==================== Changes in man-pages-2.64 ====================
Global changes
--------------
Many pages
mtk
Added/updated feature test macro requirements for
glibc; see feature_test_macros.7 for details.
Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
setpgid.2
mtk
Fairly substantial changes and corrections, including adding
coverage of all of the interfaces that get/set PGIDs.
syscalls.2
mtk / aeb
Varous rewordings; clear up some imprecisions.
strerror.3
mtk
Note that the XPG version is provided since glibc 2.3.4.
The page formerly said that the GNU-specific version
is provided by default. That certainly isn't true
nowadays, since _POSIX_C_SOURCE is set to 200112L by
default, so that the XSI-compliant version is supplied
by default.
man-pages.7
mtk
Added note pointing to feature_test_macros.7 for a description
of how feature test macro requirements should be specified in
manual pages. Various other minor fixes and changes.
feature_test_macros.7
mtk
Added note about how feature test macros are specified
in manual pages.
Many other corrections, improvements, additions, and
details about differences across glibc versions.
