  The change is meant to avoid unwanted PLT entry for the fgets_unlocked
routine when _FORTIFY_SOURCE is set.

Why not the same for all the others?

I tend to avoid modifying things that are not strictly necessary. If that
happens to be needed on other aliases, then everything is ready for it, but
it seems I didn't stumbled upon a case where it was ...
When you look at it, the same way I didn't create libc_hidden_def/proto for
all the routines here (like e.g. __fread_chk) if that wasn't needed.

So there's a slight difference; the __REDIRECT_FORTIFY is essentially an 
assurance that whenever there's an internal use of this function, the 
alias will redirect to that internal alias.  The hidden_def adds an 
alias, which is unnecessary until there's an actual internal use and the 
hidden_proto is only a complement to the hidden_def.

In that sense, I think the __REDIRECT_FORTIFY should be for all function 
aliases, not just the ones that are currently being used.

On second thoughts, I think it's OK to leave it as only for functions 
that are actually referenced internally for now.  We can leave it to the 
localplt check to catch the extra PLT refs and then fix this up.

So unless someone else thinks otherwise:
