Since we banned old style function definitions GCC is able to diagnose
function definitions that don't match the function declaration:
elf32_getehdr.c:78: error: conflicting types for ‘__elf64_getehdr_wrlock’
libelfP.h:498: note: previous declaration of ‘__elf64_getehdr_wrlock’
This happens on i386 because there internal functions are marked with:
# define internal_function __attribute__ ((regparm (3), stdcall))
Make sure all internal function declarations and definitions are marked
with internal_function.

- NEWS: Added note about new contribution and license policy.
- Makefile.am: Updated to GPLv3, added new files to EXTRA_DIST.
- configure.ac: Update to GPLv3, changed AC_INIT name to 'elfutils'.
backends, lib, libasm, libcpu, libdw, libdwfl, libebl, libelf:
- All files updated to GPLv2/LGPLv3+. Except some very small files
(<5 lines) which didn't have any headers at all before, the linker
.maps files and the libcpu/defs files which only contain data and
libelf/elf.h which comes from glibc and is under LGPLv2+.
config:
- elfutils.spec.in: Add new License: headers and new %doc files.
- Update all license headers to GPLv2/LGPLv3+ for files used by libs.

Sun in their implementation messed up the semantics of these functions.
To get back to source code compatibility they asked for a solution.
We simply add aliases for the two affected functions, named
elf_getshdrnum and elf_getshdrstrndx. The semantics remains the
same. Users of the old interfaces receive a warning for now. In
future we might make it impossible to link programs which request
the old interfaces (binary compatibility will of course be maintained).
