 This directory contains the version VERSION release of the GNU C Library.
-
-The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
-and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
-system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
-as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
-languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.
-
-In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
-implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
-In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.
-
-The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
-GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[34567]86-*-gnu.
-
-When working with Linux kernels, the GNU C Library version 2.4 is
-intended primarily for use with Linux kernel version 2.6.0 and later.
-We only support using the NPTL implementation of pthreads, which is now
-the default configuration.  Most of the C library will continue to work
-on older Linux kernels and many programs will not require a 2.6 kernel
-to run correctly.  However, pthreads and related functionality will not
-work at all on old kernels and we do not recommend using glibc 2.4 with
-any Linux kernel prior to 2.6.
-
-All Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.16 are known to have some bugs that
-may cause some of the tests related to pthreads in "make check" to fail.
-If you see such problems, please try the test suite on the most recent
-Linux kernel version that you can use, before pursuing those bugs further.
-
-The old LinuxThreads add-on implementation of pthreads for older Linux
-kernels is no longer supported, and we are not distributing it with this
-release.  Someone has volunteered to revive its maintenance unofficially
-for at least a short time for the benefit of those using Linux kernels
-older than 2.6, but a working version is not presently available.  When
-it is in working condition, we will make it available alongside future
-glibc releases.  LinuxThreads will not be supported.
-
-The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:
-
-	i[34567]86-*-linux-gnu
-	x86_64-*-linux-gnu
-	powerpc-*-linux-gnu
-	powerpc64-*-linux-gnu
-	s390-*-linux-gnu
-	s390x-*-linux-gnu
-	ia64-*-linux-gnu
-	sparc*-*-linux-gnu
-	sparc64*-*-linux-gnu
-
-	alpha*-*-linux-gnu	Requires Linux 2.6.9 for NPTL
-	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu	Requires Linux 2.6.11
-
-The code for other CPU configurations supported by volunteers outside of
-the core glibc maintenance effort is contained in the separate `ports'
-add-on.  You can find glibc-ports-VERSION distributed separately in the
-same place where you got the main glibc distribution files.
-Currently these configurations are known to work using the `ports' add-on:
-
-	arm-*-linux-gnu		Requires Linux 2.6.15 for NPTL, no SMP support
-	arm-*-linux-gnueabi	Requires Linux 2.6.16-rc1 for NPTL, no SMP
-	mips-*-linux-gnu	Requires Linux 2.6.12 for NPTL
-	mips64-*-linux-gnu	Requires Linux 2.6.12 for NPTL
-
-The ports distribution also contains code for other configurations that
-do not work or have not been maintained recently, but will be of use to
-anyone trying to make a new configuration work.  If you are interested
-in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see
-http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information.
-
-See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
-the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
-the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.
-
-The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
-found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
-and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
-have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
-corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
-following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
-the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
-already been corrected.
+Many bugs have been fixed since the last release.
+Some bugs surely remain.
+
+As of this release, the GNU C library is known to run on the following
+configurations:
+
+		*-*-gnu			GNU Hurd
+		i[3456]86-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on Intel
+		m68k-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on Motorola 680x0
+		alpha*-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on DEC Alpha
+		powerpc-*-linux-gnu     Linux and MkLinux on PowerPC systems
+		powerpc64-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.4.19+ on 64-bit PowerPC systems
+		sparc-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on SPARC
+		sparc64-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on UltraSPARC 64-bit
+		arm-*-none		ARM standalone systems
+		arm-*-linux		Linux-2.x on ARM
+		arm-*-linuxaout		Linux-2.x on ARM using a.out binaries
+		mips*-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on MIPS
+		ia64-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on ia64
+		s390-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.x on IBM S/390
+		s390x-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.4+ on IBM S/390 64-bit
+		sh-*-linux-gnu		Linux-2.x on Super Hitachi
+		x86-64-*-linux-gnu	Linux-2.4+ on x86-64
+
+Past releases of this library ran on a variety of configurations that are
+no longer supported.  Porting the library is not hard.  If you are
+interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers;
+see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information.
+
+There are some add-ons which can be used together with GNU libc.  They
+are designed in a way to ease the installation by integrating them in
+the libc source tree.  Simply get the add-ons you need and use the
+--enable-add-ons option of the `configure' script to tell where the
+add-ons are found.  Please read the FAQ file for more details.
+
+See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port
+the GNU C library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the
+GNU libc at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/libc.html.
+
+The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found
+in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated and
+contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
+have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.
+Please send comments on the manual to <bug-glibc-manual@gnu.org>, and
+not to the library bug-reporting address.
