+Subject: [PATCH] AC_HEADER_MAJOR: port to glibc 2.25
+
+glibc 2.25 is deprecating the namespace pollution of <sys/types.h>
+injecting major(), minor(), and makedev() into the compilation
+environment, with a warning that insists that users include
+<sys/sysmacros.h> instead. However, because the expansion of
+AC_HEADER_MAJOR didn't bother checking sys/sysmacros.h until
+after probing whether sys/types.h pollutes the namespace, it was
+not defining MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS, with the result that code
+compiled with -Werror chokes on the deprecation warnings because
+it was not including sysmacros.h.
+
+In addition to fixing autoconf (which only benefits projects
+that rebuild configure after this fix is released), we can also
+give a hint to distros on how they can populate config.site with
+a cache variable to force pre-existing configure scripts without
+the updated macro to behave sanely in the presence of glibc 2.25
+(the documentation is especially useful since that cache variable
+is no longer present in autoconf after this patch).
+
+Note that mingw lacks major/minor/makedev in any of its standard
+headers; for that platform, the behavior of this macro is unchanged
+(code using the recommended include formula will get a compile error
+when trying to use major(), whether before or after this patch); but
+for now, it is assumed that programs actually concerned with
+creating devices are not worried about portability to mingw. If
+desired, a later patch could tighten AC_HEADER_MAJOR to fail at
+configure time if the macros are unavailable in any of the three
+system headers, but that semantic change is not worth mixing into
+this patch.
+
+* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_MAJOR): Drop check for
+major within sys/types.h; it interferes with the need to check
+sysmacros.h first.
+* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Headers) <AC_HEADER_MAJOR>: Expand
+details on usage, and on workarounds for non-updated projects.

++# Check whether <sys/types.h> compiles.
++# If <sys/mkdev.h> compiles, assume it provides major/minor/makedev.
++# Otherwise, if <sys/sysmacros.h> compiles, assume it provides the macros.
++# Otherwise, either the macros were provided by <sys/types.h>, or do
++# not exist on the platform. Code trying to use these three macros is
++# assumed to not care about platforms that lack the macros.
