+
+ * README: Update location of patched M4 distribution.
+
+2004-05-30 Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>
+
+ Don't assume the C++ compiler takes the same arguments as the C compiler
+ (trivial change).
+ * configure.ac (O0CXXFLAGS): New var.
+ * tests/atlocal.in (CXXFLAGS): Use it.

+
+ Fix some "make check" problems with C++ reported by
+ Albert Chin-A-Young for Tru64 C++ in this thread:
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2004-05/msg00049.html
+
+ * m4/cxx.m4 (BISON_TEST_FOR_WORKING_CXX_COMPILER): Check for std::cerr.
+ * tests/actions.at (_AT_CHECK_PRINTER_AND_DESTRUCTOR):
+ Output to a .cc file for C++, not to a .c file.
+ * tests/calc.at (AT_CHECK_CALC): Likewise.
+ * tests/regression.at (AT_CHECK_DANCER): Likewise.
+ * tests/local.at (AT_COMPILE_CXX): Default to OUTPUT.cc, not OUTPUT.c.
+
+2004-05-28 Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>
+
+ * tests/calc.at, tests/actions.at: Workaround for SGI
+ C++ compiler. (trivial change)
+

+
+ Spent a few hours checking out which prerequisite versions the
+ current sources actually require. I went all the way back to
+ Gettext 0.10.40, Automake 1.4, and Autoconf 2.57 and investigated
+ a seemingly endless set of combinations of versions more recent
+ than that. The bottom line is that the current sources require
+ fairly recent versions of the build tools, and it'll be some work
+ to change this.
+ * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Increase from 2.58 to 2.59.
+ (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Increase from 1.7 to 1.8.
+ (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Increase from 0.11.5 to 0.12.
+ Add comments explaining why those particular versions are
+ currently needed.
+
+ * src/parse-gram.y (lloc_default): Rewrite to avoid compiler bug
+ in SGI MIPSpro 7.4.1m. Problem reported by Albert Chin-A-Young in
+ <http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2004-05/msg00037.html>.
+
+ * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.58, since 2.57 doesn't work
+ (it fails with a Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4 diagnostic).
+
+2004-05-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Lower it from 0.14.1 to
+ 0.11.5. Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+ * bootstrap: Remove gettext version checking.
+
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary): Also mention that %union
+ can depend on prerequisite types. Problem reported by Tim
+ Van Holder.
+
+2004-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * README: Mention GNU m4 1.4 bugs and Akim's patched version.
+ * README-alpha: Don't tell people not to package this.
+
+ * bootstrap: Don't assume $(...) works; use `...` instead.
+ Problem reported by Paul Hilfinger. Also, diagnose non-GNU
+ gettext better.
+
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary, Bison Options): Clarify what's
+ put into the -d output file, and mention what to do if YYSTYPE is
+ defined as a macro.
+
+2004-05-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ Undo change made earlier today: it caused autopoint to not bring
+ in ABOUT-NLS. Ouch. Instead, substitute our own diagnostic for
+ autopoint's.
+
+ * bootstrap: Check that gettext version matches what's in
+ configure.ac. Warn users to ignore robots.txt ERROR 404.
+ * bootstrap: Undo today's earlier change (logged below).
+ * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Likewise.
+
+ The gettext version checking is causing more trouble than it's
+ curing; remove it. Problem reported by Paul Hilfinger.
+
+ * bootstrap: Issue a warning that one can expect a message
+ 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT is used, but not AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION'.
+ * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Remove.

+
+ Ensure that the C++ compiler used for testing actually works on a
+ simple test program; if not, skip the C++-related tests. Problem
+ reported by Vin Shelton in:
+ http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2004-05/msg00026.html
+
+ * m4/cxx.m4: New file.
+ * configure.ac (BISON_TEST_FOR_WORKING_CXX_COMPILER): Add.
+ * tests/atlocal.in (BISON_CXX_WORKS): Add.
+ * tests/local.at (AT_COMPILE_CXX): Use it.
+
+2004-05-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/glr.c (yylloc): Output this macro even if locations are not
+ being generated, as the GLR parser needs it even in that case.
+ Problem reported by Troy A. Johnson
+ <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=195946>.
+
+ * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Update to 1.875e.
+

* NEWS: Version 1.875d.
