Yes, I did file a backport request to Fedora, pointing to this ticket.

I'm in the course of doing it to other linux distro, probably Ubuntu.

If you backport it to upstream glibc 2.18/2.19, I guess it will help the distro
maintainers (not quite sure as I don't know how distro maintainers retrieve
patches to glibc).
