I thought you tried removing this and we ran into issues?

Regardless, I think this is reason to have this in one place where we
can clean it up. I tried to untangle the GLIBC_EXTRA_CONF bit that was
here until recently and that was more painful than necessary needing
patches to meta-intel and meta-yocto. If we get one good include file,
we then have one place to clean this kind of thing up and it stops BSP
layers having to do their own things badly.

So in summary I think this is a reason to support this change :)

Cheers,

Richard
