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