C99 6.7.4p3 and 6.7.4p6 set some constraints on what can be done in
inline functions and how they can be declared. In particular, any
function declared inline must also be defined in the same translation
unit. To comply with that, remove inline specifiers from function
declarations in header files when the functions are not also defined
in those header files.
Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 9 is stricter than C99 and does not allow
references to static identifiers in extern inline functions. Make the
configure script detect this and define NONSTATIC_INLINE accordingly
in config.h. Then use that in the definitions of all non-static
inline functions.
Document the restrictions and this scheme in doc/hacking.txt.
This also makes the bookmark-update event carry strings in UTF-8.
The only current consumer of that event is bookmark_change_hook(),
which ignores the strings, so no changes are needed there.
c_strcasecmp and c_strncasecmp were taken from GNU coreutils 6.9,
which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation and licensed
under GNU GPL version 2 or later. It seems the programs in coreutils
do not normally read commands interactively. So, including coreutils
code in an interactive program such as ELinks could trigger GPLv2
section 2. c), which would require ELinks to display a copyright
notice and a warranty disclaimer each time it is started. Rewrite
those functions to remove the FSF-copyrighted code and make ELinks
not a work based on GNU coreutils.
Avoiding FSF code has the additional benefit that we won't have to ask
FSF for permission if we want to add a licence exception that allows
linking ELinks with OpenSSL. So it seems a good idea even if my
interpretation of GPLv2 2. c) is overly strict. I haven't checked
though whether there are other FSF-copyrighted portions in ELinks.
If ELinks is being linked with SSL library, use its random number
generator.
Otherwise, try /dev/urandom and /dev/prandom. If they do not work,
fall back to rand(), calling srand() only once. This fallback is
mostly interesting for the Hurd and Microsoft Windows.
BitTorrent piece selection and dom/test/html-mangle.c still use rand()
(but not srand()) directly. Those would not benefit from being
unpredictable, I think.

This bug was revelead while using bittorrent.
For filenames started with a dot and two slashes .//
the open_bittorrent_file returned -1 and set errno to EEXIST.
Instead, convert the element pointers inside the comparison functions.
The last argument of qsort() is supposed to be of type
int (*)(const void *, const void *). Previously, comp_links() was
defined to take struct link * instead of const void *, and the type
mismatch was silenced by casting the function pointer to void *.
This was in principle not portable because:
(1) The different pointer types may have different representations.
In a word-oriented machine, the const void * might include a byte
selector while the struct link * might not.
(2) Casting a function pointer to a data pointer can lose bits in some
memory models. Apparently this does not occur in POSIX-conforming
systems though, as dlsym() would fail if it did.
This commit also fixes hits_cmp() and compare_dir_entries(), which
had similar problems. However, I'm leaving alias_compare() in
src/intl/gettext/localealias.c unchanged for now, so as not to diverge
from the GNU version.
I also checked the bsearch() calls but they were all okay, apart from
one that used the alias_compare() mentioned above.
There were conflicts in src/document/css/ because 0.12.GIT switched
to LIST_OF(struct css_selector) and 0.13.GIT switched to struct
css_selector_set. Resolved by using LIST_OF(struct css_selector)
inside struct css_selector_set.
