Hi and thanks for your feedback.
I have just posted a couple of messages which explain my current point of view on
this issue, which, I must admit, I don't yet completely understand:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-11/msg00869.html
    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-11/msg00873.html

Perhaps, the page is mostly ok as it is (sorry Joseph for the noise!), apart of
adding a comment at the end clarifying that the required Library functions are
completely implemented by glibc2.2 and one at the beginning indicating that those
lines marked *only* "Library issue" and nothing else are reported only for
completeness but not really something of interest to the GCC developers since
*purely* library issues...

Thanks,
Paolo.
