It's an old approach, by Paul, for allowing applications to see which
gnulib m
what does GNULIB_PORTCHECK mean?
e.g.,
./config.log:REPLACE_TIMEGM='GNULIB_PORTCHECK'
the only mention I see is time_h.m4:
dnl If another module says to replace or to not replace, do that.
dnl Otherwise, replace only if someone compiles with -DGNULIB_PORTCHECK;
dnl this lets m
The macro GNULIB_PORTCHECK, used in time.in.h, effectively means the same
as GNULIB_POSIXCHECK. It dates back to a time when Eric had not implemented
GNULIB_POSIXCHECK and not invented warn-on-use.
This patch modernizes this code and uses the common idiom.
