If I may, I'd like to ask a question about regenerating the configuration files. I added a new source file which defines one of these tls objects in libc/errno/ and added the file to the LIB_SOURCES in errno/Makefile.am. I then ran autoreconf in the libc directory. nm shows me that the new object is defined in the symbol table, but I have also unwittingly modified well over 100 files (numerous Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, and configure files). I'd like to understand: Is this expected or desirable? Should I not be using autoreconf for this? Thank you very much for your time!
