Mike,

I'm sorry to hear you are having problems with my commit.

I was told conf/distro/include/glibc.inc was only used by Angstrom. And 
grepping through files recursively kind of proves it - there are no in-tree 
distros using this file. There is another glibc.inc in recipes/glibc, but 
that's obviously a different one.

I also ran a test build of minimal-image using minimal distro w/o any parsing 
issues.

It looks like you may have out-of-tree distro which uses glibc.inc file in the 
conf directory. If this is the case, I apologize for removing it and would be 
happy to restore it for you.
