Either the SuSE folks forgot it to define in imakemdep.h or they have a big 
design problem in imake. In Imake, there are a lot of #ifdef linux blocks
which then use the glibc_major symbol. But since the host-gcc is a linux 
compiler and the cross-gcc is not, these blocks are compiled but the symbols 
are not defined. 

But since the build process worked well with the patch, I think we should 
just define the dummy glibc_major (as done before for gnuc_major) and leave
imake.cc untouched
