It's a ~1200 page manual, with a single cartouche block in the middle.

I've been using the manual for 15+ years and I'd never seen that text.

Let me ask you clearly though.

Are you opposed to the removal of the joke?

If so, would you please state why?

As a GNU package maintainer for glibc you have accepted the responsibility
to maintain glibc, this includes '5. Recruting Developers', do you believe
that this joke helps or hinders recruiting developers?
