Because it's NOT a bug in glibc, because what glibc does is CORRECT, because
it actually POINTS OUT bugs in applications which are portability issues and
can hurt future optimization opportunities (regardless of whether the
current implementation really is faster than before or not) and, most
importantly, because it is NOT our job to work around bugs in proprietary
software!
