2 days ago We will soon release 4.17.0, around Christmas/Solstice. The first RC (release candidate) will be out around St. Nick's day.
Is St. Nick's December 6? I am not used to using the calendar of saints.
Here's a set of PRs, in the order of priority (IMO):
It's good to have this list, as there are lots of PRs to take care of

Hi!
We will soon release 4.17.0, around Christmas/Solstice. The first RC (release candidate) will be out around St. Nick's day.
Here's a set of PRs, in the order of priority (IMO):
Pending:
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1093 This one needs very careful review. If you have the slightest doubts, please skip it. Still, it's interesting because I have many patches that depend on this one in my local tree.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1109 Contains a lot of patches simplifying mostly a single function. Each patch is more-or-less trivial, but there are many. I have some other patches after this one, so it'd be interesting to have it done before the release
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1107 Trivial stuff; just silences diagnostics.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1110 Trivial stuff. Remove fall-back code for pre-ANSI C, which is now dead.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1118 Trivial stuff. Remove autotools-based header checks, and replace them by a common cc(1) feature.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1111 Trivial stuff. Remove some build-system check for an old libc bug that was present in the times of Red Hat 3.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1125 Trivial stuff. Remove obsolete check.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1101 Trivial stuff. Just some pedantic POSIX stuff.
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/1119 Some simplification of csrand(). Just review if everything else is done, but we can live without it.
