It corresponds up to changeset 46abc8c6d8a5e9a5712bdc1312c0b6960eec65a4
omitting ee5cbe9fd6bc02f31b4d955606288de36c3d4eab.
+Several changes have been made for klibc:
+
+* The build system is changed from autotools to kbuild, with a static config.h
+* Use of strtod() is guarded by HAVE_STRTOD, which we don't define
+* The built-in times command, which requires floating-point support, is
+ disabled
+* The signal_names[] array is replaced by a signal_name() function using
+ klibc's own signal name array. decode_signal() is changed similarly.
+* The read built-in implements the -t option like bash
+* mktokens is modified to support out-of-tree builds
+* mkbuiltins is modified to sort with LC_ALL=C
+* Some header files have header guards added
+* Changelog and some manual pages are omitted
+* Automatic whitespace fixups
+
