
This is bug fix release of Ruby 1.8.6. Especially it fixes thread/eval
function problem on Mac OS X. It also contains an openssl extention's
portablity problem which was bad patch by pkgsrc.
For more detail, please refer CHANGES file.
Instead use the older tarball that does have the version as part of the
name. It has same checksum.
It is really beta but at least the file name exists tomorrow.
We will wait until developer releases a real version.
Sorry about going back in time in versioning in pkgsrc
-- hopefully nobody hit this in the past few minutes.
This fixes PR # 37014
Also take MAINTAINERship.
Update DESCR to not be first person.
Note: man pages not installed as they still need a little cleanup.
latest version of the portable C compiler.
The compiler is based on the original Portable C Compiler by S. C.
Johnson, written in the late 70's. Even though much of the compiler
has been rewritten, some of the basics still remain.
The intention is to write a C99 compiler while still keeping it small,
simple, fast and understandable. I think of it as if it shall be able
to compile and run on PDP11 (even if it may not happen in reality).
But with this in mind it becomes important to think twice about what
algorithms are used.
The compiler is conceptually structured in two parts; pass1 which is
language-dependent, does parsing, typechecking and build trees, and
pass2 which is mostly language-independent.
About 50% of the frontend code and 80% of the backend code has been
rewritten. Most stuff is written by me, with the exception of the
data-flow analysis part and the SSA conversion code which is written
by Peter A Jonsson, and the Mips port that were written as part of a
project by undergraduate students at LTU.
As discussed at great length at EuroBSDcon 2007.
- New language features
- New tools
- Faster type-checking of functor applications.
- Referencing an interface compiled with -rectypes from a module
not compiled with -rectypes is now an error.
- Revised the "fragile matching" warning.
- Print a stack backtrace on an uncaught exception.
- Stack overflow detection on MS Windows 32 bits.
- Stack overflow detection on MacOS X PPC and Intel.
- Intel/AMD 64 bits: generate position-independent code by default.
- Fixed bug involving -for-pack and missing .cmx files.
- Fixed bug causing duplication of literals.
- C/Caml interface functions take "char const *" arguments
instead of "char *" when appropriate.
- Faster string comparisons (fast case if strings are ==).
- Other

and to support the "inet6" option instead.
Remaining usage of USE_INET6 was solely for the benefit of the scripts
that generate the README.html files. Replace:
BUILD_DEFS+= USE_INET6
with
BUILD_DEFS+= IPV6_READY
and teach the README-generation tools to look for that instead.
This nukes USE_INET6 from pkgsrc proper. We leave a tiny bit of code
to continue to support USE_INET6 for pkgsrc-wip until it has been nuked
from there as well.
so that symbols of loaded modules are available for other, dependant modules;
dlopen() is native function since 10.4, so actually apparently preferable interface
now
this is necessary for PDO family of modules (pdo_* depends on symbols of PDO module),
and for XSL module (which depends on symbols of DOM module); doing it this way
allows for PDO and DOM modules to be also shared and dynamically loaded, this avoids

List of user-visible changes in GNU Smalltalk
NEWS FROM 2.3.4 TO 2.3.5
o Added more examples of continuations.
o Fixed a floating-point accuracy problem in the test suite.
o Fixed a 64-bit cleanliness problem in the GDBM bindings.
o Generational GC enabled on x86_64.
o Support for writing a block with arguments and no statements
as [ :a :b ] in addition to [ :a :b | ].
o The StreamFilter.st example, which provided lookahead, filtering,
concatenation and other kinds of manipulation for Streams, has been
promoted into the default image.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.3.3 TO 2.3.4
o Behavior>>#evaluate: and MethodDictionary>>#removeAt:ifAbsent: would
cause the method dictionary's size to double. This caused sometimes
spurious failures in floatmath.st.
o Fixed bug in LargeInteger division on systems not equipped with GMP.
o Fixed bug in socket #nextHunk implementation, which lost the first
or second byte in the input buffer.
o Fixed paths in the image when "make DESTDIR" was used.
o Fixed implementation of Dictionary>>#addAll:, and fixed Integer>>#binomial:
when the argument is 0 or self.
o Fixed various minor bugs and imprecisions in the documentation.
o Improvements to the ancillary scripts gst-load and gst-sunit. In
particular, a package can describe the classes that constitute its
testsuite, and gst-sunit allows to quickly run the testsuite for a
package.
o Improvements to the test suite. Several of the modules included with
GNU Smalltalk are tested. The testsuite is now written using Autotest.
o Some libffi files (for IA64 and PA) were missing from the distribution.
o Upgraded libsigsegv, for improved Mac OS X on Intel support
o zlib bindings provided in package ZLib.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.3.2 TO 2.3.3
o Introduced the --with-imagedir configure option to specify the directory
used for the image.
o The manual was not properly generated in version 2.3.2.
o Removed text relocations from the virtual machine's shared library.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.3.1 TO 2.3.2
o #copyFrom:to: is uniformly 0-based for all Streams (unlike in Collections),
because a Stream has 0-based #position and #position: methods.
o Fixed many floating point rounding bugs in LargeIntegers and Fractions,
thanks to Nicolas Cellier.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.3 TO 2.3.1
o configure does not lock up when the system emacs is XEmacs and does not
include both the comint package and the package's source code.
o Fixed a garbage collection bug that typically occurred when installing
GNU Smalltalk, or when launching the installed image.
o gst-package honors the INSTALL command found by configure.
o gst-config does not "forget" to prefix the library directories with -L.
o Segmentation violations on large integer operations (on 64-bit hosts)
were fixed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.2 TO 2.3
IMPORTANT: GNU Smalltalk now adds an explicit exception to the GNU GPL
license, allowing the programs running under the virtual machine to use
a GPL-incompatible license. This exception is used both by the
virtual machine and by the library bindings included in GNU Smalltalk.
This clears gray areas when a Smalltalk program is using functions
in the external library bindings via dynamic linking and the foreign
function call interface (C call-outs).
o C call-outs returning #void now return self rather than nil.
Performance of code heavily using C call-outs has improved.
o FileStreams can now use pwrite for more efficient operation on files
opened for read/write, and will do many less gratuitous lseek
operations. pread will also be used by FileStream>>#copyFrom:to:.
The number of system calls issued when generating the documentation,
for example, is reduced by a third.
o Fixed bug in methods containing both -0.0 and 0.0 (positive and negative
floating-point zero).
o Fixed bug in Directory class>>#create:, that could not create a
directory relative to the current directory.
o Fixed bug in File>>#touch, which did not work really. There are also
methods to modify a file's atime and mtime.
o Fixed bug in SortedCollection. After #removeAtIndex:, adds would leave
the collection unordered.
o Fixed many more bugs.
o Introduced a method to efficiently convert a WriteStream into a ReadStream.
It is called #readStream and makes WriteStream more polymorphic with String.
o Introduced two more class shapes, #character and #utf32, that can be used
for String and UnicodeString.
o More reliable detection of at-end-of-file condition for pipes, TTYs,
and so on (especially on Mac OS X), and of sockets closed by the peer.
Due to incompatibilities between various OSes, you are advised to test
end-of-stream conditions *before* rather than after reading a character
from stdin. In 2.2, either way would work, but serious bugs were
found on Mac OS X unless stdin was redirected from a file.
o Moved gdk_draw_ functions to GdkDrawable.
o New goodie to parse the command line. Look at the documentation for
the Getopt class and for SystemDictionary>>#arguments:do:.
o New example, lazy collections. When loaded, #select:, #reject: and
#collect: do not create a new collection unless necessary. Idioms like
(a select: [ :each | ... ]) do: [ : each | ... ]
or
a := a select: [ :each | ... ].
a := a reject: [ :each | ... ].
a := a select: [ :each | ... ].
^a size
can be much faster when this example is loaded.
o Regular expressions are now included in the default image. The interface
is now definitive and is similar to 2.2. The concrete classes for
RegexResults are in a private namespace (since the user need not
instantiate them anyway). Right now, regular expressions are only
usable for String objects (see Unicode support below). This may
change in the future.
o The backtraces now omit again the internal methods in the exception
handling system.
o The class above which super-send bytecodes start searching is now embedded
in the bytecode stream. This provides the infrastructure to implement
'here' as in Smalltalk/X or 'self.Foo b' to execute the Foo>>#b method
(these possible extensions have not been implemented).
o The header files compile cleanly with a C++ compiler. For the occasion,
the preferred name of the old `mst_Object' has changed to `gst_object'.
o Various speedups.
Unicode support:
o Characters above 127 are no longer used to represent extended ASCII
characters. Instead, they are only used to represent a byte in
the encoding of the Unicode characters from 128 on. To create
them use the Blue Book method Character class>>#value:.
To represent Unicode characters above 127 use the (ANSI Smalltalk)
Character class>>#codePoint: method. Note that these characters
*cannot* be shown on a stream with #nextPut: (use #display: instead)
nor compared with #== (use #= instead).
Character literals like $+ or $A are guaranteed to create normal
"Character" objects, for which you can safely use #nextPut:. Right
now, these are valid only for characters between 0 and 127. To create
Character literals for unicode characters, use the new syntax to
express characters using their Unicode code point. This may be
extended in the future to support Unicode character literals.
A ``safe'' way to obtain the character whose encoding is between
128 and 255 is this (which requires the Iconv module to be loaded):
##('<your character>' asUnicodeString first)
(This snippet has no shortcut by design because, in general, converting
a Character to a UnicodeCharacter is not a well-defined operation).
o New UnicodeCharacter and UnicodeString classes. These new classes
can also be passed to and received from C functions. See the
manual for more information.
o New syntax $<13> to express characters using their Unicode code point.
As anticipated, this syntax will create instances of the new UnicodeCharacter
class when the number is > 127.
o Part of the I18N module was separated into the Iconv module, which
provides support for printing Unicode characters and strings correctly.
Other goodies:
o NCurses bindings, contributed by Brad Watson.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 2.1.12 TO 2.2
Scripting improvements:
o A sharp-bang sequence at the beginning of a file is parsed as a
one-line comment.
o Provides an "-f" option (long option "--file") to be used in a #! line,
as in "#! /usr/bin/env gst -f", which has the same effect of -Q,
processing the file indicated by the option's argument, and passing
the rest of the command line to GNU Smalltalk. In other words, the
two invocations that follow are equivalent:
gst -f script.st ARG1 ARG2
gst script.st -Qa ARG1 ARG2
o Load.st installed as gst-load, Reload.st installed as gst-reload,
Test.st installed as gst-sunit.
VM changes:
o Can define subclasses of CompiledMethod and have a method invoked on
the instances whenever the method is called.
o Can pass a "void **" to C using the #cObjectPtr parameter specifier
(previously undocumented and broken).
o The #class method can be overridden. This is useful for example
for debuggers and proxies.
o Code for decoding/interpreting the bytecode set is for the most part
automatically generated. Take a look at the ``genbc'' and ``genvm''
programs if you are going to write an high performance interpreter, and
write to the mailing list for any information on them or on the other
program ``superops'' (this one is much more specialized).
o CompiledBlocks and CompiledMethods are read-only.
o Dollars are allowed in the middle of identifiers and method names.
This is unportable, so do not abuse it. As with underscores, it is not
possible to use them at the beginning of an identifier or method name.
o Fixed bug that caused the compiler to accept duplicate argument or
temporary names.
o GCC needed to compile GNU Smalltalk.
o gst_smalltalk_args accepts a const char **.
o Improved clarity and portability using intptr_t, size_t and ptrdiff_t
more widely and wisely.
o Indexed instance variables can be 8-bit and 16-bit, signed and unsigned
integers; or they can be 32-bit and 64-bit, signed integers and unsigned
integers and floating point values; or objects of course. Previously
the only three possibilities were objects, 8-bit unsigned ints, and
pointer-sized unsigned ints.
o Instance variables are scanned backwards: if a subclass declares an
instance variable with the same name of the superclass, it wins when
compiling code in the subclass (fixes the so-called "fragile subclass"
problem).
o Keywords and parameters need not be separated by a space (as in
`self x: y z:w').
o New bytecode set. This is a significant departure from the Blue Book's
instruction set, and it improves performance by ~20%. Over 150 common
bytecode sequences are optimized, saving on dispatching overhead and
minimizing the cost of decoding arguments.
o Options -l and -L (--log-changes and --log-file) are no more. The
change log is not useful outside the GUI, while inside the GUI it
ought to be maintained by the GUI itself.
o Option -s is no more. It was made the default in 2.1.5.
o Passing floating-point arguments to C works.
o Prefetching instructions are used wherever supported (Alpha, SPARC,
PPC, AMD K6 or newer, Intel PIII or newer, all with GCC 3.2). This
speeds up the startup by up to 20%.
o Instances of subclasses of CompiledBlock and CompiledMethod can be
created using the same primitive that creates CompiledBlocks and
CompiledMethods, but sent to the subclass.
o Several important bug fixes in event handling and asynchronous file
input/output.
o Subclasses of MethodInfo can be used as the descriptors for CompiledMethod
objects.
o Two-character binary messages ending with a minus are scanned differently
if followed by a number: "1+-2" is now read as "1 + -2", not "1 +- 2".
This is what you would usually expect; however, including spaces explicitly
is recommended.
o When GCC 3.3 or later is used, a shared library is also built. The
code has been to some extent optimized to make this less expensive, but
the shared library still has a 5-10% performance hit. Note that the x86
shared library is undebuggable (-fomit-frame-pointer) with GCC < 4.0
because of the dearth of registers. The installed virtual machine is not
linked to the shared library for optimal speed.
o Wider set of operations available to modules that plug into GNU Smalltalk,
including access to system classes, queries on the method dictionaries,
and access to indexed instance variables.
Smalltalk changes:
o CLongDouble class allows one to access long doubles; long doubles are
supported by CStruct, Memory and ByteArray as well.
o CompiledCode>>#literalsDo: does what CompiledCode>>#allLiteralsDo:
used to do. CompiledCode>>#allLiteralsDo: recurses into literal
arrays.
o Glorp, a layer for mapping objects to relational databases, is provided
and integrated with the MySQL driver.
o GNU Smalltalk includes a mechanism for defining security policies
on a class-by-class basis. See below for more information.
o Interval can return a #first and #last even if the Interval is empty.
These are the start and stop object that it was created with. The
private methods #start, #stop and #step have thus been superseded by
#first, #last and #increment.
o #min: and #max: always return a NaN when one of the two operands is
a NaN; previously they would always return the other operand.
o New syntax for C call-outs, can be transparently filed out from the
image and then filed back in. See the documentation or the
kernel/CFuncs.st file for more information.
o PackageLoader can be told the namespace in which to load the package.
Most package loading scripts are now no longer necessary or can be
reduced to simple initialization duties.
o #raisedToInteger: is better optimized and does the minimum number of
multiplications for exponents up to 256.
o SequenceableCollection has a more efficient implementation of #fold:,
as well as #second, #third, and #fourth (and I'm going to stop here!).
o #return and #return: now reinstate exception handlers, which will
therefore be active while executing pending #ensure: or #ifCurtailed:
blocks.
o Stored CompiledBlocks into the method's literal frame for non-clean
blocks, and turned #blockCopy: into a `make dirty block' bytecode
without introducing a method of unclear utility. This is a little
faster and (consistently) saves around 1% on image files.
o The syntax for primitives has been generalized into a "method attribute"
mechanism; pragmas are accessible through methods in CompiledMethod.
o The thisContext variable is compiled as a message send like
"ContextPart thisContext".
o When a send to super fails, #doesNotUnderstand: is also sent to super
and not to self. This change is experimental; these semantics look more
coherent to me. As a result (think about it...) sends to super from a
root class are now forbidden.
o When a non-existing message is sent with the wrong number of arguments
(using #perform:), #doesNotUnderstand: is invoked. In the past, the
wrong number of arguments error would have been printed. The reason
for this is to allow selector names that would be invalid for the
Smalltalk language.
Work in progress:
o Blox-GTK interface, to use the browser under Gtk+. Currently, only
the browser works; to try it, configure with --enable-gtk=blox or
load the BloxGTK package. Thanks to Robert Collins.
o GNU Smalltalk now supports executing (some) Java programs. See the
info documentation for more information. The class library is based
on GCJ 3.4, but should be reasonably upwards-compatible. There is no
AWT nor JNI support, and it is not planned; networking, reflection and
serialization are not there but should be added in the future.
Overview of the security mechanism:
o Implemented class-level permissions. Each class can have its own
permission set, and if this is not trivial (all-allowed) the class
is marked untrusted; then instances of that class, as well as contexts
that have at least an untrusted object as the receiver in the sender
chain, are considered untrusted. In the future, security checks will
be made for untrusted objects in such methods as

o Instance variables of an untrusted class that are declared by a trusted
class are read-only. This is necessary to avoid that a misbehaving
class method screws up the instance variables of Behavior that are known
to the VM.
o Methods are verified.
o Permissions can be granted by a method to its callees if the method's
definition class owns those permissions. This can be used to invoke
trusted C call-outs.
o Primitives cannot be declared for untrusted objects (this might be
fine-grained in the future).

NEWS IN 2.1.12
This is a bugfix release. It fixes several problems on 64-bit systems.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS IN 2.1.11
This is a bugfix release.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS IN 2.1.10
This is a bugfix release, but with this visible change:
o PackageLoader supports loading package source code from multiple
directories.
Directory packages.xml is in Directories looked in
/usr/share/smalltalk /usr/share/smalltalk
parent of local kernel directory, if any
image directory
parent of local kernel directory parent of local kernel directory
image directory
image directory image directory
o Directory>>#append:to: supports passing an absolute path as the file
name (first argument). In this case, the file name itself is returned.
This release works under MacOS X 10.3 and 10.4 as well. It also works
around bugs in MacOS X Tiger's poll function.

* Make the scsl-* packages look more like the sun-* JRE and JDK packages.
* The scsl-jre15 package was built on NetBSD-2.0.x and needs libstdc++.5.0,
so require netbsd>=2.0. Bump the PKGREVISION of scsl-jre15 to 1 to
reflect the potential new dependencies on the compat20 and compat30
packages. This addresses part of PR pkg/36797.

otherwise for X11_TYPE == "modular", then build the libX11 package to

This fixes pkg/36838 reported by Ondrej Tuma.

depend upon to supply the Linux shared libraries already tell the user
this. The JDK packages also depend on the corresponding JRE package,
so they don't need to show the same message -- keep the message with
the JRE packages instead.
the Sun JDK/JRE packages require the "compat" Linux module, so make
that a hard requirement in EMUL_MODULES.linux.
Bump the PKGREVISION for sun-{jdk,jre}{13,14,15,6}.
* JS 1.6.0 is based on the same branch (1.8.0.9) as Firefox 1.5.0.9
and includes the same stability and security fixes.
* JS 1.6.0 includes support for JavaScript 1.6 with support for
E4X, several new Array methods, and Array and String generics.
We use the flat installation mode (e.g. no multiple versions by
default) by default. That avoids having to run DEINSTALL/INSTALL
scripts and allows DESTDIR installation.

Radey Shouman has changed LETREC to behave like LETREC*:
* eval.c (ceval_1): Change LETREC behavior to that of LETREC*:
initializers are run in left to right order, and may use
previously evaluated variables bound in the same contour. This
change also applies to LETRECs resulting from internal DEFINE.
* eval.c (macroexp1): Add #ifdef to switch case handling line numbers
in ceval_1 so that they are safely discarded when MEMOIZE_LOCALS is
not #defined. Perhaps line number generation should be disabled in
that case.
* scl.c: Changes to allow compilation with MinGW (gnu-win32);
asinh, acosh, and atanh are not yet supported.
From Aubrey Jaffer:
* indexes.texi (Indexes): Give each index its own node when not in
info mode. Moved index stuff here so it doesn't break
texinfo-every-node-update.
* scm.texi (Index): Replaced nodes under Indexes with node Index
when in info mode; fixes indexing in Emacs 21.4.1.
Converted to use @copying.
(Indexes): Reorganized.
(Data Type Representations): Corrected pattern for specfun and cclo.
* byte.c (subbytes): Added.
(scm_subbytes_read, scm_subbytes_write): Renamed from substring.
* Makefile (dscm4, dscm5): != is string operator in shell.
"mv -f" for previous scm, slibcat, and implcat.
* Init5e2.scm (boot-tail): Don't load ScmInit.scm if *script*.
(string-index, read-line): Defined for login->home-directory, which
may be called before REQUIRE is defined.
* Makefile (dscm4, dscm5): Added randomize_va_space machinations.
(dvi, pdf): New tetex-3.0(-20.FC5) broke them -- fixed.
(SETARCH): Workarounds allow dumping in recent Linux.
* time.c (linux): defined CLKTCK to (sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)).
* repl.c (scm_read_numbered): Don't #ifndef MEMOIZED_LOCALS.
* build.scm (dont-memoize-locals): Added feature.
(stack-limit): Removed feature.
* scmfig.h (STACK_LIMIT): Always defined.
(CHECK_STACK): Condition on scm_verbose.
* sys.c (stack_check): Always present.
* Makefile (docs): Added target to make all documentation files;
then invoke xdvi.
* ugsetjmp.s (_setjump, _longjump): For Ultrix VAX circa 1997.
* subr.c (mkbig, adjbig): Improved overflow message.
* mkimpcat.scm (wbtab, rwb-isam): moved to "Simple associations".
(add-source): Use 'source form and check file's existence.
* scl.c (scm_magnitude): Extend dynamic range by eliminating
intermediate expression swell.
(divide): Use "Smith's formula" to extend dynamic range;
but makes an insignificant difference when compiled with -O3.
(atanh, acosh, asinh): define if #ifndef HAVE_ATANH.
* scmfig.h (HAVE_ATANH): Decides whether atanh, asinh, and acosh
are supported.
* r4rstest.scm (5 2 1): Expose Bigloo tprint redefinition bug.
(test-bignum): Convert test bignums from strings.
(have-bignums?): Check bignum arithmetic works.
(test-inexact): Do complex tests only if non-real numbers are
supported.
(test-inexact): Added equal? tests.
(test-inexact): Test for -0.0 lossage.
(test-inexact): Check that / and magnitude work for
very large and very small complex numbers (1e300; 1e-300);
