Ondrej, thanks for your contribution! Do you have a copyright assignment 
on place for glibc? This is definitely needed for such a large piece of 
code.

Also, your code does not confirm to our coding style at all, please read 
the following wiki page for details 
http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Contribution%20checklist

I noticed especially:
* overlong lines
* no copyright headers
* missing comments
* comments that are not full sentences
* wrong line formatting, missing spaces

This needs performance testing of all functions on a variety of 
architectures. Have you done some of that already?

Andreas
