I have held this back for over a year, as we will always have to wrestle
with the question of "*which* libiberty sources to use". Sigh, if only
the GNU people would treat it as a totally separate library from GCC, et al.
and release it as such...
"locailzed"; it should read "localized".
* The "test" operator can be a bit dangerous (e.g., if
a newbie writes a script named "test" and has it call
"apropos", which calls "test, ...).
* In its use as "whatis", apropos formats the first
line of the output differently than the following
lines. Specifically, it leaves out all but one of
the spaces that precede the dash in the first line.

of stuff (and thus length of error output) we put on the invocation command
line. Also follow the new FSF/GNU style of giving the symbol a value so it
can be used in `if()' statements in addition to `#if' so seldomly compiled
in code (on some platforms) gets compiled always, to help reduce bit-rot.

current_file_name and current_link_name sometimes point into the
middle of malloc()ed memory and sometimes point to alloca()ed memory,
but free() is sometimes called on them. This seems to be harmless
for the usual tar operations, but it is usually fatal for `tar -W'.
E.g., for `cd /etc; tar Wcf /tmp/foo rc', at the start of
verify_volume(), current_file_name points to alloca()ed memory, and
tar attempts to free it.
groff(1) devices for localized and non-localized pages.
Currently, for *.ISO_8859-1 locales the device in both
cases is "latin1", and for KOI8-R locale it is "koi8-r"
for localized and "ascii" for non-localized pages.

change out that made libperl.so dynamically depend on libutil.so to pick
up setproctitle() in its old location. This breaks changes involving
incomptabable libc's because ld looks for the dynamic dependency
(which it has no business doing anyway) in the wrong place - /usr/lib!
call and trap entry points so they're easy to find and change
- Use the cpuhead and allcpu list to locate globaldata for the current
cpu, rather than SMP_prvspace or __globaldata
- Use offsets into struct globaldata directly to find per-cpu variables,
rather than symbols in globals.o
