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
Also fixed the following whitespace nits to satisfy the push:
sysdeps/alpha/alphaev6/memset.S:142: space before tab in indent.
sysdeps/alpha/configure:1: new blank line at EOF.
sysdeps/alpha/fpu/e_sqrt.c:126: space before tab in indent.
sysdeps/alpha/preconfigure:1: new blank line at EOF.
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/syscalls.list:1: new blank line at EOF.

* manual/argp.texi: Remove ignored LGPL copyright notice; it's
not appropriate for documentation anyway.
* manual/libc-texinfo.sh: "Library General Public License" ->
"Lesser General Public License".
2001-07-06 Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>
* All files under GPL/LGPL version 2: Place under LGPL version
2.1.
1997-05-31 02:33 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* io/ftwtest-sh: More tests.
* misc/tsearch.c: Rewrite tdestroy_recursive.
* libio/libio.h: Define bits for libg++-2.8.
1997-05-30 22:21 Thorsten Kukuk <kukuk@vt.uni-paderborn.de>
* nis/nss_nis/nis-hosts.c: Same changes as in
nss/nss_files/files-hosts.c (Always use inet_pton).
* nis/nss_nisplus/nisplus-hosts.c: Likewise.
1997-05-30 09:50 Richard Henderson <rth@tamu.edu>
* manual/maint.texi: ECOFF hasn't been tested in ages and I don't
plan on doing so ever again. Don't say alpha-linuxecoff is known
to work.
* elf/dl-lookup.c: Include <alloca.h>.
* misc/tsearch.c: Include <string.h>.
* posix/execle.c: Include <alloca.h>.
* posix/execlp.c: Likewise.
* stdio-common/printf_fphex.c: Include <string.h>.
* sunrpc/xdr.c: Include <string.h>.
* sysdeps/generic/memccpy.c: Include only <string.h>.
* sunrpc/clnt_udp.c (clntudp_call): Make fromlen a size_t to fix
parameters to network functions.
* sunrpc/pmap_rmt.c (clnt_broadcast): Likewise.
* sunrpc/svc_tcp.c (svctcp_create): Likewise with `len'.
(rendezvous_request): Likewise.
* sunrpc/svc_udp.c (svcudp_bufcreate): Likewise.
(svcudp_recv): Similar, but go through a local variable. The old code
used &xprt->xp_addrlen. Someone should determine if the type of the
structure member should be changed instead.
* sunrpc/xdr_rec.c (xdrrec_create): Expunge a ptr->int cast warning
and transform a nonsense for-loop to a closed form calculation.
(fill_input_buf): Another ptr->int warning.
* sysdeps/alpha/Makefile: Temporarily turn on -mieee globally. This
will last until I figure out how to build a parallel libm_ieee.

this to work properly.

FP mode to round to nearest, no exceptions as for Intel.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/setfpucw.c: Add copyright.
(rdfpcr): Use excb rather than trapb. Be more efficient about
getting at the fpcr.
(wrfpcr): Likewise.
(__setfpucw): Reformat.
* sysdeps/ieee754/huge_val.h: Change GCC's HUGE_VAL definition to use
a single DI-mode integer instead of bytes. This produces better code
on Alpha. Similar for HUGE_VALF.
* sysdeps/ieee754/nan.h: Similar for NAN. Add NANF and NANL.
