+ * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround.
+
Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog
file only when making the actual release, not when running
"make distcheck".
report the number of used blocks as being "total - available"
(a negative number) rather than as garbage.
- rm's core is now reentrant: rm --recursive (-r) now processes
- hierarchies without changing the working directory at all.
+ dircolors: a new autoconf run-test for AIX's buggy strndup function
+ prevents malfunction on that system; may also affect cut, expand,
+ and unexpand.
fts no longer changes the current working directory, so its clients
(chmod, chown, chgrp, du) no longer malfunction under extreme conditions.
pwd and other programs using lib/getcwd.c work even on file systems
where dirent.d_ino values are inconsistent with those from stat.st_ino.

** Changes in behavior
basename and dirname now treat // as different from / on platforms
