This thread is getting pretty annoying rather than constructive. By
the mean time I can see the users of many db's running under linux
loudly complaining.

As a user of both products (glibc and postgres), I would like to see a
good compromise in both sides. For instance: postgreSQL will implement
it's own time engine in one or to releases (In a few months I can do
it if no one else volunteers) and glibc will revert this change for
one or two releases (I can do it right now). That way everyone will be
happy; particularly me and many others using glibc and postgres.

Regards,
Manuel.
