libg/eglibc: add updated eglibc 2.15

Includes a patch to remove __builtin_expect test:

In eglibc-2.15, the build breaks in configure while testing
for the existance of __builtin_expect. It fails with newer
versions of gcc.

This patch is a modification of an upstream change in glibc
mainline (to be 2.16) to fix the following error:

[CFG ] checking for __builtin_expect... no
[ERROR] configure: error: support for __builtin_expect needed

     3 Raising the size of the hash table is a noticable win when linking 
     4 at least one large app.

     6 There was a patch,
     7 http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-06/msg00165.html
     8 to do this dynamically.  No idea why that didn't make it in.
     9 So this tiny change to raise the default size is just
    10 a stopgap for now.
