Hash: SHA1

A missing start to a C source comment i.e. /*, causes compile errors
in any packages or source which includes '/usr/include/linux/timex.h'
- - The memory debugging tool Valgrind being a good example.

The patched srpm can be downloaded from:

This is not a security bug.  It is easy to work around.  If for some reason we
have to issue glibc-kernheaders for a security update, we will include this
patch.  Until such time it is a WONTFIX.
