Hi,

This fixes another bug in rm and a bad bug in the test script,
tests/rm/fail-eperm.  Thanks to Mike Stone for the patches.

I can't ssh to fetish.sf.net right now, so only the
alpha.gnu.org URLs work.

I'm hoping that this will be the last test release before
fileutils-4.2.

Jim

        * Version 4.1.11.

        * src/stat.c (usage): The short form of --dereference is now -L, not -l.
        Reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.

        * src/rm.c: Add new option, --presume-input-tty, for testing only.
        Not documented.

        This test might remove a file owned by the person running `make check'.
        * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Hoist definition of $target_file, and use
        that (not $f) in test for owner/dir/symlink.  Patch by Michael Stone.

        * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Handle the case in which rm produces no output.

        rm would prompt for a symlink to an unwritable file
        * src/remove.c (prompt): When not interactive, don't prompt
        for a symlink.  Reported by Dave Beckett.  Patch by Michael Stone.
        * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Add a test for the above-fixed bug.

        * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use file_name_lookup, not getdport.
        Patch by Alfred M. Szmidt.

        * Makefile.maint (news-r1, news-r2): Define.  Better regexp.
        (announcement): Use them here.  Also makes the line length < 80.

        * Upgrade to cvs automake -- required to work with 2.53b.
        * configure.ac: Require automake-1.6a.

        * c-bs-a.m4 (AC_C_BACKSLASH_A): Remove file, now that autoconf
        provides this macro.


        * intdiv0.m4: New file.  From gettex-0.11.3.
