Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
There’s no longer need to have QUIT stand for a slug of C statements.
Use the more-obvious function-call syntax instead.
Also, use true and false when setting immediate_quit.
These changes should not affect the generated machine code.
* src/lisp.h (QUIT): Remove. All uses replaced by maybe_quit.
This improves performance overall on my benchmark on x86-64,
since the interpreted program-counter resides in a machine
register rather than in RAM.
* etc/DEBUG, src/.gdbinit: Remove xbytecode GDB command, as there
is no longer a byte stack to decode.
* src/bytecode.c (struct byte_stack, byte_stack_list)
(relocate_byte_stack): Remove. All uses removed.
(FETCH): Simplify now that pc is now local (typically, in a
register) and no longer needs to be relocated.
(CHECK_RANGE): Remove. All uses now done inline, in a different way.
(BYTE_CODE_QUIT): Remove; now done by op_relative_branch.
(exec_byte_code): Allocate a copy of the function’s bytecode,
so that there is no problem if GC moves it.
* src/lisp.h (struct handler): Remove byte_stack member.
All uses removed.
* src/thread.c (unmark_threads): Remove. All uses removed.
* src/thread.h (struct thread_state): Remove m_byte_stack_list member.
All uses removed. m_stack_bottom is now the first non-Lisp field.

Problem reported by Kylie McClain for musl in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-03/msg01592.html
* etc/DEBUG, etc/NEWS: Mention this.
* src/callproc.c (child_setup) [!MSDOS]:
* src/dispnew.c (init_display):
* src/emacs.c (main, Fdaemon_initialized):
* src/minibuf.c (read_minibuf_noninteractive):
* src/regex.c (xmalloc, xrealloc):
Prefer symbolic names like STDERR_FILENO to magic numbers like 2,
to make file-descriptor manipulation easier to follow.
* src/emacs.c (relocate_fd) [!WINDOWSNT]: Remove; no longer needed
now that we make sure stdin, stdout and stderr are open. All uses
removed.
(main): Make sure standard FDs are OK. Prefer symbolic names like
EXIT_FAILURE to magic numbers like 1. Use bool for boolean.
* src/lisp.h (init_standard_fds): New decl.
* src/print.c (WITH_REDIRECT_DEBUGGING_OUTPUT) [GNU_LINUX]:
Remove; no longer needed.
(Fredirect_debugging_output): Define on all platforms, not just
GNU/Linux. Redirect file descriptor, not stream, so that the code
works even if stderr is not an lvalue. Report an error if the
file arg is neither a string nor nil.
(syms_of_print): Always define redirect-debugging-output.
* src/sysdep.c (force_open, init_standard_fds): New functions.
* etc/DEBUG: Add the "Preliminaries" section for GDB beginners.
Most of the content was suggested by Phillip Lord
<phillip.lord@russet.org.uk>. Remove the section about debugging
with the Visual Studio, as building Emacs with the Microsoft
compilers is no longer supported. Minor fixes in some other
sections.
* configure.in (C_OPTIMIZE_SWITCH, CANNOT_DUMP, SYSTEM_MALLOC):
(USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS, C_WARNING_SWITCH): Set with shell, not cpp.
(LIBX): Remove, just use -lX11 in the one place this was used.
(cannot_dump): Replace with CANNOT_DUMP.
* src/Makefile.in (CANNOT_DUMP): Update for configure name change.
* src/s/freebsd.h (USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS):
* src/s/irix6-5.h (USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS):
* src/s/darwin.h (SYSTEM_MALLOC):
* src/s/sol2-10.h (SYSTEM_MALLOC): Move to configure.
* src/m/alpha.h: Remove old comment.
* src/s/aix4-2.h: Update comment.
* src/s/template.h: Remove USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS.
* msdos/sed1v2.inp (CANNOT_DUMP): Update for configure name change.
* admin/CPP-DEFINES: Remove USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS, CANNOT_DUMP.
* etc/DEBUG: Update SYSTEM_MALLOC and CANNOT_DUMP references.
Some re-filling.
