  From: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

We use the same assembler-macro trick we use to de-PLTize
compiler-generated libcalls to memcpy and memset to redirect
__stack_chk_fail to __stack_chk_fail_local.

v5: New.
v6: Only do it within the shared library: with __stack_chk_fail_local
    in libc_pic.a now we don't need to worry about calls from inside
    other routines in libc_nonshared.a any more.
v8: Merge #ifdef blocks.
v10: Use STACK_PROTECTOR_LEVEL to avoid renaming in files where
     stack-protection is suppressed.

	* sysdeps/generic/symbol-hacks.h [STACK_PROTECTOR_LEVEL &&
	STACK_PROTECTOR_LEVEL > 0] (__stack_chk_fail): Add internal alias.

I'm going to fold this into the previous commit.

Thanks,

I was tempted but thought that it might be a bit presumptuous for
a newbie like me to preempt Adhemerval :)
