It was created just a couple days ago. (I would have thought the
crossgcc mailing list was good enough, but it doesn't hurt to have
an arm-specific toolchain list.)

glibc only started using Bugzilla a couple months ago, it's not surprising
the word hasn't really gotten out yet.

Right, it just happens to be nearly identical to an earlier posted patch.

I guess the only thing you did wrong was forget the Changelog entry.
Thanks for posting your patch, hope to see you on the linux-arm-toolchain
list!
