2018-09-12reduce spurious inclusion of libc.hRich Felker1-2/+0
libc.h was intended to be a header for access to global libc state and related interfaces, but ended up included all over the place because it was the way to get the weak_alias macro. most of the inclusions removed here are places where weak_alias was needed. a few were recently introduced for hidden. some go all the way back to when libc.h defined CANCELPT_BEGIN and _END, and all (wrongly implemented) cancellation points had to include it. remaining spurious users are mostly callers of the LOCK/UNLOCK macros and files that use the LFS64 macro to define the awful *64 aliases. in a few places, new inclusion of libc.h is added because several internal headers no longer implicitly include libc.h. declarations for __lockfile and __unlockfile are moved from libc.h to stdio_impl.h so that the latter does not need libc.h. putting them in libc.h made no sense at all, since the macros in stdio_impl.h are needed to use them correctly anyway.
2014-07-27implement gettext message translation functionsRich Felker1-0/+44
this commit replaces the stub implementations with working message translation functions. translation units are factored so as to prevent pulling in the legacy, non-library-safe functions which use a global textdomain in modern code which is using the versions with an explicit domain argument. bind_textdomain_codeset is also placed in its own file since it should not be needed by most programs. this implementation is still missing some features: the LANGUAGE environment variable (for multiple fallback languages) is not honored, and non-default plural-form rules are not supported. these issues will be addressed in a later commit. one notable difference from the GNU implementation is that there is no default path for loading translation files. in principle one could be added, but since the documented correct usage is to call the bindtextdomain function, a default path is probably unnecessary.
