mksh (59c-43) unstable; urgency=low

  * Explicitly B-D on bsdutils despite Priority: required
  * Add /usr/lib/$DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH/bin/mksh-g binary which is a
    debug build of mksh (with /bin/sh kludges and printf builtin),
    also built using ASan/UBSan (where available), so end users
    can debug some things more easily
  * Force musl to embed GNU build-id (for dbgsym matching)

mksh (59c-42) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update from MirBSD CVS HEAD
    - [tg] Spell out polymorphism in OS/2 glue for GCC 15 / ISO C23
    - [komh] Kill an execve(2)d child when a fork()ed parent ends on OS/2,
      where executing does not overlay the parent process
    - [komh] Fix compilation warnings on OS/2
    - [komh, tg] Disable checking for select(2) on OS/2 by default, as it
      only handles sockets, and mksh only uses it for timeouts anyway
    - [tg] Debug builds, when argv[0]="--unparse", show parse trees
    - [tg] In POSIX 2024, interactive shells may not exit if exec fails
      (in native mode, they must, of course; fix edge case for this)
    - [tg] Distinguish better between errorlevels 126 and 127
    - [tg] Add new POSIX 2024 option -p to trap builtin and reorganise
      its manpage section; mention how to capture its output in mksh
    - [tg] read builtin checks variables it writes to are identifiers
    - [tg] time no longer aborts the entire shell on error
    - [tg] work around another ancient sh(1) bug in Build.sh
    - [tg] accept ^[OM for KP_Enter
    - [tg] make error message less confusing (cf. Debian #1116560)
    - [tg] auto-detect ssize_t replacement if necessary
    - [tg] reduce amount of false positives for attribute detection
    - [tg] improve/fix rendering of I/O redirections in error outputs
    - [tg] make ^D in here documents not lose entire shell, but behav-ish
      more like ^C (sans the whole interrupt/trap handling)
    - [tg] move the mark when inserting text, and not more than we must
    - [tg, Amin] add complete-pathword example to FAQ
    - [tg] add experimental, (for now) undocumented support for ksh-style
      functions to take parameters, with default arguments; this feature is
      subject to change without prior notice and only base for discussion
  * Update lintian overrides
  * Bump Policy (keep Priority field to facilitate backporting, though)

mksh (59c-31) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Move dietlibc, klibc version checks from d/control to d/meat

mksh (59c-29) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Update from CVS HEAD:
    - [tg] Improve mbsdint.h further, make more versatile
    - [tg] Fix shift and rotate for nōn-power-of-two-sized quantities
    - [tg] shf_vfprintf can output mbiHUGE_{U,S} with %j now
    - [tg] ulimits can now be set and printed with mbiHUGE precision,
      no more 32-bit and/or int-size truncation
    - [tg] Reshuffle ulimit -v and -m assignment to both fulfil the POSIX
      requirement that -v is RLIMIT_AS if present and user assumption that
      -m is RLIMIT_VMEM or RLIMIT_RSS even if aliasing -v (for pkgsrc®)
    - [tg] Use of Build.sh -g or -DDEBUG in CPPFLAGS now limits (user)
      recursion so fuzzers triggering that won’t get a segfault; do not use
      this in a production shell because arbitrary user recursion (up to
      stacklimit) is guaranteed to scripts!
    - [tg] Plug minor valgrind memleaks not relevant in production
    - [tg] Fix iop leak in recursive parsing (found by Riccardo Felici,
      USI Lugano); make parsing more robust in related areas

      the normal case, whitelist OSes with reliable signal(3) bsd_signal
    - [tg, RT] Xenix has reliable signals but broken termios(4); cope
    - [tg] Speed up configuring: skip a few checks for ancient compilers

    - [tg] When importing env vars, first match now wins, like in libc

      (Mac OSX) which uses just UTF-8 for some reason‽
    - [tg] Run all tests with LANG=C since musl defaults to C.UTF-8 if all

    - show error message and exit nōn-zero on stdout write failure
      for builtin calls (Closes: #990265) + display correct errno
    - show error message in echo/print builtin on output write failure
      (it exits 1 already in that case)
    - ensure macro calls don’t have side effects in arguments
    - properly flush stderr and unwind for direct builtin calls
      (“ln -s /bin/mksh echo; ./echo …”)

  * Do not use sigsetjmp(…, 0) with klibc (cf. #988027)
  * Cherry-pick upstream memory leak fixes
  * Apply just enough upstream changes to address more escaping
    issues: for ${var@Q} and “typeset -p”, take UTF-8 mode (on/off)
    into account; don’t issue \uNNNN escapes outside of UTF-8 mode,
    don’t escape nōn-ASCII printable, that is, nōn-control characters;
    always escape C0 controls and DEL; escape C1 controls by default,
    but add an option “asis” to disable that (e.g. for DOS codepages)
    in nōn-UTF8 mode — note this will need fixing for tab completion,
    command line editing (in a subsequent upload)…

mksh (59c-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Apply targeted fixes, intended for bullseye:
    - [tg] Plug some memory leaks
    - [tg] Harden conversion of imported variables to integer, like
      Perl “taint”: imported variables will now lose the value when
      converting to integer but they are not purely numeric
      (CVE-2019-14868 was a similar issue in AT&T ksh); honour
      -o posix for leading-zero as octal, though (but continue not
      when importing array indicēs)
    - [tg] Fix lexer token state corruption when reading new input;
      makes evaluate-region editing command actually useful
    - [tg] Fix proper escaping/quoting and tab completion for tilde,
      curly braces and \x02, either escaped or not
    Note: patches are reduced to minimum change for bullseye

mksh (59c-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update to upstream CVS HEAD
    - [tg] Make "C" the implementation-specified default locale for
      early-locale-tracking (note full locale tracking will have to
      use whatever the underlying OS’ is, if no setlocale(3) it’ll
      be just "C" again) and document possibly removing turning on
      POSIX mode disabling and presence of a BOM enabling UTF-8 mode
      with full locale tracking
    - [tg] Document OPTU-16 (U+EF80‥U+EFFF) mapping for raw octets will not
      be present once mksh will have switched to full 21-bit UCS / UTF-8
    - [tg] Add several bigword-based editing commands to Emacs mode
    - [tg] Improve documentation wrt. $ENV
  * Bring locale tracking code somewhat closer to what will eventually be
    in upstream code (once I manage to do the related changes around MirBSD
    base and its scripts, which needs some more time and tuits):
    - drop BOM enabling UTF-8 mode code
    - no longer deactivate UTF-8 mode on entering POSIX mode
      (rationale: the POSIX locale parameters will be the only deciding
      factor; even if, nominally, only the POSIX locale is compliant)
  * Apply locale tracking to nōn-interactive shells as well

      on the horrors of ISO C Undefined Behaviour which is allowed to
      delete all your data
    - [tg] Unbreak “set -o” (list flags) in lksh on LP64 machines
    - [tg] Implement Emacs mode PgUp as Vi insert mode Cur↑ for Yofuh
    - [tg] Allow setting both “set -o sh” and “set -o posix”, if done in the
      same command; shuffle around compatibility levels (mksh/lksh, with
      -o sh, with -o posix) again; permit a /bin/sh to set either or both
    - [tg] Sync lksh manual page with the exact code ifdefs
    - [tg] Change more use of signed integer to use unsigned instead
    - [tg] Implement “set -o pipefail” like AT&T ksh93 and GNU bash do
    - [tg] dot.mkshrc: provide hd(1) in Pure mksh™ for fallback
    - [tg] Implement VALSUBs (value substitutions): ${|REPLY=foo;}
  * Let /bin/sh use both -o posix and -o sh for better standards compliance

mksh (45-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream stable release; changes:
    - [tg] Make “set -x” print the commands run in escaped form
    - [tg] PS4 in dot.mkshrc is now timestamped
    - [tg] The &> GNU bash I/O redir is no longer parsed in -o posix,
      -o sh modes, lksh (breaks valid scripts)
    - [tg] Implement ${ …;} more efficiently (deleted-open files)
    - [tg] For shf, %#s (if you can get it past GCC’s printf format attribute)
      calls print_value_quoted, ignoring field width and precision
    - [tg] Catch “typeset =” (regression) with better error message
    - [tg, Tonnerre Lombard] add “doch” alias to dot.mkshrc which just repeats
      the last input line with sudo(8)
    - [tg] Use unsigned integers for all calculations, to avoid ISO C
      “Undefined Behaviour” (and implementation-defined behaviour) throughout
      (most of) the code; emulate signed integer arithmetics using unsigned;
      not-lksh only
    - [tg] Emulate signed modulo naïvely, for correct sign of the result
    - [tg] Add <<< and >>> for ROL and ROR (rotate left and right,
      respectively) operations, <<<= and >>> assignments; bitwise AND the RHS
      of a shift/rotate op with 31 (not for lksh)
    - [tg] Remove a warning by working around a workaround found in dietlibc
      which works around a bug in broken software such as GNU tar (really!)
    - [tg] Correct and simplify list and categorisation of built-in commands
      as POSIX special and “everything else” plus a flag to keep assignments
    - [tg] Handle ((foo)) as “let]” internally to avoid a conflict with user-
      defined functions called let (LP#1156707)
    - [tg] Clean up the code

mksh (43-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * New upstream stable release; changes:
    - [tg] Do not permit $'…' and $"…" in anything that looks like a

      guaranteed by POSIX regarding unescaped dollar signs there
    - [dalias] Make detection of function prototypes more reliable
    - [tg] Quote setenv arguments for eval properly in dot.mkshrc
    - [tg] Validate parameter names for typeset, export, etc.

    - Don’t close stdout/stderr with redirections, dup /dev/null instead,
      always, both in dot.mkshrc and the testsuite, it does break!
    - Handle ${ …;} like functions in that local and return DWIW;
      use it for the big chunk in $PS1 to avoid fork(2)ing (at cost of
      tempfiles; dot.mkshrc is a sample, adjust to your needs)

  * Add hotfix for regression in 40.5 wrt. tty initialisation handling
    - [tg] Fix severe regression wrt. initialising tty(4) states
  * Build-Depend on newer dietlibc upload for testing that (will be
    removed in the next upload when 40.6 is out); if needed, we can
    always block the 40.5-1 upload from entering testing
  * Build with --as-needed

mksh (40.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * The “amused” upload
  * Patch up to mksh R40-stable branch of today:
    - [tg, RT, lewellyn] Better support for SkyOS, Minix 3, Ninix 3,
      QNX and various BSD/OS versions
    - [tg] Fix regression in mirtoconf output wrt. cached values (introduced
      with check if divmod fixup was needed)
    - [tg] Drop some Android-specific unused code (lsmod builtin)
    - [tg] More code cleanup and new developer-only debugging functions
    - [tg, Andrew Kudryashov] Fix some tab completion related escaping bugs

      MirOS variant NZAT
    - [tg] Use $'…' for non-ASCII parameters for re-entry printing
    - [tg] Use sane spelling of “read-only” consistently
    - [tg] Improve tree -DDEBUG functions (internal/developer use)
    - [tg] Reduce stack usage a bit; speed up hash tables at size cost
    - [tg] MKSH_SMALL no longer implies -fno-inline
    - [tg] Support optional seed in ${parameter@#seed} for security
  * Consider yourself warned about the following things:
    - once klibc ships mkstemp() we will build mksh-static against it
    - soon, probably before the wheezy freeze even, we will disable
      deprecated code (which users of are warned about, at the moment)
  * Policy 3.9.3 (no relevant changes)

mksh (40.4-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * The “sleepy” upload
  * Several fixes for klibc support:
    - dpkg-buildflags adds -fstack-protector, klibc doesn’t like it
    - on m68k, klibc builds need -g or they croak
    - unbreak overriding which toolchains are used for mksh-static
  * Patch up to mksh R40-stable branch of today:
    - [tg, RT] Move mirtoconf checks and INCLUDES_ONLY parts of sh.h
      around to ensure prerequisites are always available
    - [tg, RT, ir0nh34d] Pass mksh.exe to testsuite, if such thing is

      such cases
    - [tg] Imply -DMKSH_ASSUME_UTF8=0 on MSYS; optimise checks
    - [tg, Jb_boin] Fix regression introduced in R35b by jaredy’s

      (e.g. in TFOR)
    - [tg] Better support for tcc; fix GCCism that accidentally crept in
    - [tg] Deal with UTF-8 when reporting jobs’ commands
  * Omit dietlibc and don’t depend on lsb-release on hppa, to give
    it some chances to catch up (and mark for revisiting)
  * Note that mksh-static has some features disabled in the package
    description (unless DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS contains nomksh-small)
    ‣ do we want to have a dynamically generated binary package desc?
  * Copyright year is now 2012

      /bin/sh handling are now gone
    - The “motivated” upload
    + d/control: lsb-release is only needed on hppa at the moment
    + d/README.Debian: rework note on /bin/sh use for backports

mksh (40.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

    - [tg] Use += more in dot.mkshrc and keep strings shorter
    - [tg] Correct interworking between local and set -A
    - [tg] Fix out-of-bounds memory access on strings of 32 KiB length
    - [tg] MKSH_DISABLE_DEPRECATED (for integrators)
  * debian/.mkshrc: proper ksh88-hack char extraction and reuse
  * debian/rules: use dh_prep ipv “dh_clean -k” iff it exists,
    ONLY to please the new build log checker not taking backport‐
    friendliness of packages into account
  * Use more loose dietlibc-dev build dependencies again, except
    on known-bad cases (armel armhf s390) and need-verification
    cases (no build logs available yet: hppa sparc64) and new
    arches (s390x) but not on those where _some_ intermediate
    versions were bad but both old and new versions work and the
    testsuite falls back to eglibc if broken (powerpc sparc)
  * Update package description - pdksh is orphaned, suggests mksh
  * Log toolchain versions in buildinfo

  * The “visit us at OpenRheinRuhr” upload (AllBSD *and* Debian/m68k!)
  * Pull in mksh packaging CVS HEAD, to test-drive packaging changes
    (also gives us back PIE, relative to the last experimental upload,
    and tries dietlibc on both MORE and ALL architectures possible)
  * To also test dietlibc, version its B-D (this upload is not
    intended to be released with wheezy, there _will_ be another
    one before it, but it is needed to get dietlibc into shape
    for the wheezy and precise releases, and it delivers a fix)
  * Pull mksh CVS commit 1004EB9A7F80119200E, which fixes setting
    the base of several built-in integer parameters to 10 instead
    of retaining the one from the first assignment (regression)
    - [tg] Fix accidental behavioural change wrt some built-in parameters
  * Upload to unstable, despite the test status (also, this will
    not migrate to testing anyway, due to #633479)

    - [tg, Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz, Kacper Kornet] Fix mksh taking down the
      entire terminal, hard, when scripts use $COLUMNS and fork off utilities;
      regression introduced in mksh R37 (sorry, no regression test possible)
    - [tg, Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz] Properly mark need-ctty regression tests
    - [tg] MKSH_NO_EXTERNAL_CAT – Quell the external cat(1) calls magic
    - [tg, Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz] Yes, “echo” is not portable, document
    - [tg] Improve content and look of the manual page
    - [tg] Move /etc/{,suid_}profile to /system/etc/ on Android

    - [tg] Correct more tree handling bugs and merge similar code
    - [tg] Add “+=” to concatenate scalars and append to arrays
    - [tg] Support empty here document delimiters
    - [Robert Luberda] Fix the four-argument form of test(1)

mksh (39.3.20110328-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * Back out dietlibc [hppa] dependency on experimental package
    to be able to upload to unstable
  * New CVS snapshot fixing all known regressions from the
    recent experimental changes, as well as some more fallout:
    - [tg] Fix mis-detection of gcc format attribute (false negative)
    - [tg] Include some Android specific hacks (no change on other OEs)
    - [tg, Jb_boin] In ${foo/bar/baz} expressions, when adjourning empty
      patterns to avoid running into a busy-wait loop, remember to skip
      the anchor characters (‘#’ or ‘%’) at the beginning, yet keep the
      special meaning replacing a string begin or end with a string has
    - [tg] Write a pattern optimiser that is run internally before calls
      to the pattern matching code always (currently, replaces a@(b@(c)d)e
      with abcde but keeps @(a|a), then (in a second pass) collapses
      adjacent asterisk (‘*’) wildcards into a single one; this fixes some
      of the symptoms of severe performance issues our pattern matching code
      has to the extent that it can prevent busy-looping (found by Jb_boin)
    - [tg, Chris “ironhead” Sutcliffe, Chet Ramey, Eric Blake, David Korn]
      Handle pathnames with exactly two leading slashes well (SUSv4 3.266)
    - [tg, Wayne Pollock, Bart Schaefer] Fix here documents, add testcases
    - [tg] Fix corner case ${##1}, add tests for that and ${##} and ${#?}
    - [tg] Bring back “test -H” ifdef S_ISCDF (for HP-UX) from pdksh
    - [tg] Align read-only variable behaviour with (future) POSIX
    - [tg] Permit ${foo%(*} on FSH (Debian Closes: #619947)
    - [tg, rsc] Allow skipping testcases that need a controlling tty
  * High urgency because the fix for ${foo%(*} is required since without
    it, keyboard-configuration=1.68+squeeze2 can fail to configure
  * Copy history-subst-4 to mtest.t to ensure hppa mksh-static is usable
  * Tweak build process to prevent more redundant checks
  * On unattended Hurd builds, skip testcases that need a controlling tty

mksh (39.3.20110218-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New CVS snapshot:
    - [tg] Limit history file size to 1 GiB for sanity
    - [tg] Add smores, a more(1)-like pager, as shell function to
      dot.mkshrc (not control character safe but tty aware)
    - [tg, David Korn] Make builtins directly callable; utf8-mode is
      determined by LC_ALL/LC_CTYPE/LANG environment variables in that case
    - [tg] If the interactive shell uses setlocale(3)/nl_langinfo(3)
      to divine utf8-mode, fall back to environment variables unless success
    - [tg] When called as a builtin, echo(1) behaves POSIXish
    - [tg] Replace some MirBSD utilities with links to mksh(1) and ensure
      some integration to keep compatibility
    - [tg] Add a microsecond capable sleep(1) builtin
    - [tg] Add selftest-direct-builtin-call regression test
    - [tg] If the built-in cat is invoked from a direct builtin call, it
      now properly handles the POSIXly demanded ‘-u’ option (as a no-op)
    - [tg] Support the PIPESTATUS array (like GNU bash)
  * Rewrite packaging to automatically test for usable libraries
    (klibc (not yet) or dietlibc, fallback to eglibc) for mksh-static
    and better test whether the binaries built against them is usable
  * Try dietlibc on PowerPC, S/390, sparc again (we test the binary)
  * Bring back basic klibc support (can be enabled by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)

mksh (39.3.20110209-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New CVS snapshot:
    - [tg, Jörg-Volker Peetz] Emacs prev-hist-word resets the counter
      if other editing commands were run in between; repeat calling
      works, even together with arguments, now; arguments are 0-based
      (Debian Closes: #603801) – now for real ☻☺
    - [tg] Fix mis-sign comparison and potential truncation error
  * Support $debian_chroot in /etc/skel/.mkshrc (template)

 -- Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de>  Wed, 09 Feb 2011 13:30:29 +0000

mksh (39.3.20110203-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New CVS snapshot:
    - [tg] More int → bool conversion, whitespace and related code cleanup,
      error messages and typo correction
    - [tg] Don’t alias suspend on Android either (goes together with stop)
    - [tg] dot.mkshrc no longer exports $PS1, as recommended by Frank Terbeck,
      to avoid confusing other shells
    - [tg] The character width table is now in sync with Unicode 6.0.0
    - [tg] MKSH_SMALL doesn’t imply HAVE_REVOKE=0 any longer
    - [tg] Ignore a ‘$’ preceding ‘"…"’ (like bash, ksh93)
    - [tg] Make “foo=<<EOF” a direct assignment of here document (or here
      string) to string variable
    - [tg] Add KSHEGID, KSHGID, KSHUID variables (idea from Richard K.)
    - [tg] Option -d to read specifies a delimiter, like ksh93 (10x Dave)
    - [tg] Extension ${foo@#} expands to hash of $foo (mksh specific)
    - [tg] Emacs prev-hist-word now resets the counter if other functions
      were called in between (Debian Closes: #603801)
    - [tg] Introduce MKSH_NOPROSPECTOFWORK which implies MKSH_UNEMPLOYED
      and additionally disables job signals, sigprocmask(2), etc.
    - [tg] POSIX: trap 'echo foo' UNKNOWN is not a syntax error
    - [tg] Do not use <sys/file.h> unless it exists
    - [tg] dot.mkshrc: When we set a UTF-8 locale (e.g. for the GNU OS),
      we must also set -o utf8-mode to match it
    - [tg] Don’t append a space after tab-completing a parameter substi-
      tution that doesn’t contain a glob/extglob (LP: #710539)
  * add RCS IDs into more files
  * d/README.Debian: be more explicit about mksh-as-/bin/sh and
    mention we wait on klibc, to use it with mksh-static
  * d/control: add note on dietlibc B-D, which can be dropped
    e.g. if porting to Derivates that don’t have it, like UCS
  * d/control: update long description
  * d/copyright, d/rules: we use debian/rules get-orig-source" now
  * d/copyright: sync, 2011
  * d/rules: restructure a bit; add build-{indep,arch} targets
  * d/rules, d/x_getflag: use dpkg-buildflags if existent
  * d/po/it.po: update translation, grazie TetsuyO!
  * run debconf-updatepo

    - [OpenBSD] Some small manpage fixes
    - [tg] Clean up mirtoconf and build warnings with some compilers
    - [tg] Fix \c? vs. \c~ mis-documentation in mksh(1)
    - [tg] Remove the somewhat-portable setmode.c from the mksh source
      distribution and demote mknod(8) to an optional builtin, disabled
      by default, manually re-enabled in the installer only on MirBSD
    - [tg] Regenerate wcwidth table from Unicode 6.0.0
    - [tg] Change behaviour of argument-less exit in traps to match SUSv4,
      original patch from Jonathan Nieder (Debian Closes: #599484)

mksh (39.3.20100915-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=high

  * New CVS snapshot:
    - [Jeff Hamilton] Don’t alias stop on Android (system specific conflict)
    - [tg] Add size optimisations, ifdef’d, mostly for Android
    - [tg] Address what few concerns Chris Palmer (Android security team) had:
      check all multiplications and some additions for integer overflows,
      mostly in allocation context, and check setres{u,g}id/setuid for EAGAIN
      iff the target OS is known to be returning it (Linux only, right now)
    - correct a regression: 「read i?'foo:'」 was not working

mksh (39.3.20100905-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * New CVS snapshot:
    - [tg] More int → bool conversion, whitespace and related code cleanup
    - [tg] Improve mksh(1) manpage coverage, remove mentions of not-mksh
    - [tg] Use wcwidth() from system on MirBSD
    - [tg] u_int32_t is no longer needed (only for OpenBSD’s pre-ISO-C99
      arc4random API, which we no longer call), so don’t provide it from
      Build.sh any longer
    - [tg, tonnerre] Scan for uint8_t and provide if not found
    - [tg] Fix realpath builtin for “/file/” arguments wrt. POSIX
    - [tg] Do not generate <stdint.h> from Build.sh as file any more if
      it is missing; rather let sh.h define the types appropriately and
      fix related compiler warnings
    - [tg] Add “cat” builtin (defers to external if options are given)
    - [tg] Reduce size by improved string pooling
    - [tg] Document 「x=$(eval $(cat)) <<'EOF'」 workaround for the $(…)
      parsing bug in the mksh(1) manual page and on the Red Hat Bugzilla
    - [tg] Add support for handling a “--” argument to more builtins
    - [tg] Correct some error messages
  * Move extra/printf.c.1.nn to debian/extra/printf.c for improved
    compatibility with source/format 3.0 and reduced build warnings
  * Build with -Wall -Wextra in all modes
  * Mention where strict aliasing warnings in dietlibc mode come from

mksh (39.3.20100725-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * The “Portability?” release
  * Another new CVS snapshot:
    - [tg] More int → bool conversion
    - [tg] Fix window size not being checked during runtime
      of external programmes by not relying on SIGWINCH so
      much but instead checking before every interactive
      editing of a command line
  * High urgency because 39.3.20100721-1 isn’t yet in testing
  * Policy 3.9.1.0, no changes needed

mksh (39.3.20100721-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * The “WTF is up with all these bugs spotted?” release
  * Another new CVS snapshot:
    - [tg] Fix NULL pointer dereference during iteration loop
      when checking for alias recursion; discovered by Michal
      Hlavinka
  * High urgency due to SIGSEGV crashes

 -- Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de>  Wed, 21 Jul 2010 11:48:24 +0000

mksh (39.3.20100719-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * New CVS snapshot; summary of changes relevant to Debian:
    - [tg] Correct shf buffer I/O routines to avoid a memory
      corruption bug discovered by Waldemar Brodkorb and other
      bad effects (bug inherited from pdksh, anno 1999)
  * High urgency due to memory corruption and “set -x” fix

mksh (39.3.20100717-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * The “「Don't drink and dupload ;-)」? I use dput anyway!” release
  * debian/rules: revert change disabling -combined on dietlibc,
    since it appears to be of no practical relevance
  * debian/rules: disable dietlibc on sparc due to weird problems
  * debian/rules: adapt build log scanner contraband to newer gcc
  * Switch from patch system to applying patches directly to the
    extracted source in “1.0” style (in the future, “3.0 (quilt)”
    can ease this) by using repackaged orig.tar.gz
  * Install upstream’s dot.mkshrc as /etc/mkshrc and source this
    from a new, minimal, /etc/skel/.mkshrc (debian/.mkshrc); idea
    by Michal Hlavinka (RHEL package maintainer)
  * Use repackaged upstream snapshot; changelog:
    - [tg] Remove arc4random(3) functionality; seed an LCG depending
      on the OS doing Address Space Layout Randomisation; speed up
    - [tg] Fix spelling in dot.mkshrc
    - [tg] Implement “live” window resize for the Emacs editing mode
    - [tg] More fixes for bugs found by Valgrind and LLVM+Clang scan-build
    - [tg] For script compatibility support “set ±o arc4random” during a
      transition period until R40 is out (but issue a warning to stderr)
    - [oksh] Add (, ), (( to reserved words in the manual page and fix
      some formatting errors with GNU groff’s mdoc
    - [tg] Make printf.c.1.15 use mksh’s shf_* routines instead of stdio
    - [tg] Fix -Wc++-compat except implicit casts from/to "void *"
  * Update printf.c file added; the new version actually uses mksh’s
    shf functions instead of libc stdio, saves about 11K in mksh-static
  * Adapt debian/* to new versions
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.0.0 (no changes required)
  * Remove experimental, commented-out, klibc support for readability
  * Run debconf-updatepo; put something into Language: header lines
  * Lintian P: mksh: maintainer-script-without-set-e config

mksh (39.3-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/control, debian/rules, debian/mksh.install{,.in}:
    improve klibc builds (still disabled) and, for testing
    purposes, do full, dynamic, builds if klibc is enabled
  * debian/diffs/backport-fixes.diff: replace with upstream CVS diff
    between 39.3 and 20100522 and adjust manpage version number; changes:
    - [tg] Make default temporary directory configurable at compile time
    - [tg] Fix performance deficiencies in the built-in realpath function
    - [tg] Deprecate Build.sh -longoptions in favour of short ones:
      -valgrind becomes -g (like debug), -combine and -llvm become
      -c {combine,llvm} and the LLVM optimiser flags are passed via
      -O = -o -std-compile-opts
    - [tg] New Build.sh options -c dragonegg (for using the LLVM plugin
      to GCC 4.5 with inter-module optimisation), -v (version)
    - [tg] Document another way to get a coloured PS1 in the manpage
    - [tg] Disallow some more kinds to trim a vector; Closes: #581867
    - [oksh] Simplify some code; RCSID and comment sync with OpenBSD ksh
    - [oksh] Apply diff from manuel giraud to keep track of LINENO in a trap
  * Silence some build log checkers wrt. false positives triggered from
    mirtoconf output (affects both Debian and Debian derivate from Canonical
    that cannot be named, at least)
  * Put upstream changes for 39.3-2 and 39.3-3 into debian/changelog
    entries retroactively for proper documentation
  * debian/rules (if Debian derivate from Canonical that cannot be named):
    Exclude dietlibc on powerpc/ppc64 and sparc
  * debian/rules: the “diet” wrapper also eats most of our CFLAGS when
    passing them to cc, so disable combine mode there to avoid some of
    the problems, such as strict aliasing violations that are none
  * debian/control: prefer pax over cpio

mksh (39.3-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debian/diffs/backport-fixes.diff: replace with upstream CVS diff
    between 39.3 and 20100420 and adjust manpage version number;

    which, for example, is used by kwalletcli
    - [tg] Fix "${x#?}" expansion when quoted, for real this time

  * README.Debian: mention /etc/skel/.mkshrc
  * debian/diffs/backport-fixes.diff: replace with upstream CVS diff
    between 39.3 and 20100409 and adjust manpage version number; changes:
    - [tg] Correct small mistakes in manpage and build script
    - [ahoka, tg, stippi, bonefish] Port to Haiku (and probably, implicitly,
      BeOS; this is not tested though)
    - [tg, stippi] Add Haiku specific RLIMIT_NOVMON as ‘V’ to ulimit builtin
    - [tg] Let Build.sh cope with dirname(1) unavailability
    - [tg] In the Emacs editing mode, hi-bit7 octets are now considered
      “motion characters” for word boundaries – Esc+b, Esc+f, ^W, …
    - [tg] Make EXECSHELL default configurable at compile time (embedded)
    - [tg] If MKSH_SMALL do not compile in “set -o bgnice” by default
    - [tg] Rework how RLIMIT_{AS,RSS,VMEM} map to ‘m’ and ‘v’ ulimits

  * debian/control: make locales optional on avr32
  * debian/rules: disable locale support on avr32

    - [tg] Build system, code, docs and testsuite cleanup, also style(9)
    - [tg] Parse and evaluate ${parameter op word} correctly
    - [tg] Fix possible SIGSEGV in interactive mode bind builtin due to
      mis-optimisation of gcc combined with a bogus prototype;
      discovered by Grml.org's Frank Terbeck (ft), thanks!
    - [tg] Clean up some more strict *roff or compiler warnings: dashes,
      undefined macros; casting errors (constness, signedness, type
      width/class) and catch possibly unaligned pointer dereferences
      early; remove code/rodata redundancies, plug memory leaks
    - [smultron] Tweak the manual page: point out the word “colour”
    - [tg] Optimise dot.mkshrc DJB’s CDB hash implementations; add Bob
      Jenkins’ one-at-a-time hash (standard and leading-bit
      initialised); fix signedness in expressions; let the hashes use
      stdin if "$*" is empty, like Lb64{en,de}code; use
      “[[ -o utf8-mode ]]” ipv “[[ $- = *U* ]]”
    - [tg] Build.sh portability fixes: missing prerequisite headers;
      ensure $CC is never called without $CFLAGS; fix test.sh, et al.
    - [tg] Optimise internal variable representation; use one-at-a-time
      hash; cache hash values for faster resizing at zero memory cost;
      clean up hash table (keytab) code; switch hash table collision
      resolution algorithm to Python’s; prepare for later changes
    - [tg] Fix type errors in the source code (int → bool, size_t,
      mksh_uari_t)
    - [tg] Fix “${foo:bar:$baz}” not working (missing substitute() call)
    - [tg] Implement “typeset ±a” as nop
    - [tg] Support ksh93-like “${!foo[@]}” listing the keys (indicēs) of
      all set array elements
    - [tg] Support bash/ksh93-like “array=([key]=value …)” and
      (additionally) “set ±A array -- [key]=value …” to directly
      specify indicēs to use
    - [tg] Document the optional, unsupported, printf(1) builtin in TFM
    - [tg] Replace realpath(3) dependency and internally used
      get_phys_path() pdksh code with own implementation; always offer
      the realpath builtin
    - [tg] Implement nameref='typeset -n' (bounded variables) like AT&T
      ksh93 but with mksh-style nested/dynamic scoping and on-use
      resolving; they cannot currently be stored in an array though
    - [tg] Add “chdir” builtin doing the same as “cd” special builtin
    - [tg, David Korn] Document more differences between mksh (and
      pdksh) and AT&T ksh (or, more specific, ksh88, ksh93) in the
      manual page
    - [tg] Support “'a'” as an alternative to “1#a”, like ksh93 does
    - [tg] Add ksh’s “test -o ?foo”: true if “foo” is a valid shell

      are equivalent)
    - [tg] Support “$'…'” backslash-expanding single-quoted strings, as
      requested by David Korn, with almost the same syntax and semantics
    - [tg] Unify backslash expansion code (C style vs. print builtin)
    - [tg] Support “function stop () {” bashism
    - [tg] For several items in the source code that require order to be
      kept, provide from multiply-included header files; sort correctly

      control; sync list of flags, comments and manpage with reality
    - [tg] If MKSH_SMALL, reduce size by removing editor functionality
    - [tg] Support VT100 emulator style {Ctrl,Alt}-CurLeft/Right keycode
      sequences with new vt100-hack emacs bind function (LP: #355883)
    - [cnuke, tg] Remove more, like GNU bash extensions, from MKSH_SMALL
    - [tg] Remove more functionality, such as Emacs command line editing
      mode bind key macros, and other extensions, from MKSH_SMALL to
      help floppies
    - [tg] Make forking and subshells less expensive wrt. random state
    - [tg] Build and source code fixes for / caught by SUNWcc, HP aCC,

    - [tg] Make undef/def MKSH_NOVI into 0/1 MKSH_S_NOVI build flag
    - [tg] Get rid of "U getenv" in nm output, we already import environ
    - [tg] Simplify $RANDOM handling: reads are now either arc4random(3)
      (if available: set +o arc4random is no longer possible) or an LCG;
      writes are arc4random_pushb(3) if available for explicit writes,
      arc4random_addrandom(3) otherwise, or another one-at-a-time hash
      feeding the LCG; furthermore, RANDOM is now always exported to and
      imported from (implicit read: no push to kernel done) the
      environment vector on startup and spawning
    - [tg] Document mksh does not exactly use OPTU-8/OPTU-16 in the
      manpage, as well as when characters, octets, or screen columns
      are used
    - [tg] Fix exit 127 on "mksh /tmp/horsies" ipv of 1 on ENOENT,
      #548744
    - [Clint Adams] Fix typos in the testsuite
    - [tg, Clint Adams] Begin a shared testsuite for mksh and posh

      #445651
    - [tg] Work around Cygwin bugs (quirks) hindering the testsuite
    - [tg] In FSH mode, “echo [-n] 'foo\x40bar'” shall not be expanded
    - [tg] Let set -- $(false); echo $? return 0 (POSIXly correct) in
      FSH mode, 1 (needed for getopt(1) support) otherwise
    - [tg] Changes of variables inside Bourne style POSIX functions
      indeed affect the current execution environment (of the function
      caller)
    - [tg] Fix getopts behaviour (sync with AT&T ksh93 not ksh88)
    - [tg] “eval $(false)” shall return 0 (Debian Closes: #550717)
    - [tg] Ensure that /* apo'strophes in comments */ work

      dot.mkshrc and add more examples, some commented out
    - [tg] Fix print_columns() issue with displaying items where

      off-by-one which had hidden this problem with 2-octet 1-column
      and 3-octet 2-column chars
    - [tg] Beautify the manpage in both AT&T nroff and GNU groff
    - [tg] Fix null-expansion of “${x%?}” if $x is unset
    - [tg] Make some globbing (${x%?}) operate on characters instead of
      octets; update manual page to reflect that others still do and
      remove wording that let people think we’d ever support POSuX
      character classes
    - [tg] New ${%foo} returning width of $foo in screen columns, or -1
      if $foo contains an ASCII/latin1/Unicode C0/C1 control character
    - [tg] Fix subtle possible portability problem wrt. CHILD_MAX
    - [tg] Honour ±U on command line of an interactive shell
    - [tg] Fix dead stores and other bugs pointed out by the Clang
      static analyser; put assertions in places it has false positives
    - [tg] Plug uninitialised memory access and possible out-of-bounds
      read of a buffer caught by Valgrind; change one memcpy(3) to

      workaround for false positive
    - [tg] Rework __attribute__ compiler capability check
    - [tg] Apply errno save/restore related fix from (sync with) oksh
    - [tg] Build.sh: output message when switching from
      autoconfiguration to building / output generation (requested by
      Matt “lewellyn” Lewandowsky); use “conftest.c” ipv “scn.c” (to
      please ccache); ...
    - [tg] Allow “unset foo[*]” (keep attributes) and “typeset foo[*]”
      (for forward-compatibility; R39b it’s the same as “typeset foo”)
    - [tg] When persistent history is enabled (but not MKSH_SMALL) and
      used, intertwine the shells concurrently accessing $HISTFILE
      better ⇒ sync on empty or duplicate line as well (requested by
      Maximilian “mxey” Gaß)
    - [tg] Split off “set ±o posix” and “set ±o sh” again, to be
      somewhat more compatible to various old or vendor versions of
      pdksh and mksh:
      + MKSH_BINSHREDUCED sets FSH but not FPOSIX
      + MKSH_MIDNIGHTBSD01ASH_COMPAT depends on FSH but not FPOSIX
      + The echo built-in behaves the same for FPOSIX and FSH
      + File descriptors > 2 are not closed for both FPOSIX and FSH
      + Both “set -o posix” and “set -o sh” call “set +o braceexpand”
      + In contrast to R39 and below, the errorlevel of
        “set -- $(getopt ab:c "$@")” is now the same in ksh and
        FPOSIX mode (0) and only FSH will use the errorlevel of getopt
        (used to be the other way round)
    - [tg] Document some more shortcomings in the mksh(1) manual page
    - Contributed printf.c fixes:
      + [tg] Make printf(1) builtin use “$'…'” mode, like ksh93
      + [tg] Fix const-cleanliness

mksh (39.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version R39 (despite #540512, I got fed up waiting for
    Guillem/Gerrit to contact me), Closes: #541617; complete ChangeLog:
    - [tg] Shut up a bogus gcc warning during configuration process
    - [tg] Spell AT&T consistently in the source code
    - [tg] Tweak mksh(1) manual page, from wbx@ and «lewellyn:#ksh»
    - [tg] dot.mkshrc: fix $@ vs. $* mix-up
    - [tg] dot.mkshrc: add DJB cdb hash function
    - [tg] Sync with oksh: fix Vi editing mode word erase handling, again
    - [tg] Skip whitespace between POSIX style shell function name and
      its definition parenthesēs during detection if an alias of the same
      name already exists to be more robust (Debian Closes: #535970)
    - [tg] Build system improvements for ACK and nwcc, both on Debian sid
    - [tg] Fix spelling error in changelog discovered by Lintian
    - [tg] Aligh “set -o nounset” / “set -u” behaviour with future POSIX
      standard, as discussed with GNU bash maintainers, David Korn from
      AT&T ksh93, and The Open Group; prompted by use in Debian;
      Closes: #539538
    - [tg] add an unsupported way to make printf(1) a builtin
    - [tg] Build system and regression test code and comment improvements:
      better and more comments matching reality better; more reliability
      w.r.t. passed CPPFLAGS; more of the MKSH_SMALL changes may be
      overridden, all of them are now enumerated on the webpage; fixed
      some breakage; portability
    - [tg] MKSH_NOPWNAM and MKSH_SMALL will now both disable the ~fac/
      (homedir) expansion code wholly if defined, not just getpwnam(3)
      calls
    - [tg] shells without job control no longer define the standard
      “stop” and “suspend” aliases (they are pointless anyway);
      regression tests know
    - [tg] use system RCS ID macros on MirBSD if decent enough
    - [tg] shut up bogus gcc 4.5/trunk warnings caused by
      over-optimisation
    - [tg] restore ANSI C compilability broken in R38 (speed up, even)
    - [tg] use memcpy(3) ipv strlcpy(3) if possible and safe and secure
  * Integrate czech translation update, Dêkuji; Closes: #534788
  * Switch to debhelper 5, by suggestion of Patrick “aptituz” Schönfeld
  * Add (commented out) framework for building with klibc, pending
    bugfixes and enhancements I submitted to the Debian BTS; can be
    customised for with/without MKSH_SMALL and dynamic/static linkage
  * debian/copyright: remove setmode.c remark, it is never used:
    mksh-full has it provided by libbsd; mksh-diet, mksh-small, and
    mksh-klibc have the mknod builtin disabled and do not need it;
    strlcpy.c is provided by libbsd, dietlibc and klibc, so neither
    mksh-full nor mksh-diet (nor mksh-klibc) need it, only mksh-small
    in the glibc version (on platforms where dietlibc is unavailable)
  * debian/rules: Append -e to sub-make command line, to force it to
    use the correct build environment (mostly CFLAGS)
  * Apply policy compliance (-o posix if run as sh) to mksh-small
  * Disable duplication of -Wall on the compiler command line
  * debian/rules: improve comments
  * mksh-klibc: debian/rules can now build an MKSH_SMALL flavour
  * Let mksh have all builtins dash has; Closes: #532343
    ‣ New diffs/add-builtin-chdir.diff: add “chdir” builtin (= “cd”)
    ‣ New diffs/add-builtin-printf.diff: add “printf” builtin (manpage)
    ‣ debian/copyright, debian/rules: new source file printf.c (code),
      install and use it; make sure klibc has strtod(3) disabled
    ‣ New diffs/add-builtin_common.diff: common part of the diff
  * New diffs/zz-version.diff: use Debian specific ksh version number
  * debian/rules: reorder some assignments to make it better readable
    and add and improve comments
  * debian/watch: add RCS ID and comments
  * debian/mksh.menu: don’t create an entry for Diet mksh any more
  * debian/mksh.menu, debian/mksh*.xpm: add icons, long description
  * Update spanish translation; from asarch via IRC, ¡gracias!
  * Fix a spelling error and repetitiveness in the German translation
  * Use portuguese debconf translation for the missing parts of the
    brasilian-portuguese translations and mark them fuzzy
  * Translate the missing dutch parts myself (as good as I can)
  * Convert all debconf translation files to UTF-8
  * Remove VCS-CVS field override; the Lintian maintainers have
    agreed to adjust it so that anoncvs-over-ssh is not criticised
  * Switch to Debian Policy 3.8.3, no relevant changes

    - [Sean Boudreau] QNX 6.4.2 ed(1) is said to have the bugs fixed
    - [tg] Build.sh bugfixes: -DMKSH_BINSHREDUCED can also be given
      without -DMKSH_SMALL; allow HAVE_REALPATH=x and HAVE_REVOKE=x in
      the environment to re-enable these even if -DMKSH_SMALL disables
      them by default, like mknod already did
    - [tg] -DMKSH_ASSUME_UTF8=0 skips the environment checks, like
      -DMKSH_ASSUME_UTF8=1, but disables the utf8-mode
    - [tg] Apply some more KNF – style(9) – to the source; clean it up
      and further optimise for small size
    - [OpenBSD] Fix segfaults caused by missing check for end of input
      in the tokeniser on “let --” and other input
    - [OpenBSD] Make Vi editing mode ^W behave like Emacs mode’s
    - [tg] If no killpg(3) is available, use kill(2) and hope it works
    - [tg] -DMKSH_NO_LIMITS skips trying to build the ulimit code

  * debian/control: depend on locales-all on m68k because its
    locales and glibc packages are not up to date / installable
  * debian/rules: ignore localedef failure (uncritical to build)
  * New upstream version R38; complete ChangeLog:
    - [tg] Improve regression test output debugging
    - [tg] Fix <libutil.h> prerequisites on MidnightBSD in mirtoconf
    - [tg] Mention that RedHat BZ#496791 cannot currently be fixed in
      the manpage by discouraging use of apostrophes in comments in
      comsubs; add appropriate (expected-fail) regression tests
    - [tg] Sync with OpenBSD ksh (mostly a no-op)

      keybindings (tcsh-like) to the Emacs command line editing mode
    - [tg] Bind new search-history-{up,down} to ANSI PgUp and PgDn keys
    - [tg] Document ANSI default keybindings (↑↓←→ Home End Del
      PgUp PgDn) in the mksh(1) manual page as well
    - [tg] Optimise internal UTF-8 handling code for size and reusability
    - [tg] Incompatible change: ${foo:1:2} and ${#foo} now operate on
      characters, not on bytes. Characters are octets (set +U) or
      (utf8-mode) MirOS OPTU-8 multibyte characters (set -U)
    - [tg] Improve regression tests relating to ${foo:1:2} and ${#foo} and
      let wc=1#x and utf8-mode

      trigger if FPOSIX (or MKSH_BINSHREDUCED and /bin/sh)
    - [tg] Remove already-dead “#if 0” style debugging code
    - [tg] Change some code into a more portable fashion, optimise
    - [tg] Allow [[ $foo ]] (ksh93 extension) mentioned by pgas

    provide separate copyright file for Debian
  * Remove package-uses-deprecated-debhelper-compat-version
    lintian override to show up in statistics, we want to
    retain the old debhelper version to facilitate backports

      (mostly from Alexander Hall), remove dead code (the beeping) and
      optimise
    - [tg] Add (commented out, undesired, standards compliance breaking)

      screen is less wide than one output column; 10x Gábor Gergely
    - [tg] Fix ${foo/@(%)/\\x} in UTF-8 mode (utf_widthadj for control
      characters U+0080‥U+009F is slightly broken; this fix shifts the
      brokenness into the command line editing mode only)
    - [tg] Introduce mksh_ari_t and mksh_uari_t internal types to limit
      arithmetics to 32 bit on all systems; currently depending on the
      already-used standard int32_t and uint32_t types. Future expansion

    ‘-DMKSH_BINSHREDUCED’ to CPPFLAGS to enable the functionality
  * New upstream version; complete ChangeLog:
    - [tg] Add check for naming the output file “scn” instead of “a.out”
      or “a.exe” when compiling scn.c, for Haiku, from Adam “replaced” Hoka
    - [tg] Rewrite utf_backch macro and x_bs2 function into a combined
      x_bs3 function for the Emacs editing mode, to optimise them and get
      rid of the use of __typeof__ (suggested by Anders “ragge” Magnusson

      Gentoo has similar scanner issues; reported by Hanno Böck
    - [tg] If an MKSH_SMALL has arc4random(3), skip the rand(3)/srand(3)
      fall-back altogether to shrink size, also removed need for time(3)

      in a publically accessible CVS repository
    - VCS-CVS and VCS-Browser fields have been added to debian/control
    - source is extracted to ./mksh and built, using relative paths to the
      source code, in ./build/full and ./build/small; both are .cvsignore’d
    - most files now carry an RCS ID
    - paths in mksh.install, mksh.manpages, rules have been adjusted
  * word-wrap debian/control lines to 80c
  * add build dependency on cpio (for distfile extraction)

  * Add DM-Upload-Allowed control field to prepare for future updates
  * Add workaround to “posix-mode-2” regression test to cope for GNU
    getopt idiocy to not stop argument parsing upon encountering the
    first non-flag argument: “ln -s mksh -sh” tries to parse -s and -h

mksh (35.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Workaround for false positives on IA64, Closes: #492377
    (by circumventing the regex matcher for code not actually used)
  * The mksh-static binary on non-dietlibc arches was not statically linked
  * MKSH_STATIC implies MKSH_NO_PWNAM, remove duplicate definition

mksh (35.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update to BSD-advertising-clause-free new upstream release; changelog:
    - Simplify and refactor the ulimit builtin, partially from oksh
    - Some style cleanup; use appropriate integer types
    - Fix a bug in table (e.g. kill -l, tab completion) display: the width
      of non-ASCII characters is now honoured in the utf8-hack mode
    - Improve handling of invalid UTF-8 in certain areas, and multibyte
      (UTF-8 / CESU-8) in general
    - When using “typeset -Z«n»” on an integer variable with a base other
      than ten, zero-pad the value instead of the base – pdksh, oksh, zsh,
      and AT&T ksh93 are wrong here; GNU bash doesn’t even have typeset
    - Improve parsing of “set +o” output where done (dot.mkshrc, check.t)
    - Improve regression tests
    - Support for base-1 numbers: in non-utf8-hack mode, ‘1#x’ means the
      same as the ASCII code for ‘x’ (e.g. 78hex), where ‘x’ is any single
      octet (byte); in utf8-hack mode, ‘x’ is either a valid and minimali-
      stically encoded UTF-8 multibyte character in the range 0000‥FFFD,
      or a single octet with no trailing octets (bytes), which will then be
      converted as if it were an ASCII value, or, if bit7 is set, be mapped
      into the PUA range of EF80‥EFFF assigned by CSUR for this purpose;
      this mapping is, in both cases, bidirectional; the planned base-0
      number support is not possible with the code, so use base-1 (with
      utf8-hack disabled, or & 0xFF) instead (while it is recommended to
      parse only single octets, there is a regression test showing correct
      and safe multibyte parsing, which however is error-prone to implement
      and thusly not recommended) – “genial” replaced@TNG, “this sounds
      fun” ggergely, agreed bsiegert@ and others
    - Pull in more current versions of supplied files; use Unicode 5.0
    - Clean up unused definitions in build system; document MKSH_CLS_STRING
    - Remove advertising clause from copyright file; while we’d be pleased
      to be mentioned if something contains our code, tg@ will no longer
      enforce the requirement to advertise with that specific formula, and
      we’d prefer if people remember the OpenHAL vs ath5k incident and that
      they cannot simply change licencing of existing code; patches sent to
      the MirOS Project for inclusion shall be accepted if they’re agreed
      to match this licence
    - Simplify dot.mkshrc sample file: licence is merged into the main
      copyright file; AT&T ksh93 compatibility was improved
    - Fix a display problem regarding fullwidth characters (e.g. CJK)
    - Set the “C” locale in Build.sh for tool execution; otherwise, cer-
      tain OEs behave strange; thanks to Adam “replaced” Hoka for spotting
    - Use en_US.utf8 as UTF-8 locale for the testsuite for now
    - If setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") is not available, look at the environment
      variables ourselves – brings UTF-8 support to poor OSes
    - Remove some now-dead code; speed up configuration process; shrink
    - Default to no setlocale(3) due to stubbed or missing locale support
      on GNU/Cygwin, OpenBSD, OSF/1 in Build.sh; a few more that are quite
      unlikely to have a UTF-8 locale: BSD/OS, Interix, Minix, PW32,
      Ultrix, AT&T UWIN; default to always UTF-8 on Plan 9
    - Fix for testsuite unexpected failure if running as root in one case
    - Initialise all shell integer variables (OPTIND, PPID, RANDOM,
      SECONDS, TMOUT) to base 10
    - Reintroduce from mksh pre-R24 shell integer variable PGRP set to
      the PID of the process group leader via getpgrp(2)
    - New shell integer variable USER_ID set to the geteuid(2) and used
      by dot.mkshrc to speed up logins, saves a spawn of id(1), mentioned
      by and realisation planned with Andreas "gecko2" Gockel
    - Fix dot.mkshrc tilde replacement in both $PS1 and the pushd/popd/dirs
      implementation when the home directory is empty, the root directory,
      or ends with a slash (disable replacement in that case)
    - Support dietlibc, force it into providing a BSDish caddr_t
    - Do not use LDFLAGS and LIBS while compiling with -c
    - Add realpath(3) builtin, to further speed up logins and chdirs
    - Optimise the code somewhat by making use of possible assumptions
    - Set the “C” locale in test.sh as well to quell warnings
    - Split the regression tests that use locale between en_US.utf8 and
      en_US.UTF-8, since not all OSes support either one, and make only
      HP-UX and GNU use the latter
    - Fix kill, mknod(8) builtin usage msg, from Igor Sobrado via oksh
    - Use proper ptrdiff_t casts for pointer arithmetics, inspired by an
      oksh commit from Federico Schwindt
    - Remove check category “pdksh” from check.t and test script
    - Improve Darwin, OSF/1, HP aCC, SUNpro version reporting
    - Support GNU bash “&>” extension, even better than they do, suggested
      by Lukas “smultron” from MidnightBSD
    - Basic support for LLVM+clang in the build system with experimental
      “ccc” compiler driver; llvm-gcc worked as-is before already
    - Better support for contributed arc4random.c file
    - Do not spin if unlink(2) fails on $HISTFILE, from Decklin Foster
    - Dump the perl(1) $^O variable in test.sh to logs
    - Pull in latest changes from oksh
    - Allow white space between a here string indicator and the string,
      accidentally discovered by twkm (#ksh, freenode)
    - Allow fd specifications outside the 0‥9 range for I/O redirections,
      and bounds check them to be lower than the FDBASE definition,
      currently still 10 if MKSH_SMALL, 24 otherwise (unportable)
    - Improve the regression test suite: for one test, we had a bizarre
      constraint telling it won’t work on UWIN, which was based upon false
      assumptions, but Tru64 would fail it since its cat(1) unexpectedly
      outputs some error messages (fix by closing stderr for cat); another
      test would unexpectedly print no error message on Solaris (fix by
      making the error message optional in the perlre(1) used)
    - Switch back to en_US.UTF-8 for glibc, Debian can do both, Mandriva
      fails on en_US.utf8 (XXX no libc5 auto-detection to disable it)
    - IRIX also has no UTF-8 locale at all, confirmed by Elias Pipping
    - Fix regression test suite for MKSH_SMALL
    - Bring in latest changes from oksh (OpenBSD ksh, not DeliLinux crap)
    - Fix abuse and unsafe use of str_save() and str_nsave()
    - Optimise the implementations of str_save() and str_nsave()
    - If MKSH_AFREE_DEBUG is defined, guard against afree()ing a pointer
      which has not been allocated from the given pool, from Todd C. Miller
    - Fix attempt to free a pointer to stack (function-local) storage when
      redefining a function containing a call to the “time” built-in,
      discovered by Elias Pipping, patch by Jared Yanovich, help from
      Todd C. Miller
    - Protect a little against people not running “./test.sh -v” but
      calling it with, for instance, GNU bash (as homsn did…)
    - Honour $PERL environment variable in test.sh, improve scanning for
      Perl, do not use potentially undefined $^O, print Perl version
    - Add <sys/types.h> as <ulimit.h> requirement (dietlibc)
    - Work around bug in BSD/OS 3.1 /bin/ksh (PD KSH v5.2.8 96/08/19)
    - Add regression tests from OpenBSD’s <bsd.regress.mk> suite
    - Use better CPPFLAGS for AIX, Minix 3 (from pdksh)
    - Expose the “s ≠ NULL” str_[n]save_() API and use it where the string
      can never be NULL (local stack storage), from gcc-4.2 warnings
    - Clean up pointer-to-integer-cast warnings in the mirtoconf process
  * New debian-policy version: 3.8.0.1
    - DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS: add -Wall to default CFLAGS, fix “noopt” handling,
      add “nostrip” handling, ignore “parallel=«n»” as we cannot specify a
      maximum value to Build.sh
    - Convenience copies: switch from a contributed arc4random.c file to
      using the new libbsd Debian package, 10x Hector, Guillem et Aurelien!
  * debian/control: sync Description field with upstream suggestion
  * Rename menu entry from "MirBSD ksh" to "MirBSD Korn Shell" for clarity
  * Add a mksh-static binary, for initrd, initramfs, installer, rescue
  * Integrate translation updates, ありがとう; Closes: #483506
  * Integrate translation updates, tack; Closes: #491950

mksh (33.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; changelog:
    - Move a portability define from sh.h to the setmode.c helper, as it’s
      only needed there, and we want to use the latter from MirMake as well
    - SECURITY:  when spawning mksh on a new terminal, for example with
      “sudo mksh -lT/dev/ttyC7”, flush all of that tty’s I/O first
    - dot.mkshrc: ensure “ls” is no alias, don’t hardcode its path
  * As dash won’t be the default /bin/sh without the current alternative
    handling / debconf mechanism in lenny (as per the mail from Martin
    Zobel-Helas), there is no need to act regarding our debconf scripts
    and /bin/sh ability, so I think this Closes: #469675

mksh (33.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; changelog:
    - Handle Ultrix mmap(2) having a different prototype (returning a caddr_t
      instead of a void * and not defining MAP_FAILED; making Ultrix 4.5 a
      fully supported platform
    - Decrease code size and optimise (using puts-style functions instead of
      printf-style functions for fixed strings; bool instead of int)
    - Correct behaviour of “export”, “export -p”, “readonly”, “readonly -p”,
      “typeset”, “typeset -p”, “typeset” and their respective descriptions in
      the manual page; problem reported by Danijel Tasov
    - Work around dup2(2) problem (preserving the close-on-exec flag) on
      Ultrix using code from mirbsdksh-1.11, lost in oksh
    - Clean up Build.sh a little more
    - Correct quotes and some other stuff in the regression tests; fix for
      running with old Perl (5.002 or so, Linux 2.0, BSD/OS)
    - Export the new “__progname” and “__perlname” environment variables to
      the suite run from check.t in check.pl
    - Do not mistake IBM xlC and VisualAge for different things, thanks to
      Pascal “loki” Bleser from OpenSuSE for information on them

mksh (33.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; changelog:
    - Fix some minor code issues remarked by MIPSpro
    - Port to SGI IRIX 6.5 (uname: IRIX64) using gcc and MIPSpro
    - Scan for a lot more compilers; add support for MIPSpro
    - Ignore if the OS doesn’t define MAP_FILE for mmap(2)
    - Use sys/types.h as sys/mkdev.h dependency
    - Enable OSF/1 V2.0 /bin/sh to run Build.sh
    - Add strcasecmp(3) proto for Ultrix 4.5 only (imake style)
    - Add S_ISLNK if the OS doesn’t define it
    - Use tempnam(3) if mkstemp(3) not found – not recommended
    - Reduce dependency on certain OE facilities: printf(1), fgrep(1) being
      able to scan for two patterns at the same time, perl5 being named perl
    - New -T- option for dæmonisation, cf. man page
    - Port to BSDi BSD/OS 3.1 (gcc 1.42 and gcc 2.7.2.1 supported)
    - Simplify the dot.mkshrc file and make it more robust
    - Report OE and $CC version in Build.sh, for logs
    - Fix look’n’feel of the mksh(1) manual page, so that it still looks best
      in AT&T nroff(1), looks much better in GNU groff (the PDF version we
      place on the website), and looks some better and gains the ability to
      copy’n’paste from it for GNU gnroff -Tutf8, originally prompted by
      Patrick “aptituz” Schoenfeld and “lintian -viI mksh*.changes”, but then
      improved (and nroff hacked) by tg@ a lot
    - Shut up some gcc warnings (explicit braces; cast MAP_FAILED)
    - Try to get rid of the test “if the compiler fails correctly” by using
      the errorlevel of the $CC process (except with Microsoft Visual C++
      which returns non-zero even on success sometimes), thus supporting
      DEC C on OSF/1 (and, quite possibly, gcc3 on Mac OSX Leopard)
    - If revoke(2) and flock(2) are found, check if they’re declared
    - Promote Tru64 to a fully supported operating environment, even though
      it needs a plethora of _*_SOURCE defines and has SIGMAX instead of NSIG;
      OSF/1 V4.0 and Tru64 (OSF/1 V5.1) are supported with both gcc and
      HP/Compaq/DEC C in various versions
    - Generalise the workaround for incompatible sig_t across the platforms
      that need it (currently, OSF/1 and PW32)
    - Shut up annoying warning about gcc 2.7.2.3, 2.8.1, 2.95.x not knowing
      the “-std=gnu99” and “-std=c99” options without setting proper errorlevel
  * Remove debdiffs for things included in upstream:
    - manpage diff
    - displaying of OS and compiler versions before build
  * Update arc4random.c file from MirBSD contrib repository for now, until we
    have libbsd in Debian !kfreebsd sid (coming soon I hope)
    - fixes “warning: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute
      warn_unused_result” occuring on e.g. Fedora GNU/Linux

mksh (33.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; summary of changes:
    - Sync with OpenBSD ksh (no real functional changes)
    - Enhance the print builtin with two new escape sequences: \xAB
      parses the next up to two hexadecimal digits AB and outputs a
      raw octet (byte) whose ordinary value is AB; \uABCD parses up
      to four hexadecimal digits and outputs the UTF-8 (CESU-8) re-
      presentation of the unicode codepoint U+ABCD from the BMP
      (Basic Multilingual Plane), not depending on the locale
    - The . (“dot”) command (and its counterpart source) needs an
      argument (the script to source); from Debian pdksh package
    - In the lexer, do not expand aliases if there is an opening
      parenthesis just after the token (from Debian pdksh). This
      fixes the namespace issue that caused a POSIX function de-
      finition stop() { … } to fail due to “stop” being a built-
      in Korn shell alias. Now, aliases are removed when a POSIX
      function with the same name is defined; Korn functions are
      still different: their definition does not fail, but the
      alias retains its precendence (unchanged behaviour)
    - Accordingly, do not disable built-in aliases in POSIX mode any more
    - Since POSIX mode now only turns off braceexpand mode (which
      can then be turned back on), do not handle being called as -sh
      or sh specially any longer
    - Clean up the source code: make some constants private to the
      only file using it; optimise; comment some code; improve
      portability with regards to stupid tools in /usr/bin (or
      /usr/xpg4/bin) and foreign compilers
    - Implement “here strings” (like ksh93 or zsh; GNU bash col-
      lapses white space if the string is not double-quoted): you
      can now replace “print -r -- "$foo" | command” with
      “command <<<"$foo"” with the very same semantics as
      “command <<EOF
       $foo
       EOF” (stripping initial tabs is not possible)
    - Implement string replacement ${var/pattern/string} (where
      pattern is an extended glob pattern), like GNU bash; like
      with the substring accessor (${var: x: y}) mksh implements
      almost all corner cases (and double slash), but do not
      handle trimming arrays yet
    - Side note: You can now, as a consequence of the two items
      above, write, for instance, x=${x//foo*bar/baz} instead of
      the more complicated x=$(sed -e 's/foo.*bar/baz/g' <<<"$x")
      or the mksh R32 and before idiom x=$(print -r -- "$x" | sed
      -e 's/foo.*bar/baz/g') – be sure to check $KSH_VERSION first
      though
    - Use the new Mdocdate RCS keyword in the manual page mksh(1)
      as well; since this is not portable in tmac.doc especially to
      GNU groff, prepend a seven-liner implementing it to the .Dd macro
    - Fix a mistake in using the .Nm macro in the manual page
    - Make Build.sh and the generated test.sh more chatty about what
      they’re doing and what versions (aids debugging build logs)
    - Update the dot.mkshrc sample and make it more portable; it requi-
      res mksh R33 or above now though due to use of special functions
    - Enhance the website, especially the section about official
      testing: now, the tests are split into tests done by us via
      Makefile (MirOS only), Build.sh (portably), porting frameworks,
      with arc4random.c added, tests by others via Build.sh, via
      packaging frameworks, failed tests; more links
    - Note: the “vi” editing mode is code of historical value and, at
      the moment, unmaintained. It does not benefit from the fixes to
      the “emacs” editing mode (horizontal scrolling) or new features
      (bind keys that end their sequence with a tilde; UTF-8 support).
      Neither is it supported in either editing mode to bind keys that
      generate a sequence consisting of more than just a prefix (ESC,
      ^X, or ESC [), another octet and (“emacs” only) an optional tilde
      (but this might come in the future). This is explicitly mentioned
      here due to a user inquiry.
    ‣ This means that pdksh bugs #190566, #246530, #297234 specifically
      do not apply to mksh and users might want to switch
  * Have the OS and compiler version appear in the build logs (debugging)

mksh (32.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; summary of changes:
    - Checks for symbol declarations are compile time checks, not link
      time checks; fixes (optional) arc4random on AIX
    - Widen the range for array indicēs to the entire unsigned 32-bit
      integer range (enough for ino_t on BSD); wrap numbers outside of
      that range into it for simplicity (e.g. foo[-1] = foo[4294967295])
    - Fix an internal error when using a pipeline as co-process
    - Relax requirement on compilation environment to provide certain types
    - Optimise some more for size (struct padding; functions → macros, …)

mksh (31.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release; summary of changes:
    - Support pcc (the ragge version of the Portable C Compiler)
    - Add pushd/popd/dirs functions (csh) and precmd/chpwd hooks (zsh)
      to dot.mkshrc which now requires readlink(1) with -f; requested
      by many (e.g. some Gentoo users; XTaran of symlink.ch)
    - Enable colour escapes in dot.mkshrc since almost nobody groks how
      to do it right from the manual
    - Remove -DMKSH_NEED_MKNOD checks from Build.sh, people should use
      the HAVE_MKNOD environment variable
    - Implement parallel make in Build.sh (not used by Debian)
    - Fix another busy-loop spinning problem introduced by an icc warning,
      thanks to spaetzle@freewrt.org for keeping to bug me to look for it,
      as it affected GNU/Linux most, followed by Solaris, rarely BSD
    - Improve standard integer type detection in Build.sh
    - Cleanups in code, build script and manual page
    - Clean up Build.sh and “test … -o …” doesn’t exist in Bourne
    - Detect if the non-standard u_int32_t type, which was unfortunately
      used by the OpenBSD project in designing the standard arc4random(3)
      API, is present (which it isn’t on Solaris), and, if not, emulate
      it using the standard uint32_t (ISO C99) from <stdint.h>, which we
      fake as needed (if the standard integer types are not present, e.g.
      on PW32 and OSF/1); change mksh as well as the arc4random.c
      contribution to not use these non-standard types
    - Remove unused types from the faked <stdint.h> file
  * Integrate updated translation into portugués, Closes: #444218
  * debian/rules: wait for script(1) to return, in case it runs

    - Autoscan for uint32_t, u_int etc. presence
    - Fix some memory leaks, mostly by NetBSD® via OpenBSD
    - The “unset” builtin always returns zero, even if the variable was
      already unset, as per SUSv3 (reported by Arkadiusz Miskiewicz via
      pld-linux and oksh)
    - In tab-completion, escape the question mark, reminded by cbiere@tnf
    - Fix a busy-loop problem, Debian #296446 via oksh

  * New upstream release (R31); summary of changes:
    - Support the TenDRA compiler (possibly also Ten15, not tried)
    - Begin supporting Fabrice Bellard’s Tiny C Compiler (tcc on Debian
      cannot link due to duplicate symbols in GNU libc, thus unfinished)
    - Improve some mirtoconf checks (most notably, mknod(2) and macros)
    - Add new emacs editing command “clear-screen” (ESC ^L) as requested
      by D. Adam Karim <archite@midnightbsd.org>
    - Support building for MidnightBSD
    - Add new shell alias “source”, semantics like the GNU bash builtin
    - Add new shell option “set -o arc4random”, controlling whether
      rand(3) or arc4random(3) is used for the $RANDOM value, use
      arc4random_pushb(3) if it exists
    - Add new builtin “rename” (just calls rename(2) on its arguments),
      for rescue purposes (like renaming ld.so)
    - Fix the inofficial OpenBSD port, from D. Adam “Archite” Karim, 10x
    - Disable the less(1) history file by default (privacy issues) in the
      sample dot.mkshrc file; mention other things in etc_profile (the
      additional sample mentioned on the mksh website)
  * Put the arc4random.c file under version control
  * Clean up the copyright file (rm commented stuff from Debian experimental)
  * Mention /dev/tty is also needed in debian/rules pre-build echo

mksh (30.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream major release (R30); summary of changes:
    - Build on and for Solaris, Linux and MirBSD with Sun's C compiler
    - No longer build a statically linked shell by default; do not try,
      do not provide any means; user has to use LDFLAGS instead.
    - Remove some probably dead mirtoconf checks
    - Remove commented out -fwhole-program --combine check and still
      active -fno-tree-vrp bug workaround thing, the latter because the
      bug seems to only appear for functions that also exist as a builtin
      (which was declared with the nonnull attribute)
    - Fix a long-standing typo, 10x moritz@obsd
    - Prefer more common signal names (SIGCHLD) over uncommon ones (SIGCLD)
    - Quieten gcc and support SUNpro 5.8 on Solaris 10 on sparc64
    - Optimise signal handling and detection; enable compilers whose
      præprocessor doesn't have -dD to generate list of signals
    - Optimise mirtoconf meta-checks for persistent history etc.
    - Fix a bug preventing manual page generation on Solaris
    - Add support for the Intel® C Compiler and quieten it a little;
      fix a few minor buglets (mostly type conversion) its too verbose
      warnings show, as well as some errno ab-/mis-use
    - Remove support for honouring the CPP environment variable;
      $CC -E - is simply used instead in the places where $CPP was used
      previously, because that was used in other places already, and
      to prevent it from behaving differently from the $CC used
    - If a file called arc4random.c is lying around in the source directory
      at mirtoconf time, scan for <sys/sysctl.h> and use the file if
      arc4random(3) isn't found otherwise. From Debian GNU/kFreeBSD.
    - If the basename of argv[0] starts with “sh”, activate FPOSIX early,
      preventing some typical ksh aliases from being defined
    - If FPOSIX, don't pre-define aliases (except integer and local) to
      benefit operating environments that never heard of the great Korn Shell…
    - #if defined(MKSH_SMALL) || defined(MKSH_NOVI) disable the vi editing mode
    - Don't try to execute ELF, a.out, COFF, gzip or MZ binaries
    - Can be built on HP-UX (PA-RISC and IA64) with gcc or HP C/aC++
    - Support x=(a b c) bash-like array initialisation
    - Support ${foo:2:3} bash-like substring expansion
    - Many mirtoconf improvements, fixes; speed-up; better portability
    - Enable compilation using Microsoft C/C++ Standard Compiler
    - Add UWIN build target using various compilers with the cc wrapper
    - Fix struct padding mistakes uncovered by the Microsoft compiler
    - Fix double initialisation / unused value assignment errors
      unveiled by Borland C++ Builder 5.5
    - Fix superfluous code detected by gcc 4.2
    - Fix large file support for OSes that require CPPFLAGS contains
      -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 – it was detected but not actually used
      in the build; thanks to hondza for the problem report!
    - Give the lexer a bigger state stack if !MKSH_SMALL
    - Prepare for addition of make(1)-style search/replace operations;
      correct the code for other substitution expansion operations
    - Default $CC to cc not gcc, this is no non-unix-ware ☺
    - Support AIX with gcc and xlC; clean up code to warning-free
    - Prefer well-known signal names to alphabetically earlier ones
    - Fix a bug delivering ERR and EXIT pseudo-signals to traps combined
      with “set -e”, thanks Clint Pachl and Otto Moerbeek for the hint
  * Update German translation, Closes: #428590 (still pending resolution

  * New upstream formal release; summary of changes:
    - portability fixes (darwin, hp-ux, solaris, new port to aix)
    - size optimisation if utf-8 mode is assumed by default (not in Debian)
    - small manual page fixes
    - Do not scan for and use "-fwhole-program --combine" because it's the
      cause of at least http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=408850
      and breakage with FORTIFY_SOURCE on SuSE; thanks to Pascal Bleser (yaloki),
      Marcus Rueckert (darix), Martin Zobel-Helas, Steve Langasek (vorlon) for
      tracking this bug down in two different places; Closes: #421518
  * remove the possible workaround mentioned in the changes for 28.9.20070309
    because the problem has been solved upstream

 -- Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de>  Mon, 30 Apr 2007 21:53:12 +0000

mksh (29.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream formal release; summary of changes:
    + a plethora of UTF-8 fixes:
    - display control characters U+0080..U+009F the same as U+0000..U+001F,
      i.e. a caret followed by the character corresponding to the control
      character XOR 0x0040, treat their width as 2 subsequently
    - fix crash (cpu hog in spinning loop) on meta-tab + backspace
    - strip off UTF-8 byte order mark at beginning of input
    - if a BOM is encountered, switch on utf-8 command line editing mode
    + in utf-8 command line editing mode, handle invalid input more strictly:
    - if in x_literal(), i.e. the ^V mode (bind to quote), allow it as before
    - if it's the start of an invalid multibyte sequence, reject with a beep
      (e.g. if trying to input latin1 chars)
    - if it's an invalid or partial multibyte sequence, reject silently
    -> this makes command line editing much more robust
    + other bug fixes:
    - in a rare condition (error path), the wrong function was used to copy
      a string that could contain embedded NULs (encoded format), leading to
      memory access past malloc'd area
    - in the same path, fix an out-of-bounds access inherited from openbsd ksh
    -> discovered on Debian GNU/Linux experimental ia64, glibc 2.5-beta
    + new functionality:
    - if execve() fails, before passing the file to $EXECSHELL, open it and
      try to parse a shebang line; if we find one, do it ourselves
      (the good part of this is that it even works when there is a UTF-8 BOM
      before the shebang magic sequence)
    - for shebang processing, not only NUL or LF but also CR terminate the line
    - enhancements to the "dot.mkshrc" sample file (which is now regularily
      used upstream as well)
    - if the internal function exchild() fails, don't just tell the user that
      it failed, tell him WHAT failed (unless -DMKSH_SMALL)
    + code cleanup changes:
    - remove unused functions, macros
    - fix typos, errors, etc.
    - shut up gcc 4.1.2 warnings
    - Build.sh cygwin vs unix cleanup/simplification
    - shrink manual page to 39 DIN A4 pages when output as postscript
    + reliability changes:
    - if $CC supports -fstack-protector-all, add it to $CFLAGS
    - if $CC supports -fno-tree-vrp, add it to $CFLAGS if $CC is subject to
      the bug http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30785
    - add mirtoconf check for "large file support", requested by bsiegert@,
      needed for some *nix, idea and implementation hints from GNU autoconf
    - add zsh workaround to Build.sh, just in case (untested)
  * disable the possible workaround mentioned in the changes for 28.9.20070309
    because I was unable to verify/test it; maybe it only applies to the glibc
    in experimental anyway, we'll see to that later
  * add a comment about the regression test needing openpty() to debian/rules
  * remove non-ASCII (i.e. high-bit7) characters from diff/changelog
  * slightly enhance package description
  * properly indent homepage link in description, thanks KiBi (kfreebsd team)

    - remove the use of GNU screen to run the testsuite again
    - use 'script' from the Debian bsdutils package) to run the
      regression test suite within a controlling tty
    (this is experimental)
  * New upstream release candidate; summary of changes:
    - Work around Solaris /usr/ucb/tr, Solaris /usr/xpg4/bin/tr,
      Minix 3 /usr/bin/tr, and SUSv3 deficiencies
    - Fix compilation on more platforms (Interix, Cygwin, Linux 2.0 libc5,
      Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, Debian GNU/HURD, ...)
    - Use autoconfiguration for persistent history stuff
    - Fix the code (add "const" in like 1001 places) to be able to
      build without -Wno-cast-qual (hope it's safe now)
    - Optionally use const-debugging versions of strchr(3), strstr(3),
      to work around deficiencies in ANSI C
    - The above directly led to our own strcasestr(3) implementation
      for OSes which don't have it
    - Optimise dot.mkshrc macros
    - Remove shadowing warnings for more OSes
    - Support old ash(1) versions in Build.sh
    - Support use of _NSIG for NSIG
    - Optimise ctags(1) generation
  * Honour ${CC}

mksh (28.9.20070216) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream development snapshot; summary of changes:
    - if MKSH_SMALL, don't include -T support and don't scan
      for revoke() function
    - new #ifdef MKSH_NEED_MKNOD to embed mknod(8) even if
      MKSH_SMALL is enabled
    - do not scan for revoke() on GNU/Linux since it always fails
    - simplify GNU/Linux CPPFLAGS and use them for GNU/HURD and
      GNU/kFreeBSD (tested on Debian experimental, thanks to the
      ftbfs.de autobuilder and Michael "azeem" Banck)
    - fix the 'bind' (no args) builtin output
    - new #ifdef MKSH_ASSUME_UTF8 to not check setlocale() and
      nl_langinfo(CODESET) if we want to always enable the utf-8
      command line editing mode
    - tabcomplete a newline to singlequote+newline+singlequote
      instead of backslash+newline which is eaten; thanks to
      Thomas E. "TGEN" Spanjaard for noticing
    - remove shebang line from check.pl which isn't +x anyway
  * control: add ed(1) as suggested package, for history editing
  * control, rules: add GNU screen as build dependency; use it to
    provide a tty to the regression test suite so it can succeed in
    the Debian autobuilding mechanism; tested on i386-linux, i386-hurd
  * control: only the emacs editing mode is utf-8 safe (fix description)

  * New upstream development snapshot; summary of changes:
    - autoconfify compiler flags, c preprocessor
    - add option to avoid pulling in getpwnam(3) in !MKSH_SMALL
    - scan for certain headers, types; improve portability
    - speed up autoconfiguration process in failure case
    - finally fix static vs dynamic linking issues
    - fix manpage (.Nm macro) glitch with GNU nroff 1.15
    - improve auto-detection of which regression tests are valid
    - mention failure to revoke(2) is possibly insecure
  * As a result of upstream changes, simplify debian/rules
  * Testsuite failues are not fatal for Debian
  * Please note: this is a development snapshot from CVS, but this
    one is deemed "gamma stadium" (i.e. more stable than beta, and
    ready for public consumption by a broad mass of testers).

mksh (28.9.20070117) experimental; urgency=low

  * Add -fwrapv to Debian CFLAGS to prevent unexpected code behaviour
  * New upstream development snapshot; summary of changes:
    - Don't expand ~foo/ if MKSH_SMALL, spares getpwnam(3) call
    - Fix and autoconfify signal list generation
    - Build.sh now uses $TARGET_OS as "uname -s" output for cross builds
    - Set flag for regression tests that can't succeed if MKSH_SMALL
    - Don't even check for setlocale(3) if MKSH_SMALL, unless overridden
      by user / build environment
    - Scan for C Preprocessor, use $CPP if $CC -E fails
    - Fix possible nil pointer dereferences and signal name mismatches
    - Scan for __attribute__((...)) and -std=gnu99 (req'd on Solaris 10)
    - Correct $LDSTATIC logic, unbreak -d, don't let the user override (or
      need to) $SRCS, $sigseen
    - Simplify TIOCGWINSZ handling, no need to catch SIGWINCH any more;
      window size changes are processed after input line editing ends (i.e.
      the lines are entered or ESC # (emacs mode) is pressed) and at
      startup; ^L (redraw) can't change window size on the fly
    - Add -fwrapv to standard CFLAGS, just to be safe, like with when I
      added -fno-strict-aliasing; this is pending a bug fix in gcc, see
      GCC PR#30477
  * Please note: this is a development snapshot from CVS as well;

mksh (28.9.20061121) experimental; urgency=low

  * Add -fno-strict-aliasing to default CFLAGS, as per upstream suggestion
  * New upstream development snapshot; summary of changes:
    - Fix portability of regression tests using fgrep(1), twice
    - Fix description of $RANDOM in manual page
    - Fix build under OpenSolaris Build 47 (reported in IRC)
    - Use easier __RCSID() stuff from MirOS #9-current
    - Don't shebang with spaces in test.sh creation
    - Remove -fno-strength-reduce from default CFLAGS, the compiler bug was
      fixed between gcc 2.7.2 and gcc 2.7.2.1...
    - Avoid unaligned memory access causing SIGBUS on IA-64 on Debian
    - Convert to autoconf-style check for function and header file existence
      of <sys/param.h>, arc4random(3), arc4random_push(3), setlocale(3) and
      LC_CTYPE, nl_langinfo(3) and CODESET, getmode(3) and setmode(3),
      strcasestr(3), and strlcpy(3)
    - Add set -o utf8-hack aka mksh -U which changes the Emacs editing mode
      to an experimental CESU-8 aware multibyte mode (not implemented using
      wide chars unless internally needed; does not require OS support); check
      setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") and nl_langinfo(CODESET) if found to auto-enable
      utf-8 mode in interactive shells
    - Simplify and clean up code; try to remove or replace function calls by
      smaller equivalents; spot a few non-fatal off-by-one errors
    - If Build.sh is called with -DMKSH_SMALL in the CPPFLAGS environment
      variable, the built-in mknod(8) will not be included, and other
      functionality and verbose usage messages will be excluded; some macros
      will be turned into functions to save space and to check if the
      utf8-hack should be enabled, nl_langinfo(3) is not called. The -T
      option to mksh(1) and persistent history are not supported.
    - Hand-optimise the code to be small, even in the normal build
    - Unbreak the -d option to Build.sh
    - Check for cc options -Wno-error, -fwhole-program --combine, and (if
      MKSH_SMALL) -fno-inline and use them if they don't fail
    - The autoconf-style ("mirtoconf") checks have been enhanced,
      improved and be made more verbose by default
    - Rewrite a few functions both to save space and to simplify/unify the
      code; also spotted a few bugs in existing (inherited) code
    - Fix format string mistakes and wrong function and data prototypes
    - Correct zero-padding for right-justified strings; add regression test
    - EXECSHELL is now ${EXECSHELL:-/bin/sh} again
    - Remove duplicate code if feasible; rewrite remaining code to solve all
      use cases, or use standard library functions such as qsort(3); rework
      the ctypes and chtypes stuff, get rid of libc/ctype.h
    - Change the eaccess() code to not use setreuid(2) and friends, like
      OpenBSD ksh and apparently pdksh. I'm not too sure about the
      implications, except that they only affect setuid shell scripts.
    - Use setresuid(2) and friends, and setgroups(3) and <grp.h> instead
      of seteuid(2), setuid(2) etc. on operating systems that support them
    - Work around (i.e. remove) all but two -Wcast-qual issues
    - Work around a bug in the GNU implementation of the Berkeley mdoc macros
      which comes with GNU groff (only visible in MirOS with groff -mgdoc, but
      shows on other operating systems), discovered by crib in IRC
    - $RANDOM is always an unsigned 15-bit decimal integer, for all Korn shell
      derivates; idea from twkm in IRC
    - Improve/correct description of typeset command in manpage, and
      implementation of typeset -p in mksh
    - Remove the non-standard emacs-usemeta and vi-show8 shell options, assume
      the user either has a 7-bit environment, an 8-bit clean terminal, or a
      UTF-8 environment (preferred), and the dummy sh option
    - Build.sh fix for conservative (old) versions of gcc; help Debian
  * Mention UTF-8 support in the Debian control file's Description field
  * PLEASE NOTE: this is not intended to be uploaded into testing, because
    it is based upon a CVS checkout of mksh-current, and not of a formal
    release. The "mksh 28.9.yyyymmdd" series is based upon CVS snapshots of
    mksh-current (mksh R29-beta), and subject to changes. This part of the
    changelog might differ in the following mksh-29.0-1 upload to Debian.
    This code is *not* well-tested and may have been broken on various other
    operating systems and maybe architectures; it may have introduced further
    memory leaks. It is recommended to only use it to evaluate mksh's recent

  * sample file (dot.mkshrc) is now in upstream
  * New upstream release; summary of (Debian user relevant) changes:
    - Fix some more -Wchar-subscripts
    - Adjust manual page to the fact that mksh can be used as
      /bin/sh although it's not specifically designed to
    - Correct and enhance book citation list in the manual page
    - Bring back the "version" editing command in both emacs and
      vi modes, at ESC ^V like AT&T ksh93r+
    - Fix typo which resulted in the wrong names for signals being
      printed (error codes were used instead) on GNU/Linux, Solaris
      and GNU/Cygwin. Ease changing signame/siglist sources.
    - Some more code, manual page, build system and regression test
      changes, cleanup and redundancy removal
    - Merge a few OpenBSD changes, yielding better multiline prompt
      support and textual improvements in the manual page
    - Adjust $PS1 sizing, printing, and redrawal routines
      for mksh behaviour and single- and multiline prompts
    - For the AT&T $PS1 hack (second char = CR), do not
      output the delimiting characters any more, even if they
      are printable - fixes platforms without non-printable
      characters (Interix, Cygwin) and prompt size calculation
    - Calculate length of prompt in lines and columns-of-last-line
      instead of using some tricks to skip the beginning of the prompt,
      resulting in correct redrawing of prompts with ANSI colour codes
    - Correct displaying of prompts spanning more than one line
      and/or with embedded newlines or carriage returns; correct
      documentation of $PS1 and the redraw editing command
    - Change one of the testsuite "expected failure" tests from bug
      to feature - it might actually be required by BSD make
    - Enable to bind key sequences which consist of the usual optional
      one or two praefices and the control character, as well as an
      optional trailing tilde (if the trailing character is not a tilde,
      it's processed as usual, but processing of the editing command is
      postponed until after the trailing character has been read)
    - Bind the NetBSD(R) wscons (vt220 / wsvt25), GNU screen and
      XFree86(R) (xterm-xfree86) "home", "end"
      and "delete" keys to ^A, ^E and ^D, respectively, except
      that "delete" does not act as logoff switch
    - Make sure ^T is bound to 'transpose' as documented
      (bug spotted by hondza)
    - Remove the 'stuff' and 'stuff-reset' editing commands
    - Correct the manual page regarding the 'abort' command, its
      interaction with 'search-history' and how to exit the latter
    - Bring back "set -o posix" turning off 'braceexpand'
    - Mention IRC support channel and mailing list in manual page
    - Make the "last command of a pipeline is executed in a
      subshell" issue a dependable mksh feature
    - Improve regression test comments and a few tests
    - If $RANDOM is generated from arc4random(3), display at
      most 31 bits of it like nbsh(1), instead of only 15 bits.
