Thomas, glibc is not currently supported on any non-GNU systems (and for the
sake of this discussion, NetBSD/FreeBSD/OpenBSD are GNU systems too, since
the only compiler that works there is gcc)
More, glibc uses so many gcc extensions that you probably will have a hard
time getting it to compile with any other compiler.
