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.

GNU/Hurd's readlink system call is partly implemented in userspace, which
also allocates a buffer on the stack for the result, and thus needs one
more path.

Old implementation of realpath allocates a PATH_MAX using alloca for
each symlink in the path, leading to MAXSYMLINKS times PATH_MAX
maximum stack usage.
The test create a symlink with __eloop_threshold() loops and creates
a thread with minimum stack size (obtained through
support_small_stack_thread_attribute). The thread issues a stack
allocations that fill the thread allocated stack minus some slack
plus and the realpath usage (which assumes a bounded stack usage).
If realpath uses more than about 2 * PATH_MAX plus some slack it
triggers a stackoverflow.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
