The libgcc.so for glibc initiative

[H . J . Lu]

Hi, Folks,

Given the current libgcc.so situation, I'd like to start the libgcc.so
for glibc project. The goals are

1. Binary compatible with binaries linked with glibc 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 and
above.
2. Stand alone as well as glibc add-on.
3. Can be used to upgrade libgcc.so from an installed gcc.
4. Support glibc and glibc only.
5. Support glibc 2.2 and above.
6. Support gcc 2.96 and above.

It can be hosted on sourceforge or under glibc like linuxthreads. Any
comments?
