For some reason, libc exports the symbol .cerror (HIDENAME(cerror)), albeit
in the FBSDprivate_1.0 version. It looks like there is no reason for this
since it is not used from other libraries. Given that it cannot be accessed
from C and its strange calling convention, it is rather unlikely that other
things rely on it. Perhaps it is from a time when symbols could not be
hidden.
Not exporting .cerror causes it to be jumped to directly instead of via the
PLT.
This change also takes advantage of .cerror's new status by not saving and
loading %ebx before jumping to it. (Therefore, .cerror now saves and loads
%ebx itself.) Where there was a conditional jump to a jump to .cerror, the
conditional jump has been changed to jump to .cerror directly (many modern
CPUs don't do static prediction and in any case it is not much of a benefit
anyway).
This change makes libc.so.7 a few kilobytes smaller.

working MI one. The MI one only needs to be overridden on machines
with non-IEEE754 arithmetic. (The last supported one was the VAX.)
It can also be overridden if someone comes up with a faster one that
actually passes the regression tests -- but this is harder than it sounds.
my original implementation made both use the same code. Unfortunately,
this meant libm depended on a vendor header at compile time and previously-
unexposed vendor bits in libc at runtime.
Hence, I just wrote my own version of the relevant vendor routine. As it
turns out, mine has a factor of 8 fewer of lines of code, and is a bit more
readable anyway. The strtod() and *scanf() routines still use vendor code.

net: endhostdnsent is named _endhostdnsent and is
private to netdb family of functions.
posix1e: acl_size.c has been never compiled in,
so there's no "acl_size".
rpc: "getnetid" is a static function.
stdtime: "gtime" is #ifdef'ed out in the source.
some symbols are specific only to some architectures,
e.g., ___tls_get_addr is only defined on i386.
__htonl, __htons, __ntohl and __ntohs are no longer
functions, they are now (internal) defines in
<machine/endian.h>.
