-Subject: [PATCH] AC_HEADER_MAJOR: port to glibc 2.25
-
-glibc 2.25 is deprecating the namespace pollution of <sys/types.h>
-injecting major(), minor(), and makedev() into the compilation
-environment, with a warning that insists that users include
-<sys/sysmacros.h> instead. However, because the expansion of
-AC_HEADER_MAJOR didn't bother checking sys/sysmacros.h until
-after probing whether sys/types.h pollutes the namespace, it was
-not defining MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS, with the result that code
-compiled with -Werror chokes on the deprecation warnings because
-it was not including sysmacros.h.
-
-In addition to fixing autoconf (which only benefits projects
-that rebuild configure after this fix is released), we can also
-give a hint to distros on how they can populate config.site with
-a cache variable to force pre-existing configure scripts without
-the updated macro to behave sanely in the presence of glibc 2.25
-(the documentation is especially useful since that cache variable
-is no longer present in autoconf after this patch).
-
-Note that mingw lacks major/minor/makedev in any of its standard
-headers; for that platform, the behavior of this macro is unchanged
-(code using the recommended include formula will get a compile error
-when trying to use major(), whether before or after this patch); but
-for now, it is assumed that programs actually concerned with
-creating devices are not worried about portability to mingw. If
-desired, a later patch could tighten AC_HEADER_MAJOR to fail at
-configure time if the macros are unavailable in any of the three
-system headers, but that semantic change is not worth mixing into
-this patch.
-
-* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_MAJOR): Drop check for
-major within sys/types.h; it interferes with the need to check
-sysmacros.h first.

- # AC_HEADER_MAJOR
- # ---------------
-+# Thanks to glibc 2.25 deprecating macros in sys/types.h, coupled with
-+# back-compat to autoconf 2.69, we need the following logic:
-+# Check whether <sys/types.h> compiles.
-+# If <sys/mkdev.h> compiles, assume it provides major/minor/makedev.
-+# Otherwise, if <sys/sysmacros.h> compiles, assume it provides the macros.
-+# Otherwise, either the macros were provided by <sys/types.h>, or do
-+# not exist on the platform. Code trying to use these three macros is
-+# assumed to not care about platforms that lack the macros.
