fix test-quotearg

The test-quotearg test always fails on MacOS X and AIX. The reason is that this test attempts to override the gettext() function from libintl by defining a gettext() function in the main compilation unit. When libintl is a shared library, this works only when the object file format is ELF. But MacO

use non-UTF-8 locales on MacOS X

Now that the 'localcharset' module supports non-UTF-8 locales on MacOS X, some special code in m4/locale-*.m4 can be removed: The locales fr_FR.ISO8859-1, ja_JP.eucJP, zh_CN.GB18030 can be used; they don't cause test suite failures in gnulib. 2009-01-25 Bruno Haible * m4/locale-fr.m4

fix link errors on MacOS X

On MacOS X 10.3 / PowerPC, variables that are implicitly zero-initialized can lead to link errors: $ gcc -g -O2 -o test-mbsnrtowcs test-mbsnrtowcs.o ../gllib/libgnu.a ld: Undefined symbols: __gl_mbsrtowcs_state This fixes it: 2009-01-25 Bruno Haible Avoid link errors on MacOS X

execute, pipe: use posix_spawnp

The replacements for the posix_spawn* family of functions appear to work fine on all Unix platforms (at least w.r.t. the gettext test suite). I'm therefore removing the old vfork/fork based alternative code. Sam Steingold would call this a "dependency creep". But it removes duplicated code. 2009

mbrtowc: support GB18030 locales

On OSF/1 5.1, in the zh_CN.GB18030 locale, the test-mbsstr3.sh test fails. The reason is that 1) lib/mbrtowc.c has no particular code for the GB18030 encoding, 2) for an unknown encoding, it runs into an abort(). This fixes it. 2009-01-25 Bruno Haible * lib/mbrtowc.c (mbrtowc): D

charset.alias not needed on Cygwin and mingw

Since the result of config.charset is hardcoded in localcharset.c for Cygwin and mingw, there is no need to install charset.alias on these platforms. 2009-01-25 Bruno Haible Don't install charset.alias on mingw and Cygwin. * modules/localcharset (install-exec-local): Don't inst
