Likely. It would probably be a good idea (IFF we continue the
discussion) to have a clear list of problems and/or behavioural
changes and possible solutions for any of those problems and/or
changes and then discuss the items that are unrelated in seperate
discussions. I would also like to promote the behaviour that libc
changes constitute ABI breakages unless proven otherwise.

Party on Wayne!
Party on Garth!
