Zack Weinberg f0be25b633 Rename xlocale.h to bits/types/__locale_t.h.
xlocale.h is already a single-type micro-header, defining struct
__locale_struct and the typedefs __locale_t and locale_t.  This patch
brings it into the bits/types/ scheme: there are now
bits/types/__locale_t.h which defines only __locale_struct and
__locale_t, and bits/types/locale_t.h which defines locale_t as well
as the other two.  None of *our* headers need __locale_t.h, but it
appears to me that libstdc++ could make use of it.

There are a lot of external uses of xlocale.h, but all the uses I
checked had an autoconf test or equivalent for its existence.  It has
never been available from other C libraries, and it has always
contained a comment reading "This file is not standardized, don't rely
on it, it can go away without warning" so I think dropping it is
pretty safe.

I also took the opportunity to clean up comments in various public
header files that still talk about the *_l interfaces as though they
were completely nonstandard.  There are a few of them, notably the
strtoX_l and wcstoX_l families, that haven't been standardized, but
the bulk are in POSIX.1-2008.

        * locale/xlocale.h: Rename to...
	* locale/bits/types/__locale_t.h: ...here.  Adjust commentary.
	Only define struct __locale_struct and __locale_t, not locale_t.
        * locale/bits/types/locale_t.h: New file; define locale_t here.
        * locale/Makefile (headers): Update to match.

        * include/xlocale.h: Delete wrapper.
        * include/bits/types/__locale_t.h: New wrapper.
        * include/bits/types/locale_t.h: New wrapper.

        * ctype/ctype.h, include/printf.h, include/time.h
        * locale/langinfo.h, locale/locale.h, stdlib/monetary.h
        * stdlib/stdlib.h, string/string.h, string/strings.h, time/time.h
        * wcsmbs/wchar.h, wctype/wctype.h: Use bits/types/locale_t.h.
        Correct outdated comments regarding the standardization status of
        the functions that take locale_t arguments.

        * stdlib/strtod_l.c, stdlib/strtof_l.c, stdlib/strtol_l.c
        * stdlib/strtold_l.c, stdlib/strtoul_l.c, stdlib/strtoull_l.c
        * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/strtold_l.c
        * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-64-128/strtold_l.c
        * wcsmbs/wcstod.c, wcsmbs/wcstod_l.c, wcsmbs/wcstof.c
        * wcsmbs/wcstof_l.c, wcsmbs/wcstold.c, wcsmbs/wcstold_l.c:
        Don't include xlocale.h. If necessary, include locale.h instead.

        * stdlib/strtold_l.c: Unconditionally include wchar.h.

WUR-REPORT

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.  The current
GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be
incorporated into an official GNU C Library release.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	hppa-*-linux-gnu	Not currently functional without patches.
	i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu
	x86_64-*-linux-gnu	Can build either x86_64 or x32
	ia64-*-linux-gnu
	m68k-*-linux-gnu
	microblaze*-*-linux-gnu
	mips-*-linux-gnu
	mips64-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.
	s390-*-linux-gnu
	s390x-*-linux-gnu
	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu
	sparc*-*-linux-gnu
	sparc64*-*-linux-gnu
	tilegx-*-linux-gnu
	tilepro-*-linux-gnu

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) 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.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
