The description there says:
The GLIBC DFP add-on overrides some of the base GLIBC files (e.g. vfprintf,
vfscanf, math.h, mathcalls.h, fenv.h). This release of the DFP add-on
overrides files checked out of GLIBC cvs-head as of 09-20-2006.
I previously noted <http://www.eglibc.org/archives/patches/msg00012.html>
it would be better for EGLIBC to patch the files in libc/ directly. That
way we don't need to track the existence of multiple variant copies of
files for every merge.
