some heads up here

glibc-2.7 has sat in ~arch for much longer than i would have liked.  the only 
real issue holding it back is nscd.  i never use this thing myself, but on 
some arches (like ppc), it's known to eat your cpu like a dirty C-globbler 
(where C is short for CPU).  on other arches, it's known to just cream itself 
for fun and then promptly exit.

glibc-2.8 is supposed to be out soonish, and if nscd insists on continuing to 
be a pile, i'm afraid of having to just dump in a bunch of reverts.  nscd in 
glibc-2.6.1 seems to be generally OK.
