Updated.
1999-03-27 Andreas Jaeger <aj@arthur.rhein-neckar.de> * malloc/obstack.h (obstack_free): Explicitly convert __obj to char * to avoid C++ warning. Patch by yasushi@cs.washington.edu [PR libc/1035]. 1999-03-29 Andreas Jaeger <aj@arthur.rhein-neckar.de> * manual/filesys.texi (Temporary Files): mktemp and mkstemp are declared in stdlib.h, correct return value of mkstemp. Reported by Andries Brouwer <Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl>. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/net/if_arp.h (ARPHDRD_FC*): New defines from Linux 2.2.5. * misc/regexp.h (compile): Cast some pointers to (char *) to avoid C++ warning.
