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.

It can be used to speed up the libgcc unwinder, and the internal
_dl_find_dso_for_object function (which is used for caller
identification in dlopen and related functions, and in dladdr).
_dl_find_object is in the internal namespace due to bug 28503.
If libgcc switches to _dl_find_object, this namespace issue will
be fixed. It is located in libc for two reasons: it is necessary
to forward the call to the static libc after static dlopen, and
there is a link ordering issue with -static-libgcc and libgcc_eh.a
because libc.so is not a linker script that includes ld.so in the
glibc build tree (so that GCC's internal -lc after libgcc_eh.a does
not pick up ld.so).
It is necessary to do the i386 customization in the
sysdeps/x86/bits/dl_find_object.h header shared with x86-64 because
otherwise, multilib installations are broken.
The implementation uses software transactional memory, as suggested
by Torvald Riegel. Two copies of the supporting data structures are
used, also achieving full async-signal-safety.

Consolidate all hooks structures into a single one. There are
no static dlopen ABI concerns because glibc 2.34 already comes
with substantial ABI-incompatible changes in this area. (Static
dlopen requires the exact same dynamic glibc version that was used
for static linking.)
The new approach uses a pointer to the hooks structure into
_rtld_global_ro and initalizes it in __rtld_static_init. This avoids
a back-and-forth with various callback functions.

This helps to clarify that the caching of these fields in libpthread
(in __static_tls_size, __static_tls_align_m1) is unnecessary.

After static dlopen, a copy of ld.so is loaded into the inner
namespace, but that copy is not initialized at all. Some
architectures run into serious problems as result, which is why the
_dl_var_init mechanism was invented. With libpthread moving into
libc and parts into ld.so, more architectures impacted, so it makes
sense to switch to a generic mechanism which performs the partial
initialization.
As a result, getauxval now works after static dlopen (bug 20802).
