It has *always* been an option to compile Glibc against raw headers.
Nothing there has changed. LFS did exactly that not too long ago. But IMHO
"recommended" is debatable. Doing some analysis shows Glibc doesn't want
much from the kernel headers. So as far as Glibc compilation is concerned,
raw vs sanitized is much of a muchness.

As for GCC, it's a userspace application. Compiling it against raw is
definitely wrong. It'll more than likely compile, but in principle
it is technically incorrect IMHO.
