Not glibc 2.10.2 / 2.10.1 -- *e*glibc 2.10.x.

That "e" is the problem: they decided to advertise themselves in the

That also means that the first patch is broken for non-eglibc builds.
Not very serious, since the version number will still be present, but
it's still an issue.

Given that the eglibc developers are doing crazy things like this, I
like the comma version.
