Fixes for 2.15.1


I've filed three backport bugs (13731, 13732, 13733) for changes I think 
will be appropriate for backporting to 2.15 branch.

I'm not sure about the appropriateness of some other changes for 
backporting:

commit fb59b3a4f54777652dc877a1df0fcc009b741d87

    Add O_FSYNC define to sparc just like other platforms.

commit 7c35ffedf144417ba2787322c7b75b4db5c3cb7a
Author: Thomas Schwinge <thomas@codesourcery.com>
Date:   Fri Feb 10 21:05:54 2012 +0100

    Fix x86 PLT slot usage for feraiseexcept.
    
    Then we're elf/check-localplt.out-clean again.

commit af850b1c978bdca648ef9fb141e785d75f74d9bf
Author: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>

    Use <> for include of kernel-features.h.

(for the second one of these, if the test failure appears with 2.15 then 
the patch should be backported).

Also, I didn't look at whether any Hurd changes should be backported; 
didn't look at whether any documentation changes should be backported; 
didn't look at what might be backport-appropriate in the ports repository; 
and didn't look at the question of backporting libc changes needed for the 
Tile ports.  Ryan suggested backporting stdc-predef.h because he wanted it 
for libdfp use, although that change would probably be outside the normal 
scope of backporting (it's not a bug fix).

Of course some people may have suggestions for other changes that should 
go on 2.15 branch.
