It looks like we need to change lfs-7.9-rc1 due to security issues:

This will result in a new patch for glibc. There are other possible
packages that will need patches. Please hold off any BLFS tagging for now.

I wonder if we should wait for 2.23 ? It looks as if backports will
have to wait, and might take some time (I only glanced at the inline
patch, but it looked "somewhat large" and the tests were in an
attachment to a followup mail.
I did some tags recently, thought I would check my mail before doing
the next batch - wish I had checked earlier. Do you want me to
alter all the 7.9 tags back to 7.8 (seems easier than 'svn revert' ?)
Don't make any changes yet. I'm doing a test build (now at glibc in
Chapter 6) and will probably commit to -dev in an hour or two. We can
change the tags by changing the entity, but I'll do that after lfs-7.9-rc2.
