I did test such a patch today as well since we discussed it. I'd propose this
commit message since we need to say why:

"""

glibc: Drop ppc sqrt optimisations

OpenEmbedded isn't an upstream or a patch repository. These are optimisations
which for reasons unknown were never merged into upstream glibc. We have no
active ppc maintainers and these patches are at an evolutionary dead end.
Since they are optimisations, there may be small performance regressions by
removing them but OE can't carry patches like this indefinitely and these
appear to have no future.
"""

Cheers,

Richard
