There are a few patches required to compile glibc 2.8.90 on alpha. I'll attach them; Please consider them for inclusion. Jakub, please also consider to include these patches upstream, but note: Some of those patches are already committed somewhere I expect.

Comment 4 Ulrich Drepper 2008-09-17 02:49:58 UTC
These are changes which have to go in upstream.  File the bug in the upstream BZ.  You might as well assign the new bug directly to rth.org since rth has to check in the changes.

Comment 5 Oliver Falk 2008-09-17 08:49:21 UTC
Reported upstream. See 'External Bugs' for reference.
Ulrich, how can we make sure that these upstream fixes find their way into Fedora? Isn't Fedora glibc a separate branch of upstream glibc or so!?

rawhide always follows the cvs head.  There is nothing special to do.
