Hi! It's ~6am here and I'm too tired to file new bugs, I wanna sleep a little first.
While in general Gentoo "stable" branch is very stable, shit always happens. This time is was upgrade from 2.6.26-hardened-r9 to 2.6.27-hardened-r8. First issue: many perl scripts (including FastCGI servers) failed to start with segmentation fault. See http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261357 for details and ugly workarounds. Second issue: apache failed to start with segmentation fault. As I said, I'll file bugs later, but in short it's trouble with Ioncube and ZendOptimizer. I had to switch off both to run apache. I've no idea how it may be possible to workaround this without doing paxctl -m on apache. For now I just rollback to previous kernel (I think that will be more secure than paxctl -m for apache, plus I afraid new kernel may do other nasty things too). Resume: this upgrade kill both perl and apache. :( -- WBR, Alex.
