OK, OK. I release -11 this night.
I experimentally add my cmov fixing patch in this release that has not
accepted in upstream yet. This fix also causes loading libraries
slower if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set. It may be removed in -12, or I will
make another patch to speed up dynamic loading.
#178645 (glibc needs to export __umoddi3 et al. on sparc) is another
item. There are no activity with sparc32. I plan to look it.
#175526 is m68k thing. Rebuilding it needs much time. However it
can be removed from glibc BTS.
