Today I installed glibc 2.6.1 from devel. At first I couldn't install
due to the variable GLIBC_ARCH from DETAILS being unset in PRE_BUILD.
I couldn't find anything wrong and the only way to get around was to
set GLIBC_ARCH=i386 at the top of PRE_BUILD. After this the spell
didn't install any headers in /usr/include/asm-generic due to an old
symbolic link being there with that name. I deleted that broke link
(it was a very old kernel version) and the install plus all triggers
worked fine. No issues so far. I removed my change to PRE_BUILD and
the spell in devel works fine. No idea what caused that.
