Please report such bugs upstream to the glibc developers as it isn't Novell's job to add such documentation.

Comment 2 Christopher Yeleighton 2010-11-10 08:11:07 UTC

I reported it here because a vendor recommendation is required for upstream glibc.

Comment 4 Andreas Jaeger 2011-06-06 13:26:27 UTC

A vendor recommendation is not needed for upstream glibc, just report it there if you want, please.

Btw. with the above report, you can easily send a patch to fix the issues as well.
