Programming:
- Grep for 'XXX' comments and fix
-- Integrate contrib/mdoc2man.pl so platforms which only have the troff
- 'an' macros can have readable manpages.
+- Link order is incorrect for some systems using Kerberos 4 and AFS. Result
+ is multiple inclusion of DES symbols. Holger Trapp
+ <holger.trapp@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de> reports that changing the configure
+ generated link order from:
+ -lresolv -lkrb -lz -lnsl -lutil -lkafs -lkrb -ldes -lcrypto
+ to:
+ -lresolv -lkrb -lz -lnsl -lutil -lcrypto -lkafs -lkrb -ldes
+ fixing the problem.
- Write a test program that calls stat() to search for EGD/PRNGd socket
rather than use the (non-portable) "test -S".
and order to try them in e.g. "ChallengeResponseAuthentication skey, pam"
- Complete Tru64 SIA support
+ - It looks like we could merge it into the password auth code to cut down
+ on diff size. Maybe PAM password auth too?
- Finish integrating kernel-level auditing code for IRIX and SOLARIS
(Gilbert.r.loomis@saic.com)
- Build an automated test suite
-- Verify that It's safe to enable NGROUPS_MAX under NeXTStep for
- groupaccess features. (mouring@eviladmin.org)
-
- 64-bit builds on HP-UX 11.X (stevesk@pobox.com):
- utmp/wtmp get corrupted (something in loginrec?)
- - no 64-bit vhangup(); ptmx systems shouldn't need this
- can't build with PAM (no 64-bit libpam yet)
Documentation:
- Create a Documentation/ directory?
Clean up configure/makefiles:
-- Clean up configure.in - There are a few double #defined variables
+- Clean up configure.ac - There are a few double #defined variables
left to do. HAVE_LOGIN is one of them. Consider NOT looking for
information in wtmpx or utmpx or any of that stuff if it's not detected
from the start
- Consider splitting the u_intXX_t test for sys/bitype.h into seperate test
to allow people to (right/wrongfully) link against Bind directly.
+- Consider splitting configure.ac into seperate files which do logically
+ similar tests. E.g move all the type detection stuff into one file,
+ entropy related stuff into another.

Packaging:
- Solaris: Update packaging scripts and build new sysv startup scripts
Ideally the package metadata should be generated by autoconf.
