Just forcing "libc-glibc" on for native packages doesn't seem like the
right answer.  As well as the (perhaps unlikely) situation where the
build host is running uclibc, it might be a Darwin or Cygwin host which
doesn't use glibc at all.

I guess this is another reason why libc-* overrides should be used
sparingly :-}
