I've checked this patch into glibc-ports under:

commit # a72cc2b29d00207fd8e2ee4612502339a14816b6

Just a general note on configuration; some of these processors have a
floating point unit but I believe all of them default to soft-fp.

GLIBC configure won't recognize --with-cpu=476fp even though the
compiler might recognize -mcpu=476fp.

If you want to configure a hard-fp build just pass --with-cpu=476
--with-fp instead and a new Makefile fragment will make sure that
-mhard-float is added to CFLAGS and ASFLAGS.
