I'm not sure. glibc has major, systemic problems with their
implementation of cancellation, but there's finally an interest in
fixing them. Probably the question is whether piling on more
cancellation related bug reports would fuel interest in working on
solving the problem, or fuel frustration. And I'm really not sure.
