You don''t need a patched glibc for x86_64 Xen as -ve segment offsets
aren''t a performance issue.

Xen and glibc
...You will understand that this is not very convenient, and will disable
more stuff than really needed.
Would it possible to add an extra flavor to the current glibc with the
correct build options ?
Please note that this issue is only available for i386 arch.

Xen and TLS, -mno-tls-direct-seg-refs needed?
Hi,
The Gentoo-Wiki about Xen suggests, to add "-mno-tls-direct-seg-refs" to
CFLAGS and to recompile the whole system. So it seems, NPTL will work
without problems (and without performance drawback) after that.
Sweet!
But i carefully read http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenSpecificGlibc,
and it says:
"On 32-bit x86 platforms, Xen uses segmentation to provide protection of
the memory used for the hypervisor. This results in some performance
issues since wrap-around segments as used by glibc need expensive extra
handling. For more information on how Xen uses segmentation, see...
