I'm sure folks realize this, but I thought I would point out that we're
actually primarily talking about a different patch. To me it sounded like
this one, importing glibc's memset, was good to go, and I wouldn't want it
to be held up by the controversy around the other patch, how to deal with
libgcc. If there's anything more to say about memset lets say it here, and
if there's more to say about libgcc (I have a feeling there is) lets please
move that over to the other thread.
