libc/glibc: do not consume parameters when parsing them

Currently, there are two constructs used to parse arguments in
glibc backends, one that consumes args as they are parsed, and
one that does not.

Always use the construct that does not eat args as they are parsed.

     3 Raising the size of the hash table is a noticable win when linking 
     4 at least one large app.

     6 There was a patch,
     7 http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-06/msg00165.html
     8 to do this dynamically.  No idea why that didn't make it in.
     9 So this tiny change to raise the default size is just
    10 a stopgap for now.
