Cong,

Given that this is a user visible change could you please file
a glibc bugzilla bug in sourceware[1] so we can track the commit and so
that future users can reopen the bug to discuss any defects?

Then you need to add the BZ# to the ChangeLog, and whomever
commits this for you will mark it fixed in the NEWS. We should
also write up a NEWS blurb for this since it's the first explicit
header coordination of it's kind and we should highlight that
so developers take note and help us coordinate more headers.

Cheers,
Carlos.
