+
+	* nscd/nscd_helper.c (wait_on_socket): New function.
+	(get_mapping): Use wait_on_socket instead of poll.  The former handles
+	EINTR of poll correctly.
+	(__nscd_open_socket): Likewise.
+	(get_mapping): Make sure BUF is aligned correctly.
+	(get_mapping): Use munmap on correct pointer.

 	* include/libc-symbols.h: Define macros for librt hidden symbols.
