It is not Hurd-specific, but H.J. Lu wants it there.
Also, dc.a can be used to avoid hardcoding .long vs .quad and thus use
the same implementation for i386 and x86_64.
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.

hurd initialization stages use RUN_HOOK to run various initialization
functions. That is however using absolute addresses which need to be
relocated, which is done later by csu. We can however easily make the
linker compute relative addresses which thus don't need a relocation.
The new SET_RELHOOK and RUN_RELHOOK macros implement this.
