21fea2e228 Update texinfo.tex, config.guess, config.sub from upstream.
This patch updates various miscellaneous files we take from upstream
GNU sources (texinfo.texi, config.guess, config.sub - various others
haven't changed upstream since we last updated them) to their current
upstream versions.

Tested x86_64.

	* manual/texinfo.tex: Update to version 2013-11-26.10 with
	trailing whitespace removed.
	* scripts/config.guess: Update to version 2013-11-29.
	* scripts/config.sub: Update to version 2013-10-01.

c688b41960 Add _DEFAULT_SOURCE feature test macro.
This patch adds a feature test macro _DEFAULT_SOURCE to enable the
default set of header declarations.

The intention is: if _DEFAULT_SOURCE is not used there is no change to
the set of __USE_* macros glibc defines; if it's used on its own, and
without compiler options such as -std=c99 that define __STRICT_ANSI__,
again, there is no change; if it's used together with the macros it
approximately (i.e., apart from __USE_POSIX_IMPLICITLY) implies
(-D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L), again, there
is no change.  Otherwise, it causes the relevant features to be
enabled, even if __STRICT_ANSI__, or another feature test macro, would
cause them to be disabled.

This macro deliberately bundles the POSIX.1-2008 (non-X/Open)
functionality with the BSD/SVID/"misc" functionality, rather than
defining a macro that gives just the latter, as many of the header
cleanups resulting from removing _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE support
are only possible when BSD/SVID/"misc" is always bundled with
POSIX.1-2008.

Tested x86_64.

	* include/features.h: Update comment documenting feature test
	macros.  Mention _DEFAULT_SOURCE in comment.
	[_GNU_SOURCE] (_DEFAULT_SOURCE): Undefine and redefine.
	[_DEFAULT_SOURCE]: Undefine and redefine _DEFAULT_SOURCE,
	_BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE.
	[!__STRICT_ANSI__ && !_ISOC99_SOURCE && !_POSIX_SOURCE &&
	!_POSIX_C_SOURCE && !_XOPEN_SOURCE && !_BSD_SOURCE &&
	!_SVID_SOURCE]: Likewise.
	[_DEFAULT_SOURCE && !_POSIX_SOURCE && !_POSIX_C_SOURCE]
	(__USE_POSIX_IMPLICITLY): Define.
	[_DEFAULT_SOURCE && !_POSIX_SOURCE && !_POSIX_C_SOURCE]
	(_POSIX_SOURCE): Undefine and redefine.
	[_DEFAULT_SOURCE && !_POSIX_SOURCE && !_POSIX_C_SOURCE]
	(_POSIX_C_SOURCE): Likewise.
	* manual/creature.texi (_DEFAULT_SOURCE): Document.
	(Feature Test Macros): Update documentation of default features.

ee0a148a56 Stop partial menu generation in INSTALL file
The commit d136c6dc resulted in menu text for the "Top" node being added
to the INSTALL file on regeneration.  As the full menu is not displayed
in the plain text file anyway, suppress the menu section completely to
avoid the additional text.

Also regenerate the INSTALL file to commit a small formatting change
introduced in the same commit.

b9ab448f98 Add error reporting (via errno) to getauxval().
[BZ 15846] As discussed in the recent thread on my $EXEC_ORIGIN patch
and in BZ 15846, getauxval() presently has no unambiguous way of
reporting an error condition.  It currently returns zero on error, but
this may also be a valid result for some auxv entries.  As there is no
clear invalid result for all current and future auxv entries, this patch
sets errno (following a suggestion in the BZ entry).

This version of the patch also adds documentation and tests for the
value-not-found conditions in getauxval().

0748546f66 Support TZ transition times < 00:00:00.
This is needed for version-3 tz-format files; it supports time
stamps past 2037 for America/Godthab (the only entry in the tz
database for which this change is relevant).
* manual/time.texi (TZ Variable): Document transition times
from -167:59:59 through -00:00:01.
* time/tzset.c (tz_rule): Time of day is now signed.
(__tzset_parse_tz): Parse negative time of day.

support will help with version-3 tz-format files.

	* manual/memory.texi (Malloc Examples): Mention aligned_alloc.
	(Aligned Memory Blocks): Add documentation for aligned_alloc
	and suggest it as an alternative to posix_memalign.
	(Hooks for Malloc): Document __memalign_hook is also called
	for aligned_alloc.  (Summary of Malloc): Add summary for
	aligned alloc.  Document __memalign_hook is also called
	for aligned_alloc.

0a096e4487 manual/memory.texi: Bring aligned allocation docs up to date.
The current documentation suggests using memalign and valloc which
are now considered obsolete, so suggest using posix_memalign instead.
Also document the possible error return and errno values for memalign
and posix_memalign and improve documentation of __memalign_hook.

ChangeLog:

2013-12-16  Will Newton  <will.newton@linaro.org>

	* manual/memory.texi (Malloc Examples): Clarify default
	alignment documentation.  Suggest posix_memalign rather
	than memalign or valloc.
	(Aligned Memory Blocks): Remove suggestion to use memalign
	or valloc.  Remove obsolete comment about BSD.
	Document memalign errno values and mark the function obsolete.
	Document posix_memalign returned error codes.  Mark valloc
	as obsolete.  (Hooks for Malloc): __memalign_hook is also
	called for posix_memalign and valloc.
	(Summary of Malloc): Add posix_memalign to function summary.
	__memalign_hook is also called for posix_memalign and valloc.
