[Bug libc/5120] New: glibcbug still mentioned in documentation


The command

  grep -rl glibcbug . | grep -v ChangeLog

from glibc source directory still finds many matches [many in v2.6.1, and I've
checked that at least two erroneous occurrences persist in CVS].

Now that there is no glibcbug shell script (since 2004 according to
ChangeLog.14), these should be changed to reference
http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html instead (as per README).

For the po files, all but one match (in v2.6.1 at least) is spurious (i.e.
caused by out-of-date msgid).  You can use

  perl -e '$/ = ""; while(<>) { print $ARGV, "\n", $_ if /glibcbug/ && !/msgid
".*glibcbug.*"/; }' po/*.po

to find the one non-spurious instance (po/nl.po in the case of v2.6.1).


Btw, a sentence was munged in r1.115 of FAQ.in in the paragraph beginning
`plenty of time'.  The words `i?86-linux takes approximately' should be re-added
after the word `for' at the end of the first line.

pjrm.
