* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Take new option --verify when run directly.
In verify mode, exit with status zero iff the argument object's
PT_INTERP matches argv[0].
* elf/ldd.sh.in: Use ${RTLD} --verify and only run the program if it
exits with zero status. This makes `ldd' secure again.

* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Implement LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS
environment variable handling. This makes the dynamic linker
only print loaded libraries and quit.
* elf/ldd.sh.in: Don't use `rtld --list' but instead
LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS environment variable to print needed
objects.

* db/makedb.c (main): Print version on stdout, not stderr. Don't exit
after printing version until after doing usage for --help.
(long_options, main, usage): Rename -l/--lowercase option to
-f/--fold-case (-f matches sort).

* db/makedb.c: New file. Implement program to create simple <db.h>
database from textual input. This will be used for nss_db.

* sunrpc/rpc/auth_unix.h: Fix misapplied patches in last changes.
* sunrpc/rpc/pmap_clnt.h: Likewise.
* sunrpc/rpc/auth.h: Likewise.
* sunrpc/rpc/pmap_rmt.h: Likewise.
* sunrpc/rpc/rpc_msg.h: Likewise.
Sat Jul 27 04:37:34 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* string/string.h (strndupa): Change to use return value of
`memcpy' for more performance.
* string/strndup.c: Likewise.
* string/string.h (strdupa): Don't call __builtin_alloca in argument.
This might lead to problems.
(strndupa): Likewise.
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.
