See my other reply, I know, I'm using unapplied patches that take
care of one aspect, that of new_pattern_rule().

But pattern_search(), as far as I know, is still an unsolved problem.
And it certainly dominates the glibc build time.

pattern_search() is more difficult to optimize because of all the
suffix handling and whatnot.  We'd probably need a longest matching
suffix trie or similar.
