    IIRC, it isn't used in any 8xx code paths.

    Ha. Funny. The glibc powerpc maintainer doesn't want any embedded
fixes in the mainline. Last I checked, that was for 'the tools
vendors' to fix.

    "We won't work around processor bugs" is their philosophy.

    I went through a similar (unsuccessful) battle with the
amcc 440ep's "blrl" errata and gcc/glibc.

    It would be nice if the politics there have changed
(maybe they just didn't like me personally), but I don't have
much hope.
