Indeed, in the state, the patches do not apply.
That's because the patches are done against the 'root' of the eglibc
repository, while crosstool-NG exepects them to be from the libc/ sub-dir.
In fact, the libc/ sub-dir in glibc (note, glibc, not eglibc!) is what
is used to make the glibc releases. So for eglibc, ct-ng also considers
libc/ to be the eglibc 'root', and patches are made against this directory
(in -p1 format, of course).
So, Bongseo's patch are right (except they were totally mangled by his/her
mailer).
My bad, I missed that before applying, and should have checked they did
at least apply. Bitten once, not twice! :-)
