I have completed build attempts for texinfo-7.1.0.91 that cover
several major Unix-family operating systems, and different CPU
architectures (including both big- and little-endian), and got nearly
perfect success, with 0 validation failures: builds succeeded on 55 of
58 systems.
Two of the three failures were for older compilers; on both those
systems, builds with newer compiler versions passed all tests.
The one complete failure was for MidnightBSD 3.0.0, released and
installed in March 2023. On that system, the libintl package is not
available, and compilation fails with
parsetexi/api.c:33:10: fatal error: 'libintl.h' file not found
#include <libintl.h>
^~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Apart from that system, which has only a small user base, I consider
the texinfo-7.1.0.91 release a substantial success. Thanks for
keeping it working close to everywhere!
