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
Use of strftime, a C90 function, ends up bringing in wcschr, which is
not a C90 function. Although not a conformance bug (C90 reserves
wcs*), this is still contrary to glibc practice of avoiding relying on
those reservations; this patch arranges for the internal uses to use
__wcschr instead, with wcschr being a weak alias. This is more
complicated than some such patches because of the various IFUNC
definitions of wcschr (which include code redefining libc_hidden_def
in a way that involves creating __GI_wcschr manually and so also needs
to create __GI___wcschr after the change of internal uses to use
__wcschr).
Tested for x86_64 and 32-bit x86 (testsuite, and that disassembly of
installed shared libraries is unchanged by the patch).
