Per my email on May 24th:
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-05/msg00880.html
I have acks on everything except:
[PATCH rsa/hwcap2_v3] Implement AT_HWCAP2 version 3
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-05/msg00117.html
- Subsumed in latest patch on rsa/power8
- Waiting on Roland or others to ack.
- This has been tested on an upstream glibc 3.10 kernel with Power8
hardware to verify the hwcap2 bits show up correctly.

Add support for AT_HWCAP2.
I consider this essential for 2.18. I'll move to "Release Blockers"
unless someone cares to argue against it.
