Re: [PATCH v4 1/5] ldbl-opt: Add arpg_error and argp_failure (bug 23983)
s/arpg_error/argp_error/ in the subject.
OK with that change. This is on the basis that, while this patch is
missing additions to libnldbl_nonshared.a, that library probably isn't
useful (it's for the case of -mlong-double-64 with compilers not
supporting asm redirection, but there is evidence that case has been
broken for a long time) and so isn't worth adding additional exports
solely for its use (it would require va_list versions of the new functions
to be exported, much like __nldbl___vstrfmon and __nldbl___vstrfmon_l
exist even though there is no normal public vstrfmon interface).
We should perhaps consider removing support for libnldbl_nonshared.a and
officially requiring asm redirection support for any compiler used with
glibc for configurations with more than one long double format (or more
generally for any compiler used with glibc headers at all), but that
should not be a requirement for these patches.
