* manual/signal.texi (Process Signal Mask): Document that
pthread_sigmask, not sigprocmask, must be used in MT programs.

same rule which qsort.c had problems with.
2002-01-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* stdlib/qsort.c (_quicksort): Do not apply the comparison function
to a pivot element that lies outside the array to be sorted, as
ISO C99 requires that the comparison function be called only with
addresses of array elements [PR libc/2880].
2002-01-23 Richard Henderson <rth@redhat.com>
* sysdeps/alpha/Makefile (pic-ccflag): New variable.
2002-01-28 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>

[PR libc/2856].
2002-01-23 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com>
* string/bits/string2.h (__mempcpy): For gcc 3.0+, don't use
__mempcpy_small but instead use __builtin_memcpy ( , , n) + n for
short lengths and constant src.
(strcpy): Don't optimize for gcc 3.0+.
(__stpcpy): For gcc 3.0+, don't use
__stpcpy_small but instead use __builtin_strcpy (, src) + strlen (src)
for short string literal src.
2002-01-23 Jeroen Dobbelaere <jeroen.dobbelaere@acunia.com>

* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/e_lgammal_r.c (__ieee754_lgammal_r):
Remove test for negative integer arg; sin_pi does it correctly.
2002-01-19 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* libio/fileops.c (_IO_file_underflow_mmap): Don't define as static.
Set offset if read end wasn't the buffer end.
(_IO_file_seekoff_mmap): New function.
(_IO_file_xsgetn_mmap): New function.
(_IO_file_jumps_mmap): Use the two new functions.
* libio/wfileops.c (_IO_wfile_underflow_mmap): Handle end read buffer
!= end buffer.

more efficient "Towers of Hanoi" mergesort.
(hanoi_sort, hanoi_sort_int, hanoi_sort_long): New functions,
for generic, sizeof(int) and sizeof(long) variants respectively.
* manial/syslog.texi (openlog): Describe possible problems with
first parameter.
Patch by Christopher Allen Wing <wingc@engin.umich.edu>.
2002-01-17 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
