Moving to a more recent linux base, when?

Hi,

recently I had a look at the upcoming version of the PCB layout tool
eagle, in beta test at the moment. I am currently maintaining both the
international (cad/linux-eagle) and german ports of this tool.
This new beta version however refuses to run as it depends on
glibc-2.4 while our linux_base-fc4 ships glibc 2.3.6.
Do we have a roadmap or an estimated timeframe as to when a more
recent linux_base and their extra packages (linux-xorg and such)
becomes standard for the ports tree?

TIA,
Riggs
