I initially tried with gcc 3.3.1-r5, binutils 2.14.90.0.6-r6, glibc 2.3.2-r6. 
After seeing the thread on the stability of nptl this AM I decided to try 
re-emerging glibc with USE=nptl (famous last words). I sync'd and emerge'd 
glibc-2.3.2-r8 (with nptl). I dropped out of X and went to get back in when I 
started getting segfaults. I decided to bump gcc to 3.3.2-r1 and binutils to 
2.14.90.0.6-r7 (with the new glibc). I was still getting segfaults, so I 
emerged glibc with the new gcc/binutils and the segfaults were still there. 
Tried again by going back to glibc-2.3.2-r7 (with nptl) - no joy. I removed 
nptl from the use flags, re-emerged glibc-2.3.2-r8 and voila, everything is 
back to normal. In the process, I did try to recompile xfree but there was no 
change. I also use prelink - so somewhere during this process I ran a prelink 
-ua but still had segfaults. 

Is there a bug open for this that I should be posting at? Need any more info?
