hi,

when I use valgrind, it shows hundreds of warnings related to glibc. here's
one example, from "valgrind ls":

==10023== Use of uninitialised value of size 8
==10023==    at 0x55605A4: (within /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so)
==10023==    by 0x5560111: (within /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so)
==10023==    by 0x4A1E62C: _vgnU_freeres (in
/usr/lib64/valgrind/amd64-linux/vgpreload_core.so)
==10023==    by 0x548CE84: (within /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so)
==10023==    by 0x548CEF4: exit (in /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so)
==10023==    by 0x40864D: (within /bin/ls)
==10023==    by 0x5476A25: (below main) (in /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so)

while that happens, I can't use valgrind because there's too much noise
besides my program's [possible] memory errors.

any idea of why is this happening? I reemerged =sys-libs/glibc-2.10.1-r1 but
nothing has changed.

cheers,
Crístian.
