Can > you explain why you think a major number bump of libc is in order here? Because that how you play the major number game in shared libraries world. Anytime you change (i.e. remove a function or change a function's argument in a way that's incompatible with the prevous one) a librabry's interface, you MUST (in the RFC-mode sense of the world) change the major.
