Update.

2002-12-19  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@redhat.com>

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/system.c: Define FORK only if
	__ASSUME_CLONE_THREAD_FLAGS is defined.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/kernel-features.h
	(__ASSUME_CLONE_THREAD_FLAGS): Define for x86 and kernel >=
	2.5.50.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/brk.c: Use INTERNAL_SYSCALL instead
	of asm.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sigaction.c: Likewise.
