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.

Implement strcat family IFUNC selectors in C.
All internal calls within libc.so can use IFUNC on x86-64 since unlike
x86, x86-64 supports PC-relative addressing to access the GOT entry so
that it can call via PLT without using an extra register. For libc.a,
we can't use IFUNC for functions which are called before IFUNC has been
initialized. Use IFUNC internally reduces the icache footprint since
libc.so and other codes in the process use the same implementations.
This patch uses IFUNC for strcat family functions within libc.
