Global changes
--------------

-  Build system
   !  Stamp the versions on the pages at install time, instead of dist
      time.  This change is important, because downstream packagers will
      need to `make install` instead of just copying the pages.
      The benefit of this is that downstream distributors are now able
      to set their own distro-specific version strings.  The most common
      thing that I'd expect is setting a suffix such as '-1', which can
      be done with `make install EXTRAVERSION=3D-1`.
      Another benefit is that downstream patches that apply near the
      TH line will have to be refreshed less often, since the TH line
      will not necessarily change in every release.
   -  Reorganize build system
   -  Improve support for Darwin systems.
   -  Remove any generated files (fonts) from the repository, and
      generate them at build time.
   -  Various improvements to the generation of the PDF book.

-  man
   -  Move manual pages to a new directory man/, so that they are now
      under man/man*/.  Symlinks have been added for convenience.

-  git
   -  Import pthread_*.3 link pages' git history from debian/glibc.git

-  CONTRIBUTING.d
   -  Add help for using git-config(1), git-send-email(1),
      git-range-diff(1), and [neo]mutt(1).


Changes to individual files
