[Bug libc/14117] New: Use the same set of header files for x86-64 and i386


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14117

             Bug #: 14117
           Summary: Use the same set of header files for x86-64 and i386
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: hjl.tools@gmail.com
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified

But I like sysdeps/x86 (and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86, etc.) as a 
solution for this issue - it would be best for all three ABIs to install 
exactly the same set of headers, which would work for all three ABIs, 
rather than having multiple copies of various installed headers, some 
versions of a header being biarch-capable and some not.  (There are some 
files other than installed headers that might be shared between x86 and 
x86_64 as well.)
