If the investigation indicates there is a bug (glibc failing the POSIX 
requirements), *please file it in Bugzilla*.

I remain of the view that *all* the LSB test failures need bugs filed in 
Bugzilla if not already present (if they appear to be glibc issues), and 
that the pages you link to from the wiki listing the failures need to 
include glibc bug links in the descriptions.  But at least, if claiming a 
new bug then file it in Bugzilla along with all the other known glibc bugs 
(and then maybe send a short note to libc-alpha pointing to the bug if it 
seems particularly important).
