[BZ #21015]
* manual/install.texi (Configuring and compiling): Document
--enable-bind-now.
* Makeconfig [bind-now] (LDFLAGS-lib.so): Set.
(build-shlib-helper): Use $(LDFLAGS-lib.so).
(format.lds): Likewise.
[bind-now] (LDFLAGS-c.so): Remove.
* sysdeps/x86_64/localplt.data (libm.so): matherr relocation can
be R_X86_64_GLOB_DAT.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/localplt.data (libm.so): matherr
relocation can be R_386_GLOB_DAT.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/localplt.data (libm.so): matherr
relocaiton can be R_ALPHA_GLOB_DAT.
