CVS' activity digest - Issue 000

[Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi all,

There has been a lot of discussion in the past few week about bringing
Mark Kirby's CVS Digest out of its grave. The following might be seen
as an attempt to do so, the future will confirm it. This is far from
being perfect, but I hope to improve it in the upcoming weeks.

Stop talking, let's see what happened this week...

 * Fix 1TB drives support. [Stephen Borrill]

also fix the decode of cache descriptors. [Paul Goyette]

Compared to `snprintb()', the `snprintb_m()' function accepts an
additional argument representing the maximum length of a formatted
string. [Paul Goyette]

IEEE Std 1003.1 (``POSIX.1'') and the Open Group Base Specifications
