On the one hand, libWINGs wasn't linking against -lX11 when it should
have been. And on the other, only libWINGs needs Xft, only wmaker needs
Xrandr, only wmaker and wmsetbg need Xinerama, only libwraster needs
Xmu, and -lpng may not need -lz.
Cleaning this up can help distributions get their dependencies correct,
and might even avoid loading the unused libraries at runtime, so we may
as well do it.

On BSD systems, strlcat and strlcpy are included in the C library and
nothing special is needed. On Linux systems they are not, but libbsd may
be available to provide them. Use it if so.
This also adds wstrlcat and wstrlcpy instead of trying to maybe-provide
strlcat and strlcpy themselves, as that way there is no risk of symbol
conflicts. Not bumping the library version at this time, that should be
done (if necessary) before release.

I just spent an hour trying to find out why the latest wmaker-crm was
ignoring a number of the preferences in my configuration file. It turns
out the problem was that commit f41db5 added a value into the middle of
the enum in src/keybind.h, and the setting of
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = no-dependencies in all the Makefile.ams meant that
make wasn't smart enough to rebuild the files depending on it.
Would anyone mind if we just remove no-dependencies from
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS? People can still run ./configure with
--disable-dependency-tracking to disable it at configure time.
Keep libtool's -version-info arguments for the three libraries
(libwraster, libWINGs and libWUtil) centralized in configure.ac
instead of in the specific Makefile.am.
The code was added in 2001 in commit acdc0e3d6b for
"backwards compat". This motivation no longer exists in 2010,
so there is no reason to keep a private implementation of
a standard function from the C library.
Instead of using the --disable-verbose-compile hack, let's
use the standard option --enable-silent-rules (or 'make V=0' directly)
available with autoconf 1.11 and higher.
This is enabled in autoconf by using 'silent-rules' in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
The verbosity of compilation is reduced in a similar manner as using
the --disable-verbose-compile option, so we can remove all that ugly
hackery.
libWINGs is using mathematical functions (atan, sqrt, etc.). Check
whether we need to lik against libm to use these and link libWINGs
against it if necessary.
libWINGs is using libwraster functions (e.g. RScaleImage) and therefore
needs to be linked against it.
ametzler@argenau:/tmp/WMAKER/wmaker-crm$ env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=debian/wmaker/usr/lib ldd -r debian/wmaker/usr/lib/libWINGs.so.2.0.1 2>&1 | grep RScaleIma
undefined symbol: RScaleImage (debian/wmaker/usr/lib/libWINGs.so.2.0.1)
libWINGs is using libWUtil functions (e.g. WMAddIdleHandler). Reorder
lib_LTLIBRARIES to build libWUtil before libWINGs. Link libWINGs against
libWUtil.
The "make dist" command can be used to generate the release tarball, but
only if the Makefile.am correctly specifies EXTRA_DIST, specifies
headers in foo_SOURCES, and so on.
As the README used to say, it was a unfinished work. If someone
wants to finish it after all these years it can be recovered
from the logs. But meanwhile let's not carry dead code around.
This patch modifies the linking of the WINGs libraries
to create a shared library. wmaker used to do this, but
it was dropped around wmaker-0.90/0.91.
The shared .so library is needed when compiling and running
the wdm display manager and any other programs which link
to libWINGs.

This patch adds the --disable-verbose-compile switch to the
configure script.
When this option is used it reduces the verbosity of compilation
messages to the essential. However compiler warnings are not affected
and thus gain visibility by not standing in the middle of a storm
of other messages.
In summary, the compilation messages are reduced to a stream of
CC array.o
CC bagtree.o
CC configuration.o
CC connection.o
CC data.o

- Fixed bug in icon chooser dialog that could cause a segmentation fault
in some cases (Pascal Hofstee <caelian@gmail.com>)
- Fixed crash in asm code in wrlib, with new versions of gcc.
- Fixed bug in the x86_PseudoColor_32_to_8() function which incorrectly
used the r, g, b fields in the conversion.
- Fixed x86 ASM code in wrlib to work on 64 bit architectures.
- Fixed the focus flicker seen with some apps (notably gtk2)
(Alexey Spiridonov <snarkmaster@gmail.com>)
- Fixed all crashing bugs that were generated by wmaker starting with the
WMState file missing.
- Added NetWM support (a modified version of the patch originaly written
by Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Applied patch to enhance the Virtual Desktop behaviour, and to integrate
it with the NetWM code (Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Applied a few xinerama and placement fixes (Peter Zijlstra
<a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Fixed memory leak in dock code.
- Fixed and enhanced the text wrapping in WINGs.
- Fixed the layout of some elements in WPrefs.app
- Added workaround for aplications that don't set the required hints on the
client leader window, but they set them on normal windows (observer with
KDE 3.3.0 mainly). This will allow these apps to get an appicon again.
(they should be fixed still)
- Added workaround for applications that do not set a command with
XSetCommand(), but instead they set the _NET_WM_PID property. This works
with operating systems that offer a /proc interface similar to what linux
has. (This also is to fix problems with KDE 3.3.0 apps, but not only them).
- Fixed bug with autostart and exit scripts not being executed if user
GNUstep path was different from ~/GNUstep (when setting GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT)
- Added utf8 support in WINGs (removed old X core font code)
- Added utility to convert old font names to new font names in style files
- Also tested the backward compatibility ability of the WINGs proplist code
which seems to work quite well.
Starting with this moment, Window Maker no longer needs libPropList and is
now using the better and much more robust proplist code from WINGs. Also the
WINGs based proplist code is actively maintained while the old libPropList
code is practically dead and flawed by the fact that it borrowed concepts
from the UserDefaults which conflicted with the retain/release mechanism,
making some problems that libPropList had, practically unsolvable without a
complete redesign (which can be found in the more robust WINGs code).
