Joseph,

With these two commits:
http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc-ports.git;a=commit;h=d3b36017d43af570ca7f79e711749dd4ade76979
http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=6a43ec980c5a0500149ef37d4854eac0e270da6f

We have switched over to using /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 for ARM
GNU/Linux hard-float ABI builds.

Shall we make a NEWS item for this?

Cheers,

NEWS has previously been understood to be about libc, not ports.  We could 
create a NEWS file for ports, and list in it the numbers of bugs fixed in 
ports since 2.15 (which generally have not gone in libc's NEWS file), as 
well as new feature information.
