I'm trying to build 2.10; distro is angstrom, machine is calamari
(which is a powerpc).
As far as I know I did nothing specific to pin eglibc to 2.10, but
will verify that tomorrow at work.

PR bump as such was not needed for me as I was away for 4 weeks and my
previous version had an older PR anyway.
What I found was that eglibc-initial did not stage limits.h whereas
the version before the commit did (as is confirmed by the log, I still
have the older logs lying on my system at work if needed).
This becomes an issue when building eglibc 2.10 as configure cannot
find limits.h (in the check for gcc -E).
If anyone needs more info feel free to email me or ping me tomorrow on irc.

Frans.
