Re: Upstreaming the glibc Hurd port


Hello,

So, after various coding style fixes etc. I eventually pushed htl.

This means that build-glibcs i686-gnu now builds fine.  Among the
remaining TODOs, there are

- making testsuite pass
- fixing the generated errno file thing
- sharing tests between nptl and htl
- sharing pthread.h
- C11 threads


Concerning the testsuite, perhaps we could xfail the existing issues so
that build-glibcs i686-gnu succeeds?

Currently there are:

- header standard conformity issues: These will be hard to fix.
- elf/check-localplt: There will always be PLTs to libhurd/machuser.so
  anyway.
- elf/check-execstack: We have nested functions which make the stack
  executable indeed.
- check-abi-libmachuser, check-abi-libhurduser: These actually depend on
  .defs files in gnumach and hurd, so we can't really define ABI files.
