8+9+ stdio: don't assume gets any more
10+11+ Gnulib intentionally does not have a gets module, and now that C11
12+ and glibc have dropped it, we should be more proactive about warning
13+ any user on a platform that still has a declaration of this dangerous
14+ interface.
15+16+ * m4/stdio_h.m4 (gl_STDIO_H, gl_STDIO_H_DEFAULTS): Drop gets
17+ support.
18+ * modules/stdio (Makefile.am): Likewise.
19+ * lib/stdio-read.c (gets): Likewise.
20+ * tests/test-stdio-c++.cc: Likewise.
21+ * m4/warn-on-use.m4 (gl_WARN_ON_USE_PREPARE): Fix comment.
22+ * lib/stdio.in.h (gets): Make warning occur in more places.
23+ * doc/posix-functions/gets.texi (gets): Update documentation.
24+ Reported by Christer Solskogen.
