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:

compat_symbol_reference no longer needs tests-internal. Do not build
the test at all for newer targets, so that no spurious UNSUPPORTED
result is generated. Use compat_symbol_reference for
__malloc_initialize_hook as well, eliminating the need for -rdynamic.

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 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
* include/shlib-compat.h (TEST_COMPAT): New Macro.
* malloc/tst-mallocstate.c: Convert from test-skeleton
to test-driver. Ifdef code using TEST_COMPAT macro.
* math/test-matherr-2.c: Ifdef test using TEST_COMPAT macro.
* math/test-matherr.c: Likewise.
After the removal of __malloc_initialize_hook, newly compiled
Emacs binaries are no longer able to use these interfaces.
malloc_get_state is only used during the Emacs build process,
so we provide a stub implementation only. Existing Emacs binaries
will not call this stub function, but still reference the symbol.
The rewritten tst-mallocstate test constructs a dumped heap
which should approximates what existing Emacs binaries pass
to glibc malloc.

* malloc/malloc.c: Rewrite, adapted from Doug Lea's malloc-2.7.0.c.
* malloc/malloc.h: Likewise.
* malloc/arena.c: New file.
* malloc/hooks.c: New file.
* malloc/tst-mallocstate.c: New file.
* malloc/Makefile: Add new testcase tst-mallocstate.
Add arena.c and hooks.c to distribute. Fix commented CPPFLAGS.

* stdlib/msort.c: Remove last patch. The optimization violates the
same rule which qsort.c had problems with.
2002-01-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* stdlib/qsort.c (_quicksort): Do not apply the comparison function
to a pivot element that lies outside the array to be sorted, as
ISO C99 requires that the comparison function be called only with
addresses of array elements [PR libc/2880].
