And your point is ?

It may not impact package built with gcc-4.5, only those that have
been rebuild since gcc-4.6. But anyway the generated code (whether it
is in m4 or in the generated auto* stuff) is bogus since the begining.

If as an application programmer I cannot get memcpy to copy past the
first 32bits of size_t (x86_64), I would call it a grave issue in
libc.

Same thing if I use autoconf macro to tell whether or not my system
support LFS, but it keeps on claiming it does not. I personally call
it a grave issue ... right ?

This is really a regression, package on 32bits arch used to support
LFS, but since gcc 4.6 came it they do not anymore.
