Yes.

No, best thing is to discuss the vulnerability here on the mailing
list. Unfortunately I wasn't able to fix the issue by myself and
hope someone from the rather small community will step up.
So sent all dirty details to this list.

Hello,
I've noticed that with the uclibc-ng 1.0.39 the tests tst-cancel18 and
tst-cancelx18 are failing in NPTL-enabled configs (on xtensa).
Bisection pointed me to the commit
08d46f1ce21e ("librt: avoid compilation error")
which effectively turned off cancellation for clock_nanosleep.
Reverting it fixes the tests for me, and does not break uclibc-ng
build on nommu configs with or without threads support.
So I'm curious what was the original issue that mentioned commit
tried to solve (what arch/config)?
