Hi Thomas.
Ok let's clear something out for this case.
First, i didn't like the hyperbole in the commit message, it's not 500+ 
failures, it didn't even reach 200.
Second, it's only for static builds.
Third, as i told you on IRC i'd look into it time allowing, this is 
voluntary work on spare time, so this revert didn't rest in happily with me.
Fourth, i never left any big breakage of my own making at RC/release 
time, we are breaking eggs at this time so to speak, so a little 
headsup/patience would have been appreciated.
Five, yes, i knew you'd break a ton of stuff with a revert, but again 
"fourth" no headsup on IRC or anything - there's a reason the whole 
gnome stuff bump was in a series.

As you probably know the latest uclibc bump broke powerpc entirely and i 
didn't see any revert there, so it kind of feels personal (i know it's 
been fixed recently).

Regards.
