Joseph,

what's the status of this?  With your patch we have a pretty severe
regression [1] on a number of major platforms (PPC, i386, ia64).

Can we expect to see a patch for this soon?  Or is it better to revert
the patch completly?

Andreas

Footnotes: [1] Not in the testsuite but in compilation of Linux kernel
and glibc.
