Update.
1998-05-14 13:25 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * inet/netinet/in.h: Add defines for multicast. Reported by Jeremy Hall <jhall@UU.NET>. * stdlib/stdlib.h: Add prototypes for __setenv and __unsetenv. * sysdeps/generic/putenv.c: Use __setenv and __unsetenv, not setenv and unsetenv. Optimize _LIBC case. * sysdeps/generic/setenv.c: Prevent unnecessary memory leaks. Define functions with leading __. * time/tzfile.c: Correct handling of global variables daylight, timezone, and tzname. * time/tzset.c: Likewise. * timezone/Makefile (tests): Add tst-timezone. * timezone/tst-timezone.c: New file. 1998-05-14 10:35 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * timezone/asia: Update from tzdata1998d. * timezone/australasia: Likewise. * timezone/europe: Likewise.

to the page size and install the correct length only for fclose() and
fflush() calls.

+[17] The sprof program to analyze the profiling data generated by ld.so
+ must be finished. It should have the same functionality as gprof
+ (as far as this is possible).
+
+[18] Based on the sprof program we need tools to analyze the output. The
+ result should be a link map which specifies in which order the .o
+ files are placed in the shared object. This should help to improve
+ code locality and result in a smaller foorprint (in code and data
+ memory) since less pages are only used in small parts.

+[19] A user-level STREAMS implementation should be available if the
+ kernel does not provide the support.

+[20] More conversion modules for iconv(3). Existing modules should be
+ extended to do things like transliteration if this is wanted.
+ For often used conversion a direct conversion function should be
+ available.
+
+[21] The nscd program and the stubs in the libc should be changed so
+ that each program uses only one socket connect. Take a look at
