I guess there is a line where we must accept some minor bugs if we
want to release, so unless you need to upload a new libc, you may want 
to keep it for potato. 

Altough I woudl say it is important that the Alpha libc6 binary is
built with this patch, maybe be that is a case where a source only
upload with a 3 digit debian revision could be useful (we sometimes
use this convention for arch-specific fix).
