oh, that's actually very bad news, we have no mean to rebuild
everything just for s390, all rebuilds must be done first in primary.
So the next rebuild can happen for F-22 unless primary decides to do an
additional mass rebuild after the new glibc lands just for us. Isn't
there a way how to make the revert compatible with the version we have
now? I think we can't ship glibc in Fedora that would maintain
different ABI than all other distros, or could we?
