It's only broken with the latest gcc which adds some checks which weren't there before.

Yeah, it would be great to get the latest glibc on alpha. Richard Henderson has been doing a lot of work on it. I'll see what I can do about 2.3.2-r6. On a related note, anybody know what you have to do to make nptl work? What breaks when you enable it? Anything? Aron
