glibc-2.4 changes

[Dan Kegel]

glibc-2.4's going to be a radical beast.
Let's see:
  * only supports building with recent gcc (maybe as strict as gcc-4.0, not sure)
    judging by the changes they made to get it to build with gcc-4.0
  * all non-desktop CPUs moved to unsupported 'ports' addon
  * linuxthreads obsoleted and moved to unsupported 'ports' addon; NPTL all the way
    (http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2005-07/msg00001.html)

I have a funny feeling they're telling everyone
doing embedded development to go use uclibc,
and stop bothering them with patches...
