glibc 2.7-5ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

glibc (2.7-5ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Packaging:
      + External tzdata
      + Use external locale information
      + Addition of Niagara and Niagara2 optimised libraries
      + GFDL Documentation added back in.
      + Transition from /usr/include/ppc64-linux-gnu to powerpc64-linux-gnu
      + Use dpkg triggers for ldconfig
      + Do not die if extra libc libraries or symlinks found
      + Do not do a test run of nscd when starting
      + Only apply patches we actually use in Ubuntu
      + Use /lib and /usr/lib for amd64
      + amd64 biarch is i686, not i486.
      + Non-optimised i386 glibc is Xen-friendly.
      + Support sparcv9v, v9v2, 64b, 64v, 64v2
      + Add support for lpia.
    - Patches:
      + any/local-ipv6-sanity
      + i386/local-clone
      + amd64/local-clone
      + sparc/submitted-v9v2
      + hppa/hppalll
  * Debian any/cvs-vfscanf patch fixes LP: #178045. Actually add it to
    debian/patches/series (forgotten in Debian).
  * Stop setting MAKEINFO to :, which prevented the info documentation being
    built. See also 2.5-0ubuntu3.
  * any/submitted-rfc3484-sortv4: Return to disabling RFC3484 s6 rule 9 by
    default. As requested by Ubuntu sysadmins, we want this regardless of
    the Debian technical committee's decision.
