This patch needs to be discussed on libc-alpha and consensus reached on the
change. Once we have consensus you'll be able to get an ACK from developers and
checkin whatever was decided upon. Until then this is likely to go unnoticed by
the core developers. Like in Linux and other projects, these kinds of changes
need to be championed.
