de
         Wiel.  Closes: #485381.
       * patches/any/cvs-getaddrinfo.diff: new patch from CVS to correctly
         initialize internal resolver structures in getaddrinfo().  Closes:

tst-regex.
         Closes: #489856.
       * control.in/main: build depends on gcc-4.3 (>= 4.3.0-7), remove
         mips/local-gcc-ice.diff.
       * Update Swedish debconf translation, by Martin Bagge.  Closes: #492191.
       * Revert the changes to patches/hppa/cvs-atomic.diff, it was not the 
cause
         of the "tst-regex problem".
       * hppa/cvs-lowlevellock.diff: new patch from upstream to fix build of 
NPTL
         glibc on hppa.  Closes: #486589.
     .
       [ Petr Salinger]
       * debian/sysdeps/kfreebsd.mk: also use the bsm/ directory from kernel
         headers.
       * kfreebsd/local-sysdeps.diff: update to revision 2265 (from glibc-bsd).
       * Disable call to "GL(dl_wait_lookup_done)" in linuxthreads builds. 
Proper
         solution still have to be created. Stop crashes in mean time. See 
#489066.

       [ Samuel Thibault ]
       * patches/hurd-i386/cvs-MSG_NOSIGNAL.diff: New patch to implement
         MSG_NOSIGNAL.
       * patches/hurd-i386/local-msg-nosignal.diff: Forcibly set MSG_NOSIGNAL 
to 0
         until pfinet gets recompiled.  Only apply on hurd-i386.
       * Use gcc-4.3 on hurd-i386.
       * patches/hurd-i386/cvs-open_2.diff: New patch to implement __open_2
         and __openat_2. Together with kfreebsd update closes: #489357.
       * patches/hurd-i386/local-pthread_types.diff: New patch to drag pthread
         types from hurd headers.  Bump the hurd-dev dependency version
         accordingly.
       * patches/hurd-i386/cvs-fcntl-types.diff: New patch to include
         <sys/type.h> from <bits/fcntl.h> like on Linux.  Fixes a lot of FTBFS 
on
         hurd.
       * patches/hurd-i386/local-tls.diff: Resync with upstream.
       * patches/hurd-i386/local-tls-support.diff: Make tls.h also include
         <stdint.h> and <bits/libc-lock.h> include <tls.h>, like on Linux.
       * patches/hurd-i386/submitted-trivial.diff: Remove, thanks to updated 
tls.h.
     .
       [ Pierre Habouzit ]
       * Cherry-pick upstream fixes with respect to locale rwlocks, merge them 
into
         patches/any/cvs-strerror_r.diff. Closes: #489906.


  Petr and Samuel changes only change code that is only built on the
Hurd and kFreeBSD. This glibc contains the fix for the horrible glibc
FTBFS on hppa, and you can see on buildd.org that it indeed built fine.

  I would like to see this glibc life in unstable not be too long (IOW
not the usual age-days 20 we usually have ;p), because many packages
(like cmake) need a fixed glibc to go in.


  Note: we may have a -14 as well, because of hppa again, as we may have
        a fix for *context() missing and in return fixing dirmngr on
        hppa, but we've had no time to evaluate it fully yet, and we
        felt like fixing the FTBFS was kind of urgent.  This "fix" would
        be quite important, but hppa only, for an already "broken" arch,
        so it would not worsen the situation.
