--- Comment #13 from Daniel Ng <daniel.ng1234 at gmail.com>  ---
Without this patch, my system would be broken. I am using uClibc-0.9.31 with a
PowerPC-based arch (Linux 2.6.30).

Without this patch, I would get errno==0 when read() returned -1. The code
doesn't handle such a case (and it shouldn't need to!) and so results in the
system locking up.

I've upped the Priority to P2 Critical.

The patch makes the system behave correctly.
