That would be a massive hack.
Yes, fixincludes is a massive hack. Yes, it should not exist. But,
let's keep in mind, it was invented to solve this type of problem.
Doing up a fixincludes hack is better than requiring that people
upgrade glibc. And, if that work is done, it lessons the impact of
the change and that would be a good thing.
