alternative, I present .. ta! da! .. the __error() hack.
This patch to the a.out dynamic loader provides old a.out binaries
with __error() if they are linked with an older libc that lacks it,
but are also linked against a library that needs it.
There is a smaller, tricker hack that takes advantage of the fact
that ld.so has __error() too, courtesy of the new libc, but this
hack is the straightforward version.
Move a.out libraries to /usr/lib/aout to make space for ELF libs.
Make rtld usr /usr/lib/aout as default library path.
Make ldconfig reject /usr/lib as an a.out library path.
Fix various Makefiles for LIBDIR!=/usr/lib breakage.
This will after a make world & reboot give a system that no
longer uses /usr/lib/*, infact one could remove all the old
libraries there, they are not used anymore.
We are getting close to an ELF make world, but I'll let this
all settle for a week or two...

Fix INTERNAL_LS to sense new /etc/localtime after chroot
any case.
It makes no difference for anon account (since chroot already makes it GMT),

MOUNT_LFS to "lfs" in one place. The merge was painful because it

emacs a.out file, self-generated by emacs's "unexec" function in
"unexsunos4.c", is invalid. In particular, its "_end" symbol has
the wrong value. The dynamic linker was using the value of that
symbol to initialize its sbrk break level.
The workaround is to peek at the executable's a.out header in
memory, and calculate what "_end" should be based on the segment
sizes.
I will work out a fix for emacs and send it to the FSF. This
dynamic linker workaround is still worthwhile, if only to avoid
forcing all emacs users to build a new version.
Note: xemacs gives a bogus warning at startup, for related reasons.
The warning is harmless and can safely be ignored. I will send a

things so that it uses the same malloc as is used by the program
being executed. This has several advantages, the big one being
that you can now debug core dumps from dynamically linked programs
and get useful information out of them. Until now, that didn't
work. The internal malloc package placed the tables describing
the loaded shared libraries in a mapped region of high memory that
was not written to core files. Thus the debugger had no way of
determining what was loaded where in memory. Now that the dynamic
linker uses the application's malloc package (normally, but not
necessarily, the system malloc), its tables end up in the regular
heap area where they will be included in core dumps. The debugger
now works very well indeed, thank you very much.

This change changes the default handling of linemode so that older and/or
stupider telnet clients can still get wakeup characters like <ESC> and
<CTRL>D to work correctly multiple times on the same line, as in csh
"set filec" operations. It also causes CR and LF characters to be read by
apps in certain terminal modes consistently, as opposed to returning
CR sometimes and LF sometimes, which broke existing apps. The change
was shown to fix the problem demonstrated in the FreeBSD telnet client,
along with the telnet client in Solaris, SCO, Windows '95 & NT, DEC OSF,
NCSA, and others.
A similar change will be incorporated in the crypto version of telnetd.

is asking for trouble (sequential database enumerations can get caught
in an infinite loop). The yp_mkdb(8) utility avoids putting such records
into a database, but ypxfr does not. Today I got bit by a NULL entry in
one of the amd maps on my network, which is served by a SunOS master.
The map was transfered successfully to my FreeBSD slave, but attempting
to dump it with ypcat(1) caused ypserv(8) to transmit the same record
over and over again, making the map appear to be infinitely large. I
finally noticed the problem while testing a new version of amd under
development at the Columbia CS department, which began gobbling up insane
amounts of memory while trying to swallow the map.
To deal with this problem, I'm modifying ypxfr to watch for records
with zero-length keys and turn them into something less destructive
before writing them to the database.

The library search sequence is a little more complete now. Before,
it'd search $LD_LIBRARY_PATH (by opendir/readdir/closedir), then read
the hints file, then read /usr/lib (again by scanning thr directory). It
would then fail if there was no "found" library.
Now, it does LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the hints file the same, but then uses
a longer fallback path. The -R path is fetched from the executable if
specified at build time, the ldconfig path is appended, and /usr/lib is
appended to that. Duplicates are suppressed. This means that simply
placing a new library in /usr/local/lib will work (the same as it did in
/usr/lib) without needing ldconfig -m. It will find it quicker if the
ldconfig is run though.
Similar changes have been made to the NetBSD ld.so, but ours is rather
different now due to John Polstra's speedups and fixes from a while back.
The ldd printf-like format support came direct from NetBSD.
