Reformat copyright. * elf/rtld.c (_dl_start): Don't dereference the value returned by elf_machine_got to get _DYNAMIC, instead call new function elf_machine_dynamic. * sysdeps/alpha/dl-machine.h: Permute elf_machine_got to elf_machine_dynamic. Reformat copyright. * sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/m68k/dl-machine.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/mips/dl-machine.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/dl-machine.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/stub/dl-machine.h: Likewise.

Tue Dec 3 02:06:18 1996 Ulrich Drepper * Makerules ($(libdir)/libc.so): Make first line of generated link script contain `/* GNU ld script'. This will be used in ldconfig to check for linker scripts. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/libc-ldscript: Likewise. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/libc_p-ldscript: Likewise. * stdlib/getsubopt.c: Update copyright.
