* Improved stdio to allocate extra FILE objects beyond the static array of 16. Number of open files now only limited by memory and the OS.

* FOPEN_MAX in <stdio.h> increased from 8 to 16 to reflect reality.
* Minor corrections to comments in <stdio.h>.
* Library shutdown tidied for modules. In particular, shutdown of I/O was
  broken for modules which had been entered as applications.

Version 5.53. Tagged as 'RISC_OSLib-5_53'

* _Exit() added.
* Lots of new <math.h> functions (acosh, asinh, atanh, exp2, expm1,
  ilogb, log1p, log2, logb, scalbn, scalbln, cbrt, erf, erfc,
  lgamma, tgamma, nexttoward, fmaf). Float and long double forms
  of every function added; long double forms are included as another
  library object in the stubs rather than the shared library, as they
  just branch to the double form.
* Subnormal/NaN/infinity cases in various <math.h> functions improved.
* Added <tgmath.h>.
* Headers brought into line with CC 5.54.
* RMEnsures added to C library initialisation to try to load minimum
  CallASWI, FPEmulator, CLib. No errors reported if load fails.
* A few pointless inter-file dependencies removed to reduce minimum
  size of included ANSILib.

Version 5.46. Tagged as 'RISC_OSLib-5_46'

* Added two new library chunks, 4 and 5, which contain extensions to the kernel and C library respectively. These have no static data associated with them, just being extensions of the stub tables. The reason for this is to minimise wasted space in programs that don't use the C99 facilities; o.stubs is now a library split into 3 pieces - basic kernel and CLib, extra kernel and extra

  CLib; only the bits a program needs get included.

* Previous extensions to the C library stubs revoked - they now stop at _swix;
  all the new C99 functions now live in chunk 4. Anyone using those new
  functions should relink with new stubs and ensure this C library version.

* printf/scanf now support 64-bit types through "ll" and "j" length modifiers.

* Run-time support for VLAs (__rt_allocauto and __rt_freeauto) added. No
  attempt is currently made to clear up on longjmp or to cope with someone
  changing the kernel allocator while a VLA is active. These would be a
  future enhancement.

* Added complete 64-bit run-ti...

  * snprintf(), vsnprintf(), vfscanf(), vscanf(), vsscanf()
  * hh, j, z and t printf length modifiers (indicating char, intmax_t, size_t
    and ptrdiff_t respectively)
  * Hexadecimal floating-point printing and scanning (%a/%A)
  * %F printf() specifier (upper-case form of %F)
  * Input/output of NaNs and Infinities
  * imaxdiv_t, imaxdiv(), strtoimax(), strtoumax() (simulated through macros)
  * <fenv.h>: feclearexcept(), fegetexceptflag(), feraiseexcept(),
              fesetexceptflag(), fetestexcept(), fegetround(), fesetround(),
              fegetenv(), feholdexcept(), fesetenv(), feupdateenv()
  * FLT_EVAL_METHOD, DECIMAL_DIG
  * hypot(), hypotf(), fabsf(), fdim(), fdimf(), fmax(), fmaxf(), fmin(),
    fminf()
  * INFINITY, NAN, fpclassify(), isfinite(), isinf(), isnan(), isnormal(),
    signbit(), copysign(), copysignf(), nan(), nanf(), nextafter(),
    nextafterf() isgreater(), isgreaterequal(), isless(), islessequal(),
    islessgreater(), isunordered()

Version 5.06. Tagged as 'RISC_OSLib-5_06'

If a module written in C uses function getenv, buffer space
is allocated in the RMA. This buffer was never freed, leading
to RMA leakage when the module was 'RMKill'ed or 'RMReInit'ed.

Changes

 c.armsys
   added function _terminate_getenv to free the buffer

 c.stdlib
   added flag getenv_finalised to the exit_s structure

   initialised getenv_finalised in function _exit_init

   atexit tests getenv_finalised, calls _terminate_getenv

 s.version
   version string changed to 4.86 (27 Jul 1998)
