* elf/rtld.c [! NDEBUG] (__assert_perror_fail): New function.
* hurd/hurdstartup.c (_hurd_startup): Fancier kludge to guess phdr
and user entry point addresses.
* elf/dl-load.c (open_path): Don't do strlen on DIRPATH if it's null.
(_dl_map_object): DT_RPATH value is relative to DT_STRTAB value.
* Makerules (install-lib.so): Don't include libc.so.
[$(build-shared)=yes] (install): Depend on the installed libc.so file.
[$(build-shared)=yes] (install-no-libc.a): Make this, rather than
install, depend on the installed $(install-lib.so) files.
[$(build-shared)=yes] (install-lib.so): Append libc.so after that rule.
* sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c (_dl_sysdep_start): Add kludge to
allocate high addresses to avoid random mappings appearing there.
(mmap): Comment out mask; always pass zero.

* sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (ELF_MACHINE_USER_ADDRESS_MASK): New macro.
* sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c (mmap): Use it as mask in vm_map call.
* elf/dl-error.c (_dl_catch_error): Clear *ERRSTRING and *OBJNAME
when successful.
* sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c (threadvars): New static variable.
(__hurd_threadvar_max, __hurd_threadvar_stack_offset): Define these
variables, using the `threadvars' buffer.
* elf/dl-reloc.c: Don't dereference L->l_prev when it's null.
* sysdeps/i386/dl-runtime.c: Likewise.
* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Add missing NULL terminating argument in
_dl_sysdep_fatal call.
(__assert_fail): Likewise.
* locale/Makefile (localedef-modules): Renamed ctype to
locale-ctype so as not to conflict with the object file for
ctype/ctype.c in the build directory.
* sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rel): If MAP->l_type is
lt_interpreter, first undo relocation done during bootstrapping.
This directory contains the version 1.09.6 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
i386-bsd4.3
i386-force_cpu386-none
i386-gnu (for Hurd development only)
i386-isc2.2
i386-isc3
i386-sco3.2
i386-sco3.2v4
i386-sequent-bsd
i386-sysv
i386-sysv4
i960-nindy960-none
m68k-hp-bsd4.3
m68k-mvme135-none
m68k-mvme136-none
m68k-sony-newsos3
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-1.09.6-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.
