+
+ 4/27
+ ----
+doc/Makefile.in
+ - install {readline,history}.info out of the source directory if

+
+ 8/3
+ ---
+shlib/Makefile.in
+ - made the suffix rule that creates xx.so from xx.c write the
+ compiler output to `a.o', which is then mv'd to xx.so, because
+ some compilers (Sun WSpro 4.2, for example) don't allow any
+ suffixes other than `.o' for `cc -c' (not even `a.out')
+
+ 9/15
+ ----
+

+ - add dependencies on xmalloc.h, rlshell.h
+ - add xmalloc.h, rlprivate.h, rlshell.h to list of header files

+support/shlib-install
+ - OSF/1 installs shared libraries like Solaris
+
+Makefile.in
+ - broke the header file install and uninstall into two new targets:
+ install-headers and uninstall-headers
+ - install and uninstall depend on install-headers and uninstall-headers
+ respectively
+ - changed install-shared and uninstall-shared targets to depend on
+ install-headers and uninstall-headers, respectively, so users may
+ choose to install only the shared libraries. I'm not sure about
+ the uninstall one yet -- maybe it should check whether or not
+ the static libraries are installed and not remove the header files
+ if they are
+
