Sorry about this. I'll back out SCCSID and COPYRIGHT usage here, as well
as m4(1), tomorrow.
Thank you for pointing it out.
The tabs/lack-thereof in SCCSID in m4(1) were due to me mis-using copy/paste in
my editor vs. in my terminal. I'm going to be reverting the expanded keywords
and their use (rcsid/sccsid/copyright) to how they are on the vendor branch to
reduce diffs.
Again, sorry, and again, thanks to you and Mike Barcroft for telling me this is
wrong. I don't mind something that's going to make m4 updating easier in the
future by any means.
Speaking of the updates in m4, one of them related to...
int getreql()
{
int getreql;
...
Because of the shadowing. Changes like that are legitimate right? As it is,
in my grepping for malloc use last night, I found at least one of us a variable:
unsigned long malloc;
But that's another set of questions entirely.
Thanks again.
