Bug report comments from Carlos pointed that it should be fixed in x86_64/powerpc implementation, while I argued that it would better to follow what other libc are aiming for since this specific case that does trigger any particular issue. That's why I think it is not invalid. If the consensus is indeed to fix the x86_64/powerpc I will work towards, although I still prefer aim for portability.
