* elf/dl-open.c (_dl_open): Call library initializer with
correct command line arguments and environment information.
* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Provide arguments to initializer of
ld.so itself.
Sun Aug 25 19:15:46 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* shadow/Makefile (routines): Add lckpwdf.
* shadow/lckpwdf.c: New file.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu_control.h (_FPU_GETCW, _FPU_SETCW): Force
argument `cw' to be placed in memory. Patch by Torbjorn Granlund.
Sun Aug 25 12:53:37 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* configure.in: Add definition for `__eh_pc' and `__throw' in
test for --no-whole-archive. The compiler generates dependencies
for this but none of the standard librares and startup files
are used. Necessary for gcc >= ss-960816.
Sun Aug 25 01:31:33 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* elf/dl-error.c (_dl_signal_error): If error is catched, malloc
return string since string might be on stack.
* elf/dl-lookup.c (_dl_lookup_symbol): Undo change of
Wed Aug 21 10:14:59 1996.
* elf/dlerror.c (dlerror): Free error string after printing.
(_dlerror_run): If error string was not printed since last error
free string.
* rtld.c (dl_main): Free error string in case of error.
Sat Aug 24 03:16:47 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* misc/syslog.c (vsyslog): Don't use `localtime' or `gmtime' since
this changes the global state for `localtime' and `gmtime'. Use
`__localtime_r'/`__gmtime_r' instead.
* resolv/res_debug.c (__p_secstodate): Likewise.
* sysdeps/generoc/ftime.c: Likewise.
* sysdeps/posix/gettimeofday.c: Likewise.
Reported by Paul Eggert.
* time/gmtime.c: De-ANSI-fy.
* time/strftime.c: Don't call non-reentrant functions which change
state.
Wed Aug 21 10:14:59 1996 Richard Henderson <rth@tamu.edu>
* elf/dl-lookup.c (_dl_lookup_symbol): Malloc the error string rather
than putting it on the stack.
Wed Aug 21 10:12:42 1996 Richard Henderson <rth@tamu.edu>
* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): When looking up symbols in response to --list,
don't find .plt entries.
Mon Aug 19 23:18:12 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
* sysdeps/m68k/dl-machine.h (RTLD_START): Optimize clearing
_dl_starting_up.

* stdio/linewrap.c (line_wrap_stream): Initialize D->seek.
This directory contains the version 1.93 test release of the GNU C Library.
Many bugs have been fixed since the last release.
Some bugs surely remain.
As of this release, the GNU C library has been ported to the following
configurations:
alpha-dec-osf1
i[345]86-*-bsd4.3
i[345]86-*-gnu
i[345]86-*-isc2.2
i[345]86-*-isc3
i[345]86-*-linux
i[345]86-*-sco3.2
i[345]86-*-sco3.2v4
i[345]86-*-sysv
i[345]86-*-sysv4
i[345]86-force_cpu386-none
i[345]86-sequent-bsd
i960-nindy960-none
m68k-hp-bsd4.3
m68k-mvme135-none
m68k-mvme136-none

m68k-sony-newsos4
m68k-sun-sunos4
mips-dec-ultrix4
mips-sgi-irix4
sparc-sun-solaris2
sparc-sun-sunos4
Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port,
please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to
bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu.
The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which
provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points.
Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations,
we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C
library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is
called `glibc-1.93-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt
distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can
also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA
can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk
[129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive
maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives
outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this
distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a
site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws.
See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port
the GNU C library.
The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found
in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and
contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have
the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please
send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and
not to the library bug-reporting address.
The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used
in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what
facilities you want it to make available.
Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu.
The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions.
