Martin, your eyeballs would be appreciated for a bit on this.

I found however an LTP bug indicating the need to test for
s390 wait macros [0] in light of a recent bug in glibc for s390.
I am asking for references to that issue given I cannot find
any mention of this on glibc yet.

I'm in hopes Martin might be aware of that mentioned s390 glic bug.
