- Cleaned up the OS4 build makefile, losing redundant libraries,
adding more startup object code and ultimatively making the whole
rebuild logic work again: if code changes and dependencies are
set up correctly, it will now get rebuilt. Previously, such
changes went unnoticed and you had to rebuild the entire library
from scratch.
- Added stubs for CreatePort(), DeletePort(), CreateTask(), DeleteTask()
and NewList() which have equivalents in exec.library V50 but for which
it might be useful if ported code didn't have to reference these
explicitly.
- mktemp() was broken in libunix.a with Unix path semantics enabled.
This was because the name template was translated and translated
back again, overwriting the translation buffer. This, funny enough,
broke Samba's printing feature. Fixed by translating the name only
before each test for "uniqueness" is made. The new code also handles
empty "" templates gracefully, which was a problem with both the
"standard" and the Unix path semantics flavour.
Why is it that I find bugs like this always after having just
released another library update?
