Subject: Source of ld.so.8 (was: Debian Bug#473458)

----- Forwarded message from Justin Pryzby <justinpryzby@...rs.sourceforge.net> -----

The ld.so manpage seems to be introduced (not patched) by Debian's
diff.  Where does the ld.so.8 page used by the rest of the world come
from?  Does redhat or someone else maintain another page (separate
from both glibc upstream and Debian).

----- End forwarded message -----

Where do other distributions take ld.so.8 from?  Do they use the
version provided by Michael via the man-pages package?  Or do they
use a local version accompanied by the ld.so source code?

Regards,

	Joey
