Thank you, Carlos. I would agree that a Copyright assignment is required if I
contribute any creative work.

As it stands I've added a few lines to an array initializer in one
file and removed
more lines than I added in another, so I can safely say none of my patch content
is creative.

I am glad to say I read through once to determine how best to submit my
patches. It was very helpful in explaining the patch format and precise expected
content. I will make sure to read through it again before post my next
submission.

Agreed.

As this patch series represents my first contribution to glibc, I regret there
are preferences of the community I missed the first pass through. I'm
grateful for the constructive reviews I have received from Paul Eggert, Will
Newton, and yourself. I feel I've had an encouraging introduction.

Cheers,
James
