I'd just like to mention, that for the reasons I stated in my other reply, that 
if this functionality did indeed make it to the glibc level, the glib internals 
should still remain and simply wrap glibc if it is detected and use the glib 
version if not. Since we don't/can't use glibc, I wouldn't want to see this 
functionality disappear if it were supported in glibc. :)
