Update.
2000-03-20  Richard Henderson  <rth@cygnus.com>

	* nis/nss_nis/nis-service.c (_nss_nis_getservbyport_r): Last
	argument to yperr2nss is an int, not size_t.
	* posix/regex.c (print_partial_compiled_pattern): Cast all
	ptrdiff_t to long for printing.
	(print_compiled_pattern): Use Z for printing size_t.
	* posix/testfnm.c (tests): Avoid trigraphs.
	* sysdeps/alpha/dl-machine.h (ELF_MACHINE_RUNTIME_TRAMPOLINE):
	Use a C comment, not an assembly comment.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/msgctl.c: Clarify use
	of __ASSUME_32BITUIDS.
