In r11506, amongst the several upgrades including glibc was an

I don't recall seeing this mentioned, so I wonder why ? I've
certainly mentioned it on the qtwebengine page, and it makes

I was about to ask this myself - what happened with this?
For some of my systems, this will lead to fatal consequences if I don't
find a way to *safely* turn off CPU cores without the risk of killing
the system in the process. This patch made it a lot easier.
It's built in now.
$ ninja --version
1.9.0
$ ninja --help
usage: ninja [options] [targets...]
if targets are unspecified, builds the 'default' target (see manual).
options:
--version print ninja version ("1.9.0")
-v, --verbose show all command lines while building
-C DIR change to DIR before doing anything else
-f FILE specify input build file [default=build.ninja]
-j N run N jobs in parallel (0 means infinity) [default=6 on this
system]
-k N keep going until N jobs fail (0 means infinity) [default=1]
-l N do not start new jobs if the load average is greater than N
-n dry run (don't run commands but act like they succeeded)
-d MODE enable debugging (use '-d list' to list modes)
-t TOOL run a subtool (use '-t list' to list subtools)
terminates toplevel options; further flags are passed to the tool
-w FLAG adjust warnings (use '-w list' to list warnings)
