The new way to do builds will be to leave source code for almost everything
in place in the relevant subdirectories (e.g. "apache", "bsd", etc) rather
than merge them all into one "Sources" directory. More detail to be put in
the ROOL wiki shortly.

Version 5.10. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_10'

Required for building various transient utilities that are found in the
Library directory from source rather than them being binary imports.

Version 5.09. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_09'

Also pruned a lot of dead components from the ModuleDB file. I have been
unable to locate sources for any of them in either the closed source or
published source repositories.

Version 5.08. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_08'

Version 5.07. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_07'

Version 5.06. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_06'

Version 5.05. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_05'

Version 5.04. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_04'

Detail:
  * Fixed dependencies for debug builds in GNUmakefiles/CApp
  * Added -f switch to rm in GNUmakefiles/StdTools to make it fail silently
    if the file doesn't exist, like the RISC OS version
  * Fix for amu complaining if INSTTYPE is undefined in Makefiles/CApp
  * Reflected makefile changes in resgen, squeeze and xpand in CTools
    component file
  * Added a8time to ModuleDB and CTools component file
Admin:
  Tested in  a C Tools build

Version 5.03. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_03'

Version 5.02. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_02'

Detail:
 CApp:
  * New variable CLEAN_DEPEND is now the preferred way to specify additional
    clean actions because GNU make doesn't have an equivalent to amu's :: rules
  * Can now indicate preference to use C++ linker options using LINK_TYPE
  * Gains install phase support:
    + INSTALLAPPFILES lists the files to be copied, effectively specified
      relative to LocalRes$Path
    + Adopted INSTTYPE concept from DDE makefiles for cases where executable
      and support files need to be installed to different locations
    + Unusual cases can override this implementation using CUSTOMINSTALLAPP
      and/or CUSTOMINSTALLTOOL

  CLibrary:
  * New variable CLEAN_DEPEND is now the preferred way to specify additional
    clean actions because GNU make doesn't have an equivalent to amu's :: rules
  * -o is no longer a mandatory argument to libfile - now in ARFLAGS rather
    than used explicitly

  DbgRules / StdRules:
  * Macroised some Norcroft-specific features

  HostTools:
  * Clean phase support was incomplete

  StdTools:
  * A few additional tool definitions
  * Added macro definitions for common C options
  * C's enable-warnings and suppress-function-name-embedding options now on by
    default because they're usually (maybe even universally?) used - it won't
    hurt if they're specified again by existing makefiles
  * C++ now has equivalent INCLUDES and DEFINES variables, and the standard C++
    headers are on the default include path
  * SEP is defined as the directory separator character and can be used from
    top-level makefiles in a platform-independent way

  Functionally equivalent versions of the following makefile fragments
  have been developed so far for executing on a Posix build host:
    AppLibs, CApp, CLibrary, DbgRules, HostTools, StdRules, StdTools
  These suport native compilers (when APCS=Host) and cross-compilers,
  and GCC (when TOOLCHAIN=GNU) and Norcroft toolchains - typically these
  environment variables would be selected by running an Env file.

Admin:
  Tested by building as many as possible of the DDE components on RISC OS
  and on Linux, using native and cross compilers, and using Norcroft and
  GNU toolchains.

Version 5.01. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_01'

Detail:
  Components/ROOL/OMAP3 - Updated components file to enable OMAPVideo debugging by default, to help try and track down video issues on IGEP boards
Admin:
  Tested in OMAP ROM on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.00. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_00'

Detail:
  SCSIFiler is now no longer dependent on ADFSFiler's resources, so there's no point including ADFSFiler in the ROM image.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.99. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_99'

Version 4.98. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_98'

Version 4.97. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_97'

Version 4.96. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_96'

Version 4.95. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_95'

Removed CircleSetup screensaver config - it's meaningless.

Version 4.94. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_94'

Version 4.93. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_93'

Detail:
  Binary blob of this module in CVS has been ARMv6-safe since May.
Admin:
  Untested as yet - about to try a ROM autobuild...

Version 4.92. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_92'

Detail:
  The screensaver setup apps (all called !SvrSetup) each have their source code inside the "Settings" folder for the relevant screen saver - but previously there was no way of building the code for the setup apps. This change fixes that, by adding dedicated ModuleDB entries for each setup app.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.91. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_91'

Version 4.90. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_90'

Version 4.89. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_89'

Version 4.88. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_88'

Detail:
  RTSupport is now required to build SCSISoftUSB and (more importantly) included in the ROM image to enable the USB optimisations.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.87. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_87'

Version 4.86. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_86'

Version 4.85. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_85'

Detail:
  Thanks to the working !Boot sequence I've been able to finally test networking. As a result, the full set of networking modules are now enabled for OMAP3 ROM builds.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard with ARMv7-safe copy of EtherUSB. InetSetup, Ping, and ShareFS seemed to behave themselves.


Version 4.84. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_84'

Reconstructed Disc components file to allow a functional, semi-complete RISC OS 5 disc image/!Boot sequence to be built

Detail:
  Components file almost entirely reconstructed, based around Iyonix-ish Universal components file received from ROOL. Any missing/broken components are commented out with ### for clarity.
Admin:
  Built on Iyonix, tested on BeagleBoard


Version 4.83. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_83'

Version 4.82. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_82'

Fixed to point at the (new) location of the zip tool and added some useful
parameters - this is safe because nothing in the build tree was using
this definition of ZIP anyway.

Version 4.81. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_81'

Update CModule makefile fragment to use a default RESFSDIR if required. Add IIC module to OMAP3 components file.

Detail:
  Makefiles/CModule - makefile fragment now generates a default RESFSDIR value in an identical way to the AAsmModule fragment, easing migration of makefiles to the fragment system.
  Components/ROOL/OMAP3 - IIC module has been added to ROM image
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.80. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_80'

Admin:
  Tested in a TungstenDev build on an Iyonix

Version 4.79. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_79'

Detail:
  ModuleDB - Added entry for new MUSBDriver module
  Components/ROOL/OMAP3 - Add MUSBDriver module to build. Add commented out lines for DADebug, debug versions of USB modules (saves me the hassle of remembering the right options all the time!)
Admin:
  Tested on Rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.78. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_78'

Detail:
  * Updates to CModule makefile fragment to reduce the number of OS-specific
    rules in main Makefiles:
    + Added (RAM|ROM)(C|ASM)DEFINES variables. These allow the calling makefile
      to specify additional defines for RAM or ROM builds of C or assembler
      source files respectively. Traditionally this was done by having separate
      object files for RAM and ROM corresponding at least to whichever source
      file was responsible for interfacing with ResourceFS, but this requires
      messy additional rules. With this new approach, it is necessary to clean
      the component when switching between RAM and ROM builds, but I don't
      think this will affect many people's workflows.
    + Added CMHGDEPENDS. This should be used to specify which object files need
      a static dependency upon the h file autogenerated from the cmhg file.
      It should be specified in the usual form for object files passed to
      CModule - with...

Detail:
  Machine can now take values All or All32
Admin:
  Tested in a BuildHost build.

Version 4.76. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_76'

Detail:
  This is useful for building tools during the course of a main build where
  the build host is of an incompatible architecture to the target - for example
  building an Iyonix ROM on a Risc PC or an architecture-tuned Beagleboard ROM
  on an Iyonix.  For now it relies on re-using the target architecture versions
  of CApp and other makefile fragments so it's not suitable for cross-
  compilation yet (in other words, the host system is still assumed to be a
  RISC OS machine).
Admin:
  Tested by building an APCS-R target on an Iyonix (with a few tweaks - we
  can't link with the APCS-R stubs on an Iyonix, but the stubs should be
  architecture-invariant within the same calling standard so this isn't a
  real problem).

Version 4.75. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_75'

Detail:
  Reinstated CLX (actually the cut-down version, CLXLite) and 9 tools that
  depend upon it: chmod, diff, find, modsqz, srcbuild, squeeze, romlinker,
  unmodsqz and xpand
Admin:
  Tested - verified these 9 tools can be used to rebuild themselves

Version 4.74. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_74'
