	* malloc/malloc.c (_malloc_internal): Performance fix.  Move
	if statement out of loop.

	* stdio/_itoa.c, stdio/_itoa.h: Complete rewrite.  Much faster
	implementation using GMP functions.  Contributed by
	Torbjorn Granlund and Ulrich Drepper.

	* stdio/test_rdwr.c: Include <errno.h>.

	* sysdeps/i386/i586/Implies: New file.

	New highly optimized string functions for i[345]86.
	* sysdeps/i386/memchr.S, sysdeps/i386/memcmp.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/stpcpy.S, sysdeps/i386/stpncpy.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/strchr.S, sysdeps/i386/strcspn.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/strpbrk.S, sysdeps/i386/strrchr.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/strspn.S, sysdeps/i386/i486/strcat.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/i486/strlen.S, sysdeps/i386/i586/strchr.S: New files.
        * sysdeps/i386/i586/strlen.S: New file.
	* sysdeps/i386/memchr.c: Removed.  There is now an assembler version.

	* sysdeps/i386/i586/memcopy.h (WORD_COPY_BWD): Parameters did
	not correspond to used values.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/nfs/nfs.h: New file.  Simply a wrapper
        around a kernel header file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Dist: Add it.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile [$(subdir)=sunrpc] (headers):
	Likewise.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/local_lim.h: Rewrite.  Instead of
        defining ourself we use a kernel header file.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sysdep.h (DO_CALL): Optimize system
        call handler for i586.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/param.h: Add copyright and clean up.
