reference to it where it makes sense.

Create libdl.so.1 as a filter for libc.so.7 which exports public dl*
functions. The functions are resolved from the rtld instead, the goal
of creating library is to avoid errors from the static linker due to
missed libdl. For static binaries, an empty .o is compiled into
libdl.a so that static binaries still get dl stubs from libc.a.
Right now lld cannot create filter objects, disable libdl on arm64
when binutils are not used.

__dlfunc_t to dlfunc_t to match what I have proposed to the Austin
Group. (This also makes it easier for applications to store these
values before they decide what to do with them, e.g., in a wrapper
function.)
Add new dlfunc() interface, which is a version of dlsym() with a
return type that can be cast to a function pointer without turning
your computer into a frog.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;
.\" $Id$
.\"
If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

function. It was an ill-considered feature. It didn't solve the
problem I wanted it to solve. And it added Yet Another Version

into libc. This reduces the size of every dynamically linked
executable by 248 bytes, and it reduces the size of static executables
by a lesser amount. It also eliminates some global namespace
pollution.
With this change in place, the source for dlfcn.h should probably
be moved to "/usr/src/include". I'll save that for another day.
Compatibility note: Programs which use dlopen, if compiled on
systems with this change, will not run on systems with a libc from
prior to this change. Very few programs use dlopen, so I think
that is OK.
