It's a bug in RH 9: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90301 RedHat has a fix for the problem but hasn't yet released an update of their glibc RPM. You have two options to work-around this bug: * Use our gcc-2.95 build * Use the gcc-3.2 build with LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 (this will disable the use of NPTL) Or bug RedHat until they release a fixed glibc RPM. > One more doubt...

There aren't many differences between Sun's 1.4.1_03 and our 1.4.1_01. A Blackdown 1.4.2 for x86, AMD64, and probably SPARC will be available in a few days.
