On x86_64 systems, we need to filter out linux-vdso.so lines from the
output of the ldd program when determining the library dependencies.

SuSE has been carrying a patch for a long time to prevent a largely
theoretical race condition if a multi-threaded application adds and
removes error tables in multiple threads. Unfortunately SuSE's
approach breaks compatibility by forcing applications to link and
compile with the -pthread option; using pthread mutexes has
historically been problematic.
This commit fixes things in a more portable way by using
sem_post/sem_wait instead, which is an older interface that doesn't
require the pthreads library. Linux happens to implement
sem_post/sem_init using futexes, and -lrt ends up pulling in
-lpthread, but the advantage of using POSIX semaphores is that
applications don't have to be built using -pthread, unlike the use of
pthread mutexes.
The add_error_table() and remove_error_table() interfaces are the
preferred interfaces and locking protection have been added to only
these interfaces. I have not added locking protection to the
generated initialize_xxx_error_table and initialize_xxx_error_table_r
interfaces, to avoid adding symbol dependencies that would cause a
library to fail to work when linking against older com_err libraries
that do not export et_list_lock() and et_list_unlock(). Threaded
applications shouldn't be using these interfaces in any case.

This fixes a regression introduced in commit 4f2e8f19 where we
inadvertently disabled the use of dietlibc on all architectures,
instead of just on those architectures which didn't support dietlibc.

Test I/O debugging is incredibly useful for rooting out problems, so
let's enable by default, especially now that its overhead is only
incurred when it is needed.

Provide a C language wrapper function for io_channel_read_blk64() and
io_channel_write_blk64() instead of using a C preprocessor macro, with
an fallback to the old 32-bit functions if an application-provided I/O
channel manager doesn't supply 64-bit method functions and the block
numbers can fit in 32-bit integer.

blkid_devdirs was defined in blkidP.h and was never intended to be
used outside of the library. Since it no longer needs to be shared
across object files, rename it and turn it into a static variable.

This commit works by removing all calls from libdevmapper altogether,
and using the standard support for "normal" non-dm devices.
It depends on dm devices being placed in /dev/mapper (but the previous
code had this dependency anyway), and /proc/partitions containing dm
devices.
We don't actually rip out the libdevmapper code in this commit, but
just disable it via #undef HAVE_DEVMAPPER, just so it's easier to
review and understand the fundamental code changes. A subsequent
commit will remove the libdevmapper code, as well as unexport
the blkid_devdirs string array.
Thanks to Karel Zak for inspiring me to look at the dm code in blkid,
so I could realize how much it deserved to ripped out by its roots. :-)

I want to make sure the uuidd daemon is shutdown before removing
the package. Since the uuidd daemon is provided by the uuid-runtime
package, and I *know* exactly where it is, and I ***don't*** want the
script to be confused by some other pathname being used by the local
administrator, I specify an explicit pathname. In addition, given the
explicit test to make sure /usr/sbin/uuidd exists, it seems non-sensical
to remove the prepended path.

The libuuid1.postinst script doesn't really call adduser; it just
checks the adduser config file, if it exists. The lintain maintainers
agree this is a spurious warning, and it will be fixed eventually.

This override is no longer necessary since lintian excludes foo.static
binaries from the static binary test.

The syntax for /etc/adduser.conf allows spaces around the equals sign,
i.e.:
GROUPHOMES = no
We were previously asking /bin/sh to source the file, which doesn't
support the above syntax. So pull out the necessary fields via
sed/grep.
Thanks to Juan A. Diaz for reporting the bug and suggesting the fix.
