Bug#273605: libc6: Should provide kernel AIO support (rtkaio)

[Matthew Gregan <kinetik@orcon.net.nz>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-16
Severity: wishlist

Recent versions of SuSE (e.g. SuSE 9.1, SLES 9) and Red Hat (RHEL 3AS,
Fedora Core >= 1) distributions provide a support library with glibc to
allow users to make use of the kernel's asynchronous IO interfaces.
This additional library offers a higher performing alternative to the
existing user-space only asynchronous IO support provided by librt.  The
kernel AIO support is made available via the 'librtkaio.so' shared
library, which is packaged an addon in the SuSE and Red Hat source RPMs
for glibc.
