Minor patch(es)


Hi,

I've been slowly porting glibc to a new architecture (a cpu from Qualcomm)
and have a handful of "minor" patches, non-architecture-specific  What's the
best way to submit these? Here? or via a bugzilla bug report?  For example,
see the below:  (I'm submitting this in lkml signed-off-by style; I've
no clue if
this is appropriate)


The old glibc used to have uname.c in ./sysdeps/generic/uname.c
and so the configure check for "$uname" = "sysdeps/generic" made
sense.  However, the current glibc has it in ./posix/uname.c and
the search returns "sysdeps/unix" for this case.  A cross-compile
build fails without this fix.
