M4's output pipe was not being drained upon fatal errors during
scan_skel. As a result, broken-pipe messages from M4 were seen
on at least AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, and RHEL4, and this caused a
failure in the test suite. The problem was that, on platforms
where the default disposition for SIGPIPE is ignore instead of
terminate, M4 sometimes saw fwrite fail with errno=EPIPE and
then reported it. However, there's some sort of race condition,
because the new test group occasionally succeeded.

<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2010-02/msg00004.html>.
There were also problems with the test suite livelocking on
Tru64 5.1b. Reported by Didier Godefroy at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-05/msg00005.html>.
Switching to create_pipe_bidi suggested by Akim Demaille.
To attempt to solve both of these problems, switch to gnulib's
create_pipe_bidi and register M4 process as a slave. Along the
way, clean up file name conflict handling, which was affected by
the broken-pipe problem before the switch.
* NEWS (2.4.2): Document.
* THANKS (Didier Godefroy): Add.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add pipe.
* gnulib: Update to latest to make sure we have all the latest
fixes.
* lib/Makefile.am (libbison_a_SOURCES): Remove subpipe.h and
subpipe.c.
* po/POTFILES.in (lib/subpipe.c): Remove.
* src/files.c (compute_output_file_names): Update invocations
of output_file_name_check.
(output_file_name_check): In the case that the grammar file
would be overwritten, use complain instead of fatal, but replace
the output file name with /dev/null. Use the /dev/null solution
for the case of two conflicting output files as well because it
seems safer in case Bison one day tries to open both files at
the same time.
* src/files.h (output_file_name_check): Update prototype.
* src/output.c (output_skeleton): Use create_pipe_bidi and
wait_subprocess. Assert that scan_skel completely drains the
pipe.
* src/scan-skel.l (at_directive_perform): Update
output_file_name_check invocation.
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_CONFLICTING_OUTPUT): Check that the
grammar file actually isn't overwritten.
(Conflicting output files: -o foo.y): Update expected output.
* tests/skeletons.at (Fatal errors but M4 continues producing
output): New test group.

generate yypull_parse or yyparse unless %push-pull-parser is declared.
Discussed starting at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-12/msg00163.html>.
* data/bison.m4 (b4_pull_if): New.
* data/c.m4 (b4_identification): Define YYPULL similar to YYPUSH.
* data/push.c: Improve M4 quoting a little.
(b4_generate_macro_args, b4_parenthesize): Remove.
(yyparse): If there's a b4_prefix, #define this to b4_prefix[parse]
any time a pull parser is requested.
Don't #define this as a wrapper around yypull_parse. Instead, when
both push and pull are requested, make it a function that does that
same thing.
(yypull_parse): If there's a b4_prefix, #define this to
b4_prefix[pull_parse] when both push and pull are requested.
Don't define this as a function unless both push and pull are
requested.
Remove the yylexp argument and hard-code yylex invocation instead.
* etc/bench.pl.in (bench_grammar): Use %push-pull-parser instead of
%push-parser.
* src/getargs.c (pull_parser): New global initialized to true.

%push-pull-parser. Set push_parser = true and pull_parser = false for
%push-parser.
* src/scan-gram.l: Don't accept %push_parser as an alternative to
%push-parser since there's no backward-compatibility concern here.
Scan %push-pull-parser.
* tests/calc.at (Simple LALR(1) Calculator): Use %push-pull-parser
instead of %push-parser.
* tests/headers.at (export YYLTYPE): Make yylex static, and don't
prototype it in the module that calls yyparse.
* tests/input.at (Torturing the Scanner): Likewise.
* tests/local.at (AT_PUSH_IF): Check for %push-pull-parser as well.
the earlier change today), m4/intl.m4, m4/intldir.m4. This gives
us a slightly cleaner distribution, and also works.
* m4/.cvsignore: Add inline.m4, wint_t.m4 to accommodate recent
gnulib changes.
* bootstrap: Sync from coreutils, except add support for gnulib_files.
* bootstrap.conf: New file.
(gnulib_modules): Add configmake, inttypes, unistd.
(XGETTEXT_OPTIONS): Add complain, complain_at,
fatal, fatal_at, warn, warn_at, unexpected_end.

(gl_EARLY): Add.
(AM_STDBOOL_H): Remove; gl_INIT now dows this.
(gl_INIT): Add
(GNULIB_AUTOCONF_SNIPPET): Remove.
(AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Add; require formatstring macros since that's
the pickiest.
* lib/.cvsignore: Add inttypes_.h.
* lib/Makefile.am: Include gnulib.mk first so we can append to it.
(AM_CFLAGS): Add WERROR_CFLAGS, to be more like coreutils.
(BUILT_SOURCES, EXTRA_DIST, MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Remove
no-longer-necessary initializations.
(lib_SOURCES): Remove, replacing by libbison_a_SOURCES.
* lib/subpipe.c: Include <unistd.h> unconditionally, now that we
use the unistd module.
* src/system.h: Likewise.
* m4/.cvsignore: Remove *_gl.m4, gnulib.m4, inttypes_h.m4, uintmax_t.m4,
ulonglong.m4. Add gettext.m4, gnulib-cache.m4, gnulib-comp.m4,
gnulib-tool.m4, inttypes-h.m4, inttypes-pri.m4, inttypes.m4.
* src/Makefile.am (DEFS): Remove, since configmake does this for us.
(AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove -I../lib, since Automake does that for us.
* src/system.h: Include inttypes.h unconditionally, now that we
use the inttypes module. Don't bother to include stdint.h, since
inttypes.h now does that for us.
(LOCALEDIR): Remove, now that we use the configmake module.

* src/main.c: Likewise.
* src/output.c: Likewise.
* tests/atlocal.in (CPPFLAGS): Include from $abs_top_builddir/lib,
not from $abs_top_builddir, since config.h moved.
po.m4, stdint_h.m4, uintmax_t.m4, ulonglong.m4, warning.m4.
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Stop using --assume-autoconf;
the latest gnulib does this a different way.
(get_translations): Sharuzzaman Ahmat Raslan reported that the ms
translation was patched, so stop omitting it.
* bootstrap (gnulib-modules): Remove hard-locale, stdio-safer.
Add fopen-safer.
(gnulib_files): Add m4/warning.m4. Don't worry about files
overwritten by autopoint.
Replace gt_INTL_SUBDIR_CORE with an empty body in m4/gettext_gl.m4.
Suppress "id", "ms", "tr" translations for now, since gettext 0.15
rejects them.
Don't use autoreconf; instead, invoke autopoint etc. by hand,
so that we can remove the intl files at a better time.
(intl_files_to_remove): Remove aclocal.m4, since it gets
rebuilt anyway. Remove m4/inttypes_h.m4, m4/inttypes.m4,
m4/isc-posix.m4, m4/lib-ld.m4, m4/lib-prefix.m4, m4/po.m4,
m4/stdint_h.m4, m4/uintmax_t.m4, m4/ulonglong.m4.
Add m4/inttypes-h.m4, m4/lock.m4, m4/visibility.m4.
Remove datarootdir hack; no longer needed.
* configure.ac: Use gl_WARNING_CFLAGS rather than BISON_WARNING.
(AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Bump from 0.12 to 0.15.
* lib/.cvsignore: Remove hard-locale.c, hard-locale.h, strdup.c,
strdup.h.
* m4/.cvsignore: Remove hard-locale.m4, strdup.m4.
* m4/warning.m4: Remove from CVS, since we now use gnulib's version.
* bootstrap (gnulib_modules): Add stdint.
Remove special case for m4/onceonly_2_57.m4, since gnulib-tool
no longer copies it.
(intl_files_to_remove): Remove m4/longlong.m4 and m4/wchar_t.m4,
since stdint needs the former and wcwidth (which is now required
by mbswidth) needs the latter.
Append 'datarootdir = @datarootdir@' to po/Makefile.in.in, to
work around a compatibility glitch between gettext 0.14.6 and
Autoconf 2.60.
* configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Require Autoconf 2.60.
Do not check for uintptr_t, since new stdint module does the right
thing.
* lib/.cvsignore: Remove alloca.c, alloca.h, alloca_.h.
Add stdint.h, stdint_.h, wcwidth.h.
* m4/.cvsignore: Remove alloca.m4, onceonly.m4.
Add absolute-header.m4, double-slash-root.m4, longlong.m4,
stdint.m4, wchar_t.m4, wcwidth.m4.
* src/files.c: Include <dirname.h> and <stdio-safer.h> in the
usual order for ../lib/*.h files.
(file_name_split): Use last_component, not base_name, to adjust
to gnulib changes.
* src/parse-gram.h: Include <strverscmp.h> in the usual order
for ../lib/*.h files.
(YYTYPE_INT16, YYTYPE_INT8, YYTYPE_UINT16, YYTYPE_UINT8):
Define unconditionally, since we now assume the stdint module.
* src/scan-skel.l: Include <dirname.h>.
(BASE_QPUTS): Use last_component, not base_name.
* src/system.h: Include <unlocked-io.h> in the usual order
for ../lib/*.h files. Include <stdint.h> unconditionally,
since we now use the stdint module.
(uintptr_t): Declare if UINTPTR_MAX is not defined, not
HAVE_UINTPTR_T, since we now use the stdint module.
(base_name): Remove decl, since files now include <dirname.h>
to get the decl.
* doc/FAQ: Remove ancient Y2K FAQ, replacing it with "secure"
and "POSIX". Use more-modern syntax for URLs. Mention C++
and ask for Java. Don't hardwire OS version numbers. Add
copyright notice.
* m4/.cvsignore: Add unistd_h.m4, for latest gnulib.
* src/conflicts.c (solved_conflicts_obstack): Now static.
Remove m4/glibc2.m4 (introduced by latest gnulib, but
we don't need it).
* lib/.cvsignore: Add dup-safer.c, fd-safer.c,
fopen-safer.c, stdio-safer.h, unistd-safer.h.
* lib/subpipe.c: Include "unistd-safer.h".
(create_subpipe): Make sure all the newly-created
file descriptors are > 2, so that diagnostics don't
get sent down them (which might cause Bison to hang, in theory).
* m4/.cvsignore: Add stdio-safer.m4, unistd-safer.m4.
* src/files.c (xfopen): Use fopen_safer, not fopen.
* src/.cvsignore: Add src-gram.c.
* tests/.cvsignore: Add atlocal.
* config/.cvsignore, m4/.cvsignore, po/.cvsignore:
Add several files that autoreconf may bring in during
bootstrap.
