Hello, I noticed that headers contain optimized versions for gcc as old
as 2.8 or before.
To simplify code I would remove anything older than 4.0.0 (April 20.2005)
as it is not relevant today.
Is there a minimal gcc requirement to remove more definitions?
The installed headers should support older GCC versions. I think we
discussed this in the past (this year) but don't remember the
resolution, please search the archives,

It is in http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00545.html,
thanks.
That's a description for building of glibc - not for building programs
linking against glibc,
Andreas
