LINK_SPEC. This solves a problem with the f77 frontend where
aproviding the -r8 option (use REAL*8) caused `cc' to ``forget'' to
pass the entry point to the linker.

Since there is an open problem report (gnu/289) for this it might be
of interest for (some of) you.
I (Joerg) have also added a minor hack that makes info recognizing a

bootparam_prot.x was changed for nfsv3 but bootparamd and callbootd
kept using the old version which fortunately failed at build time.
Copying hasn't been necessary since path handling was fixed in

on dlclose. Also correctly call constructors and destructors for libraries
linked with /usr/lib/c++rt0.o.
Change interpretation of dlopen manpage to call _init() rather than init()
for dlopened objects.
Change c++rt0.o to avoid using atexit to call destructors, allowing dlclose to
call destructors when an object is unloaded.
Change interface between crt0 and ld.so to allow crt0 to call a function on
exit to call destructors for shared libraries explicitly.
These changes are backwards compatible. Old binaries will work with the new
ld.so and new binaries will work with the old ld.so. A version number has
been introduced in the crt0-ld.so interface to allow for future changes.

cpio/copyout.c:
Don't output a file if the major, minor or totality of its rdev would be
truncated. Print a message about the skipped files to stderr but don't
report the error in the exit status. cpio's abysmal error handling doesn't
allow continuing after an error, and the rdev checks had to be misplaced
to avoid the problem of returning an error code from routines that return
void.
pax/pax.h:
Use the system macros for major(), minor() and makedev().
pax already checks _all_ output conversions for overflow. This has the
undesirable effect that failure to convert relatively useless fields
such as st_dev for regular files causes files not to be output. pax
doesn't report exactly which fields couldn't be converted.
tar/create.c:
Don't output a file if the major or minor its rdev would be truncated.
Print a message about the skipped files to stderr and report the error
in the exit status.
tar/tar.c:
For not immediately fatal errors, exit with status 1, not the error count
(mod 256).
All:
Minor numbers are limited to 21 bits in pax's ustar format and to 18
bits in archives created by gnu tar (gnu tar wastes 3 bits for padding).
pax's and cpio's ustar format is incompatible with gnu tar's ustar
format for other reasons (see cpio/README).
now safely add a line like
ldconfig -m ${PREFIX}/lib
in ports' Makefiles and packing lists without throwing away some
directories the user may have added.

*HACK ALERT*
Removed -lcompat from LDADD and bring in the necessary functions out of

The shlib code is not capable of supporting this feature in it's present
state and will need significant modifications in order to do so.
in libc, we can get rid of the private/special copies of yp_*.c
files and rpcgen them at compile time instead. This leaves us with
just one unique source files: yppush.c
