{ glibc, perl }:

# Small wrapper which only exposes `mtrace(3)` from `glibc`. This can't be placed
# into `glibc` itself because it depends on Perl which would mean that the final
# `glibc` inside a stdenv bootstrap has a dependency `glibc -> perl -> bootstrap tools`,
# so this is now in its own package that isn't used for bootstrapping.
#
# `glibc` needs to be overridden here because it's still needed to `./configure` the source in order
# to have a build environment where we can call the needed make target.
