------- Additional Comments From nix at esperi dot org dot uk 2007-09-22 19:40 ------- This patch turns out to be a seriously bad idea, because no other libcs preserve the stdio buffer state on error. At least bash, zsh, and rpc.mountd in all released versions of nfs-utils are known to fail with this patch applied, with rpc.mountd failing in such a way that NFS service appears to entirely fail because no fhs can be validated. (Also several of glibc's own tests fail.)
Ideally you'd think it would be better: it's avoiding data loss. But a lot of programs are *expecting* data loss in this situation, and avoiding it makes them misbehave... -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4656 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You reported the bug, or are watching the reporter.
