This fixes some porting problems discovered when testing the latest grep snapshot on AIX 7.1. I don't think if fixes any bugs in grep but it could be important for other applications. * doc/posix-functions/dup2.texi: * doc/posix-functions/fcntl.texi: * doc/posix-headers/fcntl.texi: Document AIX bugs. * lib/fcntl.in.h (O_CLOEXEC, O_NOFOLLOW, O_TTY_INIT) [_AIX]: Define to 0 if outside 'int' range. * m4/dup2.m4 (gl_FUNC_DUP2): * m4/fcntl.m4 (gl_FUNC_FCNTL): Check for getdtablesize. If it's available, test a value just outside its range instead of testing 1000000. When cross-compiling, guess that AIX will fail this improved test.
