Yep.  And I've looked at some programs/libraries which could have
caused problems and found none.  Thanks.

But we nevertheless means we need more testing.  It would be really
good if the distribution makers could run a script on a fully loaded
machine which finds all executables and runs "ldd -v" on them.  ldd
will report unknown versions or symbols etc.


I hope everybody here realizes how this change effects adding new
entries to Versions files.  Every interface which is not exported
because it is meant to be used by users has to go in the GLIBC_PRIVATE
version.
