I don't recall why the rev 1.2 hack is needed. It looks like Amd was
already using our local headers. I no longer have a FreeBSD 2.x box to
test this on, and this will never be MFC'ed to RELENG_2_2. So lets just
decrease the maintenance effort.
+ The rev 1.4 addition was taken from a snapshot previous to 6.0.7, so
it is included in 6.0.7.
+ The vendor sources are now POSIX [me harder] compliant.
When rtld runs the .fini section in a shared lib (C++), the code in
question from .../contrib/gdb/config/alpha/crtbegin.asm first calls
__do_globals_dtors_aux and then __do_frame_takedown. Unfortunately, the
value of gp after a jsr is undefined and in this case had changed from before
the call, probably as a result of calling code in some other shared library.
The normal calling convention for alpha is to re-initialize gp using
'ldgp gp,0(ra)' after a jsr instruction but in this case no such
re-initialization is done. This leads to a bogus value being read for the
address of __do_frame_takedown and a quick segfault.

value, it forces GCC to not optimize above this level. For intance, GCC
made with "WANT_FORCE_OPTIMIZATION_DOWNGRADE=1" is a good setting for the
Alpha platform when building ports.

All of the following are now valid:
.Rv -std f1
.Rv -std f1 f2
.Rv -std f1 f2 f3
.Rv -std
The last form is useful where the standard return behavior is applicable
to all of the functions described in this particular manpage. Look, for
example, at the stat(2), setresuid(2), and utimes(2) manpages.
The form with >1 functions is useful in a mixed environment. See the
fhopen(2) manpage for an example.
