I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

Only alpha and ia64 do not support __NR_umount2 (defined as
__NR_umount), but recent kernel fixes (74cd2184833f for ia64, and
12b57c5c70f39 for alpha) add the required alias.
Checked with a build against all affected ABIs.

Linux kernel architectures have various arrangements for umount
syscalls. There is a syscall that takes flags, and an older one that
does not. Newer architectures have only the one taking flags, under
the name umount2 (or under the name umount, in the ia64 case). Older
architectures may have both, under the names umount2 and umount (or
under the names umount and oldumount, in the alpha case). glibc then
has several similar implementations of the umount function (no flags)
in terms of either the __umount2 function, or the corresponding
syscall, or in terms of the old syscall under either of its names.
This patch simplifies the implementations in glibc by always using the
__umount2 function to implement the umount function on all systems
using the Linux kernel. The linux/generic implementation is moved to
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux (without any changes to code or comments) and
all the other variants are removed. (This will have the effect of
causing the new syscall to be used in some cases that previously used
the old one, but as discussed for previous changes, such a change to
the underlying syscalls used is OK.)
There remain two variants of how the __umount2 function is
implemented, either in umount2.S, or, for ia64, in syscalls.list.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
