My biggest confusion at this point is the libc_hidden_proto ()
definitions in <include/termios.h>:
/* Now define the internal interfaces. */
extern int __tcgetattr (int __fd, struct termios *__termios_p);
extern int __tcsetattr (int __fd, int __optional_actions,
const struct termios *__termios_p);
extern int __libc_tcdrain (int __fd);
libc_hidden_proto (__tcgetattr)
libc_hidden_proto (tcsetattr)
libc_hidden_proto (cfsetispeed)
libc_hidden_proto (cfsetospeed)
This seems... random?! which ones are declared that way?
The result in my case is that the alias symbols for cfset[io]speed() end
up marked hidden in libc.a, whereas cfget[io]speed() are not. This seems
broken...
