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
Use the generic C memset/memcpy/memmove in benchtests since comparing
against a slow byte-oriented implementation makes no sense.

Drop realloc_bufs in favour of making alloc_bufs transparently
reallocate the buffers if it had allocated before. Also consolidate
computation of buffer lengths so that they don't get repeated on every
reallocation.

Keeping the same buffers along with copying the same size of data into
the same location means that the first routine is typically the
slowest since it has to bear the cost of fetching data into to cache.
Reallocating buffers stabilizes numbers by a bit.

(test_init): Call it.
* benchtests/bench-memset-large.c (do_test): Likewise.

Make the memset benchmarks (bench-memset and bench-memset-large) print

compare_strings.py script.

format.
* benchtests/bench-memset.c: Likewise.
The test run is unnecessary and interferes with the benchmark. The
tests are done during make check, so they're unnecessary here.
