[Bug libc/14142] New: Do not use GLIBC_PRIVATE errno in miscellaneous binaries


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14142

             Bug #: 14142
           Summary: Do not use GLIBC_PRIVATE errno in miscellaneous
                    binaries
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Various miscellaneous binaries installed with glibc use errno at the
GLIBC_PRIVATE symbol version; nscd also uses h_errno from GLIBC_PRIVATE.  These
binaries should only use GLIBC_PRIVATE symbols where there is a specific reason
for them to be tied closely to glibc internals, not through an accident of
include/errno.h causing the private errno to be used.
