Hello hackers,

It is my great pleasure to announce the release of GLOBAL-4.7.1.
You can download it from <http://www.gnu.org/software/global/download.html>.

New features:
* Support home_etc(3) facility on PLD Linux/GNU.
* gctags: Pick up external defined functions as symbols.

Fixed bugs:
* GLOBAL-4.3 and the later cannot treat shadow tree.
* GLOBAL doesn't work with the GNU sort(1) based on POSIX 1003.1-2001.

[Additional explanation of the latter bug]

On some recent GNU/Linux system, the following errors might happen.

        $ gtags
        sort: invalid option -- 1
        Try `sort --help' for more information.
        sort: invalid option -- 1
        Try `sort --help' for more information.
        ....
        $

Internally, GLOBAL uses sort(1) with +POS1[-POS2] style option.
But on the recent Linux distributions, sort command does not accept
such style as a obosolete one.
To solve this problem, we changed the call form of sort(1) to satisfy
POSIX 1003.1-2001. So, please replace your GLOBAL with this version
if you meet the above errors.

Enjoy!
