+ The Glibc developers maintain a
+ <ulink url='https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/release/&glibc-version;/master'>Git
+ branch</ulink> containing patches considered worthy for
+ Glibc-&glibc-version; but unfortunately developed after
+ Glibc-&glibc-version; release. The LFS editors will issue a
+ security advisory if any security fix is added into the branch,
+ but no actions will be taken for other newly added patches. You
+ may review the patches yourself and incorporate some patches if
+ you consider them important.
