This is a known issue and unfortunately, not easily corrected. I have half a patch so far that will fix it, but have been unable to find the time to finish it (since the rest is all assembly and I just can't get enough time to do it right). > So, I decided to play a bit with gcc/g++ myself.

Well, almost everything is compiled [this is > unstable if it matters] but seemingly at the very end it stops: Get the glibc 2.2 patch from the Debian source package. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll send it to you. > I shall be truly grateful for any info regarding this, Good luck. If you'd like a more thorough description of the problem, I can easily describe it to you :-) C
