add brk for m68k

NOTE: on uClinux-2.[45] kernels, brk works but is limited to slack space in
the memory allocated to the process.

Patch from Stefan Allius to make adding libgcc functions to the library an
option, to avoid the possibility of adding non PIC code into the shared PIC
uClibc library, thereby making the .text segment unshareable.

Patch from Stefan Allius to fix a compiler warning

Fixup compile on 2.2.x kernels when UCLIBC_HAS_LFS is enabled

Oops. I'd left an extra invocation of sigaction in there...

heh

Fix copyright

Correct license.

Patch from Marshall M. Midden @ brecis.com:
pipe.c for mips was broken with freeswan. No error checking.

Per discussion with Nick Fedchik, restore original LGPL
licensing to libc/inet/ether_addr.c

Patch from Christophe Massiot:

Hello,

When using uClibc to compile the modutils for a MIPS target, the linker
outputs an "undefined symbol: _flush_cache". After some digging, it's
a syscall only available on the MIPS architecture, and the _flush_cache
symbol is in the GNU libc.

Attached patch defines it in uClibc as well. I'm not sure if I made it
the right way, though, but it works for me.

Patch from Christian Krause:

I found a problem in uClibc in libpthread/linuxthres/condvar.c:

pthread_cond_timedwait never uses rt singals

uClibc has two implementations of pthread_cond_timewait -
pthread_cond_timedwait_relative_old using the "normal" signals and
pthread_cond_timedwait_relative_new usign the rt signals
(for kernels >= 2.2).

The function pointer pthread_cond_tw_rel is initialised with the old
function. In "__pthread_init_condvar(int)" this pointer is set to the new
function using rt signals, but "__pthread_init_condvar" is never called in
the uClibc.

The following patch solves this issue, so that __pthread_init_condvars
is called and the function pointer is always initialised with the correct
function.

regards,
christian

The original glibc sysdeps/mips/dl-machine.h source from Kazumoto Kojima was
under the LGPL. I noticed Steven J. Hill has accidentally changed the license
to be GPL. Per email with him, change it back to LGPL.

Yes. Feel free to change it.

Use correct names for dummy crti.o/crtn.o files.

Initial checkin.

Create stub crti.o and crtn.o files when UCLIBC_CTOR_DTOR is disabled

Fix scandir64 to not free the wrong pieces of memory (which could
and did cause segfaults) by adjusting the working scandir.c to
the the 64 thing. Fix up potential for mismatches between the
libc and kernel dirent structures, which could also cause ugly
problems.

Add a couple of tests

Stefan Allius noticed dlib_pic.o was not using XXFLAGS as it should

Patch from Stefan Allius to fix the build when
large file support is disabled

Add multiple-include protection.

Cleaner

Fix the 'make release' target

This seems to be needed or else apps will blow up.
