libc-glibc: remove 2.3.6

This is an obsolete version which is no longer used by any sample (the only
user, the ia64 sample, has been removed).

It also makes the code path a bit complex, with twists just to accomodate
that version. Removing the version will make those twists go away, and
will ease commonalisation of glibc and eglibc in the future (hopefully!).

     4 The following makes it possible to configure glibc-2.3.2 on Mac OS X,

     5 where the assembler but doesn't understand the --version flag.

     6 

     7 Fixes the symptom

     8 checking whether ld is GNU ld... no

     9 checking for /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as... /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as

    10 checking version of /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as...

    11 <PAUSES HERE AND JUST SITS THERE DOING NOTHING>

    12 

    13 NOTE:  This patch should apparently be pushed upstream so we don't need to

    14 keep adding it here.
