+       * malloc/arena.c (arena_get2): Really don't call __get_nprocs if
+       ARENA_TEST says not to.  Simplify test for creation of a new arena.
+       Partially based on a patch by Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@redhat.com>.

        * elf/dl-tls.c (__tls_get_addr): Optimize by transforming all calls
