    Nice.  I guess the next question is: what would ensure that this code
    only runs on a glibc which sets up the TCB in the expected way?  Is
    there a symbol reference which prevents that?
    
    __parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform isn't that symbol, as far as I
    can tell.
    
  

Actually, it is. It’s versioned at glibc-2.23. I added that in sysdeps/powerpc/Versions when I did the change. This is what we agreed with O’Donell and the others that discussed that patch.
