According to Mike Frysinger, this patch was removed from Gentoo in the
2.3.x series and didn't seem to cause any adverse effects. So toss it
from the patch directories for glibc 2.5 and up.
1 From http://svn.exactcode.de/t2/trunk/package/base/glibc32/make-install-lib-all.patch
2 Rule to install all needed libraries, not just the ones installed by install-lib,
3 yet not install programs.
4 Needed because we can't use the main install target, as we can't build programs before
5 we have the final gcc installed; linking fails because libeh.a is not present,
6 and glibc insists on linking programs with that library.
