Given that NPTL support for Xtensa is ready to go (Baruch did actually 
also a lot of work), and ARC support is also ready, it would be great to 
get them in before any lengthy RC-cycle, where we might want to hold off 
adding large features to the master until the final 0.9.34 release.

So, I guess it depends on what state uClibc is in. If it's stable, 
couldn't we then just release 0.9.34 and open it up immediately for 
0.9.35? If it needs some time for testing and possible bug fixing, we 
should probably add all pending (larger) features, and have a longer RC 
cycle.
