glibc and RedHat 8.0

[Tim Wunder]

OK, so RedHat has done with glibc in 8.0 essentially what they did with gcc in 
7.0. That is, taken a chunk of the development version and making a RedHat 
release of it.

>From the release notes:
     o The GNU C Library (glibc) has been updated to version 2.3 code base
       and includes the following major improvements and features over
       previous releases:

       . new locale model

       . performance tuned malloc

       . locale archives

       . rewritten standard conformant regex for performance increase

       . additional robustness in addressing multiple bugs


Thanks Patrick, 
Tim

It's what you learn AFTER you know it all that counts
