Hello,

Andrey,

Thanks for running this!

It's nice to know that we have independent confirmation of backwards
compatibility.

Could you please record these results (or links to them) on the 2.17
release page?

http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.17

Done.


The wiki engine cannot view attached HTML files correctly, so I have put particular compatibility reports on the external server (upstream-tracker.org). Whether glibc infrastructure have its own server to share such files?


Cheers, Carlos.
