If you are not an m68k porter, you should simply stop to care about
m68k porting issues. 

The glibc maintainers can add patches or pull patches from upstream to
fix some issues, but they are not there to replace missing porters or 
upstream writing or testing patches. And we are not going to add random 
patches not even test built on m68k to fix this kind of issue, as anyway
you would be the first to complain if it does not build or has side 
effects.
