[Bug libc/16332] New: Clean up sigpause implementations


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16332

            Bug ID: 16332
           Summary: Clean up sigpause implementations
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.19
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: jsm28 at gcc dot gnu.org
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com

glibc now provides only the POSIX sigpause function, not the BSD one, but it's
provided under the name __xpg_sigpause.  To conform to POSIX requirements about
being able to use certain functions without including system headers, it should
be under the sigpause name, with a new symbol version; the existing sigpause,
__sigpause and __xpg_sigpause exports should become compat symbols only.

It's probably safest to remove the sigpause entry from
sysdeps/unix/bsd/syscalls.list as part of this fix unless some config is
actually using that entry at the time of fixing this bug.
