include/bits was simply a copy of arm/include/bits (seemed like a reasonable
place to start ;)  )  Given that that was not a good idea, I guess I have to 
build GNU libc.  So which version?  Does it matter?  Do I actually have to 
build it, or can I download the source and cut and paste the header files 
directly (I'm guessing I have to build it, but it can't hurt to ask!)  

I tried getting and building glibc-2.2.2 (go for the gusto, right?), linking 
it to the a sparcnommu uClinux kernel that I've built, but that gave me 
various undefined symbol errors (sigaction.c) and assembler errors 
(include/asm/traps.h).  So I thought I'd ask before I go trying to hack glibc
and the uClinux both in one day!


Oh, and thanks for the quick response.
