devel/libiberty 1.0nb2 NetBSD

This package provides the -liberty library of "missing" functions. It is a collection of subroutines used by various GNU programs. Current members include:

    getopt -- get options from command line
    obstack -- stacks of arbitrarily-sized objects
    strerror -- error message strings corresponding to errno
    strtol -- string-to-long conversion
    strtoul -- string-to-unsigned-long conversion

The functions in liberty are normally included, as needed, by GNU packages to make up for functions not found in the operating system.

This copy of liberty has been extracted from the gcc-3.4.0 release distribution.
