Nope. So far only (that's my version which will be in glibc 2.2) is
allowed:
{"libc4", FLAG_LIBC4},
{"libc5", FLAG_ELF_LIBC5},
{"libc6", FLAG_ELF_LIBC6},
{"glibc2", FLAG_ELF_LIBC6}
- and you don't need to specify anything.

Give me some more time - I had a busy week and it's weekend now. I
wouldn't object reverting the patch but I'll think about it.
