Version 11, interface, binary age 0.
Thu Nov 22 13:14:18 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* configure.in (GLIB_MICRO_VERSION): Version 11,
interface, binary age 0.
* NEWS: Updated.
* tests/Makefile.am (libmoduletestplugin_[ab]_la_LDFLAGS):
Add dummy -rpath argument. On some (but not all) platforms,
libtool will only build a convenience library without this.
(#63486, Dan Winship)
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README.in, INSTALL.in -
autoconf-2.5x checks for 'make dist' in the tarball
when you make distcheck.
* glib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute
makefile.msc/mingw.in, glib.rc.in.
* tests/patterntest.c: Include string.h.
* glib/gpattern.c (g_utf8_reverse): doc parsing fix.
