Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.6.ds1-10 Severity: wishlist Stumbling across the patch offered at http://penguinppc.org/dev/glibc/glibc-powerpc-cpu-addon.html
further discussed, for example, at http://www.power.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=262&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlig ht=&sid=e3b448b81cbcb798efb123526f511cf3 it would seem to make lot of sense to introduce such a patch to Debian unstable libc6, thus helping building up community and feedback for official inclusion upstream. I am giving it a try via apt-build, and I'd be grateful for any feedback.
