It fixes that particular problem. There may indeed be other problems,
which we can only resolve by having ARC users running Boost based
applications.

Yes, of course, once the _GLIBC_MINOR bump is in a released version of
uClibc-ng, and we have rebuilt the external toolchains, we will drop
this patch from Boost. Do not hesitate to send such a patch series when
