Bug#352636: libc6-dev: Please define RLIMIT_RTPRIO and RLIMIT_NICE

[Will Dyson <will_dyson@pobox.com>]

Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.3.5-13
Severity: wishlist

Linux 2.6.12 added two new resource limits, RLIMIT_NICE and
RLIMIT_RTPRIO. In order for apps and libraries (such as pam) to take
advantage of this, glibc should export the definitions.

A patch for this has been commited to upstream glibc cvs.

http://sourceware.org/ml/glibc-cvs/2005-q2/msg00434.html and
http://sourceware.org/ml/glibc-cvs/2005-q2/msg00445.html

It would be very nice if debian could backport these patches into the
current libc6-dev package so that other packages (such as pam) could
enable these features in the near term without taking the somewhat
hackish step of providing their own definitions of RLIMIT_NICE and
RLIMIT_RTPRIO.
