As far as i know (Asked Ralf Baechle yesterday) the glibc 2.1 wouldnt be a problem as soon as someone fixes binutils. AFAIK the symbol versioning does NOT work currently ... We are stuck with glibc 2.0. The current version i have is a glibc 2.0.6 ... Yesterday i tried to build a xdevel but got signal 11 from the binutils when compiling the libgcc from the gcc 2.95.2preX ... It seems the binutils are essentially broken for mips/mipsel ...
