In this case: reset the locale to “C” at start.
Otherwise, perl/OpenBSD fails in an UTF-8 environment, just
because OpenBSD 4.3/zaurus still has no locales in 2008.
change – this might affect other OSes too in time for R34
• one of the regression tests had an unexpected failure if running as root
• www: sync clog; log newer mksh built on newer OpenBSD works fine
act strange… 10x Adam “replaced” Hoka for helping to find this
00:51⎜<replaced_> it needs -A
00:52⎜<mirabilos> heh. locale?
00:52⎜<replaced_> -A Translates on a byte-by-byte basis. When this flag
00:52⎜<replaced_> is specified tr does not support extended
00:52⎜<replaced_> characters.
00:52⎜<replaced_> LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
00:52⎜<mirabilos> hmmm
00:52⎜<mirabilos> but that is weird too
00:52⎜<mirabilos> I don't see why it shouldn't work
00:52⎜<replaced_> yeah, it should act the same
00:53⎜<mirabilos> try this please:
00:53⎜<mirabilos> without -A
00:53⎜<mirabilos> echo sys/param.h | env LC_ALL=C /bin/tr -c

00:53⎜<replaced_> this works of course
• more int → bool
• more regression tests: check if the utf8-hack flag is really disabled
at non-interactive startup, enabled at interactive startup, if the
current locale is a UTF-8 one
• make the mksh-local multibyte handling functions globally accessible,
change their names, syntax and semantics a little (XXX more work needed)
• optimise
• utf_wctomb: src → dst, as we’re writing to that char array (pasto?)
• edit.c:x_e_getmbc(): if the second byte of a 2- or 3-byte multibyte
sequence is invalid utf-8, ungetc it (not possible for the 3rd byte yet)
• edit.c:x_zotc3(): easier (and faster) handling of UTF-8
• implement, document and test for base-1 numbers: they just get the
ASCII (8-bit) or Unicode (UTF-8) value of the octet(s) after the ‘1#’,
or do the same as print \x## or \u#### (depending on the utf8-hack flag),
plus support the PUA assignment of EF80‥EFFF for the MirBSD encoding “hack”
(print doesn’t, as it has \x## and \u#### to distinguish, but we cannot use
base-0 numbers which I had planned to use for raw octets first, as they are
used internally): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.miros.general/7938
• as an application example, add a hexdumper to the regression tests ☺
• apply diff from mirbsdksh-1.11:
#ifdef DUP2_BROKEN
/* Ultrix systems like to preserve the close-on-exec flag */
‣ XXX we do #ifdef __ultrix here (imake-style) instead of mirtoconfing it
(but does anyone know of any other OS with the same problem? plus we’d
see it as we now know the symptoms)
• remove ultrix Build.hs warn=' but might work…' in the hope it DOES
• detecting a lot more compilers (stolen from CMake, admittedly, as they
were the first coming up at G**gle with usable #ifdefs)
• handling MIPSpro
• more system info on IRIX
‣ I/O redirection seems broken:
$ (date; date >/dev/null; date) | wc -l
1 (expected: 2)
‣ other than that: working fine
‣ -YBSD (default) and -YSYSTEM_FIVE don’t work, just -YPOSIX, somehow
• Fix $(…) to `…` for OSF/1 V2.0 /bin/sh
‣ this compiler is FUBAR though:
$ cat >t.c
main() { return (foo()); }
$ cc t.c
ld:
Unresolved :
foo
$ echo $?
0
$ ls -l a.out
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mirbsd users 10835 Jul 21 17:12 a.out
‣ it seems to have ucode, but man is not installed
• new mirtoconf check: mkstemp(3)
• if !HAVE_MKSTEMP (Ultrix), use tempnam(3)
• only use printf(1) if it exists (it doesn’t on Ultrix)
• a few more signals
• add S_ISLNK if the OS doesn’t define it
• add strcasecmp(3) proto for Ultrix (it _is_ in <portability.h>, but
only for -YBSD I think)
• fgrep(1) on Ultrix doesn’t do “-e ① -e ②”
10x DEChengst:#UnixNL for giving access
it can’t do -Werror, that’s why it mis-detects attribute support.
ignore the warnings (unused variables, uninitialised values, control flow)
as I checked them and they are not valid. gcc 1.42 (BSDi modified) compiles
a very fine mksh
