Global changes
--------------

- Build system
- Update PDF book for groff-1.23.0.
- Add targets to [un]install intro(*) pages separately.
- Support manual pages in other projects, so that our build system
can be used to for example lint them.
- Reject non-GNU make(1).
- Add target to build the PDF book.

- man*/
- Add some consistency in the use of man(7).
- Split proc(5) into many small pages.
- Import pages from old linuxthreads (glibc), with their git
history (from both glibc and Debian).
- Rewrite a large part of the documentation for string-copying
functions.
- Say ISO/IEC instead of ISO where appropriate, and be consistent in
the fomatting of names of ISO or ISO/IEC standards.


Changes to individual pages
---------------------------

The manual pages (and other files in the repository) have been improved
beyond what this changelog covers. To learn more about changes applied
to individual pages, use git(1).
