* NEWS: Record release date.
build: fix build failure due to missing libxattr2010-01-12T07:06:47ZJim Meyeringmeyering@redhat.com2010-01-12T06:58:44Zurn:sha1:6beca4248f572c2503657fb16341bd43cfa7d254
Configure is supposed to detect insufficient XATTR support.
However, if a system has the required headers, but no library,
the configure script would mistakenly enable USE_XATTR.
* m4/xattr.m4 (gl_FUNC_XATTR): If the attr_copy_file function
is not found, don't set USE_XATTR.
Nelson Beebe reported a link failure on RHEL 5.3.
Also, do not let the combination of --disable-xattr and
a stray LIB_XATTR environment setting perturb the build.
* NEWS (Build-related): Mention it.

pr: ensure the page header line is of the required format2010-01-07T04:07:23ZEric Blakeebb9@byu.net2010-01-07T03:57:40Zurn:sha1:67d3e263504115144380dfaffd41c9cef3cf68a4
Before this change, with too long a file name, the name would
abut the date field on the left and possibly also the "Page N"
field on the right, rather than leaving a one-space separator
in each case. Fixes a regression introduced on Mar 6 2009,
by commit a4053c5291d5797734b3e4f042f9e1adf3944fd6
* src/pr.c (print_header): Ensure that there is at least one
space before and after the file name part of the header line.
* NEWS: Mention it.
* tests/pr/W20l24f-ll: s/xPage/ x Page/.
* THANKS: Update.
