The 2.24 version of the GNU C Library (glibc) has been released. It comeswith lots of bug fixes, including five for security vulnerabilities (fourstack overflows and a memory leak). Some deprecated features havebeen removed, as well as deprecating the readdir_r() andreaddir64_r() functions in favor of readdir() andreaddir64(). There are also additions to the math library(nextup*() and nextdown*()) to return the nextrepresentable value toward either positive or negative infinity.
