Agreed. If glibc no longer supports sparc < v9 and doesn't support SPE
FPUs, then it's an upstream issue, and we shouldn't keep old stuff
around because of this. People interested by those features should get
involve with upstream.

So: +1 to remove eglibc, and get rid of glibc 2.21, to keep only 2.22
and 2.23.

Thanks!
