2.0.7 is filling my mailfolders with obscure bug reports. Seems like nobody is bothering to keep it updated with any kind of bug fixes. > I looked at the cvs tree on oss.sgi.com. The glibc version is 2.0.6. > What is the status of this version? Cvs on oss should be equivalent to glibc-2.0.6-5lm.src.rpm which is the version which I'm still recommending for now.

Not yet stable and requires a binutils snapshot to build which also isn't yet stable. But we're getting closer and things are beginning to look promising. Ralf
