glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/seteuid.c
Ulrich Drepper 2698e32c2c Update.
1998-07-31 17:59  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@cygnus.com>

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile [subdir==misc] (sysdep_routines):
	Add sys_setresuid.

1998-07-30  Mark Kettenis  <kettenis@phys.uva.nl>

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list: Add __syscall_setresuid
	as real name for system call and make setresuid a weak alias.  Set
	caller to seteuid.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/seteuid.c (seteuid): Implement using
	`setresuid' syscall if availble.  Fixes problems with sendmail
	which expects `seteuid' to not set the saved user ID.

1998-07-30 20:09 -0400  Zack Weinberg  <zack@rabi.phys.columbia.edu>

	* time/tzset.c (__tzstring): Get rid of excessive cleverness
	which was causing stack corruption.

1998-07-31 16:41 -0400  Zack Weinberg  <zack@rabi.phys.columbia.edu>

	* argp/argp-fmtstream.c (__argp_fmtstream_update): Correct
	off-by-one in wordwrap algorithm when there' a space at the
	beginning of the buffer.

1998-07-31 15:45  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@cygnus.com>

	* Makerules (LDLIBS-c.so): Extend value instead of overwriting it.
