2015-08-16Desupport regexp.h (bug 18681)Zack Weinberg
2015-08-01Deprecate the use of regexp.hZack Weinberg
<regexp.h> (not to be confused with <regex.h>) is an obsolete and frankly horrible regular expression-matching API. It was part of SVID but was withdrawn in Issue 5 (for reference, we're on Issue 7 now). It doesn't do anything you can't do with <regex.h>, and using it involves defining a bunch of macros before including the header. Moreover, the code in regexp.h that uses those macros has been buggy since its creation (in 1996) and no one has noticed, which indicates to me that there are no users. (Specifically, RETURN() is used in a whole bunch of cases where it should have been ERROR().) The header is given a warning and marked deprecated for 2.22. See: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-07/msg00862.html and https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-07/msg00871.html.

This is consistent with the sysv4 definitions and seems Right. * signal/signal.h: Don't __OPTIMIZE__ sigops to __ versions. Add prototype for __sigsuspend. * sysdeps/posix/sigblock.c: Optimize sigmask <-> sigset_t conversions for sigset_t == unsigned long. De-ansidecl-ify.
