We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

The fix for BZ #17273 introduced a single byte of memory corruption when
the line is entirely blank. It would walk back past the start of the
buffer if the heap happened to be 0x20 or 0x09 and then write a NUL byte.
buffer = '\n';
end_ptr = buffer;
while (end_ptr[-1] == ' ' || end_ptr[-1] == '\t')
end_ptr--;
*end_ptr = '\0';
Fix that and rework the tests. Adding the testcase for BZ #17273 to the
existing \040 parser does not really make sense as it's unrelated, and
leads to confusing behavior: it implicitly relies on the new entry being
longer than the previous entry (since it just rewinds the FILE*). Split
it out into its own dedicated testcase instead.
These tests were skipped by the use-test-skeleton conversion done in
commit 29955b5d because they did not have an `int main (void)'
declaration. Instead their `main' functions were declared with arguments
(i.e. argc, argv) even though they didn't use them.
Remove these arguments and include the test skeleton in these tests.
When mount entry contains only four fields and have more then one space or
tab at the and, mp.mnt_freq and mp.mnt_passno will be set to some specific
values as side effect from parsing of previus mount entry. It is because
sscanf(""," %d %d ", &a, &b) returns -1, but this case is unprocessed.
Values of mp.mnt_freq and mp.mnt_passno stays unchanged. This patch is
attempt to fix described issue by removing trailing tabs and spaces.
