+ EGLIBC (Embedded GLIBC) is a variant of the standard GNU GLIBC
+ that is designed to work well on embedded systems. EGLIBC strives
+ to be source and binary compatible with GLIBC. Its goals include
+ a reduced footprint, configurable components, and improved
+ cross-compilation support. EGLIBC also includes some embedded ports
+ (such as e500/spe) that are normally separate add-ons of GLIBC.
