* libc-symbols.h [GCC >= 2.7] (strong_alias, weak_alias): Use extern
	storage class.  GCC gives an error for non-extern data defns with the
	alias attribute.

Mon Jul  8 00:11:15 1996  Roland McGrath  <roland@delasyd.gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* libc-symbols.h (weak_function): New macro.
	For GCC 2.7+ define as __attribute__ ((weak)).
	* elf/dl-minimal.c: Use weak_function as keyword in function defns
 	instead of weak_symbol (NAME) after the defn.
	* stdlib/strtol.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c: Likewise.

	* sysdeps/alpha/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela) [RTLD_BOOTSTRAP]:
	If this is defined, don't declare _dl_rtld_map as weak, and
	don't check for MAP pointing to it.  RESOLVE is always null in this
	case, so test with #ifdef instead of if.

	* libc-symbols.h (symbol_set_declare): Use weak_extern instead of
	weak_symbol.
	* csu/initfini.c (_init): Likewise.
	* locale/setlocale.c (DEFINE_CATEGORY): Likewise.
	* misc/efgcvt_r.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/alpha/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rel): Likewise.

	* libc-symbols.h [ASSEMBLER] (weak_symbol): Macro removed.
	It was not used in any assembler code.
	(weak_symbol_asm): Renamed to weak_extern_asm.
	(weak_extern): New macro replaces weak_symbol for weak extern refs;
	define to weak_extern_asm for [!ASSEMBLER].

	* libc-symbols.h [! ASSEMBLER] [HAVE_WEAK_SYMBOLS] (weak_symbol_asm,
	weak_alias_asm): New macros, renamed from weak_symbol/weak_alias;
	define those now as aliases.
	Change conditional to use __attribute__ syntax for GCC 2.7+, not 2.8+
	[GCC >= 2.7] [HAVE_WEAK_SYMBOLS] (weak_symbol): Do weak_symbol_asm
	after GCC weak attribute decl.

This directory contains the version 1.92 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-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-1.92-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.
