Indeed - and quite possibly some of the existing preloadable shared 
objects and miscellaneous installed programs should cease to be part of 
glibc.  They could be maintained by the glibc maintainers and released at 
the same time, but set up to be built separately using an installed copy 
of glibc rather than as part of the main glibc build.
