glibc 2.1.3


I've uploaded the 2.1.3 release of glibc to

	ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/glibc/releases

There you can find the files

	glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2	(also .gz)
	glibc-2.1.2-2.1.3.diff.gz
	glibc-linuxthreads-2.1.3.tar.gz

There is no new crypt add-on since it hasn't changed.

This release fixes many bugs in all parts of the library and everybody
is encouraged to update.  Preferably through your distribution
provider since compiling glibc yourself means taking a risk unless you
know exactly what you are doing.

This release should be fully compatible (both directions) with glibc
2.1.2.  The only part which changed is the format of the files
containing the locale data.  This can be easily fixed by running the
`localedef' program for the locales which get used on the system (or
by running `make localedata/install-locales' to update all of them).
