*** Major changes in newlib version 1.8.1:
2
 
3
* Added check for --enable-newlib-mb configure option which defines the
4
  MB_CAPABLE macro.  Multibyte support for JIS, SJIS, and EUC-JP implemented.
5
 
6
* Reduced code size for libm modules.
7
 
8
* Replaced the BSD malloc with Doug Lea's malloc.
9
 
10
*** Major changes in newlib version 1.8.0:
11
 
12
* Added simulated signal handling functions _raise_r, _signal_r, raise, and
13
  signal except for sparc-sun-sunos*, i[3456]86-*-sco*, and a29k-*-* systems,
14
  which already provide access to signal.  The signal functionality provided
15
  does not interact with hardware generated signals.
16
 
17
* Added reentrant function rand_r from POSIX.1c.
18
 
19
* Removed _asctime, _next, _scanpoint, and _signgam fields from struct
20
  _reent.  These are no longer necessary since there are now functions
21
  that explictly support multiple threads (asctime_r, ctime_r, gamma_r,
22
  gmtime_r, lgamma_r, localtime_r, rand_r, & strtok_r).
23
 
24
 
25
*** Major changes in newlib version 1.7.0:
26
 
27
* Cross compiler target libraries are now built in a subdir of the top level
28
  build directory.
29
 
30
  Old way: build
31
                /newlib
32
                       /m68020
33
                              /m68881
34
  New way:
35
           build
36
                /m68k-coff
37
                          /m68020
38
                                 /m68881
39
 
40
  where m68020 and m68881 are multilib subdirectories
41
 
42
* m68k targets support --disable options to avoid building unwanted versions
43
  of the libraries.
44
 
45
  --disable-softfloat - don't build libc, libg++, etc. for -msoft-float
46
  --disable-m68881    - don't build libc, libg++, etc. for -m68881
47
  --disable-m68000    - don't build libc, libg++, etc. for -m68000
48
  --disable-m68020    - don't build libc, libg++, etc. for -m68020
49
 
50
  These options have *no* effect on the default libraries, so if the default
51
  is -m68020, --disable-m68020 is nilpotent.
52
 
53
* Reentrancy support in libm removed.
54
 
55
* strtok, strtol, strtoul, assert, div, ldiv, qsort, vfprintf
56
  replaced with NetBSD versions.
57
 
58
* Support for systems with 32 bit "doubles" added.
59
 
60
* unctrl added.
61
 
62
* dtoa.c updated from master dtoa.c soruces (netlib.att.com)
63
 
64
* Various bug fixes.
65
 
66
*** Major changes in newlib version 1.6.1:
67
 
68
* Added reentrant functions (asctime_r, ctime_r, gmtime_r, localtime_r,
69
and strtok_r) from POSIX.1c.
70
 
71
* Removed _asctime_r and _strtok_r functions.
