+
+       * doc/tar.texi (extracting untrusted archives): New section.
+
+       * src/common.h (stripped_path_len): Renamed from cut_path_elements.
+       Return size_t, not pointer, so that we don't have to worry about
+       violating the C standard by converting char const * to char *.
+       All callers changed.
+       * src/names.c (stripped_path_len): Likewise.  Strip file system
+       prefix, too.  Count adjacent slashes as if they were one slash;
+       that is the POSIX standard.

+
+       * README-alpha: Document maintainer tool assumptions a bit.  GNU
+       'sed' is no longer required.  For GNU m4 1.4, suggest the patch in
+       Debian bug 211447.  Fix minor misspellings/whitespace nits.
+
+       * configure.ac (AC_AIX, AC_MINIX): Remove; subsumed by
+       gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS.
+
+       * lib/.cvsignore: Add exit.h, time_r.c, time_r.h.
+       * m4/.cvsignore: Add restrict.m4, time_r.m4.
