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:

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
* nscd/connections.c: Rewrite handling of incoming connections. All
are handled by one thread which then hands of the descriptors for the
real work to the worker threads.
* nscd/Makefile: Link nscd with librt.
* nscd/selinux.c: Pretty printing.
* nscd/dbg_log.c (dbg_log): Don't add unnecessary newline to
output. Let syslog do the formatting if debug_level == 0.
Update.
* nscd/nscd_conf.c (nscd_parse_file): Little optimization.

* nscd/dbg_log.c (set_logfile): Only save name of logfile,
don't open it.
(init_logfile): New function, open logfile if requested.
* nscd/dbg_log.h: Adjust protoype for set_logfile, add init_logfile.
* nscd/nscd.c (main): Call init_logfile after forking in background.
* nscd/nscd_conf.c (nscd_parse_file): Adjust for new set_logfile.
