Update.
1998-06-18 16:40 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * libc.map: Add _dl_profile_map, _dl_profile_output, _dl_start_profile, _dl_mcount, _dl_mcount_wrapper. * elf/Makefile (routines): Add dl-profstub. * elf/dl-profstub.c: New file. * elf/dl-support.c: Don't define _dl_profile_map. * elf/rtld.c: Likewise. * elf/dlfcn.h: Define DL_CALL_FCT macro. * elf/ldsodefs.h: Declare _dl_profile_output, _dl_mcount_wrapper. Define _CALL_DL_FCT. * iconv/gconv.c: Use _CALL_DL_FCT to call function from dynamically loaded object. * iconv/gconv_db.c: Likewise. * iconv/skeleton.c: Likewise. * nss/getXXbyYY_r.c: Likewise. * nss/getXXent_r.c: Likewise. * nss/nsswitch.c: Likewise.
