Check to see if someone else did it. I know it works on Gentoo, for a few months now; but I don't know if it's just a newer version of glibc or if there was also a backport for some of the older versions. I'm using 2.3.4 pre-relases of glibc, so obviously I'm on a fixed version, not an old one with a backported patch.
Never do work you don't have to do; gpl code can be freely yanked back and forth. :)
