I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
The explicit error return value (without in-band signaling) avoids
complicated steps to detect errors based on whether errno has been
updated.

[BZ 15846] As discussed in the recent thread on my $EXEC_ORIGIN patch
and in BZ 15846, getauxval() presently has no unambiguous way of
reporting an error condition. It currently returns zero on error, but
this may also be a valid result for some auxv entries. As there is no
clear invalid result for all current and future auxv entries, this patch
sets errno (following a suggestion in the BZ entry).
This version of the patch also adds documentation and tests for the
value-not-found conditions in getauxval().
