version 1.10
* NEWS: Record release date.
2018-12-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
build: enable -Wunreachable-code
* configure.ac (nw): Remove -Wunreachable-code from the list of
disabled warnings, now that all offending statements have been removed.
maint: remove unreachable code
Problem reported by Oracle Developer Studio 12.6.
In the old days we needed a return statement at the end of
the gzip main function to pacify traditional 'lint', but
lint checkers nowadays are smarter.
* gzip.c (main):
* zip.c (file_read): Remove unreachable code.
2018-12-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: use a slightly cleaner expression
* gzip.c (do_list): Simplify an expression:
- int positive_off_t_width = INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (off_t) - 2;
+ int positive_off_t_width = INT_STRLEN_BOUND (off_t) - 1;
2018-12-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: avoid build failure with --enable-gcc-warnings and latest gcc
* gzip.c (do_list): There was a loop to compute the maximum width
of a decimal positive off_t value. Replace it with assignment to a
constant. Noticed because gcc 9.0.0 20181219 warned about its use
as a printf format-width value.
(OFF_T_MAX): Remove now-unused definition.
2018-12-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: improve a comment
* trees.c (flush_block): Fix grammar/spelling in a comment.
maint: update gnulib to latest; also update bootstrap and init.sh
build: make the autoconf-2.63 requirement explicit
* configure.ac: AC_PREREQ: Require 2.63, not 2.59.
Autoconf-2.63 has been required for some time via gnulib.
This merely makes it explicit.
2018-11-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: fix use of uninitialized memory
Problem reported by Hanno Böck (Bug#33501).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* inflate.c (inflate_dynamic): Return if code is invalid.
Fix by Mark Adler.
* tests/hufts: Add test case for the bug.
2018-08-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* gzip.c (remove_output_file): Fix typo.
gzip: fix bug in signal-handling fix
Problem reported by Johannes Przybilla (Bug#32375#26).
* gzip.c (volatile_strcpy): Source is now pointer-to-volatile too.
(remove_output_file): Copy remove_ofname to a private nonvolatile
copy so that it can be passed to xunlink safely.
2018-08-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
Fix some theoretical races in signal handling
Problem reported by Johannes Przybilla (Bug#32375).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add sigaction.
* gzip.c (SA_NOCLDSTOP, sigprocmask, sigset_t)
(siginterrupt) [!SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Remove; Gnulib not supplies these.
(remove_ofname): New var.
(volatile_strcpy): New function.
(create_outfile): Use it.
(install_signal_handlers, abort_gzip_signal): Assume sigaction.
(remove_output_file): New arg SIGNALS_ALREADY_BLOCKED.
All uses changed. Avoid unnecessary (and racy) call
to sigprocmask if this new arg is set.
(abort_gzip_signal): Assume C89 or better for signal handler type.
* gzip.h (RETSIGTYPE): Remove.
* lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore:
Add files brought in by Gnulib sigaction module. Sort.
2018-08-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: port better to mingw again
Problem reported by Bdale Garbee (Bug#32305#8).
* gzip.c (do_chown): Use HAVE_FCHOWN || HAVE_CHOWN,
which is configured, instead of DO_CHOWN, which is not.
2018-08-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: make the output more reproducible
Problem reported by Bernhard M. Wiedemann (Bug#32342).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* doc/gzip.texi (Overview, Invoking gzip): Document this.
* gzip.c (get_input_size_and_time): New function,
which implements the change.
(treat_stdin, treat_file): Use it.
* tests/reproducible: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2018-07-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: port better to mingw
Problem reported by Bdale Garbee for Debian
* gzip.c (do_chown): Don't assume uid_t and gid_t.
2018-07-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: update gnulib to latest; also update bootstrap and init.sh
2018-06-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: remove -Wformat-truncation=2 to avoid avoid false-positive
* configure.ac (GNULIB_WARN_CFLAGS): Add -Wformat-truncation=2,
to disable it when building gnulib with --enable-gcc-warnings.
This avoids what looks like a false positive from GCC 9:
strerror_r.c: In function 'rpl_strerror_r':
strerror_r.c:453:35: error: 'Unknown error ' directive output \
truncated writing 14 bytes into a region of size 2 \

misc: update --version copyright
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in, zgrep.in:
* zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Update copyright year in --version output to 2018.
This part of the year-number update isnât automated yet.

version 1.9
* NEWS: Record release date.
2018-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzexe: port to macOS mktemp
Problem reported by Jeffrey Walton (Bug#30000).
* gzexe.in, zdiff.in, zgrep.in:
Donât assume that mktemp works when given no arguments,
as this is not true for macOS. Instead, use a syntax
that should work with coreutils, NetBSD, and macOS.
While weâre in the neighborhood, be more consistent about how program
names are used in temporary file names. Also, watch out for TMPDIR
values that are not absolute file names, since they can cause problems
(e.g., leading "-").
2018-01-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: update gnulib and copyright dates for 2018
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
* all files: Run "make update-copyright".
2017-12-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2017-11-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: zforce and zmore exit status cleanup
Problem reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
* zforce.in, zmore.in: On failure, exit with status 1 instead of
with whatever failing status that printf or mv exited with.
2017-11-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzexe: ensure file always exists
* gzexe.in: When in a filesystem that does not support symlinks,
use rm+cp rather than mv to make backups, so that the argument
file always exists.
2017-11-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2017-11-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
gzexe: work even without the ability to make a hard link
* gzexe.in: When ln -f fails to create a "~"-style backup,
fall back to using mv -f.
Reported by Bruno Haible in http://debbugs.gnu.org/29266
2017-11-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: make each generated script unwritable
* Makefile.am (.in): Ensure that each generated script is unwritable.
This makes it less likely that someone (even me) will mistakenly
modify one of those generated files.
2017-11-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
zless, znew: exit 1 upon --help or --version write failure
* zless.in: Exit 1 upon --help or --version write error.
* znew.in: Likewise.
2017-11-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: script diagnostics status cleanup
Problem reported by Bruno Haible (Bug#29266#20).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in:
* zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Use printf instead of echo if the argument might contain â\â, at
least in theory. Donât assume printf exits with status 1 on
failure; it might be some other positive status.
* gzexe.in: Use printf consistently instead of echo, and
proscribe it instead of echo.
tests: donât be so strict about timestamps
* tests/timestamp: Weâve had many false alarms about timestamps
that are not gzip problems, but instead are problems with âtouchâ.
Attempt to work around them by not trusting âtouchâ so much.
Problems and parts of solutions proposed by Bruno Haible.
2017-11-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2017-11-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
gnulib: update to latest
maint: use noreturn, not ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN
Use gnulib's stdnoreturn module so we can include
<stdnoreturn.h> and the "noreturn" helper macro, thus
replacing the definition and uses of ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add stdnoreturn.
* gzip.h (ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Remove definition.
Include stdnoreturn.h and use "noreturn" for each
ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN-adorned function declaration.
* gzip.c (do_exit, try_help): Use "noreturn".
tests: unpack-invalid: correct and clean up a test
* tests/unpack-invalid: There was a logic error that would have
caused this test to ignore a failure if first iteration of the
loop set fail=1 and the second one reset it to 0. Also, use
"returns_ 1 ...", to require an exit status of 1.
2017-11-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: diagnose out-of-range MTIME
This seems to be the problem reported by Bruno Haible for GNU/Hurd
i386 with touch 8.26 and glibc 2.24 (Bug#29033#20).
* NEWS: Document this.
* gzip.c (get_method): If MTIME is out of range for
this platform, warn and substitute the nearest in-range
value, instead of silently ignoring it.
(do_list): Remove no-longer-needed test for unknown time stamp.
2017-11-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
misc: diagnose year-2038 configuration problems
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add year2038.
* m4/.gitignore: Add year2038.m4[
maint: remove IMPORT_FROM_GETTEXT
* bootstrap.conf (IMPORT_FROM_GETTEXT): Remove.
This is a relic from older Gnulib, and has no effect now.
2017-10-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests/unpack-valid: port to printf that do not grok hex
Many versions of printf do not handle hexadecimal in a format string,
so this test would fail.
* tests/init.cfg (hex_printf_): Copied from grep's tests/init.cfg.
* tests/unpack-valid: Use hex_printf_.
Reported by Bruno Haible in https://bugs.gnu.org/29033#26
gnulib: update to latest; also update tests/init.sh from gnulib
gzip: fix bug with any upper case custom ('-S'-specified) suffix
Any user-specified suffix with an upper case
letter would fail to match desired file.
* gzip.c (get_suffix): First, arrange to have only one return
point rather than two. Put a lower-cased (just-malloc'd) copy
of z_suffix in the suffix vector, and free it before returning.
* tests/upper-suffix: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS: Mention it.

gzip: port zdiff, zless to Busybox
Problem reported by Denys Zagorui (Bug#26088).
* tests/zdiff: Check that diff uses POSIX-format output.
* zless.in (less_version): Don't exit merely because 'less -V'
fails; instead, assume 'less' is compatible with an old version of
the original 'less'. Busybox 'less -V' fails, but apparently its
'less' works anyway somehow.

2016-08-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: fix gzip-specific syntax-check rule
* cfg.mk (sc_gzip_copyright_check): This rule had two problems.
It was failing erroneously (the copyright date in gzip.c is fine),
yet it was complaining. The first problem is that the rule's
diagnostic mentioned the wrong file: lib/version-etc.c, rather than
./gzip.c. The second problem is that it specified this file name
via "in_files" rather than the "in_vc_files" variable.

gzip: drop mentions of Amiga, VMS
These platforms were not supported anyway, and their code was
suffering from bitrot. This patch may also fix some file name
glitches on MS-Windowsish platforms.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add dosname.
* gzip.c: Include dosname.h.
(shorten_name, treat_dir): Use last_component rather than looking
at path separators by hand.
* tailor.h: Remove sections on porting to VMS and to Amiga,
since dosname.h doesn't support these platforms anyway.
(PATH_SEP2, PATH_SEP3, STDC_HEADERS, SUFFIX_SEP, RECORD_IO)
(HAVE_CHOWN, HAVE_LSTAT, HAVE_SYS_DIR_H, direct): Remove. All
uses removed. Many uses replaced by calls to ISSLASH and/or
last_component.

gzip: simplify by closing ourselves
This simplifies the previous fix, by avoiding the use of the
closein module. That module was problematic, as gzip normally
does not use stdio for output and never uses it for input.
Also, it is a heavyweight module, as it drags many files into lib
(c-ctype.c, c-ctype.h, closein.c, closein.h, closeout.c, closeout.h,
close-stream.c, close-stream.h, config.charset, c-strcasecmp.c,
c-strcaseeq.h, c-strcase.h, c-strncasecmp.c, fpending.c, fpending.h,
freadahead.c, freadahead.h, localcharset.c, localcharset.h, mbrtowc.c,
mbsinit.c, quotearg.c, quotearg.h, quote.h, ref-add.sin, ref-del.sin,
streq.h, wctype-h.c, wctype.in.h) and into m4 (closein.m4, closeout.m4,
close-stream.m4, codeset.m4, configmake.m4, fpending.m4, freadahead.m4,
glibc21.m4, localcharset.m4, locale-fr.m4, locale-ja.m4, locale-zh.m4,
mbrtowc.m4, mbsinit.m4, mbstate_t.m4, quotearg.m4, wctype_h.m4),
and these files are thus no longer needed.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove closein.
* gzip.c: Don't include closein.h.
(stdin_was_read): New static var.
(main): Don't use close_stdin.
Invoke finish_out to exit after outputting via stdio's stdout.
Close stdin after reading it.
Restore previous way of closing stdout.
(treat_stdin): Record that stdin was read.
(finish_out): New function.
gzip: fix bug with -l output to pipes
Problem reported by Christian Franke via Eric Blake in:
http://bugs.gnu.org/23314
* NEWS: Mention this.
* gzip.c (main): Do not close stdout twice when given -l.
Instead, -l now just fflushes stdout, so that fdatasync
can synchronize it if --synchronize is also specified.
* tests/list: New test case.

gzip: also honor GZIP=--rsyncable
* gzip.c (main): Also accept --rsyncable when it is specified
via the GZIP environment variable.
I noticed this when gzip's "make dist" failed because maint.mk
detected that gzip now honors --rsyncable, yet when it set GZIP_ENV
to include that, and that propagated via automake-generated code
to the GZIP setting used in the "make dist" rule, there, it was not
honored, and caused "make dist" to fail.

Fix typo in previous patch
Port to Solaris 11 /bin/sh
* m4/shell.m4 (AC_PROG_SHELL): Reject Solaris 11 /bin/sh.
A problem was reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe for OpenIndiana.
I reproduced a problem with different symptoms on Solaris 11.
Switching to Bash fixed it, and I hope this fixes it for
OpenIndiana too, since both problems appear to be shell-related.

gzip: port to AIX 7.1 + xlc V12.1
* inflate.c, unlzw.c, util.c: Include tailor.h after including any

gzip: port zgrep to Solaris 11.2
Problem reported by Assaf Gordon in: http://bugs.gnu.org/22900#11
* zgrep.in: Port to Solaris 11.2 /bin/sh (ksh 93u 2011-02-08),
where $? is 256+SIG when a process was killed with signal SIG, and
where 'exit 257' is equivalent to 'exit 1'. Apparently some other
sh implementations use 256+128+SIG. So, instead of using plain
'exit $?', use the equivalent of 'exit ((128 * (128 <= $?)) + $? %
128)' within the script, and use the equivalent of 'kill -$($? %
128)' at the top level if the exit status is 128 or more.
gzip: remove --__bindir
* NEWS: Document this.
* gzexe.in, gunzip.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zegrep.in:
* zfgrep.in, zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Remove support for undocumented --__bindir option. Callers can
set PATH instead; that's less error-prone. This fixes some
'make check' failures on my Solaris 11 box, which occurred
because the test scripts were mistakenly testing the installed
gzip rather than the gzip in the working directory.
* Makefile.am (.in): Don't replace bindir.
(check-local): Set PATH instead of using --__bindir.
* tests/help-version (gunzip_setuphelp, gzexe_setuphelp)
(zcat_setuphelp, zcmp_setuphelp, zdiff_setuphelp)
(zegrep_setuphelp, zfgrep_setuphelp, zforce_setuphelp)
(zgrep_setuphelp, zless_setuphelp, zmore_setuphelp)
(znew_setuphelp): Remove. All uses removed.
(lbracket_setup): Default args to empty.

Include fcntl--.h instead of fcntl-safer.h.
(RW_USER): Remove; no longer needed.
(dfname, dfd): New static vars.
(dot): New static const.
(atdir_eq, atdir_set): New functions.
(treat_file): Also fdatasync the output directory, if !keep.
(treat_file, create_outfile, open_and_stat):
Use dir fd for unlinkat and openat, if possible.

same. All callers changed.
* lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Add new gnulib files.
* tailor.h (PROTO, NO_STDIN_FSTAT, OPEN): Remove. Remove MACOS
section, as this stuff would not work anyway now, and circa 2001
Apple stopped supporting Mac OS 9 and earlier.
* zip.c: Do not include unistd.h and fcntl.h, as this file does
not directly use any symbols defined by those headers.

zless: improve gzip failure checking, and port to new -V format
Problem reported by Jaroslaw Weglinski, and LESSOPEN change
suggested by Mark Nudelman, in: http://bugs.gnu.org/16951
This doesn't fix bug 16951 entirely, as 'less' needs to be changed
too, but it's a start.
* zless.in (check_exit_status): New var.

znew: avoid denial-of-service issue
Reported by Rich Burridge in <http://bugs.gnu.org/15522>.
* znew.in: Rewrite to avoid the need for a temporary file in /tmp.
That way, we avoid the need for set -C
and worrying about denial of service.
Use touch -r and chmod --reference rather than cpmod.
Assume cp -p works, as it's now universal.
Quote 'echo' args better, while we're at it.
(warn, tmp, cpmod, cpmodarg): Remove.
(GZIP): Unset, so that we needn't test for gzip extension.
(ext): Now always '.gz'.

of it, use a shell pattern rather than 'expr', as this is more
efficient.

zgrep: handle a multi-digit context option like -15

zmore: rewrite to fix bugs and assume POSIX
Problem reported for Solaris 9 by Daniel in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2012-06/msg00007.html>.
Rather than figure out what exactly went wrong in Solaris 9
it was easier to rip out all the buggy compatibility and stty cruft.
* zmore.in: Don't use stty or trap; simply pipe the output to 'more'
and let it deal with signals and terminal control.
Use printf, not 'echo', to avoid problems with backslashes.
Don't assume ANS is not 's' in the environment.
Use a 'more'-style header instead of rolling our own style.
Paginate the header, too; the old behavior lost the header.
* NEWS, zmore.1: Document this.

zgrep: don't assume traditional behavior with signal numbers
* zgrep.in: Don't assume the exit status is the signal number plus
128, as POSIX doesn't require this. No need to kill self; exiting

than 1, not merely those in the range 129..143, as there's no need
to treat that range specially (and it's not portable anyway).

zgrep: fix shell portability bug with -f; fix mishandling of "-e -"
* tests/zgrep-f: Check for "zgrep -e -" bug, too.
* zgrep.in: Don't assume that if the shell redirects fd 6, then
this redirection is visible to the subsidiary grep. POSIX doesn't
guarantee this visibility except for file descriptors 0, 1, and 2,
and ksh does not support it. Problem reported by Thomas Schulz in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2010-11/msg00000.html>.
Also, fix a related bug: "-e -" was mishandled. These two bugs
were introduced by commit 5b54db4546b84ec97ff57a62f8ddb98faacf77f2
dated 2009-10-09.
(escape): Change the convention: do not assume that a stray X

* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in:
* zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
A script went awry when updating copyright dates in gzip's shell
scripts. It should update comments to look like "# Copyright (C)
2007, 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc." (with a set of years)
and version messages to look like "Copyright (C) 2010 Free
Software Foundation, Inc." (with just the most-recent year).
Instead, it sometimes ignored one, sometimes the other, and
typically put ranges into version messages. Fix all this stuff by
hand, using dates that I divined from the change logs (so they're
a bit more accurate than script-generated dates). We need to fix
the script before it runs in 2011.

placate stricter syntax-check, even though no one uses this file.

* configure.ac (ASCPPPOST): Backslash-escape "#" in AC_SUBST'd
variable, to keep make from seeing it as a comment-introducer.
Based on a patch by Petr Pisar.
* lib/Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Use AM_V_GEN and AM_V_at.
* lib/match.c: Don't include <config.h>.
It would impede configure-time assembler test.

do not use stat.st_mtime of a non-regular file
* gzip.c: Include "timespec.h".
(treat_stdin): Use st_mtime only from a regular file.
This matters at least on Cygwin 1.7.1-1, for which a stdin-pipe has
the mtime of /dev/null, rather than the gzip-documented-for-pipes
"current time". Reported by Denis Excoffier.

tests: exercise the fix for the decompression data-loss bug
* tests/null-suffix-clobber: New file.
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
gzip: fix a data-loss bug when decompressing with --suffix=''
* gzip.c (main): Disallow an empty --suffix=S also with -d.
Otherwise, "gzip -d -S '' F.gz" would ask if it's ok to remove the
existing file, "F.gz"; if you reply "yes", you'd lose all of that data.
Use of an empty suffix was already rejected in compression mode.
* gzip.1 (--suffix (-S)): Do not recommend to use "gunzip -S '' *".
Describe how the suffix is used when decompressing, too.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): mention the fix.
Reported by Ripduman Sohan.
tests: add ---presume-input-tty option, solely for testing

than clearing it -- and output the first magic byte.
2010-02-03 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
zgrep: terminate gracefully when a pipeline is interrupted by a signal
zgrep is not terminated gracefully when its grep/sed pipeline
is terminated by a signal. For example, a command like
zgrep -F .TH /usr/share/man/man1/*.gz | head
continues working long after the "head" process completes.
Another example, a command like
zgrep unmatched-pattern /usr/share/man/man1/*.gz
cannot be interrupted by sending a SIGQUIT with Ctrl-\ key, it outputs
zgrep: line 221: test: : integer expression expected
and goes on.
* zgrep.in: Terminate gracefully when the grep/sed pipeline is
terminated by a signal.
* tests/zgrep-signal: New test.
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tests/
(check-local): Remove the hufts-segv test from this rule.
tests: begin moving tests into their own files
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tests/stdin.
(check-local): Move the stdin check to its own file:
* tests/stdin: New script.
tests: remove unnecessary use of "path_prepend_ ."
It is unnecessary, since Makefile.am's TESTS_ENVIRONMENT setting
already adds the top build directory, and besides, is only
marginally useful when running stand-alone, since it presumes
that the script is being run from the top build directory.
* tests/helin-segv: Remove unnecessary use of path_prepend_.
* tests/memcpy-abuse: Likewise.
* tests/trailing-nul: Likewise.
* tests/zdiff: Likewise.
* tests/zgrep-f: Likewise.
tests: note that znew-k test depends on length of temp file name

gzip -d: use memcpy more often
* inflate.c (inflate_codes): Use memcpy (rather than slower
memcopy-like code) in more cases.
2010-01-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
build: do not override gnulib-provided AM_CFLAGS options
Avoid a warning from automake:
lib/Makefile.am:24: AM_CFLAGS multiply defined in condition TRUE ...
lib/gnulib.mk:30: ... `AM_CFLAGS' previously defined here
lib/Makefile.am:20: `lib/gnulib.mk' included from here
* lib/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Append $(WARN_CFLAGS) and
$(WERROR_CFLAGS), i.e., use "+=", not "=".
This was introduced via 2009-12-17 commit 0341fc22,
"build: with --enable-gcc-warnings, use -Werror",
but fortunately is not a bug, because the definition
it would have overridden was always empty.
2010-01-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
gzip -d would fail with a CRC error...
...for some inputs, and some memcpy implementations. It is possible
that an offending input has to be compressed "from FAT filesystem
(MS-DOS, OS/2, NT)", since the sole reproducer no longer evokes a
CRC error when uncompressed and recompressed on a GNU/Linux system.
Also, using an unpatched reverse-memcpy-gzip on over 100,000 inputs
on a GNU/Linux system did not turn up another reproducer.
* inflate.c (inflate_codes): Don't call memcpy with overlapping regions.
Properly detect when source and destination overlap.
* tests/memcpy-abuse: New test, to trigger misbehavior.
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* deflate.c (EQUAL): Remove definition. Use "0" at sole point of use.
build: util.c: avoid warnings about add_envopt
