ON a related topic
I have found that the -mm1 patch set breaks the patching of 2.6.X headers we
are doing in the glibc spell. the -mm1 patchset has an extra #define in
autoconf.h compared to the normal headers and the patch fails to apply. Of
course this can be fixed but it makes me actually lean towards having a
proper glibc-kernel-headers spell, with a complete set of headers, already
*fixed*/patched.
This will also help with the problem I foresee that every time we
change/*sanitize* a new header, the user must recast glibc to gain the
benefits.
Whether the glibc-kernel-header spell should be based on vanilla or -mm1
patches I am not 100% sure, i don't really know enough about the differences
but assume vanilla should be the choice. Extra features in the -mm1 patches
might cause a not-so graceful failure at a later date.
Not sure if I will find time to do this in the near future, or if one of you
will take the ball and run with it, but I thought it important to discuss the
choices and maybe agree on a plan so whoever gets the time to implement it
knows what should be done
