Please go on, that's interesting.  You say that ``uncle Rollie'' -- as
you call him -- enabled you to state what the Hurd does and what not?
That's surprising given that you have explicitly been excluded from the
Hurd project with the Hurd maintainers consent.

Save that, ``uncle Rollie'' also was the one to tell me to register
patches we want to get into the glibc non-HEAD branches in the glibc
bugzilla.
