We're absolutely not going to rebase master in non-rawhide.  Our
intention is to get glibc 2.20 release out before Fedora turns beta.

Yes, it is in what we call, a slushy freeze right now.  Changes going
in are mostly regression fixes and other fixes that should not have
any generated code impact.  There is however one change that the s/390
folks will find painful - s/390 broke ABI in 2.19 without a proper
justification and that is now going to be reverted in 2.20 (and in
2.19, but we don't really care about 2.19 right now).
