No. For a glibc port to go upstream, all the build dependencies must be
upstream (generally meaning GCC, binutils, Linux kernel - and, likewise,
if one of those ports is removed upstream, that means the glibc port will
be removed as well, as recently happened to the tile port because that
Linux kernel port was removed). They only need to be upstream in the
respective development mainlines, not on release branches.
