This email is to inform you about the release of version '2.7' of 'GNU C
library' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can
be found at

http://freshmeat.net/projects/glibc/

The changes in this release are as follows:
More checking functions were added: fread, fread_unlocked, open*, and
mq_open. Fortification is extended to C++. An "m" modifier for scanf
was added. C99/SUS compliance was made stricter by not recognizing
"a" as a modifier when those specs are requested. New interfaces were
added: mkostemp and mkostemp64. These are like mkstemp*, but allow
additonal options to be passed. New Linux interfaces were added:
signalfd, eventfd, eventfd_read, and eventfd_write. Private futexes
are handled in the NPTL implementation. O_CLOEXEC is supported.
Linux/x86-64 vDSO is supported. SHA-256 and SHA-512 based password
encryption was implemented.

Release focus:
