Hell, no.  We are using the trunk in rawhide and the same is likely true
for others.  It serves a good purpose: enable new functionality to be
tested.  Be it in the kernel or in libc itself.

And of course there won't be a GLIBC_2.4.1 version.

If you don't want to maintain a branch yet this is fine.  With the
limitations of CVS this can probably be easiest achieved by cutting for
the time being for every dot-dot release a new branch and on the branch
back out the few changes (Makefile & headers) which are visible.  That's
a few minutes worth of work.
