             Bug #: 14132
           Summary: Get rid of INTDEF/INTUSE and *_internal aliases
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: roland@gnu.org
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


The INTDEF and INTUSE macros and related *_internal function aliases are an old
mechanism that is superseded by the libc_hidden_proto stuff.  It's confusing to
have disparate mechanisms for addressing the same issue (PLT avoidance).
We should get rid of INTDEF/INTUSE entirely and just use libc_hidden_proto.
