	* elf/dl-runtime.c (fixup): Don't go through elf_machine_relplt, but
	lookup the value of the target symbol ourselves and call the new
	elf_machine_fixup_plt.  This kills the ELF_FIXUP_RETURN_VALUE hack.
	(profile_fixup): Likewise, but don't fix up the plt.
	* elf/rtld.c (_dl_main): ELF_MACHINE_RELOC_NOPLT renamed _JMP_SLOT.

	(elf_alpha_fix_plt): Renamed elf_machine_fixup_plt.
	* sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_relplt): Killed.
	(ELF_MACHINE_JMP_SLOT): Renamed.
	(elf_machine_fixup_plt): New function.
	* sysdeps/m68k/dl-machine.h: Likewise.
