* Major changes in release 5.3.1 (2005-??-??) [unstable]
pathchk changes:
It now rejects the empty name in the normal case. That is,
"pathchk -p ''" now fails, and "pathchk ''" fails unless the
current host (contra POSIX) allows empty file names.
The new -P option checks whether a file name component has leading "-",
as suggested in interpretation "Austin-039:XCU:pathchk:pathchk -p"
<http://www.opengroup.org/austin/interps/doc.tpl?gdid=6232>.
It also rejects the empty name even if the current host accepts it; see
<http://www.opengroup.org/austin/interps/doc.tpl?gdid=6233>.
The --portability option is now equivalent to -p -P.
* Major changes in release 5.3.0 (2005-01-08) [unstable]
