after I built binutils with the patches from ftp.ds2.pg.gda.pl/pub/macro/SRPMS/ I could successfully build glibc-2.2 where the ld.so is working now.
but .. some of the binaries and the shared-libs I built with the unpatched binutils are crashing with bus-error. I have to rebuild them to work with the new ld.so. But then they are not working with the old ld.so (2.1.95) anymore. If I rebuild these libraries I get a consitent system. As soon as I think everything is working I will release these packages. At the moment I have: ncurses-5.0 binutils-2.10.1.0.2 readline4-4.1 ncurses4.2-4.2 pam-0.72 apt-0.3.19 I am working on gcc-2.95-2.95.3 In my new system is at the moment the following packages. Most of them a working without a problem. I have a problem with apt because of the wrongly built libstd++. Also I think I have to rebuild xfree. I am not shure about perls extensions. None of the packages are linked agains libc-2.2 yet.
