I suppose it would be possible to downgrade glibc in bootstrap.scm, but I wouldn't count on maintaining a separate glibc for powerpc64le vs the rest of the architectures. Do you have a preference big-endian vs little endian? --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --uyqQH6igkwY9scqR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEoov0DD5VE3JmLRT3Qarn3Mo9g1EFAl/XPf8ACgkQQarn3Mo9 g1EqZA//al6eVmCrax75nQPknTyF9/acmLq9HZ2j0WNBc20SbZbElQ40eCK1I2BV qRfnFlwm5hftKXbQho55qndPDfU9eSvba5+/Pw+SM3jjs5pxhx/mHEZ+OAHfwsFi GQfNfXZFsRzjGyKN9TgtwcI4jtZ6y9GK7vJ8hR0jn/LXaMT8WbzsX7HfOyn7OhA5 D4fxLF2I9jcsbHbuP7Ky5S2VsulOTHTLUIVHJGdtZ5/d8zRZesFWPVS2On0yACZB GFIuOovDW9ZWR6ziy+7EZl0CP4+2ALplk2UD9nUTxet1KdiIBnVTkOAly0U2mvTq bOiuKT/Ve/igMsW7KgXaEXYurR3qbU0TROdPcM87QL9Pfk5+9+wN9Huz+JvMFh0I 8yVU19RY4bCV0EcYInzlng5/pN8xKwGfD5ytHaJ9FrUf10Prs0WU1jFBkPmC2Mve ZenMKpSr4r6KrLt9B6y57qzEu43lAmKMi9/RRYFLdXpD7J9GRrjX1taLHF2Ll+fn jz5u0p6WltgnoxPa7s+OvhPI3dzyiOsGsCNk5M/yZXV2WQtoGxXSr4Fk/wcAJlD/ BpRfFvalubwNcTjaCM9BfUAtF0OFtQ25r3wIOO/CpRZ183JSTN+e1THo5wOan9DC PFspJ9YMDOoxFkEpwdJoqHiyc1fzHXmEbyjJXOaVBcbu0ThGNFM= =feIi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --uyqQH6igkwY9scqR--
