Re: [PATCH] Further steps towards GL(dl_dynamic_weak) == 0 everywhere

I've applied the IA64 patch, the LinuxThread cancellation patch, and
this patch.  Seems to work fine.  Thanks.

But I really think that the LinuxThreads code shouldn't receive that
much attention.  It is not necessary to have cancellation working as in
nptl to disable the special weak handling in ld.so.  If the same ld.so
is used for nptl and linuxthreads just add a hack which disables the
correct weak handling for LinuxThreads binaries.  Well, if you want to
continue to do the cancellation adjustment, feel free, but I think it's
really wasted time.
