Hi,

I am having problems with jemalloc 3.4.1 (currently we use 2.2.2 in production). I found that with jemalloc 3.4.1 function first argument will be changed if first argument is passed by XMM0 register. Compiled with GCC 4.8.1 (tested also with 4.8.2). No problems on Scientific Linux 6 (RHEL6-based), but it fails on Scientific Linux 5 (RHEL5-based). All of this is because _dl_lookup_symbol_x calls _realloc_ in Scientific Linux 5.

This probably makes jemalloc 3.4.1 and the whole 3.X.Y series not recommended for RHEL5 and RHEL5-based distributions.

Just a note from the EPEL* maintainer. EPEL6 has jemalloc-3.4.x. EPEL5 has stayed on 3.1.x for a while, and unless there are serious bugs that should be fixed, I don't plan to update it.
