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
Linkers in some versions of binutils 2.25 and 2.26 don't support protected
data symbol with error messsage like:
/usr/bin/ld: copy reloc against protected `bar' is invalid
/usr/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: Bad value
We check if linker supports copy reloc against protected data symbol to
avoid running the test if linker is broken.
