Re: Bug#504699: (no subject)

["Michael Kerrisk" <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com>]

I'm the upstream upstream man-pages maintainer.  I'd entertain a patch
to improve the documentation, or if someone can give a clear, simple
explanation of what needs to be changed, I'll do the patch myself.

It sounds like some people on this thread have already done some
digging, and I don't want to repeat their effort from scratch.  Also,
reading the bug thread, it's not clear if, from the point of view of
the reported, things are currently "broken" on AMD64, but will be
fixed in a future glibc release.  I'd appreciate some clarification on
that.

Thanks,

Michael
