The latest patchset is indeed complete as in, every function in the
glibc manual has a corresponding @safety note. There are glibc
functions that are not documented in the manual, and most of these have
not had their safety properties assessed.
Carlos told me he'd have the review completed today/tonight, so it
wouuld be appreciated if the release could be held up so as to include
the entire patchset.
