I have tested this, and this is present in the glibc package that I
just posted to the `debian-libio' directory.  That package has been
tested succesfully by Marcus.

If you'd like a glibc-2.2 friendly patch, I can send it to you.  Aside
from that, the only weirdness was:

-                                    exc mach4                          \
+                                    exc mach4 i386/mach_i386           \

I had to call that i386/mach_i386 instead to get it to find it.
